Damn the top comments didn’t understand this joke at alll lol . The joke is that when a woman is in excruciating pain in labor and the guy goes “it’s ok honey you got this!” she often flies into a rageee and starts cussing up a storm “Oh do I “got this” Dave?? you so and so!” 😭 my bestie works in the labor and delivery and she jokes about this kinda thing all the time . The nurse here knows what’s about to come cuz she’s seen some things iykwim. That’s what the joke really is.

Yeah, I was surprised by all the top comments thinking it was a positive reaction.  90s American sitcoms taught me that saying this would cause anger.
