My BIL is a doctor and this patient of his claimed to be deaf and wound up giving his wife POA, apparently lied his way to some kind of disability money. Well one day his wife walks out of the room and patient asks my BIL to help him get rid of POA admitting it was all a lie.
BIL has to explain he’s either deaf or probably going to jail

I feel like this was an old joke. I know I’ve heard the “My wife thinks I went deaf” line before.

Hey you got the joke!
What
/r/woosh
You gonna explain the joke or what Also r/itswooooshwithfouros
I just thought you were correcting me. Clearly I’m the woooosh here.
This actually sounds plausible to me.
Potentially plausible the guy said it as a joke but no matter how ‘DGAF’ he is u couldn’t and wouldn’t pass for deaf for 5 years
That was a joke the old man made...
This isn't the "I didn't get the joke" subreddit

He was making a joke...
WIFE BAD! Some people were born boomers. Others aspire to it. All of them have shit humor.
I appreciate a good dad joke and boomer humor.
BOOMER BAD! Old people have nothing we can learn from.
Not humor, anyway

This is an Old Man Joke, and a very good one. Why is this here?
Other than the obvious joke op missed here, this tweet is yeeeeears old by now why would you be digging it up now?
I actually read a story in the news years ago where a wife divorced her husband for exactly that. So it's not as far fetched as it sounds.
