What is your funniest coming out experiance?

I plan on coming out to a friend over lunch tomorrow. Whats a funny reaction someone had when you came out? (Could be with a friend, family member. stranger, etc.)

Update:

This is how I planned on doing it. I was going to break the ice by saying this: I told you I needed to talk to you about something so here it goes... friend from Colombia got me an awesome job. About once a month I traffic cocaine for about $400. Great money -- wanna earn an extra $400 a month?

Update 2:

a night*

    I rang my Dad and told him i had met the person i was going to spend the rest of my life with.....oh, and it's a WOMAN.

    He laughed and said 'We were wondering when you were going to figure it out'.

    I was 35 at the time, so my parents had been waiting a while for me to come out.

    I came downstairs one morning and my mom was just sitting in her recliner. I sat in a chair opposite from her and a few minutes later I just blurted out during a moment of silence, "By the way, I'm a lesbian". She didn't say anything for a few minutes but she began to rock back and forth like a mad woman, lmao...it was funny at the time.

    A not yet out friend of mine was giving me a ride home, and I was complaining to him about some girls who had asked me for his number. The whole ride I complained about how many girls liked him and finally said like "God, Matt, if you don't just go get a girlfriend everyone is going to think you're gay," while I was getting out of the car. And then while I was shutting the door, he calmly said, "I am." And drove off. Luckily he didn't hear me scoff. It took a phonecall from him later that night to realize he was serious. xD

    Lol I had a walk in closet at the time, so I used it. I'll never forget Amy, "But you were the straight one!" (I was the last of several friends to come out.)

    Depending on your friend's sense of humor the cocaine joke might work, it might not....

    I can't say any reactions were particularly funny. My mom's reaction was something between disbelief and relief, although she did make sure to warn me to be careful not to get AIDS (thanks Mom!). My siblings were mostly "so?" and my dad's response was "that would be hard", because we were talking about being gay in the Boy Scouts (I had decided to resign my membership).

    Hmm

    I wouldn't exactly call their reactions "funny"...

    Quite the opposite actually.
