Happy new year! Woooo!
My eye.
It's not even a year of Pocket Cast, but it's a new year! Woo!
We're getting close though... getting close. We're like two or three episodes away from...
Two at our current rate of consistency.
No, we're gonna... we're getting back on the great new year.
on the green back on it we were never off well yeah yeah we were off we were
just off in fact yeah we were just off and then we were off again because this
week we are doing a episode that's not about the game that we played because I
didn't play it yeah I played it a little I played it through the tutorial oh
that's good and then I how'd that go I decided I was like you know what you can
use L or R on your on your DS yes so the L button on my DS oh that's right
doesn't work yeah so I was like hell yeah I'm gonna play this on my DS
because DS games look way better on the DS than the 3DS but you need that L
button yeah it's pretty important for a lot of things it is pretty important so
they do the same thing on oh oh yes the game that we were supposed to cover
yeah that one so I popped it into my DS and then realized that neither L or R
work oh so that's an unfortunate series time to lay the rest by over 15 year old
that's your OG DS that's my OG DS Jesus Christ yeah that's insane dude yeah I've
had mine since you gave it to me about a year a year I got you for Christmas
that's right yeah and then you were like hey man you won't do this podcast with me
yeah yeah maybe cheeky dog dude now it's a now it's Christmas a year later yeah
finally figuring out the long con yeah it was actually pretty short con it's so
far it's been oh yeah there was like no con to it you just bought me a DS and I
was like hell yeah dude yeah also also we're doing a podcast yeah I should have
seen it coming it's worth noting that I'm rocking the one and only Pocketcast
official merch yeah it's awesome yeah it's none of you guys can see it
obviously because you don't have eyes but what I'm wearing I'll describe to you
in detail is a large purple hoodie with the Pocketcast logo on it you can very
easily visualize it yeah no I'm pretty good at describing I've been I've been
called an apt describer on a few different occasions so just I don't mean
to like toot my tooter too much but I feel like you could have chosen a better
word from describer I don't know what that word it's an excellent description
word for describing I should also note that I can't claim responsibility for
this hoodie at all it was a Christmas gift from Mike and Lexi so shout out
yeah it was also shout out because it was also a Christmas gift to me what is
it getting to see it oh getting to see yeah the experience the experience yeah
like you open the door and you're coming up and just being like hey what the fuck
is I legit opened it like two or three hours ago and then I was like oh dude
cuz my first I was like dude I gotta call Fletcher I was gonna FaceTime
your ass and everything and then I was like or I just wear it and don't say shit
he just comes over and like oh what are you wearing so well yeah it just is so
such a weird thing because I see that image often enough sure you know forget
that's not where I'm supposed to see it yeah exactly where I was just like what
like it took my brain a second yeah it was a it really threw me off I love it
it looks really cool it's great it's really fun to see that image so large
it does actually I've never scaled it up so I just yeah I've never considered it
honestly yeah very short-sighted individual that I am fuck it works for
the yeah check that task off the list I'm a minimum effort kind of guy that is an AI image it is
that's a cool it's a cool it's a cool one dude I like it compared to all the
other images I've tried to get AI to come up with that is what's a good one
the best one yeah shout out AI shout out AI I remember to which one it was that
you made that made it but I don't remember who I used yeah they were even
able to get rid of the watermark that is supposed to be on there oh yeah did I
trim this shit off I don't think we're supposed to but no I don't think we did
though I don't think like I think on the podcast oh like on like on the spot if I
pay yeah they got everything it's still on there on there beautiful yeah
beautiful guys great present yeah awesome thanks Mike thanks Lexi bitch and gift
mad love mad love mad love part of the reason that we didn't do the part of the
reason we're not doing the episode that we were supposed to be doing is because
of Christmas and what happens thing fucking you get right now it's crazy
because Thanksgiving sales for video games talking like online gaming yeah
no I never for once assumed that we moved outside of the scope of video
games so you've got the October Thanksgiving ish sale right like the
it's not even a false sale it's the Black Friday but it's not a false sale
false and then you've got the Christmas sale that's just like hey it's
Christmas you probably just got something right switch PS5 buy some shit
computer whatever yeah and then now they're just continuing it into the new
year's sale yeah dude it's like a solid like six weeks of just I'm out I can't
I'm done I've got some points I think just from buying so many fucking random
cheap games like dude I have I haven't I haven't copped like anything I sold so
many skins and so many like just for something that's the market was marked
up really yeah and I was able to liquidated all of your CSC skins and shit
not all of them but okay good amount you went through a lot of the like excess
ones that I had yeah and it built up it really did especially the stickers
that's so great like people out there collecting them dude
wild to me yeah unpaid money yeah dude honestly I hate the stickers they just
clutter up my steam notification people that's you know when you see of
notifications on your phone you have to clear them out it's kind of like that
with having all those gift cards it's just it's always been at the back of my
mind like I just want to clear this bullshit yeah I know if there's a
setting to just toggle I don't want this click that shit pretty hard all right
select all sell all fuck yeah no shit bulk just in bulk anything yeah so that
the lowest denominator that it's dude that's the I was gonna say you can do
that shit with the runescape GE but that's actually not true because you can
only sell multiples of the same item in bulk can't just like select a bunch of
items and sell them but it's also a lot easier to sell shit in runescape shout
runescape it is but you also can't then buy video games with that like what a
fucking stupid motivator CS2 came out and I don't know if I just got a really
rare box I forget what you call them the crates the crate yeah but I sold it for
twenty-some dollars shit oh case case for CS yeah case whatever all the same
20 bucks dude you remember what case it was no but it was one that I know I'd
had before like it wasn't anything crazy people just going on crazy
opening just went crazy when CS2 came out here do you hear about that shit
we're like because of some of the like engine changes between CS go and CS2 it
just like completely nuked the value of some of like the most insanely expensive
skins out there like what happened you know what happened for that reason so
there were I'm sure there were a few different scenarios that were
different things applied but the one or a couple that I remember specifically it
was like an it was like a fat a case skin and it had I don't know I get why
and how some skins are more valuable than others that makes sense to me right
stickers I assume follow the same principle but otherwise I don't really
understand that I think the stickers look absolute dogshit yeah I do not think
they look good yeah I'm with you I don't care how cool the sticker is don't put
it on the fucking skin of the gun like I don't like that at all but if I
remember right I think there was a couple where there's some like really
expensive stickers on this insane gun and like because of the stickers it's a
$80,000 skin you know some crazy right like that and then it was either like
the stat track on the new like the engine rework between the two games or
the way that they render the stickers or something it basically like there was
a little covered up well shit was covered up and I couldn't for the life
of me tell you what it was but I think it was ultimately like really expensive
stickers are just covered up somehow or there's something like that and it was
just like wow that's awesome yeah anytime any more any market gets
crashed for something like any reason I'm stoked right yeah but that's even
funnier that's great dude that's awesome I just figured that some skins looked
worse for whatever reason they did I mean I haven't looked at a whole bunch
of them closely but there's definitely some pretty significant like differences
just in the way that the engine like handles color and other values that's
yeah it just changes some of that shit up pretty I think when I was talking about my
inventory I was saying stickers and what I meant was trading cards that might be
the case but I definitely knew you were talking about trading cards as was I so
yeah yeah if you as a listener did not know that sorry well you do now so
reflect on that I don't just have 30 pages of stickers yeah like I sold some
of my CS inventory on Steam and I bought a new house if you want to find out more
about stocks yeah hit up the tweet tweet Fletcher and take his four-day training
course you too can become a steam billionaire fifty dollars a day that's
it that's it no dude don't undercut yourself no guarantee fifty dollars a
day yeah per person yeah okay all right yeah all right so Fletcher selling out
fucking amphitheaters hey Fletcher selling out hey he's a fucking sellout
fuck that guy he's trash speaking of selling out we're gonna use the we had
talked about this earlier I just figured this out you know great time to bring it
up for everybody else because you know how I feel about segues we're gonna use
the proceeds from our patreon all of it to basically start up a merch line oh
yeah yeah so that'll be happening pretty immediately with all that patreon money
that we've been collecting over the year so shout out to all our anonymous
patrons I guess we'll have a website up eventually oh should we gonna do a
website too yeah I mean so that we can get the merch I mean just just email me
can we do a catalog and I can send you some pictures email back and forth it's
just like whatever hoodie we're wearing that day like this is what we're so
this is my clothes it's just things out of the closet just yeah pocket cast
very pocket cast merge these are my boxes that I've definitely been
stretching way too long Christmas Chris yeah dude I should have that's what
honestly that should be a new tradition for me or any man any person every
Christmas now get yourself nope nope what shutting it down why get some
boxers that's what I'm saying every year no what if you feel the need follow
sudden your boxes aren't feeling comfortable whether it's August or
December I'm fucking whatever just anytime that you're like I don't have
that more than once a year boxer money come on yes you do everyone most people
do like I know I get it I get that like not having not how do I say skipping a
coffee a day isn't gonna make you rich sure however skipping a coffee for three
days will buy you like six pairs of boxers I don't so my coffee every day
though well I'm sure there's something that you can skip right for like yeah I
can stop paying my mortgage I guess yeah stop paying your mortgage to buy boxers
just I'll just call the bank like hey so listen I'm gonna be a little late this
month there's no excuse I just I decided to prioritize some boxers I hope that's
okay I'm just saying I realized what I bought these new socks I don't remember
not too long ago and they were name-brand socks they were Dita's socks
I mean don't think I've ever bought like actual name-brand socks they were a
little expensive for the decent size amount of socks that I got scared me to
scare you but it's these socks are so fucking comfortable I look forward to
wearing these socks I will I will do laundry more often now just to have a
socks to slide your little flitsies in too. Yeah so I don't have to wear any of my other socks. Buy some fucking socks. Buy some underwear. Buy some silk boxers. Fucking do it.
