The Ring
This one comes from Rachel Osier.
A man wants to buy his girlfriend an engagement ring so he can propose. He doesn’t know her ring size, though, so he tries various schemes, like getting a friend of hers to trick her into revealing it (“Let’s find out our ring sizes together!”).
She brilliantly sees through all the schemes, and keeps her ring size to herself, just to frustrate him. She wants to get married, but is more concerned with making his life difficult.
So one night while she’s asleep, the boyfriend quietly takes some measuring tape and puts it around her finger to measure it himself. Unfortunately, the moment he figures it out (“She’s a 7!”), she rolls over and the metal tape cuts her finger right off.
