I just made a Heath joke at the office

[cardiganagain]

my relevent co-workers found it hilarious.

Co-worker 1 announces at 10:30 est time "Wow guys did you know it's 12/12/12"

Evee - Wow cool, did you know Heath Ledger died too.

Co-worker 1 - Blank stare of confusion

Co-workers 2 and 3 - Snicker snicker lol *pats Evee on the back for a good joke"

The End

The way I presented it, it was understandable without mentioning ML. If I would have said "Thanks for the Heath" then no one would have understood it.

But since I said
"Wow cool, did you know Heather Ledger died too". My other 2 co-workers were aware that Heath died years ago and thus understood the humor.
