Conversation killers

Was in the pub on fri night. Mate started talking to a German and a Dutch guy who are in London on business. They were talking about F1, and my mate went on to say he supports McLaren because they are british, to which the German asks "Why not Mercedes or BMW? Both types are superior to all British makes. Germans make the best cars. We have the best Engineering."

To which I stepped in and said "Well we, the British, do have one piece of engineering that is superior. The Spitfire."

Silence... :)
 
I try to carry on the conversation but 9 times out of 10, the person just seems a bit unsure of what to do next and you can feel the awkwardness get worse the longer it goes on. Luckily my friends aren't like that, but acquaintances etc are.

In fairness I've only mentioned it to one girl that I've been interested in since it happened and since I've been single. She was a bit uneasy and sympathetic but I don't know I managed to keep conversation going and not stray off from it...plus we'd had a fair bit to drink, which I guess helps talking/rambling. :p

If the story of my death could get my mates some lovin, then they may milk it for all it;s worth :p

lol. :p

i dont believe for one second you said that.

if you did, then it woulda been nice if the story ended with you getting your face bounced off the window
:confused: I thought you said in the other thread (my one about the kid climbing the leccy pylons) that you have a sick sense of humour too?

I found slinky's story hilarious, regardless if true or not.

Some people on these forums continue to weird me out :(

/edit: guess I killed the conversation :D
