Wisdom and humor in the same post is a rare find.
I try and use the same logic in dealing with "services" from yes dear. It does not seem to work quite as well in your example.

I asked him did he smoke one when he married his amazingly beautiful wife who was an actual Playmate and who actually loves him? He said no. I asked if he smoked one when HP bought his company for a ransom? He said no. I asked if he smoked one when his twins were born? He said no.
I thought I knew the perfect time and told him “After we eat this fine meal and drink more scotch while crossing the street you will be crushed by an out of control city bus. Your wife will be devastated and mourn you for two years tops. But the girls will need a father and a playmate needs a man and she will eventually find one. They’ll date for a while and marry a year later, cause who lets a wealthy playmate get away? And while they are on their honeymoon on your yacht right before he consummates he’s gonna go up to the deck and smoke one of those Cohibas.”
Needless to say we cracked the box at a bbq the next day. Anyway sometimes you have to let “because its Tuesday” be a special enough occasion.
