If you're not a socially awkward introvert it's difficult to explain to others how you feel in “those” social situations, but these comics by German cartoonist floccinaucinihilipilificationa come pretty close. From those practised phrases coming out wrong, to saying goodbye to someone and then walking in the same direction, it's all there. And if you want some more socially awkward comics, check out this this story!
We previously covered some of this cartoonist's work here.

Worst time was when I was at a funeral trying to tell the family how sorry I was for their loss.
Introverted does not mean socially in-adept. Wonderfully introverted people can treat social situations like a breezy art- they just may not prefer social jobs, BECAUSE being an introvert means it 'drains' to be in social company for too long. You need an unusually more frequent or longer periods with just one close person or no one at all to 'recharge.' There's the college definition.
How do you like your eggs? Umm cooked?..no how, scrambled poached fried lol hahaha
When they ask that question I often say the opposite of what I really wanted: "For here! I mean, uh, to go!" My mouth is faster than my brain. X(
I'm an introvert, and sometimes I have a very awkward behavior. This little bee seems more stupid to me, than awkward or introvert.
Everyone is either introverted or extraverted... So it doesn't say much about someone's personality. Most of these portray neurotic personality traits. If you recognize yourself in them I think you really should consider getting professional help. I don't want to put anyone down, but I am totally serious. if you avoid people and justify it with your "introversion" and think you're somehow special because of it and people should just accept you without anything in return, you may end up alone and very unhappy. Being an introvert doesn't mean you have to be a socially awkward recluse. It's necessary to accept and love yourself with all your faults, but if you have serious issues and you are aware of them, but are unwilling to change, I can't respect that. The progress that you will make in your entire life may not be huge and you probably never will be the soul of a party or a leader of men, the key is to want and try to better yourself. Otherwise, whats the point of these insights?
I think these comics portray socially awkward people (like me!) Rather than introverts. I'm not an introvert but suffer from all these experiences.
People shouldn't feel bad about these things because they happen to everyone. Yep, you're normal :)
Yes happens if you're an introverted (and I suppose you're one of us), but belive or not, but the mayority of the population not like us.... (though these things happens to them, but not like an everyday like routine) And introverts not means shy....an extrovert can be shy as well, just for them it is a little bit easier to grow out from their shell, then for us.....there are introverts who can really act like an extrovert for days, but then they need some introvert activity (passivity), to regenerate.
EXACTLY Nagytika. One of these things happen to me, I can't stop thinking about it for a about a week, the incident plays over and over again in my head so I can't sleep. Then again I suffer from anxiety too. xD But whenever I have a day at work, or a day at college, I'm so mentally drained that I feel depressed after and need a lot of alone time to get my "strength" back from being around people.
Exactly! I have no trouble communicating with others, and I've been described as "naturally social", but I more often than not prefer being just by myself, thinking, reading etc. And if one believes in personality tests, there are many more "introvert types" than just one :)
Spot on. It can make loneliness hard, because we only get more awkward trying to not be that way.
Thank you!
SO. MUCH. INFO.
Who said being an introvert was abnormal?
Introverts are normal.. Wth
Why does he grow a big nose at the end of the comics?
Only introverts will know !
Im an introvert but I dont get the nose part :c
Because it drives him to drink?
I would like to give the cartoonist a big hug, but I'd probably accidentally step on his foot, and then feel like a klutzy moron for the rest of my life...
I hate the fact that introvert is synonymous with social anxiety. That is not what introvert means. Introvert is just someone who does not seek out social situations because they find them draining and prefer to be alone more. I have zero social anxiety and none of these apply to me, but I am an introvert because the best time I have is hanging out alone. I have lots of friends but, when I spent time with them, there's a definite clock on how long that social engagement will last because I will get tired of being with people and want to be somewhere where I can be alone.
Being someone who has social anxiety (but likes people), I also don't like how everyone mix introverts with social anxious people.
Apparently when you get really awkward you grow a nose.
Where is that thing when you analyze some conversation in your mind for hours? Or is it only me?
8 years ? pff. i salp my self in the face sometimes for stuff that happened when i was 16 .i'm 39 now
To be honest whoever made these have no idea what an introvert is. Most of these are signs of extroverts even. And introverts dosent have to be socially awkward either. They can be, but it dosent define them. But extroverts can be socially awkward too. Again dosent define.
So, introverts grow a nose when they feel uncomfortable.
that does not define a person as introspective ... only defines those who believe that their own false-selves( mind based sense of self, or ego) are in fact themselves ... to believe that, your human form, your mammal , your mental self , is your totality... then, what people see or think of you, is truly important... and a superficial view of life , makes you hate whatever you see in the mirror, or fall in love with it...
I am an introvert and I was crying from laffing.
These describe social anxiety, not introversion.
Serial killers experience the same sort of problems
Introvert isn't the same as socially awkward... Just saying.
I think you are confusing being an introvert with having social anxiety.
hahahhaha this is super funny :D
Exactly
Third time I've read this comic, it makes me cry with laughter! Love it!
lol
Stupid. Sorry.
#1 is so me :(
I would like to give this cartoonist a big hug for making me laugh (and cringe), but I'd probably step on his foot and feel like a complete moron for the rest of my life, lol
my husband is always like this, we hang out sleeping, he has a very small circle of friends. Parties are too exhausting for him. At first I thought he is not normal, only to find out that he's an introvert. Now I understood him and we're happy living together with our baby.
Some of these were a little confusing but still funny.
