The fake problems podcast.
Another day.
Another day in the life.
So what you got for a recap there.
All right, got a quick one.
All right.
A few episodes ago, we debated.
Well, not really.
We were on the same side, I think.
But the Bradley Cooper Jew face.
OK.
Yeah, in the movies.
Yeah.
I think we both started being like, yeah, it's fine.
And then the more we talked about it, we're like,
it's actually kind of fucked up.
Yeah.
And then I looked into it a little bit.
Apparently Leonard Bernstein, the guy who was about his children
heavily defended Bradley Cooper for doing the nose.
And they're like, our dad had a huge nose.
I get it.
That's so that that kind of makes me be like, yeah, it's fine.
That definitely, yeah, for sure.
If his family's going to giant schnauz, leave it alone.
Now, I'm on this side.
He was like Bradley Cooper was like super engaged with them
the whole time throughout making the movie.
Oh, that's nice.
And yeah, so he's all good.
OK, he's cleared.
He's cleared.
I don't think he was really under fire that.
No, no.
It was just some super woke, whatever.
Not to say all woke shit's bad.
But the ones that go so far as the point
where it stops making logical sense,
it was in that category of he's doing Jew face, which, yeah.
Also Bradley Cooper also doesn't seem like a person
who would do that concern his acting career.
Like with like choice of a really racist thing to do in a movie.
Yeah, I definitely thought it was weird when I found
he made the movie.
I was like, why did he choose to do that?
But he had all the power to make his nose huge.
That makes it weirder.
But yeah, I don't I think he was totally, it was totally
an OK thing to do.
And I wonder though, do you think people will hear that
and still take the side of like, no, that's still messed up?
Yeah, for sure.
Is there any validity to that?
I don't think so.
I mean, what would be the argument against that being like,
well, it's representative of all Jewish people
and you're making him a caricature.
But if that's, but if his, but if his,
and his, Blaine's is reasoning and it's like, no,
this isn't just a caricature of a Jew.
Sure.
It's this guy.
Yeah.
And his children have been like, no, our dad had a big nose.
I don't think, I mean, there's going to be people who still
take the crazy stance on that one.
There's always will.
And the kids were also, they're all in like their 60s.
So they're older people.
But like, they were all like upset about all the backlash
he got from it.
They said that was hurtful to them.
Which is just purely the opposite of,
due to a lot of that stuff happens that way.
Where the people, this is going to sound racist.
Good preference.
Yeah, here we go.
You know, you ever seen these videos of like,
like cultural appropriation is a weird thing, I think,
where like people will wear culture or will quote,
like say someone wears a kimono or something like that.
And people will be like, you can't wear that.
That's their culture.
You're taking their culture.
But then like, you go ask a Japanese person,
they'd be like, that's awesome.
You represent our culture.
Same like, it wasn't a guy who would do that all the time.
Yeah, he would go to college campuses dressed in like,
Mexican attire or Japanese attire,
and then go to the country.
And they'd be like, this is awesome.
It's like, I love your hat.
Yeah, it has a somewhere on it.
So it's like, I feel like, I don't even know what the point
I was making, but it connects to this Jew-faced thing,
not in that way.
But if you like a culture, is it racist to represent it
through like their attire?
It seems kind of crazy.
Obviously, like, black faces fucked up.
But like, it's the other way, isn't it?
Well, not black face.
But like, specifically black face.
Isn't it kind of honoring it in a way if you're like,
this is awesome?
That's why this sombrero looks awesome.
Yeah, but like, we've gone to this far extent.
We're now it's racist to do that.
Yeah, I think, maybe it's a fine line of like,
honoring, honoring's not, doesn't feel like the right way.
It feels too extreme, but like, it feels crazy.
Drawing attention to it in a good way and mocking it.
I think there's a fine line between there.
Sure.
Yeah, I mean, if you're going out there
and like doing racial stereotypes in the attire,
that's different.
But if you're like, I want to wear this,
this looks awesome.
And someone's like, that's culture appropriation.
I'm like, come on.
Yeah.
So we're just all supposed to only stick to it.
Or, isn't it more racist to be like,
stick to your own culture?
I know. Yeah.
It's just like, oh my god, I can't touch some brero.
Yeah, that's insane.
It's, I don't know.
We're talking about obviously.
We do talk about this a lot, but yeah, it just feels like,
I've wanted some brero for Halloween the past five years.
So maybe I'm biased.
I can't do it.
But it's a weird, I've just seen it more and more
and maybe it's just the internet and it's not legitimate.
But it seems like there's a lot of,
quote unquote, cancel weird stuff about like,
this guy wore something and now he's racist.
Like, I don't think that, I don't know.
Anyway, this is a tangent of going off due face,
but Solid Recap to know that Bradley Cooper's in the clear.
Yeah.
He's been approved by our podcast and we're,
and that also makes sense.
Like, I can't imagine his kids being super offended by that.
Well, maybe, if he didn't have a big nose,
and he was Jewish, yeah.
It would be, listen, if the guy didn't have a big nose
and he was Jewish and Bradley Cooper made the guy,
I have a huge nose.
That would be pretty fucked up.
That'd be like, you're doing the character version.
That'd be like intentionally fucked up.
That's why I can see the kids being like,
yo dude, fucking chill.
Yeah.
So there's a way in that happens and makes it racist.
It didn't happen at all.
Like that's also just, have you seen him in costume
for that movie?
I've only seen a snapshot of like, face.
It is kind of shocking.
Just because I know what Bradley Cooper looks like,
and it's just so obvious his nose is enlarged.
I hear you.
But yeah, I think he's good.
So anyway, good guy.
Yeah, good recap though.
Totally forgot about that one.
Now we get to the meat of this podcast.
Oh, get him to it.
The quarter zip on a piece of clothing.
And for the audience, I'm talking about,
when you put on like, kind of like an overshoot,
typically like a pullover they're on,
like a long sleeve pullover,
they'll have a zipper that goes from your neck
of the collar down to like maybe center of your chest
a little bit above sometimes.
What is the point of that thing?
There's, it's functionally, I can't think of a purpose.
It makes it easier to take off.
You can argue that if it didn't exist there,
it would be easier to take off.
I feel like you, so it would,
I think of like a sweater with like a collar kind of.
Yeah.
If, so I guess it would just be a normal sweater.
If it didn't have that.
Yeah.
But I feel like those things zip up like real tight
around your neck.
That's actually a good point.
Cause I think without the zipper,
you can't have the collar.
Also, and more importantly,
I think it kind of just looks cool.
I guess, but like just like that half zip look,
they kind of just said like,
fuck it to the rest of the zipper.
Yeah, like you're gonna just wear it somewhere in this range.
So we're just gonna make it like that.
