<human>: Not today but about three years ago, a friend of a friend of mine's mother had died recently. Our mutual friend had invited six people over to her house to hang out with him and just try to keep his spirits up (let's call him "Sam"). Keep in mind, these were all Sam's friends so I was an outsider to their group, and to be honest it doesn't even seem appropriate that I was there to begin with in retrospect. Anyway, we were all just trying to comfort him and take his mind off of his grief for a bit, when at one point he pulls out his laptop so we can look up entertaining YouTube videos. Every time we finish one, someone else in the group makes a new video suggestion, so I rack my brain trying to remember the ones that have made me laugh the hardest. I'd been watching skits from "The Whitest Kids U Know" lately, and decide we should browse their videos because they are hilarious and sure to make everyone laugh. The first one that shows up is called "Classroom Skit", and I immediately say "Click that one! That's one of the funniest videos they have". Now, while I remembered that that skit had made me laugh my ass off, I hadn't seen it in quite a while and didn't remember the context. About 30 seconds into the video, it suddenly dawns on me--this whole skit is just a joke about a kid's recently deceased mother. An elementary teacher receives news that one of her student's mothers has died and starts making the kids guess which one of them it was for a chance to win candy. By the time I make the realization of what it is I've just suggested, the joke has already started. In a moment of panic I reason that telling Sam to click away will only draw more attention to how untimely the video is and make him feel embarrassed, so I keep my mouth shut. All six of us proceed to sit silently through the most agonizing four minutes of my life. When it's finally over, nobody says a word for an awkward few moments until one girl finally mumbles, "Wow...". Then, someone else hesitantly suggests another video and for the rest of the night everyone pretends like nothing happened.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: Tried to cheer up acquaintance whose mother recently died by telling him to watch video about recently deceased mothers because "it's one of the funniest videos I've ever seen"
