Another day carrying my wife
Another day carrying my wife
Vytatutas Kirkliauskas, with his wife Neringa, won the annual wife-carrying championships in Finland on Saturday. It was the second consecutive victory for the Lithuanian couple in the international event, held in Sonkajarvi, Finland. They ran an 830-foot obstacle course, walking in mud and crossing waist-high water and wooden barriers in just over one minute. The prize is the wife’s weight in beer. The passenger must weigh at least 108 pounds and unusually hangs upside-down across the male contestant’s back, her legs wrapped around his neck as he runs the course.
Husband: You know it’s a proven fact that women talk twice as much as men!
Wife: That’s because we have to repeat everything we tell our husbands!
Husband: What?
“I came home from the golf course today. The wife had left a note on the refrigerator: ‘It’s not working, I can’t take it anymore! Gone to stay with my mother.’ I opened the fridge, the light came on, and the beer was cold. What was she talking about?”
My wife and I were discussing our shared household responsibilities. I contended that the chores were shared equally between us, she claimed to be unfairly overworked. After much debating, my wife ended her argument with, “‘I do things around the house that you aren’t even aware of.” “Like what?” I asked. To which she smugly replied, “see, I told you so.”
Wife: “There’s a classified ad here where a guy is offering to swap his wife for a season ticket to the stadium.”
Husband: (smirks) Wife: “Would you swap me for a season ticket?”
Husband: “Absolutely not,”
Wife: “How Sweet!”
Husband: “The season’s more than half over!”
