Guy 1: Dude, I took a massive dump today, and some guy was next to me. We both finished at the same time and washed out hands in silence.
Guy 2: Shawkward!

Person 1: "hey, did you think it was weird how that dude showed no emotion whatsoever after literally breaking that storefront window with his fists when they kicked him out? How could he not know how awkward that was?"
Person 2: "It was shawkward, bro. It'll hit him once the shock of shattering a huge window pane finally wears off."
P1: "?.....? 'shawkward' is not a word. You just made that up off the cuff. Who do you think - *sharts mid-sentence* - you are, Webster Miriam?"
P2: "??....?? You mean Miriam Webster the dictionary publishing company? Besides, literally every word was made up by someone at some point, right?"
P1: *Pauses with a blank stare* "... I gotta go." *Leaves abruptly*
P2: *Says to self* "Shawkward"
