8 | * '''Double Subverted''': But then she texts Bob or calls him back, saying she was just playing with him. |
9 | * '''Parodied''': |
10 | ** Alice and Bob are breaking up: "No, you move on first." |
11 | ** Bob (who is in the military) is ''supposed'' to radio a squadmate, but is instead using the radio to play this game with his girlfriend. |
12 | ** Rather than being done with ending a phone call, it's done with some other action, such as leaving the house. |
13 | ** This mock argument goes on for several days straight, and Alice and Bob both have bloodshot eyes and undereye bags and other obvious signs of exhaustion, but are [[{{Determinator}} still going]]. |
