Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Alrighty. Alrighty, everybody. Welcome to another episode of the Human Podcast.
I am your host, Alex. A truck. As always, I'm here with my wife.
Not a truck driver on purpose.
Well, also, getting a CDL at this point is, like, impossible for you, so.
[00:00:22] Speaker B: Of course it's impossible. I probably could.
[00:00:24] Speaker C: How many car accidents have you been in?
[00:00:28] Speaker A: Her latest one was getting her mirror busted off of her car in a Trader Joe's parking lot.
[00:00:33] Speaker B: That was not my fault.
[00:00:35] Speaker A: Doesn't matter.
[00:00:36] Speaker C: Why isn't it.
[00:00:37] Speaker B: Why is it a car crash?
[00:00:40] Speaker A: Did a car crash into your car?
[00:00:42] Speaker B: I wasn't there when it happened. I don't know.
[00:00:45] Speaker A: Yeah. No. A fucking US Forest Service crashed into my truck while it was parked. And I was inside, and they had another person guiding them backwards because it's a steep parking lot and he still hit my fucking truck.
[00:01:06] Speaker B: That's embarrassing.
[00:01:08] Speaker A: And so, like, I'm inside getting a check at one of my customers, and someone comes inside is like, hey, you got hit? I'm like, what?
I'm like, well, I'm gonna finish getting my check. And I. I finished getting my check. And I'm like, all right, let me go out there and just like, this dumbass Forest Service government workers, like, your car or your truck? And I'm like. I go over and look at him like, you did. You absolutely did. Like that. That's. That's a little bit of damage.
Do you have insurance? He's like, no.
[00:01:44] Speaker B: I'm like, how does he not have insurance?
[00:01:47] Speaker A: I don't know. Like, I. I got all the information from him. I got his ID and all that. Dumbass. It's not even the first time a parked truck of mine has been hit by somebody else.
[00:01:58] Speaker B: People are stupid.
I love those stupid people.
[00:02:01] Speaker A: No, it's other people in big vehicles that don't know how to drive it.
Like, I remember one time I was in the back of my truck unloading fucking tires. And our competitor, like. Like, the. Another company that also delivers tires. I see him come and I'm like, there's not enough room for him. He's definitely going to back up. And I see him just go for it. I'm like, you're such a dumb fucking idiot. But, you know. You know, go off king. And then I feel my entire truck shift. Like, boom, boom. When I nearly fall over, like, what the fuck? I jump out of the truck, pissed off, you know, I see him, like, trying to, like, back up, and I'm like, dude, what the fuck? You know? He's like, sorry.
I'm like, you saw that it was fucking tight. You should have just sat there and waited your fucking turn. You should have just sat in the fucking giant Walmart parking lot and waited your fucking turn, you dumbass idiot.
[00:03:02] Speaker B: You deliver tires to Walmart?
[00:03:04] Speaker A: No. Oh, I delivered tires to a business close to a Walmart.
[00:03:09] Speaker B: Oh.
[00:03:10] Speaker A: And yeah, so you know how like sometimes Walmarts will have other businesses in like the parking lot.
Like, like how we have like a, you know, break place like by our Walmart.
We, we have a mechanic shop, the Walmart on Powers.
[00:03:32] Speaker B: Businesses are always besides other businesses.
[00:03:34] Speaker A: Not always.
But yeah, I mean, I, I'm just saying. Yes, people do hit parked cars and they never want to take responsibility for that. They just drive the away.
[00:03:47] Speaker B: Well, yeah, cuz it's embarrassing.
[00:03:50] Speaker A: It's like, yeah, but if you do a hit and run, I do believe it is a felony.
So it's like, hey, guess what? You immediately got yourself a felony charge.
[00:04:00] Speaker B: For you hit a parked car. How long do I have to wait around before I'm like, okay, yeah, it's.
[00:04:05] Speaker A: Been like, you can put it, you can put a note underneath the windshield, you can put it, you can take pictures, take a note and then, you know, they can, you know, get in contact with you as long as you give a way to get in contact with you and make an earnest effort, you know, cool. But if they don't, you know, give a shit, then whatever, you know, if they never, like, if they wait too long to get in contact with you, then it's like, dude, that, that's on you, bud. Yeah, it's like, you know, you waited three months to get in contact with me now. Yeah, go yourself.
You should have got in touch with me like right away. Yeah, I mean if you want, you can call the cops and have the cops come out and sort it all out.
But you know, usually they don't come out. Usually they don't give a, like, oh, you hit a car in a parking lot, don't call us again.
I, I've never had the cops come out for that.
I'm, I'm sure like my boss wants that to happen. But I'm like, dude, I don't have time to sit here and wait three hours for the cops to maybe show up and then call me back and make, yeah, just do an online report, bud. We're too good.
[00:05:23] Speaker B: That count as your work hours too?
[00:05:25] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:05:25] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah, that's dumb.
[00:05:27] Speaker A: So that's, that's why I don't do that.
But yes, yes. My, my wife is a, a terrible Driver. And we have Courtney over there.
[00:05:38] Speaker B: I am a terrible driver.
[00:05:39] Speaker C: I'm not a terrible driver.
[00:05:41] Speaker A: You. You're not? Oh, you. You sound like you're underwater now.
[00:05:44] Speaker C: Really?
[00:05:45] Speaker A: For a second there.
[00:05:47] Speaker B: Oh, okay.
[00:05:48] Speaker C: I was leaning on the ear. I'm gonna take the clip off.
I'm leaning back. And I was leaning to the side because of it.
[00:05:57] Speaker A: I. I mean, you know, Courtney does, like, attract, like, bad drivers, like T boner, but, you know, that. That. That's not her fault.
[00:06:06] Speaker C: That was so annoying.
[00:06:07] Speaker B: That was, like, the worst thing ever.
[00:06:09] Speaker A: I know. It was so inconvenient.
[00:06:11] Speaker C: Was a good friend, and she helped me cover, like, a month's rent and then the next month, like, some of the bills. Yeah, it was. And I paid her back out of my settlement.
[00:06:22] Speaker B: You did?
[00:06:23] Speaker C: Yeah. And it was a nice chunk of change because then you didn't have to work to actually save that money. You actually had it to do stuff.
[00:06:31] Speaker B: Yeah.
It wasn't worth it, though. Courtney, you should have been at my wedding.
[00:06:37] Speaker C: I know. I'm so upset.
That's like, the one thing that I hated, that I wasn't able to go to your wedding.
[00:06:46] Speaker A: Should have sued them harder. Like, I'm not able to go to my friend's wedding. I want more money for my pain and suffering.
But I mean, your happens, you know, like. Like just the other day, like. Like the turkey took out my fucking mirror.
Yeah. I'm just driving down 160 Turkey and just, you know, smokes it. I didn't even get to see the video because I didn't give a shit. I'm like, I lived it. I'm like, whatever.
Turkey's still there on the side of 160.
[00:07:20] Speaker B: Wait, it was caught on video?
[00:07:21] Speaker A: Yeah, of course.
[00:07:22] Speaker B: And you didn't show me that My.
[00:07:24] Speaker A: Work has a video.
I don't have the video. My work has a video. I'm not gonna sit there and film every, you know, video they show me. I mean, they show me a lot of videos. Like, hey, look, here's the time that you didn't smoke an entire pack of deer. I'm like, yeah. I mean, I'd love to, but, like, they're all big.
[00:07:46] Speaker C: Oh, my gosh.
[00:07:47] Speaker A: Like, congratulations on, you know, not dying. Here. Here's like, power points or whatever the, know, dumb reward currency we have, you know, like that. That. That's what I hate is, like, we had, like, a good currency going on, like a reward currency at my work.
[00:08:05] Speaker B: Uhhuh.
[00:08:06] Speaker A: Called power points. And I'm like, yeah. And I was saving them Up. Cuz like the next level up was actually good.
