Get Me a Beer Before It Starts

A man came home from an exhausting day of work, plopped down on the couch in front of the television, and told his wife, “Get me a beer before it starts.”

The wife sighed and got him a beer.

Ten minutes later, he said, “Can you get me another beer before it starts?”

She started getting cross, fetched another beer, and slammed it down next to him.

After another 10 minutes, he finished his beer and said, “Quick, get me another beer; it’s going to start any minute now.”

The wife was furious. She yelled at him “Is that all you’re going to do tonight? Drink beer and sit in front of that TV? You’re nothing but a lazy, drunken, fat slob, and furthermore…”

The man sighed, “And so it starts.”
