A young man called Chris invited his mother for dinner, during the course of the meal, his mother couldn’t help but notice how handsome Chris’s Flatmate, Simon, was.
She had long been suspicious of her son Chris’s sexual orientation.
Simon’s presence only made her more curious.
Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Chris and his flatmate than met the eye.
Reading his mum’s thoughts, Chris volunteered, ‘I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Simon & I are just flatmates’.
About a week later, Simon came to Chris saying, ‘Ever since your mother came to dinner, I’ve been unable to find the frying pan, you don’t suppose she took it do you?’
‘Well I doubt it, but I’ll email her just to be sure’ said Chris. So he sat down and wrote:
DEAR MOTHER,
I’M NOT SAYING THAT YOU ‘DID’ TAKE THE FRYING PAN FROM MY HOUSE, I’M
NOT SAYING THAT YOU ‘DID NOT’ TAKE THE FRYING PAN BUT THE FACT REMAINS
THAT IT HAS BEEN MISSING EVER SINCE YOU WERE HERE FOR DINNER.LOVE CHRIS
Several days later, Chris received an email from his mother which read:
DEAR SON,
I’M NOT SAYING THAT YOU ‘DO’ SLEEP WITH SIMON, AND I’M NOT SAYING THAT
YOU ‘DO NOT’ SLEEP WITH SIMON, BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT IF HE WAS
SLEEPING IN HIS OWN BED, HE WOULD HAVE FOUND THE FRYING PAN BY NOW.
LOVE MUM
Lesson of the day,
NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER
