I like to think my humor lies somewhere between "make you giggle" and "furrow your brow."
I'm often asked if my parents are funny.
This is the transcript of a conversation I had today with my mother that serves as Exhibit A in proving my parents' hilarity.
Mom: Like Judge Judy always said "Neither a borrower nor a lender be."
Me: Umm... She didn't say that originally.
Mom: Well, of course not. The guy who invented electricity said it.
Me: You mean God?
Mom: No, Benjamin Franklin.
Me: I'm pretty sure it was Shakespeare who said that.
Mom: {rolling her eyes at me in exasperation} Uh, Benjamin Franklin was QUOTING Shakespeare.
Me: {blink. blink.}
Disclaimer demanded by my mother: She was remembering Benjamin Franklin saying that while appearing in an episode of Bewitched.
Further evidence to support my claim.
