Whether it's foot in mouth, a sudden heavy subject, or some utter nonsense that you don't know how to process, what's something that's come up in an otherwise alright conversation that's stopped it dead in its track for both of you?

I was hanging with a girl that was pretty chill. We had hung a few times over the few months we had met, and had a nice platonic thing going.

She came over and we started to watch some documentary, and in it, there was an abusive man of African descent. She straight up said, "I think there's something genetic with them that causes them to have a short temper and behave like that".

Yeah, we never hung out again.

I wonder if it's the same genetic trait shared by police officers... 🤔

Nah, that’s just tiny peepee anger. They finally can be the asshole bully they always were.
