As we were folding laundry, I mentioned that my new pajama pants had a fly but no button it just kind of overlaps and stays closed somehow.
My wife glanced over and said, ‘I think you’ll be okay.’
Unfortunately, both her sisters were sitting there too.
I don’t think I’ve ever regretted asking a follow-up question more.
A smarter man would’ve let that comment go. Instead, I asked, ‘Why did you say that like that?’
She smirked and goes,
‘Trust me babe, there’s not exactly a high escape risk there.’
There was a second where her sisters processed what she meant, and then both of them started dying laughing.
Yeah, definitely more of a grower situation, so the joke unfortunately had enough truth behind it to sting a little lol. She teases me sometimes, but usually not with an audience I honestly think this one just slipped out before she realized her sisters were sitting right there.
TL;DR I mentioned my new pajama pants didn’t have a button on the fly, my wife looked at me and said “you’ll be okay,” and when I stupidly asked what she meant in front of her sisters, she hit me with “there’s not exactly a high escape risk there.” Her sisters lost it, and I realized I’d accidentally walked myself into a very public “grower not shower” joke.
