<v Speaker 1>The Flex and Rooms Daily Podcast, brought to you by.

0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Listen here.

0:00:06.760 --> 0:00:09.120
<v Speaker 3>Okay, enough funny business.

0:00:09.480 --> 0:00:11.880
<v Speaker 2>Can I ask a question. What's the worst gift you

0:00:11.920 --> 0:00:13.039
<v Speaker 2>ever got from a boyfriend?

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Lipstick?

0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh? That's the worst.

0:00:15.840 --> 0:00:16.080
<v Speaker 4>It was.

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:19.040
<v Speaker 3>It was my birthday and he bought me this lipstick.

0:00:19.400 --> 0:00:22.560
<v Speaker 3>What was the brand? It's from Mecca, really good lipstick.

0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:25.919
<v Speaker 3>Pretty sure, I still got it. It's Shanta Cala, Shanta Kai,

0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 3>Shanta Kai. All he bought was a lipstick.

0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's the worst gift.

0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:33.360
<v Speaker 3>Yes, at least chop out like one hundred.

0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:34.760
<v Speaker 2>And fifty how many years it been?

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah a hear Yeah, okay, so you know what hit

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:41.680
<v Speaker 3>me because three months earlier at Christmas, I'm getting a

0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:44.519
<v Speaker 3>veritable buffet of gifts, like four gifts.

0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:47.479
<v Speaker 2>Oh so he kind of like he blew his load

0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:48.640
<v Speaker 2>with that when he was like, oh, we got it.

0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:52.080
<v Speaker 3>However, I will say we'd go to Bali two months

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 3>before and he did pay for that. But like, why

0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:58.760
<v Speaker 3>turn the tap off on the third gift giving?

0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is what I'm saying. You have to start

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:03.400
<v Speaker 2>as you intend to finish, So you can't, like I said,

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:05.520
<v Speaker 2>give it your best shot and then start, you know.

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 2>But this is also The tricky thing about gift giving

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.000
<v Speaker 2>because are you in the camp of people who are

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:12.120
<v Speaker 2>like it needs to be like almost like a surprise,

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 2>or do you want to say, oh, I.

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:15.840
<v Speaker 3>Don't want to fugle you surprise, I shill always crack

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:18.640
<v Speaker 3>it at Christmas? Or my mum would like branch out

0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 3>and get me one surprise would make me so mad

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 3>that I wanted to punch a wall. Why because I

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 3>love my mum. But if it wasn't right, you know,

0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:25.759
<v Speaker 3>I want to like.

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:27.880
<v Speaker 2>It's not right, it's not right, and now I gotta

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.600
<v Speaker 2>be a preacher. Do you feel that. I feel that

0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:32.080
<v Speaker 2>because I see every now and then I do this

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:33.960
<v Speaker 2>thing where I'm like, I can be different, you know,

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Like at the start of October, I was like, I'm

0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:38.280
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a passive princess. I'm not gonna I'm just

0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna like let things happen. No, try that for a

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 2>seven days. It was torturous. I remember with one of

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:45.960
<v Speaker 2>my boyfriends. I was like, you know, I'm gonna try

0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:48.560

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, like I trust you. Yeah, I don't know

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:54.080
<v Speaker 2>what I was thinking because I knew what I wanted,

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 2>but I was like, Max, I wanna say, you can

0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:59.360

0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:06.240
<v Speaker 2>I was like, okay, cool, okay, so what's that? This

0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:10.639
<v Speaker 2>guy got me a microwave number one. I don't even

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:32.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, shut up, honestly, I'm drowning under the confusion.

<v Speaker 3>Let's bring back brattism. Be spoilt little brat. Did you

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:03.680
<v Speaker 3>ever do that beauty test? You should do it. You

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 3>did choke me before. Literally, anyway, we're giving up. We're

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 3>giving away too much Flecks, just this wave of an idiot.

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 3>I had a big ass breeder for a madmex about one.

0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:16.880
<v Speaker 3>Let's stop in there, Let's get as I said, I

0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.680
<v Speaker 3>want to say this one TikTok. Imagine the food that

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:26.080
<v Speaker 3>you've eaten then being inside of your stomach fucked up. Oh,

0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.519
<v Speaker 3>abolish it anyway, whatever, let's.

0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Go Fleck and Frooms.

0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:34.960
<v Speaker 2>Unfortunately, I have some bad news for you. Starting off

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:38.800
<v Speaker 2>on a somber note, Frooms did leave her mug in

0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 2>the work bathroom. It is unfortunately a breach of our

0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 2>comfort and our trust. Why are the sanitary hygienic work

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:55.160
<v Speaker 2>mugs in the unsanitary work bathroom? Through Mini please advice.

0:03:55.760 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 3>Look, I did have a keep cup today, so I

0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.280
<v Speaker 3>went and took a mug from the kitchen and out

0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:03.120
<v Speaker 3>got a coffee at the coffee shop. Finish it, obviously,

0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 3>finished the coffee, run straight to the bathroom. Ye use

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:07.920
<v Speaker 3>the coffee cup in the bathroom, every intention to take

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:09.040
<v Speaker 3>it out and put in the kitchen.

