Been a minute

4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:11,440
That's been a minute. I say that a lot, but this time feels like it's actually been a minute

5
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:16,760
We've taken a week off. No one knows. No one knows no one will know well, you'll know now

6
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,520
Peak behind the curtain sleep. No, but last last episode was fun

7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,920
But I think we just got a little just got a little hungover from having the arms on yeah

8
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:33,480
Yeah, that's true. No, well in Dallas. We had a good old time with them. I'm still scarred by my story. I'm not gonna lie

9
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:36,200
I don't think I'll ever forget it and I'm

10
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:43,920
It's over right merrim it'll forever haunt me. Do you mean to remind you? Yeah one word vibrator?

11
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:52,840
Yeah, yeah, that was that was that was why like I think that's gonna be the story I'm known for for the rest of my career

12
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:58,040
The rest of it. Yeah, you peeked there. Oh, no

13
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:05,880
Peak like a little valley is more like a climax. Oh, hey, I'm so sorry

14
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,520
So that's the same as a peak

15
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,560
Yeah, I was trying to give you the the word valley like

16
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,200
Guys

17
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:25,120
That's story. I yeah, that was grotes. I can't but we all know mine was not the fake because

18
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,320
I'm telling you right now. It was not the fake

19
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,760
Who do we think was the fake of last week?

20
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:41,520
So Noel voted Marley as the fake and Dallas our guest voted Isaiah as the fake and we will say that one of them

21
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,920
was right

22
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,080
Boys rule it was the dude. He was right there

23
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,680
We did it again the boys

24
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,880
Stupid boys when it's anything

25
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,920
You just gonna do sign language

26
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,560
trying to be garlic

27
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,800
Didn't say anything

28
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:05,920
Let's go

29
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:12,160
How did Phil to get called out though? What I thought you were gonna scoop by with no one guessing you

30
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:17,280
Mm-hmm. I don't know. I think it was because he just I think it's because he saw my phone. Oh

31
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,280
You think I'm out you're calling him out

32
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:30,800
Yeah, Dallas listening Isaiah thinks you cheated you're exposed. I don't think you cheated but I think you knew I wasn't on reddit

33
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,800
I think that's what it was

34
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,760
Maybe

35
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,600
Maybe he's just a really good guy looking at my phone

36
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,560
Yeah, but all of you guys were like like but everyone else just kind of just chill with it

37
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:49,360
Yeah, I would have overreacted you wouldn't they would have both no, yeah, you're right. You know, but also I think he just called you

38
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,600
I think he guessed it right. Let's give him a little credit. I'll give him credit. He did it. He did it

39
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:59,200
He did whether you saw it or not a good job Dallas. I'm proud of it and we're excited. We need to have them back on

40
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:06,080
You know that was a vibe. It was really fun. Well, I'm looking forward to this week's let's go

He had a yogurt yogurt like yogurt parfait

62
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:45,440
And then he brought his laptop and he created a video for me slideshow saying all the reasons why he loved me

63
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:51,280
I'm not kidding you guys this man is so romantic then we're not done. That was literally just the morning

00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,920
He blindfolded me and we went to an ice skating rink and we went ice skating

67
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,280
Then he blindfolded me and we went to the movies

68
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,200
Saw a rom-com. It was bad. It was really bad

69
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,360
But we saw a lot of fun then he blindfolded me and then we went and got massages

70
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:25,560
Couple massage. It was the best couple massage. I've ever had my life central oils massage an hour and a half. It was

71
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,520
Unbelievable then we're all oiled up and feeling Lucy goosey. Guess what we did next

72
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,880

Tricked yeah, no then we went home and I got ready for the day

75
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:50,120
We looked super cute and then all of a sudden I get out of the bathroom and Jobs know where to be found

76
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:56,900
He's gone and I see notes and he took me on a scavenger hunt where I had to go find him

77
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,000
So I'm going to different places

78
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:06,720
Literally like our mailbox are like all over the place getting all these different notes and then I find him at a park

79
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:12,120
And he is dressed up in a suit and tie with a rose in his hand you guys

80
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:19,080
And he read me a poem that he wrote me and I cried it was the most beautiful

81
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,680
It sounds so cheesy, but like when you're in love you're in love and you're feeling it, okay?

82
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,520
And I was crying and it was raining by the way

83
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,400
It was like sprinkling like the good kind of rain not like oh my gosh. I'm soaked my makeup my hair

84
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,160
It was like let's make out in the rain, but like it feels nice

85
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:36,960
so then

86
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,560
He reads me the poem and then guess where he takes me

87
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:45,480
Then our butts go to cheesecake factory my favorite restaurant shout out please sponsor and

The title of this episode is romance stood no chance. Yes, so perfect place to start. It's our first Valentine's Day together

95
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:23,640
Cirque up 2016. I'm living with my brother at the time. I'm working at the golf course. We're dating

96
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,280
We were not yet engaged, but we were talking about marriage and

97
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,720
She for Valentine's Day. She decided she was gonna heart attack my house

98
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:39,040
My my brother's house. She has no doubt what heart attacking is. Yeah, like the spoons and the things and all of it

99

00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,200
On the days that I go in it's whatever so she spends an

101
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,160
Unbelievable amount of time writing all the things she loves about me. She puts them all over my car

102
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,800
She does like the saran wrap thing on the car photos on individual hearts and like literally like

103
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:03,360
It's so long. It wasn't just like cutting out hearts and putting them out there. It was like each heart was individualized

104
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:10,320
Beautiful cute and this is Valentine's morning. It was a Sunday. I remember vividly kissed his car everywhere

I like this is what happened. She did all this work and then she's just she's just sitting in her car

110
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,960
And she's just waiting. She's like she's so excited

111
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,480
Like for me to wake up for me to see it. So she

00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,560
Like calls me and calls me and somehow she gets me to wake up

