When we are married, we often feel as if were are in a position to ask anything of our significant other. I’m not necessarily talking about asking them to do things, I’m talking about asking them personal questions. Sure, we might be husband and wife, but that doesn’t give us a license to say anything that is on our mind. After all, it is nice to be nice and if we hurt their feelings, it might come back to bite us in the end. That is what happened in this joke and it is something that you will enjoy because it is true to life.
One evening, a man came home from work and found his home completely upside down:
His three children, still in their pajamas, eating snacks from the fridge, the entrance rug lying on the table, the television in the living room blasting cartoons loudly, and all the furniture in the room covered in stuff.
The kitchen sink was full of dishes, the leftovers from breakfast were scattered all over the counter, and crumbs covered it as well.
The man hurried up the stairs, jumping over toys and piles of clothes, worried that his wife might be sick or that something had happened to her.
When he entered the bedroom, breathless, he found her lying happily in bed while still in her pajamas, reading a book.
Hearing his heavy breathing she looked at him, smiled, and asked how his day had been.
The surprised man was completely confused and asked his wife, “What happened here today?”
The woman smiled at him and replied,
“You know how every day when you come home you ask me what I did that day?”
“Yes,” replied the man, astonished.
“Exactly,” replied the woman, “Today, I didn’t do any of it.”
