A bloke walks into the pub and asks for a vodka. The bartender looks over at the disheartened man and says, "Bad day?"
"Horrible," the man replies, "I just found out my brother is gay."
The man comes in again the next day, sits down, and orders two double scotches. The bartender lookes at the circles under the man's eyes and queries, "Was today any better?"
"Worse," rasped the man, chugging the drinks, "I just found out my other brother is gay."
"Holy crap," the bartender replied, "does anyone in your family like women?"
"Learned this today as well, not all that great." the man replies with glazed eyes. He bangs his head on the contertop.
"Well?"
"My wife apparently does."
