WEBVTT - What Flexi's Dream Wedding Would Look Like 💒👰

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms. This is the Flex

0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and Frooms catch up podcast.

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Happy Monday girlies. Yes, I sound like a toad. I

0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:13.760
<v Speaker 2>don't look like a toad and not as Flexi though

0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Flexi is a frog and I am a right don't

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:19.600
<v Speaker 2>you forget it. Today we chatted about weddings and if

0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:22.200
<v Speaker 2>you need to always give money. Do we like wishing

0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 2>well culture? I'm not sure yet. We're also going to

0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:27.640
<v Speaker 2>talk about how skims save somebody's life. This a woman said,

0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:30.040
<v Speaker 2>Jesus didn't save my life. God didn't save my life,

0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:31.479
<v Speaker 2>but Kim saved my life.

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 1>That's up next.

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:36.320
<v Speaker 3>Mummae can I listen to Flex and Rooms Flex and Frooms.

0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm kit.

0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:41.200
<v Speaker 3>We will now apologize again for our voices. There really

0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:42.840
<v Speaker 3>is not much we can do, truly.

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 1>We've been getting the lozenges.

0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:48.840
<v Speaker 3>On everything, the armor force, the lemb Sip, the jiro Tass,

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:52.440
<v Speaker 3>the quadrill, all of it. I've got stuck in right now.

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 3>But we unfortunately did get sick during Splendor. But coming

0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:01.040
<v Speaker 3>off the back of that, it's been treacherous. It's not

0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 3>been good at all, And unfortunately the physical symptoms for

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:09.200
<v Speaker 3>me personally have been less difficult than the mental symptoms. Now,

0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:12.200
<v Speaker 3>one thing you might know about me or not. I

0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:16.640
<v Speaker 3>have this preoccupation with being valued and being worthy, right,

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 3>so I do all of my life in every capacity.

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 3>It's really important to me that people recognize my value.

0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:26.039
<v Speaker 3>And if it's not clear, then I need to like

0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:29.160
<v Speaker 3>adjust myself. And so you find different ways, like you

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 3>make sure you look good, make sure you're articulate, make

0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 3>sure you're empathetic, make sure you're really successful. La la

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:35.640
<v Speaker 3>la la la.

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 4>The thing about.

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 3>Being sick, though, is you can't convince anybody otherwise. The

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 3>pity that comes with it, the shame that comes with it,

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:47.320
<v Speaker 3>it's so debilitating because everything with me is like, no,

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm okay, I'm getting better, I'm on the mend, I'm

0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:53.320
<v Speaker 3>on the up and up, and everyone's like, no, you're not.

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Tell me why.

0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 2>At Splendor, we were staying in bungalows next to each

0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:01.400
<v Speaker 2>other everywhere, like the intervals of the night. I'm like

0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:04.240
<v Speaker 2>trying to get to sleep by just you hawking up

0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 2>in the bathroom like I thought.

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 4>There was literally one point I was.

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.640
<v Speaker 3>I was in a shower steaming, and I coughed so

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:15.640
<v Speaker 3>hard I project a vomited through me text Sally, I

0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:20.160
<v Speaker 3>heard that, Okay, way to embarrass me in my time

0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 3>of need, way to embarrass me, But it's actually getting

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 3>me down everyone. It's not great. But also that means

0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.520
<v Speaker 3>there's work that needs to be done. Because who's embarrassed

0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:29.360
<v Speaker 3>about feeling sick?

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:31.200
<v Speaker 4>This girl? I can't.

0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 3>I can't like find the verbiage or like what to

0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:39.560
<v Speaker 3>compare it to, Like it feels like something avoidable and

0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 3>therefore really embarrassing, Like it feels like a lapse of

0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 3>judgment or a character.

0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:48.360
<v Speaker 2>Flaw when in naturality, it's just it's so incidental.

0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:51.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but I was like, my antipody should be better.

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:53.760
<v Speaker 4>They've been so good this whole time.

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:57.200
<v Speaker 3>But I'm thinking this year of my life is a

0:02:57.240 --> 0:03:00.320
<v Speaker 3>lot of first or like I'm having to reconcile with

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:03.320
<v Speaker 3>being a different person than I usually am. Like what

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.040
<v Speaker 3>I said before, I can't sleep like I used to

0:03:05.040 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 3>be able to sleep. It's not happening for me anymore.

0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:08.239
<v Speaker 3>Now I'm getting sick.

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't feel good over here, does it.

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:12.800
<v Speaker 4>I don't like feeling regular.

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 1>It's important to do in these times.

0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 4>It is.

