A "dead wife montage" is a visual media device used to introduce a deceased or missing character, most frequently a dead wife. The character is heavily romanticised in the flashback-style clip compilation ("montage") of happy memories the deceased shared with the affected character in the present story. Through the flashback, the deceased person is often portrayed as an angelic, flawless and almost superhuman person who heavily influenced the affected character's life, who still struggles to deal with their passing/disappearance. The montage is often but not always accompanied by sad/sentimental music.
This stlye of flashback has drawn attention on social media in recent years, with many online comedians producing sketches which aim at making fun of the trope.

An inhuman specimen of unimaginable heft. Can be a substitute for the proverbial "your mom is...." jib, as your mom has since lost the title of the fattest known entity in the known universe to Randy's wife.
Randy's wife is so fat she has her own gravitational pull

When a husband doesn't want to do something but his wife wants him to do it, she convinces him to do it.
Ryan didn't want to go to a family get together, but his wife used her wife sorcery on him to convince him to go.
