Speaker 1: The Flex and Rooms Daily Podcast.
Speaker 2: A Beauty, the Truity Pie, Fortuity Pies. I love pet names.
Speaker 2: I feel like there needs to be a wider range
Speaker 2: of them, though. I was thinking about how you observed
Speaker 2: me using bro language. Yep, we're just subverting norms because
Speaker 2: I want to start calling you know, everybody girly. Everybody
Speaker 2: says boy boss, boy boss. I love boy boss. Just
Speaker 2: like that to me is inclusive language. I agree, you know,
Speaker 2: because there's something about code switching in anticipation that someone's
Speaker 2: not going to understand or not going to be able
Speaker 2: to resonate with you in all forms of your language,
Speaker 2: not just like, oh what I'm being like local nap,
Speaker 2: you get it all.
Speaker 3: If you don't understand, let me teach you today.
Speaker 4: Please.
Speaker 2: Anyway, we're talking about dimensional, the personality assessment app. Now
Speaker 2: I need to clarify dimensional itself didn't make personality assessment.
Speaker 2: It's algamating or amount you mating, sorry, a bunch of
Speaker 2: popular personality assessments, the DISK assessment, the Meyers Briggs assessment,
Speaker 2: and then potting it in you know, a simple easy
Speaker 2: place you can access it like coaster, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean? Didn't make up birth charge you just like
Speaker 2: put it in a place where you can access.
Speaker 3: Yours esthetically pleasing, esthetically pleasing.
Speaker 2: So we pose the question, if you don't resonate with
Speaker 2: your self assessment, what does that actually mean?
Speaker 3: Dot dot dot dot dot to be seen, to be seen.
Speaker 2: But we will unpack through me going some roast has
Speaker 2: occurred a mid twenty What do you call a.
Speaker 3: Mid twenties crisis?
Speaker 4: I call a life crisis.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe that's what you're going through.
Speaker 4: Who knows? Who cares some thing about personality tests? Want
Speaker 4: to live my life. I don't want to think about
Speaker 4: it too much.
Speaker 3: Oh actually thinks about it every day. It's flaking currently
Speaker 3: I'm texting you.
Speaker 4: I'm texting you freaking out clicks. I just like I
Speaker 4: just don't know what to do. Anyway, let's get to.
Speaker 1: It, fleck Ands.
Speaker 2: If you are tuning in right now to flex and through,
Speaker 2: I want you to take this moment to do some
Speaker 2: casual introspection. You might be driving, you know, might be
Speaker 2: having some quiet time, but no better time than the
Speaker 2: present to ask yourself if you are addicted to TikTok
Speaker 2: for me?
Speaker 3: Yes or no?
Speaker 4: No? Really definitely older all addicted. It's a shame I
Speaker 4: go in there about once a week, oh whoa for
Speaker 4: a marathon session, and I got one there being like
Speaker 4: I'm here to collect videos to post on Instagram.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a very casual relationship. It's a very situationship.
Speaker 2: So whether or not you have the ability to figure
Speaker 2: it out for yourself fee or not because I actually
Speaker 2: have a video to share for you, that's going to
Speaker 2: decide once and for all.
Speaker 3: If you can claim to be addicted to TikTok.
Speaker 4: Whoa, whoa.
Speaker 5: This is the parameters for if you're addicted to TikTok
Speaker 5: okay fine, a strong internal drive to use TikTok coupled
Speaker 5: with an impaired ability to control your use of TikTok. Sure,
Speaker 5: at least when I go on Instagram, I'm like, oh, wops,
Speaker 5: I forgot. This is boring and I close. And when
Speaker 5: I go on TikTok, I'm just like, two increase priority
Speaker 5: given to using TikTok than other activities. And I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 5: like when I was standing at a coffee shop alone
Speaker 5: in the past, i'd maybe next a friend put on
Speaker 5: a podcast.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I go on TikTok on like.
Speaker 5: Many little breeds in my day same number three persistence
Speaker 5: of TikTok despite thinking it as harm or adverse consequences
Speaker 5: on your life. Yes, like sometimes I throw my phone
Speaker 5: because I we do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, sorry, we're to TikTok.
Speaker 5: I don't know. I think now we have to figure
Speaker 5: That's why we're doing this episode, because I'm like, I
Speaker 5: think we all think, well, okay, you.
Speaker 2: Might be wondering, who are these people to create these parameters? Well,
Speaker 2: the ASAPS science one point one million followers. They're both scientists.
Speaker 2: They do stuff all day, you know, But I thought
Speaker 2: they were just two podcasts pros.
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no no. They're kind of like us, but accredited.
Speaker 3: That's credible. Say by that criteria, I'm definitely addicted.
Speaker 2: But I'm not uncomfortable with that at all, not even
Speaker 2: in the slightest.
