Some of the others that follow are good too. I really liked the Olaf jokes. I don't remember reading those, but 2009 was a long time ago.

That is one of the jokes that only works when told like that. If you try to include a literal quote (from the wife complaining) it fails because "You don't buy me flowers" and "you don't buy my flowers" are different.fresh_42 said:
