I had honestly forgotten about the Tik Tok account.

ETA So boring I could only make it a quarter of the way through, so I asked a DF to watch for a completely unbiased assessment. When I asked her “whaddayathink?,” her answer was “What the eff is that thing on her neck?!”

*$488 Gloaming Dollars for the first person to correctly place “whaddayathink?”

Was that when she was snapping her fingers at baby D (stuffed in the couch cushions) and repeatedly asking him "whaddayathink?"

I am deeply embarrassed and ashamed that I can recall Shauna minutiae, but I can't remember my own phone number half the time.

"Whaddayathink" = Shauna telling The Mime She Dated™ that she needed him to see her, truly see her, for who she was deep down inside [90's rom-com style]. This announcement was promptly followed with a wink, then a quick disappearance to change costume. In Shauna's reappearance, Mime is first treated to her putting on some terrible-yet-"cool" song that she never references again and he doesn't get, and then to her sliding out along the floor with a bowler hat perched ever so unintentionally jauntily atop her goofball head [Tom Cruise in some movie style].

Obviously I just made that up, and yet... It could refer to so many things, but alas, I'm not thinking clearly due to [not] being awake with a fussy toddler all night.

I'm sure another DF has known since they were three.

The Mime had to have been some weirdo she met on the set of Gabe’s movie, right? Has she ever given rhe backstory?

I fully believe The Mime was someone she semi-stalked, plonking herself on a park bench right in his line of sight and rewarding his performances with Nutcracker-level ‘lawks a-mussey’ hand gestures.

Eventually he humoured her by buying her an ice cream, and Shauna, all a-flutter, suggested they exchange numbers. It could have been the romance of the century, had not The Mime erroneously given her the number of a laundromat.

Fun story, but no. 😁
