Speaker 1: If you're looking to catch up, be it's Josh Johnson
Speaker 1: Comedy on Everything Now to get into the episode. Today,
Speaker 1: we're talking about chains versus grills, which I'm currently wearing both. Yeah. No, no,
Speaker 1: I appreciate you taking the theme on. I appreciate you really,
Speaker 1: uh submerging yourself in the topic. But my life, I'm
Speaker 1: on the side of of chains because I think grills
Speaker 1: just that they don't do it for me. They don't
Speaker 1: make sense to me. I don't really enjoy them at all.
Speaker 1: I know you have a chain. I had a chain.
Speaker 1: I've never seen you wear jewelry. I don't wear much jewelry,
Speaker 1: but I do change. I've never seen you wear a
Speaker 1: stitch of metal on your body. I've got real jewelry,
Speaker 1: I got fake jewelry, and under saying well, it's just
Speaker 1: I've got costume jewelry. You know what I mean. It's
Speaker 1: like all your brains can't be gold. Who am I
Speaker 1: if I wanted to be a drug I've been a
Speaker 1: drug dealer's girlfriend. No, my girlfriend. Listen. I didn't get
Speaker 1: anything out of it other than very annoyed. It's a
Speaker 1: good d but on the most part he's an idiot. Um.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so see I no, I see, I see
Speaker 1: what you're wearing my grill. I see it, but the
Speaker 1: grill that I have, I didn't go to the gum. Um.
Speaker 1: What I did is basically it's like an outline along
Speaker 1: the bottom. Oh yeah, I see it, um, and then
Speaker 1: there's diamonds in between wherever the I guess wherever, like
Speaker 1: the space between a space between a tooth. But like,
Speaker 1: so basically it looks like I want to say, like
Speaker 1: drapes for like a balance. So it's almost like an
Speaker 1: outline of all my teeth under knees. It's top six teeth.
Speaker 1: And then there's a diamond in between every tooth. And
Speaker 1: I was like, maybe I should have done it where
Speaker 1: it was a diamond in front of every tooth, but
Speaker 1: I was like, I wanted to be like low key
Speaker 1: because the original design was diamonds across. I'm like, I'm not, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this person I'm with you, and this thing, your grill
Speaker 1: does not bother me the way that you have. You've
Speaker 1: had it done. What this is? This is I guess
Speaker 1: where I where I get caught up with grills. Why
Speaker 1: I think chains are superior? All right, you can accentuate you, you.
Speaker 1: You can express yourself just as much, if not more,
Speaker 1: with the bottom of a chain with a jewelry hanging
Speaker 1: down as you can with a grill. A grill. It's
Speaker 1: one of those things where let's say we're in a
Speaker 1: situation where, um, you go to the doctor. I actually
Speaker 1: saw Derek last night and was talking to him about
Speaker 1: this exact thing. Let's say you go to the doctor,
Speaker 1: all right, and your doctor, you've got a cool doctor,
Speaker 1: you got you gotta laid back doctor, and he happens
Speaker 1: to have on a chain. All right, my man is flaw.
Speaker 1: My man is doing well in life. He's after he's
Speaker 1: got a change. If I go to the doctor, if
Speaker 1: I go to the person that's the hippocratic oath, they
Speaker 1: have a grill in their mouth. I'm following claims. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you right now, I'm telling you right now, that's
Speaker 1: not gonna be good medical care that you get with
Speaker 1: a grill all the way in the mouth, just top
Speaker 1: and bottoms or just bottoms. I don't I don't know
Speaker 1: if there's even a distinction that needs to be made,
Speaker 1: because for me, he'll be he'll be grabbing the popsicle
Speaker 1: stick being like go. I'm like, no, you go, what
Speaker 1: is in your mouth right now? Honestly, I am not
Speaker 1: a fan. If it comes to a doctor, like a
Speaker 1: medical doctor, like someone who's out here with a d
Speaker 1: E A license, like someone who can prescribe all of
Speaker 1: the drugs, I don't want to wear it either. I
Speaker 1: don't want to see a flashy ass doctor drive your
Speaker 1: Porsche do whatever. I don't want to see a doctor
Speaker 1: with a pinky a doctor with a pinky ring. If
Speaker 1: I see a Dina collegist with a pinky ring, I'm
Speaker 1: leaving the fucking I'm done. I'm out. I'm out with
Speaker 1: a monogram pinky ring. No, I'm out chain grill. If
Speaker 1: I see a doctor wearing flashy jewel ring coming to
Speaker 1: get me, I'm just I'm gonna be concerned. It depends
Speaker 1: on the kind of doctor that it is, because if
Speaker 1: you go to a dentist, well, if you go to
Speaker 1: a dentist and they have a grill in. This is
Speaker 1: just hilarious. Also, uh, the last time I went to
Speaker 1: the dentist, this man cleans the teeth or whatever, and
Speaker 1: he says to me, oh, I'm concerned about your weight.
