Horrible Language

A young couple returned from honeymoon, the bride ran to the phone and called her mother, who asked, “How was your honeymoon, dear?”

“Oh, mama!” she replied, “The honeymoon was so wonderful and romantic…” But then, suddenly she burst out crying and said “but, mama, as soon as we returned home, he started using the most horrible language… things I’d never heard before! I mean, all these awful 4-letter words! You’ve got to come get me and take me home. Please mama!”

“Darling, darling,” her mother said, “calm down and tell me, what words could be so awful?”

And, the daughter cried “please don’t make me tell you, mama! I’m so embarrassed – they’re just too awful! Just come and get me, please!”

“Oh, darling, you must tell me what has you so upset… tell me these horrible 4-letter words!”

Still sobbing, the bride said, “Oh, mama… words like DUST, WASH, IRON, COOK…!”
