Gideon (01:44):

know.
I don't think Top Ramen countsas a recipe.
I'm getting tined.
bougie
Gideon (01:50):
Top Ramen?
Ashton (01:51):
Okay, I feel like it would depend.
Like, if I, like, made somethingout of it, like I put, like, an
egg and, like, some, like,vegetables and stuff in there,
is that a recipe?
Yeah, can you read the recipe?
Oh, no, it just says cook Youdon't have to have to read it
good thing cuz mom just does apinch of this and a pinch of
that He's just insinuating thatmom can't read cuz I'm sure
she'll have some complaintsabout that one She doesn't come
(02:13):
on to defend herself.
So she's out of luck mom She canread
Gene (02:18):
she
Ashton (02:18):
just chooses not to she chooses to make her own
decisions on that Okay, so Ithink that's a yes for all all
of us Do you know where yourphone keys and wallet are at
this exact moment?
You See, here's my phone.
Are you sure this isn't a race?
Phone, wallet, keys.
What?
Are you sure this isn't a race?
It doesn't matter if it is, thisis how we're doing it.
Alright.
Don't judge me.
(02:39):
Do you know how to change atire?
Hold on, do you know where yourkeys are?
Does everyone know where theirkeys and wallet are?
I do.
I'm going to have to click no onwhere my wallet is at this
point.
Gideon (02:49):
Oh, no, it's behind me.
It's right behind you.
Oh, and with my
Ashton (02:54):
keys.
That's a good thing.
It's not under Frisbee or itwould have been lost for a week.
Yeah, we did lose a, we did losea wallet while we were on family
vacation and it was on the,under a Frisbee where?
A lot of wheeze in thatsentence.
Well, because somebody put theirFrisbee on top of my wallet.
Where was my wallet?
It was on the kitchen table.
With the frisbee on top of it,so we lost it.
(03:18):
Democracy.
Love it.
I lost my wallet.
I wonder who plays frisbee,that's embarrassing.
Do you know how to change atire?
Do all three of you know how tochange a tire?
I don't think any of us.
Okay, here's a Gideon's neverchanged a tire.
He definitely didn't fix thebrakes with me and dad the other
day.
That's what I'm saying.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
I think that's a yes for all ofyou.
(03:38):
Do you have enough cleanunderwear right now to last at
least three days?
No.
Honest.
Honest, Gideon.
I just saw you folding yours.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Yes.
You know, do you set your owndentist appointments?
My most recent dentistappointment?
(03:59):
I set it myself.
When did you go to the dentistmost recently?
Like a year ago.
And mom didn't set it for you?
No, I set it up.
It had to have been more than ayear.
You set that one up?
No.
Gene, did you set yourappointment up?
Ah, dig it.
I'm going to fail the nextquestion.
I have never set up a dentistappointment.
So I had to click no on that onetoo.
Do you go to the dentist everysix months?
I No.
Gideon (04:19):
Momming makes me mean.
Ashton (04:23):
Dude, there's a lot of teeth one right here, this is
kind of brutal.
Number eight, do you floss everyday?
Nope.
I always am flossing.
You do floss, Gene?
Like the dance moves, notactually flossing.
Not the teeth.
It doesn't say teeth.
So Ashton, you didn't do theother floss every day?
(04:44):
No.
The dance floss either?
I'm also, I'm, I'm less likelyto do the version Gene's talking
about.
Alright, do you set your owndoctor's appointments?
Oh man, I'm losing, I'm notdoing good at any of these.
If you don't set them, but noone else is setting them for
you, you're technically settingyour own appointments.
That's, that's how I'mapproaching this.
Okay, this one, this one isyour, and I want to know how
(05:07):
this pertains to being an adult.
Is your phone, this is number10, is your phone screen
currently not cracked?
Yes.
You're currently not cracked?
I take very good care of myphone screen.
So do you answer that questionyes or no?
No.
My phone is currently notcracked, so yes.
(05:28):
Yes, okay, neither is mine.
Gene?
My phone is perfectly fine.
Gideon?
Mine's pretty good.
Oh, we all got it?
Sweet.
Okay, is your house or apartmentinsured?
Gideon (05:40):
Is my house insured?
Ashton (05:41):
Yes, your house is insured.
Gene?
Gene?
Gene?
I think I technically still haverenters insurance.
I think so.
I would think so.
Okay.
That's
Gideon (05:53):
a nice question.
It's pretty funny.
Ashton (05:54):
I haven't followed up with my landlord.
I'm like, is my apartmentcurrently insured?
I don't know.
Probably not.
Ashton, you had to buy the houserenters insurance for one
apartment he lived in.
So you're probably not insured,Gene, but you probably don't
have enough that you're reallythat worried about.
Yep.
All right, number 12.
Do you eat at least somevegetables every day?
(06:16):
And I would, I would argue thatpotato chips don't count as a
vegetable.
Gideon (06:21):
No.
Ashton (06:22):
Even though it's a potato.
Gideon (06:23):
At least some vegetables.
Most things
Ashton (06:25):
we define as a vegetable does not count as an actual
vegetable.
Wait, broccoli?
Like pumpkins?
They're fruits.
Okay, but bananas?
Gideon (06:34):
They're definitely a fruit.
Ashton (06:35):
They're a fruit.
Okay, do I
Gideon (06:37):
what did I eat a vegetable today, right?
