She works for the pod Johns, which I guess isn't shocking.

      imv It's a variant on the joke where one character says, "I just broke up with my girlfriend!"

      Then the well-meaning-but-awkward friend / acerbic parent will say "Well, you're never going to do so well as her again!"

      I feel like That 70's Show did this a lot with Eric and Donna's relationship, if you watched that. Sort of a kick the puppy joke, you find someone who's mourning then say something that makes it worse because it's hilariously true.

      the joke is that she sided with the woman instead of her friend so she inverted the usual "my friend just got dumped" stock phrases

        I see. She should probably have used 3 stock phrases then, to improve the joke density and cut the verbal shrug at the end.