Speaker 1: And I said, excuse me, and he's like, yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: concerned about your way to recommend that you lose weight.
Speaker 1: I said, sir, you were out of your jurisdiction. And
Speaker 1: he was like what I said, You're out of your jurisdiction.
Speaker 1: Anything that's below my neck, you're out of your jurisdiction.
Speaker 1: And he goes, I'm a doctor, and I said, you're
Speaker 1: a dentist. Jeez, I'm glad he was done in your
Speaker 1: mouth with He's glad he was done, Oh, what the
Speaker 1: fund is wrong with you? I'm like, star, He was
Speaker 1: like what. I was like, your job is where the
Speaker 1: food starts, not where it ends up. But it's none
Speaker 1: of you. You're out of your jurisdiction. Did he give
Speaker 1: you any reasoning? Did he did he say anything? He said,
Speaker 1: just on my doctor actually be telling you to lose weight.
Speaker 1: I said, you're out of your jurisdiction. You have crossed
Speaker 1: county lines. I have a doctor, dar dentist funk out
Speaker 1: of here. I know a lot of people that's gonna
Speaker 1: be mad. But you know you never had dentist call
Speaker 1: You've had uh. I'm like, bro, you're trying to smash
Speaker 1: or what what are you doing? You're trying to I
Speaker 1: know I'm not too heavy for this chair. The hydraulics work,
Speaker 1: So what are you trying to say? Doc? What do
Speaker 1: you want? Baby? This is wild? But when it comes
Speaker 1: to grill, No, if I see a doctor with too
Speaker 1: much jewelry on, if you see a dentist with a
Speaker 1: grill in I'm a respect it because that's his lane,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be wild and I'm gonna be like, this
Speaker 1: is when I get to go to doctor in Miami.
Speaker 1: But to go to a dentist in Liberty City, my
Speaker 1: outside of Miami. It's got a grill, That's fine, it's
Speaker 1: where am I Where this dentist has this grill? Like
Speaker 1: if I'm in most places in Atlanta and if its
Speaker 1: Docca isn't a grill, or Texas someone like Houston or
Speaker 1: some ship dennist hasn't a grill. Okay. If I am
Speaker 1: in Iowa, if I'm a nantucket, are you having I
Speaker 1: have questions and concerns right. Also a very fun story
Speaker 1: about Jack Knight last year when he was in town.
Speaker 1: Are filming Sam's show, uh pause with Sam j on HBO.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. Um me and Josh are both on it.
Speaker 1: I had on my black Air Forces, which people have
Speaker 1: already decided as a problem, Uh, my black Air Forces,
Speaker 1: my grill, and my camel jacket. And I'm standing there
Speaker 1: just at the bar, and I turned around because Jacke's
Speaker 1: trying to say some about my air forces. And I
Speaker 1: turned around to Jacko's way, you got in a grill,
Speaker 1: air forces and a camel jacket. Nigga, you can't be trusted.
Speaker 1: What's going on right now? And I was like, I
Speaker 1: hear you. But also you were just looking at a
Speaker 1: person who's from Atlanta, Georgia. Like that's all this says
Speaker 1: the world in the air force to say Atlanta, but
Speaker 1: the camel's jacket says Georgia. I guess if you put
Speaker 1: them together, they go together. But like this is this
Speaker 1: is this is the thing that trips me up about
Speaker 1: grills and trains. Let's talk about authenticity for a second.
Speaker 1: What do you mean they gotta be real because you're grill,
Speaker 1: because there's the last thing you need is a grill
Speaker 1: made of a non precious like note platinum. They aren't
Speaker 1: all made of a precious metal. So then when you
Speaker 1: have a fake chain, the worst that's gonna happen is
Speaker 1: that it turns your skin little green. Maybe you smell
Speaker 1: a little bit whatever, right, smell, Yeah, they I think
Speaker 1: that would sweat. Some of those fake chains can like
Speaker 1: give off a little bit of a metally scent, Okay,
Speaker 1: And then with a fake grill, that's your mouth, I
Speaker 1: hear you. I can say that I at one point
Speaker 1: did have a fake grill just because it was it
Speaker 1: was like it was it was a novelty grill. You
Speaker 1: weren't supposed to wear it for a long amount of time.
Speaker 1: There was this uh hood only way I can describe it,
Speaker 1: do you know what's friends with? The only can describe
Speaker 1: with a hood Mexican store. This was in like the
Speaker 1: Latino a part of Stamp but on the Mexican area
Speaker 1: and in Highway, and so the store had like a
Speaker 1: lot of soccer jerseys and a lot of like Tahano clothing.
