Do you know what's more embarrassing than having 'Another One Bites the Dust' as a ringtone?

Not putting your phone on silent at a funeral.
 
My , now deceased brother-in-law, was a missle expert for the US, and quite a jokester. He knew all his personnel had to have their phones on 24 hrs. One Sunday morning he called one of his buds and in the perfect gay voice, and scolded him about leaving his toothbrush on the counter. Come to find out, the bud was at church sitting in the middle of the congregation when the phone went off. Nevertheless, the next day of work, bro in law came out in the afternoon to go home (they are locked in a bunker all day) to find his Cobra replica filled with foam packing beads. He never did it again.
 
I've enjoyed a good joke. Used to work with this lady who loved to pull practical jokes. We were in different offices so didn't see each other more than a couple times a month. One year she pulled one on me, forget the exact circumstances, and when her birthday rolled around I had delivered to her office a big bundle of balloons, pink and blue balloons with on big silver one that said congratulations. Cards said, happy birthday, but guess what everyone else thinks.. Called to yell that every other woman in the office it seemed had come by to ask if she and her husband wanted a boy or girl. And she kept yelling, for me it was one of those laugh till you cry moments, which also wasn't seen then as funny.. Took a couple days, but she did decide it was pretty funny.

Basil: Larry, you have a PM


NOW you're in deep doo-doo. Guess who filled his car with packing?
 
I heard of a guy who worked at a funeral home -
his t shirt said "I SEE DEAD PEOPLE".

This is a funeral home I worked with when I lived in Hamilton. The more astute among you will have no doubt already realized their phone number is 383-dead

Was that intentional or just a co-inky-dinky?

By the way, back in the days of dial up internet bulletin boards, I ran a BBS with a number that spelled 505 CONNECT