Speaker 4: So what's your day to day TikTok yous look like
Speaker 4: every casual moment? Are you serious?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean, let's think about it. Let's say today. You know,
Speaker 2: I've the only time I've used TikTok is right now
Speaker 2: to show you that video. And so when I go home,
Speaker 2: I might use TikTok when I'm waiting for my dinner
Speaker 2: to come and then maybe.
Speaker 3: Before bed that'd be a casual light day.
Speaker 2: If I am like working at the computer, I have
Speaker 2: a bunch of screens open, I have my laptop which
Speaker 2: connected to an external screen or like another monitor. Then
Speaker 2: I probably have like a potty in the background, casually
Speaker 2: scrolled TikTok. It's all like, you know, the ecosystem's go
Speaker 2: and it's rolling.
Speaker 4: This is very interesting flex. I'm surprised that you can
Speaker 4: have creative ideas when you're plugging your brain in with
Speaker 4: so much stuff all the time. I was going through
Speaker 4: a period where I was super addicted to my phone
Speaker 4: about two weeks ago. I had motivation levels. I was
Speaker 4: coming out of a flu, so I just had no
Speaker 4: motivation to do anything. So therefore I just got on
Speaker 4: my phone for a cheap thrill. And I realized, oh
Speaker 4: my god, this is why I don't have any creative ideas.
Speaker 4: It's because whenever I have time to think, like I
Speaker 4: don't give my brain any time to sit and think. Instead,
Speaker 4: you know, before bed, I'm going on TikTok until I
Speaker 4: literally my eyes are going square and I fall asleep.
Speaker 4: Whereas I tried not going on it for a few
Speaker 4: days and I'm having all these creative breakthroughs at nighttime,
Speaker 4: waking up, put it in my phone, go back to sleep,
Speaker 4: wake up, put it in my phone, which I wouldn't
Speaker 4: have had if I was on TikTok the whole time.
Speaker 3: Gorgeous. I can't relate, but thank you for sharing.
Speaker 2: I love it. I guess it's also my page. Like
Speaker 2: my TikTok page is full of like philosophies, psychology, le
Speaker 2: la la la.
Speaker 3: I'm like, this is information I.
Speaker 4: Knew, yeah, whereas mine is like the humor that I
Speaker 4: find funny on TikTok isn't skits. It's like random random
Speaker 4: people like getting you know, falling over.
Speaker 3: Or getting hurt. What you're gonna say, Dama, you know
Speaker 3: you're sick.
Speaker 4: So that's like one in a million.
Speaker 1: Flex and frooms.
Speaker 2: Let us pose the question, if you do not believe
Speaker 2: in self assessed personality test, does that mean you are
Speaker 2: not self aware?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 4: Or no?
Speaker 3: Rooms, please go.
Speaker 4: I think the opposite. I think if you are interested
Speaker 4: and if you are reliant on personality tests, it means
Speaker 4: you're not self aware.
Speaker 3: It's not the question.
Speaker 4: What was the question?
Speaker 2: If you don't believe in self assessment? Like here's my thing.
Speaker 2: When people do a personality test and they say, and
Speaker 2: I don't believe what's coming up. It's like you put
Speaker 2: in these answers. If I had gone to you and said, hey,
Speaker 2: for me, I'm going to assess you. I'm going to
Speaker 2: ask you these questions and you're not going to answer them.
Speaker 2: I'm going to determine how you should answer based on
Speaker 2: how I see you. If I gave you those results
Speaker 2: and you said, oh, that's not right, like, okay, well
Speaker 2: maybe I'm not seeing you well. But if you're doing
Speaker 2: the test and you're in put in your answers and
Speaker 2: you don't resonate with them, then you're not doing it properly.
Speaker 3: Therefore, to you, you shouldn't believe in.
Speaker 4: Well that they're all leading questions. They all have an
Speaker 4: agenda exactly.
Speaker 2: However, if you purposely don't answer them correctly, then you
Speaker 2: won't get the right answer. Example, we talked about it
Speaker 2: just earlier. Frumy and I are sitting in the cater
Speaker 2: office and I want to free me to do this
Speaker 2: dimensional personality test. It's an app, by the way, not
Speaker 2: on Android, sorry sorry, just on iOS. And I find
Speaker 2: that it's not it can be not a very enjoyable
Speaker 2: process if it's not your thing. So I thought I
Speaker 2: would read out the questions to through me and then
Speaker 2: she would tell me what her answer is.
Speaker 3: A ID in put it in the app.
Speaker 2: You know, teamwork, teams and so the thing about when
Speaker 2: you are in the room with someone self assessing is
Speaker 2: you can't challenge their self assessment. That's not sexy, That's
Speaker 2: not what a friend would do. However, there were multiple
Speaker 2: questions we're through me life, and I didn't say lie,
Speaker 2: she lid, Okay, what did I Example number one, there's
Speaker 2: a question that says I always put my things.
