Me: helping to cary in the groceries and proceed to put things away
Her (in humorous yet sarcastic voice): "That's right, make sure you put the beer away first!"

"When are you going to sell those {guitar} amplifiers?"
"Why don't we pick up sushi and eat it at home?"

Her (looking at a 993 in the driveway): You bought a new car today??
Me: Well, it's 2 years old. But I told you this morning that I would probably by a car today if I found the right one. You said, "Do whatever you want." Her: Well, I didn't think you were SERIOUS.

"You're going to drive that thing?"
"You're going to ride that thing?" "You're going to fix that thing?" "When are you going to fix that thing?"

A few years ago I was considering purchase of a Cayman S as a DD. For some reason my wife thought I was talking about selling my '88 Carrera to get the Cayman. After I explained she said, "Why would you want 2 Porsches?" I said, "People often say there are no stupid questions, but that was a stupid question!" She wasn't pleased by my comment.

A few years ago I was looking at a pre-owned side-by-side ATV....
She: You're not bringing that ATV home tonight are you? Me: No! The next evening my newly purchased ATV get's delivered to our house by the seller (I didn't have a trailer at the time so he agreed to deliver it). She: I thought you weren't going to buy it?!? Me: What?!? You asked me last night if "I was going to bring it home last night?" Well, I didn't...it got delivered tonight! She: That's not what I meant!!! ![]() ![]()

~10 years ago Wife is getting a little frustrated while working on one of those twisted nail puzzles.
"How does this one work?" I answered, "That one turns the opposite way." My tone of voice must have been off a little. Her reply, "Well don't be a smartass?" "All things don't work the same." Almost a Berra-ism. We use that all of the time with each other now.
