First off, my wife and I do very stupid, silly pranks on each other. It’s a love language. She loves to be pranked. It’s never anything humiliating, denigrating, demeaning, etc. If you’re familiar with the show New Girl, her pranks to me are on par with Winston’s “too small” pranks. They’re just silly. Mine to her are a little bigger just because she loves it so much. Like once I found out how to change the background on her car screen and took a picture of my butt and put it on there. She laughed about it for hours. I changed it back.

About 2 years ago when she was having a giggle fit, she told me her idea for a “big” prank. To switch someone’s deodorant stick with cream cheese. She laughed so hard about it that she cried. She said she could never do that but how funny would it be?

Well, I saved it in my back pocket. It had to line up with her needing a new stick of deodorant and me being able to do it without her noticing. So yeah, two years later, I finally got things going.

Unfortunately… her sister came to stay with us. They use the same deodorant, and her sister mistook the cream cheese one for hers. She put it on. I cannot understand how she didn’t immediately notice it, because I tested it on myself and it wasn’t a pretty sight (I do have hairier pits than she does). But apparently it took her at least until she went to the store, in a sleeveless top, and yeah…

She rained down on me like hellfire, yelling about how I humiliated her and how disgusting it was and she’d have to take “like 5 showers to get the stench of hot cream cheese off.” She told me that I was childish and stupid. My wife was, at the time, out of the house, so she thought I did it on purpose. I tried to explain it to her and apologized a million times and she just kept laying it on me.

When I told my wife, she didn’t remember that she’d been the one to come up with it. She laughed but said that I should’ve known better and I should have remembered her sister would be there.

AITA?
