A father was approached by his two children, ages 12 & 14. The kids asked if they could go with friends to see a movie. The father asked what the movie's rating was.

The oldest answered, “It’s rated PG, but it only has a few bad words and a little nudity. I don’t think it would be too much bad stuff in a whole 2-hour movie.”

So, the father told them that he needed to think about it. He went to the kitchen and made fresh brownies. Then he called the kids and explained, “I made you a snack. These are special brownies.”

“Why are they special?"

“I added a special ingredient.”

“What’s the special ingredient?”

“Dog poop.”

Then came the explosion! “Dad, we CAN’T eat dog poop!”

Now, Dad explained, “It’s ok. I only used a little tiny bit of dog poop from the back yard. I don’t think it would be too much bad stuff in a whole batch of brownies.”
