1. used to describe a situtation in which two people of the opposite sex are said to be an "item," when they are actually just really flirtatious. the ex-boyfriend of the girl and the boy's best friend should be standing directly behind them
2. borderline illegal
Person 1: Something really awkward happened this morning.
Person 2: Oh man, I wasn't there.
Person 1: Oh it was good!
Person 2: Did you videotape it?
Person 1: Ahh, I should have. Yeah, that definitely wouldn't have been awkward, weird, or stalkerish at all.

an uncomfertable or strainge moment in a scocal situation resulting from the meating of sketch and prude. the balence between the two contrasting partys creates the awkard fealing. in any awkard situation you should be able to identify the sketch and the prude.
when the forigin extange student walkied in on the two girls changing and just stood there, it was such an awkward situation. he was the sketch for being there and not leaving, and they were the prudes because they were uncomfterable about being naked.
