Laughed at my husband for getting hit by a car
This fuck up actually happened a few weeks ago.
Long story short, when my husband was a kid, approx. 8? or so years old, he was hit by a car while riding his bike. He had to be airlifted to a hospital. All is good and he is a healthy 31 year old.
Well, around Thanksgiving his immediate family had over extended family for a few days. One of those days we had spent the day walking around and bar hopping. He invited his cousin who was in town with his gf. We were drinking at a place I used to GM at, so sometimes they will give us free shots or pour heavy. I got a little toasty and my husband invited his dad to join us. We were all laughing and sharing stories, when his dad brought up how he’s proud of my husband which triggered him to speak about the time my husband almost passed away as a child after being hit by this car.
Now I should mention, my husband and I will joke about this situation sometimes. Like if we are walking about I’ll make a comment to look both ways so he isn’t hit again, or we will tell our son when he isn’t paying attention about what happened, or if my husband forgets something or does something silly I’ll ask if it was because of his accident. We both think it’s funny and can tease each other about stuff.
Back to the story. So my FIL is talking about the accident and starts tearing up and speaking about the trauma of almost losing his son.
I start fucking laughing so hard. Not at my FIL but at my husband because this is our joke and toasted me thought about all the times we had joked about this.
So his family and SOs are all looking at my like I’m nuts. This makes it worse. I can’t stop laughing to explain myself. My husband had to give a brief explanation and then excuse ourselves and we leave as I’m still giggling and wiping tears.
Now it’s Christmas and I’m deadass embarrassed to go rejoin all these people.
Happy holidays, and look both ways.
TL;DR: my husband almost died as a child by getting hit by a car. My FIL brought up this accident and was crying. I proceeded to laugh uncontrollably, now Christmas is gonna be awkward.
