Bob treated his wife, Jennie, to a “fancy” restaurant to celebrate their milestone 50th wedding anniversary.
“Order absolutely anything your heart desires, honey,” Bob said generously. “As long as it’s under ten dollars.”
When the waiter arrived, Jennie smiled sweetly and said, “I’ll have the premium ribeye steak.”
Bob nearly swallowed his dentures in sheer shock. “Steak?!” he gasped. “Good heavens, Jennie, that piece of meat costs way more than my very first car!”
Jennie didn’t miss a beat. “Yes, but that car only lasted you a single week. I’ve managed to survive you for fifty whole years.”
When the final bill arrived, Bob stared at the total in absolute horror. “This is outrageous! We could’ve gone on an entire luxury cruise for this price!”
Jennie gently patted his trembling hand and replied:
“Yes, dear… and knowing you, you’d find a way to complain about the ocean there, too.”
