* MeaningfulName: The sickly little man at the blood bank is Casper J. Fragile.
* NoSympathy: John is dismissive of Marsha for not getting one of the household chores done (despite her getting everything else done before he got home). After hearing all Marsha went through today, John remains quite unsympathetic and thinks she's overreacting.

Added DiffLines:
* SiblingRivalry: John and Marsha's kids spend their one scene arguing with each other over every little thing.
* SugaryMalice: When describing the parts of her day that involved John in some way, Marsha's words themselves wouldn't be considered rude, but her voice always conveys frustration with him. She comments on the "thoughtful" anniversary present (a vacuum overloaded with attachments that doesn't even work properly) and tells "lover boy" she deposited his checks at the bank.

"Wild Wife" is a 1954 ''WesternAnimation/MerrieMelodies'' one-shot cartoon directed by Creator/RobertMcKimson. Featuring none of the staple characters, it is instead a rather {{darker|and edgier}} (and, in hindsight, somewhat progressive) take on the stereotypical human television couple of the era.

Marsha, a housewife, is exhausted and slumping in an armchair when her pipe-smoking husband John comes home. The ''very first thing'' he asks is if she did any of the chores. She replies that mowing the lawn was the only chore that didn’t get done. After John makes a sexist remark about how women (at least, at the time this cartoon was made) have all the time in the world and can never get anything done, Marsha recounts her day to show what she normally goes through:

Despite all of Marsha’s accounts of her day, John remains unimpressed — until she answers that she did indeed get him something. It turns out to be a wooden rolling pin, which she uses to knock him out for his putting her through all that trouble and then showing zero appreciation for it afterwards.
