Hello and welcome back to the podcast.
I'm Michael.
I'm Noe.
We are the Knights of Entertainment, a podcast covering your favorite and unknown movies,
games, comic books, anime, and more.
Weekly, we appreciate you being here and hope you enjoy the show.
This week we do not have cozy nights.
We'll be a little bit shorter this week.
Yes, but we will.
It'll be back next week.
I know you guys love it.
It's the greatest show in, you know, 18 million viewers.
So what do we have in Urban Dictionary today?
More randomness.
Oh, God.
That's a, that always scares me whenever you say randomness.
If it's random for me, it's going to be even more for you people.
This one's just fun.
It's called Shakes.
It's a lib party that involves drinking and or drugs.
It's called, I guess because they start shaking.
I don't know.
They start having like seizures.
This one, I guess, pertains to me called Brown Bag.
It's a guy that has a good personality, a sense of humor, et cetera, but doesn't cut
it in the appearance department.
Therefore he is doable if you are drunk or he wears a paper bag over his header balls.
It's a couple of Brown Bag specials out there.
The woman told me like if she was like Scarlett Johansson, freaking Margaret Robbie, right?
The only way I'll hook up with you is you put a brown bag, like how many?
I'll pull it out of my pocket.
What?
I'll pull it out of my pocket.
I got it ready, girl.
Get you that bronze Brown Bag special just.
Basically, yeah, like I would not be offended at all.
If she's like, I need you to put this blindfold on because I don't want to look at you and
I want you to look at me.
Problem.
I guess that wouldn't work because I have to see her.
But if she said like, you got to put in this get mask and put that close to your mouth
because I don't want you making noise, but you can still see it.
Like, okay, you got it.
You're basically saying you're down bad for anything.
Yeah, like if the woman's like, all you got to do is put on this fucking like plastic bag
over your face.
Like, no problem.
If I pass that, just keep riding.
Men are whores is what I'm telling you, ladies.
We are not offended at all.
If you say, if the six foot nine woman says like, I don't like short guys, but I need
one for my bucket list.
I'm like, I'm right here, ma'am.
Hello.
Be like, Mrs. Delphi.
Hello.
Men can shrug off anything.
Any offense.
In general, it goes.
It's just what we do.
Especially when like they're not like we're not like the caliber of like Ryan Gosling,
you know, or like just like the super like the epitome of like guys, right?
Like a six, nine rugged mountain man.
Just a short, fat Hispanic man in the city.
I can't I can't go out.
It's too cold.
It's 50 degrees outside.
Next one's called the Amarillo sunrise.
This maneuver is performed in the morning after a sexual encounter when one partner
would like the other to leave and never to return while he or she is asleep.
The other stands up and urinates upon his or her head.
I guess I do have standards.
I don't like urine or bodily fluids of that nature.
If a girl started to piss and I'm like, I will see you later, ma'am.
Good day, ma'am.
I'll be like, huh?
I'm leaving.
I rip off the gift mask.
Everything else is fine.
But that my ass is like like red from the slamming.
My dick in a vice.
But she put one you wouldn't one drop of urine.
I'm done.
I'm done, ma'am.
Remove this dildo from my asshole.
I've read you draw the line.
Everything else is part of it.
Not even the same for it ready.
I'm like, what's the safer piss?
Next up is jack off, buddy.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
So a friend you watch porn with and jerk off in the same room while watching porn can be
can be between two perfectly straight males.
No, it can't.
And activity more commonly shared in the male's teen years with the friends.
No, I hate.
I think this guy's trying to justify.
What he and his buddies used to do.
Well, I guess super straight, bro.
It's not gay at all.
Marlon.
It's a little bit of a fetish.
This one's called sex band.
A band you wear around your wrist.
If someone else breaks it, they must have sex with you.
So you go.
They can't give that to them, dude.
You're pregnant.
I wouldn't.
That shit would be broken.
What I do with it?
I'd like to wrap it around my dick.
Break this.
Break the seal.
Break the seal and release the demon.
Next one is as holier.
The condition when someone has become a true asshole.
Oh, yeah, that exists for a lot of people.
Yeah, I guess so.
There's a lot of people that suffer that somebody just born with the condition.
Yeah, it's true.
But I'm not going to view people.
It's just like, I don't know, like not to have a level of introspection in your brain,
to say like, maybe I shouldn't say this stuff to this person.
Someone like, they like to think they're like, sort of like nihilistic, like, oh, you know,
I don't care what people think.
And they just say it was the meanest shit ever.
Yeah.
That's because you're just an asshole.
Yeah.
Not because you're so much above everyone else.
It'd be different.
But then these same people get offended.
Immediately.
Yeah.
Like, oh, you say that about me because you're a fucking douchebag.
No, it's different if you say, you know what, I don't have to be like, I don't mind what
I say, but I'm still not going to go out of my way to try to offend somebody.
Yeah.
I'm that way.
Some people are just assholes.
I'm a natural born one.
Hey.
It's fine.
What could you do?
Next one is dick palming.
The process of drawing a penis on the palm of your hand and then tricking someone into
looking at it.
Very middle school.
How do you trick them?
Like, here, look at this.
Look.
That's a cock.
Next one is called intense fuckery, having anal sex intensely or having hardcore sex.
Sex so hard that you got to ration your dick or your dildo will start melting.
Usually cause what?
Usually cause the space and time to erupt.
Oh my God.
Good Lord.
And this one is called a big green dildo.
This one is odd to me because I see if it's odd to you, it makes me concerned.
So it says a massive candle filled with Gains.
It's literally an unstoppable force that smashes resistance and raises the floor.
It's a candle.
It's filled with Gains.
I don't know if it's a fucking laundry detergent or what the fuck they're talking about.
I'm confused as fuck.
Yeah.
It says it must be a massive fucking candle somewhere that smells like Gain laundry detergent.
That they keep using this dildo?
That no, it says it's literally an unstoppable force that smashes resistance and raises the
floor.
I don't fucking know what it's for.
They just light the candle.
Huh.
It's not even a sexual item.
It's a fucking candle.
It'll melt your asshole.
Won't it?
Confusing one.
Next one is pretendinitis.
It made up injury to get out of doing something.
I've seen that a lot.
Pretendinitis.
I have definitely seen that.
It is truly epidemic.
Yes.
I will give you a huge example without giving details of where I work.
I have a coworker.
Was at a place that does, what are they, like contacts probably or something like that.
It's called Eyecare or something, right?
Eyeplace.
It's not retail so you don't go into the place to see these people.
It's kind of like a little bit of a warehouse type thing, right?
So he goes in there.
It's summertime.
So if he pretends that he's having heat exhaustion.
Oh, I think you told me that story, yeah.
He falls out on the couch that they have on the inside of there.
He calls his mama, calls my brother, which is the supervisor.
He comes out.
His mama's on the phone.
He needs a wet towel.
