TO NEIGHBOR:

Hi, Fred, this is Richard, next door.  I’ve got a confession to make.
I’ve been riddled with guilt for a few months and have been trying to
get up the courage to tell you face-to-face.  At least I’m telling you
in this text and I can’t live with myself a minute longer without you
knowing about this.  The truth is that when you’re not around I’ve
been sharing your wife, day and night.  In fact, probably much more than
you.  I haven’t been getting it at home recently and I know that
that’s no excuse.  The temptation was just too great.  I can’t live
with the guilt and hope you’ll accept my sincere apology and forgive
me.  Please suggest a fee for usage and I’ll pay you.
Regards, Richard

NEIGHBOR’S RESPONSE:

Fred, feeling so angered and betrayed, grabbed his gun and shot Richard,
killing him.  He went back home and poured himself a stiff drink and sat
down on the sofa.  Fred then looked at his phone and discovered a second
text message from Richard.

SECOND TEXT MESSAGE:

Hi, Fred.  Richard here again.  Sorry about the typo on my last text.  I
expect you figured it out and noticed that the damned Auto-Correct had
changed “wi-fi” to “wife.”  Technology, huh?  It’ll be the 

 

 death of us all.
Regards, Richard
