Well, before my wife died, we had an argument about me talking about stuff referring to it as, "before my wife died" solely because until she dies its always before my wife died.
You could fix this joke by instead saying "before my wife's death" or "before the death of my wife", and having her just say "that's very disrespectful".
But why would your wife say "it's very disrespectful to refer to them that way"? That doesn't make sense either
It already doesn't make grammatical sense because your wife hasn't died, so you can't refer to it happening in the past tense - you'd have to say "before my wife dies" which ruins the joke.
Bedore my wife will have died
You're not wrong Walter, you're just an asshole
Died is the past tense of the word die. I think in this case they are indeed wrong.
It's ok to say "I loved my wife, I still do, but I did previously too." Since the love occurred in the past tense that makes sense, but since her death has not occurred I do not believe OP is grammatically correct.
Whippin' out Mitch Hedberg to win an argument is the best internetting I'm gonna get to see today
Is this like how I used to introduce my first ex wife to people as "My First Wife" while we were still very much married?
For some reason she did not find it as amusing as I did? I wonder if its funny now?
I like my wife too much to make jokes like that. That's kind of awful, really.
I like you’re wife too
