Marriage Counseling with a Twist

After 30 years of marriage, a husband and wife sit in front of a therapist. The wife starts in on a long list of grievances: "He doesn't listen to me, he's distant, we haven't been close in ages. I feel neglected, lonely, unloved..."

She keeps going and going, pouring out years of frustration. Finally, the therapist stands up, walks around his desk, and approaches the wife.

He asks her to stand and proceeds to lean in and give her a long, passionate kiss. The husband looks on in surprise, and the wife? She's left completely speechless by the intensity of their therapist's kiss.

The therapist turns to the husband and says, "Your wife needs this at least three times a week if you're serious about saving your marriage. Can you manage that?"

The husband sits there, thinking for a moment before responding, "Well, sure. I can bring her by on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays."

Now that's one way to follow doctor's orders! But sometimes, people just can't seem to figure out where they are… or even what they're wearing.

The Case of the Mismatched Uniform

After a long shift, a police officer finally gets home, tired out of his mind. Not wanting to wake his wife, he tiptoes into the dark bedroom and peels off his uniform, leaving his clothes on the floor.

He's about to climb into bed when his wife groans from under the covers, "Honey, could you run down to the store and get some bread for the kids' breakfast tomorrow?"

Grumbling, he pulls his clothes back on without turning on the light and heads out the door. At the corner store, he tosses the bread on the counter and barely makes eye contact with the cashier.

"Hey Jerry," the cashier says. "Did you get a new job?"

Confused, the officer replies, "Uh, no. I still work for the police department."

The cashier looks him up and down and smirks. "Then why are you wearing a fireman's uniform?"

That's one guy who really needs to pay closer attention! And speaking of things not being quite what they seem, this next family takes the cake when it comes to unusual names.

A Town Full of Bobs

A reporter heads to the home of a woman known for having the highest welfare payments in town. Curious, he knocks on the door and is greeted by a young, cheerful woman. He introduces himself and then starts asking her questions.

"And what are their names?"

"Bob," she says with a smile.

"All of them?"

"Yup! Every last one."

The reporter blinks, clearly confused. "But… what if you want them to come inside, or call them for dinner? How do they know who you're talking to?"

"I just call out, 'Bob, it's dinnertime,' and they all come in to eat," she replies, shrugging.

"And what about when you want only of them to do something?" The reporter asks.

"Oh, that's easy," she says. "I just call them by their last name."

The Quest for the Perfect Wife

An extremely handsome man is on a mission. He believes he's destined to marry the perfect woman so they can have extraordinarily beautiful children. After searching the entire East Coast and finding no one, he moves west, where he meets a farmer with three gorgeous daughters.

He explains his quest to the farmer, who listens patiently before saying, "Well, you're in luck. All three of my daughters are looking to get married. Take your pick!"

Excited, the man takes each daughter on a date. After the first, the farmer asks, "Well, what do you think?"

"She's lovely," the man says, "but she's just a teensy bit pigeon-toed."

The farmer shrugs, "No problem, try the second."

After dating the second daughter, the man returns. "She's great, but she's just a teensy bit cross-eyed."

"Fair enough," the farmer says. "You should meet my third daughter."

The man takes the third daughter out and returns the next day, ecstatic. "She's perfect! I want to marry her!"

They wed quickly, and soon after, their baby is born. But when the man visits the nursery, he's horrified to see the ugliest baby he's ever laid eyes on.

Rushing to the farmer, he demands, "How could this happen?! She's perfect, and I'm perfect! How do we have such an ugly baby?!"

The farmer chuckles and says, "Well, my daughter was just a teensy bit pregnant when you met her."

"Sir, do you know how fast you were going?"

"Yes, officer, I'm really sorry, but I'm in a bit of a hurry. I have to get to—"

The officer cuts him off. "In a hurry, huh? Well, I'm taking you in. You can wait for the chief to get back, but it'll be a few hours since he's at his daughter's wedding."

The man sighs, looking down at his hands. "I doubt he'll be in a good mood when he gets back."

"Why do you say that?" the officer asks.

The man looks up and says, "Because I'm the groom."

Mortified, he calls the florist, ready to give them a piece of his mind. After a lengthy tirade, the florist finally speaks.

"Sir, I'm really sorry about the mix-up, but try to look on the bright side. Somewhere, there's a funeral happening today with a card that says, 'Congratulations on your new location!'"
