Another Old Favorite:

Two boys, twin brothers, John and Bill wake up on the morning
of their 10th birthday. As they are getting dressed, they talk about how old they are getting. They decide since they are getting up there in years, it seems only right that they begin to start cussing.

John: "When should we start?"
Bill: "I think we should start at breakfast"
John: "I think I'll say hell, what about you?"
Bill: "I think I'll say a$s.

So they go downstairs and take a seat at the table. Their mom is in the kitchen humming a tune and she sweetly wishes them happy birthday and asks them what they want for breakfast.

With a wink to his brother, John says "Ah, hell mom, just gimme some Cheerios"

Without even thinking, Mom backhands John right across the mouth, knocking him backwards out of his chair. He is laying there, bleeding from the nose and mouth, and crying.

Mom then looks at Bill and asks just as sweetly what he would like for breakfast.

Bill sneaks a peek at his brother. Pauses for a second. And then says "I don't know, Mom, but you can bet your a$s it ain't gonna be Cheerios"
