There's this guy who's in the
market for a used motorcycle. Always wanted a nice big hog. So
he's shopping around, answering ads in the newspaper, and not
having much luck. One day he comes across a beautiful classic
Harley with a for sale" sign on it. Upon inspection, he is
amazed to find the bike in mint condition. He inquires about it
with the owner:
"This bike is beautiful! I'll take it. But you gotta tell me
how you keep it in such good shape."
"Well," says the seller, "it's pretty simple.
Just make sure that if the bike is outside and it's going to
rain, rub Vaseline on the chrome. It protects it from the rain.
In fact, since you're buying the bike I won't need my tube of
Vaseline anymore. Here, you can have it." So the guy buys
the bike and off he goes, a happy biker. He takes the bike over
to show his girlfriend. She's ecstatic (being a Harley fan). That
night, he decides to ! ride the bike over to his girlfriend's
parents' house. It's the first time he's going to meet them and
figures it will make a big impression. When the couple gets to
the house, the girlfriend grabs her boyfriend's arm.
"Honey," she says, "I gotta tell you something
about my parents before we go in. When we eat dinner, we don't
talk. In fact, the person who says anything during dinner has to
do the dishes."
"No problem," he says. And in they go. The boyfriend is
astounded. Right smack in the middle of the living room is a huge
stack of dirty dishes. In the family room, another huge stack of
dishes. Piled up the stairs, dirty dishes. In fact, everywhere he
looks, dirty dishes. They sit down to dinner and, sure enough, no
one says a word. As dinner progresses, the boyfriend decides to
take advantage of the situation. So he leans over and kisses his
girlfriend. No one says a word. So he decides to reach over and
fondle her breasts. He looks at her parents, but still they keep
quiet. So he stands up, grabs his girlfriend, strips her naked,
and they make love right on the dinner table. Still, no one says
a word. "Her Mom's kinda cute", he thinks. So he grabs
his girlfriend's Mom and has his way with her right there on the
dinner table. Again, total silence. Then, a few raindrops hit the
window and the boyfriend realizes it's starting to rain. He
figures he'd better take care of the motorcycle, so he pulls the
Vaseline from his pocket. Suddenly the father stands up and
shouts: "All right, all right! I'll do the damn
dishes."