Just get him a wet towel and some gravy.
And he's like, where the fuck am I going to get water from for this?
That's pretendinitis.
Pretendinitis.
Don't want overboard to act like you're hurt so you ain't got to finish your job for the
day.
Well, guess he was real hot that day.
It was hot every other day.
I don't let the dude live it down for months.
I hope they're crying like flying out on the damn bed, the damn couch and stuff.
And they just all laid up, had these people in this business worried.
I wouldn't be worried because I thought he was hurt.
I'm like, if he dies, he dies.
He dies.
It's his time.
I would just call an ambulance.
Like come get him.
Well, you don't want that.
He wanted to call his mama.
Hey man, if you're sick, you get an ambulance.
I don't care what you want.
And to put things into perspective, this dude is at least six foot or two.
Six foot two.
Six foot two, 200 and something pounds.
200 and something, like over the like ideal body weight.
Damn.
Chunky, not muscular.
I wouldn't say like if you're six two and you're like 200 something, it's not bad.
290.
It's a big boy.
He looks like he's pregnant.
Okay.
That's a real big boy.
That's my story.
Pretendinitis.
It exists in every workforce, every workforce.
And that I do now.
Or you get to, I've seen somebody act like they smashed their foot.
It's like, oh, I can't walk.
It's like bullshit.
I hit the fucking floor.
I didn't hit you.
Worked at a car parts place a long time ago.
There was a rotor that fell off a shelf.
He smacked the floor in front of him.
Oh, no, don't even fucking play that.
I already knew what you did.
He's like, no, no, I thought it hit me.
I thought it hit me.
Why were you screaming?
Pretendinitis.
You know, I saw a video the other day.
It wasn't pretendinitis.
These two guys were fighting and the other guy had him in top position and the guy on
the ground bit his dick.
That's not pretendinitis.
He was fucking screaming.
Oh, at first it like, I guess his brain couldn't register.
Right.
But then he really started screaming.
I would too.
I don't know.
I'd probably be cussing him out.
You snuck the fuck out of him.
Exactly what I'm saying.
You nasty motherfucker.
Get off my dick.
That's right.
I tried to stand up and drop back down hard as fuck.
I cracked his skull on the concrete.
After that, it's dead or alive rules.
Exactly.
You went too far with that one.
You got one of my balls in your mouth.
You're not going to be alive after that.
I like how the guy that was another guy that was filming right, he had his camera to one
side.
All right.
He stopped biting his dick.
He was just like patting the guy on the ground.
The guy's like, ah, ah, ah.
I was like, man.
Well, that's it for Urban Dictionary.
That's everything you got for Urban Dictionary and I.
That's the ten for the week.
Cool.
All right.
Then we will go into our breakdown then for the week.
Today we have a comic book series.
Yay.
A little bit different for this week.
This is one from 1991.
It's called War of the Gods.
Preacher.
Garth Anis.
What?
The movie.
The TV show Preacher.
Oh, yeah.
Based off of the comic.
I don't know why I just yelled that out.
You heard the word God.
You had to speak.
Yeah, Preacher.
All right.
War of the Gods was a four issue limited series published in September to December of 1991.
September, October, November, December.
Yeah, they did it.
Don't you hate when it's inconsistent?
Yeah, I do.
It's like January 1st and then it was like July 7th.
Like, what the fuck?
Why do you guys take so long for this issue, too?
I know, generally.
The series was written by Wonder Woman series writer and artist.
I mean, by Wonder Woman, I'm like, whoa.
George Perez, who also provided the layouts.
Finished art and embellishments were provided by Cynthia Martin and Russell Braun.
Each issue in the series was 48 pages in length and included centerfold bonus pinups illustrated
by Chris Sprouse and George Perez.
How long do you take to finish a comic book?
Generally takes less than a month.
If it's a team or if it's just by yourself?
Yeah, it's a team.
If it's by yourself or really short staff?
What's that series that's out?
Damn it.
It's a series by an independent dude that he he went on to kickstarter or whatever that
is to get it started.
What's that about?
Damn it.
Hang on a second.
It's freaking you out, huh?
Yes, because I want to remember what it is.
All right.
Rip-a-verse is what I was thinking of.
Rip-a-verse.
Yeah.
He funded it all himself.
Jack the Ripper of the universe.
He's a superhero.
All right.
So continuing now, the storyline crossed over into most of the mainstream titles published
at the time and culminated in the the unofficial epilogue in Wonder Woman number 62, which
also signifies signified Perez's departure from the series.
Although the title featured many heroes that populate the greater DC universe, War of the
Gods focused heavily on Wonder Woman and many of the supporting characters from her title,
specifically the Gods of Olympus.
You know what's missing from the new movies?
What's that?
Is they're, aside from having their own individual movie, is a nice core of supporting cast.
Their supporting characters also makes their mythos more believable.
Yeah, and they don't have that a lot.
They started really stripping it the further they got down.
Marvel did that too, really bad.
Like they, toward the end they did, yeah.
Like it was just like big name heroes.
Like Ant-Man, right?
The first two movies, he had a nice set of recurring, like, supporting cast.
The Hispanic guy, which was hilarious.
He was fucking hilarious.
Yeah.
That one other guy, what was his name?
T.I. or something?
The rapper or the singer?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
You had that Russian guy.
If it looked like Duck, it talked like Duck.
I can assure you it's Duck.
Yeah.
And like then they just tried, in quantum verse, he was, didn't know them were there.
It was just him and then Wasp.
Wasp, I mean, you had, you know, the, Hank Pym.
Yeah, and then her mom.
And the daughter.
Like it focused more on...
DistortiSly.
Yeah.
But I'm like, you know, you need to keep, and like Thor had, you know, Natalie Portman
was a supporting character, but then they made her a hero.
They had Kat Dennings as a character.
You had the, Hunter Selvick.
Yeah.
And I'm like, you got to keep your core, you know, so they can...
You didn't see any of the Asgardians.
No, like not Hela or, what was her name?
Like a Sif?
Yeah, you didn't have Sif.
The Heroes 3 got killed in the freaking, what was it, Ragnarok?
Yeah.
I'm like, why?
It went too fast to, like way too quickly though they did.
Like you have to keep a supporting cast for your single characters.
Yeah.
Well, they got rid of all the big ones.
They got rid of, what's her name?
Freya.
They got rid of her.
They got rid of Odin.
Like they did it all too quickly.
Yeah.
Because Odin was around in the comic books for a god-awful long time.
Like...
Some will say too long.
Like, I got it, Dad.
I know what I'm doing.
Thor.
I know what I'm doing.
God of War.
God of Thunder.
And you see here, Slam the Door.
Fuck, man.
Damn.
Like in the first movie when Odin banishes into Earth.
Yeah.
That was like, like master class acting.
Yeah.
It really was.
They just moved it along too quickly though.