because I've been thinking about getting one of those little hammock hangers you
know what I'm saying it doesn't look comfortable like a penis sleeve I don't
know I do you mean like they're like they're the briefs and then they have
like the bulge in front to hold your shit not even dude all right we're talking
literally talking about a sock for your penis why would you want to has like a
little spaghetti strap not not in okay let me clarify not not as a replacement
right but you're just wearing underneath just like a little like a mitten for
your penis support for if I mean hey does your penis needs no balls oh the
balls I thought you're talking about the hammock you said a hammock for the balls
no for the penis oh hammock hanger I it's a little sock for your cock a cock sock
out there you know some of these that's getting colder I'm just never that's
never a region that gets cold no not ever you don't get like a cold tip every
now and again no no frosted tips for Fletcher no man my fucking the head my
ears my neck you know the body parts that are on the outside of my clothes I
don't need I just okay I mean if you don't need it that's awesome my
products not for you it's fine take some tube socks I just need yours I'm not
that I'm not that guy okay I'm not I'm not an ankle guy I'm more like take a
pair of child's gloves cut the pinky finger off kind of guy no I think I think
we should add them to our merch lineup no I know you're gonna say no I was a
ball hammock though you'd put the logo on that no I might wear it though yeah I
would wear a ball just put like where else where's it gonna support them too
do you think like you get a like a ring or like you know like I go like a cock
ring basically I mean maybe it's not a cock ring but it's in like the shape
size so like it looks so all I can think of now it's got little rope strings
fishing line coming off the sides like a net and then it has a hammock that it
connects to on both of those fishing lines you're talking about a full
actual suspended hammock for your for your balls okay I'm listening now I'm
super sorry because I definitely had a different mental image going in and as I
kind of started to let you know so the only thing that I could think of that
came to mind was so think of a hot air balloon yes okay right so the basket
isn't tied directly to the balloon right the the wires that connect the two
actually run through that a circle choke yeah yeah and so all the tension
actually comes to that on both points right sure kind of keeps the balloon
clip anyway that's not what we're talking about that's what I was thinking
of like okay I'm thinking like I was like man that's just that just sounds
like a ball ring which I'm with you now yeah no that sounds unhealthy for an
extended period of time for sure for sure not not how you're supposed to play
that it's kind of a although I have been wondering lately about the prolonged
like extended use of a chastity cage for dude because I would just say that I
very recently came into a more intimate familiarity with some of the options
that are out there unrelated right and there's a good number of these things
that have like the tip of the cage is also like a sounding rod thing so it
gets clasped and locked down in front at the tip and what and it's got a little
rod protruding at the end no hundred percent no so it gets better I found one
that had I shit you not dude an inch and a half sounding rod and the entire cage
was wired up for electrical shock delivery one of which was on the tip of
the rod on the tip of the rock on the tip of the rod so I don't think
longevity is something that's probably in concern you know on that mind at that
point I mean perhaps I think it would have been a consideration at some point
though yes yeah I mean cuz I feel like that's not your first time if you go
straight to the dick for your first time who for whose consideration like a
specific individual though you mean like consideration of using it or
consideration of making it you're saying is all you have a user for sure yeah no
no I don't think so I think if you're I think using that kind of chastity belt
it's not a belt not belt sorry cage cage but it's okay I know yeah if you're
using that kind I have to assume that you're probably no longer using your dick
for primary dick purposes yeah other than being perhaps right yeah I think
this is the part or well Jack's just cut us he's like you guys are too
uneducated to have this conversation I was just gonna say I feel like this a
good point for me to say that I don't this extent exceeds my area of expertise
yeah it doesn't but seeing as how we're recording public I'm just saying I do
happen to actually know that it it is not necessarily the case for a cage that
does sound sure for just a cage in general a cage fire a cage I mostly
there yeah now a cage that has a built-in sounding bar that goes an inch
deep that fucking shocks you yeah
Jack I'm gonna need you to fuck off bro yeah you you can't be playing with that
dude we're trying to record a baller ass episode trying but then we've got
sounding going on I'm shaming you I'm sounding shaming you're sounding shaming
me don't don't do that why I'm not I'm not out here I'm not I don't know that
it's the scariest thing I had to put eyedrops in the other day yeah I dropped
in your dick hole way scarier let's again like full clarification this isn't
I mean if somebody just like walked up to me and slapped one of those bad boys
on me I would not reflect upon that situation with on the thawed with fun
thoughts I don't know if it was something I felt inclined to work towards
and you know slowly build up to I could see perhaps anything within reason being
an enjoyable experience so I feel like it's kind of a matter I'm defending this
too hard I sound like this is something I do actually
I don't and I have it dude it's so scary I think I think it's fascinating
that's not I mean okay yeah yeah I can say fascinating because people take
pleasure in that and that seems like the most painful thing I don't have any
experience in that yeah I um I don't have a I don't have a pronounced pain
kink yeah but like I'm a tough boy you could you could slap me around a little
bit if you wanted to yeah yeah yeah I can take a little bit of a boost but I'm
just saying like if the pervious old man in a trench coat walked up to me and
handed me a little remote fob and said every time you press this button it's
gonna electrocute me through a rod that's inserted into my p-hole and I'm
gonna like it I'm definitely gonna still press the
twice dude just how many times yeah you know it's gonna be a progressive series
of just kind of reflective consideration every time I click the button the first
one is out of curiosity for sure the second one is still out of curiosity I
think for sure like third one you're probably starting to laugh yeah this
fourth fifth six are really click you are die man like if he comes seven eight
nine wow is that is that a consideration of seven eight nine or is that like a
torturous seven eight nine I think it's so that way I'm still laughing and less
uncomfortable veteran in a trench coat is just a jack-o'-lantern just tossing
dollar bill clean yourself up it just sounds like how I imagine like dirt
bags and movies treating like hookers after they're done yeah so no but the
you're pathetic thing is either like it's funny I don't know because probably
that's this guy's king right so are you just like the homiest of homies but
can this dude up with the fantasy of this man's life so it's like okay I guess
either way it's okay you don't feel like you were suggestively implicit in this
man's sexcapades like I mean cuz like honestly like yeah but if you told me
that you did this the way that I would tell the story to literally anyone else
would be like so this one time Fletcher jerked off a homeless guy at the park
that's how I would tell that story there's no difference just because you
a little Bluetooth little 2.4
like no problem touching dick but homeless dick you know you don't want to
get like scabies on your hands I mean so are you touching the dick if it's not
homeless I mean no but that's not part of the scenario I'm just curious to see
where that goes Channing Tatum walks up in a trench coat and he's like every time
you push this button you touching it the button or the dick yeah the but I already
know you're pushing the button I'm pushing the button no the only yeah I'm
pushing the button for any Tatum walks up dude I'm smacking the fuck out of
anybody that comes up and is like this electrocutes me because your mom okay
not that that's fair outside like any stranger probably right comes up to me
and says this election it doesn't matter where it even electrocutes you at if
what if he walks up what's the cluts is a different story and that button doesn't
stop getting pushed dude yes that I just like take the button down and then crush it under my boot and then it's just like
rotten hell yeah yeah yeah sorry to bring that up actually I regretted it the second
second I was like yeah no but less the cluts absolutely I think it'd be
hilarious like yeah so you're making you're you're giving into someone's
really fucking weird kink and honestly probably inappropriate to to go up to a
stranger massively and like because even if you say no are you then playing into
their kink which then makes you a non consenting participant then it's fucked
up I don't know man I didn't go to college I never took psych but then you bring me a
shock collar basically inside your dick a penile shock collar fucking a I'm
gonna fuck it because you're getting off on it I'm getting off I'm just fucking
you up you know like a different kind of get off but we're both like getting
something out of the symbiotic relationship so okay so then here's here's a
follow-up then because understandably like we have this kind of schism right
