Trigger Mike Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I mentioned the line from Joe kidd, " I keep you around for cold nights and days when there is nothing to do, not to hear you talk ". I warned my wife how much I like it and planned to use it. I thought if I warned her first it would go over better in the spirit it was intended. She has a habit of getting on a horse about something and getting louder as she goes. As we rode home from church her horse was how much we spend trying to farm, and how she didn't want me to buy cows. She didn't want all the tractors we have and planting we do. My son makes a few dollars a year planting red potatoes and selling them to stores and restaurants. Finally as she got louder, I finally decided to quote that line. My son was surprised . She stopped the crescendo of a horse she was on. It seemed awful funny to me. I laughed. Oddly though, it keeps getting mentioned by her hours later, even though I told her I planned on saying it for fun the next time she got mad. Wonder if I should not have warned her first or not. Hmm.

Trigger Mike Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 I think she still lives me, just once in a while says, "I would say something but I'm not supposed to". She let's me hug her though and it's hard to kill a man hugging you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I always use the line from "Titanic" when the sailor told the lady in the life boat: "Shut that hole in your face". I have come to the obvious that it ONLY works if your wife is deaf. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tequila Shooter Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I used to tell my wife that if you see a wood chipper in the driveway you better be nervous. One time she countered me with “you know that they’ll know you rented a wood chipper and they can also trace your DNA”. That’s when I scared her and told her “ I’m just going to steal the wood chipper, chip it into a bayou, and leave it”. She realized that I thought it through.

Catfish pond with a dock followed by a fire due to a 'fuel leak' works, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
