Foot in mouth day!  You could say something as a joke that is taken seriously and hurts someone.  A tasteful piece of tape over your mouth, or some serious thinking before speaking can help.  But you don’t want to be careful, you feel something and you want to blurt it out!  Spend time around [...]
