"Well, this is awkward" reads as "omg oopsie whoopsie did we make a lwittle error uwu!!! ><" which I'm not surprised is viscerally cringy.
That's like saying getting a paper cut on your finger is just like having your arm chopped off. There's a pretty wide difference there.
I guess if you're the sort of person to hyperbolicly exaggerate every minor inconvenience you encounter, it's the same thing. It must be exhausting to be like that.
