If I have a really 191 00:10:24,401 --> 00:10:27,761 Speaker 3: baggy top on, I'll have to have something a little 192 00:10:27,761 --> 00:10:29,761 Speaker 3: bit tighter on the bottom, because if I wear a 193 00:10:29,801 --> 00:10:32,441 Speaker 3: baggy top with baggy pants, I look like a solid 194 00:10:32,561 --> 00:10:36,161 Speaker 3: brick shit house walking around. I don't cope because I 195 00:10:36,241 --> 00:10:38,521 Speaker 3: just look like one solid brick. Well, why do you 196 00:10:38,521 --> 00:10:41,241 Speaker 3: want to wear baggy with baggy Yeah, because it doesn't 197 00:10:41,241 --> 00:10:41,801 Speaker 3: make sense. 198 00:10:42,161 --> 00:10:45,681 Speaker 2: Yeah, I blame Justin Bieber, and I blame Billie Eilish, 199 00:10:45,761 --> 00:10:49,281 Speaker 2: and I've just quickly on that, don't Billy Eilish. I 200 00:10:49,281 --> 00:10:52,121 Speaker 2: would never tell my girls this because they actually probably 201 00:10:52,201 --> 00:10:53,241 Speaker 2: murder me in my sleep. 202 00:10:53,441 --> 00:10:54,481 Speaker 3: Yeah, they love her. 203 00:10:54,801 --> 00:10:59,521 Speaker 2: Yeah.

So have so many people, Right, what's her 208 00:11:12,841 --> 00:11:15,401 Speaker 2: point of difference The fact that she looks like a weirdo. 209 00:11:15,641 --> 00:11:19,121 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's her point of difference. Like you'd almost like, oh, 210 00:11:19,201 --> 00:11:22,961 Speaker 3: and then you create that individuality like we're so like 211 00:11:23,081 --> 00:11:25,041 Speaker 3: in your own league, and then you're going to be 212 00:11:25,081 --> 00:11:27,601 Speaker 3: like and then people want to wear what you're wearing. 213 00:11:27,921 --> 00:11:29,161 Speaker 2: Yeah, because they are. 214 00:11:29,641 --> 00:11:31,641 Speaker 3: I don't get it.