it's it's it's sexual for one it's comedy for the other is this something
you have to go home and tell the old lady about that no it's also revengeful
right is it what I think what against your dad no no against this person doing
this very perverse act like in the public eye you are how dare you sir you
know what I'm gonna become that's what that'll teach you it's not the goal but
it's gonna happen you speak like it's an inevitability that's like as kink if
that's his like well he could get arrested first before he comes probably
not yeah he'll probably blow wads sirens yeah yeah this is exhibitionist freaks
I'm not gonna lie I did not expect you to lean into this one so hard I'm
leaning I'm aware we didn't play the game we've got anything to talk yeah
anything it's built up bro build up I need some release this doesn't lead
anywhere into any of my topics that I did list off it's kind of I feel like
well the discussion we had could be seen as a metaphorical far cry recount of
2023 that's how 2023 felt to me for the most for least the first half oh dirty
homeless man just showing up and absconding me and requiring that I be
implicit in his sexual gratification in a public space I think it a pretty
awesome 2023 I can't I don't really have too many major complaints
yeah that's good yeah like many years it's just another fucking year I've
never been a person that's like 2020 sucks moving on to 2021 that's never
been like my year isn't even real dude if I could man I'd go back to it I want
to go back to Kovac I fucking just enjoy the like just the yeah dude the like the
force get a full taste of that you did my as you're unemployed yeah that was
great dude I was talking to listen about this the other day I didn't I straight
up just like didn't leave the house at one point for like two months that's
why it's not awesome no god it was amazing I mean no no fantastic not
completely closed ecosystem people I'm sure great dude when I get a little sad
I'll just peek through the blinds like ah vitamin D yeah you were really
depressed I was super depressed the fucking blinds were all shut not just in
my tiny ass apartment they like because your cat was trying to get a little bit
of light into your apartment yeah like please anything so sad in here one of us
is gonna blow our brains man I wish I could do it again
guys I there's so many times where like I do I know it's a totally romanticized
thing and it's something that media does and maybe we do it in media what art
reflects life or whatever you say imitates imitates yeah because it is
the easiest thing I feel like to romanticize a depression huh especially
when you have a depression where you're able to be locked into a room oh yeah
when you like your scope of visibility is extremely limited so limited you're
locked into your apartment or where the fuck ever
I lived I was in the dark for two months it just like didn't turn the lights on
it was awesome I think of depression and vodka like hand and I think about just
like having just just boozing up just dude that was I definitely when you're in
the it all alone get as fucked up as you want oh dude just like and for whatever
reason out about you the one thing that is like pulling you through day to day
week to week is you have a show that comes out like every two days yeah or
something like that and you're caught up on every fucking show that's coming out
you've watched so many movies that's what you're doing you're really all this
time that you could be bettering yourself oh yeah getting a degree online
you can fucking you're just fucking binging booze and TV you know the worst
part of that is right so we've had to like I know I mentioned runescape
literally earlier but like we we had to have talked about it before yeah I'm
sure in one of the earlier episodes we've talked about runescape all right
well if we haven't big runescape fans yes not very good at the game but big
fans oh yeah I mean I know I feel like I know exactly what you're gonna say
because runescape and depression in hand and hand and hand and like pulls you
through it and pulls you out of it like it's one of those few because oh I wrote
it in I wrote it down there are some things that when in a depressive state
you binge and then later on you can't stand that thing because it brings you
back to that oh sure feeling to this day cinnamon ice cream I can't fuck with
really that's because of a depression in seventh grade Jesus fucking maple bacon
can't do it the smell it's because maple bacon has such a specific and that's
that all is that the olfactory thing like yeah like smells bring back
memories it's it's like an olfactory deja vu yeah so it's that just like
triggers that shit for me so but runescape never did that it's always
been this comfort whether it was a depression or like outside the press
always good shit yeah I get and it's so funny right cuz like I feel like
everybody that plays runescape is like I remember playing that when I was 13 14
or whatever right and like don't get me wrong I did technically play it for like
I distinctly remember a couple of times definitely probably like it's funny
because I haven't a vast intimate knowledge with a good chunk of it like
so much so that I would describe myself a great descriptive term by the way
description I would describe myself as one who doesn't know very much about
runescape but the true reality is is like if you want to know how to make
something I might know the recipe as I say you know quite a fucking I do know
pretty expert it on it like I've read like I don't read books anymore but I do
read the absolute dogshit out of a runescape wiki oh yeah yeah that is I
think of you as that person that gets really into something and then just
fully delves into it and runescape is like the top of that for you I just I
have so many distinct memories like chilling with Dylan like just being off
work and just just sit in that basement at the Christ the maple house just
sitting in the basement and just getting obliterated just playing runescape all
day yeah just like what quest do you working on oh sick sick I'm trying to
you know I'm trying to get my fairy rings on yeah doing absolutely nothing
together no no no I'm just doing our own thing like honestly like never really
did a bunch of stuff together yeah and even now like when we played on discord
or something when everyone's playing runescape most people are not doing like
a group activity of which there are which there are plenty well and then
even in like your clan chat yeah everybody's just doing their own thing
but it's everybody doing it's that comfort of and this is probably internet
nerd other type of depression we're doing a depression episode welcome to
2024 pre boozing probably pre even recognition of depression or like you're
starting to kind of know it is as a teen for me though it was like online friends
you're like having like as like game that you played and like yeah you guys
play the game but like you're really just there to be around other people for
real I cannot describe I'm actually so glad we're talking about this it's like
the relationship between like the type of individual who's just like maybe they
have anxiety whatever the case is but there's just like I just don't want to
like I need socializing and I need some social charging I just literally can't
go out the door yeah I'm like the the solace and comfort that you find just
like organically meeting people online and there's just it's so Jesus dude it's
crazy I can't describe it to people accurately and there's a there's a
surprising amount of people too that you meet that are like that to the point
where I feel like you run into someone and just from them kind of talking and
describing random things just through bullshitting and finding out about their
life mm-hmm without digging in and without asking you can and you don't
want to ask because you can tell you're like right oh you're like yeah like this
is where you have friends like this is you don't have real-life friends you
have only friends online definitely know a handful of those guys yeah and like
it's it's why I've been slightly jealous of that like because they only have
online friends yeah because there's like a certain because there's some people
that you see that have like some people you know in real life that you see have
very few friends and then you get invited into gaming a certain game with
them or something and they've got these fucking like lifelong friendships formed
with these yeah huge group of people that are all in this very similar
lifestyle where they sure yeah but really they have like 30 fucking friends
that have been this clan on wow forever and you're just like that's the raddest
fuck that is so cool you guys are so much tighter knit then like I've got a
few you know I definitely got my gamer group from like high school yeah you're
talking about mouth boys yeah represent but damn that's a cool group that I need
to hop in there I haven't been in there in so long I just pop it and say I've
been popping a little bit more yeah yeah it's fun to get in there having
different servers you gotta hop in and say I know it's wild well and make those
connections yeah somehow that happens where through the game you make
connections with you people were like I have to go say hey to this person and
even if I don't I've got some friends that like we just say hey there a text
or through a snapchat or through discord or whatever and then like that
friendship will be there for ever and ever in this super solidly formed over
yeah six months of playing a game together you know it's true and honestly
dude I love this court so much like as a group communication tool it's it's it's
hands down one of my favorites is I hate group texts and I hate them I just I
don't love them yeah there's some times where they have a nice any yeah and then
there's other times where you're just like shut the fuck up
