Speaker 2 (01:53):
Leaving your house. I believe or not, that's the number one.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
And I remember I.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Posted on Instagram it's a beautiful bunch of flowers that
I had received, and it had this random little I
think it's called a lotus pot and it's got these
little holes in the top of it. The amount of
people who message me and were like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I am so triggered by that flower. I was like,
that's weird. How do you get through life? Well?