Speaker 1: But then so and then like the cowboy boots from
Speaker 1: like the Ostrich boots, the cactus boots, the cowboy hats,
Speaker 1: the shirts with um the version that gud a loupe
Speaker 1: on it. But then there was this huge rack, spinning
Speaker 1: rack of just grills and they were ten dollars. They
Speaker 1: had all kinds of stones in them right there, all
Speaker 1: Ryan stones. It's all fake. And when you got it,
Speaker 1: it came with this little piece of wax. So you
Speaker 1: put the wax in hot water, and then you would
Speaker 1: put it in the grill, and then you put in
Speaker 1: your mouth, and that's how you would fit it to
Speaker 1: your mouth. I still have it. And I had like
Speaker 1: a row of like clear stones and roll turquoise stones,
Speaker 1: roll clear stones. Going to straight across we saw one
Speaker 1: that looked like stained glass windows were like on each twoth.
Speaker 1: It was like a little like red stone or clear
Speaker 1: song cross. So peep the change the grill game. It's
Speaker 1: so deep people, so pressed oka you have a grill?
Speaker 1: You did you say hot water? You would put the
Speaker 1: piece of wax in hot water to melt it, not
Speaker 1: to melt it, but to make it soft. And then
Speaker 1: you put that in the grill and you put that
Speaker 1: in your mouth like on your teeth. And I say,
Speaker 1: you would make the grill snug to your teeth was
Speaker 1: just your generic fit. So it's the same way that
Speaker 1: you get your mouth guard ready when you're gonna box.
Speaker 1: Is that it? Yeah? Yeah, you throw that thing in
Speaker 1: some hot water, you bite down. Let's sit for a
Speaker 1: little bit. I've never boxed before because I value my face. No,
Speaker 1: I'm with you, probably still want to have it even
Speaker 1: if you weren't sparring. Just like, even if you were
Speaker 1: like hitting the bags. You know, you never know what
Speaker 1: could happen. You gonna hit your own self in the mouth.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I've seen some very unskilled people train.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you like watching videos? Um? So yeah, so
Speaker 1: you like you like watching wild as videos. I've never
Speaker 1: understood your dislike, your disdain, your animosity. Come on, s
Speaker 1: a t words, Come on the saurus uh, come through
Speaker 1: the sus come through the saurus um. Also in a
Speaker 1: fun word, there's an episode of Arthur where dw just
Speaker 1: thinks that the sours is just the sourrous um, which
Speaker 1: just thinks it's a dinosaur that knows words. And I
Speaker 1: was like, honestly, I'm so glad because I'm not the
Speaker 1: first person that ever thought this. I just never understood
Speaker 1: your dislike, disdained, animosity, your true uh malice, that you
Speaker 1: have the right word. But why you dislike the grill
Speaker 1: so much? It's just fun. I'll explain it right now.
Speaker 1: I'll give give you an indication right now. So let's
Speaker 1: say someone has a heavy chain. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: straight up downsides for a second of both. Right, Let's
Speaker 1: say someone has a heavy chain that they're just not
Speaker 1: made for. You know, like, I'm the type of person
Speaker 1: i'd like to think that I'm self aware. Who knows
Speaker 1: other people would have to tell me that you're yelware?
Speaker 1: How self aware you are. You're very self aware. So
Speaker 1: I don't go around trying to even as I've tried
Speaker 1: to gain weight and muscle in the years, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to be that big because I'm not that tall.
Speaker 1: So then if I get we would telling you were
Speaker 1: trying to be huge. Yeah, I was joking. Oh Ma,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. It's been so hard for me
Speaker 1: to just be like this, Nick is never going to
Speaker 1: be huge. Wow. Wow, you don't believe at all. All
Speaker 1: I really try to do. I'm trying to gain ten
Speaker 1: more pounds I have now and keep that for the
Speaker 1: rest of my days. This is why metabolism is a bastard,
Speaker 1: because I can gain ten pounds, but I just breathe,
Speaker 1: and um. Bodies aren't fair first, But I wanted to
Speaker 1: be ten pounds of like clean cut, just lean muscle,
Speaker 1: just you know, you know, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: That already probably two percent body. If I was too
Speaker 1: percent body fat of cold would kill me. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm like eleven, shut the funk up. Yeah, but I'm
Speaker 1: also skinny right now. I lost all my muscle at
Speaker 1: the pandemic. Even skinny forever. There's a little stick in
Speaker 1: there where I would have liked to believe I was built.
Speaker 1: But all right, whatever, you're not now. It's really not
Speaker 1: even the point I just throw out, you're fined, You're fine.
