Four married men decided to spend a weekend fishing together. After an hour on the water, they started chatting about what it took for each of them to get permission from their wives to go on this trip. The conversation quickly turned into a hilarious comparison of their negotiations.
The first guy sighed and said, “You have no idea what I had to do to be here. I promised my wife I’d paint every room in the house next weekend.”
The second guy chuckled and replied, “That’s nothing. I had to promise my wife I’d build her a new deck for the pool.”
The third guy shook his head and said, “You both have it easy. I had to promise my wife I’d remodel the entire kitchen for her.”
As they continued fishing, they noticed the fourth guy hadn’t said a word. Curious, they turned to him and asked, “What about you? What did you have to do to come fishing this weekend?”
The fourth guy grinned and said, “I just set my alarm for 5:30 am. When it went off, I turned it off, nudged my wife, and asked, ‘Fishing or sex?’ She said, ‘Wear sunblock.’”
The group burst into laughter, realizing that sometimes the simplest approach works best.
