As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection. A thick slab of ham, a fresh bun, crisp lettuce, and plenty of expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard. The corners of his jaws aching in anticipation, he carried it to the picnic table in his backyard, picked it up with both hands, but was stopped by his wife suddenly at his side. "Hold Johnny (their six-week-old son) while I get my sandwich," she said.
He had him balanced between his left elbow and shoulder and was reaching again for the ham sandwich when he noticed a streak of mustard on his fingers.
He loves mustard.
He had no napkin.
He licked it off.
It was not mustard.
No man ever put a baby down faster.
It was the first and only time he sprinted with his tongue protruding. With a washcloth in each hand he did the sort of routine shoeshine boys do, only he did it on his tongue.
Later his wife said, "Now you know why they call that mustard "Poupon."

that is positive to be mad that she ate your sandwich, I have been given pissed at my dad while he ate the different 0.5 of the sub I had for dinner one evening & i became into mad while my mom mentioned she became into going to take my cucumber sandwich I made for a midnight snack previously immediately. yet beating her with a wood spoon till you knocked her subconscious and threw your plate over her head even while she's already down? that's a waayyy overboard for only ingesting your sandwich on you and she or he's only 14. shrink her some slack, you're actually not the only individual who gets hungry & once you're hungry you do no longer incredibly think of too once you're finding for nutrition.

Yes it was funny the first time I read it five years ago in an email forward. But now that I know the punchline, it's not as funny to me.

the narrative is over descriptive but the joke has potential.
