Cam someone explain this???


Sorry if this is a stupid question, but when Amber says something to the effect of "my neighbour found my dress on his roof...weird part is, it was still on the hanger!" What is that implying??? That the neighbour stole the dress?

Sorry, silly question, I just never understood that part!

Douchebags ARE hygienic products; I take that as a compliment. Thank you!

It's been a while....was that after the explosion?

I always saw it as just another twist of fate that helped Amber along the way, but I might be missing the joke too.


Sat and forever am at work here.

she wasn't implying anything except that it was incredible that her dress not only survived the explosion and flight to the neighbor's roof, but stayed on the hanger.

reply

I agree with the last poster. The way Dumst delivered the line, it did feel like there was a joke between the lines, but I think it was just part of the running gag that fate wanted Amber to win.

reply

I assumed it meant that the neighbour boy had actually "borrowed" the dress to dress up in and just said he found it to cover the fact that it hadn't burned up in the fire.

reply

Yep. That's it exactly. Thank you for clearing it up, Caitlyn Jenner.

It took me a long time to find the punchline in this joke, but I think the ironic part is that the dress is still in perfect condition. Not a scratch or tear on it.
