Conversation KillersThatNiceMan asks: Have you ever been talking with people down the pub when somebody throws such a complete curveball (Sample WTF moment: "I wonder what it's like to get bummed") that all talk is stopped dead? Tell us!

Back to around 1980. I had a radio cassette recorder, thatI used to take everywhere with me.
Most Sundays I would religiously rush home in time to listen to the Top 40, and record all the tunes I wanted, to be played over the coming week. I also had a rather nasty habit, as was not uncommon in 13 year old boys, of recording other miscelany such as burps and farts.
So, I'm sure you've guessed where we're going here.
Grandma and Grandad were coming to stay for the week. They used to get the train from their house in Surrey, to redhill. My parents would pick them up from there.
In the car with Mum, picked up said grandparents, we're driving home, chattering away happily. Mum has borrowed last weeks top 40 tape to play in the car. Approaching Westerham, some jaunty Michael Jackson tune or similar is playing.
. . . living off the waaaaall . . . .
*crackle, crunch *
"Wait, wait, I've got one coming" *giggling sounds, banging and crashing noises*
"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!"
*more giggling sounds*
"you dirty cunt!"
*laughter* *cruch, bang*
. . . . living off the wall . . . .
Silence. Granny looking at Mum, Grandad looking at me, Mum staring at the road ahead, all thinking 'Was that what I thought it was???'.

nice oneI used to do the same - taping bits of the top 40 I mean, and my father farted loudly during Toyah's "Thunder in the mountains". All my mates loved it.......
