Hear them with my family present? My family tells those jokes to one anther. At dinner. Aunts, uncles, cousins, everyone. In fact, my dad told them all the time, and even my mom has been known to throw out a joke or two of that nature. And we laugh, as a family. The idea that this is a big deal just astounds me. These folks who are whining about this must be the same people who end up spontaneously combusting because they are afraid it would be improper to ever break wind, even in private.

For cryin' out loud, people, she told a joke about farm animals and her husband's ineptitude in dealing with them. It's a joke that has been around for eons. It's not like she used a strong of four letter words, or dressed in a skimpy little pop dive outfit and mounted the horse on stage. She did what every other normal housewife in the country does... poked fun at her husband. This whole reaction has to explain why when I go camping now, I have a hard time finding sticks for kindling. If those sticks are located where they seem to be these days, you can keep them. I certainly don't want them back, and your proctologist would charge double to remove them anyway.