0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh so you've done your bit for the environment, but

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:13.440
<v Speaker 2>not for your fellow men. I understand.

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:16.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, the felat man not got to be around, so

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:18.960
<v Speaker 3>I might as well piss you off. Now, flixie, I

0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:21.040
<v Speaker 3>want to tell you about what happens when you die,

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 3>which seems like clu.

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:23.280
<v Speaker 2>I can tell you what happens.

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:27.400
<v Speaker 3>Okay, let me tell you what it's about to go down.

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:29.400
<v Speaker 3>This is a TikTok.

0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 4>This new study made be excited to die. Researchers were

0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:35.480
<v Speaker 4>able to study what happens when you die by going

0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:37.719
<v Speaker 4>to five hundred and sixty seven patients who were having

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:41.120
<v Speaker 4>cardiac arrests and while they were being resuscitated, studying.

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Their brain, not asking them questions.

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:44.640
<v Speaker 4>They could see that people trying to resuscitate them they

0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:47.120
<v Speaker 4>were aware that they were dying, but they also felt

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.279
<v Speaker 4>this pull towards a place that felt like home in

0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:52.320
<v Speaker 4>their brains. They found that the neurons no longer had

0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:55.040
<v Speaker 4>the same inhibition they did when someone was not quote

0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 4>unquote dying, So their brain started firing in all these

0:04:57.800 --> 0:04:59.920
<v Speaker 4>really intense ways. They didn't really have their lives flash

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 4>before their eyes, but they had this really strong sense

0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.600
<v Speaker 4>of moral judgment of their life, going through every aspect

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:07.800
<v Speaker 4>of their life and almost seeing if what they had

0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:11.320
<v Speaker 4>done had followed proper ethics and moral values. This is

0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:13.800
<v Speaker 4>a fascinating study that makes you realize you need to

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:15.360
<v Speaker 4>be a good person because right before you die, you're

0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:16.919
<v Speaker 4>going to be assessing whether or not you were a

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:19.040
<v Speaker 4>good person. But also that the experience of dying is

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:20.480
<v Speaker 4>going to be very out of body and you know,

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:22.040
<v Speaker 4>honestly croaking my pickle.

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:25.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I disagree with that one. So like, let's say

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:29.240
<v Speaker 2>you are about to die, and then you start measuring

0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:32.720
<v Speaker 2>your life against a moral and ethical code. Hello, keyword,

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>you're about to die. Live it up, live it up,

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 2>live it out. That's not the time to be judging yourself.

0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Get off it. This is it narcissistic?

0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 3>No, we need some self positive informations as you day. Yeah. Also,

0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:47.760
<v Speaker 3>we always talk about this, what is what are morals?

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:50.560
<v Speaker 2>What are morals? Does this name?

0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:52.000
<v Speaker 3>We shouldn't have morals full stop?

0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 2>I think we need a couple just to get by.

0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 2>But I also feel like the emphasis should be living fully.

0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:01.280
<v Speaker 2>So even if there's some look back on, you can

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:03.680
<v Speaker 2>say with certainty, you know it's a bit red hot

0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:07.440
<v Speaker 2>in a few of those years, but I lived, true,

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 2>lived well.

0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:12.640
<v Speaker 3>It makes me think it's like, if you're gonna die anyway,

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 3>who cares if you go through the roller deecks. It's

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:16.920
<v Speaker 3>kind of like when people go, oh, I'm wearing good

0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:18.840
<v Speaker 3>undies in case you get hit by a bus and die.

0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you die, base, that's it, Flex and frooms.

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 3>I've just had a sip from my coke no sugar.

0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:28.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm more of a diet coke girl. The coke no

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.919
<v Speaker 3>sugar tastes like a regular coke but with no sugar,

0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 3>whereas the diet coke has a softer, lighter flavor profile.

0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm all about a regular coke. The last thing I

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:39.800
<v Speaker 2>want is any kind of diet sugar free whatever. Whatever

0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:41.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna do it, Let's crank it. Give me the

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:44.800
<v Speaker 2>stixy tablespoons of sugar. Who gets raised my veins?

0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:46.840
<v Speaker 3>Flex, I've got a This is kind of like an

0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 3>am I the asshole, but it's more like a relationship

0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:52.440
<v Speaker 3>advice issue. It is from a woman who writes, is

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.560
<v Speaker 3>it a bad idea to get my boyfriend a dog?

0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:57.279
<v Speaker 2>Hard the dome?

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's have a look.

0:06:58.680 --> 0:06:59.320
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely.

0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 3>Hi, I twenty three year old female, have been with

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 3>my boyfriend twenty four year old male for four years.

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.960
<v Speaker 3>Who this year, he's mentioned multiple times that he wishes

0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:12.360
<v Speaker 3>he had a puppy, specifically a chiuaba. He's one of

0:07:12.360 --> 0:07:15.320
<v Speaker 3>yours mucking and that he would love to have something

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:16.760
<v Speaker 3>to hang out with and take care of.

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.560
<v Speaker 2>I feel that something is not specific enough for me.

