Speaker 1: Cut flex and rooms, flex and frooms, catch up podcastle
Speaker 1: and rooms. It's flex and it's rooms.
Speaker 2: We were just talking about how if we were toddlers,
Speaker 2: we would one hundred percent get in physical fights rules,
Speaker 2: but very easily again become comrades in the playground.
Speaker 3: But I also think we'd have a bit of like
Speaker 3: a mummy daughter relationship alternating. So sometimes you'd like brush
Speaker 3: my hair and then I would give you a hair cut,
Speaker 3: and then you and be like, why why are you
Speaker 3: girls cutting hair?
Speaker 1: But she asked me too.
Speaker 3: She looks really pretty.
Speaker 1: We're very tactile together. I would say, yeah, there's chemistry.
Speaker 3: There is chemistry. Yeah, wish people could see that more often.
Speaker 1: But I like that.
Speaker 3: It's a little sacred thing we have between us.
Speaker 1: Me too.
Speaker 3: Actually, I don't want to share. I realized the other day.
Speaker 3: I don't want to share, you know. I was saying
Speaker 3: that I don't like hang out in groups. I'm going
Speaker 3: to catch up with a friend on the weekend, and
Speaker 3: she said, and we always do like a monthly catch up.
Speaker 3: And she's very good at that. It's not me who's
Speaker 3: good at that, but she'll put it in the calendar.
Speaker 3: And this time she said something That really caught me. God,
Speaker 3: she said, should we invite people? You know, the more
Speaker 3: the merrier. I said, why in the hell would we
Speaker 3: do that? And then she quickly wrote, She's like, you're right,
Speaker 3: I don't want to share it either.
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't.
Speaker 3: What are you sucking about? Share? Why would I want
Speaker 3: to share? The food, the conversation, none of it, none
Speaker 3: of it. Remember one time we were doing we do
Speaker 3: these long lunches. We go to like Pop's Points somewhere
Speaker 3: boogie do a long lunch. We bring out the tarot.
Speaker 3: We're doing terra for each other. Some chit comes over
Speaker 3: and she's like, you guys to tar do you mind? No,
Speaker 3: we said, do you mind? And now she's looking at me.
Speaker 3: I'm looking at her, looking at the lady like you're
Speaker 3: interrupting and you're scaring the hose. So then we obviously
Speaker 3: did the polite We did the polite thing and said, oh,
Speaker 3: well no, when we're done, we'll definitely reach out to you.
Speaker 3: She said, well, I have to leave here at five.
Speaker 3: You're joking?
Speaker 1: Was it someone like saving it?
Speaker 3: I think I feel like she worked there, but maybe
Speaker 3: she owned the place. She was walking with a bit
Speaker 3: of comfort. She was taking loud phone call, so maybe
Speaker 3: I don't know what it was, but she's like, I
Speaker 3: got to leave at five, so look, okay, well if
Speaker 3: we're ready, like you can come back. And then we
Speaker 3: just avoided eye contact.
Speaker 1: Oh I mean ballsy, but yeah, here's a potty. You're
Speaker 1: listening to Flex and Rooms on kit every week I
Speaker 1: come to you with a love line. What is that
Speaker 1: you ask?
Speaker 2: It is a scenario that's been either sent in from
Speaker 2: a listener or it's come from our producer Brooks. She
Speaker 2: trows the internet and finds one, or perhaps this comes
Speaker 2: straight from her brain or maybe mine. I'll leave that
Speaker 2: for you to decide. We'd like to have a bit
Speaker 2: of mystery here on the Flex and Froom show. Let
Speaker 2: me launch straight into the story, and then we're gonna
Speaker 2: have to give our two cents, which is always very exciting.
Speaker 1: I begin I am twenty one and my boyfriend is
Speaker 1: twenty two. We are wanting to move in together. We're
Speaker 1: both moving up.
Speaker 2: From our parents' houses for the first time, or what
Speaker 2: a time that was. We've even been buying house things
Speaker 2: like kitchen appliances each month for the new place and
Speaker 2: have gone to a few inspections a one bedroom apartment
Speaker 2: in the inner city is looking pretty good.
Speaker 3: In a city.
