Why does your wife do that?

Abdul Karim · 10-12-2018, 10:52 AM

Discussing running a car in with my wife, we hit a problem when I got to 'limiting the revs'....

The Count 'For the first six hundred miles, limit the revs to four thousand'.

The wife. 'The what?'

The Count. 'The revs'.

The wife. 'I have no idea what you're talking about'.

The Count. 'You know the revcounter in your car'.

The wife. 'No'.

The Count (desperation beginning to show in his voice). 'Every car you've ever had, had a revcounter. Did you not notice?'

The wife. 'No. What does it do?'

The Count (reaching for the very large Valium pills, whilst realising he's on a hiding to nothing). 'How do you know when to change gear?'

The wife (beginning to take on the tone of voice that an argument is imminent). 'I don't need to be told, I just know'.

The Count (taking the Valium pills with a large glass of Jack). 'Perhaps it's best that you continue that way'.

Conversation ends, the Count, head in hands, decides to climb Everest wearing nothing but a tutu, being the easier option.