Speaker 1: I took us all this wrong. This is let me
Speaker 1: get us back on track. So when it comes to
Speaker 1: the self awareness that takes to wear the right chain,
Speaker 1: you don't want to be a little guy with a
Speaker 1: big chain. You don't want to be one of those
Speaker 1: little dudes that's just like like hunched over because the
Speaker 1: chain is too it's too icy. Alright, you're frozen, You're
Speaker 1: frozen over. You have hypothermia in your neck, and it's
Speaker 1: not sexy. It's not like women. It's not like women.
Speaker 1: See a dude with a beautiful, beautiful chain but can't
Speaker 1: hold it up with his neck and go, oh, that's
Speaker 1: the one I want, the one that's clearly bad with
Speaker 1: money and body. I do wonder when I ever I
Speaker 1: see those really thick change with diamonds all in them, Like,
Speaker 1: how the funk much did this chain cost? You don't
Speaker 1: have a car, It clearly cost the car. Clearly, oh
Speaker 1: truly the car. The trade is at least a car. Man.
Speaker 1: I I just can't like my chain. I had to
Speaker 1: hook up to my homeboy from some people he grew
Speaker 1: up with. M hmm, sorry, I deep discount on my chain. Also,
Speaker 1: my girl didn't go up to the dumps, so it
Speaker 1: was just less gold. So it was just less money,
Speaker 1: right because I'm on the classic Danny grill. It was
Speaker 1: funny because I came on when I showed my mother
Speaker 1: and my mother and my ha, I can't what is
Speaker 1: your My mom and my mother was like my daughter
Speaker 1: just really like reels, and she just she just couldn't
Speaker 1: understand and why I was so pressed about this. But
Speaker 1: I bought it during the pandemic because we all needed
Speaker 1: little things to make us happy. Um it was. It
Speaker 1: was truly extremely affordable with the discounts. That's why I
Speaker 1: got a time. But there's been more times where I've
Speaker 1: seen someone with a chain. No where I've seen a
Speaker 1: man with a chain or a grill and just been like,
Speaker 1: how can you afford this? Because everything else you're showing
Speaker 1: me tells me that you can't afford your mouth. It's
Speaker 1: almost like in a video game where the staff get
Speaker 1: really high, but for only one attribute. Your health is
Speaker 1: really hard. Yeah, you're playing bio Kart and you have
Speaker 1: your acceleration at the highest level, but your speed is low,
Speaker 1: your weight is low. You're like, you've messed up. I
Speaker 1: think there's supposed to be some sort of balance here.
Speaker 1: You have no weapons, you have no am like, you
Speaker 1: have nothing to defend yourself. Actually no, you would if
Speaker 1: your chain is that nice, you would have weapons to
Speaker 1: defend yourself. Like a Flavor Flavor situation where it was like, oh,
Speaker 1: his chain are so big, he just became a clock.
Speaker 1: It's just a clock. We thought it was ridiculous because
Speaker 1: we've all seen somebody in chains and then like, what
Speaker 1: the what the fuck. I don't understand why, like humans
Speaker 1: as a whole, because like all races of people, all
Speaker 1: backgrounds of people funk with chains. I don't know how
Speaker 1: this came about, but it was just like I was like,
Speaker 1: all right, let me get this little loop those metal
Speaker 1: We'll put that around the nick Because chains makes sense,
Speaker 1: all right, they hang from your neck. You don't have
Speaker 1: to worry about them. There's there's a reason we don't
Speaker 1: have chains hanging from one arm. It's gonna fall off.
Speaker 1: There's a reason we don't have chains hanging from the waist.
Speaker 1: That's what a belt is for. You know. There's there's
Speaker 1: belly chains. You didn't go through the early nineties, I
Speaker 1: mean like nineties, early two thousands. Those to me don't
Speaker 1: like actually scream chain like like those those for me
Speaker 1: are just like a hook up on a belly button ring.
Speaker 1: I hear you. I'm waiting for waste beats to go Like,
Speaker 1: waste beads are real big right now. I'm just waiting
Speaker 1: for them to go metal. That's what I'm waiting for,
Speaker 1: waste beats. I'm waiting for waste beads just become waste chains.
Speaker 1: So you seeing that the chain makes sense. See this thing,
Speaker 1: the the chain. To borrow from you from our our
Speaker 1: last recording, you know that the chain is superior because
Speaker 1: it goes across all cultures, like you said, just like
Speaker 1: how you know chicken soup. Okay, I think I think
Speaker 1: that the grill is a very particular thing because it
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense for most people, so quick story. The
Speaker 1: same way that sometimes you see a guy with a
Speaker 1: chain that he can't really keep up, look like you've
Speaker 1: got too many Morty Graw beats. The next time I
Speaker 1: see with a budget chairs, I want to go. And
Speaker 1: that's what's leaning over the other thing that's at play here.
