Last night, I’m pretty sure that Janelle had two of the best one-liners in the history of “Inappropriate Honeycutt Dinner Conversations”.
Kelly: “Joe, what’s that odd mole on your chin?”
Keith: “A hickey”
Mom: “It’s already been looked at by a dermatologist. <pause> Boy Joe, that sure does look weird…”
Janelle: “Dad REALLY should’ve worn boxers instead of briefs!”
After we’d all dried our tears from laughing so hard, Joe was able to explain that this “boxers vs. briefs” was something Mr. Bartel had told them about in Anatomy Class. Apparently it can sometimes effect the normalcy of one’s children.
This next one might only be funny if you REALLY know our family well…see, my dad likes to say lots of quotable things, but none so famous as “Your name means ‘dirt’ “. Again, probably another long story, involving a waitress of ours 10 years ago at IHOP who was wearing the nametag, “Adam”. Keith may have made a license plate cover out of this quotable and he definitely gave it to my dad for Father’s Day.
Dad: “Janelle, that comment is only funny the first time. The second, it’s inappropriate.”
Janelle: “Boy, you should really make a license plate cover out of that!”
I was sitting across from Keith when this happened. Right before he dissolved into laughter with the rest of us, his eyes practically bulged out of their sockets, obviously thinking, “MAN! I SHOULDA SAID THAT!”
