    My first attempt didn't go do well.

    Me: "You know, Depp is wearing a kilt in Alice in Wonderland."
    Wife: "Yeah, but he's Johnny Depp."



    Sooner or later, I'll wear her down. Or I'll have a sure-fire way to ensure I won't have "the ol' ball and chain" tagging along to the pub.

    Did you really just refer to your wife as "The ol' ball and chain?" Tsk tsk. Since she isn't here to defend herself, I'll be offended on her behalf.

    Tongue was planted firmly in cheek. Text is often not quite as expressive as face-to-face conversation, and subtleties can be lost.

    I know, I'm just giving you a hard time I was raised to view just about everything as a joke

    My wife's favorite hobby!

    Anyway, I'm going to be totally obnoxious about Depp-in-a-kilt. I really wasn't joking when I said that if I wear a kilt my wife refuses to be seen in public with me. Maybe I'll add "wearing the kilt" as a precondition to going to see the movie!

    That might just work! Good luck, and keep at it

    Is Tim Burton trying to suggest mercury induced insanity and Madonna-esque make-up equates with kilt wear? We need to know.