113
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:44,640

And I was just like we didn't see it to the rest of the Valentine's Day until that night

136
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,280
He convinced me to come

137
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,600
And I was pissed the whole time. It was terrible. It was the worst Valentine's Day ever

138
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,080
It was so bad. Yeah, but I felt like the biggest jerk of all time dude

139
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:26,080
It was freaking you made me you've made it up. Well that yeah that one Valentine's Day that alone made up for it

So like we don't take work off anymore. We're like just doing the normal thing now

150
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:07,360
At least for now if we're like rolling in the dough we for sure will take it off again because it's so fun

151
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:13,280
It is fun. Yeah, but I mean we haven't been rolling in the dough since a long time ago. So I know

155
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,080
And it's dark. Yeah, just ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping

156
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,880
It's like literally a freaking

157
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,040
battlefield in there

158
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,800
Well, you know, what's crazy is this will be mine and Isaiah's first

159
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:50,400
valentines in like three years like together like spending it actually together. That's fun. Do you guys have plans?

160
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,280
We're going to Utah for a wedding. Oh heck yeah

161
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:58,960
Yeah, so we'll be there only word of advice I have for you guys and anyone else all our listeners out there

162
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:05,840
For a Valentine's Day if you are going to take your spouse or girlfriend or boyfriend out to dinner

163
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,000
only go places that there are reservations or

164
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,760
Eat at home

165
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,760
please

166
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:20,800
Eat at home make it make like whatever the meal is at home because it's way better to just

167
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:26,480
Be together. Yes, because at restaurants. It's so packed in the waiting it takes so long

168
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:32,720
It's not romantic. Then you sit on top of each other like a cheesecake. You know, they sit you like

169
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,520
So that's something we started doing a few years ago and we really like it

170
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:39,600
But hey, it's each their own

171
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:45,600
I also love the switching off part because it doesn't like put the load all on one person like every single time

172
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:52,800
I love that my favorite Valentine's Day tradition is waking up really early and going to like

173
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,840
Wherever fries or whatever is open to buy flowers and there are

174
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,360
100 dudes there doing the same exact thing

175
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:08,400
Valentine's morning. It's like all the procrastinating dudes. We're all there spending 50 bucks on a bouquet. It should cost $12

176
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,760
I don't and I tell them every year. I'm like go to Trader Joe's

177
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:17,840
You will save so much money and you can also buy me chocolate too when you're there and still pay less

178
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,600
Yes, always go to Trader Joe's. Yeah, but how like

179
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,000
How do you how do you hide it? How do you keep it a secret?

180
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,480
Because I'm not I can't go to Trader Joe's

181
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,880
Before you wake up. I mean I can but it's Trader Joe's opens at eight. Oh

182
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,400
For sure. Okay. I mean, it doesn't have to be secret. Why don't you go?

183
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,840
Okay, this year you go at night the night before

184
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,400
And then and then it's not a surprise Valentine's morning. Do you see the dilemma? Oh

185
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,280
Okay, okay. I get you I get you I get you

186
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,040
Hey girls don't have to worry about that. We don't get you flowers. Yeah, I know

187
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:56,480
You always hear the whole thing like it's sad that the first time a man gets flowers is during their funeral

188
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:01,280
Yes, because we don't care about flowers. So sad. Do you need flowers?

189
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,240
No, I want flowers. What do you want?

190
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,080
I want golf balls

191
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:12,800
Yeah, you have so many golf balls. Me more. Give me give me a watch band. Yeah, you like that big boy?

192
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,800
You like that

193
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,880
Do you like that big boy?

194
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,000
You want a watch band?

195
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,800
Give me a watch band. Oh

196
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:36,560
Okay, well, I'm excited for this episode. Thanks for letting us start out with a little Valentine's Day stories. Yeah, how's that for an intro?

197
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:41,840
It's beautiful. I'm feeling good. Let's hear the story that you found miss. Oh, okay

198
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:47,200
You get to go first. I guess I love that for me. Listen. Is that kind of rhyming or yeah, that's oh

199
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,760
It's it rhymes for sure and chat you be cheating come up with that one. That's straight Joe this brin

200
00:14:53,760 --> 00:15:08,160
You love that it's in there

201
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,440
No

202
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,040
the worst Valentine's Day imaginable

203
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,620
and possibly ruining the holiday for her forever.

204
00:15:26,620 --> 00:15:29,440
All right, so I20M might have just single-handedly

205
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,520
destroyed a girl's ability to ever celebrate

206
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:32,620
Valentine's Day again.

207
00:15:32,620 --> 00:15:34,400
Like, I genuinely think I scarred her.

208
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:35,840
And before you assume anything,

209
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,840
no, I did not ghost her, insult her, or stand her up.

210
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:39,720
I showed up.

211
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,040
I tried.

212
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,920
And that was the problem.

213
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:44,760
It started with me matching with this girl.

214
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,600
Let's call her Emily on a dating app.

215
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,440
We had a couple of good conversations

216
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,560
and I figured why not ask her out?

217
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:51,960
Only day she was free?

218
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,520
Valentine's Day.

219
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,040
Did I take that as a warning sign?

220
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:55,880
No, I did not.

221
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,160
I took it as fate.

222
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,160
Oh, it looks so.

223
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,120
Red, black.

224
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:00,960
Yeah.

225
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:01,920
Now let me be clear.

226
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,840
I did not plan this date with her in mind.

227
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,480
I planned the perfect date for me

228
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,040
and I assumed she'd just be down for the ride.

229
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:08,880
When I picked her up,

230
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,400
she walked out in a dress and heels

231
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,440
and realized she was probably expecting a romantic evening

232
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,280
and that's not what I had planned.

233
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,040
I took her to my favorite spot in town

234
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,400
and it's like an arcade bar, comic book shop, hybrid,

235
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,880
that I go to with my boys a lot.

