ThatNiceMan asks: Have you ever been talking with people down the pub when somebody throws such a complete curveball (Sample WTF moment: "I wonder what it's like to get bummed") that all talk is stopped dead? Tell us!

My "uncle"/"step-grandad" had lots of physical woes.
Which is how he came to be at the hospital with my mum. He'd had an op on his spine which left him with no feeling below his pelvis, so walked with a staccato fart perambulation. He also had lost most of his hearing, or perhaps more accurately never turned on his hearing aid.

And so it came to pass, in a hospital waiting room (never a place known for its lively conversation anyway) that he stopped all and sundry with (caps lock because he shouted it!);
"OF COURSE, IT'S ALL ON ACCOUNT OF MY PENIS!"

Conversation may have stopped, but all ears were now firmly entrenched in their conversation for the rest of the wait.
