True story : one of my friends saw that I had 2000euros on my bank account, and he said "eh so that's how much you got paid for your internship? That sucks balls, they totally enslaved you". When in fact that was an unpaid intership and the 2000 came from my grandma's life insurance. (I would rather have had the 150 000 than the 2000.) His face was precious when I told him. To be honest though, he ALWAYS did stuff like this, but only when speaking to me and the sheer look of panic in his eyes made it clear it was never intentional. He's the embodiment of the French saying "mettre les pieds dans le plat", (to put one's feet in/on a dish).
