A friend's dad once stormed up to me and threatened to "punch your stupid face in" because I pointed a camera at him. I was 11. Have you ever done something innocent or made a harmless joke that ended in threats to your person? Tell us about it.
Thanks to Skullfunkerry for the suggestion

When I was little, my mum took me to visit my gran in Ireland, who was a massively staunch Catholic. My parents had always made a point of bringing me up as far away from religion as possible, so the whole Catholic iconography was a closed book to me. My gran's house was festooned with religious trinkets like painted plates, holy water bottles, rosaries and the like, and one day on holiday I found a little kaleidoscope on the mantlepiece, except instead of having colourful refracting lenses inside, it was like a miniature slide show of Jesus and the saints. Drawing on my six or seven years' heathen education, I said "But who are all these famous people?"
