A young couple got married and left on their
honeymoon. When they got back, the bride immediately
called her mother. Her mother asked, "How was the
honeymoon?"
"Oh, Mum," she replied, "the honeymoon was
wonderful! So romantic..."
Suddenly she burst out crying. "But, Mum, as soon as
we returned Sam started using the most horrible
language...things I'd never heard before! I mean, all
these awful 4-letter words! You've got to come get me
and take me home.... Please Mum!"
"Sarah," her mother said, "calm down! Tell me, what
could be so awful? What 4-letter words?"
"Please don't make me tell you, Mum," wept the
daughter, "I'm so embarrassed, they're just too awful!
Come get me, please!"
"Darling, you must tell me what has you so upset. Tell
your mother these horrible 4-letter words!"
Still sobbing, the bride said, "Oh, Mum, they were words
like dust, wash, iron, cook!
