Wait a second, 0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:53.880 nobody told anyone that we were going away. I forgot 0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:57.640 and you forgot, and um, like Wednesday, I was ready 0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.160 to do a podcast. I'm like, oh, we're not doing one. 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.520 How long did you sit here, oh with the mic 0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:06.480 open waiting for me to turn mine on? Yeah?

Oh you know what. 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:31.800 I tapped my computer right whether the mouse was on 0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:34.560 the microphone logo and I muted it. Sorry, Brodie, did 0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:36.800 you need a crash course in working the equipments? We've 0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:38.560 all been gone for a week.

I accidentally 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:48.200 tapped the mic and muted my button and he's getting 0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:50.360 all snarky with me. But slice is what you didn't know? 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:52.360 What you're gonna know now, which we weren't going to 0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:54.919 tell you is scary. And I recorded like twelve minutes 0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:57.560 of the podcast and then he says, oh, hold on, Brody. 0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:58.760 I go, well, you have a phone call. He goes, 0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:03.360 hold on, damn it. What he says, your microphone wasn't recording, 0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:06.760 so it's all just his audio. So what I'd like, scared? 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:08.280 Did you erase the audio or did you keep it? 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.000 It's gone? I was gonna say we should post the 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:12.959 audioviere you talking to me not on the mic? No, 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:17.519 that's shit, that's garbage.

And 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.679 we gave him a great price for it, we did so. 0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.639 Uh yeah, so for the most part, Yeah, if we're 0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:07.280 gonna be honest about about this whole thing really quickly, Um, 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:11.960 I forgot Brodie's mic was not on the on the recording, 0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.440 so it was just me and now on my headphones, 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:16.920 I'm talking to Brodie. We're having a conversation. Yea. If 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.760 we would have had some brilliant lines, if I would 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.200 have played it back for everyone, it would just be 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.000 me talking one side, and you would have had to 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:24.760 fill in the blank on what Brodie was trying to 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.040 say back. In fact, you know, we might have been fun. 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.480 We might have gained more listeners if I aired that 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.560 that was a joke. Berdie. I think this license will 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:36.320 let you know that that's not the case. That was 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:38.880 your cute to laugh. We all might laugh, which I 0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:41.320 was waiting for the funny party room. So yeah, so 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:44.120 we apologize that we didn't talk to you guys about 0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:47.680 about not being on last week. But I'm on vacation, 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.760 uh in a few weeks, so we'll figure out what 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:52.360 we're doing and then there's no more vacations for a 0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:54.520 while right here, and I don't go on vacation at 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:57.800 the same time anymore. So yeah, so it's uh, it's difficult. Well, 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:00.720 we'll sync up, we'll figure away, we'll make get through this. Yeah, 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:02.360 I yelled at my wife and not planning out our 0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:06.280 family vacation at the same time that Scary went to Cabo. Yeah, Cabo, 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:09.560 speaking of what a great time. I gotta say shout 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:14.080 out to me Cabo Resort. Uh.

It 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:35.560 was just relaxing, but it had just enough adult scary 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:38.960 party time but not too crazy turned up. And then 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:42.520 they had their Taboo Day Club, which it was called 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:44.800 Taboo Day Club and it's a you know, basically they 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:47.839 have like dancers and you know, they have a saxophonist 0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:50.920 that comes in, a flutist, a violinist I mean that 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:54.600 that plays to the music. Um. And it looked incredible, 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.120 it really did. I was I was thinking I would 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.320 plan a trip there.

