1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: I didn't pay my fiance's mother five thousand dollars, so

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: she ruined my life, and now we're homeless. Okay, welcome

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: to OKOP. I'm Samuel Daughter and I'm John Fratt, and

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 1: we tell the funniest stories on the Internet. And John,

5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: I have a title for you right now.

6
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 2: I am excited. We got some good ones today.

7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: I didn't pay my fiance's mother five thousand dollars, so

8
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: she ruined my life, and now we're homeless.

9
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 2: Man, you know, five thousand dollars and your life is

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: ruined and you're homeless. Like rough, We're not off to

11
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: a good stort. We haven't read the first sentence, and

12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 2: we are not in a good place.

13
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: Here we go. This just emotionally strapping this. This one's tough.

14
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: This story is extremely hard for me to tell because

15
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: I'm still feeling the effects of it. However, I feel

16
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: like I need to because this story features the most

17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: entitled parents I have ever met in my whole life.

18
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: But we've had a lot of.

19
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: Parents.

20
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: This stacks up, baby. See, this is the story of

21
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: how my life has been ruined because, like the title states,

22
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: I refuse to pay my fiance's mother five thousand dollars

23
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: Buckarooney's sand dollars. Zimbab Wayhan knuckles.

24
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: Well, there'd be a lot more zimbabwe dollars.

25
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, it's like what like a trillion dollars one

26
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: American dollar something like that. Started out simple enough, as

27
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: any story starts. In August of twenty nineteen, when my

28
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: fiance and I were dating. My parents, who I was

29
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: staying with at the time to care for my stepmother

30
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: after a surgery. Another story in itself, wanted me to

31
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 1: leave because they couldn't make out and do them as

32
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: much as they wanted to. Could you imagine you gotta

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: go because I gotta I got it on. We're gonna

34
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: make some Simba noises over here, some sim noises I

35
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: don't know. My buddy sent me a picture of some

36
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: lions getting it on. Oh, and then I said it

37
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: to my friend who was single, and I'm like, you'll

38
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: find your special someone soon. So they told me this

39
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: in a very abrupt manner and expected me to leave

40
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: fairly quickly, giving me no time to prepare. Guess when

41
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: you got when you gotta get it on, you gotta

42
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: get it on.

43
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 2: Absurdity of this scenario, like I cannot even imagine.

44
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: My fiance kindly asked his mother, who he was staying with,

45
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: if I could live with them long enough for us

46
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: to get in an apartment together. He stressed to her

47
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: that it would be difficult for us to get an

48
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: apartment ourselves because we're just starting out, and while we

49
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: could cover monetary expenses, we would still most likely need

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: a co signer. Dude, like getting an apartment is tough

51
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: without a co signer. I think I needed my parents

52
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 1: to co sign my first apartment because I didn't have

53
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: any income when I came out of college.

54
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 2: This is true. I will say the last two apartments

55
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: I co signed myself.

56
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: Big man, Look at you. She promised both me and

57
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: him that if we couldn't qualify for an apartment ourselves,

58
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: she would co sign for us, which seems nice. Maybe

59
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: not an.

60
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 2: Entitled parent, after all, We will see by the way,

61
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 2: I want to do this with the entitled parents. At

62
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: the end, we should give zero out of ten karens.

63
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, out of ten karens. How many karens? This so

64
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 1: I moved from Illinois to Florida. Within a week of

65
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: me being in the house, fiance's mother made our lives

66
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: are living.

67
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: They just need to hire you for Jurassic.

68
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: What are my noises?

69
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 2: If only these stories featured dinosaurs.

70
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: When I first met my girlfriend's parents, the feedback that

71
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: I got from Arianna is I think you could have

72
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: stopped pretending to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex for a little

73
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: bit more time. Apparently I did my t Rex impression

74
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: too often in front of her parents meeting her for

75
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: the first time. But the t rex impression is so good.

76
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 3: Let's see it, let's see it.

77
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: Oh my god, listen. If if my daughter came home

78
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: with that, I would be like, why is there not

79
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 2: a ring yet?

80
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: Why is there not a part?

81
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 3: I need?

82
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: John? So t Rex should be a selling point, baby,

83
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: go off, king, king of the jungle.

84
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: The king of the fucking prestar era, whatever the era,

85
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 2: the dinosase yea yeah, ship.