[00:08:13] Speaker B: Uhhuh.
[00:08:14] Speaker A: And then they're like, we're getting rid of that now. We're going to rave power, like rave points or whatever.
I'm like, okay, so does like my points like transfer over? Like no, let's use it or lose it. And so I had to use all my points and I like got like a jacket. I got the, I think the humidifier for you.
[00:08:36] Speaker B: Yeah, you did get me a humidifier. Is that also when you got that tent?
[00:08:39] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:08:39] Speaker B: Cuz the tent's dope. Yeah, like it's a nice tent.
[00:08:43] Speaker A: But you could see like the next level up was some good.
Like I got a car, heart jacket, a tent and you know, humidifier tent's dope.
[00:08:53] Speaker B: It's big as.
[00:08:54] Speaker A: I think you got something else too. But like, like the next level up was like, you know, TVs and video game consoles and like, like you know, diamond rings like that.
But no, now I have these dumb points that I don't earn at all.
Like yeah, like if you're here, you earn. I'm like, I'm a truck driver. I don't ever hear you guys suck.
[00:09:30] Speaker B: Your company does suck.
[00:09:32] Speaker A: I mean like it's just like an extra little added bonus and I don't really give that much of a about it.
Like you know, like imagine like you, you find out that your company has like a little like party that you could get if you earned like a certain amount of money.
[00:09:55] Speaker B: Yeah, our corporate does that.
We can never meet them because they, they set standards that we are unable to achieve and we're punished for it.
[00:10:08] Speaker A: See like that, that's my favorite part about like being at the level of my company that I'm at is I look at them in their eyes and I dare them to fire me.
I double dog dare them.
I'm like, I'll walk. I'll walk and take like five of your employees with me and you will not be able to replace them and it will hurt your budget.
And they know I can do this. They know I can, you know, convince like the rest of us to just go like, like in fact like I just broke like my work phone. Like I shattered the screen and I put tape over the top of it. So I'm like, it's good now. And I went in and told my boss, I'm like, hey boss. Like I shattered my work screen.
He's like, well, there's nothing I can do for you. And he shows me like two other worse off phones.
You know, ones are completely smoked. I'm like, oh, well, like this will work. He's like, yeah, just see what you can do. I'm like, all right, cool.
And I like, I just go into the office and I just put tape over it and it looks terrible. And I'm going to get some for it on Monday.
Most definitely. Like, all my customers, like my friends, so they're gonna like clown me for it. They're like, oh, what happened to your phone, you fucking fed ass? Sit on it or something like, ah.
But like, they don't care.
[00:11:40] Speaker B: There's like, how does your phone screen get shattered?
[00:11:45] Speaker A: What's hilarious is I get to my first stop on Friday morning and I had my phone in my sweatshirt pocket. Like I had like a little zip up jacket, put it in the pocket. And I didn't have the lights on in the back of my truck. So I get up there and I trip on a tire immediately where they shouldn't be.
And the phone just goes flying out of my pocket and lands, you know, and it's like a three foot drop. Just boop. It just hits the ground.
[00:12:13] Speaker B: And like, like when your phone, when your phone drops and the screen shatters, like you know it, like you intrinsically know, like, oh shit, yeah.
[00:12:20] Speaker A: No, no, I didn't know it. I picked it up.
[00:12:22] Speaker B: You didn't get that feeling?
[00:12:23] Speaker A: No, I didn't care. I, I hate it. Most of my stress and my job is from that phone.
Like just from the technology that they force us to use.
That is where my stress level comes from. Other than that, you know, driving a truck, easy. Other than, you know, dumb dip shits on the road, the stress levels from the phone I have to use and them loading my truck wrong, that's all the stress. If my phone worked, if people were good drivers and my truck was loaded correctly, every day job would be a breeze. I'd love it.
It'd be too easy.
The easiest money you can ever make.
But no, I have to sit here and deal with incompetence day after day and I'm just, oh, hating life.
Like, in fact, sober October is done. I am completely done with sober October. I did, I did the 31 days of fucking dead of October. No alcohol, no drugs. Good for me. Never again.
Like the lessons I have learned from sober October is. It's a lame thing to do.
Like, if you, you know, want to, you know, get your life better, you know, if you're like, I'm an alcoholic, just stop drinking alcohol or drink it less, you know, like I have A dui. I need to stop drinking. Drink less do. You don't have to cut it out. Like, just don't drink a handle a night.
Like, if you have a serious problem, you know, cut back. Don't cut out.
Yeah, that, that, that's the, that's the lesson I learned. I'm never doing any of these, you know, challenges ever again.
Like, like, no fap. November is this month I off.
Yeah. I'm not doing that horseshit.
[00:14:27] Speaker B: So does no FAP only apply to you, but if I jack you off, does that interfere with it?
[00:14:32] Speaker A: Anything, Any coming for the entire month?
[00:14:35] Speaker B: Oh, well, then you've already lost that.
[00:14:36] Speaker A: Yeah, of course.
Like, I, I lost, like, midnight into, like, October. I'm like, and happy November. You know, Blow my load. Fine.
But, yeah, it's a dumb thing to do.
And every day I wanted, like, I got back, and I'm like, I want to drink. Just dumb incompetence makes me want to drink. I'm like, I, I see why, like, parents should be more alcoholics. Like, anytime I see, you know, a parent out there just dealing with, like, a shitty child, I'm like, you should be allowed. You should get a free bar tab.
You should be able to go out to the bar and drink for free, you know, because you have a shitty kid, you know, like, Courtney, do you, do you drink at all?
[00:15:35] Speaker C: Yeah, but I can't really drink a lot because it hurts.
[00:15:41] Speaker A: You're, you're like Johnny Cash. Anytime you have a drink, you're like, I hurt myself today.
Yeah, I, I, I love how no one understands that reference.
Johnny Cash did a cover of Nine Inch Nails Hurt, you know, right before he died.
And it's, it's probably, like, one of his best works because he was like, old.
Does no one here listen to Johnny Cash?
[00:16:16] Speaker C: I do. I just don't get it.
[00:16:22] Speaker A: He killed his brother.
He did, yes.
On a table saw.
[00:16:30] Speaker B: On purpose.
[00:16:32] Speaker A: An accident.
[00:16:34] Speaker B: Okay, so that's. Okay.
[00:16:35] Speaker A: Like, when he was.
[00:16:36] Speaker B: So that's, like, worse.
[00:16:38] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, when he was a kid, he.
[00:16:39] Speaker B: Like, it's worse when it's on accident. Right? Like, I'm not wrong in that, in thinking that.
[00:16:44] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, when you accidentally break your phone screen versus when you purposely broke. Break your phone screen.
[00:16:49] Speaker B: Yeah, it's worse.
[00:16:52] Speaker A: Like, like, if you ever watch the story of, like, Dewey Cox, like, walk Hard like that's Johnny Cash.
They just did, like, a parody of it. And, like, they have, like, a machete fight in the middle of it. He's like, you cut me in half real bad. Dewey, man, if I. If I had, like, guy friends, like, they would understand.
Like. Like, women, like, they grew up isolated.
[00:17:21] Speaker B: From the outside world until it was 16.
[00:17:24] Speaker A: Yeah, the. The movie came out, like, five years ago.
No, the movie came out while you were living with me.
[00:17:33] Speaker B: It did?
[00:17:34] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:17:36] Speaker B: So you've watched more than one movie about Johnny Cash?
[00:17:39] Speaker A: It's not. It's not exactly a movie about Johnny Cash.
Walk Hard, the Story of Dewey Cox.
Yeah.
[00:17:50] Speaker B: When did it come out?
[00:17:51] Speaker A: 2007.
[00:17:53] Speaker B: Okay, yeah, that's more than just a few years ago, babe.
[00:17:56] Speaker A: That's just.
[00:17:57] Speaker B: That is a very long time ago.
[00:17:59] Speaker A: Almost yesterday.