Speaker 1: Yeah, big city life, big bucks. It's like the Sims
Speaker 1: City expansion pack. It's kind of vibe I'm getting.
Speaker 2: I came home last night from work to a message
Speaker 2: for my boyfriend saying that he has changed his mind
Speaker 2: about moving in with me and only wants to do
Speaker 2: it now if his best friend can move in with
Speaker 2: us too.
Speaker 3: Ha ha ha.
Speaker 1: That's when Allen of Coffins is.
Speaker 2: We get a on really well and normally wouldn't have
Speaker 2: an issue with it, but he's been known to blow
Speaker 2: his paycheck at the casino and he's getting kicked out
Speaker 2: of his current rental. There have been a few times
Speaker 2: when he's messaged my boyfriend to borrow money.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I know gambling can be a serious
Speaker 1: problem and totally want to be supportive. When I brought
Speaker 1: up my worries with my boyfriend, he said he's been
Speaker 1: his best friend since primary school and is standing by
Speaker 1: him whether that includes me or not. WHOA, that is
Speaker 1: a big, big, bloody, bloody call.
Speaker 2: I'm going to lead that to marinate. I'm not feeling
Speaker 2: good about it. Love, It's not the diagnosed the prognosis
Speaker 2: is not looking good. It's not looking up. I think
Speaker 2: if someone's been kicked out of a rental, that's the
Speaker 2: kind of stuff that I need to know. You're just
Speaker 2: coming into your rental. I see this happening. There's two
Speaker 2: terrible scenarios. Either AA he stops paying a rent or
Speaker 2: b he does something so catastrophic, so cataclysmic, that your
Speaker 2: rental history is forever tarnished by his behavior.
Speaker 3: It's hard enough to get a rental generally these days.
Speaker 3: You're not a great candidate for being twenty one or
Speaker 3: even twenty. And yeah, I just feel like it's such
Speaker 3: a terrible feeling to get your hopes up about something
Speaker 3: you've idealized it. You know, it's you and me, and
Speaker 3: we're moving in together with our beige Kmart toaster and
Speaker 3: our mint green Kmart kettle. But it's not happening anymore.
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry. This is the beginning of the end,
Speaker 3: not the end of your relationship, with the end of
Speaker 3: the dream. It's just not right.
Speaker 1: I think you should just debt it dead, the whole relationship.
Speaker 3: No, not the relationship, just dead, the fantasy of moving
Speaker 3: in together, because realistically, I don't want to take a
Speaker 3: boyfriend doesn't want to move in with you, But if
Speaker 3: he's given you the ultimatum without a discussion of Hey,
Speaker 3: so my best friends in this situation, I really want
Speaker 3: to help him out. I don't want to leave him,
Speaker 3: you know, down to the dumps. What do you think
Speaker 3: we can do? Can we organize something, can you sleep
Speaker 3: on the couch for a little bit, whatever, whatever? Whatever? No,
Speaker 3: it turned into him and I am moving in together
Speaker 3: and you got to deal with it. So I don't
Speaker 3: think there's I would assume there's time to negotiate, but
Speaker 3: it doesn't feel like you're he's in a negotiating mood.
Speaker 3: I would say, plan for a reality that doesn't involve
Speaker 3: living with your boyfriend's bum best friend.
Speaker 1: Obviously pending financial situations in.
Speaker 3: A city during the cause of living crisis. Maybe you
Speaker 3: got it like that, true? True.
Speaker 1: I will say I believe in holding off on the
Speaker 1: moving and with the partner real quick, because you can't
Speaker 1: go back from that.
Speaker 3: I yeah, I didn't want to bring that up. I didn't. Sorry,
Speaker 3: but I'm also a different camp. I don't live with
Speaker 3: anyone period. I just it's not great. But also I
Speaker 3: think you could, you'd be better off living with some
Speaker 3: like minded friends before you live with a partner at
Speaker 3: twenty one.
Speaker 2: Totally how fun you you know, I just love when
Speaker 2: I first moved in in my first share house, we'd
Speaker 2: be doing dinner parties. I was learning how to cool,
Speaker 2: I was hanging out. It's like you're in a never
Speaker 2: any sleepover if you find the right people. So you
Speaker 2: should just hate.
