A couple had a real humdinger of a fight one day, and stopped talking to each other for a whole week. By Saturday they were still mad, but the wife had a meeting in the afternoon which she had to attend. As she dressed, she found she couldn’t reach her zipper and needed her husband’s help. Not about to talk to him, she motioned with her hands until he got the point. As he zipped her up, the husband jabbed the zipper into his wife's back a couple of times, just to let her know that he was still mad.
When the wife got home a few hours later she saw her husband’s car in the driveway with his legs sticking out underneath it. Burning with righteous indignation over his cruelty earlier in the day, she reached down and grabbed his zipper as she passed, jabbing it in a couple of times to get back at her husband. Vindicated, she walked on into the house, where she got the shock of her life when she saw her husband sitting at the kitchen table drinking a glass of water!
“Who was that man out under your car?” she gasped.
Surprised she was talking to him, her husband replied, “Our new neighbor. He offered to take at look the leak under my car.”
Horrified, the wife told him what she had done, and her husband ran outside to try to explain to his neighbor why someone had just jabbed him with his zipper. He called his friend’s name but know one answered, so the husband bent down and looked under the car. There lay the neighbor, unconscious. The poor fellow had been so surprised when a strange woman jabbed him with his zipper that he sat straight up, hit his head on the car, and knocked himself out cold!
Needless to say, this couple never gave each other the silent treatment ever again.