Ashton (06:39):
I don't oh, yeah on our pizza.
Is it every day?
Question right there.
Hey, did I eat a vegetabletoday?
Yeah, yeah, no I had dementia issetting in okay, what were they
Gideon (06:52):
Green onion I put in That is a vegetable.
Ashton (06:56):
That's some do you arrive to school or work on time
most days?
I like how it doesn't You Evenassume all days.
It just defaults to most of thetime.
Because nobody's ever always on.
Well, I mean, you don't haveschool every day.
You don't have work almost everyday.
You have work almost every day.
(07:17):
Most, some people do work everysingle day, of being perfect.
I think 14, I think 14 is kindof a tricky one.
Do you arrive to school or doyou arrive to school?
Do you arrive to social eventslike brunches or weddings on
time?
Are you supposed to be on time?
I don't think so.
I think being on time is againstthe rules.
I would say church.
Let's put church in that one.
(07:38):
Still no.
Okay.
I'm always fashionably late.
No, I'm boring.
Do you wash your dirty dishes orput them in the dishwasher right
after you use them?
If anyone in this call answersyes is lying.
Correct.
Really?
You don't think I do that?
Gene, you're on your own.
(08:00):
You're the only one thatprobably could.
Gene, I don't think you did it.
I still think, yeah, I
Gideon (08:03):
still think you'd be lying.
I think
Ashton (08:04):
in order Most of the time I do do it.
Most of the time that's a yes.
Does it say all the time?
There's not a lot of room in thedrawing rack.
Most of the times I do it.
Unfortunately for you, this onedoesn't say most of the time.
It says all the time.
Gene, so close, you're our onlyhope.
Gene, you're our only hope.
Gideon (08:26):
Do you have at least one wedding or job interview
appropriate outfit in yourcloset?
Yes.
Ashton (08:32):
Now let's make sure we're talking about what kind of
wedding.
Those are job interviewappropriate.
Cuz a lot of our family weddingsyou don't need it.
Anyways, good point.
Okay.
Ooh, this one's good Do you payfor your own cell phone
Dad (08:46):
plan?
Yep.
Oh, siree Jean 18
Ashton (08:57):
No, do you
Gideon (09:01):
pay for your own?
Ashton (09:02):
Do you pay for your own?
I feel like this one's baitingeverybody.
Yeah.
Well, this is, this is done bybig Netflix so they can out the
password shares.
I think that's right.
What good thing would I haveNetflix?
So we can say, do we have ourown you'd say no, but the, I
think the, I think we shouldtechnically, yes, I think I have
to say yes, because I don't haveNetflix.
Yeah.
I want to, but if I did, I'dhave to pay for my own.
(09:22):
If you pay for your own, it'spositive, so we should go
positive.
Yeah, okay.
Yes.
You pay for your own flights?
I have.
There you go.
But like, I haven't as well.
So Gene would have to click no.
Gideon, have you paid for yourown flight?
No.
I think you and I get this one,Ashton.
Skull.
Do you pay for your own regularbills and utilities?
(09:45):
Yes.
Yup.
Get in.
You're the only maybe not fullgrown adult.
Gideon (09:51):
That's a strange coincidence, given I'm not an
adult.
Oh.
Okay, 21 isn't fair either.
Ashton (09:58):
Do you have at least one plant in the house that you've
kept alive for more than 6months?
Gideon (10:02):
Yoda.
Yoda.
Yoda.
That's the dog.
He's not a plant.
Ashton (10:07):
He's not a plant.
Mom, mom should fill this out.
She's probably the only adult inmy relationship.
She's got a plant heresomewhere.
I think it's that right behind.
I didn't even know where ourplants were.
That's embarrassing.
There's one over there too.
You pointed to the wrong spot.
There's two in the kitchen.
I didn't know where they wereat.
There's the alfalfa cracksthere.
(10:29):
So, I don't currently own aplant, but I have kept a plant
alive.
Does grass count as a plant?
Do you keep your grass alive?
Mom does! I mean, you water it?
Oh crap, Mom! Michelle! Come!We're a team, okay?
clacking yes to this no.
(10:49):
I took no, because I reallydon't keep them alive.
What if I've never owned one?
Hey Gideon, Gideon, Gideon.
You got this one.
You got this one.
This one's you.
Do you have
Gideon (10:59):
at least one pet animal in your house that you've kept
alive for more than six months?
Yes.
Yes siree, I have.
Ashton (11:07):
He's old as crap now.
What were you gonna say, G?
I was gonna say if I've neverowned a plant, can I do like the
same logic as Netflix?
That's how Ashton's doing it.
Nuh it's an What plant have youkept alive on your own?
See, I didn't even, I didn'teven click yes for 21, and I
have kept a plant alive for morethan six months on my own.
Okay.
Gideon (11:26):
So I clicked no.
Ashton (11:28):
Do you own the plant?
On that animal?
You've killed an animal?
In six months?
Yeah, he got a deer.
Gideon (11:34):
Well, I was talking about a goldfish.
Ashton (11:35):
A goldfish.
That's not even an animal.
It's a plant.
Gideon (11:40):
Yeah, it's
Ashton (11:40):
a plant.
Do you own the proper suppliesto clean your home effectively?
I was thinking of the crackers.
I realize there's an actualanimal called a goldfish.
That's my fault.
That's my bad.
That doesn't count as yourvegetable if you've been eating
it every day too.
