You would think that when someone you know is going to a funeral for someone who has passed on, chances are they probably knew them fairly well. (Unless you live in a seniors complex then they seem to show up just for something to do). And you would also think that when that someone you know says they are going to a funeral that your automatic reaction would be to ask who's it is. Apparently not.
Pat (on phone with his dad): You can't pick her up from school? How come? (pause) Oh a funeral, ok.
Chatter, chatter, chatter.
Me (once Pat is off the phone): Your dad is going to a funeral?
Pat: Yeah.
Me: Oh thats too bad, who died?
Pat: I have no idea.
Me: Seriously? You didn't even ask him who died?
Pat: No. Should I have?
I feel a little like Seth and Amy but REALLY??? Really, you didn't even think to ask who he knows that is no longer living? Really? Really. Are all dudes like this or am I just the special lady who scored this one?

Who's Seth and Amy?
From Weekend Update on SNL. They have a segment called "Really? With Seth and Amy". It's funny.
