Bedroom conversation

SCENE FROM A BEDROOM WHERE A HUSBAND & WIFE ARE SAT UP IN BED HAVING A CONVERSATION:

HUSBAND: Hey Liz, do you know that Tom in number 59 passed on schizophrenia to his son?

LIZ: I do, yes.

HUSBAND: And do you know that Mick in number 64 passed on asthma to his son?

LIZ: I do, yes.

THEY PROCEED TO MAKE LOVE & ARE LYING THERE STARING AT THE CEILING TRYING TO CATCH THEIR BREATH.

HUSBAND: Hey Liz, do remember that conversation we just had just twenty minutes ago?

LIZ: I do, yes.

HUSBAND: Well, will you go into the en suite and shave your p*ssy and we'll make love again then?

LIZ: What exactly are you trying to get at?

HUSBAND: What I'm trying to prove is that 'what's in the cat goes into the kitten'!

THEY BOTH SPLUTTER OUT LAUGHING.

END OF SCENE.

I'm not sure what the exact joke is here... perhaps you could explain it for me.... although looking at Liz's lines which are 'I do, yes' 3x and 'What' I'm not sure I want to know.

I am completely confused. I feel I should be offended, but don't know why.

That is filthy I like it but I don't get the ending, a really good conversation though funny

Apologies in advance if I've offended anyone (particularly the ladies!)

There's a phrase we use here in Dublin that if a father passes something he has onto one of his kids goes 'what's in the cat goes into the kitten'. Therefore, if the couple make love before and after the lady shaves her P*SSY 'what's in the CAT goes into the KITTEN' also!

I know it's dirty but I think it's very funny too...however I accept that it may offend some but we all have to have a laugh at and not take ourselves too seriously!

I have had it explained and I am still not sure I get it.

I don't get this bit.

Sorry Macker! Nothing worse than people making you explain a joke, I know.

I may be very very stupid, but I still don't really get it. Anyway, maybe it just isn't aimed at me.

And my offence is neither here nor there - I don't have a right not to be offended.

Phew, thought it was just me! :)

I think it is a great sketch, but the end bit gets lost in translation that's all, maybe a universal saying for what's in the cat goes into the kitten is needed, I can't think what we say in Wales but if it comes to me I will let you know. And I never take myself seriously or anybody else I meet.

Good luck and carry on regardless

I am just guessing, but is it that the shaved pussy makes the wife appear prepubescent, so that what has been in the unshaved wife (the "cat") has also been in the shaved wife ("the kitten"); thereby giving a new meaning to a popular Irish phrase, which is actually about hereditary?

Completely incomprehensible, Macker.

It is something like the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but I am sure there is another one we use

This one's gone totally tits up, it started off as a sketch and has now turned into discussion on phrases.

Macker no offence but if you are funny in company then good on you as I have no doubt you have your mates in stitches.

However your ability to translate that humour into a written format is shocking and needs to be urgently reviewed.

I hate being negative lad but I do enjoy swearing so if you want to tell me to f**k off please do so, but do shout it as your at the back of a very long queue.

I think this bit is great:

LIZ: I do, yes.

It is after that I think it starts to get lost in translation, follow that conversation up with something that everyone understands and it is fine.

LIZ
Rubs Pregnant stomach

You mean about passing things onto your son?

HUSBAND

Yes, what if he's as thick as me and always has to do night shifts

LIZ

I'll be relived if it's white.

HUSBAND
Oh my god!