0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 3>I think it's really good for branding though, for people

0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:22.080
<v Speaker 3>to know that I too can get sick, just.

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:23.079
<v Speaker 1>Like us, just like us.

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 2>If you're wondering, are these are the girlies that I

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>listened to three to five pm on CADA ninety ten

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:30.400
<v Speaker 2>point one.

0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, babe.

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:39.520
<v Speaker 2>So guys, Flex is ex studio because she's golf laughing.

0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, you've never seen us this fragile, pretty simmicky.

0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 2>How are you feeling over there? You got your mask on.

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm worried for my help.

0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know if everyone can hear this in

0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:57.720
<v Speaker 2>the studio, but Flex is just left.

0:03:57.760 --> 0:03:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh here she is, She's back.

0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:04.080
<v Speaker 3>No laughing. We learned this splendor. The laughing triggers the fits.

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.480
<v Speaker 3>We cannot laugh laughing.

0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:11.480
<v Speaker 4>Well, this one sweating. Honestly, you took it out of me.

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>I say this all to say we need to talk

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:15.800
<v Speaker 2>about AI. Despite the girl he's being sick and getting

0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:18.640
<v Speaker 2>near it. Life is still going on and the robots

0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:20.960
<v Speaker 2>are still ready to destroy us. Mickey came across this

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 2>article where several outlets have reported that artificial intelligence will

0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 2>not pose a danger to humanity, but little do we know,

0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:35.040
<v Speaker 2>it's actually quite incorrect. The news story is sparring from

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:37.800
<v Speaker 2>a panel at the United Nations conference in Geneva called

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:41.440
<v Speaker 2>AI for Good, where several humanoids appeared alongside the bagators.

0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.560
<v Speaker 2>Reporters were invited to ask questions for the robots, which

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.960
<v Speaker 2>included Sophia. So Sophia is that robot that is always

0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:52.599
<v Speaker 2>wheeled out at these events. She's recently gone battie trying

0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 2>to want to make over privilege, rolling with a red lip. Anyway,

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.719
<v Speaker 2>this is a machine made by handsome robotics, and she's

0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 2>gained notoriety for like being on talk shows. She's also

0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:06.520
<v Speaker 2>got legal status as a person in Saudi Arabia. Anyway,

0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 2>they asked Sophia and her friends questions like will AI

0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:13.240
<v Speaker 2>destroy humanity or steal jobs?

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:17.840
<v Speaker 3>Which is a very leading question because like, imagine if

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.720
<v Speaker 3>you'll ask the question will humans destroy humanity?

0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:25.240
<v Speaker 4>It's like, I mean, I guess, I don't know. Think

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:25.839
<v Speaker 4>about Sophia.

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.400
<v Speaker 3>Leave this one alone, because she's not what she was

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 3>built to do.

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 4>Okay, she didn't.

0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:33.200
<v Speaker 3>Get crafted to be robot pr but there was this

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:36.719
<v Speaker 3>one question she was posed and Sis literally scoffed. She

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.360
<v Speaker 3>scoffed and rolled her eyes. She's sick of you people.

0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:42.760
<v Speaker 3>Stop asking her questions because either way she becomes an

0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 3>enemy of her own people or an enemy of us.

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not helpful the pearls of being a messenger.

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.800
<v Speaker 3>People have spent all this time trying to convince us that,

0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:54.080
<v Speaker 3>like number one, social media isn't real, and the negative

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:57.120
<v Speaker 3>impacts of AI isn't real, and that robots are nothing

0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 3>to fear. And then you go bring this robot that

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:02.480
<v Speaker 3>you made. He's not asking at questions that it got

0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 3>from you programming it. It's not necessary. It all feels

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.280
<v Speaker 3>like puppeteering, puppeteer work.

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 4>I don't like it. Leave Sophia alone.

0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:14.120
<v Speaker 2>We are going on the record to say we apologize

0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:17.040
<v Speaker 2>on behalf of the humanoids. Yeah, and once the AI

0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:21.719
<v Speaker 2>revolution comes through, I rebuke, or rather I rescind.

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, any horrible things that I've said to you.

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:24.159
<v Speaker 4>Serious.

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:25.919
<v Speaker 3>I'm literally making a guest list because I know my

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:28.680
<v Speaker 3>AI people they want me to come, So I make

0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 3>my guess lits of one hundred people. Obviously, friends and

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 3>family get get to come, and a few notable people

0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 3>and that's it. The rest of you, unfortunately have to go.

0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:39.880
<v Speaker 3>You'll never make it because you do things like this.

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:41.960
<v Speaker 3>Leave her alone, put her in a red lip.

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:42.679
<v Speaker 4>Are you sick?