They really did though with Spider-Man too.
They got rid of all his supporting characters.
People are like, he needs fucking J. Jonah Jameson.
Yeah.
He needs Mary Jane, Gwen Stacy, his aunt.
Yeah.
You know, like Harry Osborn is not a bad guy.
Right.
And they're like, whatever.
We got three Spider-Man.
It's completely just got rid of everything else.
Doctor Strange, same thing.
I don't know.
I don't even know if he even had.
Like other than Wong.
Wong, the ancient one was around for a little while.
And it wasn't like he just got the abilities and then the ancient one's just gone.
I guess that was true.
You know what I mean?
It just sucks now.
Yeah.
I think, I think everyone just burnt down the superhero movies.
Yeah.
Whenever they're all CGI and nobody cares too much.
Well, yeah.
They got the crop.
The only good one was Guardians of the Galaxy 3.
Yeah.
People were fucking weeping.
Yeah, but I guess because they already had like the main characters was a supporting
cast also.
Yeah.
What had more emotional investment.
Yeah.
Sure.
But more so than any like Thor, Love and Thunder.
That was one of the most boring shits I have ever seen.
Oh, come on.
What about that thick Natalie Portman?
No.
She was thick.
CGI thick.
It gave me all the thickness.
But you don't like CGI?
I don't like CGI, but that's true.
But I want to see her thick.
But she wasn't thick because of being thick.
I want to see her crack a walnut with her thigh.
And now watch her.
You've seen what she really looked like.
She really looked like the cancer patient.
She was that skinny?
Yeah, she was skinny.
I guess she's always been really petite.
Yeah.
Especially in Black Swan.
Yeah.
She was like rail fed on my damn girl.
Eat a sandwich.
All right.
So the plot involved Wonder Woman's most notorious adversary, Cersei, and her ambitious goal
to satisfy the vengeance of the goddess Hecate.
Cersei?
Mm-hmm.
Does that mean Ares?
No.
Her most notorious.
Ares?
Not that most powerful.
Like I thought like her big one was Ares.
No, Cersei was always the big in the comic books.
Really?
Yeah.
I never knew.
Cersei was the crazy witch bitch that...
That or the cheetah chick?
No.
I think Cersei was one of her first villains.
Like big, big villains.
One could say she popped her chair.
Yeah.
No.
It's possible.
Remember, Wonder Woman used to always be tied up.
Yeah, that man loved him some BDSM.
The original writer?
Yeah.
Man.
She did it to satisfy the vengeance of the goddess Hecate by destroying and ultimately
remaking all of reality.
She did it for the views.
Yes.
She did it for the gram.
Before the gram existed.
She created the gram.
Pretty much.
That's what gives her her power.
Cersei's motivations were predicated by an ancient prophecy that foretold that Hecate
would repossess her soul upon the death and birth of witch.
Who's witch?
Of the witch.
Oh, of the witch?
Of the witch.
Yeah.
So we're going to start with the story here.
To appease the vengeful desires of her matron goddess Hecate, Cersei set out to destroy
the earth and the goddess Gaia.
Cersei enlisted the aid of the Amazons of Bana Megadal who longed to take Thymiscara
as their own.
As well as Dr. Conrad Kaslak, who stole several mystical artifacts for her.
Cersei also had the cooperation of Aerys, the scheming daughter of Aerys.
Basically to back her up.
Okay.
Cersei used the artifacts to wave the Hellfire Web which blanketed the entire world.
At the same time waking the gods of several pantheons.
So apparently they weren't like active within the world.
Through the artifacts she was able to spur the gods to make war against one another.
The spell was powerful enough to even affect the new gods and new Genesis and Apocalypse.
Oh damn.
Like, it was a very powerful ability there.
I bet you'd talk to them like I don't feel anything different.
They would have done it anyway.
On New Olympus, the Roman gods took arms against their Greek counterparts in a bid to reclaim
their lost legacy.
Through the Romans, who sought to use the sons of Vulcan as their champion, he had refused
realizing something was not right.
Instead they used Captain Marvel in battle against the champion of the Greeks, Wonder Woman.
I mean, Chazam I guess.
Captain Marvel.
He was still called that.
Right.
With the whole god damn dispute.
Yeah.
The two champions fought before both were cast from New Olympus, each ending in different
locations.
Through all of this, New Olympus pierced the veil between the worlds and appeared in the
skies above Earth.
This caused widespread geological disasters across the globe, forcing Earth's heroes to
band together.
Cersei intensified the strength of the Hellfire Web, placing a strangle hold on Gaia herself.
To combat the heroes of Earth, she sent forth the Beastomorphs that attacked several American
cities, including Chicago, Boston, and Gotham City.
Peacemorphs?
Beastomorphs.
Like for like the-
Not the Animorphs.
Okay, I was like, little kids can turn into-
No, Beastomorphs.
It's like a half human, half animal.
Like a-
Minotaur.
Kinda, yeah.
Okay.
And since, remember, in ancient Greek mythology, Cersei was the one that turned men into pigs?
Hmph.
Like in the mythos.
What she looked like.
She hot?
She could turn me into whatever.
You would probably think so.
She could turn me into a wheel of cheese.
What?
Just eat you?
Is she gonna-
In the Tower of Fate in Salem, Dr. Fate gathered several powerful mystics, as well as Geo Force
and Animal Man.
Two older characters.
Alright, randomest.
I need you too.
Remember, Animal Man can sense, like through the, what is it, the Animal Life Force or
something?
Yeah.
I need Mossy Mentos.
Yeah.
In an effort to create counter spells to reverse the effects of Cersei's magic.
Cersei had expected this and planned on cultivating the energy from the spells the group was now
casting, but her plan backfired and her spells were undone.
Tracking one of the artifacts, Wonder Woman discovered that Banna Migdal Temple and fought
their leader, Shemtar, who was revealed in defeat to be her mother Hippolyta, under a
spell.
Hm.
With her mother rendered unconscious in the battle, Wonder Woman took her to Thymuscyra
to heal.
Dragging from her fortress by the Suicide Squad, because the Suicide Squad existed during
this time.
Hey, all the way back in 91?
Yeah.
Sheesh.
Cersei headed to Thymuscyra and drew Wonder Woman out to the same beach where she had been
formed by Hippolyta years ago.
By the way, what do you think of the game coming out?
Of Suicide Squad?
Yeah.
Haven't even seen it.
Well.
I don't want to see it.
You're in for a surprise.
The IGN reviewer said that the flash was too fast.
I think the IGN was also the one that the author or whatever couldn't finish the fucking
game because it was Cuphead.
They said Cuphead was too hard.
Because they couldn't jump over the pillar?
Yeah.
I think it was IGN.
Do they not hire actual gamers?
It's Gaming Magazine, Zane.
I mean, pay me and I'll play the game for you.
They won't.
I got to be Cuphead.
I've been Cuphead twice.
