This comment fells too reddit esque for me, as if it's crafted to solicit upvotes or "facebook up, hit your lawyer and delete the gym" style comments.
- Why is your partner getting the call from the bank when you placed the order?
- If it's a shared account, why would you not forewarn your partner about this transaction? If I'm about to buy pay for something big from our joint account, I sure as hell let my partner know about it ahead of time.
- If none of the above applies, then a simple "it's a portable gaming console that I've been yearning after for ages that I finally ordered earlier today", and 9/10 times that should settle the matter.
- throwaind29k 2y agoIt does feel very reddit-esque the comment, because it seems a tad like an interesting yarn to farm attention without having content of substance.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoHN tells personal stories all the time. I think they just wanted to tell a little joke about how suspicious the word "PlayDate" sounds out of context. I don't think it's so egregious to warrant the 3rd degree. If anything, the overscrutinizing on an innocent story feels more reddit-esque to me.
- supermatt 2y agoIts actually 100% true! It happened no more than a minute before I made the post. I am nowhere near funny enough to make that stuff up :D
- johnnyanmac 2y agoI found it cute. I'm sorry some people are so cynical. I put it as simple as this: what is the maximum harm I have for believing this story vs just chucking and moving on? I see zero risk so trying to join this odd callout fake culture is more disruptive than leaving it be.
