Here's why:
Last night I was watching TV, flipping between Taken and Mythbusters, but mostly watching Taken. SIDE NOTE: I also watched Taken 2 nights ago but missed the middle section - yeah, they must be showing it every night.

My lovely wife was sitting next to me with HER laptop, surfing the web. When a commercial came on during Taken, I picked the remote up and switched over to Mythbusters. Immediately my wife grabbed (snatched) the remote out of my hand, turned the TV back to the Taken channel and threw the remote to the other side of the room. Then went back to surfing the Web, as if this was perfectly normal behavior and nothing had happened at all.

If my wife didn't frivolously spend every penny I make, I would definitely buy a whore from time to time.