That don't count.
Wait, she You said goldfish andI was thinking of like, the
(12:03):
cracker.
Are you hungry?
And, and, well, it's always partof my issue.
Okay, so we asked number 23, doyou own proper supplies to clean
your home?
I do.
Can I say yes?
Sure.
They are owned.
They're not stolen.
Do you actually use thosesupplies to clean your home
regularly?
Yes, I do.
Define regularly.
(12:23):
Define regularly.
Like, it's a plan.
Every six months, I cleansomething.
I think you have to define it,it's a problem.
Do you own a tool set ortoolbox?
Gideon (12:32):
I do.
Ashton bought me one.
And I use it.
Ashton (12:37):
Do you have a tool set?
I have a multi, I have a multitool.
Gideon (12:42):
No.
And Alan Key.
Yeah.
Ashton (12:44):
I think maybe it does.
Cause you can do, look atMacGyver.
Go ahead.
Gene.
I don't like this next question.
I was given like a.
A hammer and a screwdriver andall that stuff from, from one of
the people in the wood.
There you go.
You got it.
Hammer and screwdriver.
That's all you got.
That's all you need.
Everything's in now.
Okay.
Do you have a good idea of whatyou want to do with your life?
(13:06):
Sure.
That's a loaded question.
Why not?
That's a loaded question.
Gideon (13:10):
I could get.
Ashton (13:13):
Oh.
I mean, how long term are wetalking?
Gideon (13:16):
Your life.
Ashton (13:18):
Gene, Gene, you've got to read the next one.
This is good.
Yeah, Gene, read this question.
This will be fun.
I want to know what justhappened earlier today.
Gene (13:26):
27.
Ashton (13:29):
Do you do your own taxes or pay a professional to do
them, as opposed to asking yourparents?
In my defense, I never asked.
Mom just did it.
I
Gideon (13:41):
don't have taxes.
Also, to be fair, your
Ashton (13:45):
taxes are really easy right now, I'm sure.
Incredibly easy.
How easy were they, Gene?
You just listened to mom, didn'tyou?
I mean
Gideon (13:55):
Can I say I do my own taxes?
Ashton (13:57):
It was very easy for me.
You haven't done any taxes.
I pay somebody to do mine.
So I could click yes.
I do my own.
Do you ever write vaguesubtweets or other petty social
media posts?
No.
Are the vague ones where, like,you go, I don't want to disclose
personal problems on Facebook,but I'm frustrated.
(14:19):
Vague is like, is when someoneposts, like, had a really bad
day, and that's like it.
Oh, gotcha.
Well, what if I showed a pictureof my car, had a really bad day,
and then showed the caraccident?
That's still baiting, becausethey're gonna be like, what
happened?
What'd you do?
That's a good point.
Well, I felt pretty dumb.
I asked somebody if they knew agood divorce lawyer on Facebook
and then went, wait a second,I've got to clarify a buddy
(14:41):
asked.
Now this one's truly asking fora friend.
So I took down the post rightafter I did.
I'm like, that's not good.
That's that's vague and baiting.
I'm going to post, Hey, my dad'slooking for a divorce lawyer.
Anyone, we found somebody, Ifound somebody to help my
friends.
Got to be careful how you askthose.
That's a good thing.
You don't have that problembecause this quiz is not helping
you.
(15:02):
29.
Do
Gideon (15:05):
you have a savings account?
It still counts if it's kind ofempty.
I'm saved by that secondsentence.
Let's go.
There's money in it.
What if my savings account haslike 10 cents in it right
Ashton (15:16):
now?
It says it's kind of empty.
It still counts.
It still counts if it isn't.
Gideon (15:22):
Even if it's kind of empty.
Ashton (15:23):
I like, I like 30.
Do you have dry clean onlyclothes?
That you actually take to thedry cleaners.
Actually, yes.
Alright.
I don't take them very often,but I have taken them.
Gene, we, I remember we tookyours to the, go ahead.
I, yeah.
Yeah, I was gonna say, like, Ithink we did take one of my
suits to a dry cleaners.
(15:44):
It, it was done.
Are you?
It's not done often, but we didit.
Are you often late getting tothe airport for flights?
No, I am not.
I have never been, actually.
Gideon (15:58):
Yep, me neither.
Because dad's like we're gonnaget there three hours early.
Ashton (16:01):
Oh, i'm definitely the dad on on the geico commercial
or whoever that is I'll staywhoever Not a good commercial if
I can't remember what it's for.
Do you actually like brusselssprouts?
Gideon (16:11):
What is this question?
Do you know what a brusselssprout is?
Yeah, I know what a brussels
Ashton (16:15):
sprouts are bad actually I don't
Gideon (16:17):
know if i've ever eaten a brussels sprout.
Ashton (16:19):
I'm not picky when it comes to food So i'm just gonna
go with yes.
I love broccoli, which
Gideon (16:23):
is the next question.
Yeah.
Ashton (16:24):
Yeah number 33 Broccoli
Gideon (16:28):
Yes, I like that.
Ashton (16:29):
34, have you ever cooked a meal for more than two people
before?
Yes, I have.
Any of you guys that had to dothe scouting merit badge had to
cook for more than two, so.
Scouts, belled you out.
Heard that.
Gideon, your ramen that you madefor the family doesn't count.
Gideon (16:44):
I'm sorry, it does.
