‘You invented hanging out and drinking?’: Couple’s ‘Bottle Night’ Tradition Sparks Wave Of Hilarious Roasts Online

A couple sharing their intimate ‘Bottle Night’ tradition with the world probably didn’t expect to become the punchline of the internet’s latest comedy fest. This special night, designed to bring them closer, has instead united thousands of netizens—in laughter.

Twitter user Collin Rutherford’s revelation of his and his girlfriend’s cozy ‘Bottle Night’ tradition was meant as a peek into their unique way of valuing quality time together. Born during a blizzard in Buffalo, NY, in 2023, their simple yet intimate ritual involves locking away their phones, turning off the TV, grabbing a bottle of wine each, and just talking—enjoying each other’s company without the usual digital distractions. “We live together, but it’s easy to miss out on ‘quality time’,” Collin reflected, encouraging the internet to share their methods of spending quality time with their partners.

However, the internet, in its infinite jest, opted for a different response. Instead of sharing, they began roasting. From playful jabs to full-on comedic roasts, Collin’s heartfelt revelation quickly turned into a source of amusement, catapulting ‘Bottle Night’ to viral fame overnight. Amid the laughter, it prompts a question: Is ‘Bottle Night’ a forward-thinking approach to modern couple’s therapy, or simply the internet’s newest punchline?

See the hilarious thread that’s overflowing with chuckles, and perhaps you’ll discover a spark of inspiration to disconnect and connect in your own unique way.
