We obviously did. We We did some. 54 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: A little fairy light is fine, but I'm like, I 55 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: don't know if I can commit to doing all Christmas lights. 56 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: But then again, as an electrician, should I be taking 57 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: advantage of this and getting him up on the fucking 58 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: roof and get him to do it. 59 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 2: But my thing is it's all about your street love. 60 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 2: Because here's the thing now that I've moved into the house, 61 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 2: because we obviously moved at the end of last year, 62 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 2: so we kind of skipped our Christmas decorations last year 63 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 2: because I think we moved in like December or something, 64 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: and so we didn't even put up a Christmas tree 65 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 2: last year, which was very sad. But one thing we 66 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 2: didn't consider was whether our street was a Christmas light street. 67 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 3: And I can't remember if a Christmas. 68 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: Light street, and so last year, every other house was 69 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: decked to the halls, mined the pun with Christmas lights, 70 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: and ours was pitch black because we hadn't even moved 71 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: in yet, so none of the lights were even connected, 72 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: like the indoor lights. So when we drive down the 73 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 2: street at night to get to our house when we 74 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 2: were you know, started moving our things, every other house 75 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: was like lit up literally like a Christmas tree, and 76 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 2: ours was pitch black. And I just thought, how embarrassing. 77 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: And then I thought to myself, well, we're gonna have 78 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: to do something, so. 79 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: You're gonna do it.

We talk about no better. The fun fact 186 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 2: for you is, as I said earlier this week, within 187 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: Disneyland Paris, and out of all the parks I've been to, 188 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 2: one of the worst. Yeah, boring, boring, not enough ride 189 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: cool yeah, like I mean it's Disneyland. Always gonna have 190 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: a good time at Disneyland, but like, not enough thrill rides. 191 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: I know Disneyland is more catered to younger kids, but 192 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 2: they still have some big thrill rides at the you know, ye. 193 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 3: I wish I could enjoy your theme park. 194 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: Like I just get motion sick so bad that I 195 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: cannot go on a ride. 196 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: But so does Sky. Sky really struggles with it. But 197 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 2: he just takes motion sickness tablets while he's in the 198 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 2: line and he was fine. 199 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 3: He was fine. 200 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, he would be way worse than you when it 201 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: comes to motion sickness. And he did the Velocit Coast 202 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: of Dell. Granted he had to not do anything for 203 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 2: another hour, but he was fine. 204 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: I know. And then you get off the ride and 205 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: you feel so well and the next couple of hours 206 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: is like a write off because you just don't feel right. 207 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think we put a plan in place though, 208 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: and he was fine because he suffers really badly with 209 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: the motion sickness. So maybe you need to come to 210 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: a theme park with me and I'll. 211 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 3: You'll sus it out. 212 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll sus it out. 213 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 3: No, just I'm that loser that just stands there with 214 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 3: the bags. 215 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 2: Could never be me. I've got the plan in my head. Right, everyone, 216 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: We're going to Splash Mountain first. It's the back of 217 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: the park, will work. 218 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: Out fast past thing, because I can't think of anything worse. 219 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 1: And I get it's fun and whatever, but like when 220 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: you don't have the fast pass and you stand in 221 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: that line for one hour, just standing there waiting to 222 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: go on a twenty second ride. 223 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, because where was it? Was it maybe Universal Studios 224 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 2: earlier this year that I got the fast pass and 225 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 2: when I'll never not get the fast pass again, and 226 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: it really does, I know, it's it is ridiculous pricing, 227 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: Like the ticket to the park might be one hundred 228 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: and fifty dollars and the fast pass is four hundred dollars, Like, 229 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: it's ridiculous how much more it is. But I think 230 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 2: it's very much worth putting that in your budget if 231 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: you're doing trips and going to theme park f blah blah, 232 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 2: because it is a totally different experience. I went from 233 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: never booking a fast pass, No, I'm not spending the 234 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 2: extra money, What a waste of money, blah blah blah, 235 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 2: And then once I got a taste of a fast pass, 236 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: I went, oh, my god, it's actually just an entirely 237 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 2: different theme park experience because you're not waiting all day. 238 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 2: You don't have to run to the next ride because 239 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: you're gonna run out of time, you don't have to 240 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 2: scoff down your lunch so you can get back in 241 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: a line for an hour. You know, you actually get 242 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 2: to take your time and enjoy your day even more so. 243 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: And that's the thing, Like, you know how they have 244 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: like screens and it's like wait time two hours and 245 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: twenty minutes, wait time an hour and twenty like, so 246 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: much of the day is taken up just waiting. 247 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so a lot of the fast passes these days 248 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 2: you can only use once per ride. Love that though, 249 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: but the thing is the best part is like if 250 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 2: you get there at the park open, you go and 251 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: do a few rides when the ride's only ten minute 252 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 2: wait anyway, and then you get to use your fast 253 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 2: pass later in the day. So yeah, I am all 254 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: about a fast pass. Sorry you need one. It just 255 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 2: literally changes it. And then you just get to sit 256 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: Like you know where you've got a theme park and 257 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: obviously they have like the hot dog stands and stuff, 258 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 2: but then they actually have nice restaurants that you could 259 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 2: sit down for an hour and a half out and 260 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 2: actually eat a meal properly, like in a restaurant. I 261 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: feel like my whole life, I wouldn't dare waste my 262 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 2: time doing that. But when you get a fast pass, 263 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: like you get to go and enjoy your lunch and 264 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: sit down and actually have a breather and have some 265 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 2: quiet time and then get stuck back into it. So 266 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 2: I know it's really expensive, but I mean I wouldn't 267 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 2: go without working that into my budget from now on 268 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 2: because I can't live without it. Anyway. This fun fact 269 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: I've got for you. 270 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 3: You literally just delayed it again. 271 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 2: The fun fact I've got for you is that at Disneyland, 272 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: you know they do a fireworks display at the end 273 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: of the night. Which Disneyland Paris twenty minute fireworks display. 274 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: Let me tell you there was about forty seconds of fireworks. 275 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: I felt ripped off waiting for that all day. 276 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 3: Aren't fireworks canceled now? 277 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: No? No, sorry, I'll do anything for the environment. You 278 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 2: can't take fireworks away from me. Fuck your drone shows. 279 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 2: I'm over those. I don't want to see it. It's 280 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 2: not it doesn't excite me at all. I look at 281 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 2: a drone show and go fuck hell bor ring. I 282 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 2: could do it. Give me the controller.

I first and foremost, 285 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 2: for the rest of my life will be a fireworks stand. 286 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 2: I want fireworks at any given moment. I will take 287 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 2: a firework over anything. 288 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: Me googling how bad are fireworks for the environment? 289 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 2: Yeah?

Causing air and 295 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: water pollution from chemical residues, contributing to wildfires and acid rain, 296 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: and severely impacting wildlife through noise, light, and physical debris. 297 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 3: All the animals too bad. 298 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 2: I'm all for it.

And this 316 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: is going off those twenty minute fireworks shows that would 317 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: cost thousands of thousands of dollars. Did you know that 318 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 2: the popcorn sales alone at Disneyland make more money than 319 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 2: it costs to run the fireworks show each night? 320 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: So? Wait, do they have like popcorn sales right there 321 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: at where the fireworks are? 322 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: No popcorn at Disneyland. It's a thing. You can buy 323 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 2: popcorn at all the stands at Disneyland. You can, like 324 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 2: a lot of people buy popcorn.
