Can someone explain the joke to a silly girl like me
He’s at a horse auction, and doesnt want the auctioneer to think he raised his hand (thus placing a bid). At least I’m pretty sure thats whats going on
It’s also a joke about how very subtle actions count as signaling a bid. Never been to a horse auction so I don’t know how true that is IRL, but it’s a trope in media.
They are at an horse auction. If the man lifts his hand that counts as a bet. He is saying he doesn’t Want to be mistaken for placing a bit by moving incorrectly. It’s just an auction joke that not even OP gets.

Nah, it’s an auction joke that OP gets and is amused by 😁
They have horse auctions in third world countries, you just needed your dopamine.

I know. I just associate ostentatious wealth/purchasing requiring such with the first world more. I’m not saying it’s correct, that’s just how my brain is wired 🤷🏻
you just needed your dopamine.
In my defense, my ADHD means that I’m starting at a significant deficit, so I need a bunch of hits to even arrive at the levels neurotypicals wake up at 🤷🏻
They were using 3rd person you as in, “even if someone is in a 3rd world country they still need their dopamine”. I think you misunderstood.
Fair enough 😁
He can’t afford a $30,000 purchase, let alone the upkeep for a horse
Incorrect. It’s an auction joke.
