Is you wife/lover/girlfriend/inflatable sense of humour odd?
Discussion
Is it me or do partners have an odd sense of humour?
My wife just rang me saying she would be back late. Consersation went like this --
Me: " Hello " ( that's my standard Kings Pawn Gambit defence when it comes answering the telephone )
Her outdoors : " I'm going to be back late because XXXX sister has had to go to the hospital and so I am having to cover her on her stall at the craft fayre"
Me: " OK, no problem, as long as you do not bring home anything made of wicker"
Her outdoors: "Oh, ok"
Me : " Especially Alan Whicker "
Her outdoors : " What? The receptions bad, I have to go now."
If I was married to a 50 year bloke called Stan he would have got and we would both have a giggle ...
Does your other half share a completely different set of comedic principles that guides them through the cosmos?

A) you didn’t say anything funny. You’re lucky your other half is kind enough to not call you our on that hideous attempt. My wife just rang me saying she would be back late. Consersation went like this --

B) why extrapolate your assumption onto everyone else’s other half. FYI mine laughs regularly at my jokes and I suspect yours would too.

Mine thought i was joking today when she said she was going shopping with the daughter and asked what id be doing.
So 5 hours later when she rang and asked where i was, word for word was in the pub with the dog where i said id be.
For some reason this has caused some issue to the fact that she collected the dog and left me there.
Wasnt sure how to feel about it at the time, but got a text about 45 mins later saying tea will be out at 7pm.
This could be my last post as im royally confused by her actions.
Stabbed/poisoned take your pick?

It's not your wife that doesn't have a sense of humour

Phones, esp mobiles in public places, should be used to pass messages ie I'm going to be late home. Jokes and humour should be face to face.

I don't think this thread has gone the way the OP was expecting.Edited by CrunkleFloop on Monday 25th November 11:26