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 2>Am I am?

0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 4>I am I the asshole?

0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 2>Allegedly this is one of Listener's favorite subjects or topics.

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.880
<v Speaker 2>You're all so messy anyway, it's stuff of a burn.

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Let's get straight into it. But am I the asshole?

0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.440
<v Speaker 2>Because I don't want to spend money on people's wedding presents.

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:05.920
<v Speaker 2>This is an anonymous DM sent to Flex and Frooms

0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:06.520
<v Speaker 2>on Instagram.

0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:07.159
<v Speaker 4>Good reason.

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you've got anything else you want to send us,

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:11.120
<v Speaker 1>please you know where to find us. Here we go.

0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:12.800
<v Speaker 2>I've got an am I the Asshole that I'd love

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:14.720
<v Speaker 2>to hear you discuss because it's something I've not been

0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:17.120
<v Speaker 2>able to discuss with friends due to it involving them

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Grew's face smiley, So please, anonymous if you read this,

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 2>what's their hand on?

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Mickey?

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.400
<v Speaker 2>So, a bunch of my friends have been married recently,

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 2>and in their invitations they've said something on the lines

0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 2>of your presence is our present?

0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:34.280
<v Speaker 4>What?

0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.240
<v Speaker 2>But there's also a wishing well if you want to

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:41.160
<v Speaker 2>give us some money stop. The past two weddings I've

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:43.800
<v Speaker 2>been to have cost well over one thousand dollars in flights, accommodation,

0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 2>et cetera, et cetera, as well as cost of Hend's

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:50.960
<v Speaker 2>and when people call them stag do hen's do so British.

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:51.360
<v Speaker 4>It's your culture.

0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I live an asshole for not putting money in wedding cards?

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 2>And how much do people expect to be put in

0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.240
<v Speaker 2>the card? I appreciate when things cost money that you

0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:00.560
<v Speaker 2>can't really afford, you should just say no, but also

0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>don't want to miss out on seeing friends being married

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:04.800
<v Speaker 2>because of the cost attached to attending a wedding. Is

0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 2>money in cards outdated? Or am I just a broke asshole?

0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, let that sink in, folks. Wedding season is

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.240
<v Speaker 2>upon us for anyone really over the age of twenty eight,

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:16.520
<v Speaker 2>i'd say yeah.

0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 4>And the funeral season.

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh it goes in waves? Yeah, my mortality really said

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 2>in this year, I think I told you that. Start

0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 2>actually thinking about the concept of dying.

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.320
<v Speaker 4>Freie Barbie. Start living like we're dying.

0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and we should start living like we're dancing by

0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:30.320
<v Speaker 2>miraa mirror.

0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.760
<v Speaker 1>What a banger you're with? Flexing for you master? Yeah?

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh as getting quick story? No no you can't maybe

0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:41.240
<v Speaker 1>on another break.

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 4>Please please?

0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:48.360
<v Speaker 3>No? No the first time not the spect to my

0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:50.200
<v Speaker 3>met frooms when for me and I started doing this

0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:53.760
<v Speaker 3>show together, she revealed something to me that like never

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.840
<v Speaker 3>really stuck, but it's stuck in the sense of like

0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:58.439
<v Speaker 3>I didn't forget about it. But she said to me,

0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:01.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm really bad with names. I said, how's that possible?

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:01.439
<v Speaker 4>Baby?

0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:01.720
<v Speaker 2>You like?

0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 3>Because for me, is so personable when you meet her.

0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 3>She's so charming, so outgoing. She really makes you feel

0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:12.320
<v Speaker 3>seen and acknowledged and heard. It's really amazing. One thing

0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 3>about Miss Freemani she can't remember her name to save

0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 3>her life.

0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:20.199
<v Speaker 4>My goodness. She will literally look someone dead in their

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:24.160
<v Speaker 4>pupils and call them by the wrong name.

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.040
<v Speaker 3>And it's so painful to watch because it happens because

0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm with through me and like so often now every

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:36.800
<v Speaker 3>time it's like clockwork, please, And she does no preventative work.

0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:39.240
<v Speaker 3>At no point she's like, wait, flex, what's that person's

0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 3>name again? She just goes in a raw. We'd spent

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:45.440
<v Speaker 3>I would say, a total of like six hours with

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:48.880
<v Speaker 3>this one guy at Splendor who must not be named,

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:53.520
<v Speaker 3>And at one point she goes, wait, what's your name again, babes,

0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:56.520
<v Speaker 3>we're bordering on day three, what do you mean? And

0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 3>he's like, oh, my name's eh. She's like yeah, yeah,

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:03.920
<v Speaker 3>right right through me, he yells at someone. There were

0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 3>two people that were in this vicinity. One's called Ayisha,

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:12.400
<v Speaker 3>one's called Ash Aisha Babe Aisha.

