I <3 the TV show...but on VMK, it kinda ruins the whole thing. I guess it gets old after what..? TWO WEEKS!! Honestly, some of the jokes really are VERY hurtful.
Unless you have a mother like mine and then all the jokes are true!
Insult: "Your mother wears army boots."
Disarming response: "No she wears motorcycle boots and sometimes cowboy boots."
Insult: "Your mother's so fat..."
Disarming response: "Yes, we call her Jabba the Hut. One time she got out of her chair so my sister took a picture of her because she was doing something."
Insult: "Your mother's so fat..."
Disarming response: "One time my brother and I took her bra and wore it on our heads like a conjoined Easter bonnet. Then we both wore a pair of her underpants, one of us in each leg. My sister took pictures."
Insult: "Your mother's so crazy..."
Disarming response: "Yes, she's been involuntarily committed to the psych ward three times, that I know of."
Insult: "Your mother's drinks so much..."
Disarming response: "She drinks a fifth of coffee flavored brandy mixed with a gallon of milk every day. Usually she has to send someone to the liquor store to buy more. If the liquor store is closed, she sends someone to buy her a case of Red, White and Blue beer (FYI that's a really cheap and really bad tasting beer)."
My mother doesn't do as much stuff lately but you can guess that my family has a response for most any mother insult you can come up with. Thankfully, we have a good sense of humor too.
If you really want to disarm someone when they try to insult your mother, just say something like, "At least I have a mother and she loves me."