0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:23.840
<v Speaker 3>However, I know that he won't actually take the steps

0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 3>to get one, because he tends to need to be

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:28.000
<v Speaker 3>pushed a little in order to make big decisions or

0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:32.120
<v Speaker 3>changes himself. My baby prints. So I found out that

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.560
<v Speaker 3>a couple in my neighborhood have some newborn chihuahuas that

0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:37.360
<v Speaker 3>they're going to be selling at the end of November.

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 3>I decided that I'm going to surprise my boyfriend with

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 3>a chihuahua as a Christmas present. I went over there

0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 3>and told a couple I was interested. I even picked

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.920
<v Speaker 3>out which dog I'd be buying. I mentioned this to

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:49.280
<v Speaker 3>my friend and she insists that surprising someone with an

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 3>animal is a really bad idea. I thought it would

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:54.920
<v Speaker 3>be nice and thoughtful, and now she has me second

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 3>guessing that what does everyone else think? Too long, don't

0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.520
<v Speaker 3>read I want to surprise my boyfriend with a puppy

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 3>is a Christmas present? Trying to determine whether or not

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 3>this is a recipe for disaster.

0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:09.120
<v Speaker 2>There's a distinction between a push and making the decision

0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:11.160
<v Speaker 2>for him. You know what I'm saying. You know, one

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:13.840
<v Speaker 2>is one is saying, hey, there are some chuahas for sale,

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 2>what do you reckon? And if he said, oh yeah,

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:17.920
<v Speaker 2>I really want to get one, they said, okay, cool,

0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>I'll book an appointment. That's a push. But getting a

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 2>non consensual pet for someone is so hectic. I have

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.800
<v Speaker 2>just come to terms very recently that I really don't

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:31.840
<v Speaker 2>like people who buy pets as successories, because I know

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.720
<v Speaker 2>I would be that person and it's not a good thing.

0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Like my decision making for wanting to get a pet,

0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't have one, by the way, is well, which

0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:40.439
<v Speaker 2>breed do I want to get? And I want to

0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:42.520
<v Speaker 2>get a cute one and one that has this kind

0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:46.840
<v Speaker 2>of coloring, you know, for coloring, And before you know it,

0:08:47.000 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 2>you're not thinking I gotta be with this thing for

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:50.319
<v Speaker 2>fifteen years.

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 3>Now buying a house one hundred percent.

0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.960
<v Speaker 2>I did that on a whim. Two But but I

0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 2>wasn't hurting anyone in that process, you know what I mean,

0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>Like I was atually building something stable for my own future.

0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.400
<v Speaker 2>This random dog that I'm going to pick because it

0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:06.760
<v Speaker 2>looks cute, and then decide that I have the capacity

0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:08.640
<v Speaker 2>to look after it. I don't like that at all.

0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 2>In this instance as well, I was talking to someone

0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 2>the other day or maybe like a month ago, now

0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:17.320
<v Speaker 2>who his The reason why him and his girlfriend broke

0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:20.960
<v Speaker 2>up is because she bought an impulsive pet called him

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.520
<v Speaker 2>up one day they lived together and said, hey, like,

0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:25.720
<v Speaker 2>I just was at the shops. I saw this really

0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:29.040
<v Speaker 2>cute pet. I'm like, I got it, like it's dunt dog.

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:31.920
<v Speaker 2>I should have clarified that sounds odd. I saw a

0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 2>really cute pet, saw a really cute dog. And he

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:37.280
<v Speaker 2>was like, okay, like I made shops. Yeah, even that's

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 2>where I draw the one. He's like, yeah, maybe not.

0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.080
<v Speaker 2>She's like I already got it, like it's already confirmed,

0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:43.439
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm picking it up. I'm taking it home now,

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:45.240
<v Speaker 2>but I need to go out letter, so can you

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 2>look after it? They come home, they have this huge

0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.720
<v Speaker 2>fight because she cannot understand where he's coming from. You

0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:54.959
<v Speaker 2>just gon't buy pets randomly. Naturally. She does not look

0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:57.600
<v Speaker 2>after it. She does not train it, feed it, walk it,

0:09:57.720 --> 0:10:00.400
<v Speaker 2>none of it. They break up. Obviously he's still has

0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 2>the pet.

0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:03.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean maybe he's growing to love the pet.

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh, they like obsessed, like it's great it's a happy ending,

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:08.800
<v Speaker 2>but it could have been an unhappy ending.

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, I've been in this position perform. When me and

0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:15.080
<v Speaker 3>my sister were kids, her friend bought her a cat

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:18.880
<v Speaker 3>whoa like a kitten. Of course, it's very presumptuous. You

0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 3>sister loved it. Of course, my friends are kind of like,

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:22.440
<v Speaker 3>this is crazy.

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.800
<v Speaker 2>It's the whole responsibility you sign me up for.

0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.559
<v Speaker 3>So the friend bought my sister the cat. And then

0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 3>the friend's younger sister came over to hang out at

0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 3>our house, and I had a canary called tweety What

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:38.760
<v Speaker 3>does a little girl do? The little girl crabs tweety

0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:41.840
<v Speaker 3>no out of my cage and puts it in front

0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:44.800
<v Speaker 3>of the cag and the cat.

