An inconvenient tuth

An excerpt from Thanksgiving dinner:

Brother: "So I'm thinking about getting a tattoo."

Mom and I, simultaneously: "Of WHAT?"

Brother: "Of the phrase, 'Are you comfortable with your truth?'"

Brooke: "What if they misspell something?"*

Me: "And then your back would say, 'Are you comfortable with your tuth?' You'd have to be a dentist."

I love the holidays.
