Life insurance: Black Market style

The other day, my new health card came in the mail. Along with it came a new organ donor card. I filled it out and left it on the counter for The Guy to sign as a witness. He came home and I told him there it was there to sign.

The Guy: What is it?
Me: My new organ donor card. You know that when I die, I want my organs donated.
The Guy: No way.
Me: What?
The Guy: I was planning on harvesting them myself and selling to the highest bidder.

  1. See, this is why we seek a life partner. So the black market sale of our organs can benefit someone we formerly knew and loved. It's sweet in a Hannibal Lecter kind of way, and something I can completely see Dave saying to me. It's how we know they love us ... or at least will keep us around until they're really hard up for cash.
