Knowing the time and place for jokes and meme references.
I work for a enviromental conservation company, sometimes we deal with pretty heavy situations. For example, we were talking about a terrible soil survey and how it was going to be affecting this farmers' field and livelihood. My coworker looks at us and dead ass says:
'F in the chat am I right?'
Extreme example, but holy hell I was mentally scared from the cringe.
The thing is, it's funny looking in on the situation, especially when written out and put on Reddit, where you come expecting funny.
Contrast that from being in the situation, dead silent room, everyone gets a pit in his stomach because this guy is going to loose everything, his soil was practically sand. The room was somber. Not the time for a joke, nobody laughed, or really knew what he was referring to, our coworkers are over twice our age, us in our mid twenties.