236
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,440
Is that like a thing or are there things out there like that?

237
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,440
Sounds like a hype place to hang out.

238
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,080
Wait, so what's the combo?

239
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,920
It's like a arcade bar, comic book shop, hybrid.

240
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,280
Arcade bar, comic book shop.

241
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,200
If this...

242
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,280
Arcade bar, that works.

243
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,160
Throw some comics in there and the nerds are in.

244
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,000
It's cool.

245
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,360
Okay, sure.

246
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,680
I wonder if there's anything down here like that.

247
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:46,520
You wanna go?

248
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,320
Cool.

249
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,760
Sounds like a good place to pick up dudes.

250
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,000
Yeah, we should go.

251
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,760
She's just testing the waters to see

252
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,120
if you're down for this Valentine's.

253
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,440
Oh yeah, that sounds like the...

254
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,480
Is this like something you would want me to plan for you?

255
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,360
Yeah, that's the hang for sure.

256
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,680
When we walked into the arcade,

257
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,400
she started to look a bit uncomfortable

258
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:05,640
so I tried to warm her up and said,

259
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:06,600
sick, right?

260
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,040
I love this place.

261
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,400
She kind of smiled.

262
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,680
We played some games and I felt like she was opening up

263
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,760
a little more so I continued on with my plan.

264
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,120
I took her to my favorite place to eat a wings joint

265
00:17:17,120 --> 00:17:19,920
where they have a blazing inferno death challenge.

266
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,640
Who is this guy?

267
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,840
Who's this guy you know?

268
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,600
He should have taken a literal boy.

269
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:26,440
I know.

270
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:27,280
He's a Chad.

271
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,240
I ordered the spiciest wings on the menu for myself.

272
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:33,840
Didn't ask what she wanted.

273
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,920
Didn't even check if she liked spicy food.

274
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,960
I just assumed she'd watch me suffer and be into it.

275
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,280
She ordered a salad and then my wings arrived.

276
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,280
I took one bite and immediately started sweating.

277
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:46,920
My nose was running, my eyes were watering,

278
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,600
but instead of emitting defeat, I tried to play it cool.

279
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,440
She just sat there visibly repulsed,

280
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,560
like actually physically leaning away from me

281
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,600
as I turned into a human waterfall of sweat and regret.

282
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,040
That's funny.

283
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,040
At this point, at this point, she looked checked out,

284
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,280
but did I pick up on it?

285
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:04,120
No.

286
00:18:04,120 --> 00:18:04,960
Instead I asked her,

287
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,000
ever wonder what your future kids will look like?

288
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,840
I feel like ours would have sick hair.

289
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,200
My gosh.

290
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,960
She said nothing and kept taking small bites of salad

291
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,200
looking around like she was looking for help.

292
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:17,600
To cap off this terrible day,

293
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:18,960
I decided to give her a gift.

294
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,000
Romantic, right?

295
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:20,960
No.

296
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:21,960
As we're driving home,

297
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,120
I had a photo of me pinned in the passenger seat visor

298
00:18:25,120 --> 00:18:27,080
for my high school wrestling days.

299
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,200
When she pulled it down to look at herself in the mirror,

300
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:30,320
she saw my photo and said,

301
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,520
oh, I then said, here, take it as I unpinned it

302
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:34,760
and handed it to her.

303
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,720
I thought you might like something to remember tonight by.

304
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,000
Her mouth was literally open

305
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,240
and she burst it out laughing

306
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,360
and said nothing the entire car ride home.

307
00:18:43,360 --> 00:18:46,160
We pulled up to her house and she quickly said thanks

308
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,400
and practically jumped out.

309
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,040
She didn't even let me walk her to the door.

310
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,000
So yeah, I'm pretty sure I traumatized this girl.

311
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,960
I don't think she'll ever be able to hear the words

312
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,320
Valentine's Day without thinking about me.

313
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,040
So guys, am I the asshole?

314
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:01,720
It's not giving asshole.

315
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,280
It's giving just dumb boy,

316
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,400
like there's just X on every category.

317
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,480
Everything he does.

318
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,800
Like this is thick, right?

319
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,360
This is where me and my boys go all the time.

320
00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:18,120
And she's literally wearing a dress and heels.

321
00:19:18,120 --> 00:19:18,960
Here's the thing though,

322
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,920
I'm the type that a guy's taking me on a date

323
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:21,840
to the arcade.

324
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:22,680
I'm getting down.

325
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,600
I'm gonna beat him in basketball every time.

326
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,440
And like air hockey, he beats me.

327
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,400
He can take that.

328
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:32,680
Look, why are you lying about one

329
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:33,960
and being truthful about another?

330
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,160
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

331
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,600
How'd I beat you in basketball?

332
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,680
That was once and I was like, my arm was sore.

333
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,240
I was, I broke my arm.

334
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:44,600
I was shooting lefty.

335
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,880
I would bet $50 right now.

336
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,560
That's a lot of money.

337
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,600
$50 that if we went to my arcade tonight

338
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:58,440
and we did it one time, the first time, I would beat him.

339
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,160
Okay, this is for the listeners.

340
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,040
You can get in on this wager.

341
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,720
We will live stream this event.

342
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:04,560
Yes.

343
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,880
We'll go live.

344
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:06,720
Any platform.

345
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:07,560
Deal.

346
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:08,400
$50?

347
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:09,240
$50.

348
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,200
Okay, it's a $50 gift card to cheesecake

349
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,160
or a $50 gift card to the golf store.

350
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,320
Deal.

351
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:15,160
Okay.

352
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:16,640
I want my shoulder.

353
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,800
And guys, me and Joe went on a date.

354
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,760
Many golfing and I beat him by six strokes

355
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,120
and he was a college golfer.

356
00:20:22,120 --> 00:20:24,760
So guys, I am very athletic.

357
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,480
And I will destroy you.

