You're almost right. While I did see humor in it, I saw a lot of complaining.

Your wife is right to have your child consider how she might be hurting someone with what you call a joke. That's just part of being a good parent.

Pranks in general are puerile behavior and every "good" prank is mean. To enjoy a prank, you have to be immune to the effect you're having on people. That's a crappy way to live and a crappy person to be.

It's too bad that you think the possibility of being an adult only lies with women.

In fact, now that I think of it... are you saying you don't like how your wife is and you'd really like a man as a mate? Or do you just tolerate her maturity?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

The wife and I went to Ikea about 6 month ago (1st time). After being in the store for about 1/2 hour they could have offered anything in the store for free to get me to stay and my answer would be - forget it, I'm leaving.

I don't care what they have or how cheap it is, we're never going back.

Thank you for further cementing FP’s point