It just feels, I think about zippers.
And how they,
at all the time.
And so, but like a zipper in its own right
seems to always have had a function.
Like it's doing something to remove or attach something
and it was made for that purpose.
You've now added this thing to where it is no longer
removing or putting something on.
It's closing and opening a space that seems unnecessary.
In my opinion,
yeah,
this is a hill I might die on about.
I think part of this fashion,
it's gotta be.
Fashion allows previously functional things to just be,
like the rules go out the window.
Yes, I just have to say,
I never know where the rights,
but whenever I'm wearing one,
I don't know where the rights bottom put.
Is it that's way?
It's full up looks weird, down low looks weird,
because anything is floppy.
Just gotta find that balance.
Oh man.
Maybe this is just the truth of it.
I need to find the balance of quarters hips.
Halfway through the quarters it.
About, yeah, about half so that would be like
three quarters of the quarters it.
Yeah.
Well, you've convinced me.
I have a bunch of them at home.
I never wear them for this purpose.
So it's, I could be a change man.
I don't think I have any actually.
Really?
I always get them from like companies.
Like, yeah, you want some more fucking stupid clothing?
It's like a little logo on it.
Yep.
And then I have, so pretty much everyone's just like,
you're a company bitch and you look stupid.
That was a hard day.
Yeah.
And there's no function to your zibroom.
But anyway, maybe I could change my mind.
Dude, Pat Pee, people saying 100%.
We went over this last time.
How many times have I put this on this fucking list?
How many problems can be solved by putting your shoes,
putting yourself in the shoes of someone else?
If that, if at some point in time,
we can give that ability to like technology to do to people,
we probably solve.
Oh, you mean literally, like if you could transport
to some of the spots.
Yeah, like you maybe like, you have some VR set up
where you literally live the life of this person
who's experiencing something.
It would do, empathy is the key.
Yeah.
Cause that's like the reason you can be mean to people
most of the time is because you only see it
from your lens.
You're not experiencing what they're experiencing.
If you were suddenly experiencing that,
you'd be like, oh shit, that sucked.
I understand.
And then I don't know.
But.
It's a, it's probably not, this is not a new concept,
but you could have people just record their days
and then just turn that VR for someone else to walk through.
And then we could have that like,
dude, look at what happened to me today.
Zaps you into their body.
And then you just experience it.
I wonder though if like we would have to have something
that makes you feel like you're not in the simulation.
Cause if you're like, hey, I had a shitty day
and like my boss yelled at me, but you put me there.
I know it's a simulation.
So I'm like, yeah, fuck you.
It just feels like.
And you don't have all the precursor feelings
and emotions that that person has leading up to it.
You essentially have to have the layers
of this person's experience melted into you
to understand what they're feeling.
But I mean, that would be a step.
Like, yeah, if you could just watch a recording even.
Just everyone had body cams all the time.
I swear they were making some simulation like that
where you would experience how it is to be like
in a place and experiencing racism.
Like you're a black.
I heard about Facebook's doing that.
Yeah, we're like, you're a black person
to like Alabama in 1910 or something shit.
Yeah, and like that'd be nuts.
But also like, is that real?
Is that coming out?
I've heard of it.
I don't know what the state of it is.
But also if you listen.
If you know what it is going into it,
it's gotta make it just ridiculous.
Like if someone gave me that technology,
you want to know what's like to be a slave.
I'd be like, not written like this.
Yeah, just no physical pain or like.
Right.
It's like you're just a whipped.
No.
Yeah, maybe it's so, I don't know.
They got to have something that makes you like,
not know it's a simulation or it's so real
you forget it is.
Otherwise, it's like, yeah, this is bad.
But like it's as bad as reading a history book, right?
Or like no, maybe not.
It'd probably be worse.
I think it's a step, but yeah,
it's not even close to the real thing.
Yeah, so it could be a tool is what I'm saying.
It could, I feel like I could help a lot of people.
And also if we could somehow,
it would be easier to use as terrible as it is
unlike people who've been put in prison.
Like, hey, you can listen to your sentence
if you do like a hundred sessions of this experience.
Oh, you know, or like you, whoever you hurt,
it, or you're like, say you,
well, that could be like a corrective.
Yeah.
And like you just, you just get empathy,
just burn to your fucking soul in the prison system.
I'm here to change the word.
I'm running for office.
I heard, I heard on some podcast.
Some guy was talking about like if you could just
put someone in a simulation to the point
where they experience time differently.
Dude, I was talking about this.
Oh, fuck.
We're friend about this.
It's been a while since we said his name.
Fuck.
And you could literally just serve like a life sentence
in five minutes or something.
Dude, and then you're just having your life back.
We've had the same, I had this conversation
with the person I just said literally a couple weeks ago.
But how it's, because the thing is,
I don't know like that person could still be fucked up.
That's what we were saying.
And like could you say someone, say they're a serial killer
and they get like 28 life sentences consecutively
like they do with these serial killers.
And like you put a person in that
and they live out 700 years or whatever.
It would probably break your brain.
Donate.
Yeah.
To experience 700 years in prison would probably break you.
For sure.
Or have a like solitary confinement.
Yeah, like what do you want to go?
I don't know.
Would you want to go back?
Dude, that would like become your religion.
It would almost, it would feel not real.
If you were in that simulation for 700 years,
you're like, yeah, there's just a hope of like an afterlife
where I don't know where I don't know
and get back to what I was.
Yeah, I don't know where your brain goes.
That long in the same place doing the same thing.
I don't know if you bleed into it or you literally just like
become detached from the whole situation.
Yeah, but I don't know.
It'd be weird knowing that it's not real.
For 700 years.
I would say, dude, my hypothesis,
if you're doing it long enough, you'd start to forget.
Yeah, that's because yeah, I think it would start to flip.
Like your previous life would feel more of a myth.
Yes.
It would have to.
And like spiritual almost.
Especially if your life before was less time.
If you live 30 years and you've experienced 200 years in this life,
you're like, oh, this is life.
But then what they like put characters in your jail too?
I'd be like, it would depend on the sentence.
I'd be like, interact with you.
Yeah, dude.
I feel like.
So don't age for seven on your age.
If you killed like a family, you'd probably get like,
no people to interact with.
If it was like a milder crime, you get like friends.
I'm telling you, technology is gonna be cool.
That's all pretty theoretical at this point, right?
Can you actually do that to the brain?
Like make it, think it experiences time faster.
Not to that degree.
There's probably like small gaps you can create,
but you couldn't like make someone experience it like even years.
No, just no fucking way.
Not now.
But through the first person got neurolink installed.
You see that?
How's that going?
I don't know.
They killed thousands of chimpanzees before this.
I know.
Try it out.