It
Ashton (16:45):
does, but now the next question wouldn't.
Have you ever cooked somethingentirely from scratch with no
pre made boxed components?
Yes, I have.
Sir?
Gene (16:56):
Yes, I have.
I believe that tortilla wouldcount
Ashton (17:00):
as a, as a pre made component.
What if I made
Gideon (17:05):
pasta?
Ashton (17:06):
Did you make pasta?
I didn't make the noodle.
Well then that's, that's notfrom scratch.
Wait, wait, hold on.
That's a pre made component.
If I made mac and cheese.
So what, what would, yeah, thatwould still be pre made because
of mac and cheese.
No, not from the box.
Yeah.
Gideon, Gideon.
The noodles have to be made.
It's like saying you made aburger, but there's the bread
(17:29):
that wasn't, you didn't make.
Noodles don't just appear, dude.
It's still one of thosecomponents that can't be made.
You can't
Gideon (17:33):
say you made a steak or something if you bought the
steak.
Ashton (17:38):
I killed the deer.
I cooked the deer.
Oh, I made tacos, but the groundbeef was already ground.
No, but see, look.
The thing is, is like, a noodle,like, is not just a noodle.
Like, a steak is a steak.
It's just one solid piece ofmeat that came off of an animal,
but a noodle is flour and eggand spices that's been cooked
(18:01):
and mixed and rolled and shaped.
Whereas like a steak, you justcut it off and fry it.
Gideon (18:09):
That's two steps.
Ashton (18:11):
And then, you'd also have to make the seasonings,
like, blend the seasoningsyourself.
You couldn't just, like, cookit.
Throw Tony's on top of it formaking a salt.
He's actually helping you.
You're just he's actuallyarguing your point get in You're
so angry.
You don't hear it.
You're just salty.
You've never made noodles andthat's fine I can say I have
(18:32):
done this you made spices geneand I've made jerky before I've
made ruse I count like I've I'vemade a gumbo counts to gumbo
count From scratch.
So that's So you threw the rice.
I just, no, I'm just kidding.
The question just says, nopre-made or boxed components.
And Gideon, what do the noodlesyou buy from the store come in a
(18:54):
bag, Excellent.
Alright.
But the point are made.
Surprise.
Mr.
Butter, anything you say, onepoint you choose however you
wanna.
Nice, good throwback.
Anybody who hasn't seen thatvideo, that's worth watching.
This is the first
Gideon (19:11):
episode
Ashton (19:11):
of Adulting Decrypted.
Can you properly hang a picture?
Alright, yes.
What the heck does that evenmean?
Number 36.
We can't keep your picture thatwe hung up on the wall keeps
falling off, so apparently Ican't.
It looks like an effort hasn'tbeen made to get it back up,
which I have noted.
It's fine.
The picture is
Gideon (19:28):
lying on the
Ashton (19:29):
floor.
As of this time and date,Ashton's still on the ground.
Have you ever installed a shelf?
Yes.
Yep.
You and Gideon did thatdownstairs, huh?
Yeah.
That one.
Yeah.
That our router's sitting on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was pretty proud.
Do you regularly read the news?
Yes.
Wait.
No.
Am I getting ahead?
Sorry.
Nope.
I was just thinking.
(19:49):
I don't think mine counts.
I don't really Oh, read.
I definitely don't.
I, I, I think read and orconsume kind of fit in the same
thing.
do you enjoy watchingdocumentaries?
Do memes count as enjoy?
I actually like in ingest of thememes, I ingest it via memes.
Do you enjoy watchingdocumentaries?
(20:10):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Dad (20:11):
Yeah.
Really?
Mm hmm.
Gene.
Do
Ashton (20:14):
you like watching them?
Certain documentaries?
Yeah.
Yes.
Like, I, I think they're alwaysinteresting.
I'd never choose it if I wasgiven movies, but I enjoy
watching things, so it's kind ofvague.
Gideon (20:27):
It's fair.
Ashton (20:28):
I, I probably enjoy watching most things.
Do you ever listen to NPR?
I have to admit that I do.
Everyone, I do.
I did.
I hardly listen now because I'vegot
Gideon (20:37):
I don't even know what that stands for,
Ashton (20:39):
so.
National Public Radio.
It's like, it's, yeah, it's likea definition of an old person's
radio.
Nah.
A liberal old person's radio.
Sorry.
Didn't mean to.
I have listened to it, though.
Sure.
Do you have an emergency kit inyour car?
Nope.
Yep.
We do?

Dad, do you make your bed everymorning?
No, because mom's normally stillin it.
I have to click no.
Cool.

Ashton (21:40):

Okay.
But I thought we were readingnumber 45 G.
Oh.

Do you know how?
Number 46.
Do you wash or change your bathtowel at least once a week?
Yes.
I can't stand old bath towels.
Oh my gosh.
Gideon (22:03):
I have to like, smell it before I get in the shower.
How much?
Nope.
Ashton (22:07):
Gotta make sure it's a safe bath towel.
Yeah.
Gideon (22:10):
No way I'm wiping off of this.
Gene, you're
Ashton (22:11):
being pretty quiet on the bath towel.
You're already clean when you'redrying off.
There's nothing to dirty.
Gideon (22:21):
They can get smelly.
Ashton (22:23):
And you get old mossy towels.
Gideon (22:26):
I think I change it almost every time I shower.
Yeah.
Ashton (22:30):
So like once a week?