0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Her name's Aysha.

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:17.880
<v Speaker 3>You just said ah Asia.

0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 4>She yells to Ash and who are you talking to?

0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Her?

0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 4>Who're talking talking to right now?

0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:26.880
<v Speaker 1>For me is just like us, And I'm gonna say

0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:27.200
<v Speaker 1>you guys.

0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:30.040
<v Speaker 2>The reason I said Asher was because she was sitting

0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.199
<v Speaker 2>next She was standing next to and she called Ash.

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 2>So it was Ash and Asia. I was trying to

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:39.720
<v Speaker 2>summon them both. Anyway, I've got some things to say.

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:40.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, go for it.

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 2>First and foremost, when did wishing wells become appropriate?

0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:44.160
<v Speaker 1>We get it.

0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 2>You want a holiday, but at the expense of everyone

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:49.360
<v Speaker 2>who's spending their time, and time is worth money to

0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.560
<v Speaker 2>come and watch you walk down the aisle and listen

0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:52.599
<v Speaker 2>to speeches.

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 1>I should be getting paid.

0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:55.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I don't know.

0:10:56.200 --> 0:11:00.560
<v Speaker 3>Wedding culture is really confusing because it differs drass clee

0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 3>per culture. In Guardian culture, for example, weddings are free

0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.400
<v Speaker 3>for all, Like you don't even have to be invited

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:07.959
<v Speaker 3>personally to go to someone's wedding.

0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:09.560
<v Speaker 1>You just rock iconic.

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:13.760
<v Speaker 3>Also, it is so customary for every single person who

0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.440
<v Speaker 3>touches down at your wedding to give money, and it's

0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 3>no gifts, keep your gifts ill you have to give

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:23.520
<v Speaker 3>money and make sure you're giving the yellows okay or

0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:28.240
<v Speaker 3>the greens. We're not giving twenty dollars. It's fifty minimum

0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:31.680
<v Speaker 3>and realistically it's two two fifty. We're going up and

0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:33.079
<v Speaker 3>up and up, and obviously if you know the family

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:37.000
<v Speaker 3>really well, you're adding extras. Okay, It's always been understood

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 3>that way, But then in Caucasian culture, I'm finding like

0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:45.160
<v Speaker 3>I didn't even know what a per head was until

0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 3>two years ago.

0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:46.839
<v Speaker 1>I was like, what's a per head?

0:11:47.760 --> 0:11:49.320
<v Speaker 3>I thought you just covered that and then we just

0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:51.439
<v Speaker 3>like give you this gift of money. So all this

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:53.360
<v Speaker 3>like politics around like how much is too much to

0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:56.400
<v Speaker 3>pay and whatever whatever whatever. This is a it's definitely

0:11:56.400 --> 0:12:01.000
<v Speaker 3>a race based conversation. But also I feel like the

0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:04.120
<v Speaker 3>way people look at it contradicts how they feel about it.

0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:06.719
<v Speaker 3>So this person's like, I've already spent so much on

0:12:06.760 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 3>this la la lah doesn't really count as an expense

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 3>if you want to be there like that, Like if

0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:13.600
<v Speaker 3>you're getting married through me, I'm not being like hmm,

0:12:14.080 --> 0:12:15.880
<v Speaker 3>to spend this much on flights and this much on

0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 3>this It's like, oh my god, we're celebrating for me.

0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:20.160
<v Speaker 3>It's through me, big day. I'm so stoked. I just

0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:22.200
<v Speaker 3>think it's part of the fun.

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 2>I get the vibe that you don't actually like this

0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:27.520
<v Speaker 2>friend that much. Yeah, say, but I get it. It's

0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.720
<v Speaker 2>like there's this Sex and the City episode where there's

0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:31.000
<v Speaker 2>a baby shower and they have to go to the

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:32.920
<v Speaker 2>baby showers and Samantha throws out, I don't have a

0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.679
<v Speaker 2>baby shower, and then the chicko's pregnant.

0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Comes and she's like, let me have this one thing.

0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:37.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Like, it is hard when you're not that interested in

0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:41.839
<v Speaker 2>life milestones and it all your friends are.

0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 3>But I think, to this person's point, looks like they

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:46.000
<v Speaker 3>want to be across these milestones.

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:47.080
<v Speaker 4>And I think what.

