A Classic Case of Miscommunication ♀️
This tale of miscommunication has left a friend group divided. After losing money at the casino, our protagonist tried to save some cash by only ordering water at a nightclub. When their friend said, ‘don’t worry about it,’ they assumed it meant their friend was buying their next drink. However, the friend later denied this, leading to a small argument and ongoing jokes in their group chat. With the friend group split on who’s in the wrong, it seems this misunderstanding has left everyone with a lesson to learn: always clarify before putting drinks on someone else’s tab!
