Speaker 1: is Strawberry Letter thinking if you subject chicken nugget cheaters,

10
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 1: Dear Stephen Shirley, my husband left me recently and now

11
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: he wants to come back home. Last month, I came

12
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: home and there was a woman in my home. She

13
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: was sitting on the floor in my din eating chicken nuggets,

14
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: and she greeted me and we exchange pleasant trees. I

15
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: asked her where my husband was, and she said he

16
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: went to get some condoms and he'd be right back.

17
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: I went outside and waited in my car for him

18
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: to come back because I was scared of this strange woman.

19
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: My husband came home fifteen minutes later, and when he

20
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: saw my car, he passed on by the house. He

21
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: called me and asked if I had been in the house.

22
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: I told him that I met his girlfriend Dianna, eating

23
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 1: chicken nuggets in the din. He said she is a

24
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: distant relative that is down on her luck, so he

25
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: fed her and told her he would go to the

26
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: store and pick up some things for her. I was

27
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: right behind him in my car at that point. I

28
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: told him to pull over, but he wouldn't. I was

29
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: so anxious I mistakenly rammed his car from behind, so

30
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: he had to stop. Bystanders ran over to check on me,

31
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: so I didn't get a chance to talk to my

32
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: husband because he drove off. I went back home and

33
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: the strange woman was gone, and she left my house unlocked.

34
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: I have not seen my husband since that day, but

35
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: he's been begging me to come home. I had the

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: locks changed because I didn't want Dianna popping back up

37
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: over there. I asked my mother in law if there

38
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: were a Deanna and her family, and she's a liar

39
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: and has always protected her son, so she said, I believe,

40
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: so am I supposed to believe that he went to

41
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: the store for Deanna when he has never gone to

42
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: Kroger or Target from me? Do I owe it to him?

43
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: To let him explain, or do I follow my first

44
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: mind and keep ignoring him. You owe him nothing, You

45
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: owe him nothing. Follow your first mind. Now, when you

46
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: had this accident, when you ran into the back of

47
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: this car, all the bystanders came over to check on you.

48
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: Your husband drove off. Follow your first mind, please, your

49
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: second mind, and your third mind. What a night you had.

50
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: This is really crazy. Huh his car and he should

51
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: have checked on her. Still, that is his wife. You

52
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: know what he was doing. Anyway, she was a little anxious.

53
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: She said, we're getting back in, getting back into the letter.

54
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: Though you were right to change the door locks. Do

55
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: not give him a key. Your husband just up and

56
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 1: left you, and now he wants to come home. This

57
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: was supposed to be a distant relative. Deanna in your

58
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: house lied to you about that. Then he ran away

59
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: when you wanted to pull over and talk. If he

60
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: had nothing to hide, he would have stopped and not

61
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: have passed you. Passed you by when he saw you outside.

62
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: He was going to the store to get condoms. That's

63
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: what Deanna said. For his night with Deanna. You know that.

64
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: But he called her told her to get out when

65
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: he saw you because you spoiled his plans when you

66
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: came home and found Deanna sitting in your floor eating

67
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: chicken nuggets. Don't let him back in the house. Be

68
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: done with him, because if he had the nerve to

69
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: bring a woman into your house like that, he's not

70
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: gonna stop what he's doing. Steve. This letter, damn Neil, unbelievable.

71
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: This letter, right Hill, it's so crazy. She said her

72
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: husband left her recently and now he want to come

73
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: back home. But the story is so damn crazy. Though,

74
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: last month I came home. Now this Houma, read the letter.

75
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: I'm an read the letter in the voice of an

76
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 1: ignorant person that's trying to tell you what happened. But

77
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: act but act like it makes sense. I hear gonna

00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: last month I came to the h No, I can't

79
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,440

Speaker 1: She was sitting on the floor in my den eating

85
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: chicken nuggets. This is odd, This is really odd. Then

86
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: you asked her where your husband was, and she said

87
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 1: he went to get some condom. He'll be right back.

Speaker 1: Fifteen minutes later, driving up to the house. See your

130
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: car in the driveway. He gone past the house. He

00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: gotta buy time. Now here you are? You jump in?