358
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,400
Blind squirrel finds a nut.

359
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,240
This one comes from, am I the asshole?

360
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,560
17 days ago, go find it.

361
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,400
Am I the asshole for not letting my friend's husband

362
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,160
come to my Gallentine's party?

363
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,000
No, cause you know what a freaking Gallentine's is.

364
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,000
This dude's gotta go.

365
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,520
Oh, you guys just buckle up, okay?

366
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,200
Your Gallentine's parties are gonna be threatened forever

367
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,040
after this one.

368
00:20:56,360 --> 00:21:00,640
Backstory, one of my 29 F best friends, 32 F,

369
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,360
got married last spring.

370
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:04,440
Since she got married, we do mostly group hangouts

371
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,160
with her husband who's 38 M,

372
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,560
my partner and some other friends,

373
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,120
which is totally fine and fun.

374
00:21:09,120 --> 00:21:11,560
Now, I have a Gallentine's party every year

375
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,880
for my girlfriends, usually about four or five of us

376
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,120
and we all bring in appetizer and have wine,

377
00:21:16,120 --> 00:21:17,440
play some games, et cetera.

378
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:18,880
I texted the group to let them know

379
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:19,960
and everyone responded.

380
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,640
My friend messaged me privately to say that

381
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,720
if her husband can't come, she can't come

382
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,360
and asked if he could come with her.

383
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,360
I normally would welcome him,

384
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:31,720
but no one else's husband or boyfriends will be there

385
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,360
and it just isn't that kind of party, LOL.

386
00:21:34,360 --> 00:21:36,760
I told her that no one else's partners would be there

387
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,640
and she said that since being married,

388
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,120
they are a package deal and only attend things together.

389
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:43,000
Gag.

390
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,920
I told her I respected whatever arrangements

391
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:45,840
they had in their marriage

392
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,400
and if she wasn't able to attend, I understood.

393
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,680
However, a few days later, a mutual friend told me

394
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,920
that they talked and she said she was hurt by the fact

395
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,520
I wouldn't invite him and felt I was being rude.

396
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,360
Oh my gosh.

397
00:21:57,360 --> 00:21:58,840
I do plan to talk to her about it,

398
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,560
but I just need some feedback from Reddit.

399
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:01,560
Uh, this is weird.

400
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,280
Edit, a few words.

401
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,600
Edit number two.

402
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:05,920
Because a lot of people asked,

403
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,400
this party is held on the 13th, not on Valentine's Day.

404
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:10,400
Edit number three.

405
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,440
Thanks everyone who has taken the time to respond.

406
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,160
I had a lot of anxiety about this.

407
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,480
I knew I had done the right thing in my head,

408
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:17,920
but then I second guessed myself.

409
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:19,920
Now I feel good in the boundaries I set.

410
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,000
But wait, there's more.

411
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:21,920
Edit number four.

412
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,680
Valentine's Day, a day to celebrate female friendship

413
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,000
similar to Valentine's Day,

414
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,240
but for friends instead of romantic partners.

415
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,320
It's often celebrated on February 13th,

416
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,360
the day before Valentine's Day.

417
00:22:32,360 --> 00:22:35,560
It's for all female friendships and not just singles.

418
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:36,840
That was, this is obviously,

419
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,560
she's referring to stuff that's in the comments.

420
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,120
And then update.

421
00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:43,080
My friend ended up reaching out to me.

422
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,880
She said that her husband is uncomfortable

423
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,440
with girls nights or events that he cannot attend.

424
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,240
He told her, I know what happens at girls nights.

425
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,560
I guess he was cheated on in his previous marriage

426
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,320
and he said he worries a lot.

427
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,520
Doesn't mean you can be the only person with a d*** this party.

428
00:22:58,520 --> 00:22:59,360
That's right.

429
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:00,200
You wish.

430
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,720
No, that's exactly what it means.

431
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:02,880
Oh yeah?

432
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,080
Yeah, tell her dude.

433
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:04,920
Yeah.

434
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:05,760
Like.

435
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:06,600
Stick it to me.

436
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,720
You guys are a package deal.

437
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:09,560
Stick what?

438
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:10,400
For sure.

439
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,240
No.

440
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:13,320
No.

441
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:14,160
No.

442
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,160
When you do your stuff,

443
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,040
I'll, yeah, you just go do your stuff.

444
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:18,600
When I do my stuff, I do my stuff.

445
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:19,440
Yeah.

446
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:20,280
Oh, so you're normal?

447
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:21,640
You do our stuff together.

448
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:22,800
That's tight.

449
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,880
You guys are normal, that's tight.

450
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,840
But I don't think, yeah.

451
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,320
That's so weird.

452
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:29,160
Like.

453
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,000
That dude's crazy.

454
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,240
And if he's already uncomfortable as a girl,

455
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,200
like, you know how freaking,

456
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,120
like that would just change literally,

457
00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:37,840
like that would make everybody else so uncomfortable

458
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,080
if he was there.

459
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,960
He's just like the one dude,

460
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,280
they're all talking about like their favorite toys

461
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,320
and all the stupid stuff that girls talk about

462
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:46,320
at girls nights.

463
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,160
And the dudes are just over there like.

464
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,760
Yeah, that's cool.

465
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,520
Like that guy is weird for even wanting to go.

466
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,360
Like.

467
00:23:56,360 --> 00:23:57,200
Yeah.

468
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,360
Like to see just like the girls attention,

469
00:23:58,360 --> 00:24:01,520
like that's obviously some, like I just,

470
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,800
I get being triggered because of,

471
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,320
in his past relationship,

472
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,280
she cheated on him during a girls night.

473
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,720
However, this is a completely different girl.

474
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,480
And they're girls, she says what they're doing.

475
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:15,920
They're literally at someone's house

476
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,400
with appetizers and playing games.

477
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,400
Drinking some wine.

