I forgot to ask this. Does anyone know why it's impolite to ask how someone has recently died?

When I was 5 I told an obese woman in a store she should not buy so much candy because she will get fatter than what she already is. :lol:

Also when I was 5 I told a women she had big boobs and the cashier gave me a sucker for saying it. Score. :lol:

When I was 10 my father and I were in a super market together when I noticed the woman behind me had a major camel toe. I looked up at her and told her she should not wear stretchy pants because everyone can see her vagina. She got out of line and my dad was laughing his ass off and said to me thanks for letting her know and why did I not let him know. :twisted: :roll:

When I was 22 I saw a female co-worker arguing with her boyfriend in the parking lot. She came in crying hysterically and I said let me guess he is leaving you because you are pregnant right. She then hyperventilated it turns out he did. My co-workers were either laughing at me for saying it or yelling at me for it. :oops:

When I was 25 were standing around talking about how horrible it was that a waitress's 3 year old daughter had leukimia. One of the b***h waitresses said it was a punishment for her being an unwed mother who sleeps around. I told jerk waitress if that was the case her mother dying of breast cancer was because she was cheating on her husband when he is at work. Everyone just stood there with weird looks on their faces. She walked out with this guy trailing behind her arguing as they got to the their car. It turns out the guy was her husband. She told her husband not to listen to me because I was ret*d. He came in the next day to interrogate me and co-workers he told me he knows I am not ret*d by how well I speak so everyone told on her including me.

When I was 30 a co-worker and I were watching tv in the break room when they were talking about an American woman who killed her adopted child from Russia because the kid was driven insane in the orphanage she got him from and she could not get him to behave. Then I turned to my co-worker and said who would want to adopt a baby you do not know if it was a product of incest or a prostitutes trick baby. He then turned to me and said he was adopted so I laughed. Everyone in the break room told him I laugh when I hear bad news so I was not laughing at him but at my nervousness. :roll: Thats the only one I feel bad for saying and nolonger say stuff like that because I did hurt his feelings. :oops:

I think everyone says the wrong thing at times, even NTs.

My NT friend said that when she went to her sister's wedding, she saw lots of people arriving a bit later, all wearing black, and all looking miserable and solumn and she joked, ''oh, looks like this is a funural, more than a wedding!'' then laughed, but one of the people in black said, ''um.....we just came from a funural. Can't you see that for yourself?'' And my friend felt really embarrassed and stupid.

Actually, usually out-spoken NTs often come out with the wrong thing, and easily offend people. I see it happen so many times in my workplace.