They feel like their brain's gonna get fried.
Dude, it's just such a, who's the first person?
Where do they plant it in?
It's like, is there actually in your head?
Yeah, you ever seem like a cochlear implant for people?
Yeah, yeah.
It's like it goes up the side of your head
and it's kind of like implanted there.
So it looked like that from the diagram I saw.
But who's this person?
Someone had to be the first, I guess.
The first thing I thought was like,
is this like someone who's about to die, like terminal ill.
Oh yeah.
I would not, I would do risk that.
It's all for getting like a web browser in your head right now.
Like that's what you're able to do with it.
Yeah, yeah, is the consumption of information
actually faster though?
Is that the whole point?
So you don't like, you don't have to like read anymore.
Oh no, I don't think it's that.
I think it's literally, or I guess you don't have to type
with your fingers.
You can think and search something.
Yeah, which, but then you're still at the mercy
of your ability to comprehend stuff.
Like it's not, all you're doing is giving your head
the ability to like pull up Google.
I think so it's, I think it's a quicker output,
same input of information.
Yeah, I mean, but it's like what's the difference
between me pulling something up on my phone,
me pulling up in my head?
The time it takes to type it out versus just think about it.
It's like what is it?
That's so now worth it.
That's like the payoff to get something
surgically implanted in your head.
Yeah, that might just fuck you up.
Yeah, and then if you want to get it out,
you have to get surgery.
Like you can get it out.
Oh, I guess that's a good question.
I just figured you could.
There's no way you can just go back to normal after that.
I don't know, man, because people can get cochlear implants
removed.
They're probably, they're tapping into like your lizard brain,
not like your prefrontal cortex.
The stuff that runs your emotions and your feelings
and they're plugging stuff that's like primal,
just like they do with the sense is kind of level.
So they're probably plugging into like your
occipital lobe, they're like, so your vision can now
see browsers and do that stuff.
Sounds horrible.
Yeah, I already, there's too many screens already.
No, no, you're now, you just permanently.
You can never escape.
And what if like, what if it malfunction,
like even as minor malfunction,
where it just starts pointing up random browsers.
And now you're, what is terrible?
If they start putting ads into it.
Oh my God.
I can't watch an ad and you can't look away.
Oh, there's your eyes, it's still there.
I'd blow my fucking brains out.
It sounds so bad.
We should follow this guy.
Yeah, I think that's worthy recap story for sure.
Let's see, seen negative emotions in someone
who is nauseously optimistic.
So this one sticks out to me a lot.
Sounds like a rooted in a peave.
For sure, I was dating someone I won't specify when
but because it'll give away context to all of our listeners
who was like, they're a very optimistic person
about sometimes not like just be sad about it.
You know when people are just like,
yeah, we can just, I don't know,
like it's okay to be pissed off at something.
In my, yeah.
For me, it's kind of a love language
when we're like bitching about something together.
Like, God, it fucking sucks.
That's how you bond.
That's what I'm saying.
And so this person I was dating,
in the beginning it was nice because like,
oh, this person just has a different look on everything.
And then three months in, I'm like,
it's annoying to like something's bad
and they're like, well, they'll get it next time.
I'm like, no, listen, it's bad.
Just admit it's bad.
I mean, that's a lack of empathy right there.
If you're feeling one way and they're like,
oh, it'll be okay.
It feels like they are, here's the thing.
Here's the biggest thing I have all of it.
I know that they feel that this thing also sucks
and they're like, lying to me in this illusion of,
you know what?
Themselves maybe too.
I think they know it because there was a couple times
in this relationship where the negativity came through
and I was like, that's the stuff I want.
Where they're like, God fucking dammit.
I was like, do that more.
I hate the, everything's always good.
It's always good.
Exactly.
And I've met, I don't know,
I handful of people who do this,
but it's just like, actually, really enough.
So, I should probably shouldn't talk about that.
Now I won't talk about that.
I'll tell you about afterwards.
Not on the podcast, but I don't know.
It's, I imagine that has to just be like,
boiling to the surface.
Like if they just keep repressing it like that.
It explodes.
Yeah.
And there was probably so much explosion
that didn't happen in front of me too.
Like I probably got like a little crack.
Oh, maybe they lose their shit when they're by themselves.
Dude.
Yeah, it feels,
especially when you're dating someone.
It feels weird to not know them on,
at least that level,
you're like, you're covering up
on the level of like, this is kind of bad.
When you're dating someone, you know what's gonna set them off.
That's like part of intimacy.
But it's, for sure.
Yeah.
And then people, it's almost, I don't know,
maybe it's just a projection of like,
it makes me feel like they think I'm stupid.
Like you're, you're,
your, your, your feelings aren't validated.
I don't even, it's more like you say something bad happens to you.
And you're like, huh?
Well, it'll be okay next time.
Like I know you're lying to me.
I know you're trying to cover it.
And, Grand, you do it once or twice.
I'm like, dude, I get you just want to like move past it.
You want to address it.
But after doing it every time something bad happens,
I'm like, dude, I, you can't be happy like this.
There's no way.
Stop, and you're not even doing a good job.
The acting is not, it's not Daniel Day Lewis.
You can see through it too.
Exactly.
And it's like, what are we doing here?
It led to somewhat of the end of the relationship.
Cause it's like, I don't know.
I just don't, I don't like that.
I like being more realistic about things.
Yeah.
I like being happy when happy things happen.
That, that to me strikes me as like guarded in,
Yeah.
And maybe like a healthy way, not,
sorry, not healthy, but like projecting it in a healthy way.
Right.
It's displacement of feeling, which is,
they call it sublimation.
Like that's supposed to technical term and psychology is that,
like you take a bad thing and you turn into a good thing,
but it's, I don't know, it's weird.
It's weird to see an adults.
Like when, if you was childlike, when we're like,
like everything's okay, which, great.
Yes, everything is okay.
But when something bad happens,
let's just be adults to be like, that was fucking shitty.
This reminds me of when I saw that guy get his car stolen
and then some dude just walks up to,
this guy was freaking out.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's freaking out about his car installed, understandable.
And this dude just walks up to me,
he's like, hey dude, you're still alive.
It's like, no, let him be pissed off.
It's got his every right to be mad.
In case stranger, ridiculous.
Nothing wants, it makes me angry.
If someone does that to somebody, it's terrible.
Also, haven't you heard like swearing is sometimes good
to just let the release out?
Sure, yeah, in any form it comes.
You ever have, dude, you ever be,
you've been told to wash your language
by an older person when you're like,
in your mid to late 20s.
I don't know, actually.
I've had it happen and I've been like, what?
What do you mean?
Go fuck yourself.
I'm like, what was the dynamic?
Like a coworker, a friend?