478
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,000
Drinking wine, but you're not at a,

479
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:21,840
you're not going clubbing.

480
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,840
Yeah, no, you're not going out.

481
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,680
Where there'll be other people, you know, like.

482
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:27,520
It's a very different.

483
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:28,840
It could influence.

484
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:29,680
It would be different.

485
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,640
And I would understand if it was like a trip to Vegas.

486
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:33,680
Right. Yeah.

487
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,520
Like something weird.

488
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,400
I can understand being triggered,

489
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,800
but however, this is not that.

490
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:42,640
No.

491
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:43,920
Just like, hey girls, we're going to Vegas

492
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,080
for Galantines this year.

493
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,120
This dude's just like, I'm ready to go.

494
00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:50,080
Like I will be with you.

495
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:51,640
We're going to make sure that none of you

496
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,040
cheat on your partners.

497
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:54,880
That actually killed it.

498
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:55,920
I'll be the police.

499
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,680
Unless it's with me.

500
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:58,520
Oh.

501
00:24:58,520 --> 00:24:59,360
Right. Yeah. Maybe he just wants to bang.

502
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:00,200
Plot twist.

503
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:01,040
All right.

504
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,800
I mean, hey, no one's,

505
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,240
no guy's actually wanting to go to a Galantines

506
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,680
unless he likes the attention of other girls.

507
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,680
I would legitimately rather sit at home

508
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,080
and watch paint dry.

509
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,720
Then go to a Galantines party.

510
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,520
Like I cannot think of a place I'd rather not be.

511
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,400
Five girls, five of Marley's friends,

512
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,480
all doing a little paint night.

513
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,280
And you're like, I'm coming.

514
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:25,840
Not like if it's at your house,

515
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,120
it's at someone else's house.

516
00:25:27,120 --> 00:25:28,760
It's a different thing if it thinks

517
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,280
it's at your house. Yeah, I know I'm not going.

518
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,240
I'm gonna go golf.

519
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,080
Exactly.

520
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,320
It's night.

521
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,400
You're gonna freaking play video games.

522
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,120
Yeah, you're gonna do anything but go.

523
00:25:38,120 --> 00:25:39,680
Yeah, no, I'm not going.

524
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:40,680
Yeah.

525
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,040
That's like a,

526
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,200
And I wouldn't even ask to go.

527
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,800
I would ask like, oh, are other guys going?

528
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:45,640
No, it's just girls.

529
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:46,480
Okay, I was down.

530
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:47,480
Like I'm home.

531
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,640
You're like, oh, are other guys go,

532
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,400
like there's other guys that are going?

533
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:52,600
They're stupid.

534
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:53,760
Tell them to have fun.

535
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,360
But here's the thing too,

536
00:25:55,360 --> 00:25:57,760
this guy, you don't get to stop Galantines from happening

537
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,000
because you're feeling a little insecure

538
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,720
from your past relationship.

539
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:02,560
Yeah. Right.

540
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,160
Like going to hang out at a friend's house,

541
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,320
doing a girls night, if you can't handle that,

542
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,320
like you got bigger fish to fry.

543
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:10,160
Yeah.

544
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,000
Hmm.

545
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,080
Like maybe you go to the therapy.

546
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,240
Am I overreacting to my boyfriend having his mom

547
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:17,880
get my Valentine's gift?

548
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,880
My boyfriend, 17N and me are big on sentimental gifts

549
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:24,600
rather than expensive gifts

550
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,880
since we are young and saving up for college.

551
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:28,600
Because of this, for Valentine's Day,

552
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,400
I got him a picture book of us,

553
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,160
a letter and some small gifts.

554
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,080
I was very surprised with what he got me

555
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,560
because it was bigger than any other previous gift.

556
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,360
However, I was slightly suspicious about the contents.

557
00:26:39,360 --> 00:26:41,640
He got me a weight loss journal.

558
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,480
I'm a healthy weight and have never expressed any urge

559
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,840
to lose weight.

560
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,240
Various chocolate nuts.

561
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,880
He knows I hate nuts.

562
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:51,920
A candle and a stuffed animal.

563
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,160
These ones are normal.

564
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,880
I just assumed the journal and the nuts

565
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,320
were an honest mistake.

566
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,600
He also made me a very nice card

567
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,520
where he cut out construction paper

568
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,480
to make a cute arts and crafts for me,

569
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,960
which was my favorite gift.

570
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,800
When asked about the weight loss journal,

571
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,040
he claimed to not have paid attention when he bought it.

572
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:10,640
Fast forward to recently,

573
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,920
I was playing on his phone because mine was charging.

574
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,800
We have each other's passcodes and are okay

575
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,800
with each other being on the other's phone.

576
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,280
Now, I know it was probably an invasion of privacy,

577
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,880
but I decided to look up my name in his text

578
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,920
to see what he said about me to other people,

579
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,360
just out of curiosity.

580
00:27:26,360 --> 00:27:27,520
That was genius.

581
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,800
I found a conversation with his mother

582
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,840
where he asked her to buy me a gift

583
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,520
the day before Valentine's Day.

584
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,280
She asked what kind of candy I like

585
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,880
and he didn't respond, explaining the nuts.

586
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:42,880
I also found out that she made the card I liked so much.

587
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,240
I completely understand if he couldn't afford

588
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:46,080
to get me anything,

589
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,520
but the fact that he couldn't even bother

590
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:49,920
to go to the store with his mom

591
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,800
to pick out my gifts makes me feel so insulted.

592
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,720
He couldn't even be bothered to make a card for me.

593
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,920
I thought that it was so thoughtful of him

594
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,280
to take the time and effort to do that for me,

595
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,840
but finding out it was all his mother hurt me.

596
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,440
I confronted him about it

597
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,920
and he said that he had procrastinated until February 13th

598
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,080
and he didn't get me anything himself.

599
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,760
He's starting early.

