My friend Chloe and I love instagram reels, we don’t see each other that often as she’s got a busy career, lifts weights a lot, is an extrovert with a busy social life - and I have kids and am super busy with all that, and am also an introvert.
But we love nothing more than a running joke on instagram reels, if either of us come across the “yeet yeet skrrrt” reel with Pete Davidson, that’s being sent, or “turning the freaking frogs gay” by whoever that loony is. Duck videos, cute little dawgs and weird existential cartoons.
Anyway, I was driving in town and saw her walking - she is tall, with many many tattoos, piercings and always in gym gear. I’m delighted!! This is my time to shine. I roll down the windows and as I approach, shout “THEYRE TURNING THE FREAKING FROGS GAY!”
She looks up, we lock eyes, and I realise too late that even though Chloe has a really specific look, it appears there is another woman in my small town who looks the same as Chloe from the back.
I pause briefly. The woman looks scared. I know that nothing I can say will explain or excuse me just screaming at her about gay frogs 🐸. I cannot reassure her without further fucking up. I smile awkwardly and drive off. Chloe thought it was hilarious when I told her, but I was MORTIFIED. I’m so sorry, Chloe doppelgänger. I hope you’re doing ok.
Tl;dr - I yelled “they’re turning the freaking frogs gay” at an innocent woman who resembled my friend Chloe, as it’s a running insta reel we send each other. Mortification ensued.