Um, 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:20.719 there's a lot of adult resorts there and it's a 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:23.000 good party scene. You can leave the resort and go 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:25.000 to my city. But I'm glad you had a good time. 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:26.960 You enjoyed it, it was great. Did we talk about 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:31.520 how all your friends have last names with S? No? 0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:35.440 Is that the catternet's developing? No? No, no, no. So 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:38.320 I realized this, and I don't know how I didn't 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:40.520 realize it earlier in my life, but I realized that 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:42.680 at your birthday party. And I thought I talked about 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:47.440 this and I didn't. I'm sorry. Most of your friends, Uh, 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:49.760 can I say the last names I get? Well? Like 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.720 Ronnie Scalzo. You know Ronnie Scalzo your whole life. He 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:55.800 went to school with you. Oh yeah, right, Jason Smoller, 0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.920 that's with an S, right, yes, all right? How many 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.640 other of your good friends have letters in the alphabet 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:06.200 near your last last name? Scar Skii, Scalzo Smoller, Well, 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:10.080 Voe Paicelli is the the maiden name for Denise who's 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.160 married to Jason, right right right? They met, Yeah, we 0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:16.840 all met stuv that's end of the alphabet. Yes, correct. 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.600 So my friends that I hang out with, that my 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.800 my junior high school and high school gang that we 0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:25.640 have reunions, we hang out. Their letters and their last 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:30.840 names are B D and E Big Dick Energy, Big 0:07:30.840 --> 0:07:33.560 Dick Energy. Yeah, and my last name, of course is Brodie. 0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:38.600 Well why is that because in our homeroom classes and alphabetically, 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:41.800 we were always sat alphabetically and we were sorted into 0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:45.600 homeroom classes by the alphabet. So our lives and our 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:51.200 lifelong friends are determined by our last names. Facts. Because 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:53.720 it is so bizarre. And you had that, I don't 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:57.040 have any friends named Zimmerman, like like like later in 0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.960 the alphabet. Right, Well, sorry, said Zimmerman. You're all my 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.360 friend but like from more acquaintance. Now I'm kidding. He's 0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:05.240 a good guy, right, but you know, I will say, 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.720 and you had this revelation when we were hanging out 0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:11.920 for my birthday because and it is podcast. So when 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:14.960 when you get to middle school, in high school, usually 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:18.240 the formative years where you meet your friends that you 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:23.520 sybetically your friends, they're alphabetical because normally everyone meets in 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:26.200 the home room. That's just the place where you hang 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.320 your coat and you get checked in for you know, 0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:31.080 all the all the clerical shit, and then you all 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:35.120 branch off into other classes. But you spend the most 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:37.640 time with you know, if you think about it that 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.440 you know the classes, do you think about it? The class? Well, 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.360 the classes changed. I'm talking to the slices now. Classes 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:46.400 change from semester to semester, but you're usually the home room. 0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:50.400 People all travel the same, right, and it's like four 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:52.400 people in your homeroom class in math, you go over 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.720 to them, right, and and it's it's literally your four 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:57.600 years or three or four years of your life and 0:08:57.679 --> 0:08:59.319 the beginning and the end of your day, even though 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:02.880 it's like ten fifteen minutes. So so we all grouped 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:06.480 together and clumped together, and we all bonded all because 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.200 and and and home room was always sorted by alphab 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:12.400 so we're still clumped alphabetically, right, many many years after 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:14.840 I graduate. Yea, here I am hanging out with a 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.559 bunch of people whose last names are I don't think 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:19.640 we weren't friends at any of the seas. So in 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:21.760 case you're like, why did I say B, D, and E, Well, 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:24.320 because we don't have any friends with the name. I 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:27.440 had friends in school. I was friends with Cabal you 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:30.120 know what, No, I'm we have a C in the group, 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.760 but she moved to Arizona. We did have a C, yeah, 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.760 Laura C. So A through F was home room one, 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:37.840 and then G through the you know whatever, the middle 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.080 of the alphabet. So they that's how they clumped it 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.520 to thirty students, thirty thirty thirty thirty. How do you 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:44.440 get one hundred and twenty students. You divide it by 0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:46.480 four and then you get four home room classes. So 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:49.800 we were home room number four and we were the 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:51.240 last at the end of the We were the end 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:54.680 of the alphabet home room and we traveled together for years. 