I was in a weird mood today. I arrived at the flu clinic to see thousands of people in line waiting. They started arriving at 8 AM and the doors did not open until 2PM. So after 5 hours of directing people thru the lines and listening to children scream, a lady in line looked at me and said:
"I knew your parents! They ran the gas station down the road from me."
She looked me in the eye and said: "You look just like your father"
I freaked her out with my comeback: "Oh great, he's been dead for 10 years"
I do not know what made me say that. The look on that lady's face was weird! I am so sorry for that.
Thanks for this!

I agree it is funny. Let me help you understand her response though - usually when you find out from a family member that someone died - you're not expecting to hear it, coupled with a joke. So she's left perplexed not knowing whether to laugh or say I'm so sorry for your loss - so instead she probably looked stunned/confused. But I do admit, it was a very funny comeback!!

Making people confused as to the right thing to do can be funny in and of itself!
