A humorous tale of appetite, marriage, and expectation
Morning rituals are a staple in many households, and breakfast time is often a chance for couples to connect before the day begins. Picture this: the kitchen is filled with the rich aroma of fresh coffee and the sizzle of bacon on the stove. A caring woman asks her husband at breakfast time, “Would you like some bacon and eggs, a slice of toast, and maybe some grapefruit juice and coffee?”
He gently declines. “Thanks for asking, but I’m not hungry right now. It’s this Viagra,” he admits. “It’s really taken the edge off my appetite.”
Hours pass and lunchtime comes. She tries again: “How about a bowl of soup, homemade muffins, or maybe a cheese sandwich?” But he still refuses, repeating, “It’s the Viagra—it’s really spoiled my need for food.”
As the evening arrives, she makes one last effort, offering a delicious dinner: “Would you like a juicy rib eye steak and some scrumptious apple pie? Or maybe a rotisserie chicken or tasty stir fry?” But he shakes his head and says, “No, it’s still the Viagra. I’m not hungry.”
Finally, the punchline: exasperated and hungry after a whole day of caring and cooking (with nothing eaten), she replies: “Well, would you mind getting off me? I’m bloody starving.”
This playful and risqué joke captures the humor that can be found in everyday married life. It highlights how couples sometimes juggle expectations and each other’s needs in unexpected ways. Beneath the laughter lies a simple truth: clear communication about what we want or need makes a difference, especially when it comes to love—and food!
In a world where serious news dominates, it’s stories like this that remind us a little humor can go a long way. Next time you’re offered breakfast, consider: there might be more to it than just a meal. And, never underestimate the power of sharing a good laugh together.