fuck oh yeah I get that and then I'm the one that texts about everything at the
same time you know well but then I also go through like these crazy little moods
where I'm like hey check out what I'm doing today yeah I'm taking and then
everyone's like I walked outside for a little bit got some vitamin I stopped
looking at my phone yeah like became a human being again yeah am I like slowly
scooting away from my mic your audio is looking look at me I'm like I'm like
leaning forward now I was like mad chillin earlier we get excited yeah dude
I got pumped I was like oh no discord though I that's so when discord first
came around I must have missed it I feel like hmm but I was invited to a elder
scrolls online server oh hell yeah and they had it was all through discord
what's discord they showed me so it's just free to host a yeah every because
before that ventrilo and team speak now that stuff that cost money to host a
server so that was always how gaming communities would fall off was that
supporters would leave or you know whatever and you're eventually just
people would stop coming in and whoever was running the server for the ventrilo
or the forum online or whatever the server that you played on they couldn't
afford to keep it up for nobody being on there anymore so shut it down
yeah so what's discord came around it was like I've got like four or five guys
on mouth on Facebook I've got a few guys from mouth so mouth was the community
that I gamed with probably started playing with them when I was like 15 is
that your discord server right that is yeah yeah okay and it's cuz I had
started that and I sent the invite out to some people right and then they sent
it out to some people and got a good amount of solid you know they may not be
on there actively but they've still have it in their server right and so that was
a really cool thing to bring back a community that pretty well died off for
five to ten years I don't know what the time frame was but it was really cool
to be able to bring it all back together and now you just have those everyone
seems to check in now almost because of how long it's been going you sure right
like I have a do you mean snap streak or something yeah yeah I know that it's
it's wild like it's it's so natural to me now to have just such a vast group of
online friends and it's so sometimes it's weird because I think I would say
that right now I probably have one of the most affluent social like real life
social circles I guess if you will like I don't know even if it's not true
whatever I don't go fuck right but either way I feel like I do a lot of
stuff IRL but I've also I've got a huge digital you know yeah friends group
today they spend quite a bit of time with two throughout the week and yeah
it's it's so wild to think that there are tons of people that don't do that at
all yeah I have no like electronic correspondence or anything like that and
like I mean and I know the same has to be true for you but like I've met a fair
group or like number of the guys from discord at this point and by a fair
amount I mean like two of them yeah I met two from discord back in the
ventrilo days I met a hand like three of them that were driving through from oh
yeah mass to Cali damn that's a drive yeah and then Darren from mouth I met
when I was out in Boston oh nice yeah oh yeah and so yeah I guess I've had a
I've met a handful you're right yeah yeah that's fucking great I know yeah at
some point like I want to make a trip out to like Illinois and just bro down
with all the with all the guys out there yeah and I know I just sent out wedding
invites and like sneaked I've never met I've been gaming with for 15 years
fuck yeah dude that'd be so fat if he came dude that'd be sick that'd be cool
as fuck actually that's so wild yeah cuz yeah you got like like I'm getting
married I got a kid like yeah exactly and it's so funny if what you're just
like that's where someone Morgan even was like you you're inviting him right
like you know that's she knew that he would hell yeah the wedding list and
that's awesome that's a cool thing where it's like someone knows like oh yeah
that's your homie that's your boy that's the gaming communities are such a funny
interesting thing because even when you look at Call of Duty 1 hmm
willing to bet that came out in 2002 or three she probably and there are still
I'm on like two or three discord servers that are for cod one community one of
them is quite active some of those are the ones that blow my mind
ever quest to communities dude those are fucking mind-blowing yeah those are oh
super old dude it's it's and it's cool to like I don't know how much you putz
around like smaller like much smaller fringe like MMOs but I love just like
spending a little time in some of these these little MMOs where you know we're
talking like an active player base of like two three hundred people yeah fuck
yeah dude and just like these people have been here for like over a decade
and like they all know the shit out of every single person in here and like a
single new user hops on everyone knows yeah it's like oh it's that guy right
there and then everybody's talking to him and like the smaller communities are
usually like hey do you need like yeah this quest like you need someone to run
with you oh dude it's so great I fucking love this it's so awesome there's this
I cannot for the life of me remember what it's called
god damn it they've got a mobile client and a computer client but it's kind of
a top-down 2d runescape esque like Diablo maybe no no definitely more like
runescape different mechanics to an extent it's it's all very similar it
just plays out a little differently fun game though actually great
progression I didn't I didn't play it for very long but I played it
consistently for like probably a month and just I just the people were so cool
everybody was super chill and it was it was one of those games where the
developer I think it was like one guy or a couple of guys maybe they you could
buy things with real money to support them but it was mostly like cosmetic
stuffs and like these there's this one item that you could buy with real
currency and it was like a server wide XP boost and so every time somebody would
pop one of those you'd get a server wide announcement in the you know in the chat
and everything and then everyone would just spam you know thing you know thanks
for 2x and it's just you know just cool people would like hey homie just you
know hit a milestone or something or my buddy just had a baby 2x XP for
everybody for you know six hours or whatever oh that's like that it's just
cool yeah but yeah online online friendships man fucking crazy I was
watching a video about a guy exploring the empty old MMOs from like the like
early 2000s you know and they're like so dead where they can like build they're
just building worlds you know it's kind of like kind of like Minecraft but I
imagine it was like way harder I imagine you had to like I don't know how they
did or where they would put but they would make their own buildings kind of
like second life if you ever saw a second life oh yeah yeah I don't remember
what this place was called like MMO worlds or some shit you know like it's
like some old-school very simplistic names where it's just like before MMO was
probably even considered a thing it's own weird deal and they now have
memorials on these places this guy has passed on you know like don't add to it
like we've like with this it's you can't do anything with it because the
original creator has passed on damn there's a ton of them yeah I will say
there's some really cool things that I've seen done in games to like
memorialize or commemorate wow did a really good job of that on a few yeah
there's a couple in there yeah there's some tearjerker ones on there you're in
the right right depression place yeah and you fucking watch one of those
videos dude you get a ball dude oh yeah that shit will put you down on your
knees a little bit not in a sexy way good way in the sad way yeah in like a
good cry yeah good cry I've been having too many quote-unquote good cries on the
shit early Lee dude fucking take talk man it's just been ruining my life keeps
hitting me with these like super sappy little family coming together bullshit
and I'm just like oh here we go fuck there are certain times where those
things will hit me but take talk definitely no you really won't do it for
me one that really got me probably during just like a vulnerable time I
don't sure when I watched it but the flash the TV show yeah dude that had so
many of those fucking tearjerker for me and now I've seen it like recently and
it's the cheesiest fucking I've heard it's so good like I recall it being I've
done the same thing like hey like Morgan let's watch the show it's good like she
likes goofy superheroes yeah sure yeah like this is right all on that line it's
like heartfelt silly still got some cool action shit and it just there that
first episode was just not I've started it a couple of times I'm just like it's
um and then the green arrow is too moody oh god dude he think oh man it's like I
want and I've seen I've seen our story is it green arrow or just Archer Archer
arrow arrow Jesus I was like we are sure yeah also also that show yeah arrow I
and I did watch arrow but goddamn dude I was like this is a good show but like I
got like two he's so fucking whiny what's brooding yeah brooding moody I
think moody I like moody dude he's just a little bitch
daredevil on the other hand I don't know I think that I think by the time I was
trying to I thought about watching daredevil I'd already been like I'm
superheroed out yeah so specifically those two other shows arrow and the
flash kind of turned me off of that because I don't want to just say DC
shows because that's not what I'm trying to say but there's like they carry such
a specific visual flavor to them that I do not care for but then there is the
