Like Father, Like Son-In-Law

(Me, my parents and my boyfriend are sitting in the living room talking. My dad and my boyfriend Jeremy like a lot of the same things.)

Me: *to my mom* “It’s almost scary how alike dad and Jeremy are, isn’t it?”

Mom: “Yeah, it is.”

Dad: *to me* “Oh, honey. I just realized something. You can’t date Jeremy.”

Me: “Why not, dad?”

Dad: “Because he’s my illegitimate son.”

(We all laugh, knowing that he’s joking.)

Me: *to Jeremy* “Honey, I will never be able to sleep next to you in bed again without thinking about that.”

Dad: “Now that’s good birth control.”
