Ian took one look at today’s “Sherman Lagoon” and mumbled that he totally understood what it was saying. In the strip, the wife says, “Sherman, I don’t feel like eating in tonight. Let’s go to a restaurant.”

Sherman: “Okay.”

Wife: “Let’s have sushi.”

Sherman: “Works for me.”

Wife: “Not just any sushi. Unagi, sake, and California roll.”

Sherman: “Sounds good.”

Wife: “I made a reservation for 7:30.”

Sherman: “Right.”

Friend (sitting next to Sherman during whole conversation): “Does she make all the decisions?”

Sherman: “Just the little ones. On a day-to-day basis she calls the shots, all the while knowing that the grand master plan is mine.”

Wife (from other room, holding tie out): “Here, try this tie on.”

Friend (while Sherman ties tie): “So, what happens next in the master plan?”

Sherman: “Got me. I’ve got it written down somewhere.”

The end.

And that, my friends, is what made Ian laugh—it’s only funny because it may or may not be true.

Thought: you can’t expect other people to be any more perfect than you are yourself.