Speaker 3: Back in the place where they belong from me.
Speaker 2: Have the option to check strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree,
Speaker 2: strongly disagree.
Speaker 3: Fumi says strongly agree, No.
Speaker 4: I didn't.
Speaker 3: My right eye looks up at her, my left eye
Speaker 3: looks at the phone. So let's continue.
Speaker 2: The question says I'm overly concerned with not making a
Speaker 2: mess and keeping my space tidy.
Speaker 3: Fumy says strongly agree.
Speaker 2: Now, if you were an avid listener of the show,
Speaker 2: you would hear plenty of time US reference through me
Speaker 2: side table of doom. It has been cleaned by someone
Speaker 2: who is not through me. But at any even point,
Speaker 2: you'll find a hair brushed straight hairs, crumbs, the crumbs,
Speaker 2: crumbs food from three hours ago, et cetera.
Speaker 4: There's actually over on my desk outside, like a small
Speaker 4: dish of milk.
Speaker 3: Yeah, serealize what reason?
Speaker 4: Because I don't want to put it away. I'll put
Speaker 4: it away later.
Speaker 3: The test says.
Speaker 2: The test says, I'm often careful about where I put
Speaker 2: my things, and all of my things have a place.
Speaker 2: Smy says strongly agree. If we know anything about Fremy,
Speaker 2: at least once a week there'll be a text in
Speaker 2: the group chat.
Speaker 3: Has anybody seen my rings? Does anybody see my dress?
Speaker 2: Has anybody seen my things? So I'm here thinking, okay,
Speaker 2: at this point, I got to cut in.
Speaker 3: I gotta let her know that something's gonna ry. Frimy says, well, no,
Speaker 3: like I'm answering like, not what.
Speaker 2: I'm doing now, but like what I used to be
Speaker 2: like is I used to be really clean and I
Speaker 2: used to be really.
Speaker 3: Particular about where my things are. So that's what I'm
Speaker 3: answering for.
Speaker 4: Yeah, damn, but you don't understand the mental gymnastics of
Speaker 4: turning into a completely different person. I don't have a
Speaker 4: spiritual awakening. If you can't, like you could never understand
Speaker 4: what it's like.
Speaker 3: I can. You need to explain it.
Speaker 4: I've literally gone from this person to this person. I
Speaker 4: used to be the cleanest.
Speaker 3: Person, used to give us a window of time, oh
Speaker 3: a year and a half ago. Okay, So so pre
Speaker 3: flexing rooms.
Speaker 4: Preflexing frooms from birth till then clean freak, every single
Speaker 4: item of clothing, color coded, everything's folded.
Speaker 3: Do we at least have some images of this time?
Speaker 4: Because yeah, I can find them.
Speaker 2: Let's get some images and some proof in because for
Speaker 2: now we have about nine months of version two through me. Okay,
Speaker 2: and from what we've seen clean Free, it's just not
Speaker 2: touching the sides for us. But it's not touching the sides.
Speaker 2: But what I want to talk about more in particular,
Speaker 2: is why, when answering a personality test for you now,
Speaker 2: are you referencing a person that does not exist?
Speaker 3: We don't even know.
Speaker 2: For me, you said, I don't know what it's like
Speaker 2: to be a completely different person. Done a one eighty
Speaker 2: yes correct. Please explain that to us, because I do
Speaker 2: not know. I make small incremental changes and I usually
Speaker 2: like verbalize them and let people know I'm a reforming
Speaker 2: pickie eater. But like that's not one eighty, that's just
Speaker 2: a subtle or something.
Speaker 3: Well, this is like here is it's like BC a day.
Speaker 4: What's the different way you can do That's that works?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah before rights for me thinks she's a second
Speaker 3: coming of God.
Speaker 4: The manic complex is coming out, okay, prior to let's say,
Speaker 4: before cater neat free. Yeah, BC literally, and then AD
Speaker 4: is after it's all good, yeah.
Speaker 3: After dimensional.
Speaker 4: Before after that's good as super clean, cook every meal
Speaker 4: always ten minutes, early, makeup, fastidious clothes, clean, washing my
Speaker 4: bed sheets every.
Speaker 3: Week, like just optimal.
Speaker 4: Snatched in terms of you know what's it called habits habits?
Speaker 4: The habits were snatched. Then I have a mental breakdown. Yeah,
Speaker 4: was it really a MENTI bait? I'm not sure. I
Speaker 4: actually think I just grew out of it naturally.
Speaker 3: Call it what you want.