0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 2>You were in the room with a whole sociopath.

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:51.440
<v Speaker 3>The cat bit my canary's head off. So then obviously

0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 3>I had to get another canary.

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.640
<v Speaker 2>What was it called tweety tweety too? Yeah, of course

0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:56.920
<v Speaker 2>tweety too.

0:10:57.040 --> 0:11:02.200
<v Speaker 3>Naturally, imine that playing with a little sick honestly, but

0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:07.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't really care for pets, so I wasn't that sad. No,

0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm kidding, Rope, She's not kidding.

0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:14.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm not kidding. She's one that is terrifying. I hate

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:16.439
<v Speaker 2>that story. Don't get your boyfriend the chihuahua as sweet

0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.160
<v Speaker 2>as you think. It might be the one thing I

0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 2>know about people who are in relationships, they break up.

0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah they do? Do they do?

0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.960
<v Speaker 2>And you know the worst thing about a breakup is

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 2>you're stuck with those memories and that trauma, and he's

0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:32.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna be stuck with the physical embodiment of your failed relationship.

0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Not that you're breaking up, no god, no, no, no

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.000
<v Speaker 2>no no, but you could.

0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 3>Leave that little body thing in the cage. Please, thanks truly,

0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:45.520
<v Speaker 3>This is flex and frooms for me.

0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Has only had, you know, two career paths in her life.

0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:52.880
<v Speaker 2>One was selling window tint and the second being a

0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 2>media personality. I have had a bajillion, bajillion jobs career paths.

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 2>The whole thing started at McDonald's, as you do. How

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.719
<v Speaker 2>many years, I don't know. I did three months. Yeah,

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:05.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I did very long.

0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:08.480
<v Speaker 3>You were definitely the one with the headset on bar.

0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:11.320
<v Speaker 2>No no, no, no no. I was in the drive through, and

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:13.080
<v Speaker 2>then I was front cashier, and then it was just

0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:16.080
<v Speaker 2>a lot like it was very high stress, and I

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 2>just went there to hunt with my friends because we

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:20.319
<v Speaker 2>all got jobs. There wasn't I wasn't serious. Worked at Diva,

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 2>the jewelry store. Rip, you are such a dance, such

0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:27.080
<v Speaker 2>a d guy. Worked at Some Last Heart did a

0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:29.800
<v Speaker 2>bunch of things right, But there was a point in time.

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 2>I worked at Bets Shoes and Zoo Shoes, right, and

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Zoo Shoes was a footwear store for men and women.

0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:39.040
<v Speaker 3>Very cool, very cool.

0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:41.080
<v Speaker 2>I worked at the Bondai one. So if you know,

0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:44.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, and so generally when we do I my

0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:47.040
<v Speaker 2>best friend there Sully shout out, that's what we meant.

0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:50.040
<v Speaker 2>The store was split in two men's shoes on one side, women'

0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:51.840
<v Speaker 2>shoes on the other. And then often what would happen

0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:53.959
<v Speaker 2>when two people were working, you'd separate and you kind

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.800
<v Speaker 2>of tackle one or the other generally, right, and then

0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:58.640
<v Speaker 2>you kind of developed your habit of knowing who to

0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:00.920
<v Speaker 2>sell to. And I just always selling to men. I

0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.360
<v Speaker 2>felt like it was an easy sale. It is what

0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:06.680
<v Speaker 2>it is, internalized misogyny much, No, not at all. It's

0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:10.199
<v Speaker 2>just like in that was like a play joke. Babes,

0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:11.480
<v Speaker 2>you're a comedian. They got a lamb better?

0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:13.599
<v Speaker 1>Why am I?

0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Why are.

0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:19.120
<v Speaker 3>Something is gone?

0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:23.760
<v Speaker 2>All right? So The reason why I'm bringing this up

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:25.360
<v Speaker 2>is because the other day I was on my Love

0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:27.720
<v Speaker 2>Island show. I've got a text with Josh and flex. Josh,

0:13:27.760 --> 0:13:31.240
<v Speaker 2>my co host, complimented my shoes, my Balantiaca crocs the

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:35.080
<v Speaker 2>greatest right now, other ones. But I was wearing my

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:38.719
<v Speaker 2>slip on crocs and then I said, He's like, well,

0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:40.920
<v Speaker 2>what size are you? And then I was like, oh,

0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm a men's eight and a half nine. And I

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:44.679
<v Speaker 2>was like, what size are you? Am you going to

0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:46.760
<v Speaker 2>say you're an eleven? And he was like, oh yeah,

0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:48.720
<v Speaker 2>I am like I'm like an eleven. I'm like, yeah, okay,

0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 2>because all men are size elevens. He's like, what are

0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:55.160
<v Speaker 2>you talking about. I'm like, in my experience, the majority

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:58.640
<v Speaker 2>of men who walked into this shoe store, you'd say, hey,

0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:00.400
<v Speaker 2>what size are you? They'd be like, I don't know

0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.360
<v Speaker 2>either one, I don't know. I gotta ask my girlfriend,

0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 2>I got to ask my mom. Those were the answers.

