Her: “Are you still 88?”
Him: “What?”
Her: “ARE YOU STILL 88?”
Him: “I already ate.”

Him: “Why does a foot doctor want to know if I ate lunch?”
Her: “Oh, go back to sleep.”

Have you ever ran out of gas while going 60 mph, and then coasted for 3 minutes, with just enough momentum to roll gently to a stop at a gas pump? I just did exactly that – and it was awesome. My family is not properly impressed. The wife keeps mentioning something about not running out of gas in the first place. Where are the style points in that?
