And now she’s playing hard to get!
The joke “Did you hear about the man who filled his inflatable girlfriend up with helium? And now she’s playing hard to get!” employs humor through wordplay and a whimsical scenario. The key element is the use of helium, a gas known for its property of being lighter than air, causing things filled with it to float or rise. The term “inflatable girlfriend” humorously refers to a blow-up doll, often a subject of jokes relating to loneliness or substitute companionship. The phrase “playing hard to get,” typically used to describe someone who is intentionally acting unapproachable or aloof in a romantic context, is humorously literalized here. When the man fills the inflatable girlfriend with helium, she physically floats away, making her literally “hard to get” due to her newfound buoyancy.