I don't know how many people don't read any of these things anymore just for the playing
like game reviews anyway.
Like articles, they are where they are.
But like game reviews, people don't even pay attention to anymore because they don't hire
real gamers to do the fucking the articles.
Just pay a couple of streamers and like they'll review the game for you.
Hell Ninja could probably like if you gave him an FPS game, Ninja can review it there.
It's just like the comment, the flash is too fast.
Boo hoo.
I'm like, yeah, he's supposed to be fast.
Like I said, after seeing that with Cuphead and every magazine play Dark Souls, they won't
even look at they're also the ones that IGN specifically.
I remember they wrote an article.
Don't remember who it was, but they said that games like Dark Souls because who reminded
me of that game souls like Dark Souls and Cuphead need to be made and have an easy level.
Oh, Cuphead does have an easy level.
I know it's so hard.
It's still too hard.
It's called GG.
Get good.
You know what the eagle of a dark soul is?
The first run.
Yeah.
New game plus is a goddamn gauntlet.
Yeah.
And then new claim new game plus times seven.
It's impossible.
I mean, I don't get it.
I don't even ask questions anymore.
That's why I don't read any of the reviews anymore.
I always ask questions.
I see for me reviews now, if you guys ever want really good reviews, go to a place like
what do you call it?
Come to nights of entertainment.
Nights of entertainment.
Or if you're looking on your own, look at steam reviews.
Steam reviews are because it's like users.
So they're like brutally honest.
It's brutally honest.
And it also shows how many fucking hours they have played of this game to leave the review.
Okay.
So that way, at least it's like somebody that's bitching about the game and hasn't even bought
the game.
I wouldn't go by that review.
You know what I mean?
Like somebody that spent a good 10 hours on one game.
It's like, you know what?
This shit sucks.
Like you at least know for 10 hours, he thought like 800 hours.
Like I don't like this game at all.
Like 800 hours.
And you still quit playing.
You thought it was going to get better.
I bring you up to the first one.
But you know what I mean?
Like at least look at something that you can at least trust reviews.
Right.
At least steam for the most part also doesn't have paid to review stuff.
So it's like just people playing the games.
Like I don't know how I get tired of all these gaming magazines at this point though, because
they will I so much and they can't even get past the first level.
Can't get past the tutorial.
That was the 100% tutorial.
All you had to do was hold the button down a little bit harder.
Yeah.
He couldn't jump.
Yeah.
Weird.
All right.
To avoid and Kareem Hickad's curse, Cersei reduced Wonder Woman to clay rather than kill
her and convinced that she had finally defeated her left for new Olympus to create recreate
the entire universe for decade through Diana's physical, though Diana's physical body was
destroyed for eternal spirit remained guided by the Phantom Stranger, the specter and dead
man.
Her spirit languished inside Gaia's womb.
Superman meanwhile led the charge against new Olympus itself, where the confused Greek
and Roman pantheons were still committed to destroying each other.
Ares, having been told of Cersei's manipulations by his daughter's Harmonia, who had paid with
her life to get the information to him, appeared with the other pantheons war gods and declared
the war at an end.
Okay.
It was done.
You're all done.
Yeah.
But you got Ares got Mars and the other ones to declare the war was over with.
Undeterred, Cersei called on Hecate to bring forth several dead heroes from the realm of
Hades and sent them against the heroes.
As the battle against the undead heroes raged, the son of Vulcan and Lobo, following a plan
devised by the wizard Shazam, and not the not the character Shazam, but the actual wizard
Shazam, were together to free Troia, who had been held prisoner on Olympus since before
the Bill War had begun.
So what do you call it?
Wonder Girl.
Okay.
Troia.
Oh yeah, the chick with like the black and like the stars.
Yeah.
Cersei was transported back to the tomb of Cronus, where she found both Troia and the
resurrected Wonder Woman.
They fought upon the body of Cronus while on Thaemiscara.
The phantom stranger collected representatives of the various pantheons that Cersei had deceived.
Using Troia as a conduit, those pantheons appealed to Cronus to strip Cersei of Hecate's
power and as Hecate herself attempted to destroy Wonder Woman, Cronus took her life also.
Damn.
Call blood.
Yeah.
The greed gods left to join Cronus and the other titans of myth, leaving new Olympus
to the Roman gods.
The Amazons of Thaemiscara mourn their fallen comrades and celebrated the return of Wonder
Woman as new Olympus left the skies of earth and life returned back to normal.
Nice.
So this entire story took place within the War of the Gods number one took place also
in Wonder Woman volume two number 58 Superman the man of steel number three Hawk World volume
two number 15 Starman number 38 Legion 31 Hawk and Dove volume three number 28 Captain Adam
volume two number 56 Dr. Fate volume two number 32 The Flash volume two number 55 Wonder Woman
volume two number 59 Dr. Fate volume two number 33 War of the Gods number two took place in
Justice League Europe number 31 Batman number 470 Hawk World volume two number 16 Animal
Man number 40 Captain Adam volume 257 Wonder Woman volume two number 60 So continuing on
basically from the first one Suicide Squad number 58 War of the Gods three took place
and the Demon volume three number 17 New Titans number 81 Wonder Woman volume two number 61
and then War of the Gods number four its own.
Okay.
So took place in a few.
You know the crazy thing about like people like hear the number right?
Oh issue number 25 well that's not that many.
Right.
They don't think about like these are like two years worth of issues like if you have
a 30 issue run.
Yeah.
That's like more than three years.
Yeah.
Or like around there.
So when you get up to Batman number.
That's been going on like god dang 1934.
Yeah Batman number 470.
Yeah.
So it's like it doesn't seem like 80s doesn't seem like a lot.
Right.
But when it's once a month once a month for 12 years or 12 months for like all these years.
Yeah.
That's why that's why people like they get mad like there's always like the renumbering
like oh they're going back to issue one.
Yeah.
Because you know.
Well what I hate too is that there's these whole sets right here.
Like you have volumes sections right different like where they kind of restarted different
series but it's still high numbers within the series.
But you had Batman like 470 at this point.
This is 1991.
As soon as you come around to the late 90s early 2000s and then whenever they start doing
like final crisis and all that kind of stuff mostly in like the 2010s ish they started
having so many revamps of number ones number ones number ones because they always knew
that people that collect comics and everything they always want that first issue of it.
So then they try to take advantage of it by always making a new number one every couple
of years.
And like the local famous new 52.
It's stupid.
I at least in my opinion I liked whenever they had like 470 because it means that okay
if this happened in 470 or at least part of this big war of the gods series or mini arc
basically if there's 470 Batman issues before this it means I can go back and read canonical
or canonically through 470 Batman issues and they're gonna all have something to do with
each other.
You can't do that now.
You go back and it's like okay if like if I was trying to explain you understand but
if I was trying to go back and explain somebody that's just gotten into comic books and they
just started reading a new Superman series right.
