I thought this was going to be one of those for sale ads where someone lists a very average old C172 for $400K.

I traded my race cars for a wife.
Someone got a good deal....

Had to sell the plane when we bought the current house. Haven't owned since, and now it's been many years since I've piloted due to layoffs and what not.
Real life, real choices.
Still like looking up the sky when I hear an engine overhead.

Speaking of insane 172 prices... https://www.controller.com/listings/aircraft/for-sale/33928267/1964-cessna-172-180-conversion
Good news is that engine 1 hot section time is only 15 and it features a custom fabricating panel with Red Cross stitching!

One would think that the paint alone would be enough to keep it from selling.

I've lost count of how many times I've seen this meme. Even funnier, Smudge the Cat has 1.3M followers on Instagram.

Ejection Handle Pulled
I believe this one is in the joke section:
wife: when are you going to sell the plane? How many times do I have to tell you that we can't afford it?
husband: you're beginning to sound like my ex-wife.
wife (now somewhat pizzed): wait, I thought you told me that you hadn't been married before!
husband: I haven't been.

That's a spin on the "You remind me of my second wife/husband." "How many times have you been married?" "One".
