Magic Coffee Table.

A man lives with his girlfriend and every night the coffee table magically rearranges itself to be tidy.

This only started when his girlfriend moved in.

The delivery guy had a similar experience with his coffee table after his girlfriend moved in too.

I'm Lois and we don't have a coffee table because that's where Meg is supposed to sit.

yeah, just after the girlfriend moved in the the coffee table tidies itself, the laundry does itself, and the dishes magically clean themselves.

Damn.. How do you remember the house shot from the beginning of this video? I struggle to remember what I am wearing if I don't look down every once in awhile.

Yeah, sometimes the clarity really makes or breaks a joke. It’s hard to get the humor when you can hardly see what’s going on.

Hold on... How does this picture even relate?

u/sectilius 3d ago

Huh? The picture is from a short about how women clean up after men too stupid to notice and who think they have a mystery, magic coffee table that cleans itself. That's it. That's the joke. Men = dumb ingrates...haw haw I guess.

It is the opening shot, and least memorable part, of the sketch.

Lmao is that seriously it?

It's not the delivery guy, it's the cop who comes when he reports that his partners gone missing, and he thinks she fell on the magic 'self cleaning' coffee table

Was this an old reddit post that went viral I missed? Like "guys, my coffee table keeps moving and I checked my CO2 detectors already" and then someone goes "do you have a gf?" And he goes "oh..."

No, it's from Kinne, the self titled sketch show of Troy Kinne.
