Joke: Wife Came Home 3 Hours Too Late from a Party

She thought she had gotten away with arriving from a night out with her friends way later than what she promised her husband, but the morning after she learned she had put herself in evidence.

Alcohol does affect one’s judgment to the point of making us feel smart and invincible even when we are making a fool of ourselves, and the woman in this joke provided by Bored Daddy had to learn it the hard way.

This wife came up with what she thought was a genius strategy to prevent her husband from getting upset at her for not being true to her word, but she might actually have made it all worse in the most hilarious way.

The other night I was invited out for a night with the “girls.” I told my husband that I would be home by midnight, “I promise!”

Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easily. Around 3 a.m., a bit loaded, I headed for home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hallway started up and cuckooed 3 times.

Quickly, realizing my husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution, in order to escape a possible conflict with him.

(Even when totally smashed… 3 cuckoos plus 9 cuckoos totals 12 cuckoos = MIDNIGHT!)

The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, I told him “MIDNIGHT”… he didn’t seem pissed off in the least. Whew, I got away with that one! Then he said, “We need a new cuckoo clock.”

When I asked him why, he said:

“Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said “oh shit” Cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed another three times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and farted.”

What a mess she made! But if you think this married woman is a wild one, you will be shocked by the baffling response the star of this related joke gave to her husband after he asked her if she had ever been unfaithful to him.

Married life is one of the richest sources of funny stories. Couples sometimes take many things for granted until a situation comes up to make them surprise each other, but sometimes it all can be forgotten with a good laugh.
