Have you ever wondered what men chat about while they’re out fishing? Typically, their conversations revolve around sports or interesting tidbits about their lives. But when the men are married, it’s almost certain their wives become a topic of discussion. Such was the case with these four fellows who took a fishing trip together and ended up talking about what they had to do to make the outing possible.
Many were grumbling about the ‘honey-do’ lists they had to tackle, but one man stood out with a truly clever approach that likely made the others quite envious. Here’s how their conversation unfolded:
First guy: “You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out fishing this weekend. I had to promise my wife I’d paint every room in the house next weekend.”
Second guy: “That’s nothing! I had to promise my wife I’d build her a new deck for the pool.”
Third guy: “Man, you both have it easy! I had to promise my wife that I’ll remodel the kitchen for her.”
The group continued to fish, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, when it suddenly dawned on them that the fourth guy hadn’t uttered a single word about his own situation.
Curiosity got the better of them, and they asked, “You haven’t said anything about what you had to do to be able to come fishing this weekend. What’s the deal?”
Without missing a beat, the fourth guy replied, “I just set my alarm for 5:30 am. When it went off, I shut off the clock, gave the wife a nudge and said, ‘Fishing, or Sex,’ and she said, ‘Wear a sweater.’”
