This couple is married for over 50 years.
One day, while watching TV, the husband gets up from his rocking chair.
The wife says: where are you going?
The husband says: the kitchen.
Wife says: why?
Husband says: I want to get some ice cream.
Wife says: Is that all you want, is ice cream?
Husband: I also want lots of whipped cream and a cherry on top.
Wife says: I'll get it for you.
Husband says: No you don't have to.
Wife says: I want to, can't I get some ice cream for my husband?
Husband says: OK, but write it down. You'll forget. You forget things.
Wife says: No I won't. I won't forget.
Husband says: OK. But don't forget. I want ice cream, with plenty of whipped cream. And a cherry on top. You better write it down. You forget things.
Wife says: Enough already. I don't need to write it down. You want ice cream, with plenty of whipped cream, and a cherry on top.
Husband says: Yes. Ice cream, with plenty of whipped cream and a cherry on top.
The Wife goes into the kitchen. She's in there for 10 minutes and when she comes out she hands her husband two eggs scrambled.
Husband looks at the eggs, looks at his wife, and in a raised voice says: I TOLD YOU TO WRITE IT DOWN. YOU FORGOT THE TOAST.
