One day, a wife came home late after a long day at work. She was tired and wanted to go straight to bed. She kicked off her shoes at the front door, made herself a cup of tea, and turned off all the lights.

She headed towards the bedroom, expecting to be able to remove her makeup, change into her comfy pajamas, finish her tea, and pass out. But instead, she noticed something shocking.

She had expected her husband to be fast asleep in their bed but apparently, that wasn't the case. Two pairs of legs were sticking out of the blanket. There was someone else in the bed with the woman's husband!

The woman could not believe her eyes. Her husband was clearly cheating on her with someone else. At first, she was shocked, then she wanted to cry, but instead, she found herself getting angry.

Blinded by rage, the woman could not figure out what to say or do. She thought of all the ways she could make her husband regret what he did to her. She was already thinking of which divorce lawyer she would get.

The woman almost screamed at him, demanding he confess to her, but a sinister thought stopped her from confronting him right away. She decided that she would teach her husband a lesson he would never forget.

She went to the basement and got a baseball bat. Then she came back into the room and started hitting the blanket with fury. She tore into the couple left, right, and center. There wasn't an inch she didn't hit.

As the couple beneath the blanket moaned and groaned in pain, she jumped on top of them and pummelled them with her closed fists. She let them have it.

When the woman was quite done and all of her energy and anger was spent, she then headed toward the kitchen to get herself a stiffer drink than her now-cold tea that had fallen to the floor. But who was that in the sitting room?

To her disbelief, her husband was sitting in the lounge, calmly reading a magazine. He smiled after seeing his wife and quickly got up to hug her warmly. Then he said words that caused the blood to drain out of her face:

“Hi, darling! Your parents flew out to surprise you and I let them stay in our bedroom. Did you say hello?”

She collapsed on the spot. We can only wonder what happened to her parents! Poor folks. Have you ever made a mistake of this magnitude? We certainly hope not!

THE MAN'S WISH

During his walk along the beach, an Australian man stumbled across an old lamp. He picked it up and rubbed it. A genie emerged, telling him that he had freed him from the lamp.

The genie suggested the man could forgo the three wishes and receive only one wish due to the fact that it was the fourth time in that month that he had been released from the lamp.

The man thought for a while before saying, "I always wanted to go to Hawaii when I was younger, but I was scared to fly. Could you build one of those bridges so I can drive there?"

His wish was laughed at by the genie who encourages him to resolve logistical issues. "How would the supports ever get to the bottom of the Pacific? No, make another wish," said the genie.

So the man explained to the genie that he had been married five times, and his ex-wives had all insisted that he had not shown them all the love and attention they deserved.

Therefore, the man said he wishes he could understand women better and that he wanted to know what they were thinking when they were silent and why they were crying.

Also, the man wanted to understand what they meant by "nothing" and learn how to make them truly happy. Then the genie asked him if he wanted the bridge to have two lanes or four.