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:58.680 So these are to this to this day, thirty fifth, 0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:02.720 forty years later. These are my core friends, right all 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:05.559 end in S, T and Oh. I always sat towards 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:08.920 the front of the classroom and I graduated like twenty 0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:11.319 five minutes later than the people whose names like with 0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:13.880 S's and z's. Yeah, oh, I also Ticillo in there 0:10:13.880 --> 0:10:17.520 because a Cicillo. So it's Scalzo scary smaller to Cillo Vopicelli, 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.000 Like these were my friends growing up. That is an 0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:24.160 Italian group of people, my friends. It really is scary 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:28.280 Scalzo smaller. And what was the Voicelli Toicillo and Vopicelli 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:30.800 to Cillo and Vopicelli, what kind of pasta do you 0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:35.559 guys have? Oh, we've got Cappellini, Cicello Voppellini. You sound 0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:40.240 like Posta's yeah something, oh, something that irked me, that 0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:41.920 would irk you in the same way. On the way 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:43.800 back from cob You know, don't speak for me. Most 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:45.440 things don't irk me. I don't know who you're talking to. 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.719 On the plane ride back. I'm upset already. We've all 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:52.880 we've all heard this before. As you're loading into the plane, 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:56.280 halfway through, that announcement comes on by the flight attendant. 0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:59.520 And what do they say? They say, ladies and gentlemen, 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:02.720 we have a very full flight this afternoon, so please 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.040 put your luggage up top and anything you could put 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:08.560 in the seat in front of you, please do that. 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:10.520 Wait a minute, Wait a minute, I you know what, 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:13.040 You're right, they say that, and I just realize what 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.199 you're upset about. Do you know what I'm gonna set about? 0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.079 Because I said, and I'm thinking about it and I 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.240 wrote it down on my phone, I'm like, fucking Brody. 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:21.280 Brody would be having a shit fit right now. And 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:24.160 this is going on the podcast. They said, once again, 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.400 I'll say, we have a very full flight this afternoon, 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:28.640 So how can you be very full? It's either full 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:31.319 or it's not full. That is correct. What it's like 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:34.120 when people say, how pregnant. Are you pregnant? Oh, you 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:37.240 look very pregnant. Either you are or you aren't. It's not. 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:40.199 Either it's full or it's not. There is no very full. 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:42.960 So okay, so he's the only thing I could think of, 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:45.920 the only thing I could think of. Sometimes, like I 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:47.640 know what they do with baseball games. They'll say, oh, 0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:49.840 we've got to sell out crowd here, and you look 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.240 on television and is like eighty percent of the fans there. 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:54.360 You're like, that's not sold out. But then you have 0:11:54.400 --> 0:11:57.480 to realize this. Tickets on StubHub this season, ticket holders 0:11:57.480 --> 0:11:59.360 didn't show up. That's tickets were all sold, but not 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:02.600 nobody showed up. That's correct. So maybe with very full 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:06.000 flight they mean everybody showed up their stand by people waiting, 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:09.959 And maybe they mean very full meaning everyone's got to 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:12.160 carry on. Maybe that's what they mean. Listen, you know me, 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:14.319 I give everyone a pass and I don't nitpick shit. 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:17.280 But no, maybe very full. Maybe very full means everyone 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:19.559 has it like two bags, Like that's what they mean, 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:23.599 very very full. By the luggage, No, well they know 0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:26.080 how many bags are coming on. I don't know. Maybe 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:31.120 very full. It just sounds weird and now slices. When 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.640 you fly, you're gonna notice it too, because they do 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.200 it on all the airlines. It has to favor. Ask 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:39.040 them what they mean by that. Yeah, yeah, Actually go 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:42.120 a step further, go up front and grab the radio 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:44.720 out of their hands. No, don't do that. You'll get 0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:47.480 arrested and jumped. I'm kidding, or jumped and arrested. I'm 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:52.160 with you. Just say to the steward, Stuart's a steward, 0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:54.760 a male steward. They're back in the day. They're not 0:12:54.880 --> 0:13:00.000 slight attendant. Yes, come on attendant. Et dude, the female 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.360 what year is this? We are flight attendants. They are 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.360 not stewards. We are You're not with flight A flight 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:08.200 attendants anyway? Yes, yeah, let's ask the steward as the 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:12.520 flight attendant. Whatever you see. Yeah, ye, ask that person 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.560 what does it mean by very full flight? And then 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:16.880 to look at your go don't be an ass I'll 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:24.480 sit down, sir, exactly. The well, Um, I'm just coming 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:26.840 down from that high. I'm relaxed. I don't know about you. 