Speaker 1: Saying you should just enjoy it.
Speaker 3: But you know you wanted to say it.
Speaker 1: But I said, it's going to be great.
Speaker 3: Girl.
Speaker 1: Even if you guys do end.
Speaker 2: Up moving in with the best friend, it can all
Speaker 2: end in flames, and you can start off your new
Speaker 2: life as a bachelorette in a fantastic sharehouse.
Speaker 3: Let hivemn the best friend move over. You can come
Speaker 3: like the third housemate who's not on the least agreement
Speaker 3: raw living there permanently. Just dip into about that's a great.
Speaker 1: Idea, Kate, Flex and Frooms.
Speaker 3: You're listening to Flex and Frooms.
Speaker 1: What the frick?
Speaker 2: We have big thoughts and some big vibes as well.
Speaker 2: And I was on TikTok or rather I should say
Speaker 2: I'll come and say I produce.
Speaker 1: It was on TikTok. Shold me to talk about this thing.
Speaker 2: It is called the blonde hair Conspiracy. It's by a
Speaker 2: user by the name of kate Leannie.
Speaker 4: I went down this whole rabbit hole on the Internet
Speaker 4: where I saw a video of a girl saying that
Speaker 4: the worst insult you could tell a white girl is
Speaker 4: calling her a bottle blonde.
Speaker 3: And I was like, why does that matter? You know, like,
Speaker 3: I've done my.
Speaker 4: Hair a whole bajillion different colors. I don't care if
Speaker 4: you call me out on it. Obviously my hair naturally
Speaker 4: is not this color. But then I was like, maybe
Speaker 4: there's like a higher archue between blonde people, and like
Speaker 4: a girl on TikTok another girl was talking about that too,
Speaker 4: where like the lighter your blonde is like the cooler
Speaker 4: you are or whatever, like naturally, So then girls would
Speaker 4: like try to look naturally blonde and like claim their
Speaker 4: naturally blondes. So then I went on this rabbit hole
Speaker 4: and I was just looking at all these girls hair
Speaker 4: and like, again, I had white classmates when I was younger,
Speaker 4: and They're like, hair is naturally this like platinum, platinum blonde.
Speaker 4: But then like I found out, apparently that as you
Speaker 4: get older, your hair fades and it becomes a darker tone,
Speaker 4: like very rarely do you maintain the same platinum blonde
Speaker 4: level you would have as a child. So then when
Speaker 4: I was looking at the hair of these people, I
Speaker 4: noticed that, like all of them, even though I was
Speaker 4: looking at this like platinum blonde color just so pretty,
Speaker 4: they all had.
Speaker 1: Really really really dark roots.
Speaker 4: And I don't know, maybe all of your stylists are
Speaker 4: really good.
Speaker 1: I only just learned there's.
Speaker 4: Something called a root melt, which I apparently like unintentionally
Speaker 4: asked for from my stylists because I just wanted the
Speaker 4: blonde to blend really naturally into my natural hair color,
Speaker 4: so I just didn't have to go get touch ups
Speaker 4: that often because I'm lazy. But apparently it's like a
Speaker 4: really common thing among people with blonde hair. So then
Speaker 4: I was like, wait, how many people naturally are like
Speaker 4: blonde blonde? And how many people are blonde but it's
Speaker 4: actually just dyed and the natural hair color is a
Speaker 4: shade of brown because I feel like, actually, I feel
Speaker 4: like a lot a lot of blonde people are actually
Speaker 4: not genuinely blonde.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: So that right there is the blonde conspiracy theory, the
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory that they actually that there actually aren't that
Speaker 1: many blonde people in the world, and that a lot
Speaker 1: of the blondes are bond on the blondspiracy.
Speaker 3: Are you talking?
Speaker 1: That's what she said. That's what she said. Conspiracy theory. Well,
Speaker 1: let's just call it the theory.
Speaker 2: But I guess it is a conspiracy, you know, like
Speaker 2: there's a lot of blondes out there in inverted commas,
Speaker 2: a lot.
Speaker 3: Of liars, a lot of fliers.
Speaker 2: And I must say I do have personal experience in
Speaker 2: this realm as a reformed fake blonde.