Netflix series where you've got because there's not just daredevil there was
also Jessica Jones which I really enjoyed I actually really liked oh the
iron fist was one as well I couldn't get into iron fist was it good it was like
cheesy but also just like it it was tongue-in-cheek kind of cheesy like it
knew how ridiculous it was I could probably handle that and it was a fun
show and then there was the other one it's the bartender dude cage was it was
it Luke Cage okay so I was saying it cage but I knew that was wrong yeah I
Luke Cage was also kind of cheesy and campy I felt like that one blended the
the to camp stuff that we're talking about that's a little too cheesy a little
to camp it blended that with something along the lines of the hardcore violence
like I was like I like this this guy is kind of not the best actor but then he
you like that dude because Jessica Jones it's just like dark and violent okay and
as I recall it's been a long time since I watched I've also heard I've also heard
that it's good I did like that there was that's so funny of how if you look at so
and I'm gonna have trouble am I calling timeline wise but I believe as these
shows are all going on right there is Marvel doing their cinematic building in
their cinematic universe for sure and then DC having it not great movies
coming out yeah you know per huge and then now you look and Marvel is now
doing the TV shows yeah but they're not hitting I feel like the way that those
Netflix shows hit it's funny to me because like obviously they're both on
streaming platforms now but it just feels like looking back at it now that
Netflix DC tiny multiverse that they made in Hell's Kitchen there basically
was really they did a really good job of almost predicting but I guess they were
already doing that probably in Marvel cinematic you know yeah I do like the
crossover I'm a little burned on superheroes too I haven't seen the
newest like Guardians Galax or Guardians I've heard it's so good it looks good I
haven't seen like the last Thor in fact the only superhero show that I've
watched recently was season 2 Loki and that show is fucking nuts that's some
cool shit so here's the problem though right is because Loki will suck me back
in Loki is gonna make me go back and catch up on all of the Marvel shit that
I've missed because the multiverse crap that they're doing it's the we're not in
superhero land anymore this shit's getting fucking tight it is it's still
like it's still what it is yeah it's less for the novelty sake I feel like it
some of the earlier films were and I love them all honest to God I love the
MCU and just a little burnt isn't the right word I'm just like yeah yeah I just
don't really care as much yeah I think that's burnt I think that's just burned out
watching a fuckload of anime I'm gonna catch up on one piece okay that's what
I've been doing I've been watching Transformers Beast Wars fuck yeah dude
yeah you've been telling me a little bit about that sounds honestly kind of cool
it I am so I'm still at a crossroads on whether or not it's cool or not because
Beast Wars can we do it can I do the dive yeah fucking take the plunge my man
here yeah sip up yeah that's good idea yeah sip up wet those lips how many
bottles of water do I do I got three half drink bottles of water in arms reach
all the same time so with Beast Wars it takes place as I recall thousands of
years after like Transformers from the 80s okay and instead of the auto
thousand sorry at least oh shit it's like thousands of years yeah so you've
got the Maximals in place of the Autobots okay you've got optimus primal
in place of optimus prime nice you've got god of course I'm not gonna think of
it now you've got Predacons in place of this decepticons to cons and I want to
say it's Megatron is his name in Beast Wars was it just Megatron let me do
research yeah look that up cuz I remember I remember you mentioning
optimus primal I was like ooh that's so good like it's just it doesn't even feel
like you're skewing the the OG name too much I like that the same happens for
Megatron but fucking does he keep his name as Megatronics no yeah Megarex so
then you've got cheetor who I always just assumed was I don't think his name
is the beetle one bumblebee bumblebee yeah I don't think his name is bumblebee
in the 80s one that takes place after I feel like he had another name but he's
like a very he's always a yellow character and he's like the fast teen
dude yeah he's not really strong but I'm I'm here to help yeah he's fast and like
you know he's like he wants to like yeah he has the gumption and things he takes
things personally yeah he's just he's just a he's just a sweet guy so cheetor
is that he's on the Autobots okay I'm gonna be going through some Autobots
all right hit me with him you've got Rhinox is he like a rhino he is like a
rhino yeah I don't know honestly Transformers well enough to compare him
to anybody yeah but as far as like character stylings go he is jet from
cowboy bebop oh kind of a father like figure okay you know and like he's the
unwitting father he's like I don't want the responsibility he takes to it yeah
he's like he's a laid-back dude he's like I don't want to be yeah he's totally
happy with Optimus being the leader he's just cool in his spot it's kind of a like
smart tech dude all right then dino bot oh straight up yeah okay he's a Raptor
basically of course he is I expected that he he was a Decepticon oh and he
tried to like overthrow Megatron once they landed on earth huh or wherever or
whatever planet they're on okay pretty assumably is earth we are now kind of
skipping because I realize now yeah excuse me
Predacons hmm Megatron is Megatron okay they didn't easy a little bit right so
they are like on an expedition or some shit like that okay the the Maximals are
okay and the the Predacons are kind of tracking them secretly and they're gonna
get some attack planning going on and then something goes on I don't know if
it's like a solar flare or maybe they do attack but something happens where they
both crash land on this planet yeah they crash to land on this planet and there's
energy on energy on an energon is like fuel you know it's like very their source
of energy that they can like like holy shit this most energon ever right like
we're fucking staying here that's it's a good crash landing yeah due to this
crash landing though that's why Dinobot tries to kick Megatron out of control
just a usurper and so then Megatron kicks his ass yeah or something happens
right there like his his bots are still on his side and they like fuck off so
then Dinobot like defaults to becoming an Autobot okay is he trustworthy or is he
kind of a snack a snack dude he's honestly like I'm so I'm two seasons in
cheese and I as far as I recall he's a fucking he stays good okay he's like
he's made the transition all right he's he's found some honor in what the
Autobots do all right kind of respect there's certain things though that he
can't stand like he's like fucking if you guys didn't have this coat of honor
we could win this war like no wonder you guys have lost or like we've been like
tied forever it's because you don't have the balls to fucking yeah you can't
finish the fight yeah step on his head it's over forever
they have their backs here and fucking blow them away get them while they're
running away so they have all these pods out in space and in the pods are what
are called all sparks okay I believe you know the all spark is the spirit of the
transformer right so all spark is a cool fucking idea it's a genius idea because
you can kill off a character and then transport them into a different body
yeah okay so it's like they're subconscious that hasn't happened yet but
like it's yeah but it's like very obviously like oh it's their spirit that
can like yeah you know because but there's these pods that come in and
they've got like non-conform bodies okay and a spark and so once they land they
have to scan for any life forms nearby to copy the form of oh okay that makes
sense and so then that like spark and everything up when you get your
transformer and they turn into a certain animal and like that was the cool
that's Beast Wars man yeah that's how they turned into like dinosaurs and
yeah because there's no humans around there's right cars around for them to
copy it's fucking interesting yeah that's an interesting concept okay I was
always wasn't always sure like from a lore perspective where like yeah where
the inspiration for their things came from yeah merchandising and they're now
also season two some shit goes down oh shit and there's like this blast it's
like solar blast deal I don't know what it was and it causes some of them to like change
oh so there's a guy that's rat trap okay and rat trap is a rat oh that's unlucky
damn okay that sucks rat trap though after this blast though has fucking
wheels and he's like what a car ish what okay from season one to season two the
CGI fucking takes a step because this is one of the first fully CGI animated oh
yeah you did say something about that and it is rough it does like there's so
many clunky yeah movements that but they don't have weight to them oh god yeah
they're down there figuring it out right season two still figuring it out but we
can make it look chrome now hey that works we'll take it figured out some new
colors that we can throw in and so obviously too it's always for selling
toys right right it's just it's for selling transformers yeah but for some
reason I remember there being like a nugget of just like remember the story
being good something in there that's good but I'm also recalling my childhood
brain so it's hard to say season two but then I found out that rooster teeth that
made red versus blue pick it up and make a three-part movie one deal what was
that not that long ago what dude that's sick oh yeah I love Bernie Burns is
writing he's I love it it's he's because he did red versus blue and then he has
