I'm pretty proud of this one...

I was talking about school with my kids at the dinner table. My son is learning about astronomy in science class.

Me: "Have you learned what a light year is?"

Son: "Yes, it's the distance light travels in 1 year."

Me: "Nope. It's 365 consecutive days when you don't have a lot going on."

My wife threatened divorce, so I know it was a good one.

Got my new classmate today.

Just went to this new class and started conversing with random people, then this girl says that her dad is in Turkey.

Girl: "Yeah, he's a lawyer and travels a lot"

Other classmate: "Oh that's cool, does he ever bring you anything from the places he visits?"

Girl: "Yeah he normally does."

Me: "Let me guess, I bet this time he'll bring you Turkey!"

To which some classmates rolled their eyes and she smiled and said she was a vegetarian, but it was a funny joke. I think I made a great first impression.
