My freshman year a buddy and I went around our school cafeteria "begging" for change with a cup. We made some good money that way. We'd always try to be funny, though, so I went to a table saying "My mom has cancer, put in some change?" One of the kids looked at me very sadly, got up, and walked away.
Turns out his mom had recently died of cancer.
I've never felt so awful in my life. It was a lesson for me on being more sensitive to things that shouldn't be made into jokes.