Speaker 1: I was blond for fifteen years.
Speaker 3: I convinced not only a fake blonde, but a fake Swede.
Speaker 3: I never caught myself a sweet I don't know how
Speaker 3: I got into my head. Maybe I just there was
Speaker 3: too many context clues, and I said, I think I
Speaker 3: think this girl's Swedish.
Speaker 2: I just have too much Ikea furniture. No, I will say,
Speaker 2: I now have brown hair. However, in a lot of
Speaker 2: say for example, the cat marketing campaigns, I am blonde.
Speaker 2: I have a lot of thoughts about the bottle blonde hierarchy.
Speaker 2: It's a real thing that I've seen in my shape spoken.
Speaker 2: I'm freaking out the blonde hierarchy is real. Okay, I
Speaker 2: grew up as a brown hair bitch, brown hair since birth.
Speaker 3: Oh no, but there was a time in high school
Speaker 3: you were blonde, right, Oh yeah, you started your journey
Speaker 3: when so.
Speaker 2: My natural hair color has always been brown. I wasn't
Speaker 2: like a blonde baby. I came out of the womb
Speaker 2: with no hair. I probably didn't get hair until I
Speaker 2: was about two to three years old.
Speaker 1: Late bloom, wispy. Don't worry.
Speaker 2: I was hitting the different males stones, I was walking,
Speaker 2: I was talking. I was like doing poos as a
Speaker 2: joke on purpose. Oh funny, Yeah, big tricks, the big jokes.
Speaker 2: Will in the sound booth is thinking, yeah, that's that's
Speaker 2: a bit of her. I see the vision. I see
Speaker 2: the vision, and then yeah, I definitely always wanted to
Speaker 2: be blonde. I had a best friend in primary school
Speaker 2: who actually listens to the show. Her name is Stephanie,
Speaker 2: and Stephanie was super tan and had blonde hair, was
Speaker 2: really cool, like had a cool family anyway, So he
Speaker 2: was like obsessed with her, and she was my best friend.
Speaker 2: And yeah, so I always thought people with blonde hair
Speaker 2: are hotter. I had this hierarchy, and I think it's
Speaker 2: definitely obviously to do with the media.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: I wanted to be a newsreader and my favorite news reader,
Speaker 2: Sandra Sully, had blonde.
Speaker 1: Hair, Shelly Kraft.
Speaker 2: All your typical Australian presenders were blonde, and so it's
Speaker 2: surprising to me like now that I've got brown hair.
Speaker 2: It took me a long time for me to be
Speaker 2: able to accept the idea may being brown head, because
Speaker 2: in my mind, being blonde was being exceptional because it's rare. However,
Speaker 2: like hearing this TikTok, obviously it's so tied up with
Speaker 2: Eurocentric beauty standards and the high ruh.
Speaker 3: Just hearing this TikTok.
Speaker 1: No, of course I knew beforehand, She's.
Speaker 3: She said, of course I knew beforehand.
Speaker 1: I'm learning.
Speaker 3: I'm learning to love click three.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: But it's funny to me that people wouldn't like grasp
Speaker 2: that that, like, people with dark roots aren't blonde. I
Speaker 2: even had a conversation earlier with people here at cater
Speaker 2: and they're like, WHOA, your hair gets darker every single
Speaker 2: time I see you. I said, it's not just that, though,
Speaker 2: not from your experience. A lot of blonde people lie,
Speaker 2: A lot of blonde people are in denial about how
Speaker 2: blonde they actually are, in contrast to what we've imagined
Speaker 2: blonde to be. I've seen and overheard so many conversations.
Speaker 3: Of people who were clearly visibly maybe you're a very dark,
Speaker 3: dark blonde, but it's reading brown and most lighting. I'm
Speaker 3: not talking jet black, I'm talking a soft mousie. I'm
Speaker 3: talking a caramel. All of these things read brown to
Speaker 3: the average person who's not wrapped up in blonde politics.
Speaker 3: In the same way that a non black person doesn't
Speaker 3: really understand when I'm wearing a wig or when I'm
Speaker 3: not wearing a wig, or my braids are real when
Speaker 3: they're not real. It's exactly that. But I say it's
Speaker 3: a wig, it's not real blonde. On the other hand,
Speaker 3: even if it's fake, I'm a blonde. I'm a blonde.
