The home DNA test has changed the world in ways nobody entirely anticipated. Genealogy websites are full of people who set out to find a distant Irish ancestor and instead discovered an entirely different family on the other side of the city. These three jokes are for them — and for anyone who has ever wondered whether some questions are better left unasked.
A man has six children and is very proud of his achievement. He is so proud of himself, that he starts calling his wife, “Mother of Six” in spite of her objections.
One night, they go to a party. The man decides that it’s time to go home and wants to find out if his wife is ready to leave as well.
He shouts at the top of his voice, “Shall we go home now, ‘Mother of six?'”
His wife, irritated by her husband’s lack of discretion, shouts right back, “Anytime you’re ready, Father of four.”
Fred came home from University in tears. “Mum, am I adopted?”
“No of course not”, replied his mother. Why would you think such a thing?
Fred showed her his genealogy DNA test results. No match for any of his relatives, and strong matches for a family who lived the other side of the city.
Perturbed, his mother called her husband. “Honey, Fred has done a DNA test, and… and… I don’t know how to say this… he may not be our son.”
“Well, obviously!” he replied. “What do you mean?”
“It was your idea in the first place” her husband continued. “You remember, that first night in hospital when the baby did nothing but scream and cry and scream and cry. On and on. And you asked me to change him. I picked a good one I reckon. Ever so proud of Fred.”
