There was a time in my youth when, for whatever reason, the group of hoodlums I used to play ball with would trash talk to each other about the other guys Mothers. The usual stuff, generally implying having sex with the guy's Mother, or that they were loose women. I swear I never did this, it just never struck me as funny. Anyway, sure enough, after weeks of hearing this crap about Moms, I was engaged in some sort of banter with this guy and I made some crack about his Mom, and...I swear this is true...he reminded me that his Mother was DEAD. And she really was. Oooops. To his credit, he never held it against me, but obviously I still feel rotten about it to this day.