Speaker 3: I'm a blonde. I'm a blonde. I'm a blonde. You
Speaker 3: say it so often that you truly believe it, and
Speaker 3: when those roots start coming in, it's not cooking for you.
Speaker 3: Just say it's time for it's time for my appointment.
Speaker 3: I got to touch up my blonde.
Speaker 1: They say, oh, I haven't had I haven't had highlights
Speaker 1: in like twelve months. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2: I must say, though, I think mousie Brown needs to
Speaker 2: have a rebrand because the term mousy brown is not
Speaker 2: attractive at all.
Speaker 3: I know like that.
Speaker 2: I know people who are mousie brown and like, oh,
Speaker 2: my hair's mousey. It's the worst thing ever say.
Speaker 1: I think it's cute. It's a humble color and it
Speaker 1: looks cute.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's a humble, modest it's a modest colour forgettable.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 2: I must say, if you're a bottle blonde like I
Speaker 2: was for fifteen years, once you feel up to it,
Speaker 2: I think graduating back to your natural color is a
Speaker 2: humbling experience and one that you know once you hit
Speaker 2: the ceiling and you can do that, it really means
Speaker 2: you've done a lot of personal growth.
Speaker 3: Would you have done if your hair wasn't breaking?
Speaker 1: Probably not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my hair broke off. This is interesting. So it's
Speaker 3: just coming from the angle of self. Laugh and when
Speaker 3: you two reach this at the point.
Speaker 1: Of okay, I was forced. I had it in my hand,
Speaker 1: you dressing it, flex and rooms on.
Speaker 3: Kait. I do like hearing any anecdotes. I'm a quote girly,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, just because you know, there's
Speaker 3: so much chit chat coming from me, coming from rooms,
Speaker 3: coming from the world, but not all of it. It's good.
Speaker 3: So when someone yourself, when someone it's an observation. So
Speaker 3: when someone has lived enough and done enough great things
Speaker 3: so they can distill that into a nugget or three,
Speaker 3: I'm always ready to tune in. This is from j
Speaker 3: Cole mister Platinum, no features himself.
Speaker 5: I think there's two key ingredients, maybe three, but one
Speaker 5: is see yourself as high as you possibly can see yourself. Right,
Speaker 5: So someone wants to be in the NBA, like they
Speaker 5: want to be an NBA but to me, that's not enough.
Speaker 5: There's a wide range of NBA players, Right, There's an
Speaker 5: NBA player that never saw the floor. You know, he
Speaker 5: sat at the end of the bench his whole career
Speaker 5: and they never re upped this contract and then he
Speaker 5: had to go fight in the G League and boom
Speaker 5: boom he was in the NBA. Lebron James is in
Speaker 5: the NBA. Who do you see yourself as? And there's
Speaker 5: no right or wrong answer. Clarify and define your vision
Speaker 5: for yourself in the highest possible way that you could
Speaker 5: see it and see yourself as high as you possible can, right,
Speaker 5: That's your first job is to see it as high
Speaker 5: as you can see it, be delusional either to the
Speaker 5: point where to where your mind the rate at the
Speaker 5: apex of which your mind believes as possible, maybe pushed
Speaker 5: past that even a little bit, and define it. And
Speaker 5: then number two is like believe it, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean, Like like see it all the time and
Speaker 5: believe it and whatever you got to do to protect
Speaker 5: that belief. My version of protecting that belief was I
Speaker 5: wasn't sharing this or you know, I wasn't telling my mom.
Speaker 5: She knew I rap, she knew I did music, and
Speaker 5: to her somebody, I'm not even gonna give my own
Speaker 5: mother the chance to try to bring me back down
Speaker 5: to reality. It's not gonna happen, you know what I mean,
Speaker 5: Like not gonna happen. So number one, dream is high
Speaker 5: as you possibly can see yourself, not even dream, see
Speaker 5: yourself as high as you possibly can. Define that. Don't
Speaker 5: just say I want to do such and such, because
Speaker 5: if you mess around and get such and such, you're
Speaker 5: gonna be mad that you didn't think about higher. There's
Speaker 5: a lot of people that do that they're like, man,
Speaker 5: why didn't I think about being this instead of just this?
