Babylon Bee ^

Posted on 11/23/2021 12:03:23 PM PST by Pollard

PODUNKSVILLE, GA—According to sources, local wife Kristi Boren has something very obscure and specific that she wants for Christmas, but she also wants her husband to think of it all on his own.

"This gift would be tangible evidence of my husband's deep love and appreciation for me," said Boren. "If he buys me this very specific gift that I've always wanted but never told him about, it will be proof that he really 'gets me' and has been paying attention this whole year!"

Sources say Mrs. Boren has been leaving behind subtle clues since January, like dog-earing a page in a catalog one time, or thinking about it really hard and then looking into his eyes to transfer her wish through the air into his brain.

Husband should buy her a __________.

When she opens it and is disappointed and says she really wanted a ________; husband should say “I know dear. And I ordered it a month ago. It must be in some dang shipping containter. Be here any day. In the meanwhile I wanted to get you something.”

(See? I told you. I’ve been a husband 41 years. I know a few things.)

What she wants for Christmas is obvious. Look again at her picture.

Notice what’s missing.

Then go buy one. About two carats ought to do it.

These days when women pull that kind of crap on me I have no sympathy. That is a woman that would get a power tool for Christmas that I want for myself.

Babylon Bee always comes up with the perfect photo to go with their headlines.
I hope this husband does not let this wife down or there will be hell to pay - that I can guarantee.

______________________________________

If he does let her down and she leaves him - send her over to me. I’ll do what I can for her. Sure will.

Mrs. R2 probably won’t like it though, but...

I skip the middle man and just put what I want in Hubby’s Amazon cart. Got a trailer for the lawn mower from him one year and I just don’t take chances anymore.
