Parents Tell Their Kids They\u2019re Getting Divorced But What They Do Next Is Hilarious\n

An elderly man in Phoenix calls his son in New York and says,
\n\u201cI hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough.\u201d\n

\u201cPop, what are you talking about?\u201d the son screams.\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t stand the sight of each other any longer,\u201d the old man says.\n

\u201cWe\u2019re sick of each other, and I\u2019m sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her,\u201d and he hangs up.\n

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone.\n

\u201cThey\u2019re not getting divorced if I have anything to do about it,\u201d she shouts, \u201cI\u2019ll take care of this.”\n

She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at the old man, \u201cYou are NOT getting divorced. Don\u2019t do a single thing until I get there. I\u2019m calling my brother back, and we\u2019ll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don\u2019t do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?\u201d and hangs up.\n

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife and says, \u201cOkay, they\u2019re coming for Thanksgiving\u2026now what do we tell them for Christmas?\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
