You ever be dating a girl with hair extensions and try to run your fingers through her hair? And that's how you found out she had extensions? Surprise! Hair extensions are bullshit.

My first thought was "what the fuck"

Then I looked at who posted it and went "that's pretty tame actually"

BonesOfTheMoon ,

My husband shaved his beard when I was napping one day and came to wake me up. I had no idea who he was.

afraid_of_zombies ,

Watch La Moustache with him.

LemmyFeed ,

Oh haha took me a minute.

Cralex ,

Same here. Clearly I need more sleep.

hakunawazo ,

So you are finally awake Link...

"Then why am I still tired? Clearly I need a few more years of sleep."

joyjoy ,

You were trying to cross the border, right?

Is this how the barbershop in GTA works

Vgcats? Nice

This is how this conversation would go with my wife and I:

"Oh god! You're finally awake!!! Babe, you've been asleep for two years!!!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Look how long you've been gone!"

"Everything looks exactly the same as when I went to sleep."

"No it isn't! Look at my hair!"

"Oh, did you get a haircut? It looks nice."

I'm not good with details.

ladicius ,

Same with me. Her hair suddenly was half as long - I didn't notice.

LemmyKnowsBest ,

half as long

🤔

ladicius ,

She really had long hair - did still look long to me after a lot was cut off.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

My wife dyed her hair a totally different color and she got mad that I didn't say anything for a few days. Because I honestly didn't realize she did.

That would be a coma

KomfortablesKissen ,

"Nice, all plans cancelled with a valid excuse."

Jax ,

Am I the only one that would probably be gaslit into believing it and be really really pissed off when I learned the truth?

KomfortablesKissen ,

Honestly I would be angry too. But then after I would have completely woken up I would laugh about it. And think of a payback. Maybe even something involving a moist, cold sponge.

pastermil ,

Oddly specific... Tell us more about this moist, cold sponge.

KomfortablesKissen ,

It's very versatile. It can be used as a threat, a sudden shock or long term torture. I'm not comfortable going into further detail.

Quetzalcutlass ,

My brother-in-law once put a slice of bread on my sleeping sister's stomach, and when their dog (a very gluttonous beagle) started chowing down, woke her up by shaking her while shouting "the dog is eating your flesh!"

He's great. There's a reason he became my best friend after they married.

I think it'd be funny. But different strokes for different folks, I reckon.

The year can be easily checked online and you usually keep your phone besides you on the night stand

Deceptichum ,
@Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works avatar

Are you an idiot? After 2 years my battery would be dead.

pastermil ,

The girlfriend would keep it charged, dummy

lightnsfw ,

You don't plug your phone in during your naps?

CanadianCarl ,

No, I don't want to overcharge it.

lightnsfw ,

usually by naptime mines down to like 30-40% and the nap is about right to get it back to ~80ish. Mines pretty old though I guess it's different with newer ones and fast charging.

CanadianCarl ,

I just had my battery replaced, so it works like new.

mojofrododojo ,

I'd think it was funny because without a lot more evidence I wouldn't believe it true.

Don't get me wrong some pranks are dick moves, but, this.... nah

fallingcats , (edited )

Funny thing, you probably couldn't actually. None of the current TLS certificates would be valid in a couple of years

x4740N ,
@x4740N@lemm.ee avatar

Websites can renew those

fallingcats ,

No. Many certificates are only valid for a couple months to years into the future. Many websites wont work if you set your system time to +5 years, because most certificates won't be valid for that time.

DaPorkchop_ ,

Yeah, but even without network time updates your device's internal clock is probably accurate enough to be able to tell if 2 years have passed or not. If it has an error of ≥2 years per 2 years, you need a new clock.

fallingcats ,

The premise was that the spouse set the phone clock into the future. That has nothing to do with how accurate the RTC is (usually <10s/day)

DannyBoy ,

Or after you spend a few minutes waking up and realizing you're in the same clothes, in the same spot, and none of your stuff has moved.

Jax ,

Yeah but I'm dumb

neo ,

As someone who doesn't like April Fools', I see your point. This plays with the trust of their relationship. However, if the trust is solid and there is a mutual understanding of how they can play with that trust, it's probably fine.

I guess it depends on the couple, e.g. how frequently they joke in a similar manor, what they know about their trigger points or if there is a hidden struggle for power. I think for most couples this would be a harmless prank both can laugh about and kiss afterwards.

Chainweasel ,

Yes, yes you are. And I sincerely hope for the women around you that you're single. That's not healthy and you should probably seek counseling.

Maalus ,

Ah yes another psychiatrist diagnosing people through a single comment online.

corus_kt ,

Jumping to conclusions on little to no evidence is a bigger red flag than a person who blindly trusts their partner when abruptly shaken awake.

Jax ,

We can't all be perfect like you

helpImTrappedOnline ,

It would depend on how long the joke goes on and to what extreme.
"5 minutes super confused, until I look at my phone" = okay
"An elaborate prank where she changed all the dates that lasts 20 minutes = okay
"A day of being told my family died, world ended, etc" = not okay.

bionicjoey ,

Idk, I think I'd be impressed by the effort for that last one

Joelk111 ,

I straight up wouldn't buy it, but, if I did, I'd love it.

ChihuahuaOfDoom ,

"Ok but can I at least have 10 more minutes?"

blanketswithsmallpox ,
marduk ,

Wow, you got em with that 2003 throwback.

God damn we're old.

I can see why he married her.

I hope I'm lucky enough to marry a woman like her one day.

LouNeko ,

I hope I'm lucky enough to marry a woman like her one day.

RickAstleyfounddead ,

I hope I'm lucky enough to get a girlfriend

DeaDvey ,

I hope I'm lucky enough to get a girlfriend

CanadianCarl ,

I hope I'm lucky

JoShmoe ,

That was a good twist
