I like Dad’s explanations.

Oh,did he cut the cheese?

My dad is always telling my mom stuff like this. My mom has taken to saying “Pat! Don’t tell me things!”

I once convinced my mother that a small brown spider with a checkered body was a “Sir Widow,” the male of the black widow species. I let her think that for, mm, a day or two.

His theory is full of holes

I have to remember this one for the grandkids.

I always thought they put the holes in the cheese so they could charge more per slice but give you less.

i prefer my grandpa’s explanation. they’re germ farts.

Yoicks! Is that to slow sales of the product?
