The Bar Lesson

A wife had been complaining for months that her husband spent far too much of his free time at the bar.

Every evening, he would come home late, and she was convinced he was out having the time of his life while she sat at home annoyed.

One night, after hearing the same complaint again, the husband finally said, “Alright, if you think I’m enjoying myself so much, come with me and see what it’s like.”

His wife agreed.

They walked into the bar, sat down at a small table, and the husband looked at her.

“What’ll you have?” he asked.

She shrugged. “I don’t know. I’ll have whatever you’re having.”

So the husband called the bartender over and ordered two glasses of Jack Daniel’s.

When the drinks arrived, he picked up his glass and swallowed it in one quick shot.

His wife watched him, then picked up her own glass carefully. She took a small sip, made a terrible face, and immediately spat it back out.

“Yuck!” she cried. “That’s awful! How can you possibly drink this stuff?”

Her husband looked at her and spread his hands.

“Well, there you go,” he said. “And you thought I was out enjoying myself every night!”