600
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,040
Even though it was a few months ago,

601
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,560
I still feel betrayed and saddened.

602
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:17,600
How old are they?

603
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:18,440
17.

604
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,280
17.

605
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,120
See, here's my thoughts.

606
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:23,320
He's just still too young.

607
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,280
I don't think he's the asshole.

608
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:26,600
I don't know that she's overreacting.

609
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:27,960
Am I overreacting?

610
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,320
Okay, yeah, I think she's overreacting.

611
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:31,440
I think that's a hard word.

612
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,080
I don't know if it's overreacting,

613
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,400
but I do think that she needs to recognize

614
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,920
and know that a boy will be a boy.

615
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,560
That seems very much on character for a 17-year-old little kid.

616
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,800
But she's also a 17-year-old little girl.

617
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,000
But girls are way more mature and responsible

618
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,720
and thoughtful and better than little boys.

619
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,640
I think that's a bunch of bullshit.

620
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,160
Boy, you were 20.

621
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,320
How old? And you said, yeah, I wish you let me sleep.

622
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,560
Huh? On Valentine's Day.

623
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,120
You were 17 and you woke me up at 5.30.

624
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,600
I was not 17.

625
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,360
I was 19.

626
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:07,200
Right.

627
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:08,720
And you're 20-something.

628
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:09,880
That's my point, though.

629
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,040
It's like you...

630
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,120
Yeah, I messed up, but so did you.

631
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,240
Because boys are...

632
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,600
But generally speaking,

633
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,720
girls are better at planning that out.

634
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:22,840
Yeah.

635
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,640
Make a case for the weight loss journal.

636
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:25,480
Let's hear it.

637
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,600
Yeah, this mom...

638
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:27,360
That was pretty bad.

639
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,200
That's like balancing.

640
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:29,440
And that was a girl.

641
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:30,280
That was a lady.

642
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:35,240
A grown woman gave a little 17-year-old girl

643
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:36,320
a weight loss journal.

644
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,360
This mother-in-law needs to teach her something better.

645
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,840
And it just shows how terrible she is

646
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,440
because she's giving her a terrible gift.

647
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,360
That's messed up.

648
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:46,680
That's just like...

649
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:47,840
That's just mom...

650
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,560
That's boy moms.

651
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:50,120
They would...

652
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,160
They do stuff like that because they're like...

653
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,880
They love their son so much

654
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,720
and then there's this other girl in their life.

655
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,200
Like, she probably loved that he gave her that opportunity

656
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,280
so that she could just sabotage.

657
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:01,480
That was...

658
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,480
100%.

659
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:04,120
All right.

660
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:05,360
100%.

661
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:06,600
That was bad.

662
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:07,840
The weight loss journal.

663
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,120
That weight loss journal is bad.

664
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:09,880
Yeah.

665
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:10,880
You don't just do that.

666
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,800
Like, oh my gosh, she's gonna love this.

667
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:13,560
Like, what did you think?

668
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,120
Oh, this is just a daily planner.

669
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,320
And she literally is probably...

670
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,360
And she says, she's like,

671
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,680
I've never struggled my way like...

672
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:21,720
Yeah.

673
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,000
But this girl is kind of pimp, though,

674
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,400
because it's not a fact.

675
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:26,840
The weight loss journal, she just said,

676
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,560
she was like, oh, maybe just thought it was a daily planner.

677
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,200
She's just banged up months later

678
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,960
that Valentine's Day sucked.

679
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,040
And that's the part where I'm like,

680
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,600
okay, she's obviously a little kid because get over it.

681
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,200
Yeah.

682
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,520
Like, I'm just saying, like, a couple months later,

683
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,640
and it's like, you got gifts.

684
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,560
Yeah, she's still struggling.

685
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,240
Your boyfriend is a high school kid.

686
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,280
Like, yeah, he's still gonna have mom help him out

687
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:52,560
with some things occasionally.

688
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,560
Like, the gifts and what the mother-in-law did,

689
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,280
that's a different story.

690
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,400
But like, if she's not banged up about the weight loss thing,

691
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,080
that's the only thing that bears any weight, in my opinion.

692
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,160
Because she made the gift, she made the card,

693
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,800
like whatever, you got like five things

694
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,960
for Valentine's Day and you're a little kid.

695
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,240
Do you guys wanna hear one of the comments?

696
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:13,080
Yes.

697
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:13,920
Well, bad.

698
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:18,000
Foreign cow 1189 said, weight loss journal,

699
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:24,200
bunch of question marks, the gift that all women love.

700
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,080
Facts.

701
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,840
Like, obviously that's a horrible gift.

702
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,360
That's not the mother-in-law.

703
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,960
I thought I was like, is this being sarcastic or serious?

704
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,160
Yes, something's like that.

705
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,000
Okay, yeah.

706
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,600
That would be horrible.

707
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,280
That's a stupid ass gift.

708
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:39,240
It doesn't matter who you are.

709
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,200
A dude doesn't wanna weight loss journal.

710
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,880
Yeah, it's like that just sucks anyways.

711
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,680
Especially for like a romantic holiday.

712
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:47,520
Yeah.

713
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,480
It's like, just get over it.

714
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,480
Is she overreacting?

715
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,960
It's okay to be mad, but a few months later,

716
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,800
it's time to like move on.

717
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,200
Cause like, you could have been broken up

718
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,080
and with a new guy and in love by now,

719
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,800
in high school, like you never know.

720
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:02,640
True that.

721
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:03,600
Definitely.

722
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,040
Okay, so this is from Relationship Advice.

723
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:10,560
And it's, my boyfriend thinks my dad's gifts are creepy.

724
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:11,800
Oh.

725
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,200
Every year for Valentine's Day,

726
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,880
my dad, a 59 male,

727
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,320
Gives slash sends me 23 female flowers

728
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:19,320
and a box of chocolate.

