1. “Goodbye, Mother” Gone Wrong
One evening, a couple dressed up for a night out, ready to leave when their mischievous cat darted inside. The husband ran to shoo it out, leaving his wife to explain the situation to the taxi driver.
“He’s just upstairs saying goodbye to my mother,” she said casually.
Moments later, the husband returned, flustered. “Sorry, that took forever. The old thing was hiding under the bed, and I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her out!”
The taxi driver cleared his throat and started the car without a word.
2. Morning Breath vs. Stinky Feet
A nervous couple confessed their fears before their wedding.
“I have smelly feet,” the groom told his dad.
“Just wear socks to bed,” his father advised.
The bride confided to her mom, “My morning breath is awful!”
“Wake up early, make breakfast, and brush your teeth before he notices,” her mother suggested.
Six blissful months passed until one morning, the groom woke in panic, realizing he’d lost a sock.
As he frantically searched the bed, his wife groggily asked, “What are you doing?”
He replied in horror, “I think you swallowed my sock!”
3. “Ten Dollars is Ten Dollars”
John always dreamed of riding in an airplane at the fair, but his wife refused. “Ten dollars is ten dollars,” she’d say.
At 71, John begged again. Hearing this, the pilot offered a deal: “I’ll take you both up for free if you stay silent during the ride. If you speak, it’s ten dollars.”
The pilot pulled stunts and flips, but the couple stayed quiet. When they landed, the pilot asked how they managed.
John admitted, “I almost said something when my wife fell out, but ten dollars is ten dollars.”
4. The “Perfect” Husband
At the golf club, a man took a call on speakerphone, drawing everyone’s attention.
“Can I buy a $1,000 leather coat?” his wife asked.
“Sure,” he said.
“The $60,000 Mercedes is available; should I get it?”
“Go for it,” he replied.
“And the $950,000 house we love is back on the market. Can I make an offer?”
“Offer $900,000,” he said calmly.
After hanging up, he turned to the room. “Whose phone is this?”
5. The Flashlight Holder’s Verdict
During a blackout, a paramedic delivered a baby while a 3-year-old held the flashlight. When the baby cried after a light slap, the paramedic asked the child for her thoughts.
“You should’ve smacked him twice,” she said. “He shouldn’t have crawled in there in the first place!”
6. The Farmer’s Mule
A farmer’s wife nagged him endlessly until one day, while delivering his lunch, she was accidentally kicked by his mule. At her funeral, the farmer nodded politely to women but shook his head at men.

The farmer replied, “The women complimented my wife. The men asked if the mule was for sale.”
7. She’s a Chicken
