This is actually a twist on the theme...My mates had a severe case of Foot in Mouth Syndrome while at the pub, with me on the receiving end.
We were sat in said pub and i wasn't talking too much as i recently had some bad news. One observant mate decided to include me more in conversation by asking how my dog was doing. "It's dead!" was my simple answer. At this point they all burst out laughing (as it's the usual stupid thing i say when someone asks me how someone else is). But the laughter dampened down when i continued "... no, it really is dead! It died yesterday with heart problems." Bastards! I loved that dog!
