Boyfriends And Husbands Who Took Their Jokes To The Next Level
There's nothing like a little humor to keep a relationship alive. Without laughter, you would just be in a boring relationship and that's no fun, which is where your husband or boyfriend can come in handy.
Even if they're not a dad yet, there's always that next-level humor lying dormant in them. While some men are able to suppress it, these husbands and boyfriends had to embrace their funny bone and their partners just had to deal with it.
That's What She Gets For Forgetting
![makeshift car seat makeshift car seat with trucker hitch](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/makeshift-car-seat-74425.jpg)
His wife forgot to leave the carseat for him to take their son to the babysitters so dad decided to send his wife a photo of his (pretend) makeshift car seat and then proceeded to turn his phone off for the next four hours. Genius.
Seems Like The Perfect Day
![burrito boys girlfriend wrapped up like a burrito](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/burrito-boys-95496.jpg)
Classes were canceled due to a polar vortex so the logical thing for this boyfriend to do was wrap his girlfriend up like a burrito and hand feed her mozzarella sticks. Basically the ideal relationship.
It's Like He Wants Her To Throw The Keys Back At Him
![girlfriend keys girlfriend keys boyfriend joke](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/girlfriend-keys-23617.jpg)
This boyfriend thought it would be funny to give his girlfriend a set of keys to his apartment while also making a joke about struggling to remember the names of all of his other girlfriends. Interesting move on his part.
This Husband Just Wanted To Spice Up Their Life
![renaming the spices renaming the spices in the cupboard](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/uvdx1dh8mj021-76414.jpg?b=0&c=0&width=960&height=720&top=0&left=0&zoom=1)
Never buy your husband a label maker unless you want him to label everything in your house from the cat to the toothbrushes to renaming the spices in the cupboard.
At Least He Has His Humor To Keep Him Entertained
![target homeless target homeless man](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/target-homeless-24049.jpg)
Every husband knows the pain of agreeing to run errands with their wife on a Saturday morning under the promise that they'd only be gone for an hour, then realizing that was, in fact, a lie.
Dad Humor Delivers As Usual

The Math Problem Will Keep Her Brain Spry

What do you do when you start to light the candles and realize you don't have as many as they need? Change strategies and challenge their basic math skills before they can blow out the candles.
Out With The Old, In With The New

It's A... Baby!

A Sneaky Move

Aly's husband Ian insisted that their new puppy Nala (whom he had been responsible for naming) needed her own Christmas stocking to hang on the mantel. His motives behind the sweet gesture became much more clear once the stockings were hung up...
Making Sure She Comes Back With All Her Limbs Intact

His wife was having a minor surgery, but after watching one too many medical dramas on Netflix, he was worried the doctors might make a mistake, so he added a couple of labels just in case.
"I made An Executive Decision."

His wife wasn't sure how to spend the nearly 2000 tickets they had won at Dave and Busters. However, he knew exactly how to spend them, and finished off this impressive display of D&B dominance with a photoshoot.
Oh, How Thoughtful
![tinder blanket tinder blanket conversation](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/tinder-blanket-45303.jpg)
Sometimes, couples who meet on Tinder or other dating apps feel embarrassed and tell their family they met in other more traditional ways. Instead, this man wanted to celebrate how they met. For his first anniversary with his girlfriend, he printed their first Tinder conversation onto a blanket keepsake. Incredible.
The Worst Part About Prison Was The Dementors
![prison mike photo prison mike photo comprised of couple photos](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2sd8vxnev4521-91018.jpg)
This gift from her boyfriend would've been great if it was just a photo of Prison Michael Scott, but to take it one step further, it turns out the photo is comprised of photos of her and her bf. Why settle for a good present when you could make it a fantastic present? Sentimental with a touch of humor.
Message Received
![husband making half the bed husband making half the bed while being petty](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/husband-making-half-the-bed-86174.jpg)
In order to properly convey how he was feeling to his wife, this husband decided to take his pettiness to the next level and only make his side of the bed. It's a power move for sure.
The Junk Graveyard

For the past two years, every time this man's wife tells him he can't throw out something from the garage, he hangs it in their front room as "art" because that's where special, non-junk goes, right?
How Did He Get It In There Though?
![volkswagen inside volkswagen in the living room](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/vu4wt73iwjb31-71324.jpg)

His wife asked for jewellery and he really came through with this 18 carrot necklace. It probably wasn't the present she was expecting, but at least he's making sure she's getting all her vegetables!
Sibling Love
![mcdonalds siblings prank mcdonalds siblings prank with boyfriend](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/mcdonalds-siblings-prank-28068.jpg)
No one loves to embarrass you more than your boyfriend or husband, especially if it's in public. Hopefully, the girl at McDonald's had a good enough sense of humor to understand what was happening.
He Won't Be Asked To Do That Again
![cat dino cat dino grooming](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/cat-dino-67300.jpg)
If you've ever considered asking your boyfriend to take your cat or dog to the groomers, you better be sure he won't do what this woman's boyfriend did and bring back a cat that's been shaved into a dinosaur.
This Means War

