"A vowel's a doing word." Joey probably believed Sean but then that piece of information disappeared into the abyss along with everything else he's ever been taught.

[@davidh7177]

To be fair, Sean saying anything is believable!

[@AntTonyLOLKID]

Too bad he said he still didnt understand 😅

[@XenoFonia]

You're not actually wrong. He stopped being able to learn things regularly at the age of 10 when his mum committed suicide. He is as intelligent as any his age, he just isn't as knowledgeable, and at some point he must have realised that this can come off as charming when combined with his looks, so he likely plays it up even more, to be likeable exactly the way Joey Tribianni is on Friends.

[@shewasunderwhelmed]

The cheeky wink WAS very nice!

[@TroubledLoner]

Always wondered if Joey realizes just how much of a dullard he really is. I think he does, but he doesn't care. Some people get looks, some brains, very few get both. I actually like Joey because he takes his lack of brainpower with good humor.

[@bels3873]

I think he definitely realises, but is just naturally good-natured about it. I find it endearing, in a dopey way.

Just like to end with a Thank You to our American friends for 'friends,' 'big bang theory' and 'how I met your mother,' all of which have humour and pathos due to the ensemble cast members familial affinities!