0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:10.439
<v Speaker 2>And if it wasn't those three, the fourth are size

0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:15.040
<v Speaker 2>eleven twelve. Okay, so you've got liars, liars, liars liars,

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 2>So naturally I'm talking to Josh and I say, okay, cool,

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.880
<v Speaker 2>let me try on your shoes. I'll bet I'll fit them. Betty,

0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:27.000
<v Speaker 2>you try my shoes? What does he do? He swoops,

0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.640
<v Speaker 2>he's went to the Plantager Croc Perfect fit, perfect fit.

0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:33.960
<v Speaker 2>He said he was a size eleven. So he's like,

0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:36.200
<v Speaker 2>whoa he' said these seem a little big. They seem

0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.520
<v Speaker 2>a little big. Maybe your feet are big at no faith, No, no, no,

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:42.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm a size eight and a half. Nine men, you're

0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 2>also a size eight and a half, he said, he's

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.160
<v Speaker 2>here eleven. I don't want to hear it. So back

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:50.120
<v Speaker 2>in the shoe store, though, every time, pull out of

0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:52.480
<v Speaker 2>size eleven and we get a ten down just in case.

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Not climbate that latter twice for this guy who's a lie.

0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:56.680
<v Speaker 2>So you give me eleven. Oh, these seem like they

0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 2>made kind of big. Did you want to size down?

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm usually an eleven. Oh okay, these ones seem to

0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:05.320
<v Speaker 2>be made big. Maybe try it. Maybe try the ten.

0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Do you have a half size ten and a half?

0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 2>No we don't. You just get to get the ten,

0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 2>bring out the ten, put it on. Yeah, these seem huge.

0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:15.920
<v Speaker 2>These seem really really big. I mean, do you want

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:17.720
<v Speaker 2>to try the size down? It just seems like a

0:15:17.720 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 2>weird making model. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Majority of the time

0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 2>these men were size eighth and size nines, and there's

0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:26.120
<v Speaker 2>no shame in it. You're just not all built like

0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.560
<v Speaker 2>a size eleven. It's like, how there are no guys

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:30.000
<v Speaker 2>who are five to eleven. It's a fake hut.

0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 3>It is a fake hut. What is with all this dysmorphia? Guys?

0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what? I can't even throw shade because

0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:40.560
<v Speaker 2>I've been going through my own battle with dysmalphia shout out.

0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:43.360
<v Speaker 2>So in my head, I'm a tall person, I swear

0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:47.160
<v Speaker 2>to you. In my head, I'm five ten, maybe even

0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:49.440
<v Speaker 2>five eleven, And it only dawned to me in the

0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.760
<v Speaker 2>last six months or so because I'm always wearing a

0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:53.240
<v Speaker 2>high ponytail and a platform.

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 3>Yes always.

0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:58.160
<v Speaker 2>The platform is giving three inches maybe four. The pony

0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:01.080
<v Speaker 2>is giving an extra one or two. I'm walking around

0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:03.720
<v Speaker 2>five ten, five eleven looking at fellow five ten to

0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:06.240
<v Speaker 2>being like, where this is us? We're in it together.

0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:07.720
<v Speaker 3>It's not your community, bit, it's not.

0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Because I stand next to someone who I perceived to

0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:11.280
<v Speaker 2>be short and they're.

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:12.440
<v Speaker 3>Towering over meus me.

0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 2>It's cooked. So I'm working through it. You'll notice today

0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm not doing the high pony because I'm practicing what

0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.480
<v Speaker 2>it's like to show up as myself. Obviously wearing the

0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.600
<v Speaker 2>three inches because don't be ridiculous, they're.

0:16:23.400 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 3>Bigger than three inches. You've got these massive black blints.

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.200
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't know. I don't know.

0:16:29.480 --> 0:16:30.640
<v Speaker 3>That's at least five inches.

0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, So to me and the men lying about our

0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 2>heights and shoe size, this is what it is. No shade,

0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:37.080
<v Speaker 2>just in confessions.

0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:38.560
<v Speaker 3>Get closer to your real self.

0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:41.560
<v Speaker 1>This is flex and frooms on Kita.

0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.440
<v Speaker 2>The other day, I bumped my knuckle on the corner

0:16:44.520 --> 0:16:48.040
<v Speaker 2>of my bathroom mirror cabinet. It sort of nicked a

0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:50.440
<v Speaker 2>bit of skin, It didn't bleed. Didn't think much of it.

0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:54.600
<v Speaker 2>Why is it raised? Why is there a bump, and

0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:55.720
<v Speaker 2>why does it still hurt?

0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:58.320
<v Speaker 3>Let me tell you why. That was actually a figment

0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:01.320
<v Speaker 3>of your imagination that occurrence. But what really happened was

0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:06.000
<v Speaker 3>while you're asleep, Edwin Colin came in and had a

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.480
<v Speaker 3>little nibbling on your finger. Just get a little taste.

