When someone asks you a question, you tell them something, and either they or someone else says something that makes what you said seem so little which leads to an awkward moment.

For example:

personA: How was your day?

you: Tiring, I went through two classes back to back, which were both two hours long.

personb: really? I had four classes back to back today.

*silence*
