Jake and John are 6 and 8 year old brothers that thought it was just about time they grew up and turned into men.
John: "You know Jake, I really think we're old enough to be able to use cuss words whenever we want. Dad and his friends do all the time, so why can't we?"
Jake: "You're right - when mom comes down, let's use 'hell' and 'damn' and see what happens."
In a few minutes Jake and John's mother came down the stairs and asked the boys what they wanted for breakfast.
The older boy, John, piped up first.
John: "Aw hell mom, just give me some Fruit Loops."
The mother instantly lost her mind and smacked John across the face. He quickly jumped out of his seat and tried desperately to avoid the flailing arms of his mother as she chased him up the stairs to his room. Jake could hear John crying and his mother screaming all the way across the house.
After a while the mother came back down the stairs straightening her dress and trying to gain her composure. Her face was red with anger.
Mother: "Jake, would you like anything for breakfast?"
Jake: "I don't know, but I'm sure not asking for any damn Fruit Loops."
