366: Your Mom
| Your Mom |
 Title text: 'It's either 'your mom' jokes or me' 'Then I, like so many men before me, must reluctantly choose your mom.' |
[edit] Explanation
"Your mom" jokes are frequently used by children and pre-teens (perhaps reaching their peak in middle school), and are seen by adults as being a sign of immaturity. Especially when used with great regularity.
We enter in the middle of a conversation about between Cueball and Megan about the status of their relationship. Megan has apparently just said that Cueball turns every conversation into a "your mom" joke and it's becoming unbearable. Cueball immediately turns that sentence into a "your mom" joke, and that seems to be the last straw.
For good measure, Cueball throws in a "That's what she said!" reference, which is a modern American version of the British expression "Said the actress to the bishop". It's used for purposes of double entendre, and gained its most recent surge of popularity as Michael Scott's catchphrase on the television series The Office. Megan simply replies that, "Yes. Yes, it is."
The title text takes the joke a little further, suggesting that Megan's mother has had many lovers in the past.