that show day six I think it's what it's called and it's where if you fall asleep
you die yeah it's such a great premise on post-apocalyptic that instills such
fear and stress oh yeah yeah and you can only live for so long without sleep right
and you can make it past six days naturally like organically though that's a that's a
feat yeah yeah absolutely yeah so then I mean and they do a great job of bringing
drugs into the whole story like yeah tweaker is your main character because
he's been up for fucking like you but just happened to be up yeah yeah wow I
told everyone I told you guys this is gonna save my life one day
stop cuz it's fucking roommate won't answer his door and he's like can't find
a lighter and he's like goes outside and he's just like oh must be Christmas
cuz like no one's out oh Jesus what a tweaker yeah it must be Christmas
must be like a holiday yeah everybody the rapture happened so yeah so yeah once
I found out that Rooster Teeth is responsible for this recent deal I now
have to go and watch everything before I watch that one because even before
multiverses I've been the kind of guy that has to start from the beginning
yeah I know I feel it I've been doing a lot of discography digging lately okay
and realizing that that is because I've been having issues where like there's a
band that's got four albums sure I've listened to one of them I really like it
but it's can't get myself to listen to the rest sure and started listening to
Ween's whole discography which is huge and weird and it changes a lot and so
I'm doing it from the beginning to now interesting and that's suddenly just
like reemerged this love for listening to discographies from beginning to end
because you hear this like growth and change of the artist and shit like that
it is like that is pretty cool yeah that is cool to see yeah I remember speaking
of because I think I think Rooster Teeth did Ruby as well yes I haven't seen that
oh really I need it's it's a good one actually it's yeah it's quirky it's
funny also goes through a significant visual update well red versus blue does
as well yeah and that's significant what's I forget the guy's name but the
animator for because he became eventually the animator for red versus
blue he was a fan of red versus blue became the animator I don't know if he
did Ruby before but I know we're you know Rooster Teeth is responsible for
Ruby but like he did Ruby once he was with Rooster Teeth and that's his I
believe that's his like love child right oh that's cool and as I recall he passed
away oh well damn that sucks yeah but he same goes for red versus blue where all
of a sudden you're just like these fight scenes are insane yeah dude it's pretty
good it's pretty good man like the story develops really well it's it's not what
it's it's kind of a Scooby-Doo story it's just these meddling kids right kind of
thing okay it's just it's the kids it's well I
guess that's kind of a typical anime thing we're like only the kids can save
the day so yeah adults are dumb the ones that have brains are trying to take over
the world except for our librarian except and this random guy that wears a
hoodie he's American pretty sure he's got a gun mm-hmm yeah no it's it's it's a
good one though I I've watched I watched through it how many seasons is that one I
don't think it's my think it's like maybe three or four don't quote me it's
been a while is it anime would you say because it feels like an American anime
for sure yeah it's I think it's still like to me it has the look and feel of
an anime but like Americans wrote and drew it I don't know if that guy was
American I have no idea but it feels like an American ask anime yeah Texas
to America we're getting better at doing that like some of the animated series
that are coming out on Netflix that aren't anime per se but are just
animated shows are just I mean I did my from my perspective clearly are taking
inspiration from anime because it's just it's so good like the Castlevania show
yeah amazing oh yeah I just call that anime dragon what's the fucking it's it's
it's based on a video game Dragon Quest that's definitely Japanese yeah it's it's
not Wow Dragon Age no holy shit dragons dogma comes to mind that's that's what I
keep thinking too minute it's definitely not no it's oh my god it's and it's a
game that's not it's kind of like League where the the you're not playing this
unit in this universe per se you're playing a game with strict rules and the
characters have all the lore baked into them basically right because they have
all those league movies as well yeah so the well the the show that they did but
two years ago fuck no I can't think of the name of that either Jesus even as
someone didn't play league the animation it's insane well it won it won some
awards if I had to yeah it was incredible story was cool the visuals
were awesome yeah it was yeah you didn't have to know anything about no you
definitely didn't and it's just a fantastic story but yeah so many great
American animes as I'm honestly gonna refer to them yeah they're just animated
shows at that point but I need to watch Ruby yeah Ruby Ruby's good man and it's
it's just a I don't know I don't want to say that it's anything special but I
also want to discredit it it's just it's just solid yeah and it's just kind of
right in the middle but in such a good way yeah I think like I definitely
recommend it it's a great pleasant watch they've just finished red versus blue
you have no they just did like that just oh they still would pump them out yeah
no way I want to say at least 25 20 so I had to because I feel like I stopped
watching at like 15 or 17 seasons and yes I feel like it definitely is putting
dr. who to shame yeah holy shit dude that's insane now mind you the first
couple of seasons are like yeah an hour long sure because they were like web
teams so long yeah sure yeah sure I don't even think that term shorts was
used back then was it what it was they called them roosterteeth shorts or
something I swear that I swear because we never even had because of everything
every video on the internet at time was were shorts technically because you
couldn't put up very large videos anywhere minutes was like that was pretty
even that was yeah but even then like I remember when YouTube had like you get a
full one minute or three you get a three minute video on YouTube holy shit I'm
thinking like nine minutes was for like people that were YouTube creators yeah
before that was kind of just a thing that you when they were sending out
plaques for like you have this many subscribers that kind of thing I still
do that shit yeah but I mean when that first like yeah when that yeah because
it wasn't trying to like pump some life into that yeah I was thinking about it
and I have to be honest people are always talking shit about kids trying to
get like famous on tik-tok or like you know trying to be an internet personality I've been trying to do that for so long
yeah since like yeah like the beginnings of YouTube I was trying to fucking do
that please don't try to find it but they're still out there I was doing
vlogs and all that hell yeah like I fucking yeah like so and what do we do
now a podcast podcast it's basically it's YouTube without the video yeah I
mean you know just a vlog but yeah without the video yeah oh god if I had
to do my makeup every time we recorded I do what do you think I'm doing here the
whole time I'm actually just here putting makeup yeah that's what we do
actually you guys can't see we just do each other's makeup the entire time yeah
that would be so funny just a drag episode yeah or what were you like do
each other into drag that'd be good actually that's a little saucy I like
that actually yeah it's got a good ring to it I think on the back burner yeah
that's our sister podcast where we just we just all we do is binge RuPaul's drag
race and then just talk yeah fuck okay that would be fun I keep trying to grab
my air pod case and trying to set that away from you dude every time I try to
do that I'm just like any time you reach for something to you know leverage or
enjoy a habit that you partake in and it's that item that you've picked up is
not the thing that you meant it just I'm like guarantee there's no question about
oh dude it doesn't help you resolve that addiction at all no I like alcohol no in
fact vaping has only made it worse for me like dude like these new vapes have a
pulse mode it's a double hit every time I've become so hooked on that thing it's
bad dude yeah it's bad I've been talking about it and I'm like I gotta do it yeah
well so like it takes your breath away you just like that that's what makes you
feel like yeah either that or like it's dead you know that immediate panic that
sets in he's like I have to wait I have to wait
yeah yeah that's where or their family guy actually has a great one where you
wake up in the middle of the night I don't know why I woke up I just woke up
like well I may as well hit my vape oh yeah I'll sit and rip it like three times
yeah did you just wake up for no reason did you wake up to hit that vape? dude so straight up I
sleep with mine under my pillow oh dude I just I just have my nightstand charging like to make sure it's
ready to go I usually so I usually buy two at a time and that way I could have
one on the charger and I can have one on me although if I'm being honest one just
is on the chart like I just alternate them so if one dies or it gets too low
I'll just swap them out but then like if I leave the house like I take all of my
vapes with me because you never know dude I could get absconded just like
thrown in the back of a van I'd be like wait my vapes you can take me wherever you want I'll
give you anything you want please let me have my vapes I will be the biggest
bitch if you do not give me my vapes. Like you don't want this you will not want to have me with you.
