30-Year Refund

"I don't think those are returnable," Mark cautioned as his wife finished off an Arizona Iced Tea and went to chuck the can in with the pop bottles.

"Yes they are," Karen retorted without looking at him. "It's a new program. It runs concurrent with the regular bottle bill."

"Seriously? That's what you're going with? A mythical addendum to the bottle bill? You've really circled the bullshit wagons with that one, Karen."

"Well, look who mainlined some more highly-concentrated liquid cruelty this afternoon. You really don't need it Mark; your heart pumps plenty of it naturally."

"But it's no match for the little curlicues of stupidity seeping out of your brain. Oh sure, you might think she just came from the hairdresser..."

"I have to believe you have an ulterior life in which you aren't a complete and utter jackass."

"Yes, and in that world I haven't unlearned all reason and logic in order to follow your many derailed trains of thought."

"You? The man who had the wisdom to drain his 401k to invest in 'ponzi.com?' You, of all people, have had only the most casual of flirtations with reason."

"Clearly. How else would I end up married to you and your incessant quest for the world championship of ball-breaking? Don't walk away from me! Where are you going?"

"To find our marriage license. I'm just praying to God that it has a thirty-year cancellation and refund policy hidden in the fine print."