Speaker 4: But whatever it was was a massive life change, because
Speaker 4: imagine your whole life you're a pickieter. I'm sure it
Speaker 4: didn't just come over me. It's funny because I'm in
Speaker 4: the total opposite period now, so it feels like it
Speaker 4: just came over me. In reality, it was a one
Speaker 4: year shift. Start by sleeping in a bit more, not
Speaker 4: going to the gym a bit more, going out with
Speaker 4: friends a bit more. It started November twenty twenty, so
Speaker 4: it's almost.
Speaker 3: Been COVID lockdown.
Speaker 4: Yeah, when we were coming out of lockdown, got into
Speaker 4: my party earlier twenty five years old, started like reliving
Speaker 4: some going out till three am. It's crazy. So what
Speaker 4: I'm trying to say is part of me is still
Speaker 4: stuck as the old person, and in terms of my
Speaker 4: thought processes in that you kind of sometimes you mourn
Speaker 4: that period because it's very I did a lot of
Speaker 4: things that were considered holier than now, whereas now I
Speaker 4: behave like a normal person who doesn't have uh not
Speaker 4: idiosyncrasies neuroses. I'm far less neurotic.
Speaker 3: This is far less.
Speaker 4: I'm foulstic about my personal space and like about getting
Speaker 4: places on time. I just live a more relaxed lifestyle.
Speaker 4: I'm a better person to be around.
Speaker 2: So will you do dimensional again? Well as current froom?
Speaker 4: All right, let me quickly tell you what I've got
Speaker 4: on the dimensional. I've done all the bits, but it's
Speaker 4: it's like it's not for me.
Speaker 2: It's like me doing the dimensional test, and the test
Speaker 2: is like I don't say what I think, and I'm
Speaker 2: like strongly agree, strongly agree, And the test is like
Speaker 2: I'm really concerned about out oh you know the question
Speaker 2: that was like I give up my comforts for others.
Speaker 2: I might strongly agree. I would be twitching looking at me,
Speaker 2: like what are you talking about?
Speaker 4: You see see.
Speaker 3: It's like on the other end of the spectrum.
Speaker 2: So how can we look at these results and be like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they resonate.
Speaker 4: Well when you went away, I did some of the
Speaker 4: other ones, and that makes sense here all right, here's
Speaker 4: this your most annoying habits number one? And these are
Speaker 4: so specific. I love the language and dimensional whoever's like
Speaker 4: done the reactional language is very it's not very like
Speaker 4: yass queen, but it's not very clinical. It's like quite
Speaker 4: a nice mix. Your most annoying habits Number one, crying
Speaker 4: of the movies. Done it once when I watch everything
Speaker 4: everywhere all at once.
Speaker 3: I really got you, didn't it?
Speaker 2: That fucked me in the ass? Yeah, wow, okay, because
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it in a very like this is abstract
Speaker 2: and funny.
Speaker 4: Ha ha ha ha.
Speaker 2: And then I saw TikTok and everyone's posting their reactions
Speaker 2: to stepping out of the cinema, ballingalling.
Speaker 3: I said, what did I miss?
Speaker 4: It was a bit with the mother and the daughter,
Speaker 4: and like the daughter's running away, the mother's trying to
Speaker 4: find No.
Speaker 3: I don't have a strain of relationship with my mum,
Speaker 3: So maybe that's why.
Speaker 4: Why it's just poignant poignant? Two being a smart ass,
Speaker 4: three winking to yourself, four sneaking to the front of
Speaker 4: the line, and five being a workaholic. And I'll just
Speaker 4: give you one more.
Speaker 3: Give us a couple more, all right?
Speaker 4: You? Oh, you hate talking about number one, sob stories,
Speaker 4: there's a bit of that. There's a few substories coming around.
Speaker 4: You hate talking about your art rival? Do I have
Speaker 4: an art rival?
Speaker 2: I don't think you have a mutual one, but I
Speaker 2: think there are people that you, yeah.
Speaker 4: That I hate number three, the deeper meaning behind a
Speaker 4: work of art. That's see. Some of these are just
Speaker 4: not true, which, yeah, I guess I mustn't have I
Speaker 4: mustn't have done this correctly.
Speaker 3: Well it's not correctly. You were just dishonest, babe.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, I got a final one. This is
Speaker 4: why I believe dimensional for a second, you want a
Speaker 4: partner who number one will give you a massage? Yeah,
Speaker 4: number two Chelsea, you're hot. Cinema just the two things.
Speaker 3: And rotation.
Speaker 4: So with your dimensional does it ring true?
Speaker 3: Yeah for the most part. But I feel like.
Speaker 2: I didn't like the bits where they're like they're interpreting
Speaker 2: it like that way, because I if when we're seeking
Speaker 2: at information, I want more information, not the like the
Speaker 2: real suctin suscinct version.
