Unemployed Boyfriend Did The Dumbest Shit Ever While You Were At Work And Thinks It's Quite Productive

A charming yet ultimately useless boyfriend has today nonchalantly responded to questions about what the fuck is going on in the living room.

Betoota Grove marketing director, Clara Bryson (27) had returned home to their rented apartment this afternoon with the false and very ambitious hope that her partner might have dinner on the stove.

Instead, it appears that he has decided to relocate the clothesline from the balcony - into the living room - using a stapler gun on the rented plastboard.

"Looks good huh?" says her stay-at-home boyfriend Teddy Brickworth (28).

"Thought it would be way more convenient. You know, with the washer-dry in the kitchen. Plus this way we can watch TV while we do chores"

Clara's response is more that of shock, with every other domestic task - that Teddy could've instead put his mind to - not yet done.

"Wait. What!?" she asks.

Teddy chuckles modestly. He doesn't need to be thanked. He lives here too.

"How long did that take you?" asks Clara.

Teddy smiles and shrugs, before ultimately owning up to a gruelling afternoon of manual labour.

"A fair while, actually. Haha"

"You can see on the wall where I first hung it. That was a bit too low"

Clara, having just arrived home from 10 hours of non-stop phone calls and meetings, can't find it in herself to lose her temper over this.

"He honestly thought this would make my day" she tells the Betoota Advocate.

"So I can't really tell him it's the stupidest shit I have ever seen and that he really should just go and get a white card"

However, as Clara looks at her new indoor clothesline, she can't help be thankful that Teddy at least did the washing.

"But now I have an oversized load of whites and colours hanging in our living room, damp" she says.

Teddy, still unaware of the mixed feelings about his new interior design project, has suggested takeaway for dinner.
