Bade jokes + bad timing = bad personposted Aug 28th 2008, 11:26AM
Music: Defenitly NOT Rammstein
You know what sucks? Bad jokes. Especially jokes about disasters and such. I remember how people started to make jokes about 9/11 on the same day it happened. I never understood that.
Bad timing goes hand in hand with that. You know, making bad jokes about someone who died on the anniversary. It doesn't make the joke better.
Today I had a prime example of "retard" at work. On of my co-workers made a bad joke about "Ramstein". Not the band but the disaster 1988 at Ramstein Air Base where 70 people died and over 400 where injured when a plane crashed into the crowd while trying to perform an air-show.
My wife is there right now. Today is the 20th anniversary and as a survivor she and her father are there for the commemoration, leaving me and our daughter at home...which is better I think.
20 years ago this disaster took her mother (her real mother) and her sister away, leaving her, her brother and her father behind. Of course she doesn't remember every detail...she was just 4 years old. But everytime she hears a jet roar over our heads, she goes inside the house. Can't blame her.
