Working in a European country, went to someone’s leaving party, to celebrate their career after 35+ years in the job. The manager is new, and flies in for the event specially. The whole room is speaking in their local language, the person’s whole extended family is there.
The manager gets up and starts to make a speech, using a lot of English idioms. The speech started out with “35 years?! You get less for murder!”.
As a native English speaker, I thought that was actually pretty funny.
The guys entire family - not so much.

Honestly, I don’t think this one is necessarily bad. In fact this is relatively light compared to the others here.
I mean… He meant to tell a joke, a good one for those who understand.
Not sure if he was meant to give speech, tho
That’s a cracker. Going to remember that one