0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.879
<v Speaker 3>See if you're rolling with that, Oh blood type.

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.879
<v Speaker 2>I think I am, oh blood time really yeah, I

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:15.240
<v Speaker 2>just knew.

0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:21.919
<v Speaker 3>Ready, listen to this. That's Edward Clin cracking open a

0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:23.080
<v Speaker 3>can of your blood. Girl.

0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:26.480
<v Speaker 2>That's really romantic. Thank you so much for sharing number two.

0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 2>Four years, I've been plagued with moving into apartments with

0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:34.760
<v Speaker 2>bad tasting tap water. Every time I expressed this concern,

0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:37.320
<v Speaker 2>people gas like me. They don't say, let me come

0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.720
<v Speaker 2>over and try the tap water. They say, no, no, no, no,

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:42.600
<v Speaker 2>you must be picky, or only people who don't drink

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:44.879
<v Speaker 2>water enough don't know what water should taste, like Laddy

0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:48.720
<v Speaker 2>daddy dada out. No I've tasted at all. What I've

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:50.600
<v Speaker 2>done is every time someone comes over, I make them

0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:53.160
<v Speaker 2>taste the tapwater. And what do they say? Oh, my goodness,

0:17:53.240 --> 0:17:56.359
<v Speaker 2>so true, your pipes might be too fresh. Then I

0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:58.199
<v Speaker 2>start doing some googlings, and I was like, yeah, there

0:17:58.280 --> 0:17:59.560
<v Speaker 2>is like a bit of that taste. It's like you

0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 2>know when you get a new aluminium lined bottle, it

0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:05.480
<v Speaker 2>has that taste. You know, it's probably what's happening in

0:18:05.520 --> 0:18:08.840
<v Speaker 2>your apartment. And the good tasting water is from you know,

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:13.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to say it, but decrepit taps, really,

0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:17.560
<v Speaker 2>I think. So that's the only correlation. You move somewhere fresh,

0:18:17.680 --> 0:18:20.320
<v Speaker 2>you get the fresh pipes. You're getting all the chemicals

0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:23.000
<v Speaker 2>and the things that we used to like make the pipe,

0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 2>and the residue of the aluminium and the metal. It's

0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:31.440
<v Speaker 2>actually terrifying because now bottle water Warrior, it's not sexy.

0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:34.040
<v Speaker 3>What I do want to say is I just thought

0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:35.480
<v Speaker 3>of it. When you have a Tapo home that you're

0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 3>drinking from and you turn the tap on, is the

0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 3>water is just chilling there in the pipe until you

0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 3>turn it on.

0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:42.399
<v Speaker 2>No, it's not getting pushed up. I mean, I know

0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:44.399
<v Speaker 2>I've seen my water pipes in the garage, so that

0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:46.800
<v Speaker 2>they're coming through a bunch of different tubes. But by

0:18:46.800 --> 0:18:49.400
<v Speaker 2>the time they get to mine, they're going through old

0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:53.120
<v Speaker 2>tubes into my newtubes, picking up the newtube residue. And

0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:54.639
<v Speaker 2>I think, I know you want to ask, like, what

0:18:54.680 --> 0:18:56.280
<v Speaker 2>does it taste like. I can tell you exactly what

0:18:56.280 --> 0:18:59.520
<v Speaker 2>it tastes like. First, thing's gritty. It tastes gritty, and

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:02.840
<v Speaker 2>like there's a sensation that feels as though there's sediment

0:19:03.080 --> 0:19:06.280
<v Speaker 2>or dust or dirt that's sitting at the bottom of something.

0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:07.960
<v Speaker 2>And by the time it gets up, it's picking up

0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:09.000
<v Speaker 2>a bit with it picking up a bit, with it,

0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:11.399
<v Speaker 2>picking up a bit with It also tastes as if

0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:15.760
<v Speaker 2>I was in my bear grills era. I'm like doing

0:19:15.840 --> 0:19:20.240
<v Speaker 2>some off you know, off path, rough terrain hiking. I've

0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:22.359
<v Speaker 2>stopped by a local lake to get a bit of

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.800
<v Speaker 2>water because I've run out of my own. I've scooped

0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:26.359
<v Speaker 2>a bit of that water where the pebbles are, not

0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:28.760
<v Speaker 2>in the pit, but where the pebbles are you get

0:19:28.760 --> 0:19:30.639
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of something. That's what it tastes like.

0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:33.040
<v Speaker 3>Why are always people having the water from the pebble

0:19:33.080 --> 0:19:34.479
<v Speaker 3>bit rather than the stream.

0:19:35.080 --> 0:19:36.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure. Because the pebble bit is where it's

0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:38.920
<v Speaker 2>just been sitting stagnant. I feel like you'd want it

0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:39.480
<v Speaker 2>from the stream.

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:42.080
<v Speaker 3>Also, it's where the rain comes down. Well, I will say,

0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:44.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm having the opposite problem. My building's probably built in

0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:49.280
<v Speaker 3>the nineteen forties. The water is cloudy, cloudy, apple, bro.

0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:50.280
<v Speaker 3>It's not looking good.

