Short Funny Story about a Phone

The following short story happened a long time ago. At that time regular phones were already available, but the mobile phones and the Internet were not invented yet. People had to call each other from work or from a phone booth. Epsos.de hopes that you will laugh at least once, after you read this funny story.

Sleepy Wife

A sleepy wife wakes up. She has to go to work two hours earlier than her husband. She turns on the coffee machine, before she goes to the bathroom. She brushes her teeth and dresses for work. She eats her breakfast very fast, because she is already late. She turns off the coffee machine and goes to work. Her husband is sleeping.

At the Train

Twenty minutes later the forgetful wife sits in the train. She has to travel one hour before she arrives at work. A crazy itch of doubt starts to scratch her thoughts. The wife thinks that she forgot to turn off the coffee machine. She is afraid that it will burn, if the husband does not switch it off.

Three happy women are sitting next to the wife. She knows them a little. She also knows that they will exit the train on the next station and go to work. The stressed wife starts to talk to the women. She tells them about the coffee machine. The women agree with the wife. They do also think that the coffee machine will burn.

The wife asks the women, if they could call her husband when they exit the train. The women agree, but say that they will have to use the phone at work. Each woman works in a different place. The wife is very happy and gives each woman the phone number of her home and the name of her husband.

The Perplexed Husband

15 minutes later. The husband awakes at home. He turns on the coffee machine and goes to the bathroom, -- just like his wife does every morning --. He brushes his teeth, until the telephone rings. He answers the phone. A shy female voice talks to him. The woman says: "Your wife said that you should turn off the coffee machine !" The husband says: "Yes, thank you !". He turns off the coffee machine, because he thinks that it was broken by his wife.

The wondering husband goes to the bathroom. He brushes his teeth. He shaves himself. He goes back to the kitchen and looks at the coffee machine. Nothing appears to be wrong with it. He turns on the coffee machine machine, because he wants coffee. The smiling husband makes breakfast for himself, as the telephone rings again. He answers the phone. A strong female voice talks to him. The woman says: "Your wife said that you should turn off the coffee machine !". The surprised husband says: "Yes, who are you ?". The woman says that she knows his wife from the train. Then she cancels the call.

The husband begins to feel very weird. He turns off the coffee machine. He eats his breakfast without coffee. He thinks that someone is joking about him. Once again he turns on the coffee machine. As he goes back to the table, the telephone rings again. He answers the phone. An old, urging, female voice talks to him. The old woman says: "Your wife said that you should turn off the coffee machine immediately !". The husband replies: "Who are you ?". The old woman says: "I know your wife from the train. She said that you should turn off the coffee machine immediately !" The angry husband says: "Yes !". Then he cancels the call.

The husband thinks that someone is watching him. He closes the drapes in the kitchen. He waits for one minute and turns on the coffee machine. The telephone rings again. The husband is shocked. He slowly answers the phone. The voice of his wife talks to him. The wife asks: "Did you turn off the coffee machine ?"

Epilog

This short story is a great example for the female sense of humor. Women like funny situations with real people. The real story happened a long time ago. The husband and his wife told this funny story very many times. Epsos.de thinks that the original dialog was slightly different, but the wife and her husband insisted that it happened, just as funny as they told. Epsos.de hopes that you liked it. Tell this story to your friends and co-workers. Clever women seem to find this short story more funny than the men, because women laughed more, when the story was told to them.