[00:18:01] Speaker B: It is not, babe. But don't forget, we're getting old.
[00:18:07] Speaker A: Yeah. We walked into Target today.
We saw, like, this millennial game, and it's like, you know, what is this? And it shows, like, an. You know, a projector screen you put, like, the transparent sheets on. I'm like, I hate this.
I'm like, that. That. That's. No, I guarantee you that does not exist anymore.
[00:18:29] Speaker B: Of course. Even I know what that is.
[00:18:33] Speaker A: What?
[00:18:34] Speaker B: Give me.
[00:18:38] Speaker A: All right, let me.
My alcoholic wife that did not participate in Sober October, wants her beer.
[00:18:46] Speaker B: You did not ask me to.
[00:18:48] Speaker A: No.
[00:18:48] Speaker B: Had you asked, I still would have said no, though. I'm not gonna lie.
[00:18:52] Speaker A: No. That's dumb as hell.
[00:18:53] Speaker B: It is. I am very impressed that you stuck to it. And it is not dumb at all.
It's an accomplishment.
And this is coming from someone who is a. Who is a functional alcoholic. So how long ago was 2007?
[00:19:12] Speaker A: Babe, it was, like, three years ago. I'm sure.
I was in high school. That was like.
[00:19:24] Speaker B: Yes, you were in high school two years ago.
[00:19:26] Speaker A: That was not. That was not that long ago. I'm not that old.
[00:19:36] Speaker B: We were in our own time sector, and it is delightful.
[00:19:41] Speaker A: Ah. Hurts my soul every time. I, like, I. I, like, realize, like, you know, anytime, like, I see, like, a kid that's, like, drinking, and I'm like, ah. When were you born? Like, 2001. And I want to hit them in their face like. Like there's nothing they did. They didn't do a damn thing to deserve getting hit in the face. I just, like. I want to lash out because I'm like, I remember 2001. I was there, motherfucker. The Twin Towers coming down. I remember.
[00:20:18] Speaker B: But is it important? 911 was an inside job, so it's not important. It's just a Zimmerman note all over again.
[00:20:25] Speaker A: Technically, it was just inside the airplane job, and then they got inside the building job.
[00:20:33] Speaker B: You've done better Work.
[00:20:34] Speaker C: I feel like there was something wrong with the construction and they covered it up and that's why it went so bad.
[00:20:42] Speaker A: I guarantee you. It was just like.
It was like the Titanic all over again. Like, I feel like, because the Titanic and the Olympia were like sister ships, you know, built identically.
And there is a conspiracy theory that they took all of the Olympias and put it on, like, the Titanic and all the Titanics and put it on the Olympia and then sent out the old rundown Olympia, you know, out to the ocean to get sunk for insurance money.
[00:21:26] Speaker C: Wow.
Because some messed up.
[00:21:32] Speaker A: I mean, look it, look it up. It is a pretty rock solid. Like, it's too late to do anything now.
[00:21:40] Speaker B: Observe. But it's intriguing.
[00:21:42] Speaker A: But like that. That's like the crime of the century. I'm like, holy. You killed a bunch of people for money.
And then like, I look over at the government, I'm like, oh, yeah, you do that too.
[00:21:55] Speaker B: Hey, they also made a great movie out of it.
[00:21:57] Speaker A: So it was an okay movie. The tit.
[00:22:00] Speaker B: I'm saying this because I've never seen it. I just know it's still prevalent in today's nomenclature. So it's. It's done its job.
[00:22:09] Speaker A: You want to know why? The tit scene. That's it.
[00:22:12] Speaker B: Is it a good tit scene?
[00:22:16] Speaker A: No, it's like, pretty much it's a rich girl, like, going through Jack's, like, sketchbook and it's a bunch of like French ladies that are topless and nude.
[00:22:30] Speaker B: Wait, is this where the meme comes from?
[00:22:33] Speaker A: Charming. Like one of your French girls, Jack. Yeah.
[00:22:35] Speaker B: What.
[00:22:37] Speaker A: Titanic nude scene?
[00:22:40] Speaker C: Yeah.
You don't remember that?
[00:22:44] Speaker B: I've never seen the Titanic.
[00:22:47] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, you have. You forgot.
[00:22:51] Speaker A: Oh, I mean, yeah. Like this is. Oh, and more, you know, she comes in like this.
Yeah. Spins her little dumbass.
Let me share the screen with.
[00:23:07] Speaker B: What do you mean, the spin things? Like the best part so far. You have to create the atmosphere.
[00:23:16] Speaker A: There we go.
[00:23:19] Speaker B: Her hair is so nice.
[00:23:23] Speaker A: I mean, she pays them customer.
[00:23:27] Speaker B: I expect to get what I want.
[00:23:30] Speaker A: And she has like a gaudy ass necklace.
[00:23:34] Speaker C: Yeah. That's like the whole thing is about the freaking necklace because it's a big ass diamond.
[00:23:44] Speaker B: I actually quit to see tits.
[00:23:46] Speaker A: Yes, you actually see tits.
[00:23:47] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:23:49] Speaker C: Yeah. Can you not see her pull off the robe?
[00:23:53] Speaker B: There was no nipple, so it doesn't count.
[00:23:55] Speaker A: You see the nipple when you did right there.
[00:23:58] Speaker B: Right there. Oh, yeah.
[00:24:04] Speaker A: Tell me when it looks right. Put your arm back the way it was.
Yeah, I mean, it's. It's a great face there.
Yeah. Just.
[00:24:17] Speaker B: Yeah, it's almost. Okay. I'm sorry, but this scene's. This seems kind of cute.
[00:24:22] Speaker A: Yeah, we were.
[00:24:24] Speaker B: It's cute.
[00:24:25] Speaker A: Us as young men were beating our dicks to this. You were beating our dicks? Holy. Were we ever.
And then, you know, he, like, does like, the whole thing.
Yeah, they do, like, a little piano thing.
[00:24:45] Speaker B: Ah, the moving music.
[00:24:47] Speaker A: Serious.
[00:24:50] Speaker B: This is cute.
[00:24:54] Speaker C: Yep.
[00:24:55] Speaker A: Yeah. She wants to fuck him bad. And they get.
[00:24:57] Speaker B: Oh, my God. And even he gets a hair flip.
[00:25:01] Speaker A: Yeah, of course.
[00:25:04] Speaker B: Babe. Do you think it's sexy when I flip my hair?
[00:25:07] Speaker A: Do you flip your hair?
I have never noticed.
[00:25:12] Speaker B: What do you mean you've never noticed me flip my hair?
[00:25:15] Speaker A: Never noticed.
[00:25:16] Speaker B: Oh, my God.
[00:25:17] Speaker C: You don't have a lot of hair.
[00:25:19] Speaker B: Well, this is true. I just make the hand motion.
[00:25:23] Speaker A: Yeah. And they just have, like, the Titanic. Yes. Little nipple.
[00:25:28] Speaker C: So basically, that actually is one of the things that they supposedly unearthed first in the movie, because they saw in the safe that was supposed to have that necklace.
[00:25:41] Speaker A: Yeah. She threw the necklace into the ocean at the end.
[00:25:44] Speaker B: Okay, so it's Jack, like a real person or not?
[00:25:47] Speaker C: No.
[00:25:48] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:25:48] Speaker A: No, it's a fucking whole ass. Dumb.
[00:25:51] Speaker B: Well, no, like, he's like, her coping mechanism for the trauma she went through, Right?
[00:25:55] Speaker A: Well, pretty much. Her. Her husband, I think, like, husband to be. Or either husband was, like, really abusive.
[00:26:05] Speaker B: Oh, great.
[00:26:06] Speaker A: So, you know, she finds, like, this, like, you know, kind of stowaway boy that's, like, not supposed to be there, and she, you know, gives him a bunch of clothes and helps him fit in and they introduces them.
