Lightening the mood

Adding humor is often a good way to diffuse a tense situation, but this is NOT true when it comes to a breakup. Never a good idea. Especially if you’re breaking up with your partner after they’ve just been injured and the pun is making fun of their injury. This is just poor taste. Just no.

Leave it to 6th graders to find the most awkward, cringeworthy, and kind of mean way to break up with someone. Joking about their broken leg… yikes! It just brings all those awkward middle school memories flooding back, although most of us probably don’t have a story this bad to remember.
