A local Tom has come under fire from his wider family and friendship network.
The local man, who has a chocolate bar named after his current defining personality trait, is on the verge of a serious talking-to after bailing on another event.
The serial flake, named Tom Smith, has come under pressure to guarantee his presence at his friend’s house for the Decider, with his mates playing the long game to secure his attendance.
“You better be cracking a Jimmy (Jim Beam) as Gus Gould revs up the feral New South Welshman,” said one of Brian’s Queensland mates today.
“Yeah, if you think about pulling a smokey again this time, I’ll be off it,” said another mate in the group chat, followed by 4 laughing crying emojis.
This comes after Tom, aka the flakiest mate in the group, decided to pipe up at roughly 7:50pm to let the group know he wouldn’t make it to the pub for game two.
Tom’s actions mirror new research coming from Betoota’s analyst, Jim Beam, who revealed that flaking is the leading cause of disappointment in mates on game night.
And Old Mate Tom over here is just one of many contributing to this disappointing figure.
“Yeah, he claimed he got stuck at work…” sighed another one of his mates, speaking to the Advocate about the looming intervention if Tom doesn’t pull his head in.
“I even brought him a fresh tin on my round because he said he’d get there just before kickoff.”
“And then he flaked.”
“I don’t know what his go is aye. What’s better than watching the footy and a couple of Jim Beams with your mates?”
“Sitting on the couch at home ain’t it.”
“Footy, mates and tins.”
“He needs to sort his priorities.”
When contacted for comment, Tom confirmed to The Advocate that he’s ‘defs gonna be there aye.’
