When a person says or does
something jokingly only to find out it's actually
true or currently happening. Most joke
reality checks are 'what if' situations.
Duder 1: "Oh my god dude look out the window at that red
car. Looks like my ex's huh? What if it was? That would be so
weird. She doesn't even know where I live."
Duder 2: "Holy shit dude isn't that her brother getting out of the car? That is her dude."
Duder 1: "Fuck! Are you kidding? I hope she didn't see me or my car outside."
Duder 2: "Ha ha that's funny
shit. Talk about a joke reality check."
