Head Freeze For Other Reasons

(My fiancée and I are both computer/math geeks.)

Me: “What kind of ice cream do you want? Cookie dough, almond, vanilla, white chocolate, or mint chocolate chip?”

Fiancée: “Yes!”

Me: “Cookie dough, almond, vanilla, white chocolate, XOR mint chocolate chip?”

Fiancée: “But I don’t want to have to pick just one!”

Me: “Fine, make it five, choose two.”

Fiancée: “Hmm…”

Me: “That’s 10 combinations. It’s like I’ve got twice as many flavors!”

Fiancée: “Normal people don’t have these conversations about ice cream, do they?”
