Yesterday, Husband came home with groceries (a gift in itself for him to do the shopping, which he often does--yay, Husband!) and a box.
Neighbor's mother was in the front yard across the street and said,"What's in that box, Larry?"
"It's a gift for my wife--a new Swiffer WetJet."
She replied, "What kind of shit is that, Larry, so she can work?"
Neighbor's mother, how I love thee.
(Husband is a good Husband for the record. We did need a new Swiffer. He's sitting here now testing it in our bedroom..."Boy this one doesn't squirt nearly as far as the old one used to." ...Comedy: I take that where I can get it too.)

What the HELL. I give you lots of comic relief!
Thanks for the laugh--and the reminder to be appreciative to husbands who actually DO the shopping. Mine went last night, and I'm afraid I was a bit hard on him for coming home with several incorrect/inappropriate/insane items...he tried. I should have been nicer :)
Whoa. Probably would have been better if he'd said he bought it so he could mop the floors for you. See, so he asked for it. ;-)
Hilarious!!! Love it
The rule in our house is that a present can't have a cord & plug attached. What a great day! Husband did the shopping AND wet swifered the bedroom!
I bet he was really proud of himself, too. Oh, well. At least you were in his thoughts.
I'm a Swiffer man too. I've documented that in some blog I wrote.
You pair of filthy, kinky bastards! If I play my cards right, maybe one day I'll get a wet-jet on my b'day.
Haha, I love your neighbor!!! And I love the fact that it was your husband who was testing it out :)
LOL "The Price Is Right" is calling you. You'd be a great model.
I got my darling wife a vacuum cleaner this past spring, but it was NOT a gift - she wanted it.
You gave me a great chuckle with this one!!!
I bet he looks good......real good pushing that wet jet!!
Hmmm... we've got dry swiffers over here and i love them. Will have to look out for the wet variety now too
My wife won't let touch let alone use her Wet Jet. Sounds like fun. Maybe I should get my own.
Meanwhile I'm reminded of that Broadway song "Why Can't a Woman Be More Like a Man." Then there'd be fun and appreciation when you were gifted with gadgets.
