My mom had just moved to the US and was looking for mattresses at a department store. This is how the conversation went between her and a salesclerk.

Mom: Do you have any sponges?
Salesclerk: No ma’am, we don’t sell sponges here.
Mom: But I see advertisement! You sell sponges!
Salesclerk: Sorry ma’am, I think you’re mistaken.
Mom: Yes, you do! You know, those big sponges you can lay on!
Salesclerk: Oh, you mean mattresses??

We own a dude ranch, and my Taiwanese FoB mother is the cook. One day, a guest brought back a fresh trout for her. She cooked it up, put it on a platter, and thinking she was being very polite in offering the best part of the fish, stood in the dining room and said, “Would anybody like some head?”

My mother followed my father along to his doctor’s appointment.

In front of the doc, she told my father, “don’t forget you need to ask for Viagra prescription.”

My father was shocked and asked, “Why?!”

“For your allergies!” she explained.

“ALLEGRA!” dad corrected.

Mom: it seems to me you have high hopes & expectations for our new president
me: well he is better than Bush
Mom: he gives very good speeches and touches everyone’s heart
me: yes
me: i didn’t think i would see a black president in my lifetime
me: but it happened
me: think about the little kids today growing up with a black president
me: that is amazing
Mom: this should have happened long time ago, we shouldn’t look at people only at their skin color
