My ex did these all the time.  My favorite was the new neighbor walking down the road with a younger girl.  My ex shouts out "Hi!  Is that your granddaughter?"  The lady got a pissed look and replied back "That's my daughter."

I was at a fancy dinner with all of the higher ups.  This was my chance to break into their group and get a leg up in the organization!  I'd schmooze and get my name out there and be remembered when they needed someone the next time they needed to promote someone!  They served this amazing soup but they must have been having an off evening because the soup wasn't hot.  Like, not at ALL.  Trying to impress my betters with how I could handle a situation with incompetent underlings, I politely told the waiter that my soup was cold.  He took it back and reheated it for me.  I became the talk of the table!

 

I had no idea that gazpacho soup was meant to be served cold...

That's ok, had a friend who had apparently never had shrimp before get served shrimp with the shell and legs. He didn't peel them before eating them. 

10 years later we still give him crap about it, lol

Hah, sounds like the first time I had authentic tamales. I didn't know you had to unwrap the corn husk off them.

Dad and I went to a big state fair one summer when I was a kid.  We rode rides and watched a tractor pull, and ELO was the band that night.  We stopped in the mess tent to get lunch that day and they had Crab Soup.  We both got a bowl, and each bowl had a half a soft-shell crab in it.  We started chomping it down, but about halfway through eating it, we both looked at each other after realizing... it wasn't soft-shell.  It was just a plain old hard crab that had softened a little in the soup.  We got looks from other people like we were cavemen

She should definitely put her foot down over all these tasteless jokes.
