Apparently the Greek philosopher Socrates once said “By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.”
It seems that a lot of people on Twitter are caught somewhere between good and bad with their spouses and have thus turned into tongue-in-cheek-happy philosophers.
If you don’t understand what I mean, have a look for yourself.
13. If wishing made it so…
Ah, I see what you did there.

12. You’re toast
Why are these things still the most fickle pieces of technology?
My husband annoyed me last night so I adjusted the toaster settings slightly this morning.

11. Work, work, work
We’re all learning brand new things about each other.
I miss the days when my work wife and my wife wife were different people.

10. Sock it to ’em
It’s called the clothes pile and it’s a sacred place.
MIL: You have to teach them really young to pick up after themselves
Me: *watching my husband take off his socks and leave them in the middle of the living room*

9. Standard definition
Oh cool so we’re getting a divorce then?

8. The great outdoors
Wow, you’re practically an explorer.
I just got my wife a giant ice coffee from my trip to the outside world so don’t tell me I don’t know a thing or two about foreplay.

7. On a roll
But did he put it overhand or underhand? Because there is a correct answer.
My husband put the toilet paper on the roll.
Does that mean I have to do that thing he likes?

6. The cold shoulder
Is this dude famous on Twitter JUST for having an annoying marriage?
I have a cold and it’s pretty bad but my wife has a husband with a cold and apparently that’s way worse.

5. In the mood
We gotta set real expectations for those coming of age.
Why isn’t porn more realistic? Like why isn’t there one with a husband and wife and the wife chokes violently on her spit and the husband gets alarmed they spend a good 5 mins with her coughing and him smacking her on the back and then the mood is gone so they go get donuts?

4. Seek and ye shall find
Solid medical burn right there. Gotta get you to the burn unit.
Surgeon: I can't find the clot
Wife: *from gallery* oh BIG surprise

3. Birds of a feather
I guess we all gotta have a hobby.
#Quarantine week 3. My wife has started throwing baby showers for all the birds nesting in our backyard. Please send help. pic.twitter.com/qkNty8Vw3j

2. Shower power
I mean it’s either that or talking about things that bother you.
Due to personal reasons, I’ll be flushing the toilet every time my husband showers this week.

1. Yes man
