Tale: A woman goes to her boyfriend’s parents’ place for dinner

A woman, feeling anxious as it’s her first time meeting them, goes to her boyfriend’s parents’ house for dinner. They all settle down to a delicious lunch, but the woman’s nervousness and the broccoli casserole quickly cause her to become uncomfortable. Her eyes are practically watering with gas pains, so she takes a covert moment to relieve herself and lets out a little fart. It’s not loud, yet it’s audible to everybody at the table. Her boyfriend’s father glances at the puppy that is lying at her feet and exclaims, “Skippy!” severely before she has a chance to feel humiliated. The woman smiles, relieved that she appears to be off the hook.

The pain comes back after a short while. She immediately puts out a longer, louder fart. The father glares at the dog once again and exclaims, “Dammit Skippy!” The lady grins, even more relieved, and thinks, “Yes!”


The woman notices her gas increasing once again as the dinner goes on. She farts like a train whistle this time, not even thinking twice about it. The father yells, “Dammit Skippy, get away from her before she shits on you!” with a genuinely horrified expression.

Despite her initial anxiety, the woman finds that she is amused and even a little comforted that the dog is to blame for her gas. In a somewhat unusual way, the embarrassing circumstance becomes an unexpected and funny event that breaks the ice. The woman feels more at ease with her boyfriend’s family after the meal, despite her initial humiliation.
