It’s the last day of a couple’s vacation. Alas, they immediately start to argue over which final tourist attraction to see before making their plane.

The wife says, “I want to see the Botanical Gardens.” 

“Boring!” the husband says. “I want to see the Museum of Celebrity Artifacts.”

“Oh,” that’s just trash,” says the wife. “It’s perfect weather for the gardens. And I want to see the buttercups while they’re in full bloom.” 

“Again, boring!” says the husband. “They’ve got all these curios at the celebrity museum, like Hank Williams’s radio and Marlon Brando’s shoes. And they just got in a cup of Reese Witherspoon’s urine from when she was arrested for drunk driving.” 

The wife huffs, “Are you telling me you’d rather look at Reese Witherspoon’s urine than a flower garden?”

“That’s right,” says the husband. “Reese’s Pee, Not Buttercups!”