0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:51.520
<v Speaker 2>It's not looking good, bro.

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.119
<v Speaker 3>So what I suggest you do is it a soda stream.

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:55.200
<v Speaker 3>It's good for the impire.

0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:56.560
<v Speaker 2>I have one, but then I need to use the

0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:59.240
<v Speaker 2>tap water to use a soda stream. So someone said

0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:01.080
<v Speaker 2>ihould use a brit of But it wasn't American who

0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:03.200
<v Speaker 2>told me that, And I just felt like, no comment,

0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:03.919
<v Speaker 2>no comment.

0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:07.680
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Flex and Frooms on Kada.

0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:11.040
<v Speaker 2>For a moment they're getting DMS was not fun. But

0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:14.520
<v Speaker 2>you guys have been really really poping off recently. Got

0:20:14.560 --> 0:20:18.080
<v Speaker 2>one the other day, it says, and I quote, Hey, Flex,

0:20:18.200 --> 0:20:20.480
<v Speaker 2>you said once that if people don't DM you after

0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:23.679
<v Speaker 2>following you, you think they're a bot. I don't remember

0:20:23.680 --> 0:20:28.480
<v Speaker 2>saying that, but I stand by it. So after several months,

0:20:28.560 --> 0:20:31.320
<v Speaker 2>I want to prove that I'm not. Recently, in your podcast,

0:20:31.359 --> 0:20:33.720
<v Speaker 2>I heard you teasing Rooms for not knowing how to close,

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:35.800
<v Speaker 2>and I can't bullying.

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:38.919
<v Speaker 3>You can say what it was harassment in the workplace.

0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:44.880
<v Speaker 2>In the workplace, HR is not present, this person says,

0:20:44.880 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 2>and I can't either either. I never know which one

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:50.639
<v Speaker 2>it is either. So if it's not too forward to

0:20:50.680 --> 0:20:52.680
<v Speaker 2>suggest it would be fun to hear you guys chat

0:20:52.720 --> 0:20:54.600
<v Speaker 2>about it someday and maybe you could share some tips

0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:58.600
<v Speaker 2>of the train. Also, no, that's a private message, love

0:20:58.640 --> 0:20:59.600
<v Speaker 2>for me your fellow aries.

0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:03.680
<v Speaker 3>So our woman in the DMS wants to know how

0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:06.359
<v Speaker 3>do I close in a relationship in a sexual way

0:21:06.640 --> 0:21:07.840
<v Speaker 3>with a prospective partner.

0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:10.119
<v Speaker 2>I think we can broaden it out. Closing is just

0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:13.320
<v Speaker 2>getting to your desired outcome. Okay, right, So that could

0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:15.560
<v Speaker 2>be a text back, that could be a date, that

0:21:15.600 --> 0:21:18.639
<v Speaker 2>could be a root, that could be marriage, could be children.

0:21:19.040 --> 0:21:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Though I tease you for not knowing how to close,

0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:24.359
<v Speaker 2>I'll have you know that Frumi does in fact have game.

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:26.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to put it out on record. I'm going

0:21:26.080 --> 0:21:28.760
<v Speaker 2>to manifest into Frumy's life. Frumy has a ton of game.

0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:31.439
<v Speaker 2>If you saw her roster, okay, if you saw her

0:21:31.480 --> 0:21:35.359
<v Speaker 2>past conquests, you would know the jokings in jests, the

0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:37.040
<v Speaker 2>teasings and jests. It's a bit of a gag.

0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:38.399
<v Speaker 3>Okay, don't jinx it.

0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:40.080
<v Speaker 2>What do you mean jinx it?

0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:42.720
<v Speaker 3>Say that I've done well in the past.

0:21:42.720 --> 0:21:44.800
<v Speaker 2>So you want to humble your game because I can

0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 2>do it?

0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:46.520
<v Speaker 3>Okay? Yeah, no, I've had enough.

0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Any tips for how to close?

0:21:47.840 --> 0:21:50.480
<v Speaker 3>Okay, tips on how to close? Think about this like

0:21:50.520 --> 0:21:55.640
<v Speaker 3>a business meeting. Never under sell yourself, never explain too much.

0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:58.119
<v Speaker 3>So when you're texting somebody, you don't go, oh, and

0:21:58.200 --> 0:21:59.560
<v Speaker 3>I did this on the weekend. I did that on

0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 3>the weekend. And let's strip it back. Why are they

0:22:01.840 --> 0:22:03.840
<v Speaker 3>texting you? Do they want to go for a route?

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:04.440
<v Speaker 2>Probably?

0:22:04.520 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 3>Yes, let's keep it simple. Wait, okay, number two. I

0:22:09.359 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 3>don't want to say play it cool.

0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:15.679
<v Speaker 2>You've already lost me. But it's good. We have different approaches.

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:18.360
<v Speaker 3>Please, Okay, let me think about it. I meet someone

0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:21.119
<v Speaker 3>at the club, I think they're really cute. Maybe the

0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:23.440
<v Speaker 3>reason why I'm not closing is I have a self

0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 3>confidence issue. You know, this comes up time and time again.