Speaker 3: I want give me like the thing and I'll go
Speaker 3: google it.
Speaker 4: Something you want more theoretic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to understand, like where you're getting this
Speaker 2: information from. What did I say that gave you this inclination, etcetera, etcetera.
Speaker 2: But I really like self assessment for this reason because
Speaker 2: I think that we spend a lot of time thinking
Speaker 2: about ourselves through the perspective of others.
Speaker 3: Instead of in relation to others.
Speaker 2: So when we're answering these questions, is like this invisible spectator,
Speaker 2: who's like, answer it the right way, answer it properly,
Speaker 2: answer it in the way that will present you as
Speaker 2: like this kind of person, as opposed to being like no,
Speaker 2: let's just lay it out for a second. There, you know,
Speaker 2: I remember somebody sent us a DM and they're like, Okay,
Speaker 2: I love how real you and through me are. And
Speaker 2: I was like, in which way I want to know
Speaker 2: what you're considering.
Speaker 3: To be real.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, when you talk about money, and I
Speaker 2: was like, that's the thing you think is real of
Speaker 2: all the things we talk about, Like yeah, just seeing
Speaker 2: like two young girls talk about wanting to get their
Speaker 2: bag up, I was like, nice, cool, that should be
Speaker 2: what dimensional is.
Speaker 3: Exposing yourself to the world anyway, please do it again
Speaker 3: when you're ready, I'll do.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'll try again. To be honest. So my
Speaker 4: finest thing is sake. We got to wrap it up, Brooks.
Speaker 4: She's been wrapping up.
Speaker 2: Yah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna do this in twenty five words or less.
Speaker 4: I am currently over enthusing my relaxation. The answers you
Speaker 4: think are fake is still me. I'm just seeing an
Speaker 4: overextended period. Yeah, the ones are get together. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: we get it.
Speaker 2: This is flex and fruit on Cada wake up Flexes
Speaker 2: being controversial on the internet again. And to be honest
Speaker 2: for a second now that I lost it because there
Speaker 2: was a point in time where every day.
Speaker 3: I was just lighting fires for fun.
Speaker 4: It's a thankless time just.
Speaker 2: Being out of pocket to see what sticks. But it
Speaker 2: got a bit tiring because being in like an incidental
Speaker 2: villain boring. If I'm going to hurt feelings, I wanted
Speaker 2: to really count in this instance.
Speaker 3: Though I made.
Speaker 2: A flippant flyaway comment that I Slex of Sydney brush
Speaker 2: my teeth in the shower. It had not occurred to
Speaker 2: me that people don't do that, you know, to be fair,
Speaker 2: I know Americans in movies brush their teeth at the sink,
Speaker 2: but honestly, I thought that was just acting. I thought
Speaker 2: the logistics were too hard to put the.
Speaker 3: Tooth brush in the shower.
Speaker 2: Come to find out, of like eight thousand people who
Speaker 2: responded in this poll, forty percent of people brush their
Speaker 2: teeth at.
Speaker 4: The sink or only at the sink. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I can't think of anything more impractical, so can I.
Speaker 2: Let's start with the basics, right, The reason why you
Speaker 2: brush your teeth in the shower, Number one is for
Speaker 2: efficiency and comfort. You're already wet, you can get a
Speaker 2: good scrub, teeth, tongue, everything it's flowing off you. You
Speaker 2: can easily repump, and your whole body is participating.
Speaker 3: It's enjoyment.
Speaker 2: Brushing my teeth at the sink. On the odd occasion
Speaker 2: where I've done it, it's been messy. Why have we
Speaker 2: got toothpaste, SuDS and residue down my forearm to my elbow?
Speaker 3: Disgusting.
Speaker 2: I can't brush my teeth in peace because you know,
Speaker 2: when you I don't know if you're a tongue.
Speaker 3: Brusher or a scraper.
Speaker 2: Which one brusher? Okay, I'm a scraper and I it's
Speaker 2: scraping is much better. Let me let me explain it
Speaker 2: to you. Imagine a U shaped metal apparatus.
Speaker 4: Oh, I've got one. I don't use it, though.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe get into that. No, maybe get into that.
Speaker 4: Because you got the crumbly, you got the like mountainous
Speaker 4: bit at the very back of your tongue, and then
Speaker 4: the scrape so of that it feels like I'm hurting it.
Speaker 3: I don't have that, okay.
Speaker 2: Anyway, So the thing about scraping your tongue at the
Speaker 2: sink is when you get that gunk, you have to
Speaker 2: see it.
Speaker 1: Ah.
Speaker 3: I don't want to see what's in my mouth.
Speaker 2: I don't want to see what comes out after I
Speaker 2: finish scrubbing. I want to brush, brush, brush and just
Speaker 2: have the SuDS mix in with the water and be
Speaker 2: down my drain before I know what's happened.
