I liked this one. Witty punchline.

"Pick two" is usually understood as "pick two options from these three", but he's saying he meant "pick option number two (great lover)".

This was Crunchy Pete's introduction to this saying

do prospective wives know which of the two they are aiming for, or is it pot-luck?
...then she said "I don't see why" and burst into flames...

I don't think pot luck is the phrase you are looking for. That would mean there was multiple wives each bringing their own characteristics. Or maybe you do...

Everyone future wife goes in with a variety of characteristic traits, and walks out as one of the three possible identities.

Well, I was assuming every wife had exactly two of those traits, and it didn't matter what order they were in, so 3 possibilites.

NO, STOP MAKING ME ONE OF THEM! CURSE YOU SPRINKLES.

Not every wife has two of the traits, as we've seen it is possible for them to only have two.

Do we also count them if they have none of the traits? That would would give us a whopping seven different personality combinations for a wife to have.

It would be 7, but not because I forgot about having none of the traits, I simply forgot to do all three of the versions of one trait.
