A man thought he was being clever when he told his wife he\u2019d been invited on a week-long fishing trip with his boss. He said it was a great chance for a promotion \u2014 a trip he simply couldn\u2019t refuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He asked her to pack his clothes, his fishing rod, tackle box, and, most importantly, his new blue silk pajamas<\/strong>. The wife didn\u2019t question it out loud, but something about his story didn\u2019t quite add up. Still, she smiled, packed everything, and wished him a \u201cgood trip.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n A week later, the man returned home, cheerful and full of tall tales. He bragged about the \u201chuge fish\u201d he caught \u2014 salmon, bluegill, even swordfish \u2014 and how much fun he\u2019d had. But then he stopped and frowned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBy the way,\u201d he asked, \u201cwhy didn\u2019t you pack my blue silk pajamas like I told you?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The wife smirked, crossed her arms, and said calmly: That\u2019s when the man\u2019s smile disappeared faster than a fish on a broken line. \ud83c\udfa3<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A man thought he was being clever when he told his wife he\u2019d been invited on a week-long fishing trip with his boss.
