A local woman's attempt to get free birthday ice cream was ruined by her younger brother’s hilarious honesty, which left her embarrassed and unable to contain her amusement.

The hilarious clip, shared on TikTok by @lilithamvandaba88, garnered massive attention from social media users who jokingly said she should have given him a hiding.

The video starts with the young lady sitting at Spur, having convinced the staff that it was her birthday, so she could get free ice cream. The staff crew brings the ice cream, singing happy birthday with a small lit candle, when her younger brother jumps up and shouts that she is lying and that it is not her birthday.

A waitress's perspective on free ice cream

We at Briefly News spoke with Thina Sebenzile to find out what really goes through a waiter's mind when customers try to bend the rules for a complimentary dessert. She said:

"We don't always know! But, in obvious cases, people who are lying would make eye contact, whisper a lot, and sometimes tell us after they've finished eating about the birthday. But we sing anyway because it's still fun."

We asked if this happens often, that a family member or friend accidentally or intentionally exposes a birthday liar. The waitress shared:

"It is never like the kid in the video, but it does happen. Sometimes the customers, especially friends, do that to each other as a way of teasing each other. The one friend this one time came to us and told us that it was her shy friend's birthday. Without hesitation, we went and started singing. She was so shocked while her friend was laughing. When I took the bill to her, she told me that her friend was lying, and that she promised she'd get her back."

After viewers saw the viral clip, they raised concerns that Spur might ask for IDs to prove birthdays. We asked Thina if she thinks that was a possibility. She responded:

"Honestly, it’s not that deep! I don't think it will get to a point where the restaurant demands IDs. The whole Spur birthday experience, the singing, the vibe, the happy families, is worth so much more than the cost of one cup of ice cream. I bet the company may be aware that some people may tell lies to get the treat."

Mzansi discusses the little boy's actions

The video garnered many views, likes, and comments from social media users who were in stitches. Many jokingly said they would have given the little boy a hiding, as he almost ruined a free treat. Some asked, "Who needs enemies when there are brothers like him?" They jokingly advise that he be left behind on the next outing.
