I want to do grocery shopping on weekends whereas my wife wants to go during the week. We had a small discussion about this this morning:

HER: Make a list. I’ll go get the groceries by myself.

ME: Yeah, and I won’t get what I really want.

HER: That won’t happen: your stuff is easy.

[At that point, I realize she has the upper hand so I have to think quick and come up with this:]

ME: Oh yeah? I want a cyclotron tokamak inverter and it has to fit in the basement. What do you say now?

HER: Don’t be a jackass.

So she won on this point but we’ll see who’s the boss once I get my cyclotron.