[00:26:19] Speaker C: And, you know, he wasn't really abusive. Like, he hit her that one time, but it's because she was blatantly seeing someone else right in front of him.
[00:26:31] Speaker B: There is no excuse for physical violence.
[00:26:34] Speaker A: I mean, if you. Yeah, she's cheating on you, but.
Oh, I'm like, what is that sound?
[00:26:42] Speaker B: It's my new toy.
[00:26:45] Speaker A: I mean, speak. Speaking of, like, Titanic getting into, like, one of the stories, Brazilian influencers drown after refusing life jackets.
[00:26:57] Speaker B: That sounds about right.
[00:26:59] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm, like, dumb.
[00:27:01] Speaker A: Yeah. People that are like, you know, I. I'm gonna be, you know, an influencer on Instagram. No one gives a shit, but Aline, Tamara.
Jesus Christ, these Spanish people have too many goddamn names.
[00:27:19] Speaker B: Oh, it's beautiful. There's so many fucking syllables.
[00:27:28] Speaker A: Aline, Tamara, Marina de As, 37 years old. And Beatrice, 27 years old. Yeah, I'm not even. You. I'm not. Not saying you're. They reportedly drowned after Attending a luxury yacht party after off of Sao Paulo's picturesque coastline. God, I hate it when, like, it's just words I cannot say.
[00:28:00] Speaker B: Why use other people's languages?
[00:28:03] Speaker A: I mean, I should learn Spanish. Like, I go to Center Colorado all the time and everyone out there speaks fluent Spanish. I should learn, you know, that way, like, when people speak Spanish to my face, I can make, you know, hola, Coma stars, Miente. You know, all that bullshit. I feel like. Courtney, do you speak Spanish?
[00:28:23] Speaker C: A little bit like I used to, but I not. Not anymore.
[00:28:33] Speaker A: But. According to local reports, rough waters and crowded vessel added to risks for a late night journey. Moline and Beatrice, along with five others, climbed to a small speedboat with a capacity for only five passengers. Witnesses said the two women, eager to keep the evening's glow intact. Report reportedly decline life jackets. Fearing they'd intervene with their tans and the selfies that they had captured the joy during the joyful evening.
Some didn't want to wear the life jackets because they were taking selfies. Duh.
So, yeah, they had to leave. And then they, I guess, fell off the little speedboat and died.
[00:29:18] Speaker B: Stupid. People should take themselves out of the gene pool. They're just doing their civic duty.
[00:29:23] Speaker A: It's called fuck around. Find out again.
[00:29:26] Speaker B: Civic duty.
I don't want to end up in idiocracy, okay? I just. I don't want to end there. Like, it's embarrassing.
[00:29:34] Speaker A: Already here.
[00:29:35] Speaker C: I know.
[00:29:36] Speaker B: We're already here. People wear Crocs.
[00:29:38] Speaker C: God.
[00:29:41] Speaker A: Is there something wrong with Crocs?
[00:29:43] Speaker B: There's everything wrong with Crocs.
[00:29:46] Speaker A: I mean, like, if I would wear crocs.
[00:29:50] Speaker B: You h. Do you have a pair of crocs?
[00:29:52] Speaker A: Not at all.
[00:29:53] Speaker B: No, exactly.
[00:29:55] Speaker A: I wear boots. I wear, you know, full boots all the goddamn 13. 1313. Yeah.
You know, it's. It's always boots, boots, boots, and I love my boots.
[00:30:12] Speaker B: If you were Crocs, I wouldn't be with you, Just so you know.
[00:30:16] Speaker C: You wouldn't be with him?
[00:30:18] Speaker A: No, I mean, anytime I get like, crocs and clogs.
[00:30:24] Speaker B: Like, what about Birkenstocks? Courtney likes Birkenstocks. Therefore, they're okay because she's my best friend.
[00:30:31] Speaker C: I know. I don't really like. There's. They. They're okay, but they're so comfy. They're comfy for my feet.
[00:30:38] Speaker B: That's all that matters.
[00:30:40] Speaker C: Thinking about trying Crocs.
[00:30:42] Speaker A: I mean, like, here's one thing that I do hate is, like, when dudes have, like, nasty looking toenails and nasty looking toes. Like wearing open toed anything or going barefoot is unacceptable. Like fucking, you know, get like.
[00:31:00] Speaker B: So you're judging other dudes based on their toes?
[00:31:03] Speaker A: Yeah, absolutely. Like, my toes. Okay. You know, like, they're, they're half decent.
[00:31:08] Speaker B: What do you mean your toes are half decent?
[00:31:10] Speaker A: Are they like, bad?
[00:31:12] Speaker B: No, they're creepy. Why is your second and third toe longer than your big toe? That's fucking weird, babe. Yeah, no, they're both. No, his first and second toe are both longer than his big toe. It's weird. Like, I don't care. I don't care other people's feet looks like. Because I have weird baby feet, so I know my feet are creepy too, but. Babe, your feet are weird.
[00:31:36] Speaker A: But I don't wear open toes.
[00:31:38] Speaker B: Thank God for that.
[00:31:39] Speaker A: Now outside the house, like.
[00:31:40] Speaker B: Yeah, just because I'm okay with your toes doesn't mean other people would be okay with your toes.
[00:31:46] Speaker A: I, I, no one will ever see my toes. Like, people I know really well, like, will never see my toes.
[00:31:54] Speaker B: Yeah, they don't want to see it.
[00:31:58] Speaker A: And it's just like, like your toes.
[00:32:00] Speaker B: Are not a gentle slope.
[00:32:02] Speaker A: Are they supposed to be?
[00:32:03] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:32:06] Speaker A: I mean, I, I don't know.
[00:32:08] Speaker B: Like, I don't know either.
I just know all feet are creepy.
[00:32:14] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:32:14] Speaker B: I mean, all appendages are disgusting.
[00:32:17] Speaker A: He like it, it like, but like, I'll see dudes like yellow, gangly.
I'm like, what the fuck are you doing? You have like bunions. I don't even know what a bunion is. You have them though. You have a hammer toe and fucking like weird looking, like Chinese wrapped up feet. Like, what the fuck are you doing showing them tootsies out. Put them away.
[00:32:40] Speaker B: Okay. I also don't know what a bunion is. And be. They're called lily feet. But continue.
[00:32:45] Speaker A: Like, like, like either, like chop off your leg and replace it with a peg leg. Like, I will fucking donate to that fucking gofundme.
[00:32:55] Speaker B: Legs.
[00:32:57] Speaker A: You would fucking fall all the time.
[00:32:59] Speaker B: But what I still have to. I could buy like basic bitch shoes. I wouldn't buy like special orthopedic shoes so my feet hurt less.
[00:33:07] Speaker A: You wouldn't have feet anymore if you chopped off your feet.
[00:33:09] Speaker B: I know if I don't have feet, they can't hurt.
[00:33:12] Speaker C: Yeah, but then you wouldn't be able to walk.
[00:33:15] Speaker B: I already can't walk.
[00:33:19] Speaker C: Alex. It would be so much worse.
[00:33:23] Speaker A: Well, speaking of walking, that, that puts us right into our next story.
[00:33:28] Speaker B: Can you say it the way you're supposed to say it? That I'm Walking here.
[00:33:32] Speaker A: I'm walking here. That's not a thing that New Yorkers say.
[00:33:36] Speaker B: It's not?
[00:33:37] Speaker A: No, not at all. I know.
[00:33:38] Speaker B: Where did that even come from then?
[00:33:39] Speaker A: A movie.
Just like, movie shit.
[00:33:44] Speaker B: All movies are accurate. They're 100% accurate.
[00:33:47] Speaker A: Babe, we were at. We were in New York. Did you remember when we were in New York? No one said that. No one's like, hey, I'm walking here.
[00:33:58] Speaker B: When were we in New York?
[00:33:59] Speaker A: When we went to Puerto Rico.