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:28.240
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes you just need to go on the date. So

0:22:28.280 --> 0:22:31.000
<v Speaker 3>we have to do put yourself out there and just say.

0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:33.080
<v Speaker 3>The worst that can happen is you don't take the

0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:35.719
<v Speaker 3>shot and you don't get anything. So just put it

0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:38.360
<v Speaker 3>that way. Also, I heard Chantelle Ott and the sex

0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:42.120
<v Speaker 3>Ologist once say that you should approach dating like it's

0:22:42.200 --> 0:22:44.920
<v Speaker 3>like fun, like think of the story. And I think

0:22:44.920 --> 0:22:46.600
<v Speaker 3>if you're thinking of your life as a story, which

0:22:46.640 --> 0:22:51.080
<v Speaker 3>is quite a narcissistic main character energy approach, which I back,

0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:55.200
<v Speaker 3>just think of the story. So just try and approach someone,

0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:56.200
<v Speaker 3>try and close it.

0:22:57.800 --> 0:22:58.560
<v Speaker 2>Let's stop you there.

0:23:00.520 --> 0:23:01.639
<v Speaker 3>I didn't really answer the question.

0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:04.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, let's stop you there. Okay, this is how

0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 2>you close. A Comprehensive guide by Lillian Flexmami A. Hankm

0:23:09.400 --> 0:23:11.399
<v Speaker 2>So what you want to do is you need to

0:23:11.520 --> 0:23:15.160
<v Speaker 2>know your role in life, know what role you play,

0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:18.360
<v Speaker 2>and play that position accordingly. So for me, I try

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:20.439
<v Speaker 2>not to give dating advice people who are not feral

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:23.040
<v Speaker 2>and also Turbo. It's never gonna work because as you

0:23:23.160 --> 0:23:26.000
<v Speaker 2>start is as you have to maintain, is as you

0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:28.680
<v Speaker 2>have to finish. Right, there's nothing worse than someone coming

0:23:28.680 --> 0:23:31.840
<v Speaker 2>in all hot and then realizing they're insecure, or they're

0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:34.400
<v Speaker 2>not hot, or they don't have the confidence to keep

0:23:34.400 --> 0:23:37.840
<v Speaker 2>it up. It sends mixed signals. So if you are

0:23:37.920 --> 0:23:40.520
<v Speaker 2>in ares, I did clock that, so i'mna say you're

0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 2>a fellow Turbo number one. You always have to make

0:23:44.359 --> 0:23:47.840
<v Speaker 2>sure you're creating a comfortable environment for the preferred outcome.

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Everybody loves flirty, they love fun, they love a safe

0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:55.960
<v Speaker 2>place to land. If you aren't creating fun, flirty, safe

0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:58.720
<v Speaker 2>place to land, you're never gonna close, all right, So

0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:01.359
<v Speaker 2>you need to be making sure that everybody comfortable, everyone

0:24:01.400 --> 0:24:05.480
<v Speaker 2>feels safe to share. It's amazing. From there, I need

0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:11.879
<v Speaker 2>eye contact, prolonged, I need full sentences, no mumbling. I

0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:17.879
<v Speaker 2>need direct, direct everything. That's part one. Part two of

0:24:17.960 --> 0:24:22.719
<v Speaker 2>closing is plausible deniability. Everything you do you need to

0:24:22.760 --> 0:24:25.000
<v Speaker 2>have the potential to shake it off if it doesn't

0:24:25.040 --> 0:24:28.080
<v Speaker 2>land all right. So if you say, oh, my goodness,

0:24:28.200 --> 0:24:30.280
<v Speaker 2>you're so cute and they're like, I have a girlfriend,

0:24:30.320 --> 0:24:34.480
<v Speaker 2>you're like, oh, can I compliment a friend? You can't

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:39.320
<v Speaker 2>compliment people this that's phase two. Once you know there's

0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:42.639
<v Speaker 2>mutual thirst, you take a page out of Flex's book

0:24:42.720 --> 0:24:45.000
<v Speaker 2>and you say the most direct thing you can think of.

0:24:45.840 --> 0:24:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I think you're cute, and I think you want to

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:49.480
<v Speaker 2>take me on a date? Am I wrong? Intogestion that

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:52.719
<v Speaker 2>and they say, oh my goodness, ha ha ha, I

0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:55.520
<v Speaker 2>love that. Your so forward ha. Then you're on a

0:24:55.600 --> 0:24:59.240
<v Speaker 2>date and you fall in love. Works every time. Don't

0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 2>do it if you're not trying to secure someone though,

0:25:01.600 --> 0:25:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Otherwise you become the love bomber that I was in

0:25:03.640 --> 0:25:04.119
<v Speaker 2>my past.

0:25:04.840 --> 0:25:06.120
<v Speaker 3>No more of that. I think we need to put

0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:08.640
<v Speaker 3>this into a video and go tick one, two, three

0:25:09.240 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 3>as your tips, and then we'll go.

0:25:12.680 --> 0:25:14.439
<v Speaker 2>No, don't do that. Don't do that.

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:18.160