You go into it and it's like okay I thought Batman did this you know like just because
over things that you hear over time.
Yeah.
And like memes and stuff like that but in the news this new series that's like you know
four issues in none of that ever happened.
So they are revamped like the whole history is the craziest part.
Yeah and trying to go back and explain to somebody new to comic books okay well if you
read this set and then there was the revamp here and then there was this crisis before
that then you go back to this and then read that those two series.
Oh is that like.
Then you go back.
Is that that one meme where it's like someone asked how to read comics like you gotta read
this issue like read Superman and you gotta read this issue that issue forget that issue
and I'm like how do I read Manga like just start at chapter one.
Yeah yes yes and that is something that irritated me because like I said even though this series
took place this little mini series it doesn't have any canonical value at all now.
Ouch.
This means nothing.
You know which one surprised me was Animal Man issue 40.
Yeah.
That's like that's three and a half years.
Yeah.
Okay.
But it made it.
That's what I'm saying even if it was a series that didn't last for very like even for example
um Hawkworld.
Hawkworld volume two.
Number 16.
Wow volume two already.
It's a year and four months.
Yeah but like they even if they did.
That's like my dream like if I remember a comic book series if for Marvel or DC right
I'm like I need a contextual guarantee that I can make it to 100.
Issue 100.
It'll be 10 years from now but yeah it's in my contract.
Yes.
Because I just want to I want to hit 100.
Well it just irritates me though because a lot of the new series are not like this.
They will immediately recycle to a number one.
Well on top of that too like my example with the volumes right.
Okay they consider it as a volume with number whatever because they restarted the number
one issue on it.
But it still ties into volume one.
It was just like a few years ago.
Like the internal uh counting yeah.
Like they restarted the the counting of the books but like for different volumes.
I think like they did for a while they were doing like where it would be number one it
would be the new issue for this volume.
And then like in brackets it'd be like actually issue 809.
Right right.
They did that for a while.
They quit doing that.
And it irritates me because like I said you get it like that is why I think personally
people do pay attention more to manga now and not western comic books anymore.
Because when you restarted every couple of fucking years.
Yeah.
Like it's hard to explain to somebody how to read the comic books.
Or if you really like something and like it only lasts for like like six issues you're
like man fuck.
Or if it lasts for six issues or even in the new ones like you followed from the newest
step of the newest edition of one and you followed it for whatever it went to like six
seven issues.
And that's like you know what I want to go back I want to read some of the old Batman
comics.
Has no connection to the new ship.
Not unless you're not unless you're willing to do it to divest a hell of a lot of time
and research into okay how did it get to this point.
Because you can go all the way back to 19 what 39 or 1940 when Batman first came out.
You can follow it all the way through.
Like there's a few things of resets here and there.
But generally it was pretty easy to follow all the way through the 90s.
Then you get into the late 2010s like when the new 52 and stuff like that started coming
out and it just lost everybody.
Or even people that I know followed comic books it's like I give up I don't get it no
matter what.
What if that is what happened when finally broke the camel's back.
I think so.
I mean like because then they didn't know if it's in the freaking marvel like Marvel
now.
Yes.
Like Marvel read something like what is Marvel now what.
And having an offshoot like the Ultimates.
Like the Ultimates universe for Marvel.
At least that was like so like you guys can keep up with that at first.
At first.
And then it got wild.
Yes.
It was like Spider-Man 2099.
Oh yeah.
But it was an offshoot.
Like you weren't meant to have to read everything else beforehand to understand the 2099 set.
Like you could read it on its own.
But a lot of like any of these big things that happened in DC even in Marvel obviously
but I'm using DC as an example since we just talked about this.
But all the things that happened in War of the Gods had effects on like the death of
Superman like they all had something to do with each other.
And then after that it's like well this big huge final crisis took out everything and
now it's just reset.
Just so that way new readers don't have to follow everything from behind.
They can just read from here on.
But then they fuck it up again by redoing it two years later.
Like you know now that you mention that you know what Netflix did.
So.
So okay.
I would have basically said that after the Wano Saga which was that big fucking long
like years upon years of stories for to liberate Wano and beat Kaido.
The next one was going to be called the Egghead arc or Egghead Island arc.
He said like all right now I'm going to really get to start writing One Piece.
I'm like what do you mean now you're going to start writing the real One Piece.
So they now simulcast the new episodes of One Piece on Netflix with Crunchyroll.
So you don't need Crunchyroll to follow the new episodes of One Piece because they're
now on Netflix.
Except in the original content ends at this one called the Marrenfold incident.
And it's supposed to be a time skip from that episode to the next episode a two year time
skip.
New people that are just finishing Marrenfold and are now getting to Egghead Island are
like yo what the fuck happened.
Like they're completely there's like they're missing like 500 episodes.
But like because they thought oh so that I see what you mean like you're missing something.
Yeah.
Like Netflix is missing like 460 episodes.
And like if you just jump if you if you like because you watched the live action right.
Right.
Like let me watch the new episodes of One Piece or let me catch up to the old season
and they catch up to the new episodes.
They're so far behind.
It's just fucking fighting me.
They kind of did that same thing with Crunchyroll.
Since there remember Blue Exorcist that we talked about a long time ago.
They obviously have seasons one two and three.
Right.
So it threw a lot of people off because season two takes place within season one technically.
The Kyoto arc.
It does.
It takes place in the like before the last few episodes like episode 13 14 I think or
16.
I can't remember but it's like in the second half of season one within a couple of episodes
between them is where season two technically takes place.
So people that are watching like a concurrent thing.
Yes.
So whenever people were watching when you finish season one because season one finished
all the way through then they were yet released the Kyoto arc for Blue Exorcist.
But a lot of people were trying to figure out okay that doesn't make sense because how
the hell do they not know about what happened in season one and season two.
Like things that happened in season one.
It's like how the fuck are we dealing with like shouldn't they already have that ability
and how and obviously season three just released.
But because it's a continuation of literal at the end of season one.
Season three is like the prequel to season one and two.
I'm like what the fuck is going on.
No.
No season three is like the literal beginning of where season one ends.
Oh so season two is not even season two.
That's like season one and then season one point five basically.
Kind of or season season one a and season one B.
Not even that.
Because you'd have to take like within season one you'd have to take off the last like three
or four episodes insert season two put those last three episodes at the end of season two
and then continue on to season three.
What the fuck did they do that for.
I don't know.
You know what I don't believe the manga was written that way.
Weird.
You know what else hurts me is fucking case closed.
The detective Conan thing.
Yeah.
It's like episode 179 and then crunchy roll then it jumps like 741.
Where the fuck are the rest of the episodes.
They still haven't fucking brought them on there.
But in general though manga and anime I believe even with these like random things it's still
better than trying to explain somebody to somebody about the comic book sets.
Just goes to show you like these little these big like world building series and stuff.