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:31.560 You have anxiety, are you? Here's the space I try 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:34.560 to relax. I try to so a Frienstan. I'll give 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:37.120 an example of me trying to relax. I went to 0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:40.240 the movies to see Aunt Man in the Wasp Quantum Mania, which, 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.320 by the way, not a lot of people have noticed this, 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:46.120 but in the word quantum mania, a n T is 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:48.280 in quantum and m an is in the mania. Ant 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.600 Man is part of the word quantum Manias. Bull shout 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.640 out there. I'm a big Marvel fan, so I go 0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:55.880 to see all the movies on opening night, usually the 0:13:55.920 --> 0:13:58.560 Thursday or the Friday of the latest, to see the movies. 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:04.200 And uh so the I was there and my family 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:06.160 was there, but we went in two different cars. I 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:07.959 had errands to run and I wasn't gonna be home 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:09.760 in time, so I said, you know what, I'll meet 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.720 you guys at the theater. So my wife and daughters 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:16.040 are in one car and I'm in the other. And 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:17.640 by the way, Aunt Man in the Wasp. If you're 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.040 a massive Marvel fan, it was fine that that's gonna 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:25.640 be the sequel to this podcast Aunt Man in the Wasp. Huh, 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:28.680 But that's gonna be the sequel. That's gonna be the 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.040 next podcast that we do after Broo Boys are Over 0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:35.120 the Wasp. Well, I'm I'm aunt man, because man, man, 0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.720 my name's Anthony. Yeah, but you're closer to being a 0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:40.560 white Anglo Saxon Protestant than I am. Okay, there's that. 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:44.080 So that's what WASP means. If you know the derogatory sense, 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:49.640 I guess you are aunt technically. Yeah, okay, anyway, so 0:14:49.840 --> 0:14:51.600 if you're not a Marvel fan, it was all right. 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:54.240 By the way, it had the biggest drop off percentage 0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:56.720 wise in the history of Marvel movies, or the second 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:59.560 the thing is the biggest from first weekend to second weekend. Yeah, 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:01.360 I don't hear a buzz about it. Gotta be honest. 0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:05.320 Oh that's funny, a buzz am in the wasps. Okay, anyway, 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.160 that's not the point. So we went to a Cinemark 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:11.640 movie theater, which I happened to think are nicer than AMC, 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:14.600 even though there's more. AMC's Cinemark a newer and don't 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:16.240 have holes in the seats. And by the way, did 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.160 the other one go out of business? Regal out? No, 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:21.320 Regal shut down a third of their stores nationally. They're 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.200 still around, okay, but other companies are trying to buy 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:27.360 them now. Anyway, So when I go to the movies. 0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:30.200 Normally my kids get a giant popcorn. They get whatever. 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:32.560 And I love a good movie hea to popcorn. In 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:34.760 other words, a bad movie hea to popcorn. But I've 0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:36.960 been trying to eat healthy lately. In fact, I've lost 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:39.640 a bunch of weight in the past three weeks. I'm 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:42.440 down a little bit. Good gratulations, Brodie. Thanks. Yeah, Well, 0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:44.320 I had lost all the weight and then I gained 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:50.440 back fifteen pounds over the last year and a half. 0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:53.360 I had lost like thirty something. I game back fifteen. 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:57.200 I'm now down ten of it, so I'm almost back 0:15:57.200 --> 0:16:01.680 to my weight loss weight. Okay, So anyway, the point is, 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:04.480 so I went to the movie theater with a little 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.240 plastic Target bag. Back when New Jersey used to give 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:11.080 Target plastic bags, you don't have those anymore. So I 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:14.160 had two little bags of smart pop popcorn and a 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:18.520 water bottle in my bag. Now, back a decade ago, 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:20.560 you used to not be able to bring food into 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.360 the movie theater, so you'd smuggle it in your coat pocket. 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:24.720 You'd put it in your sleeve of your coat and 0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:27.440 carry your coat in. You would smuggle it in. But 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:29.760 now nobody stops you at food. Right, you've gone to 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:32.120 the movies. No, I haven't, even not recently. Don't go 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:34.520 to the movies, so they don't not recently. I don't 0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:38.320 know bedbugs, but cares no bed bugs? Yes they are. 0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:40.800 You haven't seen one story about bedbugs in movie theaters? 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:43.480 Cut it out because they're they're hiding, they're suppressing those stories. 