No, no, no, no, no.
Like, I think last time was a sporting event.
We're like, yeah, go fight.
That's bullshit.
But even as an adult, someone's saying, watch your language.
If there's children, I get it.
If there's children or if you're like in an argument,
then it's, and it's one thing.
Yeah, that starts swearing, actually.
It's like, okay, dude, calm down.
Sure.
Yeah, I can see that.
No, be out, but cheer not a sports game.
Or like, if I'm like, oh, fuck,
in the middle of something, it's like, watch your language.
It's just, it's so weird.
Yeah, that's ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
Who do they think they are?
To be like, listen, you gotta watch your,
like that's something you tell like a kid in school,
like a young child.
It's just, also swear words.
It's weird that we've just deemed these ones are bad.
I know, I'm bad.
They're just, it's literally a sound coming out
of our fucking mouth.
Yeah, don't even know.
It's hit so hard.
Is that why they're bad?
No, because we've just given that context to them.
Yeah.
Like, there's been,
there's a whole Nick Cage special on swear words.
Have you seen that?
Nick Cage special.
It's on Netflix.
It's Nicholas Cage talking about the origin of swear words.
Oh, I remember vaguely seen on the ads for it.
It's pre-entertaining.
Yeah.
I don't remember any of it, but it's,
there's just words.
It's a weird concept.
What's your take on letting your kids swear?
I guess you don't have kids, but.
That would age just.
Just at the age of a person.
If they start swearing like that, let it rip.
Probably keep it locked down until like,
middle school when I know it's inevitable.
Yeah, that feels fake.
How do you think?
I feel like I'd be like,
there are words you can say them,
but not, you know.
Not what some words make people mad.
Yeah, exactly.
And if we're in like, you know, we're hate,
if it's just family, funny,
but don't say it with me.
Don't use it to hurt someone.
I feel like that's the biggest one.
But also like if we're around
other people than family, probably don't be yelling swears.
And then you know, once you're out of the house,
you knew where the fuck you want.
Like if grandparents are over, I don't want my kid be like,
yeah, fuck yeah, grandma, or maybe actually that's fine.
That's weird.
It depends on the grandma as well.
Yeah, do you think we'll age out of people
being offended by swear words?
Cause I guess you kind of, in that example,
you're thinking of the older generation
not liking swear words.
Yeah, it's weird cause there's always been swear words,
but then there's always like,
there's generations of people who are like,
want to be proper.
Cause swear words have been,
I mean, you watch the Nick Cage thing.
They have to be as old as time.
There's always been like swear, swear words or slurs
or something that like people would be saying.
So I don't, I don't think they'll age out.
I think we'll find new ones maybe.
Yeah, it's what is it about them?
I don't know.
Someone said it once.
I mean, you can, you can say fuck in so many different ways.
I feel like they're, they're so versatile.
I feel like that's kind of part of it.
You could argue that about another word though.
Yeah, but people, people default to swear like a lot of,
I don't know if I necessarily agree with this,
but a lot of people say if you,
if you swear every other word,
you're kind of, you come off as an intelligent person.
Sure.
I mean, I don't sound like that as I swear all the time.
But it would be like me using, so take fuck for example,
if I just swapped that out for a word that also had,
could be used as a verb has a past and present tense
can be an adjective, which I don't even know,
fuck it be used as that, fucky.
But like if I said that, if I said that every other word
to emphasize what I was saying, it would be the same result.
At that point, it's just you're overusing a filler word.
Yeah.
For emphasis essentially.
It's like saying very, like, oh yeah, this is fake.
Yeah.
Which everyone does.
It's like a filler word combined with the taboo nature.
But why is a taboo?
That's the weird part.
We've just deemed it that way.
It has, I mean, also I feel like most of the time
we've deemed words around the context of sex or like,
or something that is typically taboo in nature of like,
who was sexual stuff or like shit, like, I don't know.
I mean, yeah, I guess they all are around inappropriate.
Yes.
It's never like a slur for my foot.
Yeah, that'd be crazy.
It would be pretty nuts for like, I don't know.
My shmeat.
It was like my feet.
It's all I got.
That's a good one.
I'll be open.
It's my ex every Wednesday.
Okay.
How's your morning going?
I might walk back my opinion on this,
but I've been getting, oh shit,
I thought you were just asking me.
Oh no.
We're all over the map today, but it was good.
This is good.
Yeah, I'm happy for you.
It's always good to have a good morning.
I had some coffee.
Sometimes great to have a good morning.
Great morning.
Yeah.
Coffee makes it better.
Maybe a perfect morning.
Anyway, okay, anyway.
Dating apps.
I have a day job and again, I think I might walk back
my opinion on this, but when people try to have a conversation
with you in the morning through a dating app,
like it makes me think either A, you don't have a job,
which was my first impression, which is probably wrong now,
but who's having these conversations in the morning,
unless you work at night?
We've had multiple girls be like,
I know, it's not.
How does it usually says on the profile?
That's true.
I didn't look for that one.
But it's so specific to like telling me,
when I'm asking you how's your morning going,
that's typically a response now thing.
That's not a, I tell you how my morning is going at night.
You expect the person to be there.
Exactly.
And they see that I have a day job.
A person's definitely unemployed.
Probably.
Or is a server or a bartender?
A cloud server.
But it's one of those, I get those
and I don't respond because I can't.
And then I look back at it and it's now nighttime
and I go,
what do you say then?
Like it was.
I don't.
You just don't.
You just cut them off.
I feel like this podcast is just unearse
a bunch of character flaws I have.
And how I'm never going to date anybody
because I'm so picky about fucking everything like that.
No, that's what dating apps do to us.
You just let us be.
And then you meet, it's funny that you'll do that.
And then you go out in public and be like,
there's so many hot chicks everywhere.
Like my,
I know you're a different person.
Your standards are different.
I'm different.
It'll be like when you're,
yeah, it's horrible.
It's bad for society.
Yeah, but it also feels like such a thin veil
of the second you're,
say it progresses and you go on the date.
All the dating app stuff is out the window.
Right, dude.
It's like, it's,
it serves a good purpose in terms of connecting.
But like once you're there,
it's all,
it's all out the window.
Which is can be like, I don't know.
It's nice.
Yeah, I think it's like in a dating app,
some things about the person can come through
quicker than they would in person.
And that's why like the screening is different
online versus in person.
It's pretty much just looks and like maybe,
yeah, like the start of a conversation.
Yeah, that'll attract you to someone,
but a dating app you can pick.
There's everything.
I know.
They're job, you know,
they're heights.
They're height in person.
Which I love all that one.
Unless the girls seven feet tall,
it's like,
well, I'm down with whatever.
Yeah, they're whatever height.
