A new way to make the wife mad

As if I really needed another way, I downloaded a sound file of the Imperial march. That's the music they played every time darth vader entered the scene.

Anywho, I've been clicking on it every time the wife walks into the room lately.

I think it's funny as all get out, her not so much.

I bet some video of said wife's reaction would be a hoot for all of your Pelican buddies to see.



Just sayin'.

Keep that up & your "light saber' will become a useless appendage.

I don't mind bein dumb sometimes, but I try not to do stoopid around the wife

I just flashed back to another one:
My son's name is Kyle.
I have a video file from south park where Cartman is singing "Kyle's mom is a beotch in B minor".

I played it and that one stopped being funny right away. That was back when we weren't married for 19 years.

wire up a light beam detector so it plays the march off whenever the light is broken - cheap to do with old garage door sensors

you step over the beam; she will take a while to figure it out and - for a while - will be unable to figure out how you are doing it (hold your hands up an shrug)

of course, you will STILL get blamed, but...

We need to LOOK for a new way to make/drive her mad? You're kidding, right?

A few years ago, when I was working for the Dairy, one of our convenience store chains thought it would be a good idea to highlight the dairy section by putting a motion sensor-activated noisemaker by the dairy case in each of their locations. When someone walked by, they would hear a long drawn out "Mmmmoooo"

That lasted about a week, until our head office was hit by complaints from several, shall we say "women of a certain size" who thought the noisemakers were making fun of them.

The noisemakers came down.
Some fat cows can't take a joke.