Speaker 3: You know what's also gross?
Speaker 2: I can tell when I'm walking into someone's bathroom and
Speaker 2: they brush at the sink.
Speaker 3: Why because it's filthy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's filthy.
Speaker 3: It's disgusting.
Speaker 2: You got stuff all over your mirrors, stuff all over
Speaker 2: the basin. Your toothpaste is grubby like, it's not sexy.
Speaker 4: Okay, ridle me this.
Speaker 3: I'm ready.
Speaker 4: You brush your teeth in the shower? Great? Do you
Speaker 4: leave the brush and the toothpaste in the shower.
Speaker 2: I fully have the whole caddy for it. You know,
Speaker 2: you got the little resin cup. I've got my two
Speaker 2: different toothpastes. I've got my whitening one and my one
Speaker 2: just like you know, breath freshening. Then I've got my
Speaker 2: tongue scraper. Then I've got my mouth wash.
Speaker 4: It's all there in the shower, in the shower. See,
Speaker 4: I'm a shower brusher through and through. I love the
Speaker 4: comfort of the warm shower. I usually do the rushing
Speaker 4: while the purple shampoos in my hair because that needs
Speaker 4: a few minutes to set.
Speaker 3: Amazing. How are daily?
Speaker 4: Nah, every every week.
Speaker 3: So you brush your teeth how often?
Speaker 4: No, you thought we didn't clock that, You thought we
Speaker 4: didn't walk anyway, Say I brush my teeth twice a day.
Speaker 3: Okay, it's some nice three liar.
Speaker 4: I do do this. No, But something that I will
Speaker 4: die on the hill of is I don't leave my
Speaker 4: toothbrush on the tooth face in the shower because I
Speaker 4: live in a sharehouse and I don't like the idea
Speaker 4: of someone doing a hot piss and a piss seem
Speaker 4: going infecting my toothbrush. This is how I do it,
Speaker 4: toothbrush in a draw used only by me, with all
Speaker 4: my other.
Speaker 3: Things in the drawer. It's wet. You don't heard about mildew.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well it's gonna be more mildew in the shower.
Speaker 1: Well why looks set?
Speaker 3: Okay? Okay, sharing toothbrushes, yes or no?
Speaker 4: Stop it? You know what I will do? You know
Speaker 4: what I will do? Okay, to be fair, I don't
Speaker 4: have that many sleepovers in my house, but when I do,
Speaker 4: obviously you got the spare tooth when you get near it.
Speaker 3: Oh, you have one wady friend to go.
Speaker 4: You.
Speaker 2: I was like, you have the rotating toothbrushing for guests
Speaker 2: I do, Are you joking.
Speaker 4: Brotherhood of the Traveling Brush? No, you want to brush
Speaker 4: your teeth, I'm not gonna let you use mine. I've
Speaker 4: got the spare one for guests.
Speaker 3: So we were joking.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got two tooth brushes, my one, and then
Speaker 4: on the high shelf it's the one for guests. So
Speaker 4: I've a random sleepover guest. I say, yeah, there's a
Speaker 4: spare truthbrush.
Speaker 3: You're so freaky.
Speaker 4: No one else do that.
Speaker 1: And scene This is flex and frooms.
Speaker 4: We posted a video a few weeks ago about a
Speaker 4: nipple piercing story. So I went to a a few
Speaker 4: weeks ago my friend's birth Fay met a girl that
Speaker 4: I know, and she was telling me a story about
Speaker 4: nipple piercings. How did we get onto this topic, I
Speaker 4: can't tell you, I don't matter. But she told me
Speaker 4: a story about how a woman allegedly had a nipple piercing,
Speaker 4: took it out for maybe a routine clean little black
Speaker 4: hair was poking out. I can't, I can barely. Even
Speaker 4: my mouth is salibating telling the story. It's so gross,
Speaker 4: goes to pluck the boob hair out. Turns out it's
Speaker 4: a nerve poking out of her boob. She falls to
Speaker 4: the ground, shits, vomits, and experiences some of the worst
Speaker 4: pain of her whole life. Posted this on TikTok and
Speaker 4: the socials I reckon we got about a million views
Speaker 4: all up, blew up across all platform.
Speaker 2: Naturally, we traumatize a fair few people. And when I
Speaker 2: say we, I mean through me. I was but a bystander.
Speaker 2: You reshare reshared.
Speaker 4: So we share this song and in the chat we
Speaker 4: really no one could work out is this truth? This
Speaker 4: is not true. Some people are saying I've heard the
Speaker 4: story again, it's an old wives tale.