We're in there for, like, a whole ass day. Remember the fucking hurricane that landed us in Queens?
[00:34:07] Speaker B: I don't remember anything.
[00:34:09] Speaker A: Okay. We were in Queen. We're in Jamaica, Queens. We had an Airbnb and we walked over to get pizza.
[00:34:18] Speaker B: Was the pizza good?
[00:34:19] Speaker A: Pizza's all right.
[00:34:21] Speaker B: Ah, yeah, it was okay.
[00:34:23] Speaker A: It was.
[00:34:24] Speaker C: It wasn't the spot because we were hungry.
[00:34:28] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, like, it was like a, like, Middle Eastern family all up in there making pizza.
[00:34:35] Speaker B: Okay, so they were legit.
[00:34:37] Speaker A: I mean, local biz. It was a local business. It wasn't like Domino's or nothing, but it wasn't like, you know, Domino's is not local.
[00:34:46] Speaker B: It's a chain.
[00:34:48] Speaker A: It. Well, yeah, I'm saying it wasn't Domino's, which is a compliment, but it wasn't. No, like, Manhattan pizza, you know, it's not like walking down McNug McDougall's and getting pizza over there.
[00:35:02] Speaker B: Pizza.
[00:35:04] Speaker A: It was just like, hey, yeah, here's some, you know, Jamaica pizza.
[00:35:10] Speaker B: I want good pizza that won't hurt my tummy.
[00:35:12] Speaker A: Make it yourself then. So. But there. There's a new law in New York City that lets people just jaywalk, you know, across the street. Yeah. Jaywalking has been legalized in New York City.
Letting people cross.
[00:35:30] Speaker C: We're going to die now.
[00:35:31] Speaker A: No, like the. The.
You know, it's not fast out there in New York. Like, walk or take an Uber.
[00:35:43] Speaker C: Yeah, but all those people trying to maneuver their cars and, like, go in little spaces and like that. Like, I thought I was gonna die. Take them being in the stupid vehicle.
[00:35:59] Speaker A: Take the subway.
I mean, everyone I know from New.
[00:36:03] Speaker C: York, someone's gonna knife me on the subway.
[00:36:05] Speaker A: No.
You know, here's what's gonna happen on the subway. You're gonna, like, look over and see a homeless dude pissing him his pants. You might see some fucking deviant, like, jerking off under a fucking trench coat. And, you know, if you make eye contact with him, he's gonna flash you his hard penis. That's, like, weirdly fucking weird. Shaped like leaning off to one side and like, like weird mushroom shaped.
[00:36:31] Speaker B: Is anyone else hearing this God awful flapping noise?
[00:36:33] Speaker A: Yes, it's my computer.
[00:36:34] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:36:36] Speaker A: There.
[00:36:37] Speaker B: Oh, thank God. That had to go.
[00:36:45] Speaker A: But yeah, I mean like that that's what happens, you know, in New York subways. It's not, you know, anything crazy.
Yeah, like, like the joker is a bad representation of what happens on the subway.
You know, a crazy dude in clown paint doesn't come and shoot you if you're rich, you know.
[00:37:09] Speaker C: Alex, go to the bathroom or something.
[00:37:11] Speaker A: No, she's right here actually.
[00:37:12] Speaker B: Can I go to the bathroom?
[00:37:13] Speaker A: Go to the bathroom. Let's see what time we're at.
[00:37:18] Speaker C: Half an hour.
[00:37:19] Speaker B: I'm just too years in.
[00:37:20] Speaker A: Okay, that's fine. I don't care. Go to the bathroom. Make it quick.
But so yeah, you know, legislation passed in the city council last month. Officially, you know, Eric Adams declined to take action. So now you can just jaywalk.
And New York jaywalkers are just people trying to get where they need to go and they, they cuz there obviously a bunch of black people doing it.
And so cops are just like looking at black people and you know, using it as a reason to with them.
So now it's like yay, hey cops. You no longer have to deal with that. Now go deal with real crime.
[00:38:08] Speaker C: Oh my.
[00:38:09] Speaker A: Yep.
[00:38:14] Speaker C: So my dad, he's like, oh, can you get off your phone? You're on your phone all the time. But the thing is, so is he like when we go to the grocery store, even on the way there he turns, he's listening to Fox.
[00:38:33] Speaker A: You know, it'd be cool.
[00:38:34] Speaker C: And like his little freaking little clips about weird Jehovah Witnesses and whatever his.
[00:38:40] Speaker A: Name is Shapiro and Ben Shapiro.
[00:38:42] Speaker C: Yeah, like that like a ton all the time.
[00:38:48] Speaker A: I, I can't wait till Elon Musk makes like a chair for your dad that, that way. Like it like just has like, you know, autopilot for him so he can watch more Fox News as his chair just like guides him around the grocery store and picks out for him.
Oh man, how cool would that be? Like he has like a, like a Tesla motorized chair that goes into like his Tesla cyber truck and then it just drives him wherever he needs to go. Like a driverless car full self driving parks and then you know, pulls him out and like does all this and like has like a little robot arm that grabs everything he needs.
It's like you're now fully independent aside from you know, having Tesla run all your.
That, that'd be Pretty cool.
[00:39:49] Speaker C: They actually have someone do that, though.
They had a guy that was using an exoskeleton, and after a certain amount of time, they were trying to say that he couldn't use it anymore because it's.
[00:40:04] Speaker A: Expect. It's expensive, you know, some of them.
[00:40:08] Speaker C: Well, no, he couldn't even, like, get old parts himself and, like, repair it himself.
[00:40:12] Speaker A: Yeah. That's why. Right. To repair is such a huge issue in this country, because if they, you know, legalize it in one state, they have to legalize in every state. It just, you know, rolls.
And Apple really doesn't want that to happen.
[00:40:33] Speaker C: Yeah, because Apple's.
[00:40:38] Speaker A: I mean, you know, go ahead and have your own thing. Like, I. I don't hate iPhones. It's just. I'm not a part of that crowd. The. The pretentious pricks that think that they're better than everybody else.
[00:40:53] Speaker B: Remember how tiny it is?
[00:40:55] Speaker A: Yeah. My wife has, like, a phone that I can literally wrap my entire fist around.
[00:41:01] Speaker B: I got an iPhone SE. It's so small. It's so great. I love it.
[00:41:05] Speaker A: Like, I can.
[00:41:08] Speaker B: Yeah. I can hold my phone in one hand again. It's so nice.
[00:41:13] Speaker A: Yeah, man. I can take my phone. I can do the same thing.
[00:41:16] Speaker B: See? Like, hold them together.
[00:41:20] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean, like, yes, your phone is, like, way smaller, but my phone is, like, way bigger. And, like, I can watch, like, fucking mechanic videos on YouTube in my phone, like, way better than you.
[00:41:33] Speaker B: I can see videos just fine.
I was malnourished.
I was supposed to be over 6ft tall.
[00:41:46] Speaker A: Because you didn't go to TGI Fridays as a kid.
[00:41:50] Speaker B: The. Is that.
Have you a store?
[00:41:53] Speaker A: No, it's a restaurant.
[00:41:54] Speaker B: Oh, okay.
[00:41:55] Speaker A: It's like an Applebee's.
But TGI Fridays has filed for bankruptcy.
[00:42:03] Speaker B: So they are Applebee's.
[00:42:06] Speaker A: They're almost Applebee's. Yeah.
[00:42:10] Speaker C: Wow.
[00:42:11] Speaker A: You know, the. The COVID 19 was, like, their major push for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
And. Yeah, I mean, they're gonna try and stay open, but I'm like, it's done, dude. Like, you know, sit down. Restaurants are, like, a thing of the past.
[00:42:37] Speaker B: Isn't it a shame?
[00:42:39] Speaker A: No.
[00:42:40] Speaker C: Why? I like going out.