Yeah.
They have a really bad limitation.
Well at least with manga if it's missing a set it's just missing a set.
Like you can at least reinsert that same set and it makes sense.
Yeah.
This shit.
It's just it's like DC and Marvel are too fucking big.
There's too much history.
There's a lot of history.
It's just like impossible now.
Yeah.
Yeah at this point.
Like I got to live in the real world.
I can't live in this world too.
Yeah.
That's why I said like that's why I tried to pull up a couple of the older ones from
like the 90s because we've done zero hour.
We've done the day of vengeance.
My favorite.
And that was in the early 2000s or at least I believe in the rail.
Williamson wasn't it?
It was before the new 52 basically.
So that's all I remember is before the new 52.
But we had that and then this right here the War of the Gods.
I don't know.
They just for me there may have been multiverse things before this and a little bit after
this but nowhere near to the complexity that we have now.
Like I can at least give you hey this took place within these comics.
Okay.
Easy to follow.
Now it's like well you need the history like try to follow the specter.
Oh my god.
Like that convoluted huh?
Because they took away his powers now.
Like now he's back to like 1940s level of power like what the fuck happened here?
Like at one point he was fighting and like basically hand wrestling the anti-monitor
at the beginning of creation.
And now we don't have that.
Like he's way de-powered.
Huh.
And he had always been extremely powerful.
And now like you know how they retconned Superman from blowing away solar systems.
Like the specter was never retconned to that level of like low of abilities.
And now he is.
Well.
It's like what happened here?
They got a plan who knows.
Yeah because Superman was like I remember like he was so powerful he was just like moving
planets.
Yeah.
They had to take that off a little bit.
Like hold on.
Pulling planets with chains.
Yeah he was spinning so fast he could turn time back.
Yeah.
But that is all I've got on a recap for today and I'll try to find another good set.
That shit hurts my head.
Did you at least follow that though?
That so far yeah.
It's not the rest of the convolution.
Yeah.
You see it gives you a migraine just thinking about it.
I want to have to read every issue of Marvel to figure out Marvel.
Yeah.
You know they have a guy in their offices like some guy like deep in the bowels of their
offices like with like just like just notebooks and journals everywhere.
That knows every bit of like a story for their like their series or for their universe.
Yeah.
But the guy that knows everything.
So that actually happened in issue 117 in 1972.
So that was issue 80 in 1993.
Spider-Man.
He just knows everything.
They just have that one guy.
Well like I can follow most of it.
Don't get me wrong I have followed like for characters that I like I can follow but I
don't know like if you wanted to get into a new character just fuck it.
You might as well just pick an indie series.
Yeah indie like I said that isom series that's from the Riververse.
Like that started off and he's already said that his there they follow a Bible for their
universe like it's not going no they're sticking to the story Bible and that's it.
That's smart to do.
And he said there will never be multiverses ever.
He said somebody dies they die.
Let's just wait us.
We're not doing a multiverse.
Hey we brought this person in from another multiverse.
It's stupid as shit you've ever seen.
But anything else dad before we head on to the next.
Am I reading Hellboy instead.
Although that itself has gotten a little bit convoluted as well.
Not as bad though I don't think.
I mean you can you can collect all of Hellboy.
Right.
But you can't collect all of Marvel and DC.
No I don't know if you could to be honest.
I don't know how hard it would be to find every book.
For DC yes for Marvel I think I've actually heard somebody.
Oh really.
Yeah some guy some some comic book company some store had every issue of like Marvel
from like the inception of like the original Fantastic Four until like 2009 or something.
Oh really.
Like they had the whole like for a book buy of one hundred thousand dollars.
So like there you go.
Yeah but so they include the oldest.
I think it's supposed to say everything like it was like the most complete set.
Oh really.
So they would have to be like like off stage something like not like the pristine pristine
you know what I mean.
Right.
But just enough to passable.
Yeah that'd be kind of cool.
I don't know it's a lot.
I don't know if I'd ever read them all.
That's a lot.
I think it said like thirty thousand issues.
Yeah so I'm like I don't know.
That's a lot.
I can't read all that.
You'll just die while you read me.
And some of the stories just suck to begin with.
I got to watch porn at some time.
I need to I need to devote myself.
I need the vat.
I need the fab.
I need a fat like the wind.
All right.
Let's go ahead and get into some red at them.
All right.
We have some more retail hell for you today.
OK.
So the first one is by just a skate rat.
Internet went down this morning in that event.
We have to do cash only because the debit machines obviously will not function correctly.
Our store put three bright highlighter yellow signs in the front of the store before you
walk in one on the first shelf whenever first shelf whenever you walk in and then directly
taped onto the debit machine covering the screens and buttons.
Man walks in for a while ignores our associates greeting him and browses for a bit.
Grabbing four items.
I tell him it's total of ninety one forty one please.
What the fuck did he get four items.
What the fuck story is this.
Four items for ninety one ninety four forty one.
Wait a minute man.
That's a real story right there.
None of the cash only shit.
What the fuck did he buy.
Does that not fucking also surprise you.
That's a lot of fucking money.
Well whenever I first read it I thought it said nine dollars and forty one cents.
Ninety what though.
Ninety four forty one.
He looks down at the debit machine covered by bright yellow paper saying cash only sorry
lifts the piece of paper and begins to smack his bar gives his crank.
We got a dumb one today.
I tell him dude the Internet is down we can't do card right now.
That's me.
Why is this.
Tell me why this MF rolls his eyes at me.
Huffs in a breath and says that's fucking stupid.
Stu how is that stupid.
You should really tell people that because I don't have any cash on me.
And then he leaves.
I am going insane.
That is that that's just such an ignorant human being.
You if you see signs everywhere that saying like beware of deer.
And then you get a deer hits your fucking car.
But what the fuck is this shit.
Next one is by odd girl five seven one nine.
Oh girl.
That's it of all.
This person puts I a thirty three year old female.
I don't know what the what this is.
It has to do with anything but sure.
Hopefully it's legal.
It's not that it will retail hell.
So hopefully it's legal.
It's not today I fucked up.
Today I fucked up.
I had a customer.
I had this annoying ass lady pitch.
It's a whole fit.
I'll pitch a whole fit today.
I feel like pissed.
I was going to say pitch a pitch like a bitch asshole or something.
This old dirty fuck your bitch.
I love that's why it started that way.
I had this annoying ass lady pitch a whole fit today simply because whenever I asked
her if she was a part of our stores reward program.
And if she was and if she was if I could put her number in or give me the barcode to scan
if she wasn't a part of it and she could hit skip.
She looks at me says no I'm not but give me your phone number so I can use your discount.
No ma'am.
I'm not giving you my I accidentally left out loud and told her no.
She goes what do you mean no.
Your job is to help the customer.
I did I did but me allowing you to use my number isn't a part of my job description.