729
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:20,400
He has done this every year

730
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:21,800
since I've been old enough to remember.

731
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,560
He'd always give them to me when I was little,

732
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,600
when we went to college and beyond,

733
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,840
he was, he has them delivered to me.

734
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,440
It's just a tradition for us.

735
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:30,280
I think it's sweet.

736
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,440
I grew up in a really tight knit close family.

737
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,120
I started dating my boyfriend, Mark, 25 male,

738
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,960
a little over a year ago.

739
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:38,000
Last Valentine's Day,

740
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,920
I got the usual delivery from my dad.

741
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:40,960
Mark saw and said,

742
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:42,720
Oh, your dad sent those?

743
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:43,600
Oh, okay.

744
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:44,560
And then that was it.

745
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,520
Fast forward to this year last night,

746
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,000
Mark and I were discussing our Valentine's Day plans

747
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:49,840
for this year.

748
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,360
Like what restaurant we should go to.

749
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,920
And he had a passing comment about hoping

750
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:58,000
I don't get any creepy gifts in the mail this year.

751
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,160
I was confused and asked him what he meant.

752
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,200
He said, you know how you got that stuff

753
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,240
from your dad last year.

754
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,440
It's creepy for a dad to be sending his adult daughter

755
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:07,960
Valentine's Day gifts.

756
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,080
I was taken back because it's not like my dad

757
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,120
had sent me lingerie or something.

758
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:13,920
It was just flowers and some chocolate.

759
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,280
I tried explaining to Mark that this is a tradition

760
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,920
and I've always shared with my dad.

761
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,600
He stands firm that it's creepy and weird.

762
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,240
And he said he asked his friends

763
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,200
and they thought it was weird too.

764
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,200
I tried to let it go,

765
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,440
but it was, it has been bothering me.

766
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,360
One, I have never heard these kinds of negative comments

767
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:31,440
from Mark before.

768
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,480
And I'm not sure whether it's a red flag.

769
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,480
I have never been in a serious relationship before

770
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:37,960
and I'm still figuring it out.

771
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,640
Two, my dad's delivery comes this month.

772
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,680
I don't want Mark to feel uncomfortable.

773
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,560
Three, is it actually creepy for my dad

774
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:45,880
to be sending this stuff?

775
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,440
I've never found it so,

776
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,480
but I would like to hear other perspectives.

777
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:50,320
Thanks.

778
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:52,520
That guy sucks.

779
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:53,960
He does suck.

780
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,640
What's his name, Mark?

781
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:56,480
Mark.

782
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,960
Yeah, Mark can go freaking poop

783
00:33:59,960 --> 00:34:01,680
and then throw it down his throat.

784
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:03,840
He wrote it.

785
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:04,920
This is the dude.

786
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,080
Sounds like you hate him.

787
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,000
Yeah, I do.

788
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,320
Like Mark is, Mark is a bad guy.

789
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:11,720
Cause I say it's about to be a girl dad.

790
00:34:11,720 --> 00:34:12,560
So he's like,

791
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:13,400
Oh yeah, he knows.

792
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,440
No, that's so messed up.

793
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,160
That's, you can't do that.

794
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:18,120
That's like, yeah.

795
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,440
So this is weird

796
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,440
because this is the first time this has happened.

797
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,760
My brain melted when you started reading this story

798
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,680
cause I've come across this story before.

799
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:26,520
Oh really?

800
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:27,360
For a different episode.

801
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,720
And I was like the first, a minute of it,

802
00:34:29,720 --> 00:34:30,560
I was thinking,

803
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,600
did I read this already on the podcast?

804
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,000
And obviously you guys didn't recognize it.

805
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,360
So I didn't, but I 100% have read the story.

806
00:34:38,240 --> 00:34:39,480
You're not fake.

807
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,680
And yeah, I cannot believe.

808
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,680
I like what type of trauma does Mark have to have

809
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,080
to think that that's creepy?

810
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:48,920
Yeah.

811
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:49,760
Right.

812
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,560
Because that is so, that's so tender.

813
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:52,400
That's so sweet.

814
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:53,240
It's so sweet.

815
00:34:53,240 --> 00:34:54,080
That's goals.

816
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:54,920
Like literally.

817
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:55,760
Goals.

818
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:56,600
Goals.

819
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:57,440
100%.

820
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,360
Like the dad is still like, this is about love.

821
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,640
I love my daughter.

822
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:01,480
Yes.

823
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,120
Here's some chocolate and flowers.

824
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:07,120
No, and that's how, like he wants the person

825
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,080
that she falls in love with to treat her the same way.

826
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,320
Like he's just showing her how she deserves to be treated.

827
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,960
Then it broke my heart to feel like she's now questioning

828
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,280
like, wait, is this creepy?

829
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,920
Like does anyone else think this is?

830
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,760
Like because that's such a special memory and bond

831
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,400
that she has with her dad.

832
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,200
Then it liked to think she, what if she's still with Mark?

833
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,320
You know, like what if they don't actually break up?

834
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,280
Wait, but my dad used to literally do this.

835
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,240
He would always bring flowers to school.

836
00:35:33,240 --> 00:35:36,360
Like if it was on like a school day, like he would always,

837
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:37,920
we would always get called to the office

838
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,560
and there'd always be like a little bouquet of flowers

839
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,480
for each of us girls.

840
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,120
I know he doesn't do it anymore,

841
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,880
but and it always came with like, you know,

842
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,640
like the like little card, you know?

843
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,240
And like I have like, I'm pretty sure I have all of them.

844
00:35:53,240 --> 00:35:55,080
Like somewhere in like a box somewhere,

845
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:56,880
but I just always loved it.

846
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,920
So I'm like, girl dads are the best.

847
00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:00,760
Just saying.

848
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,080
So there is an update.

849
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,160
So they did end up breaking up.

850
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:06,000
She said, we broke up.