[00:42:43] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:42:43] Speaker C: Quite honestly, I'd rather go out to eat once in a while instead of ordering in because it's the same price, and, like, it's just a nice thing to actually get together.
[00:42:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:42:55] Speaker C: But none of my family likes to.
[00:42:57] Speaker A: So, I mean, like, that.
This is gonna make me sound like a fucking monster. I hate the fact that I have to fucking, you know, go out there and then pay a tip for someone to bring my food, like, to come up, you know, take my order, take it back to the kitchen, and then bring my food from the kitchen to my table. And I have to fucking pay them 20% of my meal for doing that. I'm like, I could just, you know, order online, have a slip print in the kitchen correctly with the correct food, and then go to the kitchen and get my own food. Like, if there was a restaurant that did that.
Oh, yeah, it's called a grocery store. And eating at home.
[00:43:39] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:43:41] Speaker A: I mean, like, I. I do. Like, if I do go out, I do tip well. Like, I have to.
You know, it's like, you know, supporting the military. If you live in the United States, you better support that military. You better love everything they do, and you better not ask any questions about what they do. Just love it.
Yeah.
[00:44:01] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:44:03] Speaker A: But that's what it is, you know, but, you know, going out to a restaurant, I.
I'd rather just, you know, if I have to go out and, like, get something from them, I'd rather take it home and eat it at my own house.
That way I can like, sit at home, have, you know, my pants off and be eating food, and then I don't have to tip.
And they have to bring the food so much further from the kitchen to, like, the front. And it's like, now you don't get a tip because you brought it further.
And I'm not dirtying up one of your tables.
Which. The bus boys are the ones that clean that for the most part.
[00:44:54] Speaker B: Wait, their busboys? Like, CNAs?
I don't know what a CNA is, all right?
[00:45:01] Speaker C: They do basically do all the basic.
[00:45:03] Speaker B: Bit shit, the backbone.
[00:45:06] Speaker A: I mean, like, Denny's is like a whole different game, though. Like, they'll come, you know, take your order, clean the table, do everything.
Sometimes they even go back there and cook your food, depending on how late you get there.
Like. Like, usually it's just like the manager. Like, if you're like, at a late night, it's like one of the managers that's doing everything. Doing the waitress duties in the up front, you know, taking your money, all.
[00:45:32] Speaker B: Of it, and then shaping a one. I hate being a one woman show.
[00:45:37] Speaker A: Yeah, no, like, it's exhausting. The last time I went to Denny's out in Durango, you know, the manager there was great.
You know, she was just like, chasing away homeless people. Be like, hey, you can't be here, you know, and being like, extra sweet to Us. I'm like, oh my gosh, you know, love those people, the ones I'll be mean to homeless people, but be nice to like paying customers.
You guys are awesome.
But yeah, TGI Fridays, it was so, so food. It was like a Walmart version of Applebee's.
So I mean, you know, so long, farewell, we'll never meet again.
I mean, just have your food inside, like safeways and it's fine.
And then a story that Courtney wanted to cover was the death of the 19 year old Walmart employee that was found in the oven.
[00:46:45] Speaker C: Yeah, it's such a shitty way to die.
[00:46:48] Speaker B: Walmart has ovens in Canada?
[00:46:51] Speaker A: Oh, I mean, no. Like if you work at a Walmart.
[00:46:55] Speaker B: Isn'T it Canada day?
[00:47:00] Speaker C: Walmart has rotisserie chickens. You know that, right? They cook them there. Yeah, they have a bakery, they, they cook them there.
[00:47:10] Speaker B: So our ovens, like the walk in freezers we at.
[00:47:14] Speaker A: Okay, so at the Walmart I worked at, we did not have an oven. Now it was also not a 24 hour Walmart either. We closed at night.
I feel like the bigger Walmarts, they, they might have ovens. I don't know, I don't really care. But you know, like as long as she is not Jewish, I, I think like it's not gonna be a problem now if she's Jewish. Holy.
Will it become a shitstorm?
But either way, she worked at a Walmart so she's like sitting in the oven dying and making this ain't too bad, this is fine. It's like that meme with the dog with the house on fire, like this is fine. You know, I'm sure like that's how that girl felt. It's like, this sucks. I'm going to die, but I don't have to go to work tomorrow at Walmart.
[00:48:15] Speaker B: Like that point can't be denied.
[00:48:18] Speaker A: Like the amount of time that I was driving to work at Walmart and I thought about crashing my car just so I wouldn't have to go is crazy.
I'm like, I, I really don't want to go to Walmart.
But there is a video of them like closing like these oven doors and proving that it's like impossible for her to close herself in.
So it was most likely a murder. And I'm sure you know, it's going to become like little news and get swept under the rug and someone's gonna just need or no one's gonna ever get caught.
Yeah, it's like if you like work in road construction and you know, one of Your co workers pushes you out into traffic. It's like, oh, no. And no one knows what happens.
Like, I. I hate these road construction workers that have their cones and insist on walking on the other side of the cones. Like, my side of the cones. I'm like, what the are you doing?
[00:49:26] Speaker B: That's the whole point of the cones, Mike.
[00:49:29] Speaker A: The cones are there to keep you safe. Stay on your side of the cones. I will drive on my side of the cones.
[00:49:34] Speaker B: Like, yes.
[00:49:35] Speaker A: You know, now that it's getting cold is my favorite season, watching the lazy road construction workers freeze their ass off.
[00:49:44] Speaker B: It is. It is fun to see first thing in the morning. I'm not gonna lie.
[00:49:49] Speaker A: Well, like, when it's snowing, they're not even out there. And I'm like, I. I can't wait till, like, your entire crew just quits because you didn't want to be hard on them. And now your company is having to pay to make sure this gets done.
Like, pay another company, like, triple or whatever.
Like, Like, I. I hate it, like, when road construction projects take forever to do.
And, you know, people like, well, you. You don't know what it all goes into it. You don't know how long it would actually take. I'm like, oh, actually, I do. I go to other states as a truck driver and as someone that's lived all around the country. And I've seen how long it takes, you know, in other states.
It is very quick.
Like, I literally watched, you know, New Mexico get about 40 miles of road ripped up, repaved, and repainted on, like, the span of, like, like, two to three weeks, you know, and they, like, moved. And like, they moved the cones too. Like, they didn't just keep the entire closed. Like, we're gonna do this section now. This section. At every single time I went out there, every single person was working. Every single person was doing something. You get to the other side of the border, Colorado, you know, you see, like, one person actually doing something, and then the rest of them are just standing on their phones.
[00:51:19] Speaker B: Okay, you know what? No, it's bullshit. So I used to commute to Castle Rock, and the entire time I commute to Castle Rock, I drove through construction. So I drove through two plus hours of construction one way, and now I work less than 20 minutes away from home. But two months after we settled into our house, I now have chronic. I've had since then, chronic construction. On my way to work. Like, it followed me. Like, I25, like, was finished, and now all those fucking circle jerkers Dudes now have to find other construction roads in town to fuck around with on my route to work.
[00:51:58] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, I hate them bastards.
[00:52:01] Speaker B: Fucking all of them. I'm so happy. It's freezing cold in the mornings and I get. And I get to see them, like, shivering their asses off. I'm like, yeah, fuck you, dude.
[00:52:09] Speaker A: But I did have a thought the other day, you know, I'm like, if they had special needs people there, it would evaporate all my anger. Like, if I saw some kid with down syndrome just waving at me holding a sign that says slow. I'm like, I can't be mad at him.
[00:52:28] Speaker B: Why not?
[00:52:30] Speaker A: He has down syndrome.
[00:52:31] Speaker B: So that makes you feel pity towards him?
[00:52:35] Speaker A: No, it just, you know, people down tender just make me happier.
[00:52:39] Speaker B: Why did they make you happier?
[00:52:40] Speaker A: Because their fucking happiness is contagious.
