‘We should get all the black people off the land’
It’s impossible to always know the right thing to say, but there are times when you whiff so bad that you want to take up residence on a remote island where no one else can be cursed with your words. One Redditor remembers the time they greeted their friend by saying “How’s it hanging?” and immediately regretted it.
