Your Death Will Be Ornamental
(My wife did some volunteering for the horticulture department at the local college, and received a few trees, most of them ornamental. My mother-in-law, whom we live with, comes knocking at our door.)
Mother-In-Law: “What are these?” *holds up a bitten into fruit*
Me: “An ornamental pear, I think.”
Mother-In-Law: “Is it edible?” *takes another bite*
Me: “It’s… ornamental.”
Mother-In-Law: “But is it edible?”
Me: “I guess, but I’m not even sure that’s what it is.”
Mother-In-Law: “Well, they sure are tasty! Look it up on your computer and tell me if I’m going to die tonight!” *takes another bite and walks off*