They're a girl taller than you.
I've been intimate with a girl who's six foot.
I'm a two inches above that.
No, it's enough.
But it's like fucking yourself.
I mean, it's a big person.
I mean, six feet, a six foot woman is a large woman.
Like, it's just, it's weird to have to handle someone
who's like, you're your body type.
No, I shouldn't say my body type.
Cause I be like,
she was jazz.
She was bra soldier soldiers, shoulders, huge ass.
But no, it was like, I mean, she was a skinny-ish girl,
but it was still like,
we're looking into each other's faces when we're standing.
Which most girls, I've dated.
I'm like, I'm looking down at them.
So it's a, there's a power dynamic there.
For sure.
She had a lot of power.
Yeah, but,
anything else on the bumble-thane, otherwise,
I got, I don't even know what this one is.
But I keep it rolling, man.
We're hot.
I don't even know how to say this word,
but it's mirror Tiana death by stoning if gay.
That there's a different word for just death by stoning.
Yeah, I don't know what that first one means,
but I don't know.
I mean, being stone has to be one of the worst ways to go.
But being gay and stone.
But it's probably more different.
I mean, probably different category.
Yeah, I guess so.
I mean, I think they used to kill people
for being gay, obviously, by stoning, seems like.
But what is the mirror Tiana death?
That's gonna need a research.
Let's just move on from that one.
All right.
Podcasts are ruining standup for me.
That's true.
These dude, these comedy podcasts,
you're getting unfiltered comedy.
And then you watch a standup act,
and it's like, it feels fake sometimes.
It is, it is because it is fake.
That's the thing.
Right.
Podcasts are way more real.
It's dude.
And when you get some of the funniest guys,
like a Shane Gillis or fucking,
I don't even know, like Theo Vaughn just talking
on a hot mic.
Grant, they edit the, they're so funny.
And then you watch their standup and you're like,
it's good, but it's not them just talking.
I, yeah, I, I won't like say who,
because,
because it, well, it doesn't matter.
They'll come after you, for sure.
No, because I, I have a tremendous amount of respect
for like anyone who has made it in standup.
But there are a lot of people who,
I think they're act truly is terrible,
but they are so funny.
Right.
We've talked about one before.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Podcasts, it's more natural, it's more real.
I know it comes out.
It, yeah.
I can talk about this.
It's weird, because it's like, I feel the exact same way
where I love this comic so much.
And I, but I can't watch their standup anywhere.
And it also comes out and I'm like, this,
this isn't good.
It's so bad, but they put so much work into it.
And they're, they're up there with some,
but then there's like a,
there's like a Louie or Dave Chappelle who,
they're, they have transcended.
They're right.
They're funny in any context.
And some of the best joke writing.
Like it's, yeah, I don't know.
It's weird, because there is, there is us,
there are standups that regardless of how many podcasts
they do, they still have standups that are phenomenal.
And I'm like, oh shit, maybe.
But not to say that other ones are bad.
It's just,
they don't know.
Standup is, is so much harder because you're by yourself
and you have to build all the context for the humor.
Yeah.
Whereas when you're just back and forth,
two or three guys,
all the context is there and you just have to make jokes
about it.
Right.
And there's not an audience.
So like ironically, when you're the person doing
all the writing and you have all the control,
it's, it's less funny.
Right.
Yeah.
I think there's something to be like,
crowd work is super popular now.
Like everyone posts clips or crowd work.
Cause it's spontaneous.
And it's sure.
And if you've been to a show, I feel this way.
Like anytime the comic just snaps at someone
or just says something off the top of their head,
it gets the biggest laugh out of it is pretty
more than their written material as scenes.
Yeah.
So yeah, that's how I feel about.
Yeah.
Also, standup as a light.
Also, and just straight up, I've seen comics do jokes
that they have said in podcasts.
Yeah.
So I know where it's going and they're in their set.
That's fair.
And that's just like purely ruining.
Do you guys guess they're so good for workshopping bits?
Yeah.
Cause you're just talking freeform for a while.
Something's bound to happen.
It's specifically if you're trying to talk in the context
of like making it funny.
Right.
Like it'll just have, there's probably a thousand bits
we've made out of our 10 episodes already.
Yeah.
That we can pull and just try out.
Like a set dude.
Let's do a dual act.
We're trying to do it as an open light.
As an open light.
Love us.
I don't actually don't know if anyone,
I don't think people do that.
They'd be hilarious.
They'd be pretty awesome.
Did I tell you this idea a while ago?
I feel like it did right.
I thought about it would be pretty, I would put my money
on it would get a left.
If I just came in with a suit and a briefcase,
walk down stage and my whole five minutes was me taking
the suit all the way off and then putting it all the way
back on.
No sound.
Just, you don't even talk.
Nothing.
You walk up there and you just fully undressed down
the boxers and go, oh you go to boxers.
Oh yeah.
And then you put it all the way, I mean, I'm not getting naked
in a fucking open mic.
Are you kidding me?
Oh no, I was shocked you were going that far.
Oh yeah, yes.
And then putting it all back on.
And if you got naked, that'd be hilarious.
That'd be the funniest thing ever.
Pretty scarring on top of it.
I don't know if I'm quite comfortable to just get
bug-ass naked.
That'd be fucking nuts.
Wouldn't get it a laugh though.
I actually probably get more shocked than anything.
If you just got naked in an open mic,
from fully dressed suit.
I'd be laughing my ass off.
But yeah, most of the people would probably be quiet.
Oh my god.
I mean, someone would probably stop you.
You think so?
Yeah, it is indecent experience.
I don't know.
They'd see you get to the boxers and then they'd be just waiting.
They'd be like, no, all the security is racist.
They'd be right by the state.
What you're gonna do?
Yeah, no.
I feel like it would get a laugh.
It'd be absurd, but I feel like people would be like,
that was.
It would not get a laugh.
Yeah, because no one's doing that.
No one, I just gonna innovate by being just.
I'm telling you, I would put my mind in.
No one has done that.
Well, I shouldn't say anything in history,
but at that Milwaukee comedy club, no one's done that.
You said, this remind me, this is not in any way
the same thing, but one guy did a set.
The whole time he was like taking off his sweatshirt
and then put it on the mic.
Or put it on the mic stand.
And then it was there for like 10 seconds
and then he like put it back on.
And it like took the whole five minutes
while he was doing his act.
And it was so distracting.
I don't know why he did it.
I mean, it's one thing to have your bits
and doing the other thing.
Yeah, so he was like pulling his arm out
of the sleeve all out.
Maybe it was part of his act.
He was doing, I felt like he was one
of the more experienced guys.
Yeah, they've seen him there.
And I think he was just playing around.
Can I do this?
Yeah, which he can.