86
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: Give me that ship, bro. Despite me landing a job

87
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: within a week and having to work late nights for

88
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: said job, she would come into the living room each

89
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: morning at varying stupidly early hours to tell us you

90
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: need a doctor while she goes back to sleep like

91
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: a dumb little dumb dumb Dummerson. Until no she would

92
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: complain that we weren't cleaning the dishes? Did she sounds

93
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 1: like an evil stepmother.

94
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, Yeah, they're not cleaning the dishes, and.

95
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: That we had used to make a meal, or that

96
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 1: we were still eating.

97
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 3: How dare you?

98
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: How dare you not cleaning the dishes while you're still eating?

99
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: She would gaslight and pick petty fights with my fiance

100
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: and then play the victim like a true narcissist. It

101
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: got so bad that a few weeks in we decided

102
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: to rent a hotel room for the weekend, just to

103
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: get away from her and have some alone time. We

104
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: had our apartment picked out anyway. All we need to

105
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: do when we got back was sign some paperwork and

106
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: then we'd be away from her deathly grip hallelujah, hallelujah,

107
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: and it'll be fine. Right, Yeah, wrong, wrong. After the weekend,

108
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: fiance's mother drove us back to her house. On the

109
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: way back, she sprung something on me. She wanted us

110
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: to pay her five thousand dollars five thousands smack of

111
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: rooms twenty trillion Zimbabay dollars. I want everything to be

112
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: in Zimbabwe.

113
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 2: Everything now is adjusted for hyper hyper inflation.

114
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, I want to invest in I got I

115
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: guess I should invest in Zimbabwe dollars. I know I should.

116
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe, you know, it's it's it's gotten to a

117
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: point where like what goes up must come down. So

118
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: if the inflation has gone so high, guys, I think

119
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 2: we found the next bitcoin here or.

120
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: I was just about to say, probably, they're probably just

121
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: gonna move to bitcoin like all this small countries like

122
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: they should.

123
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: They should shout out shout out eight coin.

124
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, shout shout out El Salvador. They're on the bitcoin train.

125
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: For context, my fiance was going to be receiving a

126
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: nine thousand dollars medical settlement a few months from that point.

127
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: Before he met me, he had told his mother that

128
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: if he was still single, he would give her five

129
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Bro that's a lot towards a trailer that

130
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 1: they would both own and live in together. You know,

131
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: this doesn't sound like a good deal.

132
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 2: It's just kind of weird.

133
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 1: It's like his mom that in a trailer, that, like,

134
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: doesn't she already have a house?

135
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I wondered that as well. And all, so

136
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 2: the proposition of like, if I'm single, I will give

137
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 2: you five thousand dollars for a space. It's just kind

138
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: of a weird. I mean, it's cool that he's giving

139
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: his moms.

140
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, like the if I'm single, it gives me,

141
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: It gives me a fuck? What's that? What's that story?

142
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: The Greek story about the guy that hooks up with

143
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: his mom?

144
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 3: Oh?

145
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm talking about? Right?

146
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 2: Why are they always banging?

147
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: It's not like it's not it's a it's it's a

148
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: complex Oedipus.

149
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: There we go.

150
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, like my main man Oedipus. This guy's got an

151
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: Oedipus complex. Yeah, that's a deep cut. Yeah, bro. Like

152
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: when I was on a call and this guy referenced

153
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: some like Disney like about like like ducktails, you referenced that,

154
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: and he's like, that's a deep cut, and I'm like,

155
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: I fucking love that. I'm gonna steal that. Yeah, so

156
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start saying deep cuts now. Since my spouse

157
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: and I are dating and very serious at the time,

158
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: this was extremely confusing that you would demand. Yeah, my

159
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: fiance tried to explain to her that he had only

160
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: promised to give her money if he was single. He's like, ma,

161
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: you cramp my stock and my style. Ma the hooks

162
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: with this this young lady or man, I'm not really

163
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: young is young? Yeah, this sweet young thang. And you're like,

164
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: let's move into a trailer together and also pay for it.

165
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: I'll pass.

166
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, thank you, no, thank you. This kind of

167
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: relates back to the beginning of the story. If you're

168
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: trying to spang after the wedding, like you don't want

169
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: your mom to speakin come up to the worst threesome ever.

170
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: She was having none of it and attempted to gaslight

171
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: him about it. When that didn't work, she turned to

172
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: me and requested that I pay her the five thousand dollars.

173
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 1: I only had about five thousand dollars in my bank

174
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: account at the time, so I could not do that

175
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: and pay the rent for the apartment at the same time.

