POLITE DINNER CONVERSATION
There's a man here in Wisconsin looking to build a Hitler museum on his property. I wonder how he brought that one up to the fam.
Mom- How was work today Scott?
Scott- Fine. I have to work a double shift on Monday though. So I'm going to need a car.
Mom- As long as Julie gets to swim class on time, that's fine. Honey, do you need any help with the yard this weekend?
Dad- No, I should be fine. Oh, speaking of the yard, I'm going to build a Hitler museum out in the back. Can you pass the corn, Julie?
Mom- What did you say?
Dad- Pass the corn please, Julie. Sorry dear.
Mom- No, about the Hitler Museum.
Dad- Well, not a museum per say, but a building where people can go to learn the truth.
Amy- Sorry I'm late, did someone just say Hitler?
Scott- Dad wants to build a shrine to Hitler in the backyard.
Dad- Not a shrine, a museum dedicated to the truth. You know, to educate people.
Julie- We learned about Hitler in school last month. Did you know he killed a bunch of people?
Dad- He was misunderstood. People are misunderstood all the time.
Amy- Dad, he's responsible for the Holocaust, he killed millions of Jews.
Dad- Right there, an example of being misunderstood. He just wanted Ava Braun to clean up her shoes. "We've got to get rid of all these shoes," he said. And look how it spun out of control.
Mom- Herbert, what are you talking about? Hitler was not talking about shoes.
Dad- Misunderstandings! His mouth was full and no one wanted to question him. See? This is why you should never be afraid to ask questions.
Julie- Isn't Ava Braun from He-Man?
Scott- That's Evil Lynn.
Mom- The county's never going to let you put up a Hitler Museum, do you remember the fuss the Johnsons went through when they tried to put up that Pol Pot statue in their front yard?
Julie- Is Pol Pot from He-Man?
Scott- That's Mechaneck.
Dad- Already taken care of. I start building on Friday after work.
Mom- They said it was okay?
Dad- I maaaaaaay have told them I was building a barn.
Mom- A barn!?
Amy- Oh Daddy!
Scott- You're totally going to jail!
Dad- It is a barn! A barn of Truth. And instead of raising cattle, I'll be raising awareness about Hitler.
Amy- He invaded Poland.
Julie- Isn't Poland from He-Man?
Scott- That's Eternia.
Dad- So he "invaded" Poland. How do you know the German's weren't invited? You weren't there.
Mom- He invaded dear.
Dad- Like none of us have never over stayed our welcome anywhere? Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was living in a house full of perfect people!
-exit Dad-
Julie- Mom?
Mom- Yes dear?
Julie- Are we going to be on the news?
Mom- Yes dear. Please pass the milk, Amy.
Mom- How was work today Scott?