132
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: Then he called you and asked you, oh, babag you

133
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: you you you've been in the house yet. Yes, I've

134
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: been in the house. And I told him I met

135
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: his girlfriend Deanna eating chicken nuggets in the dead. He said,

136
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: as fast as he could. That's a distant relative that's

137
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: down on her luck. So I failed her and told

138
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: her she could I go to the store and pick

139
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: off some things. I was right behind him in my

140
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: car at that point. I told him to pull over,

141
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: but he wouldn't. I'd have been slanging condoms and rubbers

142
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: out that wonder like it was drugs. I'd have been

143
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: slanging condoms and rubbers out there, wonders. You'd have thought

144
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: I had weed on me, and I would have got

145
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: all the columns out that damn car. We gotta get

146
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: this out of here, because Tommy, right, I can't pull

147
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: over the columns in this I have some more chicken

148
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: nuggets in this car. I can have a hundred mustard sauce,

149
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: but I can't be in here with the damn commons.

150
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: I would have been biting that pack open, because you

151
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: can't throw the whole box out. You gotta throw them

152
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: out of individually. Sword. Yeah, I told him to pull over,

153
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: but hey wouldn't. I was so anxious. I mistakingly rammed

154
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: his car from behind, so he had to stop. This

155
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: is the only lie in the letter. Yeah, you know

156
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: good here where you rammed the back of that calm purpose,

157
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: you're trying to knock the hold back seat. You try

158
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: to push that back seat up through his throat, and

159
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: so that's a lot. I was so anxious I rammed

160
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: the back of his car by standings ran over the

161
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: check on me, so I didn't get a chance to

162
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: talk to my husband because he drove off. That was

163
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: his opening. Oh they check it on it. Let me

164
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: get up out of him. I went back home and

165
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: the strange woman was gone, and she left my house unlocked. Lady,

166
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 1: No she didn't. He went and got her out that house.

167
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: I didn't leave your house unlocked he won. He swung

168
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 1: around that corner, say myrtle, come out, now it coming.

169
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: They jumped in the car. I've not seen my husband

170
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: since that day, and he's been begging me to come home.

171
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: I had the locks change because I didn't want Dianna

172
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: popping back up over that. Y ain't been to pop

173
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 1: back up over there. Dianna, don't hand no key. Your

174
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: husband let hunting. Your husband, dumb your and bought us

175
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: some chicken nuggets so she could get fed. And he

176
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: was going to the stove to buy some condo. This

177
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: is the dumbest damn dude. Then I called his mama.

178
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: It's the second line to let him. I called his

179
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: mama and asked her if that was a Dianna in

180
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: their family, and she's a liar, always protects us, she said,

181
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: I believe. So let me tell you something. Old people

182
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: know who in the family. All these names in the

183
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: Bible somewhere, old ass people know who in this Bible.

184
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: Am I supposed to believe that he went to the

185
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: stove for Dianna. He did go to the stove for Dianna.

186
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: That's the true statement. Because Dianna forgot to bring the

187
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: condoms and she told you exactly why he went to

188
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: the stove, because once I eat these nuggets, I'm gonna

189
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: be good and something, and chicken nuggets turned me on.

190
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: So as soon as I get through he need nuggets,

191
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm thin that do your hood in here in this

192
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: flow as soon as he come back from Kroger with

193
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: the condes. And I don't see why you have a

194
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: problem with that game. Step move out the way because

195
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: I'm trying to watch the stories because I'm watching General

196
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: Hospital while I me need nuggets and you're standing in

197
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: the way of the TV. Whoever your name is. Now,

198
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: do I owe it to him to let him explain

199
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: or do I follow my first mind and keep ignoring him. Well, ma'am,

200
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: I don't know how long you can ignore him. You're

201
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: gonna have to address it, but you're gonna have to

202
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: deal with the white elephant that's in the room and

203
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: your elephant like chicken nuggets. So now, what do you

204
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: want to believe? Are you gonna let him tell you

205
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: that he really went to the stove for her when

206
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: she told you he going to the stove to bout

207
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: some condors and he'll be right back. So your lady,

208
00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: I don't know who you are, but you need to

209
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: get out of here because we're gonna be doing something

210
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: in this flow with this nugget and this I told
