My schizophrenic husband got in a car accident trying to give himself road head. He hit a tree thinking he was a contortionist

Similar thing happens to my wife, and as much as she insisted the guy she hit was drunk, the police insisted that he's allowed to be inside the bar she drove through.

Being on the phone and drinking a coke would be a lousy defense anyways...

there's no mentions of cars or driving tho. I think it's just a joke about marital violence, since "accident" is ambiguous

edit: Why the fuck am I getting downvoted? You people see CAR written there?

Your casual misogyny is not the point. The joke only works if at first her excuse seems reasonable, and then the punchline turns it around and MAKES it unreasonable. Otherwise there's no subversion and no joke.

Somebody else already commented it, but it works better if she tries to claim he was drunk. A drunk person could conceivably stumble in front of your car, and it wouldn't legally be your fault if you hit them. Then the punchline actually changes things.

I once ran over a glass milk bottle and wrecked my tyres.

The silly fucker had it hidden under their coat.

Oddly enough a Cop and his Chief in my State, recently got into trouble for arresting a Woman for being Drunk in her own Home, after someone else crashed his Car into a Bush on her Property …

So am I mistaken or is everyone else wrong. The accident that she got in was with a homeless man. So in his defense he can do whatever he wants in his living room.

He didn't have to be homeless.

The humor is the expectation that the man would be at fault for the car accident because being on the phone AND drinking at the same time is very dangerous [while driving].

However expectations are subverted when it is revealed that the wife hit the man in his own living room. Actual living room, in a home. Therefore the man was not being dangerous, did not cause the accident, and above that it is wild that the woman drove through someone's house and hit them in their own living room.

Why say Coke? Why not say beer or something that would be illegal to do while driving.

I had suspicions that my wife might be cheating. I work almost 50 miles away. So, one day I went home around lunch and parked down the street and walked to my house to see if I could catch her. Wouldn't you know it, there was another strange car in my driveway. As I got to the corner of property I snuck up and hid behind my boat. I could see it looked like she was making out with someone in my living room and to make sure they didn't see squatted down behind my boat transom. Looked like they were taking each other's clothes off..... OMG ! That's when my heart sank and I realized all my suspicions were true, there was gear oil directly under the prop on the concrete. That's why I've been losing power on those really long runs. and having trouble getting reverse. Time for all new seals let's hope she don't need a new lower unit.

My Dad is 80. He still has a landline, but last summer he told us kids to use his cell as the default now. I think he's getting rid of it this year.

My Mom is 78, and broke. She uses the landline because it's cheaper. My brother and I talked at Christmas about just putting her on one of our plans instead. Unlimited talk and text plus shared data for like 20 bux more a month. She pays 25ish for very limited minutes.

He shouldn't have rear-ended her. Then again, he has no requirement to wear pants and sit normally in his living room.

2 twin sisters are given identical VW bugs for graduating from high school. They each drive to the mall the next day to show their friends their new car. One of them starts crying and yells to her sister, "OH my God, my engine has been stolen! ". To witch, her sister replies, "Don't worry, there's a spare in the trunk. ".

We have a landline so my wife can call her cell to find it and so we can get our share of spam calls.
