Sadly, this is a true story:
I'm playing in a golf tournament and I was fortunate enough to get a hold of one on the long drive hole and I won the prize for longest drive. When I got to the clubhouse, my father's secretary was there and she said to me, "Congratulations. I just heard your good news. Are you excited?"
This would have been a really good time to realize that she was congratulating me on the news that my wife was pregnant. Unfortunately, my ego told me that she had to be talking about my long drive - which is why I replied, "I'm just as surprised as anybody. I just got up there and hit it as hard as I could."
She hasn't spoken to me since.
