A Pane In The Glass
We were visiting a friend for the first time since they had moved into a home they bought on the other side of the state a year prior. She is showing us around and eventually comments on the stained glass on the kitchen door.
Wife and I kinda like it, in a kitschy way. She hates it.
Friend: “I want to get rid of it, but it would cost too much to replace.”
Me: “What do you mean it’s going to cost a lot?”
Friend: “I shopped around for a door, and it’s gonna cost at least $1000. I really hate it, but I can live with it.”
My Wife: “No, it won’t.”
And then she just reaches over and peels off the sticker that makes it look like stained glass.
Our friend just stared at us for a minute with her mouth hanging open in surprise.
Friend: “Twelve months…”
She stomps.
Friend: “Twelve months I’ve been complaining about that, and neither of us noticed it was a god d*** sticker?!”
She then shouts clean across the house to her husband.
Friend: “Gerald! It was a f****** sticker!”
