-You have to wait three days to call a woman.
...
-Barney, the Three Days Rule is insane. I mean, who even came up with that?
-Jesus.
-Barney, don't do this. Not with Jesus.
-Seriously. Jesus started the whole wait-three-days thing.
-He waited three days to come back to life. It was perfect. If he have only waited one day, a lot of people wouldn't have even heard that he died. They'd be all, "Hey, Jesus, what up?" And Jesus would probably be, like: "What up? I died yesterday." And then they'd be all: "Uh, you look pretty alive to me, dude." And then Jesus would have to explain how he was resurrected and how it was a miracle. And then, the dude would be, like, "Uh, okay, whatever you say, bro." Wow, ancient dialogue sounds so stilted now. And he's not going to come back on a Saturday. Everybody's busy doing chores. Working the loom, trimming their beards. No. He waits the exact right number of days... Three.
-Okay, I promise-- I'll wait three days. Just please stop talking.
-Plus, it's Sunday, so everyone's in church already. They're all in there: "Oh, no, Jesus is dead." Then, bam! He bursts through the back door, runs up the aisle. Everyone's totally psyched. And, FYI, that's when he invented the high-five. Hmm. Three days, Ted. We wait three days to call a woman because that's how long Jesus wants us to wait.
