A husband’s growing doubts about his wife’s faithfulness led him to conduct an impromptu home investigation. After arriving home early and searching every room, he spotted a man waiting in a Volkswagen outside their house. In a panic, he did what any reasonable suspicious spouse would do – he hid in the refrigerator.
The mental image of a grown man curled up next to the butter compartment while spying through the fridge door cracks is comedy gold. This short tale perfectly captures how jealousy can make people act in ways that seem completely irrational in hindsight.
While the story leaves us wondering what happened next (did the wife find him in the fridge? Was the Volkswagen guy just waiting for someone else?), it certainly delivers a memorable lesson about the dangers of letting suspicion override common sense.
