A Husband's Musical Battle on the Road
Section 1: The Initial Dispute
The man was driving home from his in-laws and started playing his playlist. Just two songs in, his wife announced she was going to turn it off, claiming the music was too loud and ugly. He pleaded with her to let him continue, but she was firm.Wife: How can you like this music? It’s so loud and ugly. I’m gonna turn it off.Me: No, wait. Please, this is my music. Let me be.
Section 2: The Pinky Promise
His wife insisted on turning off the music, but then agreed to let him play one more song. They made a pinky promise.Wife: Ok, ok, but just one more song.Me: One?Wife: One.Me: Ok, pinky promise?Wife: Pinky promise (We pinky promise).
Section 3: The Malicious Compliance
He carefully picked his last song and started "Through the Fire and Flames" which was 7 minutes long. His wife was annoyed as it went on.3 minutes in, I turn to see a confused look on her face.At 4 minutes starts the part with no lyrics, just guitars and drums.At this point, she looks annoyed, but we never back down on pinky promises, so she says nothing.And at the 6-minute mark when it looks like its going to end, BOOM lyrics come back!
Section 4: The Repeat Scenario
The next week, the same thing happened. He tricked his wife again by making another pinky promise.Wife: Hell, no! I ain’t falling for that one again.Me: Ok, ok, ok. Just let me hear the first part of the next song’s lyrics, and we change it, ok?Wife: (Probably thinking maybe 1 minute at most, then it’s over) Ok, just the first part.Me: Yeah, just the first part. (I stretch my hand for a pinky promise.) Pink promise?Wife: (Annoyed) Pinky promise.
Section 5: The Unexpected Song
The song that played next was "Cliffs of Dover" which was only 4 minutes long and had no lyrics. His wife was surprised.And I, fully knowing what song comes next, can’t avoid grinning.Cliffs of Dover which is only 4 minutes long starts playing, but at no point are there any lyrics sung.2 minutes in, I turn to see my wife with an evil grin.Wife: This one doesn’t have lyrics, does it?Me: Nope!
