    If you were his wife and you took that joke as a threat rather than a compliment, you’d be incredibly dumb.

      “I drug my wife…”

      Is a compliment? and speaking of dumb, i didn’t say it was a threat- in the “I’m going to harm you…” sense. I said, if i were here, I’d go have them run a tox panel to see if he was really doing it. There are certain truths to humor, one of which is every joke has some element of truth to it… and the joke is fundamentally about abusing his spouse.

        Is a compliment?

        No. But you also took it out of context in a blatant attempt to misrepresent it. If it were actually so bad, you wouldn’t feel the need to so grossly misrepresent it.

        There are certain truths to humor,

        Agreed. And in this case that truth could be that he thinks his wife is too good for him and he must go to great lengths to get her not to understand it.

        the joke is fundamentally about abusing his spouse.

        Actually, no, the joke was fundamentally about his spouse being too good for him.
