You think you have a good marriage? Well, at couples therapy my wife and I threw our shoulders out from high-fiving each other so much!

"He’s always so suspicious."
I am not.
"You patted my father down for a wire at Christmas."
He has a moustache.
My wife just made me put the fitted sheet on the bed by myself so I guess we are going back to couples counseling.

— MyMomologue (@MyMomologue) December 19, 2016
Him: YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!
Me: Why are you afraid? What do you think will happen if you refill the soap dispenser?
It was close, then a tie, then we went into overtime, but I emerged victorious. I did it - I won couples therapy!
