“Help him? No way! It’s pitch dark and pouring rain!”
I gave him a look that could melt ice. “Do you remember when our car broke down last winter? Those kind strangers who pushed us out of that ditch? Don’t you think it’s our turn now?”
With a groan of defeat, he got dressed and stepped outside into the cold as I watched from the window.
“Hey, where are you?” he called out to the guy.
“Over here,” the voice replied.
“Where exactly?”
“On the swing set!”
The look on his face when he stormed back inside, dripping wet, was priceless.
4: A Recently Single Woman Buys a Flashy New Corvette
When life gives you lemons, some people buy a Corvette.
A newly divorced woman decided it was time to splurge on something that screamed independence. She drove off the lot in a shiny red Corvette and hit the highway, ready to embrace her new chapter.
Feeling the thrill of the open road, she floored it, hitting 90 mph. Then 100. But her joyride came to an abrupt halt when flashing lights appeared in her rearview mirror.
“Maybe I can outrun him,” she thought, pushing the car harder. But common sense prevailed, and she pulled over.
The officer approached, his face a mix of exhaustion and irritation. “Ma’am, I’ve had a long day. If you can give me an excuse for speeding that I’ve never heard before, I’ll let you go.”
She didn’t hesitate. “Last week, my husband ran off with a cop. I thought you were trying to bring him back!”
The officer tried to keep a straight face but eventually burst into laughter. “Alright, ma’am,” he said with a chuckle. “Have a nice day.”
5: The Husband’s “Creative” Way to Handle a Hotel Bill
Some people handle unfair situations with logic. Others handle them with pure genius.
After a long drive, a couple decided to stop at a fancy hotel for some rest. Upon checking out, they were presented with a bill for $350.
“This must be a mistake,” the husband said. “We barely stayed here!”
“No mistake,” the male receptionist said cheerfully. “The fee includes access to our Olympic pool, spa, and conference center.”
“But we didn’t use any of that!”
“Yes, but they were available to you,” he replied with a grin.
