the best thing to do in a quiet awkward room is awkward animals.
i.e. awkward turtle, awkward elephant, awkward octopus.

never do i take converse in the art of mathematics.

I pride myself in saying the most awkward things. When the room gets quite I try to say things really loud like "So me and a buddy ended up double teaming that Ho... ho boy i said that a bit loud..."
Or when my buddys ex-girlfriend showed up at one of our parties. "Hey Jason, have you met Brittany?" as I introduce them to each other.

Totally agree with this thread and I love situations like that prime number one. The worst moment I had when the room goes silent while someone's talking was when a friend and I were at a crowded loud bar. He was telling me a story about this chick he had hooked up a few nights ago.
Anyway, long story short, he's telling me about one part (nearly shouting because the bar is so loud) and here's how it goes: "So then she says to me" song ends and any kind of sound dies "I REALLY WANT TO SUCK YOUR COCK!!" Everyone spun around so fast to look at the two queers you could literaly hear that whooshing sounds of all their heads simultaneously turning.
I also hate it when people say "Anyways, long story short" like I did but whatever...

Maybe this is because you don't take the drugs...?
I converse about mathematics at parties, as well as anything else that comes to mind. There's nothing un-cool about 31 being prime.

If I'm out at dinner with 6 or more people and things go quiet I will occasionally subtely gather everyone's eyes as if I have something interesting to say, lift up my shirt some, and say
"LOOOOOOK AT MY BELLY"
You can use it on the same group, about once every 6 months or so is best. Clearly you and they should be drinking. If you're out with 6 or more people and you aren't drinking, you should just leave.

Not quite the same thing, but I had a nightmare like this a while back. I am called at work to go see my Director, we sit down and he starts talking - he asks me this question about some figures I am supposed to have put together - when the whole floor goes quiet and my mobile phone blares out it's Terrence and Philip from South Park ringtone of "Shut your fucking face uncle fucker". luckily I think I managed to subdue the tone in my pocket enough to prevent him hearing it properly, but I'm sure my rating plummetted that day.

Eydge Milligan, the 11-year-old Palmerston North schoolgirl who needs surgery to move her anus so she can go to the toilet normally, will get her operation in Cincinnati in February.
The Kairanga Lions Club and Rotary Clubs of Palmerston North have taken over the fundraising to ensure the family can afford the trip.
"I was just so overwhelmed, I burst into tears," says mum Chrissy Davis, who has spearheaded a six- month campaign that has raised $61,000 so far toward Eydge's hospital costs.
"They told me I don't have to stand outside Bunnings rattling a bucket any more.
"It's a huge relief."
And Eydge is ecstatic that at last she's getting the operation that will free her from daily abdominal irrigation and the embarrassment of bowel leaks and accidents.
"She's just so excited, she's telling everyone.
"But she's sensible, too. Her friends told her that they can't wait to see the new Eydge, but she's told them she'll still be the same girl. Just parts of her will be new."
Lions appeal coordinator Malcolm Plimmer said his club formally endorsed the decision to take over running the appeal this week, and will launch an intensive bid to attract the last $35,000 early in the New Year.
"It was a unanimous decision by our club to get behind this. I don't think I've ever worked on such a rewarding project.
"The family have done a marvellous job to get this far. We've told them they can stop now, and go home and start packing."
Mr Plimmer said the clubs had raised the target for fundraising to $100,000 to cover airfares and other living expenses, an offer Ms Davis says has quite blown her away. "That was something we never felt we should seek assistance for, but it is out of our depth, to be honest."
Ms Davis will travel as Eydge's principal caregiver, and will also take baby brother Isyle. Big sister Ash will go to look after him while Ms Davis is at Eydge's bedside, and the most exciting part for Eydge is that her twin sister, Djoram, will be able to go, too.
"It means they won't have to spend their birthday apart, on February 24."
Dad Stuart will be left to hold the fort at home, in charge of the five other children for four to six weeks.
Ms Davis said having a date set for the operation means Eydge would probably be able to forgo having a colostomy in Wellington in January that had been planned as an interim measure before getting the corrective surgery that is not available yet in New Zealand.
The Colorectal Centre for Children at Cincinnati Children's Hospital is recognised as a world leader and surgeons are donating their expertise for free.
Ms Davis said the family is looking forward to a relatively quiet Christmas now they are free of the burden of raising the money themselves.
Eydge and the support crew are due to fly out of New Zealand in the last week of January.
"We just can't thank people enough. This is something that, a year ago, we could not even contemplate.
"There is still a long way to go, but it is a huge relief to have the effort of fundraising taken off our shoulders. It's just fantastic how fast things are moving."

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
