Easter humor
Mar. 27th, 2016 08:22 pmSometimes my sister finds something funny, and it hits her just right and very shortly she's in tears. Uncontrollable. Well this time, I was too.
At Easter dinner, she and my mom were talking about their decorations, and how they didn't have many. My sister had some construction paper eggs hanging from the light fixture over the table. She said she didn't have many decorations this year. Then my mom said she just had the bunny on her front door. So I said "we have Jesus nailed to a cross." And my sister lost it. And then I did too. And my mom says "what's so funny?" which made it even funnier. And I'm picturing this beaten, stabbed man nailed to a pole... in contrast with pastel eggs and fluffy bunnies. So that's funny though not hilarious, but then my sister loses it. Which set me off. I'm still laughing about it.
I'm not going to say you had to be there - you had to be us.
Edited: My sister, a little bit ago, said "So I was trying to explain the Easter decoration conversation to Erica at work today, and I couldn't even get through the entire story!"