Speaker 1: The other thing that we have to keep in mind
Speaker 1: is that the same goes for grills and quick story.
Speaker 1: When I was young, I knew a kid that worked
Speaker 1: at UM the movie theater. Yeah yeah, he had a
Speaker 1: grill okay, and his grill I don't know the quality.
Speaker 1: I actually I won't. I won't even speak to it.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was fake or real. All
Speaker 1: I know is it seemed to have set him back
Speaker 1: quite a lot. Uh, quite a lot of his money
Speaker 1: went to the gump was like one of those classic
Speaker 1: remember those party like a rock Star era grills. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think so okay where it's like it has that
Speaker 1: very flowy, gold drippy look instead of just being like
Speaker 1: it looks like just a solid gold bar almost but
Speaker 1: with a little bit of design in it. Okay. So
Speaker 1: he had one of those, and I don't know who
Speaker 1: he went to. I don't know how it was done,
Speaker 1: but it was not fitted properly for his mouth. So
Speaker 1: it gave him both when it was in at least
Speaker 1: when it was in his mouth, it gave a lisp
Speaker 1: and it gave a whistle. And the whistle was very unfortunate,
Speaker 1: the whistle the whistle because you never knew when the
Speaker 1: whistle was coming, because the whistle wouldn't come with sss.
Speaker 1: That was a lisp. The whistle would come at random times,
Speaker 1: and that, for me, a chain will never do you
Speaker 1: like that he made a choice to where someone else's grill.
Speaker 1: I don't know what shop he went to, but I
Speaker 1: feel like this was not his grill that I'm telling
Speaker 1: you that was, and I'm telling you I feel like
Speaker 1: that this was not. I don't feel like it's setting
Speaker 1: him back. I feel like he went to and pawn
Speaker 1: shops are always very I wouldn't never buy anything out
Speaker 1: of a pawn shop because you were catching someone at
Speaker 1: their worst, Like, listen, I just need a couple of dollars.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put my wedding ring in here, get a
Speaker 1: couple of dollars, and then I'm gonna come back and
Speaker 1: get it. And a lot of times people can't come
Speaker 1: back and get it. Stereo equipment, yeah they forget as well,
Speaker 1: they'll forget it or they can really just can't. He's
Speaker 1: like an interest you have to pay to get your
Speaker 1: stuff back because it basically it's a predatory loan. Obviously,
Speaker 1: so I will never buy anything out of a pawn
Speaker 1: shop because it was like, oh, this was someone in
Speaker 1: a dire straight Yeah, and so that's where he got
Speaker 1: this girl from. I don't believe. I cannot believe. He
Speaker 1: was at the box office just so five for Fantastic
Speaker 1: Miss the Fox, like nod stopped. And it was crazy
Speaker 1: because the couple of years that I knew him where
Speaker 1: he had that grill. There were a lot of s
Speaker 1: movies that came out, a lot of Star Wars and
Speaker 1: then you know it's crazy, but it changes tone of
Speaker 1: voice as well. He couldn't talk around the grill. So
Speaker 1: then when he took the grill out, my bass voice
Speaker 1: was deeper, Like that's what I'm saying, Like, you don't
Speaker 1: tell me he was like the style wasn't then forth
Speaker 1: for Star Wars like don't do me, Like don't I'm
Speaker 1: telling you. I'm telling you this dude. His grill did
Speaker 1: him so dirty every day. Hold on, let me see
Speaker 1: what mine does. Mine made me talk different. You do
Speaker 1: have to learn how to talk around it, yeah, but
Speaker 1: he clearly didn't in years that he had it. So
Speaker 1: maybe he couldn't talk around it because it wasn't his.
Speaker 1: Because also, I feel like if he brought the base
Speaker 1: to that grill, he was scared it would pop out.
Speaker 1: Josh Johnson, I'm just saying, like if he if he
Speaker 1: spoke at his regular register and he was nervous that
Speaker 1: because that grill. Like and I'm not trying to put
Speaker 1: my bad on blasts or anything. That's why you already
Speaker 1: put him on blast. But I'm just saying his grill
Speaker 1: was like the sagging pants of grills, Like it was
Speaker 1: like that thing was the pants? Was it the sagging
Speaker 1: pants or it? When you see a kid on picture
Speaker 1: your day and his dad's suit the reason that I
Speaker 1: would say it was sagging pants, it's because it felt
Speaker 1: like he was always adjusting it in his mouth. See,
Speaker 1: when I got mine done, they take like they take
Speaker 1: a They take a mold of your teeth, like a
Speaker 1: true mold. You sit there for ten minutes it cures.
