When you get a sexy text from a stranger and just as you set off the “wee woo wee woo boner alert 🚨” you then wonder to yourself if the text is actually from a scammer being held captive in Myanmar or Cambodia
Me: Hey, I just got a wrong number text from a really hot Russian girl
Boris: Oh yeah? What’s she look like?
Me: (shows my phone to my friend)
Boris: She’s hawt! Uh oh! Wee woo wee woo boner alert 🚨….. uh wait a minute
Me: oh no
Boris: yeah, this is John Oliver effect.
