Relying on a husband to always do the right thing can be a risky proposition. You give them a small task to complete like naming the new puppy and they decide to call the dog Ozzy Pawsbourne. Other times, they surprise us by drawing a mustache on the baby or putting common household items in uncommon places. Itโs amazing how creative some guys can be.
However, even when they mess things up, itโs hard to get too mad at them. Most of the time, it can actually be pretty darn funny what some husbands get up to when the wives arenโt watching. The list includes 75 of the funniest husbands who canโt be trusted that we could find. Although, really itโs all in good fun. At the end of the day, we still love them.

Even trusting the husband to do something simple like keeping an eye on the cat can be a little risky. You might just walk in on him holding the cat up to the ceiling and singing, โspider cat, spider cat does whatever a spider cat doesโ.
