Some like to add their own spunk to the word, resulting in disasters such as 'awk sauce' and even 'awklate milk'.

"That awkward moment when your friends tell your crush how much you talk about him." "Thats a nice glass of awklate milk, bro." "Yeah buddy." "So today I texted my friend, and they didn't text back." "Woah dude, that's so awk..." "I know."
