Winks are awkward

Friend: Hey, I'm coming over to your house to get the papers. *winks*
Me: I-err... I think my rat has explosive diarrhea.

In instant messaging:
Friend: What are you up to?
Me: Nothing. Just the usual. You?
Friend: Just ordering some food in this restaurant. I think I'm going to order a milkshake. Yum.

Friend: Wanna see something?
Me: Uh... I'm not sure.
Friend: Here. *gives me a link to a funny youtube video*
Me: Oh. Ha. Ha.

Sometimes they're just friendly gestures but geez... Fucking awkward.
