Monday Funday #2 The Parental Divorce

Spread the love

Here’s a nice topical joke for the time of year.

An old man in Miami calls his son in New York and says: “Listen, your mother and I are getting divorced. Forty‑five years of misery is enough.”

“Dad, what are you talking about?” the son shouts.

“We can’t stand each other anymore,” the father replies. “I can’t bear to see her face, and I’m tired of talking about it. Call your sister in Chicago and tell her.” Then he hangs up.

The son, worried, calls his sister.

She says: “As if they’re really getting divorced!” and immediately phones their father. “You are NOT getting divorced! Don’t do anything. We’re both coming home tomorrow to talk about this. Until then, don’t call a lawyer, don’t fill out any papers, DO YOU HEAR ME?” Then she hangs up.

The old man turns to his wife and says: “Okay, they’re coming for Christmas — and they’re paying for their own tickets.”
