Environment Wrong Crowd

[Tigger Please!]

Have you ever told a joke that is totally wrong for the crowd you're in?
Like yesterday I told our receptionist that Ima turn the basement at our office into my rape dungeon; she's obviously not a big alf Stewart fan.
Or the other day I had to go see some trades on site and one of them was complaining about his sausage roll being cold, so I offered to warm it under my armpit. He looked at me in disgust and said, "WTF is wrong with you?"
Or there was the time the HR guy at work called me and my manager into his office and said, "it's pretty cramped in here so sit wherever you can." I replied, "is that an invitation to sit on your lap?" neither of them saw the humor in it.
Tbh though, the reactions I got in all three instances gave me more satisfaction than if they had been met with laughter, so go figure.
Does anyone else have any stories they'd like to share?

I once was telling a joke to a group of friends and the joke was more than a little racist towards black people. What I had forgotten was that there was a black guy in our group who was kind of tagging along and didn't ever talk. Anyway, I only noticed he was there after I finished telling the joke and then it was really really awkward. I immediately changed the subject and was trying to act as though I hadn't just told insulted his whole race.

It's pretty obvious that you're not funny

Tell me this isn't going to become part of our language....

Sorry magpie_man that stuff wouldn't be amusing to any crowd.

I think it already has....

 

[Tigger Please!]

Making inapproriate jokes is way more fun when the people don't dig it. Freak out the squares, man.

Try watching Family Guy with someone in a wheelchair who regularly gets upset that they're in a wheelchair. Awkward.

Troll? I'm a tad confused.

hahaha i found the rape dungeon part funny but i could never bring myself to say it to a work colleague . I sometimes say used to say it around a chick i dig and whom also had interest in me, she was weirded out by it so i showed her the video (could've been even worse) but she laughed at it.

I quote tv shows too much, and a while ago a few times at work i'll do as such and ill just get these odd "what a freak" looks.
I remember my mate was in chinatown and it was really cold so he says "its a bit nippy here". Not meaning to be racist of course though.

 

[Tigger Please!]

nah, no troll man, I swear
I guess, in hindsight, they were pretty lame
But it was funny at the time. Carry on.

Yeah, me too. I also make personal jokes that me and my mates have made to people who I know would have no idea what I'm talking about.

I was with a group of friends on a train making fun of redheads, needless to say the person who sat down beside me during this session was a redhead. He seen the funny side of it though after seeing the look on my face when I realised and subsequently pissing myself laughing at the awkwardness of it.

When I was about 17 I got dragged along to a christian youth group camp. We were sitting around a bonfire and people telling jokes, all clean ones because being christians they didn't use profanity. I told a joke, can't even remember what it was but it involved a fair bit of profanity. The whole group went from laughing at all the previous jokes to just sitting there in silence. It was quite awkward for a few minutes, people were just looking at each other and I was thinking "WTF?, I thought it was funny". My mate who had dragged me along told me later what I had done.
