SirCranksalot Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 A newlywed farmer and his wife were visited by her mother, who immediately demanded an inspection of the place. The Farmer had genuinely tried to be friendly to his new mother-in-law, hoping that it could be a friendly, non-antagonistic relationship. To no avail, she kept nagging them at every opportunity, demanding changes, offering unwanted advice and making life unbearable to the farmer and his new bride. While they were walking through the barn, the farmer's mule suddenly reared up and kicked the mother-in-law in the head, killing her instantly. At the funeral service a few days later, the farmer stood near the casket and greeted folks as they walked by. The pastor noticed that whenever a woman would whisper something to the farmer, he would nod his head yes and say something. Whenever a man walked by and whispered to the farmer, however, he would shake his head, no and mumble a reply. Very curious as to this bizarre behavior, the pastor later asked the farmer what that was all about. The farmer replied, "The women would say, 'What a terrible tragedy' and I would nod my head and say, 'Yes, it was.' The men would ask, 'Can I borrow that mule?' and I would shake my head and say, 'Can't. It's all booked up for a year.'
OhioFisherman Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 LOL! I could have used that mule!
Headhunter Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 LOL... thanks for the chuckle. Now we await that person who will say that the joke is in bad taste blah blah blah... HH
DanD Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 If a mule kicked my mother in-law in the head the poor animal would end up with a broken leg. Yup she's a cement head 100%. Dan.
cheaptackle Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 It was in bad taste blah blah - now nobody else needs to say it so I can jump in and relate just how I had to explain why I was laughing my butt off in school this morning - TWICE! The first time was when I read the joke, the second time was when I was just thinking someone would hop all over it saying it wasn't PC - that's when the teacher read my screen and said that was disgusting! Couldn't bring myself to explain why I was laughing all over again, sure didn't want to tell her I was laughing at her and why! I gotta stop reading this stuff at school (but I can't!) Michael
SirCranksalot Posted October 29, 2016 Author Report Posted October 29, 2016 I would have paid him double what he wanted and bought that mule!!!
Beans Posted October 29, 2016 Report Posted October 29, 2016 My first wife's mother was a gem of a woman...too bad some of it didn't rub off on her daughter...her I could have used that mule...
GBW Posted October 29, 2016 Report Posted October 29, 2016 I no longer have a mother-in-law but I might still go mule shopping to have it 'step up' and sort out a few others...
i2cool2fool Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I think I'll tell this joke to my mother-in-law at Christmas dinner.
