Five Things You Never Want Your Mother-in-Law to Overhear
True or Not, These Can Get You in Some Hot Water
1. "I wanted to really give it to her. But she's 15, so I was gentle."
Sounds like fun. And now might be a good time to explain to your MIL that you test-drove your buddy's '94 Corvette over the weekend.
2. "I've been throwing good money after bad to keep her quiet."
Catch her, and clarify with your MIL you've been chasing an engine noise ever since you traded down to that used minivan.
3. "The trick is keeping three going at the same time."
It might be a good idea to tell your MIL that you were responding to your brother bragging about juggling two tennis balls with one hand.
4. "I've been meaning to do it for months; I just haven't gotten around to buying the poison."
We understand that you're talking about getting rid of pesky annoyances, but your MIL may may not realize that you mean yard weeds.
5. "I can switch hands and gain a stroke."
Sadly, she probably got you with this one, because she knows you don't golf.

Post a CommentThanks Sophie. I had fun with these and was thinking about a couple more like them.
#4 is hilarious! You really have to watch what you say around your mother-in-law. Another thing is to never say anything negative about your spouse in her presence.
