Great question, I'm glad you asked

Today, I went to a funeral. When I got there, I hugged one of the family members and he asked, "How are you?" Out of habit, I replied, "Good, how about you?" He looked appalled and shouted, "How the fuck do you think I am?! My mother just died!" loud enough for everyone to hear. FML

Jesus Christ, that sucks for you. I understand his mother just died, but seriously, no need to make a scene. It's the same as asking "How are you holding up?"

Wow, talk about over-reaction. FYL for having a family member like that.

I think it would have been rude NOT to ask how he was doing. even if he did lose his mother, he has no right to act that way. you did nothing wrong, OP

Well maybe he just didn't think that maybe you were asking how he was feeling since the death but seriously FYL OP

That really sucks. Don't worry, OP, it's not your fault. I feel bad for him, though. Probably he simply had too much and snapped out.

My reply, "No wonder she died, who the hell could live with you?!"

Okay, his mother died. That's still not an excuse to be a dick, no matter how much he's grieving.
