The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for March 23, 2023

I learned the best dirty jokes at church camp.

Learned plenty at an early age from adults in backyard BBQs and parties as we kids ran around playing, acting like we weren’t hearing.

Dale, we are all listening here, go ahead….!

I never minded potty jokes. Or fart jokes. I think most women/mothers do, but I still find many of them to be very funny. Sometimes to entertain my young granddaughter I would ask Alexa to fart. We would laugh so hard!

Potty jokes are the only kind he knows. But next, he’ll entertain them with demonstrating the sounds of different kinds of farts. He’ll use his mouth to make some of them.

Some older girls told me dirty jokes, and being young, I didn’t get them. I went home and told my parents in front of their friends. My mother was horrified. My father laughed his butt off.

The jokes some of their friends tell are a lot worse

Beans, beans the magical fruit….

Potty jokes are priceless when you are in elementary school. Dale and Burl are at about a 5th grade level, right? Hmm…that might be a little high, actually.

My fave joke from, adolescence: What did one leg say to the other?……..Hey, look! Shorty’s growin’ a beard!