Unless you had planned on committing a murder I would I would grab those vapes
because you're gonna want to kill me if you don't. I don't know there have been times
where though I do a really good job of forgetting to hit my vape and I do that
too some not not super often I mean maybe even once as much as once a day
sure what will happen is I will have done something during the day set my
vape somewhere go on about my day it's like two hours later I go grab it on my
pocket it's not in my pocket so I go to find it where I find it that's when I
realized I'm like oh I was up doing this thing two hours ago forever ago and it
didn't even fucking bother me I know but if at any point in time I told you you
couldn't hit your vape you'd immediately be like why dude what the fuck yeah I'd be
looking for it instantly but yeah it's the funniest thing so I do wonder
because when I was smoking cigarettes cigarettes were surprisingly I say
now looking back easy to quit because I did quit smoking cigarettes for at least
nine months something like that I was no nicotine just just quit yeah I weaned
myself off of the cigarettes I did like a I went to the non-filtered hmm and
then B I was doing like three cigarettes a day down to two cigarettes a day down
to one cigarette a day yeah and then just making that cigarette last you all
day yeah yeah that was I felt like easy to quit and easy to stay away from
because then when you stop smoking that shit's disgusting yeah when you try a
cigarette again after you've quit it does not do or taste the way that you
know wanted to and then you're just upset and you have a headache yeah my
mouth like yeah close thing the next day it's just like it's still on your lungs
there's just a little bit gross dude that is the difference where with
nicotine pens there the vapes yes you don't know it's like it's like it's like
taking a hit of a candy every time yeah hell yeah it tastes great but because of
that easily forgottenness I wonder yeah I'm not gonna lie dude I but I'm being
totally honest I've never had plans of quitting cigarettes
I didn't either until having a kid yeah that's fair and then after being like
fuck this I need a cigarette yeah I still smoke I still smoke a cigarette
every now I don't I don't smoke cigarettes at all now I have a full pack
of reds in the kitchen anyone offers me a cigarette I'm good yeah even if I
because I remember one time not having my vape being out saying yeah give me a
couple hits of your cigarette I'm just like being mad yeah it's not giving me
nearly the fix that I get from a vape yeah yeah every now and again I'll
indulge I mean I have literally like I said I have a full pack of red somewhere
in the kitchen I don't know where exactly I don't know the last time I had
like it months yeah for sure months no problem but yeah I just it's it's not
the same no and like I mean I can I can I can acquire a pack of cigarettes
worth of nicotine honestly out of this puppy in a day yeah no problem I'm sure
my nicotine intake oh it's quintupled yeah yeah minimal like but they say it's
not the nicotine that's bad it's those yes the carcinogens and honestly I'm not
doing any more research than that I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine if it fucking
kills me well you see how long cigarette smokers live dude yeah what's up with
that it's like it's like oh Sally Sue nicest person you've ever met she's had
cancer one hit above 20 years not even never even came in contact with a
cigarette and yeah just had like four types of cancer yeah different times
like Jesus yeah it's a numbers game and frankly I'm just trying to enjoy this
life yeah I'm with you the older I get obviously the more health conscious I
get you know I'm like I need to be able to touch my toes more than like once a
year for an annual physical it's kind of a practical thing that I like to be able
to do well you know with cigarettes that's I ran into I ran into a time where
breathing was hard yeah I haven't ran into that yeah I haven't ran into that
with vapes yet when I do maybe that'll change my mind because that idea of
breathing all the time like you're breathing through the tiniest straw ever
oh dude that shit freaks me out yeah I don't like that when I get sick and that
happens to me panic attacks right so I can't imagine living with that and
that's a but see what they look at CPD CEO CPD CEO PD I don't fear death as
much as I fear like a greatly restricted experience of life yeah I that's the I
have no way I have no mouth and I must scream whoo the fear of it's the body
fear it's the idea of you know your mind and your body being separate things
they aren't and you know no I see what you're saying like being able to
conceptualize something I want to do and physically I cannot accomplish this
especially we thought oh like paralyzation oh fuck do you someone that
has a bad stutter and can't speak you know like that body horror is what it's
called yeah call it whatever do you like it yeah it freaks me the fuck out yeah
that would be definitely one of those situations where like you know
obviously if I could have the choice of how ill things will be following me I
would absolutely be like oh well if I'm going to be paralyzed from the neck down
I can I be born that way please like I don't I don't honestly think I want to
experience all of the joys of mobility only to have that ripped away from me
like it's a hard one right because however they do usually say that people
that go through something like that are way happier than people like us like
your normal average person yes they get past the suicidal phase I have to imagine
yeah a little bit of humor but also kind of serious yeah but also probably way
harder to kill yourself God Jesus Christ I mean you just well and then you're
super depressed you like I mean a good thing because that's a great thing we we
want everyone that's here to be here and stay here for as long as they if you
want to be yeah no I'm you know I'm totally for that
avocation of like here's my dilemma with that argument because I agree too I'm a
big fan of the choice and I'm a big fan of us like we're not losing friends of
I'm sure there's a super PC term for it but like I want to say it's Switzerland
that has government assisted suicide medically assisted to whatever the fuck
it's yeah and then you know checks and balances in place to make sure that
whatever whatever you know we're not just letting everyone kill themselves
right it's not about men but also it's like your choice you know if you want to
self terminate that's that's your prerogative and personally I believe that
people should have that right but it's kind of one of those gray areas because
I'm like shit man I would have killed myself 15 times by now if that was like
a social norm ish thing to do we're acceptable is it I mean I don't want to
do the list right now but when I think about like people that I've yeah no or
have graduated I'm definitely not arguing that it's a pretty for how young
we are yeah grand scheme of things it's a surprising number it's oh it's it's I
would say you know like it's a lot of people yeah and so that's that's for me
that's where it's great and I think that's for us specifically in America I
think that's us I think that's a social problem massively so like I would not
want something like that to be allowed in America specifically because I don't
think our social existence I don't think we have the support in place world war
what we just fucking killed ourselves oh god yeah no that's world war three just
like yeah America wiped itself out the other day they legalized suicide yeah I
don't I don't think we have the infrastructure in place or the or the
social app appetite to I'm not saying you're gonna put a suicide booth up like
they have a future Rama where you walk in this 100% what I'm talking about I
mean I just I'm with you totally I would like usually I'd be home I would like
for that option to be in place I think that that's a personal right that people
should be allowed to execute I just fear oh man oh that's a far too complex a
question of morality and the like for this podcast god damn you know I just I
totally agree with the sentiment of please stay here call me would so much
rather and that's always been here yeah I'm like a lot like a couple really
like close friends it is the question of curiosity I guess where you're like why
or like would you wish you've at least called me and talked to me first you
know I said goodbye oh it sucks and I get out waking up one morning that your
friend was so miserable in life that they decided to end it yeah that's the
worst sucks yeah god damn it yeah but there is a when I was gonna get to
through all this heavy shit there's a tattoo going around that people are
getting you know like there was the colon the colon or the semicolon
semicolon yeah there's one going around now that says let them or just let them
or something like that okay it's about like just let people say what they will