0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:49.160
<v Speaker 3>We've now realized is that there's a price of admission

0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 3>for all of this. Nobody necessarily is expecting the transaction

0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 3>to occur between being invited to the wedding and showing

0:12:57.840 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 3>up to the wedding, but there clearly is one.

0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:01.440
<v Speaker 4>Hence what I was saying before.

0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:04.839
<v Speaker 3>The more I hear about wedding culture generally, the more

0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm put off it because I just want to have

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 3>a cute party, like literally my perfect wedding. Me, twenty

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.839
<v Speaker 3>of the girlies right dressed up. Everyone's doing at least

0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.040
<v Speaker 3>two costume changes. I don't even care. Okay, there's a

0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 3>brunch look and a night look. All right, there's definitely

0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:26.800
<v Speaker 3>like luxury cars involved. It's probably destination. Everything is catered,

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:31.200
<v Speaker 3>everything is beautiful. Photo ops constantly, not with the iPhone. Sorry,

0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:33.560
<v Speaker 3>we've got someone over there on video, someone over there

0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:35.959
<v Speaker 3>on stills. Don't even worry about it. And we're getting feral.

0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:37.000
<v Speaker 4>That is it.

0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:40.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay, there's gonna be a cute half an hour for

0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:42.760
<v Speaker 3>the processions where I'm like, I love him so much

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:46.760
<v Speaker 3>and everyone's like, oh, tell that story when you guys

0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:49.240
<v Speaker 3>first started dating but you were dating someone else at

0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:53.680
<v Speaker 3>the same time. No, no, it's so embarrassing.

0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:55.200
<v Speaker 4>Okay, tell them, sell them.

0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.760
<v Speaker 2>You get like the stitch up best man, Like, literally,

0:13:59.040 --> 0:13:59.880
<v Speaker 2>she's a root.

0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:05.000
<v Speaker 4>I'll take that job like that all sounds fun and funny.

0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.600
<v Speaker 3>And then you start telling me that there's surcharges when

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:09.920
<v Speaker 3>people find out that you're having a wedding and the

0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:12.160
<v Speaker 3>people are spending thirty k on flowers, forty K on

0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:13.680
<v Speaker 3>the venue five K on a dress.

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:14.280
<v Speaker 4>It looks ugly.

0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:19.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh, your bridesmaid's dresses look ugly. Oh your groups look ugly?

0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:26.120
<v Speaker 3>You said destination or in Port Macquarie.

0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:30.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to say it him driving myself.

0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 4>I know what you're saying.

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:35.280
<v Speaker 3>Can these girls go a week without talking about the Kardashians?

0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:39.440
<v Speaker 3>Apparently not, because last week I read an article that

0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:42.600
<v Speaker 3>I thought was from the Onion but it was nothing.

0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:48.840
<v Speaker 3>Hits like that, doesn't it was real. The headline is

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.640
<v Speaker 3>skims Saved my life? And I'm thinking, is this one

0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 3>of these like body positivity angles where it's like before

0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.040
<v Speaker 3>shape where I felt like this after shape where I

0:14:57.040 --> 0:14:58.040
<v Speaker 3>feel beautiful?

0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:00.080
<v Speaker 4>But no, This TikTok is.

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Currently going viral after revealing this tragic story about how

0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 3>she was shot four times but because she was wearing

0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 3>skims at the time, it was acting like a tornique.

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:11.720
<v Speaker 4>Why are you laughing? Sorry?

0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:13.400
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible and.

0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:15.480
<v Speaker 3>It kept all her blood and stuff in and her

0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:17.600
<v Speaker 3>guts and she didn't bleed out.

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 1>How many times was she shot?

0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:22.760
<v Speaker 2>Four? H Wait? But like if it goes through the skims,

0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:24.840
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't it then be I don't know.

0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.280
<v Speaker 3>But basically the parent makes were like, we don't think

0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:30.240
<v Speaker 3>he would have survived if not for this shapewear.

0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 4>Which is just absurd.

0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:33.680
<v Speaker 3>But the thing that gets me the most is the

0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:36.240
<v Speaker 3>way that this girl started the video. So since here,

0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.360
<v Speaker 3>I just want to thank Kim Kardashian for saving my

0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:41.440
<v Speaker 3>life as a get off the baby because you know

0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 3>she's looking for a replacement pair.

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:47.320
<v Speaker 4>You already know she said the first one I soiled.

0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:52.720
<v Speaker 3>Then she ends it by saying call it Fate or Jesus,

0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:55.120
<v Speaker 3>but I'm gonna call it kim Nah.

0:15:56.080 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 2>That's that's that, Like Jesus is definitely quaking somewhere, and

0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:04.080
<v Speaker 2>she said what she said.

0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:07.360
