Who hasn’t made a promise and ended up breaking it during a relationship? Well, no one! We have all been there, especially in committed relationships where we thought that partner might be the one. Maybe some of us even made promises like this with good intentions. But intentions aside, we go through very particular emotions when memories of these promises hit us, especially when we go through our chat history with exes! This is when the feelings of being “clowns” hit us.

The whole “clown” meme is not only Egyptian; it’s also international! If you don’t understand what it means, it’s when someone uses the clown emoji after a text. It mainly refers to someone feeling stupid about something they just mentioned. Case in point, this clown-emoji-littered tweet by an Egyptian girl is about her reading her old texts from her ex, who promised never to leave her. Haven’t we all been there?

Egyptians took the liberty to share some of their old texts in this Twitter user’s replies, in which they received similar promises, with tweets like this one standing out for being too funny!

Someone promised this Egyptian Twitter girl that they would never make her sad and ended up “feeding her sadness with a spoon”. Despite how tragic the situation is, how funny is that expression?