851
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,680
I've tried, I tried having a legitimate conversation

852
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,480
with Mark about why he found the gifts creepy.

853
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,320
He is close with his family.

854
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,440
They show a regular amount of affection

855
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,160
for close, for a close American family.

856
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,720
So it wasn't that he could not articulate to me

857
00:36:20,720 --> 00:36:22,000
why he found it creepy.

858
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,600
He just kept saying it made him uneasy.

859
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,200
No further explanation.

860
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,240
This, there is only so much I can do regarding that.

861
00:36:29,240 --> 00:36:31,800
So I gave up on trying to find the root of the issue.

862
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,960
He originally said he talked to his friends about it

863
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,400
and they all found it weird.

864
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,040
Yeah, he never did that.

865
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:38,800
He admitted he made it up.

866
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,800
Cause I'm like, if he really talked,

867
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,560
like they would have been like, dude, you're so dumb.

868
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,040
He also confessed he cheated on me with two different girls,

869
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,360
which took me by complete surprise.

870
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,520
I got tested, I got tested all is fine in that regard.

871
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:53,680
So yeah, I ended it.

872
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,360
He begged me this day and I was, and said I was the one.

873
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:58,200
I refused.

874
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,760
I said something along the lines of you cheated on me,

875
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,640
you lied to me and we have different core family values.

876
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,200
When he realized I wasn't coming back,

877
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,680
he told everyone I cheated on him.

878
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,480
My friends were furious on my behalf,

879
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,200
wanting to give me a piece of their minds,

880
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,360
but I told them I don't want to deal with him ever again.

881
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,280
I am so done.

882
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:16,360
I just don't care anymore.

883
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,200
He's blocked.

884
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,280
So basically I have no idea what his problem is

885
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,560
with the gift was, but good riddance.

886
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,680
And for everyone who said I had a good dad, trust me,

887
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,080
I know and I'm so lucky.

888
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,160
I'm going to visit him next month and can't wait.

889
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:28,520
Thank you all.

890
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:29,680
Oh my gosh, it's crazy.

891
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:31,920
Cause when you first started talking about the update,

892
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,600
I was thinking, oh my gosh,

893
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,400
she probably was literally projecting

894
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,240
that he's never going to be that for her.

895
00:37:38,240 --> 00:37:40,680
Like the dad's way better than him.

896
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,320
And then you're like, he's cheating.

897
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:43,640
And I'm like, oh my gosh.

898
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:44,480
It all makes sense.

899
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:45,320
It all makes sense.

900
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,080
He was probably just jealous.

901
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:47,920
Yes.

902
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,360
He loves the relationship that she has with her dad.

903
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,200
Yes.

904
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,480
And he just probably doesn't have that.

905
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:55,320
Yeah, he probably felt bad

906
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:56,640
cause he'd probably cheated on her.

907
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,880
And then her dad is sending her something.

908
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,240
He's like, oh, that's weird.

909
00:38:01,240 --> 00:38:03,800
But also me being a girl, I think it wasn't weird.

910
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,120
Yeah, I was just saying.

911
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,520
Why does he have any respect for you?

912
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:08,360
I don't get it.

913
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:09,200
Yeah.

914
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,520
Does he love you now that you're over 18?

915
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,240
Is that like real love or?

916
00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:16,960
Just thinking how cool is it that this guy,

917
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,400
like whether she was single,

918
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,280
she's been dating this guy for a year,

919
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,200
but like he sent her the flowers and the chocolates

920
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,480
when she was single too.

921
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,800
Cause they like, they live far apart, right?

922
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,320
So like this was just their normal tradition.

923
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,240
He doesn't know if Mark's going to stick around

924
00:38:31,240 --> 00:38:32,080
for the longterm.

925
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,840
If he's just going to go bang another girl like he did.

926
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,120
Like what a guy just, just holding down the fort

927
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,440
for his daughter.

928
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,640
And for a second there, I was so lost.

929
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,040
I'm like, why is the cheating?

930
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,640
Like, huh?

931
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,400
What happened here with like, oh yeah, by the way,

932
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,520
not only did I not figure out why he had a problem

933
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,800
with this, but he banged two other girls.

934
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,400
So we broke up.

935
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:56,840
It's like, not the update I was expecting, but.

936
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,160
He's the ultimate dirt bag.

937
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,680
But glad she found out so she could just fricking leave

938
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,920
and not feel bad about her dad being sweet.

939
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:04,200
Yeah.

940
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:05,680
I cannot wrap my head around this.

941
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,800
I'm just thinking, he's like, yeah, no, seriously,

942
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:08,760
your dad's a creep.

943
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:09,600
It's weird.

944
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,000
And I had sex with two other girls.

945
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,000
And I made it up that I didn't talk to my friends.

946
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,560
Because yeah, he's like, you know,

947
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,880
the truth is that I lied and I've lied about other stuff,

948
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,640
but your dad's still weird.

949
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,480
Like, how did this?

950
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:21,320
Yeah.

951
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:22,160
It's so weird.

952
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,280
I would really love to know like, his actual genuine,

953
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,520
like why he thought that that was weird.

954
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:33,520
So like, us going to that extent for Valentine's Day,

955
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,400
I used to get in trouble with the boys.

956
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,080
Like the homies would be like, dude.

957
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:38,920
Why are you doing this?

958
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,480
What are you doing, bro?

959
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:41,320
Really?

960
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:42,520
Like you're making us all look bad.

961
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,000
Two separate ones in particular.

962
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,080
We'll not name names.

963
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:46,920
Yeah.

964
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,640
But like, they're like, yeah, be like.

965
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,320
Cause their wives would be upset with them.

966
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,040
Cause they would see what Joe did for me.

967
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:56,880
Well, they're like, dude.

968
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,120
Level up, level up, level up.

969
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,640

Or me.

983
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:28,880

Internet frenzies.