[00:52:43] Speaker B: So innocence is bliss.
[00:52:45] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:52:46] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:52:48] Speaker A: And like, you know, just seeing him out there, like, you know, picking up cones and like, you know, but. And then paying them, I'm like, okay, that, you know, but like, I'm sure if they did that, you know, all these kids with down syndrome would actually get the job done. Like, they'd like, hop in the, you know, skid steer and, you know, start, you know, pushing around dirt and like, you know, like, oh, the road's done. Okay, time to go to the next job. And they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Kids, like, settle down. Like, we don't have to work this hard. Like, we're not even working that hard, mister.
And like, oh my gosh. I know.
[00:53:28] Speaker B: Like, I'm gonna pretend I didn't just hear that.
[00:53:31] Speaker A: What? What? My, my impression, all of it.
It's a great idea.
[00:53:36] Speaker B: Sure.
[00:53:38] Speaker A: You know, having kids with down syndrome, you know, and autism and Asperger's and all sorts of stuff.
[00:53:44] Speaker B: Oh my God, I did not come here to hear your ableism.
[00:53:48] Speaker A: It's not it.
[00:53:50] Speaker B: Yes, it is. The second you make that tone, that's what it is.
[00:53:57] Speaker A: Like, like when I see like, like there is a car digging this hole, I'll dig it. That's fine. There's a car wash that only employs like down syndrome kids.
And like, it makes me happy to, you know, see them out there having a good time washing cars and getting paid for it too, you know, like, like I. I see able bodied men holding a sign that says slow. You know, it never will say stop. It just says slow. And they're just sitting there staring at their phones for eight hours a day getting paid for this, like 17 an hour. You, you know, Much. Then they'll, like, stare at me, and then, like, slow down. I'm like, dude, I'm doing 18 miles an hour. Like, I want to fucking throw a brick at your head, but if it was, you know, kid with down syndrome just waving at me, you know, big smile on his face, I'm like, yeah, okay, I.
[00:55:01] Speaker B: You know, so you only like certain types of stupid people. Not all stupid people.
[00:55:07] Speaker A: It, like, if you have a reason.
[00:55:10] Speaker B: For it, be stupid.
[00:55:11] Speaker A: Mm, yeah.
Then, you know, it's like, okay, you're fine in my book.
[00:55:15] Speaker B: Fair enough.
[00:55:16] Speaker A: But if you have no reason and you're just like, I'm stupid because I'm lazy. You.
You know, plain and simple, that's what it is. You. You're stupid because you're lazy.
I have no pity for you.
Maybe. Maybe that's what it is. Like, I. I feel like, you know.
[00:55:37] Speaker B: You only pity certain types of stupid people.
[00:55:41] Speaker A: I don't know what it is. It.
Maybe I'm just a bad person. Maybe I am. That. That's fine.
But, like, you know, anytime, like, I see, you know, just like, one dude in, like, the middle of, like, a fucking construction zone, just, like, slow down, like, fucking sneer on his face. I just. I want to fucking get out of my truck and beat the shit out of him.
[00:56:03] Speaker B: Like, are these people paid by the government?
[00:56:06] Speaker A: Yes. These people are paid by your tax dollars that sit there holding a sign that says slow. That's all they're doing, nothing else all day, just on their phone, just staring at people being, slow down.
I'm like, I just. I want to throw a brick at your head. I want you to die. I wish you were fucking starving on the street saying, having a sign that says anything helps. God bless.
I respect those people more than I respect you. Get a real job, you know, like, Walmart used to do this where they. They would give, you know, people that, you know, don't exactly have the skills, like stock shelves or, you know, move quickly.
They just, like, put them at the front door, you know, Their job was to say, welcome to Walmart. Have a great day. Like, that's it. That was their job. And I. I did that job for a little bit.
[00:57:08] Speaker B: You were a greeter?
[00:57:09] Speaker A: I was a greeter, yeah.
They'd be like, hey, Alex, go up front and be a greeter.
Now if they had a big ticket item, you know, like a TV or a game console or something big, they.
[00:57:20] Speaker B: Put you as a Mexican up front as a greeter. Yeah, damn.
[00:57:24] Speaker A: I. I didn't stop no one. Everyone come on through. Come on through. Oh, you stole that.
[00:57:29] Speaker B: Cool.
[00:57:29] Speaker A: Come on through. I don't care. Come on through, everyone. It's a free for all. Come on.
Because, like, when I used to work there, I. I saw someone steal shoes, very obviously, very blatantly stole his shoes, had the tags on and everything, and just walked out of the store. And I'm like, hey, that guy's stealing shoes. Like, we don't care. And at that moment, that was the exact moment, I'm like, I don't care neither then.
And I, I taught everyone every secret. I'm like, walmart, you know? And now that's why this, you know, young girl's dead. Because, you know, Walmart, no one cares.
Now imagine if she did survive, you know, and What?
[00:58:18] Speaker B: Live with 3 degree burns?
[00:58:20] Speaker A: No, just came out like, tan, and she's like, dude, I'm hot now. And like, just came out and just like started only fans.
[00:58:28] Speaker B: And you look like your only fans is for free.
[00:58:34] Speaker A: What?
[00:58:35] Speaker B: Yeah, it's an insult.
[00:58:39] Speaker A: You, you look like your only.
[00:58:41] Speaker B: You look like your only fans is freight. It's an insult.
[00:58:44] Speaker A: Oh, I thought you said for Freddy.
[00:58:46] Speaker B: Who the fuck is Freddy Krueger?
[00:58:48] Speaker C: Quite honestly, I didn't quite hear you that well either. What is she talking about?
[00:58:53] Speaker B: Who the fuck is Freddy?
[00:58:54] Speaker A: Freddy Krueger was a janitor that got accused of being a child molester. And so they burnt him to death in his shack alive. And then he came back and started like, murdering all the kids in their sleep because I think he was innocent.
[00:59:12] Speaker B: Oh, so not. This is our hand, dude.
[00:59:13] Speaker A: No, he just like, has like a weird, like, Christmas sweater and like a fedora and I'm like, they should have just burnt you for the fedora, dude.
[00:59:22] Speaker B: Like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:59:25] Speaker A: Like that, that alone was enough words.
[00:59:27] Speaker B: Fedora.
[00:59:28] Speaker A: Freddy Krueger.
[00:59:29] Speaker B: Oh, my God.
[00:59:30] Speaker A: Freddy Krueger. Like, Freddy Krueger.
[00:59:33] Speaker B: My dad wore fedoras. Yeah, and if that's not a de enforcement, I don't know. Wait, no, it's. This is our hand, dude.
[00:59:43] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, he.
[00:59:45] Speaker B: He's got plates on his fingers.
[00:59:46] Speaker A: Yeah, they're not scissors, though.
[00:59:48] Speaker B: They're. They're razors.
[00:59:51] Speaker A: Edward Scissorhands.
[00:59:52] Speaker C: Edward Scissor Hands. Alex.
[00:59:54] Speaker A: Yeah, that's who I thought you were talking about.
[00:59:56] Speaker B: No, that's the musical with, like, Johnny Depp.
[00:59:58] Speaker A: Not a musical.
[00:59:59] Speaker B: But no, there's no, there's the other Scissor Hands dude with the checker and the bad face.
And that's who we were talking about.
[01:00:08] Speaker C: Yeah, that's what we were Talking about, okay, I connected.
[01:00:12] Speaker A: So yeah, I mean, I did my best.
[01:00:15] Speaker B: God.
[01:00:16] Speaker A: I mean, you don't watch scary movies. It's fine.
[01:00:18] Speaker B: I don't.
[01:00:19] Speaker A: All right, let's go ahead and get on to Am I the this is Am I the by unable string 6735Am I the for not telling my roommates about my large salary when I'm aware he's been struggling to pay rent. I, 28, female, live in a two bedroom apartment with three roommates. It's small and we step on each other's toes sometimes, but it works for us because we're all in graduate programs when we met and needed something cheap for the last six years we split rent evenly and I've been fine with that.
