I busted myself the other day in Ancient History.
"Good evening. This is a diversion." (p. 123)Made me snort while the teacher was nearby.

Of course he had to show the whole class.
Awkward anyone?

That's not awkward

That's advertising! Thanks!

Does having a near-seizure at the sight of panel six of the latest page at a friends house count?
Honestly the most awkward LFG moment I've had wasn't with the comic itself but a piece of fanart.
The first time I came across Kilt Richard, I was at my cousins house. She and a friend of hers we're trying to take a college test online on the computer directly across the room, and apparently my hysterical laughter/horrified squeals/choking sobs/dry heavings were distracting them.
I don't remember what their reaction to the image was.
I don't remember much from that day.

I tend to giggle in public whenever I remember something funny.

Who doesn't?
I have had a few moments in class where I will burst out laughing at the latest comic. Or the first time I saw Rabie's drawing of cale and chibi Richard ... who knew saying oh god out loud would make so many people stare at you?

I have my school trained to completely ignore me and my crazy ways. Plus, ever since the teachers stopped correcting me for thinking out load everyone's grades in my classes have sky rocketed.

I smirk or laugh at dinner sometimes when I remember bits of the comic, especially if there's been a new update. My family just stares at me, as none of them read it. -shrug- Not very awkward, but the looks they give me are pretty entertaining.
My other moments are when I'm wearing my Richard shirt and this guy I know points out to everyone how I find a burned down orphanage amusing, which brings up some of my other, odd, qualities.

The shop, it's Richard with the burned down orphanage.
Of course, I still everyone about the comic if they see me in it.

I remember customizing my sports day tee into something
more Richard-tastic,but no one got the reference...
And I sometimes have a hard time holding my laughter
when certain LFG panels pop up in mah head.

Some of you complaining awkward moments in school? Bah! If I were in class and the teacher were to show everyone (ergo: advertise :0), I would bellow with happiness and brag my vast knowledge (compared to them) of that which is Richard.
Looking at me funny? Hah, I'd call it ignorance.

Wait... how do you people read an online comic while being in school, in class even???
Isn't that terribly rude to surf the web while the teacher is trying to, well, teach?

We're talking about frickin'
Odysseus. I
know what happened! And then we're going onto the story of
Medea, which I also know.
I'd listen, if I was to learn something new.
And I can read it, because I bring my nice lil' laptop to school, and the school has wireless interwebz! (So it's really their own fault.

)
And yay! I'm spreading the Dickie luuurv!

Well, usually I have MY awkward moments when away from LFG and I just randomly burst out laughing when I somehow recall a funny scene...can be annoying if you're at a board meeting or something like that, I really need to learn to focus on those occasions...

I was walking around at one point singing the "Slaughter Your World" song, and I mean really sing and my friends were like wtf? When I thought about it I have this like stifled high pitch giggle but then I actually laugh and it's a loud deep one so it's always awkward but fun.

My computer's in my bedroom and I'm pretty sure my neighbor's bedroom is on the opposite side of the wall, so I always wonder if they can hear me laughing maniacally at 3 in the morning. I don't care for them much, so I kinda hope they can hear me.
I tend to do a little Mona Lisa-type smile at work when thinking of a particularly funny panel. Which isn't hard to do since most of them are particularly funny. Co-workers ask me what the hell's so funny.
When I first started reading this comic about a month ago it was actually causing problems at work. I wasn't "focusing on my process" as my boss calls it, which basically means I was fucking up because I was thinking up demotivators instead of paying attention to my job.