176
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: So OPI is is screwed. When she realized she couldn't

177
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: squeeze blood from a stone, which what a great mine.

178
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 2: I thought that was, like, wow, what a great.

179
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: Great metaphor. My fiance's mother finally declared, well, I guess

180
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: you don't have a cone or that no with my fiance,

181
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 1: which which sucks because now they can't get an apartment.

182
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 2: Bro, Yeah, it's not good.

183
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 1: With my fiance being on SSI, which I think is

184
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 1: like disability due to injuries that left him disabled, and

185
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: me making a minimum wage. Her refusing to co sign

186
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: to an apartment essentially left us with no housing options.

187
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: Florida requires applicants to make three times the price of

188
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: the rent on any given place, and rent in our

189
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: area is very high. Finding a roommate situation that accepts

190
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: couples is nigh on impossible, and renting houses were out

191
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: as well, once again due to not having enough income.

192
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: So they're just they're in a tough situation. They don't

193
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: have enough money to get anything rock and a hardy

194
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: bro situation. And like it's not like in the nineteen fifties.

195
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: We're like I got my paycheck today. I think we'll

196
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: buy a house. It's like, bro, like everyone's out here

197
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: trying to fucking survive. Yeah for real, no one can

198
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: house these days. Nah nah no unless you unless you're

199
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: rich and you're going off that okop money.

200
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 2: That's right.

201
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: Just we're not making any money. Yes, come, maybe we

202
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: should make a patreon. I feel like we people would

203
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: support our patreon, right.

204
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. Put in the comments if you would

205
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: support our Patreon.

206
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, let us put in the comments. Please. We're broke.

207
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: We're broke. We're very broke. My fiance's mother's behavior worsened.

208
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: With nowhere to go, we jump ship and moved to

209
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: a local hotel. But only three months of this drained

210
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: our finances because hotels damn expensive.

211
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 2: Why would you, I guess I get it's hard, but

212
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,119
Speaker 2: why hotel? Because hotels are like at such a premium.

213
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 2: I would do. I would do like a room in

214
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 2: someone's house on Craigslist. That's a that's a hack for anyone.

215
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 2: That's the move, that's a move to.

216
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: Actually, I need to, I need to talk. One of

217
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: my friends, Mike, is probably the best traveler I know,

218
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: and he literally travels for free everywhere. Wow, and us

219
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: just this app called Couchsurfer. Oh, or you can stay

220
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 1: anywhere for free, right right right. You have to build

221
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 1: up like credibility or whatever on the app. But like

222
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: he was literally in Kyrgyzstan for the past three months,

223
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 1: riding horses through these k planes. Yeah Krgzstan. Wow, it's

224
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere.

225
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: I feel like I've never actually heard Yeah Krgyzstan.

226
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 1: I only heard of it before.

227
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: Kurdistan, Kirrgustan, Kirgustan. I don't know about, No Kurk.

00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: By the way, if anyone wants to look it up, that's.

Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, the.

236
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, wow, that's crazy. It's just like pure nature. Wow,

237
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 2: that's that's all all that is Krgyzstan.

238
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: Wow. Dang for the chat like this is my friend Mike,

239
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: or for the for everyone.

240
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: Come here.

241
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: I can see that close enough. But anyway, I Mike

242
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: you on Instagram if you want to check it out.

243
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: So uh, it drained as finances. I totally to that

244
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: plan this. We then couchsurfed with some of my fiance's acquaintances,

245
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: but a lot of them were not good people and

246
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: we were used and stolen from several times. Those eight friends. Bro, No,

247
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: all right, this actually just kind of gets sad. We

248
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: ended up sleeping in the deep freezer of an abandoned

249
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: Hooters until the building was almost torn down in us

250
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: by construction workers one day. Oh my gosh, dude, does

251
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 1: not sound like a.

252
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 2: Hoot now, the antithesis of a hoot.

253
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: After that, my fiance's mother bought us a tent. How

254
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: nice it for a fucking tent? And we ended up

255
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: living in the woods. Well, I tried to hold down

256
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: a job. See, camping is nice and all, but camping

257
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: for Bible is less nice. Bro.

258
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: Also, what what mother is like? Hey, get out of

259
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 2: my house. I'm gonna make you sleep in a freezer

260
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: and sleep in the woods like.

261
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: Hell, terrible mother, a terrible mom.

262
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 2: Awful.

