    I guess it runs in the family.

    I once learned from my mother that my brother went to home coming with a blind girl. My mom was so proud and told me how much she respected my brother because of it.

    A couple years later I learned from one of my brother's friends that he went with the blind girl because it would make him look better to all the girls at the school, make him look better than all the guys at the school and the blind girl put out.

    Good blood runs in my family.

    There was this one time at work (of all places) when I was telling a manager the bad news about his printer. It was broken, and it had run out of warranty. This guy usually makes really obscene jokes and is generally cool so I described the situation as "We only had a 1 year warranty on these. We kinda jewed out in that respect"

    As it turns out, he is Jewish, as is his entire family, his wife, and her family.

    Oops.

    No. I made a nice follow up by explaining that its reason for breaking down was the realization that they crucified their lord over 2000 years ago.*

    This wasn't a verbal moment of awkwardness, but awkward enough - right now I'm in the U.S. on vacation with my mother's side of the family, and last night I finally took a break from family partying to forum and talk to friends on gchat. Which was totally fine except I have an eight-year-old cousin who, you know, wants to be doing whatever the big cousins are doing. So she wandered over and perched behind my chair to watch me type, just in time for the word "clusterfuck" to pop up on the screen, and sure enough, she pointed directly to it. "What does that word mean?"

    Well Rachel, it's a kind of insect whose Latin name translates as 'Your cousin Salient is going to be in huge trouble with your dad.'

    We used to have a german programmer working with us. One time we were in a meeting figuring out how to work out the logging in all the systems and he said, "Jah, we just need to figure out the final solution to this logging problem."

    We've never let him forget that one.

    I am super bad at remembering names. I need to be told maybe four or five times before I ever remember anyone's name.
    So, I dated a girl in high school for two weeks. We ended up hooking up the day we met. The problem was that we had no mutual friends, she had no driver's license, and she FOR SOME REASON assumed I had learned her name.
    Two whole weeks of calling this girl "baby" and "honey" and shit before she finally realized I had no idea what her name was. That got weird. The best part was that she only realized it because I had been going around telling everyone I knew about this and it somehow got back to her (god knows how)

    Double happy ending:
    Some kid came up to me like a week after this, said he had heard this story and thought it was awesome, and we became pretty good friends!

    Also this girl became a stripper at the world's shittiest strip joint and that's just funny to me.

    I never knew where that word came from until I used it in front of a friend and she got butthurt at me saying it was derogatory towards gypsies.

    During the winter of my sophomore year I was back home eating dinner with the family when I was asked how my job was going. I told them that people hated & feared me so much that when I walked around the building they would run to their rooms and shut the door. I also mentioned how they vandalized my door almost every three days and that my reputation for being such an intense hard-ass had made its way all around campus.

    My dad looked at me and told me he was proud of me.

    This is the only time my father has ever said those words to me.

    my goodness
    hysterical
    1610s, from L. hystericus "of the womb," from Gk. hysterikos "of the womb, suffering in the womb," from hystera "womb" (see uterus). Originally defined as a neurotic condition peculiar to women and thought to be caused by a dysfunction of the uterus. Meaning "very funny" (by 1939) is from the notion of uncontrollable fits of laughter. Related: Hysterically.

    and not solely "going crazy from excitement"

    it hasn't changed as such, but it doesn't always mean what it used to, it can mean other things, and getting mad at people for using it just because it used to be a little sexist is superiority-complex pompous silly goosery
