I don't know how I missed it.

I guess these days not everyone hears it growing up?

Seems I need to widen my view.

Haha, I was sure I'd read that post, but had to look for quite a while to find it again, myself, for some reason.

I'm actually not sure I heard it until after it was on The Office and it was suddenly everywhere, constantly. If I did, it wouldn't have been long before that. "Your mom" was big (LOL, yeah she was) when I was a kid, though.

Didn't expect my first comment to be so controversial!

I just asked a few friends if they thought it came from the show or not. The first person that responded thought it had come from the show as well. The second knew the joke hadn't originated from there, but attributed its popularity to appearing on the show.

It makes sense when you think about it. There are probably a lot more 10-12 y.o.s watching The Office vs being told racy jokes by adults.