I mean, he got like no laughs, but yeah, it's.
I mean, it didn't add anything to the act.
Maybe he was like put, it's like resistance training.
So put this obstacle in.
Yeah, while doing stand up.
Yeah.
Something.
So we're way to go.
It was interesting.
I'm talking about it.
Maybe that's what it's where it made it to our podcast.
Yeah, it's far reaching.
All right.
What time we at that?
Oh, man, we're only at 38.
We got fucking topics, dude.
Let's go.
Wait, give me a spicy one.
You want a spicy one?
Give me the spice.
I don't even know this one.
It's just I'm just going to say it.
Person saying happy birthday to someone who puts the,
oh, actually, know exactly what this is.
This is not spicy for you, though.
So I don't know.
Hold on.
We'll find something.
Gas powered dildos.
Pretty spicy.
That's spicy.
Yeah, yeah.
What were your thoughts when you put that down?
I think it was that there was a time.
I would argue for a lot of time before our.
Our being in the world, dildos were not like an easy thing
to find.
You have to go to the like some shady sex shop.
Find a cucumber.
Yeah, sure.
That's what this is the round going.
Is that like you probably get to, so there's no vibrators,
essentially, or they're harder to get the farther back
you go into time.
But gas powered things existed well before like handheld
electrical devices.
So I'm thinking that somebody probably rigged up a dildo
or something shaped like a dildo to a gas powered thing,
like an engine, and just fucking let it rip inside of them.
But it's hilarious to imagine a dildo with a rip cord
like a lawn mower.
So are you saying, I mean, when you turn a lawn mower on,
it's already vibrating.
You're saying you just attach it to like an engine
that's idling?
I mean, you got an engineering degree.
Just think of the possibility.
You could have a vibrate.
You could have it go back and forth
on depending on what you attached it to.
Jesus, get that.
It would be a dangerous thing powerful.
What else do you think there's?
I don't think there wouldn't be a way to like control it.
So you'd have like a violent dildo.
It's actually a good quick.
Can you just have like a casual gas powered thing?
I feel like anything gas powered is crazy powerful.
Because all combustion.
So it's like, you're exploding something within metal.
So the dildo would be violent, but,
but some would do it.
There's got to be someone who tried that.
What percentage certain are you
that a gas powered dildo has existed in history?
99.
99.
Yeah, dude.
Think of how long?
Think of seven.
I'm gonna say like, under 50%.
Oh, come on.
I'm gonna say like 40.
I'll give you 45.
Let me change your mind on this.
Give me a chance.
All the people that have existed in the world
and all the time that gas powers.
So how many years do you think,
when was the invention of the combustion engine?
Do you know?
It should.
Because we have the Model T Ford,
but before that we probably had combustion.
1918.
But we had, I guess we had steamboats,
but there was like, we had a,
we had coal that made trains go,
but I don't know if that's not a combustion engine.
Steam engine.
The internal combustion engine is gasoline.
So we probably, tell what?
1900 let's say.
Sure.
Okay.
Around there.
And the first electrical dildo,
probably 30, 40 years from then,
there's probably some really,
probably longer, probably 60s
before like an electric dildo handheld vibrator.
Yeah.
I don't know, to the consumer let's say,
those 60 years of humans being what they are,
no one tried a gas power.
We're talking about all over the earth,
in the deep south, in rural places,
no one tried a gas power dildo.
When did we, I think the key is,
when did we figure out that vibrating makes it better?
Because people for sure,
the women have had to have known for so long.
Just so long.
As dildos.
Yeah.
When were they like, I want this to vibrate too?
I mean, that's like,
there was probably an earthquake in 5,000 BC
and a bunch of women were like,
well, that felt pretty good.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Like they had to have known for so long.
They were sitting on a washing machine.
Yeah.
Which that's electricity, but.
And any, yeah, laundry machines.
People do that?
No, no, I know what they are, but like,
people, people, people, people, people.
They're clearly fine.
No, I don't want laundry machines, I.
Did people actually sit on them?
I don't know, that's the whole thing.
Could be.
You've heard of that, right?
Yeah.
It's in like TV shows.
Yeah.
Okay.
Anyway, it's got to be the, there's that.
Yeah.
So the desire is there.
60 years of no dildo.
And then you have the, you have the potential of,
I guess a vibrator here, because that's what we're talking.
Sorry.
Vibrator.
But a gas power dildo is funny.
When you first said gas power dildo,
I thought you meant like, it was going to like shoot
something out of it.
I had no idea what you were talking about.
But like, it could have like a,
a back and forth gas power.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's, I'm just, I got a violent image.
I just think, I think it's crazy to think that someone
didn't try it.
There's so many people in so much time for that period.
It's possible.
45% is a lot.
I'm, I'm, I still think, I mean, I'm saying that
someone tried it 99%.
I'm not saying 45% of people did it.
No, I know.
I'm saying I'm 45% certain that it happened.
Hey, I'll meet you halfway.
What?
Called a cool 70.
I mean, obviously we're never going to figure this out,
but I'm going to go home and look up gas power dildo
and see what comes up.
I'll do heavy research on this.
I'm going to be researching for weeks.
Gonna buy one.
It's going to be great.
Okay, so that was the spicy one.
Let's see if we got, oh, this one's kind of spicy,
which I think the story came out a long time ago,
because I feel like I've already seen this,
but there's these Symees twins,
which I don't know if that we can say that or not anymore,
but conjoined twins.
Interesting.
Yeah, right?
I never thought about that.
Because that's like a nation thing.
Just called Symees.
Yeah, they cut the whole, the whole Symees cat song
out of Aristocats.
Oh, so maybe, why is it?
No, I didn't know that at all.
I didn't realize that Symees had a bad connotation to it.
There was some scene where there's two cats
saying where Symees cats and like dancing
and they, it's on Disney Plus, they cut it out of the movie.
I don't even know what the scene was doing.
Interesting.
Yeah, I couldn't, I truly,
I thought it was just literally like an Asian type of thing.
Yeah.
Like a Symees cat.
I truly don't know.
But anyway, conjoined twins?
Conjoined twins, let's say that, whatever.
One of them's gay and one of them's not
and one has a boyfriend.
So like, and they share the same ass.
They're men for the wreckage.
Well, yeah, what type of conjoined twins are we talking about?
At the hip, white conjoined conjoined twins.
They share the same butt.
They like branch off on the top.
So how many arms do they have?
Four.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's all picture of them.
Below the belt, it's just two legs.
I think they also have one of their own legs
and like a kind of weird conjoined one in the middle.
They have three legs.
But their butts are, I think their butts are conjoined.
Either way, regardless.
A situation where your conjoined twin is gay
and getting fucked and your ass as well,
but you're not gay.
