My wife and I were living on the UWS in NY. She was pregnant and craving Magnolia Bakery. We get our cupcakes and a nice gentleman outside opens the door for us as we leave. My wife promptly drops her cupcake at his feet. Never saw John Oliver look more confused.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Went to a BBQ spot I found on vacation last year.
Bartender, solid guy, non-native English speaker, points at the logo on my hoodie: "UNC?"
Me: "Yeah!"
Him: "Bill Belichek's football team?
Me: *fucking dead*
Still a solid bartender though.
