You mean versus 100 years ago when it was unlikely that the family much less the child would even have a banana?
And where the father and a couple of neighbors could take the idiot into the backyard and beat him senseless without interference from others and certainly not the police?

Yes, that's precisely what I meant, because I'm incapable of seeing anything other than two absurd ends of a spectrum...

Well it hard to determine what "these days" means.

Few years ago me and two co-workers were traveling in a car on a quite suburbia road, me in the front passenger seat. The guy seating behind me was telling us in a great details for his new life insurance on behalf of his girlfriend. Numbers, tricks, suicide clause – everything. He looked so obsessed by the matter so in one moment I leaned back and gently asked: “Do you want me to kill you?”
Silence in the car…

Sadly, but not to my co-workers. From this moment I was never invited to barbecue with them.

It is nice the story has a happy ending.
How much fun could those folks be at a BBQ?

Well, I stayed in Fort Lauderdale near Pompano Beach for 10 days at a local Hotel (about 3 years ago).
Florida temparatures are a pain in the ass, even in spring.
Long story short, every cola needed ice. The ice machine on the floor was broken, so I went down to the front service desk and asked for "some ice for ma beavers".
Long story short, I originally intended to get the ice for the beverages - And the front desk Guy laughed his ass off.

Managing Director's P.A. was a very buxom young lady (and very nice)
We were entertaining some clients, and she was tasked with buying some glassware for the boardroom to server drinks. (existing glasses were mismatched and old).
She bought some very fine glasses, and matching water jugs, which she filled with cold swater , ice and slices of lemon.
As she walked into the boardroom carrying the tray, I looked up and said
"Lovely pair of jugs, Linda"
:crickets: :tumbleweed:

Went into a busy UK corner store one morning looking to buy a lottery ticket or "lucky dip" as it's called when the numbers are autopicked.
Bloke behind counter: "What can I get you, pal?".
Me: "Five lucky dicks, please".

I asked a guy I used to work, who has alopecia, if he lazered his head/eyebrows - not realising why they weren't there.. a blank stare back - but due to the lack of eyebrows - I could quite judge his reaction 
(Just so I don't look a complete James Blunt, his baldness was the topic of conversation!)

My aunt was showing me a picture of my cousin one day and I said "who died and made him wear a suit?" -- her response: "my father".

When the company secretry was chatting while about a hand truck and how useful they were after she lost her husband I said "now that was careless, oh sorry!" (I wasn't really paying attention to the conversation I was doing what I was supposed to be, unlike now!) and hid behind the pick and place machine to get the foot out of my mouth!