0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:47.920 That's right. Yeah, those those theater seats are disgusting. All 0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:51.040 the politicians getting money from the bed Bug Association. I'm 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:54.760 telling you those theaters are they are not that that 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:56.640 that's not where bed bugs come from. That that was 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:59.280 a thing ten years ago. Okay, all right, anyway, you 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:01.280 didn't go outcause you don't socialize the movie theaters. You 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:05.600 go to the club anyway, So nice theater, cinem Mark 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.200 and now a lot of the places have waiter service. 0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:11.280 They bring the food to your chair. And nobody's ever 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.320 questioned my soda bottle or my water bottle before, So 0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:16.879 I didn't bother hiding it in my coat pocket. Okay. 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:19.600 So I'm holding a target bag from the handles. You 0:17:19.640 --> 0:17:22.439 can't see what's in it. And my daughter texts me 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:28.600 and says, hey, I would like a red blue Slurpye combo. Right, 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:31.520 I want the red blue Slurpie combo, the classic one, 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:35.399 the red and the red and blue combo. Okay, okay, 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.280 So I say, okay, all right, no problem. So I 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:45.320 get online to order the slurpee, and between each set 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:48.800 of lines is like a rack of candy so that 0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:51.119 you can like pick up your box as a candy 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:53.200 as you're waiting to get all on into register. It's 0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:57.080 all right there, grabable. So I don't know, a girl 0:17:57.080 --> 0:18:00.600 in her late late teens early twenties on her tippy 0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:04.040 toes standing over the candy rack like a bull like 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.600 hedges like like hedges like a bush, and she just 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:10.320 excuse me, Um, is there food in that bag? Because 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:14.520 there's no outside food loud to movie theater. I said, oh, hi, 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.520 nice to meet you. Um, there's no signs here that 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:20.320 say that, and more importantly, there's no food in the bag. 0:18:21.480 --> 0:18:24.639 Like she didn't even walk over to me. She like, yeah, 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:26.360 I was standing. Oh. I don't even how she saw 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:27.720 the bag. She wanted to give you a shit for 0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:29.480 no reason. Must have seen the bag when I was 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:32.800 last online when around the rack is protection and then 0:18:32.880 --> 0:18:35.080 leaned over the top of it. Yea, and was like, 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:38.000 is there food in that bag? So she said, um, 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:41.800 are you sure there's no food in the bag? So 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:44.720 I said, oh, yeah, yeah, she didn't know she's fucking 0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:47.200 with I'm sure there's no food in the bag. I'm 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:52.320 online to buy food. Meanwhile, very I have fucking food 0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:55.400 in my bag. So fuck her, right of course, I'm 0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:58.399 not gonna tell her if she's not gonna trying to 0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:00.280 call her bluff. What if she came over you and 0:19:00.320 --> 0:19:02.320 did a spot check. I go, you can't look at 0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:04.200 my bag in or a search. Warrant the funk away 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:10.480 from me anyway. So I go up to the cashier 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:14.320 and I say, I would like a large slurpy red 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:18.520 and blue combo. And he pushes some buttons and he says, 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:23.080 aren't fifteen dollars? I said for a slurpee. He says, no, 0:19:23.200 --> 0:19:25.880 fifteen dollars for the combo large popcorn and a slurpee. 0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:29.280 I said, I think my daughter only wanted us a slurpee, 0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:33.560 and the combo part is the red and blue. He says, well, 0:19:33.800 --> 0:19:35.680 we just call it mixed. We don't call that a 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.600 combo combos with popcorn. So then I remembered my younger 0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:42.119 daughter always wants popcorn, so I said, oh, all right, 0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:44.719 they must want the popcorn. So I'm like, all right, 0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:46.960 well fine, give me the you know, give me the 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:50.720 combo whatever. And I was a little like thrown because 0:19:50.760 --> 0:19:52.840 of the woman staring at me and my bag. I 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.080 was like, they can show up. My pip took the 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:57.760 popcorn combo. Good deal, right? What a bog? And what 0:19:57.840 --> 0:20:00.159 a bog? I'm standing in the lobby for fifteen That's 0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:02.399 how long it took before my my family showed up. 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:05.280 And I have the popcorn there. So I'm trying not 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:07.760 to eat the popcorn because if I eat too much 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:10.639 of the popcorn, it'll be noticeable and my youngest daugh 0:20:10.680 --> 0:20:12.440 it will be like, hey, why did you eat my popcorn? 0:20:13.280 --> 0:20:15.040 So I had a couple of pieces and realized it 0:20:15.080 --> 0:20:16.680 was popcorn in my teeth. So I'm getting all the 0:20:16.720 --> 0:20:20.359 popcorn I don't like, so that I'm not guilty because 0:20:20.359 --> 0:20:24.439 I don't like. Hello, there's no butter left because all 0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:26.119 the butters around the top. I don't put butter on that. 0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:29.400 Don't put the grease. That's the best part of the popcorn. Okay, 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:31.359 but I know that, but my kids don't want the butter. 0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:34.480
