Dad jokes. I'm at dinner at my parents’ place. My mother is telling my dad off for not wearing his hearing aids. Dad is getting annoyed.
“I put them up my bum!” he says.
“What?” says my mother in exasperation.
“Yes,” Dad says slyly, “you see, I thought they said, ‘put it in your REAR’.”
I can’t help myself and start laughing at this.
Then I look at my mother and she has a hand clamped over her mouth and is also laughing, like Marge Simpson at Ned Flanders’ ‘bosom’ letter.
