Overheard at the Dinner Table

Honestly, I am not sure how "incest" became the topic of conversation between my boys.

(I'm pretty sure I don't want to know. *ahem*)

Nonetheless, last week Josh and Matthew were arguing with each other about the correct usage of the word. Essentially, they were debating whether "incest" is a noun or a verb. One said, "You would say they are 'engaging in incest.'" And the other retorted, "No! You'd say, 'Do you want to incest?'"
Brian stepped in to put an end to the dispute and said, "I think 'engaging in incest' is appropriate."

When the boys' eyes got HUGE and the three of us started laughing hysterically, Brian realized his words didn't come out the way he'd intended.
