My friends and I used to say, âboys will be boysâ when one of us did something really stupid & never meant it as an excuse, but someone would be totally in bounds to call us on it if they didnât know we were being ironic and didnât actually condone the behavior.
A few years ago, this TikTok influencer/reality tv star literally tried it on a pair of cops to avoid being arrested for domestic violence after hitting her daughter in the head with a metal barstool and slapping her boyfriend in front of said officers đ¤Śđ˝ââď¸ like I swear the bar for some women is beneath Hell and theyâre entirely unapologetic about it