Got em.
Gideon (22:33):
Three times maybe two.
Ashton (22:35):
That was the requirement for the question.
Gideon has his time to showerwhen his towel smells worse than
he does.
Nice.
Number 47.
Do you have a skincare routine?
I'm gonna click yes, because Ishampoo my hair.
No all the way to my face
Gideon (22:52):
What wait You shampoo your face for your skincare
routine?
Okay,
Ashton (22:57):
because I have more hair on my head.
Sure it counts whatever Yeah,we're gonna let anything count.
Anyway, okay, do you know how tounclog a drain?
What my skincare routine is theall natural approach.
You just go outside and rub dirton your face?
Like, what do you mean?
No, just don't do anything toit.
That would be lack of a routine,my friend.
(23:18):
The routine is there is noroutine.
If you don't do anything,there's no routine.
Where you routinely do nothing,I guess.
Gideon (23:25):
So, do we know how to unclog your drain?
Ashton (23:28):
I do.
That one's not a Wii questionthere, buddy.
I was just making sure we allread the question.
I do.
I want to know, do you, Gideon?
What drain?
Any drain.
Just any drain.
I'm not picky.
I think so.
Dad (23:42):
Yeah.
Gene?
Okay.
Yeah.
Ashton (23:47):
Yeah, a toilet drain, man.
401k is up next.
Do we all know what a 401k is?
I do.
We've talked about it a coupleof times.
401k is?
Honestly, taxes?
Nope.
Nope.
No, I don't.
It's a, yeah, good question.
It's a government approvedemployer contributed to
(24:10):
retirement plan.
that will be in finance 1 0 3.
We're gonna set up the Roth,which is similar to 401k, but
it's private.
Sweet.
Okay.
Here's the final question.
Final number 50, how old I am?
Do you have to think for asecond When people ask how old
you are, because you kind offorgot.
Dad (24:28):
Yep.
No.
Gene (24:32):
Done.
Yeah, done with quiz.
Done with the quiz.
Dad (24:38):
Alright.
Let's see how we rank baby.
Ashton (24:44):
It doesn't say the points.
It glitched out.
We got points per set, guys.
We just did the whole quiz.
It doesn't tell you how many.
It doesn't tell you the percent.
That's annoying.
Now listen though, here's thedeal.
(25:06):
I am definitely a full blownadult.
Oh, that's true.
It does have a description.
I probably have a budget thatyou stick to and stuff.
Hey, we have the same, we havethe same description, Dan.
Let's go.
Nice, Ashton.
Gideon (25:18):
I think me and June have the same one.
It's like, not bad, you'resomewhere between adult and non
adult, judging by how youdefinitely have your stuff
together in some ways, but mightlack the life experience to know
it all.
Trying to
Ashton (25:27):
refresh it to see if it like, fixes it, but I just can't
believe that the points don'twork.
That's actually really funny.
Ready for
Gideon (25:34):
the next quiz?
Ashton (25:35):
Yeah.
What's the next quiz?
And I'm not ready to retake thequiz either.
Gideon (25:39):

He's a cat.
Oh, there he is.
Ashton.
Wait, can I change my face?
You can decide these things.

That's cool.
You're stuck?
Do you do your own laundry?
(01:28):
Oh, there we go.

I don't know.
Let's read them one at a time.
Do you do your own laundry?
Don't tell anybody.
Keep it a secret.
Yes.
Can you look up at least threedifferent recipes?
No, can you cook?
Oh, cook.
I mean, anyone can cook.
That's a big Should we, shouldwe talk to him as we go?
Gideon (01:44):
What counts as a recipe?
I don't
Ashton (01:46):
know.
I don't think Top Ramen countsas a recipe.
I'm getting tined.
bougie
Gideon (01:50):
Top Ramen?
Ashton (01:51):
Okay, I feel like it would depend.
Like, if I, like, made somethingout of it, like I put, like, an
egg and, like, some, like,vegetables and stuff in there,
is that a recipe?
Yeah, can you read the recipe?
Oh, no, it just says cook Youdon't have to have to read it
good thing cuz mom just does apinch of this and a pinch of
that He's just insinuating thatmom can't read cuz I'm sure
she'll have some complaintsabout that one She doesn't come
(02:13):
on to defend herself.
So she's out of luck mom She canread
Gene (02:18):
she
Ashton (02:18):
just chooses not to she chooses to make her own
decisions on that Okay, so Ithink that's a yes for all all
of us Do you know where yourphone keys and wallet are at
this exact moment?
You See, here's my phone.
Are you sure this isn't a race?
Phone, wallet, keys.
What?
Are you sure this isn't a race?
It doesn't matter if it is, thisis how we're doing it.
Alright.
Don't judge me.
(02:39):
Do you know how to change atire?
Hold on, do you know where yourkeys are?
Does everyone know where theirkeys and wallet are?
I do.
I'm going to have to click no onwhere my wallet is at this
point.
Gideon (02:49):
Oh, no, it's behind me.
It's right behind you.
Oh, and with my
Ashton (02:54):
keys.
That's a good thing.
It's not under Frisbee or itwould have been lost for a week.
Yeah, we did lose a, we did losea wallet while we were on family
vacation and it was on the,under a Frisbee where?
A lot of wheeze in thatsentence.
Well, because somebody put theirFrisbee on top of my wallet.
Where was my wallet?
