A woman who prides herself on usually having a ‘chameleon-like’ ability to blend into different social circles has accidentally let her fucked up sense of humour slip in front of her more straight-laced friends, earning herself a round of disapproving side-eyes.
Catching up with her trivia buddies at Betoota’s Golden Age Cinema, Anita Phillips, 28, was navigating the conversation smoothly until the topic turned to her friend Eliza’s newborn, who had spent the past week crying relentlessly for no apparent reason.
“Jacob won’t stop crying, it’s driving me nuts,” sighed Eliza, exhausted from a month of sleepless nights, “Sometimes I wish he had an off button.”
“Well, technically, there is one at the back of his head,” Anita quipped, pressing an imaginary button with a fart noise.
“Haha.”
Looking at her friend’s horrified faces, Anita tries to explain that she’s joking and totally doesn’t advocate for pressing the soft bit on babies heads!
“Dude what the fuck, you can’t joke about that.”
More to come.
