An elderly couple walked into a Kentucky Fried Chicken and slid into a booth like they’d been doing it for 50 years.
The old man waddled up to the counter and ordered one meal. When he came back, he set the tray down like it was Sunday dinner at grandma’s.
He unwrapped the chicken sandwich, split it in half with surgeon precision, and set one half in front of his wife. Then he started counting Chips like it was a church offering plate — one for her, one for him — until they were perfectly even. Finally, he took the Pepsi, stuck two straws in it, and slid it to the middle of the table.
The wife picked up her half and started eating like she hadn’t had fried chicken in decades. The husband? He just sat there, taking the occasional sip of soda and staring at her like she was starring in her own cooking show.
People around them started whispering, some even shaking their heads — thinking times must be tough if an old couple can only afford to split one meal.
Finally, a young man got up and walked over.
“Sir, ma’am… please, let me buy you another meal so you don’t have to share.”
The wife smiled sweetly and said,
“Oh, thank you, son, but we share everything.”
The young guy nodded, but he couldn’t stop glancing back. It was bothering him — the old man still hadn’t taken a single bite.
So he came back again.
“Sir, I really don’t mind… but if you share everything, why aren’t you eating?”
The old man leaned back, grinned, and said:
“I’m waiting on the teeth.”

I didn't see that coming. Good one.
Sharing is caring!
Ha ha ha - that is gag worthy.
I've heard this joke reveal times, but can never remember the punch line in advance. Thanks.
I wonder if they transfer them with a French kiss?
And they care a LOT.
It is a good gag... OH, THAT kind of gag.
It is an oldie but a goodie.
Eeeuuww, someone please buy that man his own set of teeth.