Speaker 1: They pour a plaster in it, and then they use
Speaker 1: wax too. Because I was sitting there with the dude,
Speaker 1: there was soccers that the guy who was making it.
Speaker 1: I went to Gabrielon and got my uh girl done.
Speaker 1: And so they take the mold of your teeth and
Speaker 1: then he uses wax to create what the what the
Speaker 1: girl will become. And so they do the mold on
Speaker 1: your usually wax on your teeth to design it. Put
Speaker 1: in little places where the you know, any stones or
Speaker 1: whatever goes. They put that in like the mold, and
Speaker 1: then they pour golden and wherever the wax, the wax
Speaker 1: melts out, it almost like evaporates, and then the gold
Speaker 1: gold and where the wax was roy the kid is.
Speaker 1: But I can say there might not be other cultures
Speaker 1: that do grills, but there are a lot of other
Speaker 1: cultures that do gold and silver teeth. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: think most of any of those cultures are European um.
Speaker 1: But once you get out of Europe, like I grew
Speaker 1: up with a lot of kids that had from um
Speaker 1: El Zavador, Mexico. They had them silver teeth and silver
Speaker 1: that was a lot of silver teeth. There might be
Speaker 1: one's just one tooth. In Americans, Black Americans, it was like, listen,
Speaker 1: why would I have one gold tooth when I could
Speaker 1: have six across the top that our gold. And to
Speaker 1: be better with my dental hygiene, I will make these
Speaker 1: gold teeth removable because I remember growing up somebody had
Speaker 1: a gold tooth. A lot of times the tooth would
Speaker 1: rot on the inside. So the thing about a grill,
Speaker 1: because you think is like you can get a cap
Speaker 1: done that's removable. So a grill all it did was
Speaker 1: it gave you the best because like you can't onlying
Speaker 1: you can drink and you're having a grill with water,
Speaker 1: you can't eat anything because your teeth are covered and
Speaker 1: got like you can't you can't bite into anything when
Speaker 1: you're having a grill, So you don't want to bite
Speaker 1: into an apple and lose a diamond like a joke.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure a little wayne ate with his grill
Speaker 1: in that was that whole new story that he didn't
Speaker 1: take it off for like a week or something like that.
Speaker 1: It feels like propaganda and lies. Let me see, I'll
Speaker 1: look it up right now, because maybe I'm wrong. I
Speaker 1: don't want to lie a little way because that's a
Speaker 1: shame that your friend and his wasn't like, because like
Speaker 1: the guy gave you was telling me like, you have
Speaker 1: to make it a little bit like when you have
Speaker 1: when you make a grill, you make it tight so
Speaker 1: it doesn't fall out while someone is talking. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm starting to think this is telling you this. I'm
Speaker 1: glad we talked about because it's the first time I've
Speaker 1: ever been like maybe that was someone else's grill that
Speaker 1: occurred to me the entire time. But I would see
Speaker 1: him and talk to him and be like poor thing,
Speaker 1: Like I would never you give my blessed art poor thing,
Speaker 1: because he would just be over here like, so what
Speaker 1: do y'all doings Like that's not even his voice. That's
Speaker 1: a shame. It's like he put on someone else's whole mouth.
Speaker 1: Like maybe it's one of those situations where it's like
Speaker 1: one of those horror movies where you you know, have
Speaker 1: you get someone's you know, ring or something like that,
Speaker 1: and then you just putsessed by that person. Maybe he
Speaker 1: got the voice of whoever that grill originally belong to.
Speaker 1: I am making sure that I am enunciating with this
Speaker 1: end because I don't want to create my own lisp situation. Oh,
Speaker 1: it looks like Little Wayne has left his grill in permanently.
Speaker 1: Those are just gold teeth, I think, Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: diamond teth, it says American rapper Little Wayne has revealed
Speaker 1: that he takes good care of his diamond teeth by
Speaker 1: brushing them every morning, noon, and night. Yeah, they're in
Speaker 1: his teeth permanently. Cannot remove them. He has to be
Speaker 1: careful with what he eats and cleans them after every meal. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a different that's a different thing. I thought that
Speaker 1: he had a grill in this whole time. Is it
Speaker 1: because it's flashy that it's not something that you're a
Speaker 1: fan of, Because I I, I mean, I'm very much
Speaker 1: who I am, So you know me, it's I have
Speaker 1: a lot of rings on, whether they're you know, costume
Speaker 1: or I respect flashy. I I don't mind flashy at all. Right,
Speaker 1: So you know, I think gets me is uh, it
Speaker 1: is a hygiene thing that the hygiene is what holding
Speaker 1: you up. A little bit of it is the hygiene.
Speaker 1: And I think I've just watched people have bad real experiences.
