Today, I walked into my house to find everyone sitting around the table and looking sad. I thought it would be a good time to crack a joke and said, "What's wrong? Grandma finally die?" Turns out she had. FML

Today, while having lunch with my grandparents, my grandpa's eyes glazed over, his head fell and he slumped in his chair. I started panicking and almost cried, thinking he was dead. Then he laughed and said "Just kidding. I'm fine." FML

Today, my mom came over to me and whispered something in my ear. I didn't hear it and assumed it was a joke, so I started laughing. Turns out my aunt died. FML

Today, I saw an old friend while out and about. Since I don't leave the house very often, my friend was surprised to see me in person. He jokingly asked if someone was dying, and I cried in response. I was in fact going to the hospital to say goodbye to my grandma. FML

Today, after my sister's wedding, a bunch of people were dancing. I noticed my grandma sitting alone and looking sad. My grandpa died last month, so feeling bad for her, I asked if she'd like to dance with me. She seemed a lot happier, until I accidentally caused her to fall and break her arm. FML

Today, one of my closest friends and I got into a fight. She ended the conversation with, "My grandma just had a stroke. Bye." I didn't believe her so I replied "That's great. Bye." Turns out her Grandma is in the hospital in critical condition. FML

Today, I was hanging out with my friends and my sister, we were all wasted and I was making jokes. My sister then gets a phone call, I leave the room to get a drink and I hear everyone go a bit silent I come back in and all of the sudden everyone looks at me. My friend says, "Um… I'm so sorry, your mom passed." FML

What kind of joke is that? Even if she hadn't died, it wouldn't be funny!

Maybe when you die they will say the same thing.

Dude. You should have known better. What a sick sense of humor. I hope your family's getting better though.

You have no sense of humor, the only reason it's bad is because of his timing, he didn't know, why should he deserve it?

I could see maybe saying, "Who died?" Which would be bad enough, but specifically saying your grandma was pretty tactless. And sorry for your loss?

There are specific internet terminology for such movements, my good friend. This particular one is referred to as a "facepalm". You're welcome.

First of all. When your family is sitting at a table looking sad, why in the world would you think that's a good time to crack a joke? Second of all. That joke wouldn't be funny if she hadn't died... Especially since they were clearly upset. Sorry about your grandma, but you so deserved that one.