Told her she can gladly sign up because it's free.
She got pissed for some reason and wanted to speak to my manager.
I let the lady tell my manager what the issue was.
He cut her off and he was just like no a thousand times no.
I walked away.
She shut up paid for her items said some rude shit and left.
I wish you would have said what the root show was.
I wish you didn't say it.
You're a cut and she walks out.
Next one is by TBM Christopher.
This person pits.
It's not charming whenever an older customer tells me they don't do computers after I say
a product is only available by online order.
Figure it out or badger your grandkids into doing it for you.
I have zero control of what we stock in the store.
I promise they make it very easy to spend your money online.
Pretty much like an old man.
The best I can do is Amazon.
After that I can't do nothing.
Now I will say there are some websites that have itty bitty little things on them to pull
down like drop boxes.
It is annoying.
It's very annoying.
It depends on how bad they want to defraud you of money.
If they're janky or not.
Ready next person.
The next one is by I am the punch.
I'm sure we've all been told this excuse by corporate.
We need to treat all customers with respect.
And if they're in a bad mood, we still need to treat them respectfully regardless of how
short they're being with us.
But why isn't this a thing?
Because the opposite of this saying is also true.
They have no clue what an employee is going through on a given day.
Yet they're still choosing to make yours worse.
It's such a toxic mindset to have.
No kidding man.
How come we learn a lot of things like shit?
But if we say one fucking word, I'm going to call it corporate.
Always.
Like you're the one being an asshole.
Next one is by Baron Von Kieser.
Nice.
The person posts.
Those were the exact words a fully grown man had said to me yesterday which was I don't
have enough to pay.
What was he buying?
Could it be food, medical supplies, personal care items?
Nope.
Condoms?
No.
It's a gift card.
So what the fuck?
That's a what's it called?
That's a not a like a need.
That's like an extravagance isn't it?
Yeah.
You don't need a fucking $300 Apple card.
No.
He used his debit card.
No shit.
His debit card had $11.23 on it.
Damn.
He tried to buy a $300 Apple gift card.
Wow.
After I told him that he's still old, what he's still old, he just gave me the deer in
the headlights look and then uttered those words.
I said sorry buddy.
He says I'll be back after I transfer some money.
Sure.
Sure you will.
He had done that before.
And wouldn't you know it, he never came back.
Weird.
How odd.
Next one is by Oni One.
I don't know why they...
Oni One Kenobi?
I guess so.
Oni One?
The O-N-I.
I guess it's probably Obi-Wan.
O-W-N-E-Y.
Oni One?
Hmm.
Dong?
I have seen it happen to my coworkers but never experienced it myself until recently.
I understand my coworkers' reaction now.
I was at the self-service checkout as per usual when something shitty happens.
This man was inevitably trying to scan three products through the machine and failing because
they don't know what a barcode is.
I showed them how to do it and then went over to another customer in need of assistance.
But as I was walking away the guy scanned something and for some reason thought setting
the product in the bagging area was optional.
So he didn't set it down.
He tried to scan the last item and the machine was playing the please set the item in the
bagging area.
Customers never actually figure out what the cryptic message means and always call me over
so I can set their item down in the bagging area for them.
I heard the message play and I was looking around.
He had his hand up at me and snapped his finger repeatedly as I approached him.
It instantly made me incredibly angry and I just said sternly don't ever snap your fingers
at me.
The exact reaction I've seen my coworkers have.
It's honestly so fucking rude.
Yeah it is.
I've had customers cough to get my attention but for some reason him snapping his fingers
was just so enraging.
There is something like just like they're like excuse me I need your attention.
That was a weird thing though by the way the whole like you're putting it in the bagging
area.
Yeah.
They always just freeze up the whole fucking self checkout.
Yeah.
Like if I just want to fucking sit on the floor or something.
But I will give the devils after me the advocate side of this.
Open up regular registers.
Well they don't want to.
Exactly.
They want to make everything streamlined sort of.
Sure.
Streamlining cost effective.
Cost effective probably more so.
But okay like the same thing goes with the Walmart.
You know where people were putting organic produce through the cell scan thing but putting
it as regular produce.
You can't get mad at people for doing it whenever you're letting them scan their own shit.
You can't get mad at me if I'm trying to figure out what kind of apples these are.
Exactly.
Like these are your fucking subsets of apples.
Exactly.
What the fuck is a galactic crisp?
Do you mean honey crisp?
Because that's all this shit shows up on here.
That's all I'm seeing.
I don't see galactic.
I'm dead serious.
I'm like what the fuck is galactic crisp?
You have to mean honey crisp right?
And the galactic is probably like their fucking brand name.
Maybe.
But I'm like all I see is honey crisp.
That's all I'm fucking paying.
That's what I'm putting in there.
We're good.
But you know what I mean like you can't complain about people fucking up self checkout whenever
they're not trained to use self checkout.
I once had them fucking show me a recording of me because they said I didn't scan the
eggs and I'm like and then they scanned it right?
And right underneath what they scanned was the exact same item description.
I'm like you son of a you see it right there you sexy shit.
Because you went eggs were expensive.
Yeah yeah.
They were like fucking gold.
They said I didn't fucking scan the eggs.
And then they say oh oh.
And then they took the fucking second one off.
Exactly.
I want to just give me the other ones for free.
You're so ridiculous.
Next one is by Kiwi Moment.
This person puts.
Like I'll have people giving me a hundred dollars for a six dollars total.
Motherfuckers.
But when someone needs an eighteen hundred dollar money order they pay in all twenties.
And I'll have to stand there for way too long getting a huge line while I make absolutely
sure all the money is there.
Maybe you gotta check that money.
Why can't people use hundreds when it matters?
I wouldn't use 20s unless they were trying to hide some fake ones in there.
Is the only thing I can think of.
Or they got it from an ATM and an ATM only puts out 20s.
Not true.
I got five the other day.
What fucking ATM did you get?
One at the Walmart.
Still?
Yeah they gave me fives.
Seriously?
They gave me a hundred dollars with the fives.
I'm like you sons of bitches.
I have never gotten fives out of an ATM.
Exactly.
I was like what is this?
Ever.
You ever seen a hundred dollars with the fives?
No.
I was like what is this?
It's a stack.
They're ballin.
No I was not.
It was fives.
I tried to get the maximum and it said like we can't give you the maximum we're low on
money so I was like what?
So I just outed a hundred bucks.
So I thought I'd get five fucking 20s.
I got a fucking hundred dollars with the fives.
I don't know why.
I've never seen that before in my fucking life.
I've never seen that ever.
They must have like run out of money and then they just supplemented whatever they could
get from the bank.
I don't know what the fuck.
That is crazy.
I have never gotten fives out of an ATM.
I'm glad.
I'm glad it didn't give me what I actually wanted because that would have been a lot
of fives.
Like $400 worth of fives.
Just five literally.
