I love it when they fight

My friend and her husband are in a big ass fight because he bought shiny black loafers that have tassels for extra entry points into the dorkdom of Dorkville.

Every once in a while these two will get into a doozy over something like this. One time they almost bought the lawyer over the foil wrappers from creamer cartons. Seems she habitually left them on the counters and he was extremely bothered by this and she was bothered that he was so bothered. As a solution, she started putting them in strange places, like his pocket, his checkbook, breifcase, etc. Little foil love notes in places that would remind them both not to take life so seriously when it comes to small garbgage.

By the time they both come around everyone has been sufficiently entertained.

He's not ready to laugh yet, but she's already working out the details of the comedy routine. I told her she could extend a branch by buying him some shoe polish and some scissors for the tassles.
