Old house renovations.

My dad and I were working on a 150+ year old house recently.

We go to fill the outer walls of one room with insulation, and while cutting out holes in the tops of them we smell something funny. Rats had made a single section of one wall the dedicated toilet. Without missing a beat my dad says "That's some shitty insulation."

When I was renovating my house, I found a secret stash hidden in the walls.

Someone drew a mustache on the wall behind the wall paper.

So I heard you live in an old funeral home...

My mom and her boyfriend recently bought an old funeral home and are renovating it to turn it into a house. While out to dinner with some extended family, my mom's boyfriend's 2nd cousin says, "so I heard you live in a funeral home.. that's interesting" to which his aunt replies, "yeah, we've all been DYING to come visit."

Classic.

This apple didn't fall far from the tree

Bit of context: Mum and dad are visiting my house which I'm renovating. Today's job is to put on new doors. We are sitting watching TV and finish watching a few episodes.

I say, "ah well these doors aren't suicidal".

Mum gives a quizzical look.

Dad says, "yep they won't hang themselves."

Same wavelength.

Dadjoked nearly all of my coworkers

Before a staff meeting, a coworker was talking about living in a renovated church with 15 other people. He said it's just like any other big house, they hang out, party, etc., then someone asked if they drink on the altar.

I said, "yeah, it's a great place to drink. You only need to bring water."

Home renovation

Out at poker with the guys- friend who just purchased his first house shows up. We ask if he's moved in yet, but he's still renovating.

"There's just a bunch of studs in the kitchen right now"

"Oh, well why didn't you invite them too?"
