Life’s Like That

SEEING THE FUNNY SIDE

SOAP DISH

A friend of mine, not renowned as a good cook, bought a prepared pack of beef and chopped vegetables and had proceeded to fry it in her wok when bubbles appeared.

She was completely baffled until she realised that her oil bottle happened to be standing next to the washing up liquid. SUBMITTED BY JAN CUNNINGHAM

TYPECAST

Four year old: “Mummy, you’re just like a Disney movie. We should play pretend.” Me: “Aww! Sure!” Four year old: “You can be the Beast.” Me: “…” Four year old: “Or the fat sea witch!” @MARLEBEAN ON TWITTER

TRAINING IN SARCASM

My son and I were playing catch when I did a completely terrible throw that sailed over his head. “Sorry, that was a bad throw,” I said.

He shot me a kind look and responded, “No, Daddy, that was a wonderful toss.”

Then, taking two steps towards the ball, he stopped, turned around and continued, “When we say something nice, even when we don’t mean it at all, that’s called being polite, right?”

GOOD FOR THE GOOSE

Our son left a pair of his dirty football boots on the kitchen table and his dad complained, “Surely he’s got more sense? We eat off that table. It’s absolutely disgusting.”

Later that evening, I came home with my shopping and there was my husband, overhauling his gear box on the middle of the kitchen table!
