My wife is so ugly... a cannibal took one look at her and ordered salad.

My wife says my lovemaking is like a news bulletin. Brief, unexpected and usually a disaster.

My wife thinks "freedom of the press" means no-iron clothes.

A couple more "wife" jokes and it will be out of my system ...

My wife went shopping for a feminine protection product. She decided on a thirty eight revolver.

My wife will buy anything marked down. Last year she bought an escalator.

MODERN CAPITALISM
You have two cows, milk them and sell your milk overseas.
You open a loan with a Bank to import milk from Vietnam at a higher price, giving your grassland as a collateral.
If, by the end of the year, you have less than 200 cows, you're not able to pay your debt, you lose yoru land to the Bank, and you file for bankruptcy. And national GDP drops, so the money for your welfare is given to the Bank by the Government.

Last night I took the wife out and we passed a really posh restaurant.

What do you think of this place, I said? She replied the food smells fantastic.

I thought why not give her a treat. So I turned round and walked past it again

Very good! I cannot sneak one past you. Here are a couple of my favorites:

Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit.

A woman will doubt everything you say except it be compliments to herself.

We work to become, not to acquire.

Husband picks up a case of beer and puts it in cart.
Wife barks, "What do you think you're doing?"
The husband replies, "They're on sale, only $10 for 24 cans."
The wife says, "Put them back, we can't afford them."

A few aisles further the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream & puts it in the basket.
"What do you think you're doing?" asks the husband.
The wife says, "It's my face cream. It makes me look beautiful."

Her husband fires back, "So do 24 cans of beer & they're half the price!