Speaker 5: Because at the time you thought just this was it.
Speaker 5: But due to do the thought work and see where
Speaker 5: you really want to be too, believe that it's possible,
Speaker 5: and protect that belief. And then three is work towards it.
Speaker 5: Don't You have to do the work and because you
Speaker 5: love it. It's not always gonna feel like work. But
Speaker 5: sometimes it is.
Speaker 1: Nothing like that boom.
Speaker 3: You love that sound, but I hate it every time.
Speaker 3: I used to try and crop it off videos, but
Speaker 3: then it has the person's I just I.
Speaker 1: Love it, boom troom.
Speaker 2: It's just even if it's like especially when it's not
Speaker 2: a funny video, it makes it ten min times funny.
Speaker 3: That advice was really good because it's true. It's all there.
Speaker 3: I don't think everyone will resonate to that, because thinking
Speaker 3: and dreaming about being your best self and then a
Speaker 3: little bit higher people are trying to eat babe. But
Speaker 3: I think it's a nice way to learn how to
Speaker 3: back yourself in practice and in a way that's just
Speaker 3: for you, not for the imaginary observer. I guess.
Speaker 2: So I will say this parent settling like the idea
Speaker 2: that you I think like if you're the kind of
Speaker 2: person it's like, oh I did this, Like I settled
Speaker 2: for being the NBA player rather than being Lebron James.
Speaker 2: Like sometimes maybe you're never going to be happy. Maybe
Speaker 2: if you're a Lebron James, you issue with someone else.
Speaker 2: So just like I think, also it's good to be
Speaker 2: mindful of like, yes, I can imagine myself being someone
Speaker 2: who wins an oscar, but at what costs? Like, I
Speaker 2: think it's also important, Like it's totally good to have
Speaker 2: a lofty dream, and I like the idea of not
Speaker 2: telling anyone but writing it down.
Speaker 1: So it's for yourself.
Speaker 2: But also there's like real power in having those dreams
Speaker 2: and then refocusing them when they stop working for you,
Speaker 2: because I think sometimes you can just hold onto these
Speaker 2: dreams because you've, like because you've like pictured them for
Speaker 2: so long that not achieving them feels like some sort
Speaker 2: of failure. But it's also nice to rewire every.
Speaker 1: Now and again.
Speaker 2: So I would supplement that by doing a by yearly
Speaker 2: check in. If we are going along the route of
Speaker 2: actually forging ahead, do you buy buy yearly check in?
Speaker 1: And then I'm I'm pledging with this JOKEL.
Speaker 3: Or be mediocre.
Speaker 1: This is flex and frooms.
Speaker 3: I have a confession you make. I want to learn
Speaker 3: how to play Dungeons and jang Gains Dungeons and Dragons.
Speaker 3: There's just something about it, well, not just the game
Speaker 3: in particular, but the older I get, the more I
Speaker 3: realize that not only do we need hobbies that are
Speaker 3: good for our mind, hobbies that are good for our bodies,
Speaker 3: hobbies that are good for our social lives. Like most
Speaker 3: you know, mid to late twenty year olds, your social
Speaker 3: life kind of orients around the same couple of things.
Speaker 3: You go to bars, maybe picnics, you do dinner parties.
Speaker 3: Call it's kind of like consumption based. But I thought,
Speaker 3: what kind of hobbies do I have that are social
Speaker 3: that also tick that box of being entertaining and kind
Speaker 3: of educational but also transformative. Okay, do you know when
Speaker 3: you do something new with a friend, Let's say you
Speaker 3: take a pottery class, like you're really good at that,
Speaker 3: Like that's cool, You go back and forth. That's what
Speaker 3: I think Dungeons and Dragons might do for my life.
Speaker 3: Because for those of you who don't really get it,
Speaker 3: it's a like a lie have role playing games, so
Speaker 3: you're basically doing improv live with all of your friends
Speaker 3: based on a character that you've created and a character
Speaker 3: that they've created, a character that they've created. Right, So
Speaker 3: you know, a couple of weeks ago we spoke about
Speaker 3: not a couple of weeks ago, maybe last year at
Speaker 3: this point, we spoke about that alignment test. Are you chaotic? Neutral?
