It was a quiet Tuesday evening when a man walked into his bedroom, expecting to unwind after a long day. Instead, he found his wife standing in the middle of the room, a large suitcase open on the bed, folded clothes flying in every direction like confetti at a very angry parade.
He blinked. “Uh… honey? What are you doing?”
She didn’t look up. She just kept folding a sweater with aggressive precision. “I’m moving to Nevada,” she said flatly.
“Nevada?!” he sputtered. “Why Nevada? Did you win a timeshare? Did your book club finally stage an intervention?”
She paused, turned to face him, and delivered her reasoning with the calm confidence of someone who’d just discovered a life hack. “I’ve done the research. I’ve heard that women there get paid $400 for doing… exactly what I do for you. For free.”
The husband froze. His brain began processing this statement at the speed of a dial-up connection trying to load a meme. He opened his mouth. Closed it. Opened it again. No words came out. So he just nodded slowly, backed out of the room, and closed the door very gently.
Hours passed. The house was quiet. The wife zipped up her suitcase, slung it over her shoulder, and headed for the front door, ready to start her new, highly compensated life in the
Silver State.
But as she reached for the doorknob, she heard a familiar sound behind her: zip… zip… thump.
She turned around.
There was her husband. In the hallway. Packing his own suitcase with the same determined energy.
She raised an eyebrow. “Wait… where are you going?”
He looked up, smiled warmly, and said with perfect, deadpan sincerity:
“I’m coming with you.”
She stared. “…Why?”
He shrugged, snapped his suitcase shut, and delivered the knockout punch:
“Well, if you’re getting paid $400 per… service… in Nevada, I’d like to see how you manage to live on $800 a year.”
