The Awkward Conversation
I was at a party last night and started chatting with a guy who was really into philosophy. After a few minutes, he asked, “So, what’s your take on existentialism?”
I stared at him blankly and said, “Well, I think it’s about questioning everything, including why I’m standing here talking to you.”
He chuckled nervously and said, “I mean, really? You just said that to be ironic, right?”
I replied, “Oh no, I’m dead serious. You’re actually making me reconsider my life choices, especially this conversation.”
It got awkward really fast. He started looking for the nearest exit, and I had to pretend I didn’t just kill the vibe.