Speaker 2: I think too many people had said they had heard
Speaker 2: a similar story, So I'm thinking, do has everybody met
Speaker 2: this one girl? But then I had someone say, oh,
Speaker 2: I'm from Ireland and I've definitely heard this story as well.
Speaker 2: So it's making the rounds internationally, intercontinentally, and the only
Speaker 2: thing we can do is find the girl.
Speaker 4: Well, this is the thing. Though, it got ramped up
Speaker 4: a notch when I saw doctor Anthony Yune commented, if
Speaker 4: you're a big on TikTok, your see it's this guy
Speaker 4: that talks about plastic surgery, Like, who's got it in
Speaker 4: Hollywood talks about what he would do for certain people
Speaker 4: and does general myth busting. Yes, and he commented someone
Speaker 4: said fact or cap and tagged him and he said cap.
Speaker 4: So technically I would love to have him on the show.
Speaker 4: I've gone and done another little check online. I went
Speaker 4: to bodycandy dot com dodate you. It's a website about piercing.
Speaker 4: Dear Ali, your modifiated lifestyle advice. It's a chick with
Speaker 4: heaps of tattoos and heaps of piercings. Someone says, I
Speaker 4: heard this story. Literally, it's exactly what we've heard, but
Speaker 4: it's tendon and she says, this is a myth. I've
Speaker 4: done the research. It was a viral story. Other people
Speaker 4: say it was a tendon, a nerve, a milk duck,
Speaker 4: a scar tissue that came out as the thread stinking
Speaker 4: out of the pierce nipple. But it's unlikely that it
Speaker 4: was a nerve due to the anatomical structure of your nipple.
Speaker 4: More than likely a string that appears would just be
Speaker 4: a tiny strip of scar tissue left over from the
Speaker 4: complications of breastfeeding. So whatever it is, however you cut it,
Speaker 4: it's disgusting.
Speaker 2: I would like to mythbust this though, because think of
Speaker 2: all the people who are getting their fifteen minutes of
Speaker 2: fame from a fake cloud story. I just want to
Speaker 2: get it so when everybody retells the story, they circle
Speaker 2: back to us.
Speaker 3: No flex and rims debunk.
Speaker 4: To that one hundred percent. I'm there for that.
Speaker 2: So get your contact out, find the girl you spoke
Speaker 2: to at the party, get her to put us in
Speaker 2: touch with the actual girl, and let's get to the
Speaker 2: bottom of it. Bring us this random girl it happened
Speaker 2: to because everybody knows her. But why has she not
Speaker 2: revealed herself. I could talk about someone so casually shared,
Speaker 2: no identifying factors, and they will reveal themselves to me.
Speaker 3: Oh that's me, you're talking about me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this girl, we've gone viral on how many different platforms,
Speaker 2: and she's not come out to claim her story.
Speaker 4: I know well, my friend said to me, because we
Speaker 4: got onto the Daily Mail Natural about this and they
Speaker 4: made it look as though you're the one who had
Speaker 4: the difference.
Speaker 3: And it was not my nipple. My nipples are not piersed.
Speaker 4: But the pick that you used was iconic, a great picture.
Speaker 4: Thank you, And I said to my friend, thanks for
Speaker 4: sending us this is our most successful segment and she gad,
Speaker 4: she goes, haha, oh my good god. I really want
Speaker 4: to find the nipple owner to reveal herself exactly. So
Speaker 4: we're working on We're on the case.
Speaker 3: Need a chain of command.
Speaker 1: You're listening to flex and Frooms on Kita Flexy Mummy.
Speaker 4: Yes, sweetheart, I was at a party on Saturday night.
Speaker 3: You've been out these days.
Speaker 4: I've been going to shows.
Speaker 2: I'm in my I'm just extremely outside springs what we're
Speaker 2: calling it.
Speaker 4: Extremely outside. Yeah, I feel like we're both going through
Speaker 4: that period.
Speaker 3: Definitely.
Speaker 2: It's so beautiful. It should be extremely outside summer. But
Speaker 2: you do have to gear up into it, gear up
Speaker 2: into it because my thing is you need to know
Speaker 2: what outfits are going to last, what hairstyles are going
Speaker 2: to last, what people can really hang you know what
Speaker 2: I mean. We've been out of practice for a couple
Speaker 2: of years now. People aren't the same, they're not. And
Speaker 2: also we need to get back on those door lists,
Speaker 2: back on the lists. We been out of the game
Speaker 2: for too long. They're forgetting, they're forgetting.
Speaker 3: I know, I can't pay.
Speaker 4: I've been paying. I've been paying my way. Also, support
Speaker 4: musicians babes. Now, I was at this party on Saturday
Speaker 4: night and I was there. I'm single and it was
Speaker 4: a fortieth birthday party, so a lot of people there
Speaker 4: were married. I wasn't looking to tune, honestly. I just went.