If you're ever looking to pick a fight with your wife like this man was, this is definitely the way to do it. You know he probably also got in trouble for using a children's plate for no reason too.
He's Doing His Best
![y tho y tho support at a marathon](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/y-tho-71625.jpg)
Look, your boyfriend wants to support you and share your hobbies & interests with you, but he also wants you and everyone else to know that he wishes your hobbies didn't include getting up before the sun.
Cherished Memories

When his wife asked him to take a picture of their faces after they saw their newborn daughter for the first time, this wasn't exactly what she meant. But at least one of them is enjoying the experience.
You'll Have To Be More Specific Next Time

One husband's wife was upset that he hadn't posted an update to his Facebook page after his daughter was born and she wanted him to share some pictures, so he figured he'd get a little creative.
The Best Date Night You Could Ask For

Every month this husband and his wife have a date night and she always manages to guess where they're going even if it's a surprise so this time he was determined to keep it a surprise. That's how she ended up in formal wear at their kitchen table eating Taco Bell.
He's In The Dog House Now
![golden retriever golden retriever but its not a dog](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/golden-retriever-47474.jpg)
When his girlfriend asked for a "golden retriever" for her birthday, she was expecting some sort of furry creature, but her boyfriend decided to take the punnier (and riskier) route and went with a different kind of retriever instead.
Bob Ross For Inspiration Of Course
![paint nite bob ross paint nite](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/amaygfoxilj21-45589.jpg)
Who in their right mind would actually be upset about their husband setting up a Bob Ross-esque paint nite for them and their friends? She asked him to set up "a little cork and canvas" for her and her friends, and he delivered.
But Honey, It's Art!
![wrapping art garbage turned into art](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/D2mx07lXQAMl95r-99233.jpeg)
If you're married to a funnyman — or a man who thinks he's funny — then you have to deal with things like this woman who asked her husband to stop leaving his wrappers on the counter, and instead of listening to her he wrote out a MOMA-worthy description for it.
Cat Fights All Day Every Day
![wrestlemania wrestle mania for the cats](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/wrestlemania-78165.jpg)
Is he wrong though? If you can't have a guard dog to protect the house while you're away at work, you might as well teach your cats to be professional wrestlers.
What More Could You Want?
![ugly photo blanket present that's an ugly blanket](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/xhts28wmdug21-90472.jpg)
His wife hates one particular picture of him so "naturally, I made it into a blanket for her as a Valentine's gift." Really it's her own fault for admitting how much she hated the picture.
And They Say Romance Is Dead
![bird seed in heart bird seed in shape of heart for wife](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/wy4UavVkzZFqPi4bObyFf8xz-tWNLM5QehuvcGCsao-77812.jpg?width=800&height=533)
Recently, this husband has started going outside every morning to feed the birds, but there's a strategy to it. He intentionally places the bird seed in a heart shape so his wife can see it when she looks out the window.
He Couldn't Afford The Real Thing
![laser pen on razor laser pen strapped to razor](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/uBYdNQD_d-52717.jpg?b=0&c=0&width=800&height=533&top=47&left=0&zoom=1.25)
His wife asked for laser hair removal for Christmas and that's what she got, just not the version she was expecting. It's hair removal on a budget, using everything they already own in the house.
Every Man On The Block Can Relate
![pumpkin carving carving pumpkin for wife](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pyhoptyq8gv11-62921.jpg?b=0&c=0&width=800&height=533&top=324&left=0&zoom=1.25)

When Mom's Away

When mom is on a business trip, dad is left in charge of the children, which he always claims goes really well. This note that he forgot to take down before mom came home says that something may have happened.
The Dog Did It
![dog ate the cake husband blamed missing dessert on dog](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/1583762799113686500-24552.jpg?width=800&height=533)
If you're going to try to blame a dog for eating the cake that was left in the fridge, at least blame a real dog, not your child's stuffed animal.
That Looks Like An Intense Race
![5k action shots husband photoshopped marathon photos](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/kuayns8r9t411-96190.jpg?width=800&height=800)
His wife was running in her first 5K and he wanted to make sure that he documented the race, but didn't want to settle for any old standard photo of her running down the street.
Is This Grounds For Divorce?
![bitten ice cream cone biting ice cream cone bottom](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/dGMeAb1-83024.jpg?width=800&height=1223)
When her husband asked for a bite of her ice cream cone she decided to be nice and say yes. To her horror, her husband bit off the bottom of the cone and now she's realized she's married to a monster.
Mission Impossible For His Short Wife
![remote in chandelier remote on top of chandelier](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Screenshot-4436-76925.jpg?width=800&height=800)
After one too many sarcastic comments throughout the day, this husband took matters into his own hands. She'll think twice about criticizing him if she ever wants to watch TV again.
Her Husband Packed Her Lunch
![moldy cheese moldy cheese for lunch](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/husbands-and-wives-bringing-out-the-pranks-xx-photos-16-25815.jpg?width=800&height=999)
Try to focus on the positive: you asked your husband to pack your lunch and he actually did it! Don't focus on the fact that he packed you a moldy block of cheese.
Focus On The Dinosaurs, Not The Numbers
![3+7+1 for 38 bday birthday candles that involve math](https://www.thisiswhyimsingle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/d7d6a7554ab9a478e31a784ee1-53500.jpg?width=800&height=533)
His wife was turning 38 but her husband discovered they didn't actually have an "8" candle so he had to get creative, resulting in the candles wishing her a happy 371st birthday instead.