I've always, yeah.
Maybe it's who controls the ass.
I think they probably both have control, right?
They both feel it.
Yeah.
I mean, if not by direct nerve, but crazy.
How do you, what do you do?
If you're the brother,
do you have a conversation where like, dude, you can't,
can you deny your brother his desires?
I think so because you'd be getting raped.
Never thought about it like that.
It's kind of true.
But that's pretty good.
Didn't think about that context.
That is tough though.
It's a tough, tough talk for sure.
Yeah, I guess that's probably like a lifelong thing,
like the gay brother.
Yeah, that's probably like I want to do this so bad.
Yeah, but I know, I know I can gotta be like,
Dolly Lama level.
Like at least.
I guess it's just everyone's got a consent.
Just comes down to consent, right?
I get it, but yeah, which I imagine it's probably
happening on that level, but even then,
if you're consenting, you're not gay or even flippant,
say that the straight one wants to fuck a woman
and the gay guy is like, this is disgusting.
Yeah, I can't do this.
It's a crazy thing.
It's a crazy thing.
It's a crazy thing.
That would be just crazy in that attitude.
Hey, and if anyone, remember we had these Stephen Hawking
conversations of like someone's out there
to love Stephen Hawking, someone out here
is loving these people who are like,
conjoined twins.
And the person who's loving them is not conjoined.
They're like, yeah, this is like,
this does it for me.
There's something out there forever.
Yeah, no, I saw something.
It was like two women conjoined twins
and one of them had a boyfriend.
Yeah, that's just nuts.
It is pretty crazy.
Not to say they don't deserve love or anything,
but it'd be wild to be like, I'm dating this girl
who's connected to another person, her sister.
And every time we have sex, our sister watches us.
She has no choice, really.
You probably just throw the headphones on.
Sit there.
As you get like, Ross.
Noise cancelling.
Okay.
All right, well, we got, that was pretty good.
All right, here's the thing I've noticed as of late.
And I, here talk about being politically correct
and not knowing if terms are racist or all this shit.
That's been the theme of this episode.
Yeah, it really has.
Racism is starting to really hit as a thing.
Every single one of these episodes.
The emojis that have now gone away from yellow
to actual skin color, are your racist,
and racist is extreme.
Is it wrong to continue using the yellow hand?
The yellow one.
Because I use it all the time.
And everyone at my work, they always use white skin color
or black skin color for literally who they are, who they are.
And I'm out here just blasting yellow thumbs up
and gnarly and...
You mean like Asian people like that?
Yeah.
Cause I feel like that's why they're not doing anymore.
Like people who are no longer using the yellow one are going...
Yeah, it's weird.
No, I'm just thinking of the Simpsons
like it's that whole show racist.
But it's weird that like, why was yellow the defaults color?
Uh, I don't know.
They just have maybe more of a yellow with hue.
They're like white, but can also be kind of tan
so it kind of falls more in the color scheme.
I'm not even talking about Asians.
Oh, I thought you were asking why people were doing that.
I was like, not saying it's right, but...
I'm saying, why?
We might have to cut that.
Why, why?
Why are the emojis yellow?
Why is that the default?
I think because the smiley face originally was yellow.
Oh, that was like the emojis.
They just made everything else yellow.
Okay.
Which you actually had...
As far as Asians being called yellow.
Yeah.
Really?
Because I was like, why this doesn't even make sense?
They're not...
Right.
They don't like white and black kind of make sense.
Right.
But apparently it was just some guy way back
who was trying to classify all the races.
By color.
Yeah, and he just chose yellow for Asian people.
Yeah.
I think again, they can be like people from the Philippines
or people from like Korea.
And so they can like be in this gradient
of like pale to brown.
And it can just...
The hue can just end up...
None of them look actually yellow.
But it's closer to what?
It's closer to like what a white person resembles
or resembles resembles or a black person.
Or like, I mean, crazy or...
Not crazy, but like Native Americans would...
Also, yeah, red is crazy too.
Which they had like more brown skin than anything.
But also, I wonder how much of that was like
they had a bunch of like warm makeup,
not even warm makeup, but like maybe that was more
of an accent on their skin.
But it's like whoever set out to do that,
like why did you have to just pick a color for each race?
I mean, at a certain level is...
I guess to identify.
Yeah.
Like if I, you know, if someone's like,
I saw a white man going down the block
who like mugs someone, like I'm looking for a white man now.
If I saw a black...
Did they ever use that on police scanners?
Like, oh yeah.
Like no white male?
Yellow though?
Oh, that would have been crazy.
Yeah.
I mean, no, probably not.
No.
This is yellow, man.
I feel like white and black must have naturally happened first.
Yeah.
And then someone was like, I gotta pick other colors.
But that guy, why?
Sure.
I'm seeing your point now.
Because you would never ever describe...
Yeah.
If you're trying to actually describe
how someone looks, you never go.
That's a red or yellow person.
Like if no one had said that term, like,
oh, a yellow person, I'd be like,
what the fuck are you talking about?
That would be crazy.
Rounding back.
Is it wrong to use these emojis?
If it's feeling more wrong is time progresses
because everyone is not using them.
And I'm the only one using them.
For simply means if I just click the hand that's there,
like it's when I click on the emojis,
it's all yellow.
You're just gonna take the extra effort
to just look at the skin tones.
And just pick your skin tone.
I mean, I just hit the fucking thing.
You know how many yellow hands thumbs up I give a day?
It's insane.
I think it's, I feel like it's still accepted as just...
I think it's still okay.
It's general color.
I definitely don't feel like ostracized
for doing it at a warm.
Well, the faces, the hands are a weird one.
But the faces, they're all yellow still
and you can't like make them different skin colors.
Oh, you sound like the smiley, the emojis, yeah.
It'd be hilarious if they started doing colors for that.
That'd be kind of creepy
because they're very cartoonish.
Yeah, which I don't even know.
I probably wouldn't even resemble anything close to race.
Like you made a red one, it just looked angry.
Like there is a red one.
Yeah, it just looks not.
He's pissed off.
They're so non-human as opposed to a hand.
Yeah, yeah.
That's the difference, I think.
So there are like humanoid versions
that you can change the skin color.
I'm sorry, you said,
I think you're good, dude, don't worry about it.
All right, cool.
I'm glad we covered that.
But if poison expires, isn't more poisonous.
This is, I should have looked this up.
I guess it probably depends on the poison obviously.
Right, it's gotta be, I would think no.
It's gotta be very related to what,
like if, how are we defining poison?
If I give you like, actually I don't know.
I think that's like medicine when it expires.
It's just not as potent.
So it's less potent.
But if I give you like,
botulism from, that's literally spoiled food,
but it's a poison.
