After his son accidentally cracked the new iPhone 15 Pro Max that he had bought just a week ago, he decided to respond in a light-hearted and inventive manner.
Jackie took to Facebook and posted a humorous 'for sale' ad, sharing a photo of the slightly cracked back of the phone. He wrote, "My son dropped my iPhone 15 Pro Max, which I just bought last week, and cracked the phone slightly." But what followed was a delightful surprise.
He continued the post with a playful twist: "Still in working condition, but decided to sell it off cheap. Below are the specs, PM me if you are keen."
Then, in a humorous move, he listed "12 years old, Chinese, male, speaks English and Mandarin. Price negotiable."
The 'specifications' of his son left thousands of social media users amused, and Jackie's post quickly gained attention, with over 72,000 shares and more than 200,000 likes. Most of the netizens, particularly parents, couldn't help but chuckle at his clever approach.
As the comments flooded in, Jackie maintained the humorous spirit in his responses. Many people even jokingly messaged him with offers in a playful and heartwarming exchange of laughter.
