An Unusual Education

This story is brought to you by acid reflux disease. If you can't beat it, learn how to make it hilarious.

Burping is an art form in my family. My mom's brother is especially adept, and the skill has been passed down through the generations. I was telling Molly about how I helped her Uncle Ryan hone his burping skills, when she got very upset.

Molly: NO mom. People just DON'T teach anyone how to do that.
Me: Why not?
Molly: It's bad manners.
Me: But some people think it's funny. Burps are kind of bad manners, but they're also funny sometimes.
Molly (giving me a teenage worthy "look"): Mom... I think there's something wrong with you...
