Just a funny little story

My wife came home recently with a new haircut. I have never seen her with a haircut I didn’t like.

But this one was rough. I said something nice and then left. Later on we were just chatting. She kept saying that her stylist didn’t cut it the way she wanted it. She showed me pictures and he *totally* missed the mark. I said, “Yeah, he really didn’t achieve that.” “I know!” she said.

I walked into the kitchen and started strategizing. If she actually liked it I didn’t want to say anything. So I was going to wait it out.

I turned around and looked at her.

“What would it look like if you didn’t straighten it,” I asked innocently?

She fixed me with her all-knowing stare.

“What is it,” she said.

“I love you,” I said.

“What,” she repeated.

“I’m sorry. I would never ever say something. But this haircut makes you look like you own a small dog.”

“What?” she said.

“You look like you spend a lot of time on Nextdoor.”

“Are you trying to say I look like a Karen?” she said, cracking up.

“You just… you just look like you drive a Chevy Suburban or something.”

“Nooooooooooooooooo,” she cried out. Then we both started laughing. Turns out she basically thought the same and is getting it styled tomorrow lol.
