The Post About Conversations: Judge Judy Said

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.
