    And then one of the strangers approaches you to tell you how they also lost their child recently and gives you a lot of support resources. The joke is no longer funny and you feel like an ass.

    I mean, the premise is funny, but I would never do this in fear of accidentally ruining someone’s day.

      Worth the risk.

      Anything you aay has a small chance of triggering someone, even the thing you think is the least likely possible trigger can be the thing for someone.

      “Let’s go sledding.” can be a trigger.

        Anything you do has a small chance of killing you so you might as well go solo cave diving.
