In a sun-dappled Florida mobile home park, two longtime neighbors—a silver-haired widower and a widow with a penchant for floral dresses—found themselves sharing a table at the weekly community potluck.
As meatloaf and mashed potatoes were passed around, he sneaked glances at her crinkled smile. By dessert time, bolstered by lemon meringue pie courage, he leaned in: “How ’bout we make this permanent? Marry me?”
Six heartbeat-seconds ticked by before her eyes sparkled. “Yes. Yes, I will.”
They toasted with sweet tea, chatting about grandkids and the upcoming bingo night before ambling home—her to Unit 12, him to Unit 14—both glowing with giddy disbelief.
Next Morning
His coffee cup froze mid-sip. Wait—had she actually said yes? The memory had evaporated like morning fog on his patio. Hands trembling, he dialed her number.
“Darlin’, my sorry old brain can’t recall… last night, did you—?”
Her laughter tinkled through the receiver: “I said ‘Yes, yes!’ with every wrinkle on my face!” A beat. “Truth be told, I’m tickled you called… I’d forgotten it was you who asked!”
LOL!! SO FUNNY!Have a nice day!!
An old man placed an order for one hamburger
A silver-haired couple settled into a cozy diner booth and ordered just one meal—a hamburger, fries, and a single drink.
When the food arrived, the husband carefully split the burger in two, divided the fries evenly, and placed the drink between them. They took turns sipping as he began eating his portion… while his wife simply watched, her untouched half still on the plate.
A concerned younger diner approached. “Please, let me buy you another meal,” he offered.
“Oh no,” the old man chuckled. “We share everything.”
As the husband kept eating, his wife waited patiently, occasionally sipping their drink. The observer grew more puzzled—was this some strange marital dynamic? He hesitantly offered again: “At least let me get you another beverage?”
“That’s kind,” the husband smiled, “but we’ve shared everything for 50 years.”
Finally, unable to contain his curiosity, the young man leaned in: “Ma’am… why aren’t you eating?”
She grinned, revealing her toothless gums. “Waiting for the teeth, dear.”
