This retired bloke sits around the house all day doing nothing except exasperate the wife (look at the video only after reading the story)

She finally says: “You could actually do something useful, like vacuuming the house once a week !”

The useless husband gives it some thought and then replies “Why don’t you get the vac out for me and I’ll give it a go”.

Half an hour later, the husband comes back into the kitchen.

The wife says “I didn't hear the sound of the vac… I thought you said you were going to use it?”

The man simply says “The stupid thing is broken. It won't start. You’ll have to get it serviced or buy a new one!"

“Really!” she says....”Show me, because it was working fine the last time I used it.”
