A woman was invited to dinner at her boyfriend’s parents’ home—it was her first time meeting them, and nerves were running high.
As they all gathered around the table for a lovely homemade meal, she tried to stay calm, but a mix of anxiety and a generous helping of broccoli casserole was working against her.
Her stomach started to cramp, and she felt the pressure building. Desperate for relief, she subtly released a tiny puff of gas. It was quiet, but unmistakable.
Before the awkwardness could settle in, her boyfriend’s dad glanced under the table at the family dog napping by her feet and barked, “Skippy!”
Relieved, the woman smiled to herself. Crisis averted.
A few moments later, the stomach rumble returned—worse than before. This time, with a bit more confidence, she let out a longer, louder one.
Again, the dad scowled at the dog and snapped, “Skippy, knock it off!”
Her smile grew wider. This dog’s a life-saver, she thought.
But then came the final round. Her belly groaned like a freight train pulling into the station. Without hesitation, she let loose a monstrous blast that echoed off the dining room walls.
The boyfriend’s dad threw down his fork, glared at the poor dog, and shouted, “Skippy, for God’s sake, move away from her before she craps on you!”