263
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: There's there's some crap going on beneath the surface that

264
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: probably hasn't covered in this post. But damn yeah, I'm

265
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: just I'm just grateful for my mom.

266
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 2: Man, true our moms.

267
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: I've met John's mother. My mom's momaly never do that

268
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: to John.

269
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 2: She really would never. So short story, we we did

270
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 2: a speaking gig together in Nashville and my mom literally

271
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 2: came out to see Dave Ramsey. But also, yeah, and

272
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 2: she drove us everywhere. Yhere, She's a real one.

273
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: She is my favorite. My favorite encounter with John's mom

274
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: was when she was talking about movies and she was like, Oh,

275
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 1: I forgot what movie it was, but let's just say like, oh,

276
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: for the for the purpose of conversation. Oh, I love

277
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: that new movie Dune, but I didn't like all the

278
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: swearing too much.

279
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 2: She says she has her her distinction is she's fine

280
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 2: with swearing in the movie as long as it's germane

281
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: to the plot. That is the key. It must be

282
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 2: germane to the plots.

283
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 1: I love that.

284
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 2: Shout out to my mom by the way she she

285
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 2: watches and comments on these sometimes.

286
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, John's Bob is literally the nicest person I know.

287
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 2: She's She's super awesome.

288
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 1: Shout out. Okay, uh we will make it, guys, like

289
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: we're good fos.

290
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: I saddled Sam up with a fat one.

291
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: We've been homeless on and off for two years now,

292
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: two years crazy time. I've been attacked twice because being

293
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: homeless has put us in dangerous and unsafe situations. I've

294
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: witnessed someone almost shoot my spouse and the fiance's mother

295
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: didn't care, didn't care.

296
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 2: Insane.

297
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: It seemed like she enjoyed watching us suffer.

298
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 2: That's real, like really bad mental Yeah.

299
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: Finally, in early twenty twenty, when we were practically begging

300
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: on our knees, fiance's mother signed on our apartment, a

301
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: two bedroom model we couldn't afford, but she insisted it

302
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: was death or nothing. But after everything was finalized, she

303
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: told us, uh, you can't have roommates. We had to

304
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: try and keep ourselves afloat during the pandemic, something that

305
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: ruined our finances more than they already were ruined. And

306
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: when our lease ended in April, fiance's mom insisted she

307
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: had fulfilled her promise, so she had no obligation to

308
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: help us, even if that action co signed us to

309
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 1: the streets again. We're homeless again now, and she continues

310
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: to lie about us to the rest of the family,

311
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: saying we ruined the apartment, which we left in perfect condition,

312
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: and saying that's the reason she won't co sign for

313
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: us again. To tie up the story, I found out

314
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: recently that refusing to co sign and watching our finances

315
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: dwindle was very much intentional on the mother's part. During

316
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: the weekend, my fiance and I went to the hotel

317
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: for a week and escape. His mother went to a

318
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: family and get together. We weren't invited to this event

319
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: because my fiance has the social identity disorder in addition

320
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: to his physical limitations, and the rest of the family

321
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: ostracizes him because he's crazy. I mean, but he's well

322
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: behaved and it all works together, So this is like,

323
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: seems really ridiculous doing you know, his best best that situation,

324
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: but they've treated him this way as whole life. During

325
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: the family event, someone joked that I probably had more

326
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: money than my fiance's mother, which I don't know is

327
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: true because the woman gets five thousand dollars a month

328
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: due to a combination of retirement pension and money she

329
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: inherited from her late husband, so I severely doubt it.

330
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: According to a family member, She calmly said in response,

331
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: let's see how much money that bad word for a

332
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: gay person has when I'm done with her. WHOA, Oh

333
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: my gosh, this is a shit situation.

334
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is really.

335
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: So bricking shitty. I can't even imagine. I can't even imagine.

336
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: Op is definitely like, I mean, shout out to you

337
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: and your significant other because you have both been through

338
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 2: so much and yeah, impressive how you've just like kind

339
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 2: of pushed through it.

340
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. And also OP is LGBTQ, so I imagine that probably

341
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: it seems like that has something to do with how

342
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 1: they're being treated, yep. And but there are resources to

343
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: help with that. And like there's also a lot of churches,

344
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: especially in the Orlando area, that are LGBTQ family I

345
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 1: saw some comments pointing OP in that direction, So it

346
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: seems like OP might get the help that they need.

347
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 2: I definitely definitely hope.

348
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: So, yeah,