Speaker 4: I drove. I was not going to drink. I was
Speaker 4: just so tune. Oh no I would, but you know,
Speaker 4: like I wasn't in the tuning mood. I was like,
Speaker 4: I'm doing this and then I'm going home mood. Anyway,
Speaker 4: get there. It's a fully catered event. Hot, this is
Speaker 4: a boogie fortieth nice. There's a cocktail waiter, there's all
Speaker 4: like fresh food being made in the kitchen. It was
Speaker 4: elite anyway. But this chick comes up to me. Who's
Speaker 4: a friend of this chick? This woman comes up to me. Like,
Speaker 4: then we both get on it. You know, we're like
Speaker 4: having a few drinks.
Speaker 3: Oh and what do you call that? She has bendy arms?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, pull my arm, yeah, pull my finger, choos
Speaker 4: my arm twists. Yeah. We were talking about how she
Speaker 4: lives in Perth and in her age bracket, which is
Speaker 4: thirty thirty one, everyone's married up and having kids. Okay,
Speaker 4: this is a very like settled down here. I've heard.
Speaker 4: I've heard that Perth is like this because I've got
Speaker 4: a few friends in Sydney who moved over from Perth,
Speaker 4: and the story is always the same. You go back,
Speaker 4: everyone's getting engaged and married, whereas in Sydney a lot
Speaker 4: of us are single. She said to me that she's
Speaker 4: got a theory and a thing that she does when
Speaker 4: her married friends ask her about her dating life. Are
Speaker 4: you ready?
Speaker 3: I'm ready this.
Speaker 6: Party, and I've had this thought. So, you know, in
Speaker 6: a relationship, everyone always comes up to me and says,
Speaker 6: have you met someone yet?
Speaker 3: Are you nearly there?
Speaker 6: Oh, don't worry, you'll be there soon. You'll meet someone special.
Speaker 6: What I've started saying now is how's your relationship? How's
Speaker 6: your marriage?
Speaker 4: Is it good? Like?
Speaker 6: You should tell me how you feel, like if I
Speaker 6: put it back in your face, then put a really
Speaker 6: big mirror back onto you. Every time I say it,
Speaker 6: their face goes white and they go they don't know
Speaker 6: what to say.
Speaker 3: So that's what I want to say. That's that's good,
Speaker 3: that's good, that's good. Yeah, I love So there you go.
Speaker 4: She said that she's a single woman and she's often
Speaker 4: asked by the girlies, how's your dating life? Any solacious stories?
Speaker 4: How's a sex life? Wanting the single ladies to go
Speaker 4: in depth when in actuality, when she turns back and says,
Speaker 4: how's your marriage any fights lately? How's it going over there?
Speaker 4: They're reluctant.
Speaker 3: Why is that rhetorical question or one that requires a response?
Speaker 4: I reckon response, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I quite like that.
Speaker 2: But to be fair, in situations where I've done something similar,
Speaker 2: you get that kind of story that's.
Speaker 1: Full of platitudes.
Speaker 3: Oh you know marriage, you know, I miss being single.
Speaker 3: Let me tell you. I used to get on and.
Speaker 2: I used to get near and you you know how
Speaker 2: it is like even on the same person that you
Speaker 2: get And I'm like, no, no, I don't.
Speaker 3: But if you're not gonna be juicy bits, I don't
Speaker 3: want to hear it.
Speaker 4: I think because it feels more permanent. If you're like, oh,
Speaker 4: he's doing this or she's doing this, it then feels
Speaker 4: permanent because they're more involved in your life. When if
Speaker 4: it's like more casual in you're dating people, it's a
Speaker 4: bit more it's noncommittal, like you can talk shit about
Speaker 4: them and then it's not going to come back to
Speaker 4: bite you, whereas if you're talking shit about your husband
Speaker 4: or your wife.
Speaker 2: I also think we have a culture of sharing tales
Speaker 2: and stories when you're.
Speaker 3: Single, and I don't presume.
Speaker 2: That the people you do it with think it still
Speaker 2: happens even when they're not single.
Speaker 3: I definitely did it when I was dating someone, asking
Speaker 3: all my friends, oh my god, how's going show me
Speaker 3: a little apps? You talk to it because that's what
Speaker 3: we do.
Speaker 2: It only feels condescending because we're no longer doing it
Speaker 2: from the same place anymore. So I would err on
Speaker 2: the side of caution of getting heaps mad. But I
Speaker 2: do like the idea of throwing the question back. I
Speaker 2: want the goss, but then also I don't like getting
Speaker 2: the goss because then it's like, shit, gos, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean?
Speaker 3: Now, you told me like all the deep the deep darks, and.
Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, so your whole relationships to performance and
Speaker 2: I can't say anything great.
Speaker 3: Great.