It was on the kitchen table.
With the frisbee on top of it,so we lost it.
(03:18):
Democracy.
Love it.
I lost my wallet.
I wonder who plays frisbee,that's embarrassing.
Do you know how to change atire?
Do all three of you know how tochange a tire?
I don't think any of us.
Okay, here's a Gideon's neverchanged a tire.
He definitely didn't fix thebrakes with me and dad the other
day.
That's what I'm saying.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
I think that's a yes for all ofyou.
(03:38):
Do you have enough cleanunderwear right now to last at
least three days?
No.
Honest.
Honest, Gideon.
I just saw you folding yours.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Yes.
You know, do you set your owndentist appointments?
My most recent dentistappointment?
(03:59):
I set it myself.
When did you go to the dentistmost recently?
Like a year ago.
And mom didn't set it for you?
No, I set it up.
It had to have been more than ayear.
You set that one up?
No.
Gene, did you set yourappointment up?
Ah, dig it.
I'm going to fail the nextquestion.
I have never set up a dentistappointment.
So I had to click no on that onetoo.
Do you go to the dentist everysix months?
I No.
Gideon (04:19):
Momming makes me mean.
Ashton (04:23):
Dude, there's a lot of teeth one right here, this is
kind of brutal.
Number eight, do you floss everyday?
Nope.
I always am flossing.
You do floss, Gene?
Like the dance moves, notactually flossing.
Not the teeth.
It doesn't say teeth.
So Ashton, you didn't do theother floss every day?
(04:44):
No.
The dance floss either?
I'm also, I'm, I'm less likelyto do the version Gene's talking
about.
Alright, do you set your owndoctor's appointments?
Oh man, I'm losing, I'm notdoing good at any of these.
If you don't set them, but noone else is setting them for
you, you're technically settingyour own appointments.
That's, that's how I'mapproaching this.
Okay, this one, this one isyour, and I want to know how
(05:07):
this pertains to being an adult.
Is your phone, this is number10, is your phone screen
currently not cracked?
Yes.
You're currently not cracked?
I take very good care of myphone screen.
So do you answer that questionyes or no?
No.
My phone is currently notcracked, so yes.
(05:28):
Yes, okay, neither is mine.
Gene?
My phone is perfectly fine.
Gideon?
Mine's pretty good.
Oh, we all got it?
Sweet.
Okay, is your house or apartmentinsured?
Gideon (05:40):
Is my house insured?
Ashton (05:41):
Yes, your house is insured.
Gene?
Gene?
Gene?
I think I technically still haverenters insurance.
I think so.
I would think so.
Okay.
That's
Gideon (05:53):
a nice question.
It's pretty funny.
Ashton (05:54):
I haven't followed up with my landlord.
I'm like, is my apartmentcurrently insured?
I don't know.
Probably not.
Ashton, you had to buy the houserenters insurance for one
apartment he lived in.
So you're probably not insured,Gene, but you probably don't
have enough that you're reallythat worried about.
Yep.
All right, number 12.
Do you eat at least somevegetables every day?
(06:16):
And I would, I would argue thatpotato chips don't count as a
vegetable.
Gideon (06:21):
No.
Ashton (06:22):
Even though it's a potato.
Gideon (06:23):
At least some vegetables.
Most things
Ashton (06:25):
we define as a vegetable does not count as an actual
vegetable.
Wait, broccoli?
Like pumpkins?
They're fruits.
Okay, but bananas?
Gideon (06:34):
They're definitely a fruit.
Ashton (06:35):
They're a fruit.
Okay, do I
Gideon (06:37):
what did I eat a vegetable today, right?
Ashton (06:39):
I don't oh, yeah on our pizza.
Is it every day?
Question right there.
Hey, did I eat a vegetabletoday?
Yeah, yeah, no I had dementia issetting in okay, what were they
Gideon (06:52):
Green onion I put in That is a vegetable.
Ashton (06:56):
That's some do you arrive to school or work on time
most days?
I like how it doesn't You Evenassume all days.
It just defaults to most of thetime.
Because nobody's ever always on.
Well, I mean, you don't haveschool every day.
You don't have work almost everyday.
You have work almost every day.
(07:17):
Most, some people do work everysingle day, of being perfect.
I think 14, I think 14 is kindof a tricky one.
Do you arrive to school or doyou arrive to school?
Do you arrive to social eventslike brunches or weddings on
time?
Are you supposed to be on time?
I don't think so.
I think being on time is againstthe rules.
I would say church.
Let's put church in that one.
(07:38):
Still no.
Okay.
I'm always fashionably late.
No, I'm boring.
Do you wash your dirty dishes orput them in the dishwasher right
after you use them?
If anyone in this call answersyes is lying.
Correct.
Really?
You don't think I do that?
Gene, you're on your own.
(08:00):
You're the only one thatprobably could.
Gene, I don't think you did it.
I still think, yeah, I
Gideon (08:03):
still think you'd be lying.
I think
Ashton (08:04):
in order Most of the time I do do it.
Most of the time that's a yes.
Does it say all the time?
There's not a lot of room in thedrawing rack.
Most of the times I do it.
Unfortunately for you, this onedoesn't say most of the time.
It says all the time.
Gene, so close, you're our onlyhope.
Gene, you're our only hope.
Gideon (08:26):
Do you have at least one wedding or job interview
appropriate outfit in yourcloset?