Speaker 3: Chaotic good that comes from dungeons and dragons? So you
Speaker 3: do you little test, and you're to sign that characteristic
Speaker 3: to your character. So you sorry, you to sign that
Speaker 3: alignment to your character. So when you're improving the decisions
Speaker 3: your character is making, it's with that alignment in mind.
Speaker 1: You get parameters right, right, And.
Speaker 3: Then you have this I think it's called a game master,
Speaker 3: who is essentially helping the story move along. So while
Speaker 3: our improve and say and then I threw a bottle
Speaker 3: behind rooms's head to scare her, game master might say,
Speaker 3: what is that? The lights have gone off? Cater is
Speaker 3: flooding as we speak. There is two enemy elf links come.
Speaker 1: Up the lifts.
Speaker 3: What are we gonna do?
Speaker 1: It's two TikTok girls in the ears?
Speaker 3: Ma, what are we gonna do? What are we gonna do?
Speaker 3: I feel like it'd be like gossiping, but with the
Speaker 3: extra layer of fantasy. I just feel like it would
Speaker 3: be so fun.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen you this animated in weeks.
Speaker 3: You know it is what it is. I'm enthusiastic about
Speaker 3: fighting things that make me feel enthusiastic and then sharing
Speaker 3: them because I have a lot of things that I
Speaker 3: like doing alone, because I think it's quite commonplace to
Speaker 3: shit on people's things, like yuck people's yums. So if
Speaker 3: I share a thing with you when you don't get it,
Speaker 3: then you'd be like that's silly or that's really dumb,
Speaker 3: and that becomes quite boring because people always yucking my um.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, okay, well, I don't want to play
Speaker 3: with you anyway, but I do want to play with
Speaker 3: people because it's fun to share fun things. So don't
Speaker 3: leave expressions of interest in the comments. I don't want
Speaker 3: to play with strangers.
Speaker 1: In fact, close the conversation purely like and share and subscribe.
Speaker 3: But I am looking for again master who is going
Speaker 3: to curate these games, So I don't know. I'm hoping
Speaker 3: someone in my friendship network exists and it's like, Okay,
Speaker 3: we're going to play this game, but we're gonna do
Speaker 3: it because I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna be an elflin. Yeah, I was on an excuse
Speaker 1: to wear those years.
Speaker 3: You got a little do the reveal, show us, show
Speaker 3: us there it is?
Speaker 1: What species is she.
Speaker 3: In? Scenes? Savage? That's fair blame Becky for the edit,
Speaker 3: but I think it'd be really enjoyable. But part of
Speaker 3: me thinks that the experience of playing Dungeons and Dragons
Speaker 3: is going to feel a lot like karaoke. To me,
Speaker 3: my issue with karaoke is whenever I've been, and it's
Speaker 3: not often, there are two types of people, those who
Speaker 3: take it too seriously and those who don't take it
Speaker 3: seriously enough. So the ones who don't take it seriously
Speaker 3: enough are getting on the phone, getting on the phone,
Speaker 3: getting on the mic, and they're not really singing in
Speaker 3: time or singing off bat or getting the lyrics wrong,
Speaker 3: or trying to make it a comedy show, and it's
Speaker 3: like you're taking up space and you're being really loud
Speaker 3: and once it take it too seriously? Are you? Christina Aguilera, MA,
Speaker 3: I'm freaking if you can really sing past the mic?
Speaker 3: Past the mic. We didn't come here for an imprompt
Speaker 3: you intimate performance, so similar to dungeons and dragons. I
Speaker 3: don't want real actors fall back fall back, but I
Speaker 3: don't want someone who's taking the piers and not listening
Speaker 3: and not furthering the story along. So I don't get it.
Speaker 1: I think you need to get in with an already
Speaker 1: made group.
Speaker 3: I don't want to be the newbie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be nice for you, a little humbling experience.
Speaker 3: I don't need to be humbled, need to be platformed
Speaker 3: and elevated and validated.