If I let that keep rotting,
it's gonna get more poisonous.
Yeah, so it's, if it's non-food,
probably loses a potency.
Like if it's made to be poison, crafted in a lab,
it's probably gonna get less potent.
Yeah, I think by definition, when something expires,
it no longer does the thing it's made for.
Yeah.
Which would make it less poisonous.
So we could drink expired poison.
But there's gotta be some example of like,
chemicals that break down and make worse things.
Like, sure.
So not knowing what those would be.
True, yeah, maybe.
Maybe it's like, like it'll poison you this way
as long as it's before the expiration date.
But if you take it after,
it's gonna be a whole different thing.
Yeah, it'll just be very possible.
Mess you up differently.
Yeah, be fucking terrible.
Talk about, probably a terrible way to go.
You're like, when people,
when people take their lives like drink bleach.
Oh my God, you know.
Dude, like that's such an insane route.
Grand, you're probably in a pretty insane place
to take your life, not a great place.
But out of all the choices,
that's gotta be one of the most painful.
Same with like people who like eat a ton of Tylenol.
Your organ's shut down.
Like it's not a chill, go to sleep and die.
It's your insides get ripped up.
Horribly painful.
Yeah, which, yeah, maybe it's just the most accessible way
to kill yourself at that point.
Because if you think about jumping is probably too intimidating,
how could I find something that's gonna take me out nicely?
It is probably maybe just a necessity.
Oh God.
Anyway.
Complete, yeah.
Yeah, next topic.
Yeah, yeah.
What time we at?
Oh, we got fifth, oh, we can probably do some,
I don't know, one more.
It's 55 right now.
All right.
So,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
gotta find a good one to end.
Oh my God.
Firey plane crash in Gulfs, Florida.
That's just a, oh, I think that's, I don't know if that is.
Oh, as of kind of silly one, we can end on.
You know the word chomo?
You ever hear this?
No.
I heard it growing up.
I thought it was like a variation of cholo.
I was just gonna ask is that cholo.
It means child molester.
Oh, and I have accidentally growing up and like,
what's up, chomo?
Thinking it was like cholo.
And I'm just calling people chile molesters.
Dang.
Yeah.
Also you're calling people cholos.
But a cholo is like,
I guess is there negative connotation to a cholo?
What is a cholo?
It's a Mexican, right?
Yeah, I just thought, yeah.
But like, I think I don't think you call Mexicans that.
I mean, I'm not going out there.
I'm telling Mexicans cholo's right there.
At one point it was funny like middle school back here.
What's up, cholo?
But I would be, I would say chomo as a more of a joke.
And I'm just calling it also kind of funny.
Yeah, very funny.
But I thought it was like just a different cholo.
Do you think everyone you said that to?
New and thought you were joking in that way?
Maybe some.
Oh, he's calling me a chile molester.
Yeah, it's so funny.
I have no idea.
But it was, I realized this like weeks ago.
I remember being a middle school boy.
I just learned the term for the first time.
So you're a hater, me.
Sick.
Which it's not to say it's,
it's weird to have slang for child blaster.
Why is there a cool way to say that?
Or is patto, chomo?
I think that's pretty much it.
Patto seems more of just a shortening of a word.
But that's, that's what chomo is.
Yeah, it just, it sounds too cool.
It sounds to what's like cholo,
which I thought I think is a cool word.
I have, once again, I don't know what exactly what cholo means
is like Mexican like gangster.
Or is it just Mexican?
I don't know.
It felt cool when I would say it.
Like it would be like, I'm calling you a chile.
I don't think I've ever used that word.
We lived different than that.
It sounds like I'm trying to be in a high horse, right?
I've just never said cholo.
Yeah.
I just remember, again,
rather specific instance of saying chomo instead
and being like, oh, I was just calling everyone chobblaster.
Tight.
Pretty hilarious.
Especially when it's middle schoolers.
But anyway, anything to end down before we sign off here?
I don't think so.
Fuck a room.
Maybe one.
Gany peeps.
So there's a hundred percent.
There's fucking gotta be some.
I mean, I've had a thousand of them.
All right, I'll tell you the peeve I got today,
which is probably being the same vein as every single one of these.
But for the audience, we're going to talk a little bit of scrum.
Scrum.
Got it.
All right.
Super quick.
Super quick.
At work for context again, the audience, people put together
these things.
Essentially, you just document the thing you're working on.
Right?
You go, hey, I put it here.
Have a description.
And every week, we have these refinement sessions where we go through all these documents
that everyone writes down,
third thing and needs to have a description.
So because if you don't have a description, we get to these meetings.
And the person goes, oh, man, what was that thing that I wrote down?
Why did I write that?
Same thing how we do with this list, right?
We're like, we get to her like, oh, yeah, I'm doing that.
And oh, and they explain it for 15 fucking minutes.
And it takes up half of the meeting.
And we're now seven weeks into this thing.
And today, we get in this meeting.
And we get to this thing.
And it's literally has a description that just says, pipeline review.
The most general thing you can have in a data engineering world
of pipeline review.
And we go, all right, guy, what does this mean?
He's like, oh, yeah, this is this huge project
with like 10 different parts.
I'm working on this part.
I start working on this thing less.
Oh, what else did I do on that?
Oh, yeah, I worked on this.
And I'm like, so none of this is documented.
Now we're not, you're, he's just talking about it.
And then I cut him off mid meeting.
I said, hey, man, can you, can you put this in the description?
And he's like, oh, yeah.
And then it just continues talking about it.
And no, he's a, he's a data scientist.
So I'm not going to be his boss.
I'd be like, you need to stop talking now.
But there's so many social cues of stop talking,
write the description.
Let's move on.
Because we have like 20 different things that,
people just filling up space when everyone is on the clock.
Yes, dude.
Yeah, that's super annoying.
It's always going to go back to the self-awareness thing
where there's some people are operating on a level
that I don't understand.
How do you not realize what's happening right now?
You're talking, no one else is talking.
You're just talking and talking and talking.
And the only people talking are saying, hey,
stop talking, write the description.
Let's go on to the next thing.
And he goes, I'm going to talk some more.
Yeah.
It's truly wild.
Great guy.
I think I had a similar piv a while ago.
Just people just keep, they just keep talking.
I think I talked about it on the podcast when it's like,
dude, I get it.
Stop what you're saying.
Because you're just wasting my time.
It's like, how do you nicely, at a certain point,
I stop being nice about it.
I've never said that to someone, but yeah,
that's what I'm thinking.
Yeah, there's, yeah, it's nuts.
Well, anyway, anything before sign off?
Pepepe.
Incident recap.
I'll do a piv next week.
All right.
All right, thanks for tuning in.
See you next week.
Peace out.
