(My boyfriend and I are talking about presents we should get for Christmas. We have been together 3 years.)

Him: “I don’t even need anything this year. I have everything I need.”

Me: “Well, a present isn’t always what you need, but what you want!”

Him: “Well, what do you want?”

(In response I stretch my arms and wiggle my left ring finger to suggest what he knows I really want, an engagement ring!)

Me: “Oh, I don’t know…”

Him: “Well, besides surgery for that strange tic in your finger. What is that finger called again? Oh yeah, the fourth finger!”

(I start laughing uncontrollably.)