Like the time that my cousin, we were at the mall and he was like we were trying to get
the vending machine and I was like he's like whatever happened right?
I was like why don't you just fucking I'll give you the dollar.
Just get the fucking change back.
He was trying to put a quarter or some shit in.
Yeah.
And he hit the fucking button for like the refund and it gave him like a dollar fifty
in nickels and that shit was shooting out for like a minute.
He's like oh my god.
Oh my god.
A fucking handful of nickels.
I think what I think was when we traded like I gave him a dollar back for like I'll give
me the change in there and like I'll give you this dollar and he's just fucking a pile
of nickels in his hand.
Well think about it.
Twenty nickels for a one dollar bill.
And a dollar fifty or a dollar seventy five nowadays and he's just fucking knocking nickels
out.
I would've been like why don't you just give us the change we gave you from the beginning.
The actual quarter seventy five.
No I've never seen an eighteen five's ever.
I have.
Now you have.
The weirdest shit I've ever seen.
You probably won't ever see it again.
It was one of those once in a lifetime moment things.
Maybe I hope so.
I mean it felt like a bank won't even give you five some time.
No kidding.
So we either have hundreds or we have pennies which one you want.
I don't want either.
Maybe the most absurd options.
They really do.
We give you the hundred or have these half quarters.
What the fuck do you mean half quarters.
Like a thousand dollars and two dollar bills.
All right next one is by financial grade 4080.
Spurs and Pits.
Long ago the sports department that I worked at.
I'm sorry I didn't know what the star wars episode.
Long ago in a light sea borough or away.
Long ago the sports department that I worked at received a bunch of no name pocket knives
from China.
They were small folding knives for with wood and brass handles and plain unlabeled boxes.
We sold them for one dollar.
This drove the bargain hunters nuts.
One day on one hand they did not want to waste even a dollar on a piece of junk.
On the other hand they could not bear to miss out on the great bargain if this is a quality
knife.
That is true.
You got to roll that dice.
People would stare intently at the knife for 10 minutes or more.
On the other hand they could not bear to miss out on a great bargain if it was a quality
knife.
People would stare intently at the knife for 10 minutes or more.
Open and close it repeatedly.
Really stress over the decision to spend one dollar.
I had to waste.
If I had to waste spend more time selling these knives than I did on expensive wares.
The customer who makes these knives.
Me people in China.
Customer is like what kind of people in China is a good knife.
Me it's a dollar.
Helps make the best.
Customer what kind of steel is this.
Me it's one dollar.
Oh yeah I would have gone off I would have gone off kilter be like it's tang knife from
the mountains of the Himalayas.
The metals of the metal from Astor.
We have a picture one for this one.
A picture.
They took a picture of.
Is this some big tennis.
This is it says today's mail.
It says a customer.
This is a customer that wrote this.
Customer service or store manager.
I am writing to you about ladies Nike sports bra my ex fiance purchased at your store back
on June of 2022.
I realized you have a strict return policy.
The item was washed once and hair dried as I do all my clothing with the exception of
jeans and towels.
As you can see the material at the bottom of the elastic band unraveled.
This did not catch on my washing machine component or on a piece of equipment at the gym.
I am 46 years old and my athletic wear lasts for decades due to the handling of the garments
to the fact that I don't work out.
I consider them an investment.
Impeccable.
Please let me know if there's anything you can do.
I wore the top to a hot Pilates Inferno class at hop room yoga one.
Hop Pilates Inferno class.
They're 150 degrees.
All these women farting.
And that was that was all the wear I had received from this high end designer $40 sports bra.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yes, I am just now carving out some time to deal with this piece of clothing.
And they sent him the bra back for a return.
Well, what did they say?
This person just puts the thing on their say.
Are you kidding me?
Wow.
What was wrong with the bra?
Apparently the elastic at the bottom started coming off.
After her pop Pilates.
Can just cut it a little.
That's what I would do as a normal.
Just cut the thing and it looks better.
But her stuff was supposed to lie.
And it's got like a white mark on it too from the sweat.
Oh, oh, that doesn't work.
Alrighty and last one for today is why yes, I am a nerd.
It's a backstory.
And of course, you know, they put their age.
A 92 year old man.
I a 19 year old male work at a thrift store where there's little to no other cashiers.
So usually it's only one person working on Sundays.
We aren't open long on Sunday.
So it's not usually a hard shift.
About six hours.
About an hour in, I needed to go to the bathroom.
So I called for my manager so she could cover for me.
I think a ship him.
What does he say to her?
I got to dump this out.
Usually I worked with a different manager on Sundays and he's a pretty good guy.
Even though he looks really intimidating.
But the manager I worked with today, 30s male, had a habit of not being reliable and not
doing his job.
EG now putting a time off.
I asked for a month in advance on the calendar and causing problems later on.
Well, EG, I never, what is EG?
I know it's supposed to be example, but you know, what's the G?
Ever thought about it?
Well, cause there's no G in examples.
Example.
Yeah, like what the fuck is the G for?
I guess examples given.
I think so, I think that is what it is.
Is it how my brain works?
I can't let the shit go.
You finally figured it out.
I could have just got my mouth shit figured out.
But me talking it out made me figure it out.
Also not safe for work jokes that only stopped after threatening to go to HR about it.
Always taking calls on the sales floor, et cetera.
So any data, et cetera.
You ever seen the movie Split?
In the title he put it, yes, why I am a nerd.
So I'm real confused as to what anything has to do with him needing to take a shit.
So when he came to answer the intercom, whenever I told him I needed to go to the bathroom,
he made it very clear he was not happy about it.
I tried to go as fast as I could.
It took about five minutes.
And when I came back, he was on another of his phone calls and again told me he didn't
want to let me go to the bathroom and said I'd need a doctor's note to go or something.
Fuck that.
I'll get HR right now.
I hate this job, but I want to find a better one before I quit.
I'll be damned if you don't let me go to the bathroom.
That's like a human rights violation.
And then the response of the comment, best case scenario that I would love to see happen.
You hey doc, my boss is in a doctor's note in order to go to the bathroom.
Can you write me one?
Doc but you don't have any injury or gastrointestinal issues.
You I know.
I meant I needed a doctor's note or else I'm not allowed to use the bathroom at all.
Doctor after a sudden silence.
I think we have an opening for records clerk position.
Might you be interested in filling out an application?
Me yes.
Like absolutely.
That was the last one for today though.
We would love to be a nerd.
I don't know.
I'm confused.
In this episode I have left you confused.
It's like yeah shit I'm a nerd.
Everyone thinks I'm shit.
I think it was because he uses the word EG and then etc.
Maybe etc etc etc etc.
I said like that because of the movie Split.
If you're watching you know exactly what I mean.
Anything else to add before we head out tonight?
I gotta take a shit too.
What are you guys going to do next week?
I'm going to eat a cheeseburger.
See ya'
