You may have all noticed that lately every comedy from sitcoms to movies seems to be banking on "the awkward" as the go to (or in some cases only) source of comedy. To me, it's old now. There's only so much poorly written dialog one can take before it just gets annoying. I feel this trend has worn out it's welcome.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