Even they all got even when they all got jobs and I was still a resident, I didn't want to ask to adjust the rent. Now, to be honest, I'm a very quiet, non confrontational person and residency has kept me on weird hours. So I didn't speak to them a lot and I didn't even realize they didn't realize I had finished my program when I did.
I also live on the second floor of our apartment in a space off the attic storage that was meant to be an office. So I keep to myself and go to the second floor of our apartment and do my business. Once I became a licensed emergency physician, I was able to find a job in our city relatively quickly and started working about four months out of residency. I'd already worked as an EMT for years around the hospital and even in college I was getting clinical hours for med school, so I knew the ED well. I don't know who ED is entitled Dr. I it wasn't hard for me to get a job there. I still had loans from med school to pay off, so I saw no problem hanging around and paying my same share of the rent, utilities and groceries that I paid for six years until I built up a savings even though I was making more money than the other three roommates combined. I'm not in a relationship, don't want kids Now.
I liked my little living arrangement while I got some savings behind me. It was fine until the crap hit the fan yesterday and by some insane stroke of bad luck, one of my roommates, a 27 male, was in a car crash and transported to the hospital by ambulance while I was on shift. He was fine, just a bit of whiplash step cut from broken glass. But while he was in the ed. I don't know what that is.
[01:02:53] Speaker B: Emergency department.
[01:02:54] Speaker A: Okay when he was in the ed, he saw me and realized I wasn't a resident anymore, even though he couldn't pin down my exact salary. A quick Google search told him that in our city, I was at least making double what my other roommates were. He was pissed and told my other two roommates while I was still at work. So when I came home, they were all waiting for me. He confronted me and asked what I was making. I told him the truth. They all lost their minds because they knew that A had been struggling to make his share of the rent. Every month where I was hoarding my money. I listened to what they had to say, but I still had loans to pay off and I was going to bed. I was tired after a long shift, and I was aware that is probably blunt and cold, but I.
But when I'm getting yelled at as part of my job description, blah, blah, blah, blah. To take it with a calm face.
[01:03:54] Speaker B: Yep.
Yep.
[01:03:56] Speaker A: This morning, they're all giving me the cold shoulder. And even though we haven't talked about it yet, I can feel it coming. I don't know how to address this because I liked our living arrangement and I don't want that to change, but I can't help feeling that I'm the asshole for not helping out Amor. So am I. No, you're not the.
[01:04:14] Speaker B: Absolutely not. What the fuck?
[01:04:17] Speaker A: I mean, you are an asshole for making a brick of, you know, text. Goddamn doctor.
Like, don't, you know, do a text. Why hate this shed.
[01:04:31] Speaker B: What the f. Oh, my God. The entitlement of those roommates. Like, what the.
[01:04:37] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, this is.
[01:04:40] Speaker B: I'm sorry you're having to deal with this, Op.
This is.
[01:04:47] Speaker C: Yep.
[01:04:50] Speaker A: But, yeah, let's go to the, you know, comments. Clearly not the.
They are, though. You didn't ask for help while you were still a resident and they were making more. None of them offer to cover part of your rent. You don't owe your roommate any money.
[01:05:06] Speaker B: Nope.
[01:05:06] Speaker A: And you shouldn't expect to subsidize the lifestyle of any one you are neither related to nor in a romantic relationship with.
[01:05:14] Speaker B: Yep. Yep.
[01:05:17] Speaker A: Yeah. So tell your roommates to get bent.
You might have to move out, though.
[01:05:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:05:27] Speaker C: Fortunately. People are stupid.
[01:05:30] Speaker B: People are stupid.
God.
[01:05:34] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:05:36] Speaker B: So sorry, your tribe.
[01:05:40] Speaker A: Sorry, op.
[01:05:41] Speaker B: I mean, yeah, I'm sorry, op. It does suck.
[01:05:45] Speaker A: I don't know what city you're living in, but if you're living in, like, an expensive city like New York or something, then, yeah, I understand, like, why they're all pissy because they can't make.
[01:05:55] Speaker B: Money, but that's their problem and not yours.
[01:05:58] Speaker C: Yeah, they didn't offer when they became full time. They worked, and he was a resident to cover more rent. Why the should he?
[01:06:07] Speaker A: Well, yeah, I mean, Opie is a chick, so.
[01:06:12] Speaker C: Oh, shiggy.
[01:06:13] Speaker A: Yep. Now on to relationship advice by. Call her megs2i25, female. Just found out my boyfriend's 36 male daughter is older than me.
I've been dating my boyfriend for several months now. I was aware that he had a child from a previous relationship, but knew virtually nothing about her. He seemed protective over her and particularly sensitive discussing anything related to his previous marriage, so I never pushed him on it. He also never outright mentioned his daughter's age when he had her. I was under the impression that it happened during the marriage, which ended during his mid to late 30s. However, recently, I learned through a friend that his daughter is two years older than me. I'm not sure why I feel so shocked and disgusted, but technically speaking, we're all adults here. I'm just weirded out that he never thought to mention this to me. Moreover, without going into incredibly great detail of our success, of our sex life, he has a daddy kink. I have it, too. It's been great and fun to explore with him on that kind of roleplay thing, but now, knowing that he legitimately has a daughter my age, it's kind of unsettling to me. Not sure how to feel or what to do next. Because he never outright lied, but I feel like he withheld information that I would definitely like to have known before we did what we did.
[01:07:50] Speaker B: Most certainly.
[01:07:56] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:07:56] Speaker B: I mean, I'm sorry op he's taken advantage of you.
[01:08:02] Speaker A: I mean, here's the thing. You are dating a dude double your age.
You know?
[01:08:08] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:08:09] Speaker A: It goes without saying he might have someone your age as a kid, and he. He doesn't want to think about that, you know?
[01:08:23] Speaker B: Or does he?
[01:08:26] Speaker A: What do you mean, does he?
[01:08:28] Speaker C: I don't know. Maybe.
[01:08:32] Speaker A: I mean, he's, you know, he, like, he doesn't want you to be involved. Like, obviously you can't be a mother to her, you know, to, you know, your boyfriend's kid. You can't be, like, stepmommy, but, you know, step mommy's younger than me, you know, dumb.
But yeah, just like, this is like.
[01:08:58] Speaker B: A cliche murder case, too.
[01:09:01] Speaker A: I mean, you know, do whatever you want to do.
Like, like my. My mom, you know, dated someone like, my age.
And, you know, if he was, like, you know, more mature and had his life together, I'd be like, okay, that's fine. But, you know, honestly, sorry, Mom. He was kind of an idiot.
[01:09:29] Speaker C: And.
[01:09:30] Speaker A: My wife just flipped again.
But, yeah, I mean, do whatever you want to do. Don't let, you know, your boyfriend's daughter, you know, get in the way of, you know, having some sex. But, you know, do you really see, like, a marriage, you know, with this dude? Like, there are people that, you know, date for, you know, maybe a marriage, and there are people that date to get their vagina licked. You know, it's one or the other. So, you know, if you're dating, just, you know, get some kinks off, you know, do that.
And I love at the bottom it says, edit horny men. Stop messaging me.
Because. Yeah, she has a daddy kink.
[01:10:18] Speaker C: Yep. So weird.
[01:10:21] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean, don't think about it, you know, enjoy what you can.
Really. You're. You're. This dude's not gonna get married to you. He's just. He likes you because you're young, you know, you're young and beautiful. So, yeah, let's see.
And yeah, that. That will be it for this week. We are at time. We will be back next week with some more.
Probably next week. We'll, like, kind of phone it in maybe. I might be able to get in a argue this with Tron.
So we'll see what happens until then. We'll see you next week. Follow me on Instagram alextruck. Or don't. I don't give a shit. Bye.
