Three Wise Monkeys

S: The wedding is next Saturday!

H: Already?

S: I still have no dress.  And you need a new tie.

H: I got a tie.

S: It’s a black one. We are not going to a funeral.

H: And the present?

S: What present? We don’t have one!

H: We could give them a Chip N’ Dip.

S: Do you think of the tomato-and-leaves tray from Mad Men?

H: That would be a fun gift.

S: Just for us. They would hate it.

H: Pete from Mad Men exchanges the Chip N’ Dip for a 22-caliber rifle!

S: What would the groom possibly want to do with a gun?

S: I don’t think she’s right.

H: –

S: You and me, I don’t think we have a lot in common.

H: –

S: We accept each other the way we are. We care. Well, we share that humour is an important part in our relationship. What do you think?

H: I too don’t know what she means.

S: But is there something we have in common?

H: We both are round the bend!

She gets off the sofa.

“I’ll be back in a minute. You can continue watching the movie.”

He presses the pause button.

“You find this movie boring.”

She looks at him surprised.

“How do you know?”

“You don’t want me to press the pause button!”