about you live your life and let people just let people just let them be yeah I
thought it was an anti semicolon just let them oh Christ that's Jesus and I
wanted that tattoo instantly man because that is funny though yeah it sucks right
it's the like all that shit sucks but also that's like at the same time like
man if that's the only way someone's gonna find peace and they don't want to
rob though I don't want to force them into a miserable existence like oh man I just really wish
you were still here with me oh and the person that killed themselves is selfish
we yeah no right it's a fine you know it's definitely a fine line it's not gonna be the
same line for and oh and that's why I have such a problem with it is I don't I
wouldn't trust our societies I don't I don't trust America society to perpetuate
a loving environment that will encourage people to not kill themselves
yeah no I feel like we put those in and like like kids in high school are gonna
be just I don't think that's like I don't I don't know but I'm assuming in
Switzerland or wherever it is that they can do this I don't think it's like I
imagine you have to be 18 or older there's a hundred you know I'm sure you
have to go through like a therapist as like totally sound of yeah there's
there's a there's some checklists that you I've seen faults in our stars
there is a cancer one it's me and blah blah and Earl or something there's some
movie that's about that exact thing yeah so depressive episode yeah yeah we did
do a depressive so didn't yeah yeah really friendly though like I think we've
we've covered some heavy topics with a little bit of a light touch yeah well
and you know it's it's a smile and a light touch from a place that has
experience it's not just someone laughing at something oh fuck no you know it's
someone laughing from experience yeah and yeah why not yeah why not I mean
life as a as a as a mild closing note on what I feel summarizes the our
credentials for this type of conversation comedy should be allowed
everywhere nothing should be off limits by anybody I yeah by anybody for we oh
fuck man some people should just be executed on site there was a quote I saw
I'm gonna steal it where it was like if you call it sacred I wiped my ass with
it I fucking love dude I hate bumper stickers but I would I would laugh if I
saw that oh yeah yeah yeah that's pretty good I remember I remember the time
where I thought bumper stickers were cool I just could not bring myself to
stick them to the damn car I was 18 and I put a I had a one love sticker you
remember that smoke shop yeah yeah and the logo next to the words one love on
a Rasta flag mm-hmm was a Bob Marley esque hitting a bong and I said like
one love right so I took I worked at an auto place as a detail so I made it say
loner love loner love and I turned the the bong into a shotgun
Jesus little blasts coming out of the back of the head oh my god that was that
was I thought that was so cool and now I think like edge Lord calm down dude fuck
man place my halo chill out yeah I always had bumper stickers for brewing
breweries for bands yeah yeah I'm with you now we're like I wouldn't probably
put it on my car yeah I again I still think to some extent some of them are
cool and I like the idea of that like personalization has it's a very like
late 90s early 2000 putting stickers on my pencil bag yeah well and I would love
to get that Saturn running again that has all the fuck yeah three stickers and
everything on it and if the if you just have a travel car you know if you have a vehicle that's
dedicated to just like long road trips and shit like that get a sticker from
fucking everywhere you stop right cool that's cool if you have a bunch of
fucking political statements or like anti-political statements or whatever
fucking yeah leave it for Facebook dude the place is a cesspool yeah that's
unfortunate I don't have to look at this bullshit while I'm driving you're gonna
give me a road rate life for real god the ones that are just blately and don't get me
wrong I love inappropriateness I love crass things you know I love vulgarity
in most most forms pretty much but like the crass for the sake of crass bumpers
I fucking hate those dude the balls under the truck it's the same I still
judged people I would never put them on but like every time I see him I'm like I
will publicly shame this person for having this I appreciate that's crass
oh dude I remember the first time I saw one of those I was just like that is
hands down the coolest fucking thing I've ever seen what do you think is too
crass of a bumper sticker honestly any but I'm thinking of like those ones or
it's like the compilation pieces it's just like the entire back of somebody's
car is just like you've got some crazy Bible verses like are obviously like
you like they're valid all in with like you had to write it out with the
stickers and it goes from the top of your fucking bumper down to your fucking
bumper like the back of your fucking car I don't know what you call it the top of
your trunk down to the right yeah yeah yeah 100% yeah I hate that shit when
it's like here's some Bible verses and then like it's always Bible verses there's some fucking super crazy
political crap and it's got the opposite side of my belief or you know political
system or fuck lords or cucks you just I was just like you have the Jesus fucking
you got the Jesus fish out there but it also says fuck Joe Biden or something
like it's got some hateful shit yeah yeah and then there'll be one about like I
love my kids so much or some bullshit and just like dude pick a lane my kid
sells your kid Adderall oh god I hate those like my kid is a fucking eight
plus student at this place like you okay so what you don't think you drive past a
pedophile once in a blue moon you just told them where your kid is fucking
weirdo what the fuck no dude well you think a pedophile just driving and sees
someone and then they see that stick and they're like I bet you look good as a
kid well so peep this out right okay so I feel like I've heard somebody talk
about this specifically somewhere it was like a maybe it was a TED talk or
maybe it was a podcast where some dude was like things talking about things
that like people do that they don't think about that are actually like a
massive gateway to their data being exploited in some way or another or
putting painting a target on their back unnecessarily in some way shape or form
and so some of that was like when you go on vacation don't post it on fucking
Facebook you're gonna get robbed you know kind of shit yeah yeah and one of
those things was like bumper stickers like quit telling people how many
people live in your house you know because they have like the the mom dad
and all the kids and the dog right you know stickers in the window or the or
your college that you got yeah this is where my kid goes to school type shit
yeah yeah yeah it's crazy yes people are just outing themselves everywhere every
chance they get yeah it is funny to see it all the Facebook things that you know
are to get older people to post what year they graduated they're like oh sure
what you're like it's just a straight-up what the post is just share what year
you graduated yeah fill out this crazy little thing and see what kind of
stupid bullshit all your login like yes like the top ten fucking yes security
question answers yeah people are just throwing that shit out there like I
don't understand how it was hacked you weren't hacked you fucking gave your
shit away you didn't get hacked you fucking logged in you gave them your
login info I did it too when I was 12 yeah yeah I did oh god I actually I've
done that with my RuneScape account like three different times over the years and
it's just me being too hasty trying to fix some kind of account issue or
something and so I'm going to the site to try to log in and I don't realize
that I've clicked on a sponsored link or something yeah and then I end up signing
in on the wrong website and I'm like oh fuck and then I get oh god I gotta fucking log in and
change my password yeah yeah damn because now I tend to pick passwords that are
very specific to what's going on in my life at any given point in time and the
one that I have now is a powerful message to myself and obviously I'm not
gonna say what it is cuz that would be right that would be so dumb sure but
there's some pretty good ones in there there's some pretty pretty solid bangers
if I may well so now if you need that's password just guess a lot of different
dumb self motivation lines live laugh love exclamation mark love yourself
actually I did hang in there kitty I did have love yourself as a password for
a while yeah or like some sappy shit like don't forget to smile
it was important to me I was like I'm gonna be typing this in every 15 minutes
every day of my life when I you know at work I need to cheer myself up don't
forget to smile it's just me like a tear running down as I'm typing in my
password like yeah so yeah for anyone just a quick recap for anyone that may
