Married life has its highs and lows and a whole lot of mundane moments in between.

But whether we're talking about the ordinary or the extraordinary, some spouses find a way to treat marriage with a healthy dose of humor.

From fighting about who gets to use the new vacuum cleaner first to setting parental controls on Netflix after your partner watches a show without you, we at Bored Panda put together a new list of the funniest marriage tweets we found, and they're just as hilariously relatable as the ones in our older pieces here and here.

To learn about what it takes to maintain a healthy relationship with your spouse, we contacted marriage & relationship coach Suzanne Venker. "The pillars of married life is a shared belief in marriage as an institution, being on the same team (particularly with respect to money, religion, parenting, and in-laws) and a genuine like (not just love) of the other person," the author of the forthcoming book, How to Get Hitched (and Stay Hitched): A 12-Step Program for Marriage-Minded Women, told Bored Panda.

If people have that, Venker believes they can withstand the biggest dangers to their married life: being competitive (or engaging in a power struggle, rather than being complementary by accepting how different men and women really are with their needs, thought processes, and behaviors) as well as the inability to accept the other person (or to accept that some things won't change), and the lack of respect on the part of the wife and lack of romance and tenderness on the part of the husband.

The share of U.S. adults who are currently married has declined from 58% in 1995 to 53% in 2019. Over the same period, however, the share of adults who are living with an unmarried partner has risen from 3% to 7%.

But according to the Pew Research Center, married adults have higher levels of relationship satisfaction and trust than those living with an unmarried partner (about six-in-ten married adults (58%) say things are going very well in their marriage; 41% of cohabiters say the same about their relationship with their partner).

It’s not a good idea to make your spouse feel like there’s an analogous relationship between having sex with you, and doing chores.

Wait for it. Eventually, someone will come along and tell us all how, we too, can work from home and make trillions of dollars online.

Plus, married adults are also more likely than cohabiters to say they feel closer to their spouse or partner than to any other adult (about eight-in-ten married adults (78%) say they feel closer to their spouse than to any other adult in their life; a narrower majority of cohabiters (55%) say the same about their partner).

Suzanne Venker said that humor is also very important to a successful marriage. "Life is long and difficult. There are so many stressors in a marriage and without humor and playfulness, it will be a much harder road. And not nearly as fun," she explained. So I guess the people we see on the list are off to a great start!

Thing is we’re all picky eaters, we just notice it more in others than we do ourselves. We all have certain preferences. Not just ourselves, but all of the animal kingdom; my cat will only eat one specific brand of dry food, give her anything else and it will go uneaten.

Nothing worse than having extra pieces of junk added to your junk. Suddenly you've lost control of your junk and you have no idea what's in there anymore.

My wife bought new net curtains, they’re nice but the drop is too long in the living room and dining room. You know what? I used to take copious amounts of drugs, sleep behind a supermarket and wake up just in time to go to work, go travelling abroad sometimes without any luggage whatever, oh the list of poor and naive choices goes on and on. But at least I now have nice new net curtains.

An old Italian woman once told me the secret to a successful marriage is finding someone you can put up with who is willing to put up with you.

Any man that believes women are "the weaker sex" has never tried to reclaim his half of the blankets on a cold winter's night.

But you appreciate it when she produces something you need at the the time from said purse.

I dare you to say the same to her. Experience: been with wife for 26 years. Trust me on this.

I used to set the alarm by snoozes, at least five presses before getting up.
