So, as it goes, Mike said, “knock-knock,” to which Ethan replied, “who’s there?” Then, Mike outrageously said, “Joey’s biological parents,” before reportedly bursting into laughter.
Aside from Mike’s laughing fit, though, the rest of the table was in complete silence. Plus, her brother’s facial expression completely changed, and Ethan’s wife even called Mike an idiot.
But, her husband still did not get how inappropriate his joke was and even tried to say, “Hey, relax, it was just a joke.”
Then, if you could not have guessed, dinner was immediately paused, and a massive argument broke out at her parent’s house.
Thankfully, though, her parents did take Ethan and his wife’s side– telling her husband, Mike, that he needed to leave the dinner immediately.
Still, she shockingly believes that her parents took it way too far by trying to kick Mike out. So, she pulled her parents aside and tried to calm them down– explaining that Mike was just joking.
Her mom was not having it, though, and insisted that Mike get out. So, she and her husband ended up leaving, and Mike would not stop complaining about how badly her family “overreacted.”
She also decided to call her mom later in another attempt to talk through the situation. Quite honestly, though, her mom maintained that Mike was entirely out of line by making jokes about an obviously touchy subject.
Moreover, her mom claimed that she should not be defending her husband or claiming he was “just joking” and even accused her husband of ruining New Year’s for the entire family.
She was not hearing her mom, though, and instead snapped back that it was actually her mother and father who ruined the New Year’s Eve celebration by “escalating the situation” and kicking Mike out.
“I also told her he could talk to them. But again, they were the ones who ruined the New Year’s celebration,” she added.