Yes.
Ashton (08:32):
Now let's make sure we're talking about what kind of
wedding.
Those are job interviewappropriate.
Cuz a lot of our family weddingsyou don't need it.
Anyways, good point.
Okay.
Ooh, this one's good Do you payfor your own cell phone
Dad (08:46):
plan?
Yep.
Oh, siree Jean 18
Ashton (08:57):
No, do you
Gideon (09:01):
pay for your own?
Ashton (09:02):
Do you pay for your own?
I feel like this one's baitingeverybody.
Yeah.
Well, this is, this is done bybig Netflix so they can out the
password shares.
I think that's right.
What good thing would I haveNetflix?
So we can say, do we have ourown you'd say no, but the, I
think the, I think we shouldtechnically, yes, I think I have
to say yes, because I don't haveNetflix.
Yeah.
I want to, but if I did, I'dhave to pay for my own.
(09:22):
If you pay for your own, it'spositive, so we should go
positive.
Yeah, okay.
Yes.
You pay for your own flights?
I have.
There you go.
But like, I haven't as well.
So Gene would have to click no.
Gideon, have you paid for yourown flight?
No.
I think you and I get this one,Ashton.
Skull.
Do you pay for your own regularbills and utilities?
(09:45):
Yes.
Yup.
Get in.
You're the only maybe not fullgrown adult.
Gideon (09:51):
That's a strange coincidence, given I'm not an
adult.
Oh.
Okay, 21 isn't fair either.
Ashton (09:58):
Do you have at least one plant in the house that you've
kept alive for more than 6months?
Gideon (10:02):
Yoda.
Yoda.
Yoda.
That's the dog.
He's not a plant.
Ashton (10:07):
He's not a plant.
Mom, mom should fill this out.
She's probably the only adult inmy relationship.
She's got a plant heresomewhere.
I think it's that right behind.
I didn't even know where ourplants were.
That's embarrassing.
There's one over there too.
You pointed to the wrong spot.
There's two in the kitchen.
I didn't know where they wereat.
There's the alfalfa cracksthere.
(10:29):
So, I don't currently own aplant, but I have kept a plant
alive.
Does grass count as a plant?
Do you keep your grass alive?
Mom does! I mean, you water it?
Oh crap, Mom! Michelle! Come!We're a team, okay?
clacking yes to this no.
(10:49):
I took no, because I reallydon't keep them alive.
What if I've never owned one?
Hey Gideon, Gideon, Gideon.
You got this one.
You got this one.
This one's you.
Do you have
Gideon (10:59):
at least one pet animal in your house that you've kept
alive for more than six months?
Yes.
Yes siree, I have.
Ashton (11:07):
He's old as crap now.
What were you gonna say, G?
I was gonna say if I've neverowned a plant, can I do like the
same logic as Netflix?
That's how Ashton's doing it.
Nuh it's an What plant have youkept alive on your own?
See, I didn't even, I didn'teven click yes for 21, and I
have kept a plant alive for morethan six months on my own.
Okay.
Gideon (11:26):
So I clicked no.
Ashton (11:28):
Do you own the plant?
On that animal?
You've killed an animal?
In six months?
Yeah, he got a deer.
Gideon (11:34):
Well, I was talking about a goldfish.
Ashton (11:35):
A goldfish.
That's not even an animal.
It's a plant.
Gideon (11:40):
Yeah, it's
Ashton (11:40):
a plant.
Do you own the proper suppliesto clean your home effectively?
I was thinking of the crackers.
I realize there's an actualanimal called a goldfish.
That's my fault.
That's my bad.
That doesn't count as yourvegetable if you've been eating
it every day too.
That don't count.
Wait, she You said goldfish andI was thinking of like, the
(12:03):
cracker.
Are you hungry?
And, and, well, it's always partof my issue.
Okay, so we asked number 23, doyou own proper supplies to clean
your home?
I do.
Can I say yes?
Sure.
They are owned.
They're not stolen.
Do you actually use thosesupplies to clean your home
regularly?
Yes, I do.
Define regularly.
(12:23):
Define regularly.
Like, it's a plan.
Every six months, I cleansomething.
I think you have to define it,it's a problem.
Do you own a tool set ortoolbox?
Gideon (12:32):
I do.
Ashton bought me one.
And I use it.
Ashton (12:37):
Do you have a tool set?
I have a multi, I have a multitool.
Gideon (12:42):
No.
And Alan Key.
Yeah.
Ashton (12:44):
I think maybe it does.
Cause you can do, look atMacGyver.
Go ahead.
Gene.
I don't like this next question.
I was given like a.
A hammer and a screwdriver andall that stuff from, from one of
the people in the wood.
There you go.
You got it.
Hammer and screwdriver.
That's all you got.
That's all you need.
Everything's in now.
Okay.
Do you have a good idea of whatyou want to do with your life?
(13:06):
Sure.
That's a loaded question.
Why not?
That's a loaded question.
Gideon (13:10):
I could get.
Ashton (13:13):
Oh.
I mean, how long term are wetalking?
Gideon (13:16):
Your life.
Ashton (13:18):
Gene, Gene, you've got to read the next one.
This is good.
Yeah, Gene, read this question.
This will be fun.
I want to know what justhappened earlier today.
Gene (13:26):
27.
Ashton (13:29):
Do you do your own taxes or pay a professional to do
them, as opposed to asking yourparents?
