Parents

People ask me allll the time how I got to be so smart and worldly. Did you catch the sarcasm?

I just tell them I got it from my parents.


I  made a "that's what she said" joke to my Mom the other night- not that I usually do, that's SO 2007, but she just set it up so perfectly. Then she didn't get it and asked if I was making a sexual joke. So I suppose it is, and say yes. Then she gets mad and says that I shouldn't say that kind of stuff to my mother. Then I say, HELLLOOO I know you watch the Office!!


She had never "heard" it before. I put it in "" because she does watch the show but had never caught onto it. *headsmack*  She didn't even believe me until we watched a recent episode- which I wouldn't even think one of those jokes would be on because they cut them back, but sure enough it was. And she missed it. Again.

*headsmack*


And for my oh so wise and observing father discovered in Australia while he was reading a sign that "UGG Australia" is not pronounced U-G-G Australia, but "ugg". He had never heard of them before.

*headsmack*







Yep, the apple sure doesn't fall far from the tree.

  1. Haha. I love your sense of humor. Have you seen SNL's Bedelia series? Any of them?

    "Apple - tree Dad." :)

  2. Haha. So funny. I can't imagine what my parents would do if I made a "that's what she said" joke - they just barely asked me what "nicmo" meant and I just told them not to worry :)

  3. And by "nicmo" i meant, NCMO. Someone needs to re-check her abbreviations.

  4. Oh, you've got to love the parentals. Glad my parents are the only ones that are clueless.
