Gladys: I heard the jokes you were tellings at the party last night.
Gladys: What have you got against mothers-in-law?
Brutus: Nothing.
Brutus: I like your mother-in-law just fine!
Similar to the joke but a true story:Some years back I bought a new car that had a driver’s side airbag only and my wife wanted to know why I didn’t get a car with a passenger side airbag as well. I told her it didn’t come on the car that I wanted but not to worry, when we replaced her car we would get one with a passenger side airbag. She was not amused.
A few years ago, a couple of friends of mine sang the old Ernie K Doe song “Mother-in-law” for their m-i-l at a karaoke thing. Considering they are more of the era of that song than I, I was totally surprised that they weren’t aware of the lyrics before they got up to sing. They thought they were singing her a tribute. Uh, no.

I almost missed the punchline on that one—her mother-in-law would be his mother.
