Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time Vernina's what's trending.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Monkey barring or monkey branching is a term you need
to know if you're out in the streets trying to
find love. This is a second day in a row
where we're getting new dating trends. But basically this just
means that you're somebody that moves from person to person
and you can't be single.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
So when you move through.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
The branches, you move on the bars or like you're
onto the next, on to the next.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Isn't that called something else? Uh?

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Find swinging up for people as though it's.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Not like I'm not facing your problems. Well, it's just
like suppressing.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
You can't be.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Uh, you can't be you're codefended.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Yes, that's exactly part be by yourself. Yes, can we
stop calling new terms?

Speaker 3 (00:39):
I'm not gonna like guys, you're all confusing me with
these all.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
These new terms.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
I will say though, that these types of terms do
give you a very clear visual of what people are doing,
because maybe sometimes the emotional words are like the therapy
words are kind of tricky or not fully processed. But
when you start talking about monkey barring or monkey branching,
I see you, I see.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
You you say monkey bar just using that in therapy.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
I'm out, Okay, I think you might be a monkey brancher.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Really, what you really want to know?

Speaker 3 (01:08):
What are you flirting with me? They're like asking me
for drinks?

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Are you jealous? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Yes, here's something you shouldn't be jealous of. Dead plant vibes.
Dead plant vibes is also trending, and essentially that means
that you're giving off a bad like energy, negative energy,
because when you walk into a home that has dead
plants in it, they do also add to the energy
of the space. It's negative, it's drained, it's all of

(01:39):
those things. And so now it's a new way to
describe somebody's energy. You're giving me dead plant back.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
I forgot to water my plant now that I just
thought about it.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yikes. Oh you better do that, I know. But also,
plants are hard to keep alive. Have you ever noticed that?

Speaker 2 (01:52):
No, because I've had the same plant now for seven years,
kept it alive for seven years. The money tree, Oh dang,
you watered all the time.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Once a week.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
I give it ice cubes, ten to eleven ice cubes.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
That's my issue.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
My mom taught me that hack and honestly, it's the
easiest thing to do instead of just like pouring water
with the whatever thing, just put ice cubes in there.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Get an easy plants. This is not an ad for
easy plant.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
But is it actually called easy plant?

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, but that's what I get.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
The the the pots that they go in, they have
like a self watering thing. You just water it and
like once every month and it like feeds it at
the water. Why people think I'm good at watering my plants,
but no, I'm not good at any chores like that.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
I don't think anyone thought you were gonna I just.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Definitely didn't think that. But there's no dead plant vibes dead.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Plants in my house.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
I have a lot of plants, you know, but they're
all pretty much self watering. That's really cool actually around
me it will be self sufficient.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
But you will admire it and you will cheer it on.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Thinking of your dogs.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
