Jacques Johnson
was beyond
embarrassment
when his
Grandmother dropped
him off in front
of his new friend, Chloe's house.
She was a lovely young girl that
had offered to tutor
Jacques.
It wasn't bad enough that
Gramma had chosen a
French name for him....
or that she
drove a bright
yellow, rusted-out,
beat up old
Renault
(made in France)
but when she
yelled..
"Make sure you practice
a lot of
a lot of
Frenching with that
new frienda yoars"....
he liked to have died.
Gramma meant well
but with her
failing hearing she
had only heard part of
the conversation
when he told her
that he was going
to be practicing
the
French Horn
with his new tutor.
When he got home
he told his Mother
that he would be
walking to any further
tutoring lessons.
LoL Diana, I could tell you some funnies about my hubby, he's hard of hearing also, but then I can't REMEMBER them all. Guess my memories aren't so good!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
I once knew a guy named Jocques
ReplyDeletehe said "it's pronounced JOE Quez"
that's stupid as f#$k
Hilarious...and my gk's think I am clueless!
ReplyDeleteI would die. And walk too. LOL
ReplyDeleteha...us Grandmothers do these kind of things...it's our job ! :)
ReplyDeleteDiana, Poor Jacques...His face says it all. LOL. Hope you are doing well. We are in for more winter..just when I was thinking of decorating the porch. Bummer. I guess it would be a great time to finish sorting around here. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteCute! I used to embarrass my girls by speaking in different accents in front of their friends. Have a great weekend!!
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha! Watch out for anyone nicknamed "Frenchy" too.
ReplyDeleteHi Diana, I'm in the same boat with Sylvia above. Dennis has some hearing loss (he can't decipher consonants very well) and at times it's hysterical what he thinks I've said. Have a great weekend! xo
ReplyDeleteLove it, these old granny types can sure be an embarrassment.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness that was funny I think Andy would have died! Thanks for starting my Friday off right. Sandie
ReplyDeleteOh, how adults embarrass the young ones!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Hahahah. This could be a true story with my late Grandpa. He couldn't hear good and replaced sentences with what he thought he heard. We always got a laugh out of it. We called him "Mr. Magoo". Remember him?
ReplyDeleteNow, My daddy is about at that point.
Lisa
Hahahahaha!! It is a parent and grandparent's duty to embarrass their descendents!
ReplyDeleteROTFLMAO!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha!!!! I would walk too after that remark!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHave a delightful weekend my friend!

My Grandmother used to love to meet our high school boyfriends. She would ask their names, their Mother's names and so on. She would start out asking.." wasn't your Mother a Miller before she married and did she have a cousin names Bess?" She would go on and on and would try to convince us we were all cousins!!! We would die of embarrassment and warned our cousins not to dare let her meet their friends. There is always that one relative that could really make you want to crawl under a rock! I love this story, brought back memories.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Sissie
Your mind is so twisted...LOL. Can't wait until next Friday!

OMG! Too funny.
ReplyDeleteVery funny....I am French...I love the pics of the grand-kids ready for SPD. When I was growing up in very Irish Boston, I asked my mother why we weren't Irish, her response,"We're French, it'll grow on you." It did indeed.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha ha you're a riot, Diana!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL Diana... too funny!
ReplyDeleteAw. Haha. Well, I think it's vital to his development. I meant that embarrassing experience. :D
