Feels like radicalism--for here and the Trek store--that it says "spouse" and not "wife".

The times...they are a changin'!

My mother used to use a red pen to mark "sale" prices on dresses she bought that would make my dad happy.

Hey, hey, hey! I was going to commend Trek store for their choice of words! The times have *already* changed!

If you are scared to tell your wife anything then you need marriage counseling.

The government will soon outlaw laughter and sarcasm, since its clear the rights of the easily offended are taking precedent in this modern era.

Orwell was on point.

Dear Puritanical pearl clutchers,

It is a joke. It is meant to be funny. You know those whole boomer-esque "take my wife, please!" jokes? It's along those lines. Such self righteousness cloaked in a lack of humor understanding. Lighten up, Francis.
