PREGOVILLE — Pregnancy announcements have become increasingly elaborate in the age of social media.

It's highly improbable that if you were to open Facebook or Instagram and scroll for more than 90 seconds that you wouldn't find someone debuting a baby bump with a photo shoot, balloon release of some kind or by solving three riddles.

Since our world has become so visual and we share all kinds of personal information with friends of friends and that girl who lent you her extra pencil in homeroom, it makes sense that people are thinking of fun ways to share milestones on their timeline.

In the case of Alexa Goolsby on YouTube, she decided to tell her parents about her pregnancy with a video. But wait, there's more! She did it while her parents are playing the whisper game — a challenging party game where a person wearing noise-cancelling earphones with music blaring tries to guess what someone sitting across from them is whispering. No easy task in and of itself.

The joy of this video is that the audience knows the irony of grandpa being unable to guess this monumental piece of information that will change his life forever, all while the viewer is in on the joke. It's a delight.

It's also fantastic that it took grandma all of two seconds to guess the phrase.

Always waiting for the man to catch up, am I right ladies?
