Not exactly funny but it did almost make me laugh out loud, we were talking about a bunch of different problems with society (all caused by capitalism) and I lightly put forth some 'socialistic' solutions, and they replied wistfully that those things would be nice but were impossible because of "human nature".

It was the way they were totally serious, with their completely reflexive dismissal, I was like... how can you be so cliche?? I was just startled to find out that real people, in the real world, really are primed to spit out the most basic anticommunist platitudes as an instant reaction to even a whiff of socialism.
