That's a dangerous game to play lol

Assuming she has a good sense of humor, this should be an effective gambit for small mads. There is no cleverness gambit for big mads, trust me.

I'm imagining Mads Mikkelsen at different sizes and scales. Once he becomes as big as godzilla, there's no hope.

Linda would have played it. And won.

Hey honey, let's leave Linda to do the dishes while we go to bed.

Dammit Linda, where'd you put my keys this time?

A man who likes to play with fire.

It is a good tool to introduce levity into an otherwise normal or even embarrassing situation.

“Didn’t you say you were going to do dishes?”

“…uh, that was Linda. But since she spaced on it I’ll take care of them now.”

I can share some of my favourite stand up:

Stewart Lee's imaginary wife.

If his name is Bob and his other wife's a homeopath named Susan, it's okay - Linda likes her.

I had a dream that my partner cheated on me with someone called Rachel, so now whenever he is texting or if he gets a random phone call I go "is that Rachel" or if I'm going away for a few nights I tell him to say hi to Rachel for me. If I'm texting or calling, he goes "is that Ray", who we've decided is Rachel's male counterpart. (It's all jokes, obv)

I'm missing the context of what sort of dream this was and what emotions/fears etc. it triggered/processed.

I hope they talked this through and they're both 100% sure joking like this won't be hurtful or damaging.