Speaker 1: I had a friend this is this is a much
Speaker 1: smaller thing. This is not that big of a deal.
Speaker 1: But I had a fraid of bite his lip with
Speaker 1: with his grill in and he got himself pretty good,
Speaker 1: like I mean to talk. The rest of the time
Speaker 1: we ranging out like I don't even know how. He
Speaker 1: had one of the vampire things though those a little
Speaker 1: like it wasn't It wasn't like the full long canine
Speaker 1: type vampire thing. It was really little and it was
Speaker 1: only a little bit longer than his actual tooth was,
Speaker 1: So it's like it would be hard to notice unless
Speaker 1: he smiled. Why, but he had the little bit of
Speaker 1: vampire like edge to the ends of the grill. And
Speaker 1: then at one point he just I don't know if
Speaker 1: he was talking or thinking, but he just bit his
Speaker 1: own lip and he was not having a good time
Speaker 1: after that. I mean, the time you've been in your
Speaker 1: own lip or just like I hate everything if you
Speaker 1: get it with a gold dagger in your mouth, because
Speaker 1: that's like the because like usually when you bite like
Speaker 1: your cheek or something where you're like eating, that's different,
Speaker 1: but like really just stabbing yourself in the level where
Speaker 1: you bite that like edge, that's real close to the lift.
Speaker 1: Have you ever got your grill stuck? There's a time
Speaker 1: where you whe where I thought it was stuck, and
Speaker 1: you just panic for a second, and then I was
Speaker 1: just like, I know, this isn't stuck. I just need
Speaker 1: to relax. But I was like, I'm trying to go
Speaker 1: to sleep. I thought about getting one that was lepper
Speaker 1: print lepper print grill. Yeah, so i'd be up to
Speaker 1: the gums and then it would be did you would
Speaker 1: use enamel like to paint on the design. This is
Speaker 1: why I think a chain is superior. All Right, if
Speaker 1: you want to express yourself, if you want, if you
Speaker 1: want to have the thing that's your favorite out there,
Speaker 1: allowed for people to see you, put on a chain
Speaker 1: because the chain could be seen from far away. The grill.
Speaker 1: I gotta get right up close. I got to know you, really,
Speaker 1: I got to really know you. Yes, yes, people is
Speaker 1: a people snatch chains. People don't snatch grills. Okay, but
Speaker 1: but let's let's let's no, I'll talk about that. That
Speaker 1: level of deficiency of both. Okay, no person that I've
Speaker 1: ever seen, rapper or otherwise looks cool give their chain snatch.
Speaker 1: We all look like little kids that get straggled at
Speaker 1: the supermarket. My mom is, you know, it's it's all debos.
Speaker 1: My grandmama got me nat chain right. So I remember,
Speaker 1: because I haven't been on the train a lot, but
Speaker 1: I remember being I was shooting comedy Knockout and I
Speaker 1: was going to meet somebody. So this is like Harlem
Speaker 1: Spanish Harlem. And I go and it's like summertime. I
Speaker 1: think it's like twenty the summer's twenties, sixteen, I believe.
Speaker 1: And I'm going to get on the train very recredgingly,
Speaker 1: and I see this rolling message that says, attention, it
Speaker 1: has changed snatching season. Don't be flashy with your jewelry.
Speaker 1: And I was like, first of all, I thought Christmas
Speaker 1: would change snatching season. I did not know that the
Speaker 1: dead of July. I mean, I guess anytime. I mean
Speaker 1: change snatching this year round, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But just let's see a message that said it is
Speaker 1: chain snatching season, do not be flashy with your jewelry.
Speaker 1: The other thing about change is that you can I
Speaker 1: have seen a man wear a chain that is too
Speaker 1: thin for him. I have seen men in change that
Speaker 1: was too big for them. Like I've never seen a
Speaker 1: woman in a chain or just like sis even want
Speaker 1: it's ultra thick there, but there's a there's a different
Speaker 1: there's just the way that the thickness sat woman getting
Speaker 1: made sense on her. But I have seen big men
Speaker 1: with very thin they just time. I don't like, sir,
Speaker 1: where did you get this gold dental floss? Because on me,
Speaker 1: it's a regular change. I'm a dainty lady right on
Speaker 1: this grown ass man. Once you hit a certain size,
Speaker 1: you have to think about what the how the sizes
Speaker 1: of things work. You see what I mean? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that you actually should not have to me, you
Speaker 1: shouldn't have a chain that is more than half an
Speaker 1: inch thicker than the veins in your neck, because this
Speaker 1: is where men get into trouble. This is where we
Speaker 1: get into a little bit of the like ultra macho,
Speaker 1: long and and thick chain that doesn't really look good
Speaker 1: on you, doesn't really sit well, make your neck bend
Speaker 1: over a little bit. You know, I've seen chains that work.