In my defense, I never asked.
Mom just did it.
I
Gideon (13:41):
don't have taxes.
Also, to be fair, your
Ashton (13:45):
taxes are really easy right now, I'm sure.
Incredibly easy.
How easy were they, Gene?
You just listened to mom, didn'tyou?
I mean
Gideon (13:55):
Can I say I do my own taxes?
Ashton (13:57):
It was very easy for me.
You haven't done any taxes.
I pay somebody to do mine.
So I could click yes.
I do my own.
Do you ever write vaguesubtweets or other petty social
media posts?
No.
Are the vague ones where, like,you go, I don't want to disclose
personal problems on Facebook,but I'm frustrated.
(14:19):
Vague is like, is when someoneposts, like, had a really bad
day, and that's like it.
Oh, gotcha.
Well, what if I showed a pictureof my car, had a really bad day,
and then showed the caraccident?
That's still baiting, becausethey're gonna be like, what
happened?
What'd you do?
That's a good point.
Well, I felt pretty dumb.
I asked somebody if they knew agood divorce lawyer on Facebook
and then went, wait a second,I've got to clarify a buddy
(14:41):
asked.
Now this one's truly asking fora friend.
So I took down the post rightafter I did.
I'm like, that's not good.
That's that's vague and baiting.
I'm going to post, Hey, my dad'slooking for a divorce lawyer.
Anyone, we found somebody, Ifound somebody to help my
friends.
Got to be careful how you askthose.
That's a good thing.
You don't have that problembecause this quiz is not helping
you.
(15:02):
29.
Do
Gideon (15:05):
you have a savings account?
It still counts if it's kind ofempty.
I'm saved by that secondsentence.
Let's go.
There's money in it.
What if my savings account haslike 10 cents in it right
Ashton (15:16):
now?
It says it's kind of empty.
It still counts.
It still counts if it isn't.
Gideon (15:22):
Even if it's kind of empty.
Ashton (15:23):
I like, I like 30.
Do you have dry clean onlyclothes?
That you actually take to thedry cleaners.
Actually, yes.
Alright.
I don't take them very often,but I have taken them.
Gene, we, I remember we tookyours to the, go ahead.

Yeah, I was gonna say, like, Ithink we did take one of my
suits to a dry cleaners.
(15:44):
It, it was done.

It's not done often, but we didit.
Are you often late getting tothe airport for flights?
No, I am not.
I have never been, actually.
Gideon (15:58):
Yep, me neither.
Because dad's like we're gonnaget there three hours early.
Ashton (16:01):
Oh, i'm definitely the dad on on the geico commercial
or whoever that is I'll staywhoever Not a good commercial if
I can't remember what it's for.

Ashton (16:19):
I'm not picky when it comes to food So i'm just gonna
go with yes.
I love broccoli, which
Gideon (16:23):
is the next question.
Yeah.
Ashton (16:24):
Yeah number 33 Broccoli
Gideon (16:28):
Yes, I like that.
Ashton (16:29):
34, have you ever cooked a meal for more than two people
before?
Yes, I have.
Any of you guys that had to dothe scouting merit badge had to
cook for more than two, so.
Scouts, belled you out.
Heard that.
Gideon, your ramen that you madefor the family doesn't count.
Gideon (16:44):
I'm sorry, it does.
It
Ashton (16:45):
does, but now the next question wouldn't.
Have you ever cooked somethingentirely from scratch with no
pre made boxed components?
Yes, I have.
Sir?
Gene (16:56):
Yes, I have.
I believe that tortilla wouldcount
Ashton (17:00):
as a, as a pre made component.
What if I made
Gideon (17:05):
pasta?
Ashton (17:06):
Did you make pasta?
I didn't make the noodle.
Well then that's, that's notfrom scratch.
Wait, wait, hold on.
That's a pre made component.
If I made mac and cheese.
So what, what would, yeah, thatwould still be pre made because
of mac and cheese.
No, not from the box.
Yeah.
Gideon, Gideon.
The noodles have to be made.
It's like saying you made aburger, but there's the bread
(17:29):
that wasn't, you didn't make.
Noodles don't just appear, dude.
It's still one of thosecomponents that can't be made.
You can't
Gideon (17:33):
say you made a steak or something if you bought the
steak.
Ashton (17:38):
I killed the deer.
I cooked the deer.
Oh, I made tacos, but the groundbeef was already ground.
No, but see, look.
The thing is, is like, a noodle,like, is not just a noodle.
Like, a steak is a steak.
It's just one solid piece ofmeat that came off of an animal,
but a noodle is flour and eggand spices that's been cooked
(18:01):
and mixed and rolled and shaped.
Whereas like a steak, you justcut it off and fry it.
Gideon (18:09):
That's two steps.
Ashton (18:11):
And then, you'd also have to make the seasonings,
like, blend the seasoningsyourself.
You couldn't just, like, cookit.
Throw Tony's on top of it formaking a salt.
He's actually helping you.
You're just he's actuallyarguing your point get in You're
so angry.
You don't hear it.
You're just salty.
You've never made noodles andthat's fine I can say I have
(18:32):
done this you made spices geneand I've made jerky before I've
made ruse I count like I've I'vemade a gumbo counts to gumbo
count From scratch.
So that's So you threw the rice.
I just, no, I'm just kidding.

together in some ways, but mightlack the life experience to know
it all.
