OK, I'll admit it, sometimes I have the sense of humor of a 15 year old boy. Not in the potty humor kind of way, but in "mom...you said buns" kind of way.
One day at work my friend Steve was talking about how he and his 15 year old daughter were watching TV, and an SNL skit came on that had Betty White in it. Well, it was a radio show where Betty White was talking about her "muffin". Of course they made all kinds of innuendo and crass jokes about her muffin, actually she made most of them herself. There is something funny about an older lady that seems kind of proper saying nasty things.
The funny part was that Steve's daughter was watching the show and trying to pretend she didn't understand the jokes. She was able to hold back for a while but finally started laughing and couldn't stop herself. I understand that! I remember watching TV with my parents as a teenager and something sexual coming on and I would be all uncomfortable (maybe they were too). I would try and pretend I didn't understand what was going on, cuz you didn't want to seem too knowlegable to your parents!
So one of the other very funny SNL skits that was similar was Schweddy Balls. Alex Baldwin played Mr. Schweddy on the radio show. Well, here it is...hope you laugh as much as I did.
I wonder how many times they all broke down and started laughing rehearsing that skit. I try not to watch things like that on TV when the kids are awake because Morgan will undoubtedly focus that Mom and Dad were cracking up when watching a show about "Schweddy's Balls" and file that info away later to ask Grandma and Grandpa at during dinner or something why it might be so funny :)
ReplyDeleteLol, that is funny Kelly. I can see her doing that too. Sounds like you have had a few of those awkward moments at the parents before. Kids are like little sponges!
ReplyDeleteReminds me last year I think it was. Lorry's parents don't like tattoos and since she has a couple she just never mentioned to her parents that she has had some for years. There was a show on TV while we were at their place about tattoos and Morgan pipes up "Hey those look like Mom's tattoos!" and they're all "You're kidding right? My daughter doesn't have any!"
ReplyDeleteThose NPR gals are a hoot.