Speaker 1: There's a gentleman that I am aware of who it's
Speaker 1: like six it's like in the six threes, you know,
Speaker 1: and has the longest chain I have ever seen on anybody.
Speaker 1: And it's so long you think it looks like two chains.
Speaker 1: It looks like to chain. It looks like two chains
Speaker 1: that have been attached end to end. Yeah, because it's
Speaker 1: so long, like you'll never after unhooked, Like like there
Speaker 1: was one day I was so tempted to just stand
Speaker 1: in front of him and put the chain on me
Speaker 1: as well. I mean, when you're that tall, you really
Speaker 1: don't even have to worry about chain snatching because that's
Speaker 1: just hanging. It's just but it like it hangs so
Speaker 1: like it hangs loan over, like it's like the middle.
Speaker 1: It's like it's above his belly button, but it's like
Speaker 1: below his startom. So it's like it's very yeah, and
Speaker 1: I was like this is it hangs like a doorway.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I don't hate it. I mean,
Speaker 1: he seems tall enough to pull it off. It's like
Speaker 1: this was a short guy with that chain that was
Speaker 1: just stepping on it and tripping himself up like a
Speaker 1: looney tune that I think it's because he has a
Speaker 1: long torso. Yeah, because some people get like I have
Speaker 1: long Like I'm not a tall person, right, I'm fine
Speaker 1: for and I'm formally adverteighte for a woman. This bases
Speaker 1: just got bigger than me, and so most of my
Speaker 1: height comes from my legs. Like my torso's nut doesn't
Speaker 1: match to wear like my legs. So my torso wasn't
Speaker 1: that long, So if I had, I don't like a
Speaker 1: really long chain. But also I had, like I used
Speaker 1: to make jewelry and still kind of do um and
Speaker 1: this time is for fun and not for profit. Um.
Speaker 1: So the thing about chains is like I would make chains,
Speaker 1: and I would make the length usually around like twenty
Speaker 1: around twenty inches based on me. That's wrong, my chains
Speaker 1: would me but like sixteen, Like it's too small or whatever,
Speaker 1: too short. I don't like that chain. That just oh
Speaker 1: the just almost like a choker. It's almost like a joker,
Speaker 1: just a little bit looser than a joker. I hate
Speaker 1: that ship because I don't feel like that I'm being
Speaker 1: loosely choked. It's like that Mitch Headberg jokers, like wearing
Speaker 1: a turtle neck. It's like being like lightly choked all there,
Speaker 1: uh and wearing a turtleneck in a backpack. It's like
Speaker 1: trying looks like someone trying to like a small person
Speaker 1: trying to take you down. Also, like my neck is
Speaker 1: not super long because people do have you know, there's
Speaker 1: different links of necks, right, So someone was like a
Speaker 1: really long neck because I'm always very aware of my
Speaker 1: neck because I get to get to a point in
Speaker 1: my joint in my life as a person where I
Speaker 1: feel I worked very hard to try to have a
Speaker 1: neck m because I feel like at one point I
Speaker 1: was close to losing my neck. This is the thing.
Speaker 1: So chain will also accentuate the neck. No no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no no no if you're a person with
Speaker 1: no neck, because I was a nat swing from being
Speaker 1: a person with no neck out here just being a
Speaker 1: straight linebacker. And I have done invasive maneuvers to make
Speaker 1: sure that I am if I'm a neck having American um.
Speaker 1: When you see someone who truly has no nag with
Speaker 1: a chain on, it looks like an optical illusion. What
Speaker 1: is the chain attached to? How is it out here?
Speaker 1: How is it living it's life? So you've seen people
Speaker 1: who change with too small use to people who change
Speaker 1: with too long um your chain hang load. There's a
Speaker 1: wobble to and fro um, which was also a very
Speaker 1: silly song. Have you heard that song? No? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: love that song. It's very silly. It's gonna get stuck
Speaker 1: in my head. Now, don't let it, do it? They
Speaker 1: go the song? You know there's you know there's uh
Speaker 1: Georgia by ludicrous. Think of that. So so you know what,
Speaker 1: Let's put it up now. Don't get mad, now, Negro,
Speaker 1: you have not proven to me you can give it
Speaker 1: to the listener you want to. You have not given
Speaker 1: me adequate evidence to show me why you think that
Speaker 1: the chain are saying it's not in your mouth. Yea,
Speaker 1: that's the only reason you've given me that the chain
Speaker 1: is better than the grill. I feel like you haven't
Speaker 1: seen magnificent grills. So I on your Instagram machine. I'm
Speaker 1: going to send you a website, a Instagram profile from
Speaker 1: where I got my girl from and he is doing
