Cringe!
Chickenlady winces, "I told a Hugh Grant/Divine Brown joke to my dad, pretending that Ms Brown was chewing gum so she'd be more American. Instead I just appeared to be still giving the blow-job. Even as I'm writing this I'm cringing inside."

Don't talk to grown kids in pushchairs.
I was working at Footlocker. They have that very American thing of getting staff to greet every customer.
A couple came in with a just-too-large-to-really-still-be-pushed-around-in-a-pushchair sized kid.
"Hey, it's alright for some, getting pushed around all day eh?" I chipped in.
"He can't walk".
I should have stopped talking but tried to gamely chat on. The kid was friendly but not saying anything while I served them.
"He's very quiet, isn't he"
"He can't speak".
At this point I should have just left, but while fitting his trainers my mouth has basically gone over the top of the trenches.
"Funny shaped feet he's got"
"Polio".

*passes you a steam powered digging machine*
It's amazing the disconnection between mouth and brain sometimes though. Willing the mouth to just shut up, and it comes up with some mortifying stuff.
