Obviousman: Sigh, don't boneheads ever sleep? So what numbskulduggery is afoot here? Man 1: It's our friend-o-man... he brought flowers for his wife.. without any occasion for them! You're his last hope! Obviousman: gasp! Man 2: What's the big deal? Obviousman: Think beyond the moment of surprise, you nocturnal knucklehead... what'll your wife do next? Man 2: Um... let's see... first, she'll be happy, then comment on how I never buy her flowers. Then -gasp- her gratitude will trun into suspicion that I'm feeling guilty about something, and the more I deny it, the more I'll sound guilty! Then... Oh, my.... I'll have to start buying her flowers all the time just to prove nothing is going on, turning my gesture of love into a daily obligation! Man 2: Bless you, obviousman! You saved my marriage! Obviousman: Yeah, yeah.. now go home, sleep it off, and always remember that gift-giving occasions were created for your protection. Don't abuse them! A beacon of distress pierces the night sky in search of our superhero of sanity - Obviousman!
