Halfway through the web of social connections, I was expecting this to end like that old doctor riddle or some sort of logic puzzle where you have to identify people from a set of linked clues.
Kevin came later than Aunt Sheryl and her husband. I am sitting, waiting patiently. As Kevin walks into the room, Aunt Sheryl looks horrified and goes completely silent. Her husband asks if everything is okay and greets Kevin courteously. Throughout dinner, my aunt acts super suspicious and Kevin acts uneasy too. Her husband, bless his stupid soul, doesn’t see any of this and starts actually bonding (the stupid man!). Soon after we finish dinner, we all decide to drink some beers and watch the game. Aunt Sheryl complains of a headache and retreats to the guest bedroom. Kevin also wants to leave but Aunt Sheryl’s husband goads him into staying for a bit longer. Kevin reluctantly agrees.
Back on the site-that-must-not-be-named, u/shittymorph would wander subreddits randomly and drop a comment that seemed relevant, but devolved into a diatribe about a 1998(?) pro wrestling match in which The Undertaker threw Mankind off the top of Hell in a cell, 16 feet into an announcers table.
Damn, I feel like I just channeled him to write that comment.
The husband trusts his wife and doesn’t make a big deal about some awkwardness and tries to be inviting to a new-comer. Instead of always accusing his wife of having an affair everytime they meet a new man. It’s a lose-lose for this fellow
If someone ever tried to show me something on their phone and they have some weird font I just run. What they’re showing is likely going to scar me emotionally and is likely very crazy
