(00:00):
Hi, it's Brittany and Windsor andyou're listening to Thanks I Hate It,
a bi weekly social commentary podcast wheretwo friends shoot the shit about social issues
ferotiated on suspecting targets or suspecting likethese hoes. Yeah, sometimes they know
and they just don't care. Andthat's fine. They can do whatever,
you know, that's their problem.Time and we have time like well,

(00:23):
actually we don't have any time,but but I'll make it if I have
to. Exactly, they will findthe right one on the wrong day or
the wrong one on the right day, depending on how you say it,
or the wrong one on the wrongday because you really pissed a bitch off,
that's true. And drink from thebottom shelf. So so today we

(00:56):
are taking what I thought was goingto be an easy, breezy, beautiful
traits through the easy breezy copper girls. Yeah, I thought you did early
two thousands. Yeah, what didyou do? I did all of the
like the ten, like the zeros, the zeros to the tens, like
I ended in two thousand and nine. Okay, me too. Okay,

(01:21):
I think we stopped at two thousandand five, did we not? If
we did at least I did morethan not a no early two thousands,
I meant like pre two thousand andten, so you know, communications wild
time. There was a really wildtime. And literally of the early two
thousands, I get triggered every timeI walk into a fucking target. We

(01:46):
walked so you could run and insteady'all motherfucker's crawl and bring back the clothes
that we tried really hard to leavein the past. Literally, the only
thing that I really am was superexcited to see make a comeback for butterfly
clips. Yes, that's okay,and um like holographic nails, m hm,

(02:07):
but we can leave the Valor jumpsuitsand the pleather suits please, Nane
of y'all's Missy Elliott. It ain'tgonna work, okay because she don't even
be wearing that anymore, she said, I've moved up m and on.
You know, it'd be different ifthey took the style and elevated it,

(02:27):
but no, no, they sameclothes. And we're getting to the point
where I'm waiting to see a comebackof Jingo. Yep. That well,
that's that's on the way. Itis on the way. I've started to
see wider and wider leg jeans.And let me tell you, guys,
nobody rocked a pair of Jingo wildeleg jeans like your girl, and nobody

(02:50):
had water up to their knees.Knees. Listen, your girl, there's
a reason why we like boot cupsand skinny legs because they don't drag in
the water and they don't get rippedup on the cuffed on the bottom.
Because that's dirty. It gets Itgets your clothes, your nice shoes dirty.

(03:12):
It gets your fucking new uptowns dirty. And then guess what it makes
your socks wet. It makes yoursocks wet. And if you've ever walked
around all day at school with wetsocks and wet bottom of your pants,
you know, you know that itwas one of the most But you know
what's resting. If they want tomake these bad decisions, they're more than
welcome to make these bad decisions.But we are here to not talk about

(03:34):
the bad decisions, but talk aboutthe tops of suck. Yes, we're
not talking about the bottoms, nobottoms and no verses, just the tops.
Yet we're just talking about the tops. We're talking about the top events
that happened in the early two thousands, So two thousand to two thousand and
nine. Um, I considered doingtwo thousand and ten, but I said,

(03:57):
that's the tens tens down, bitch. That's how I talked to myself.
So I'm gonna bring us in.I'm gonna tell you a little bit
about and when I say a littlebit, I'm telling you guys, I
did not do much research. Idid not either. So it is the
Bear Base everage episode. It is, and I literally just I put shorthand
basically, just so I knew whatI was saying. Brilliant, brilliant.

(04:21):
So we're gonna go with two thousandsor the year to two thousand and the
number once the year that the worlddidn't fall apart because of Y two.
Kid was in the fifth grade.Boy, you were not in the seventh
grade. Hope it doesn't. Iturned. I was in um ninth grade

(04:46):
in ninety nine to two thousand.What Yeah, I graduated middle school in
ninety nine, so I was inninth grade when the seventh grade. So
you were in seventh grade. Probablythat makes sense, So we're gonna go
with it. I was in probablyabout the seventh grade, and the number
one song was breathed by Faith Hill, and I actually don't like that song,

(05:10):
and so I looked at the numbertwo songs, which was smoothed by
sant Antana and Rob Thomas. That'sstill a fucking bob it is, but
I also don't love it, andso I went for the third one.
The third one was Maria Maria,Maria Maria, That's my fucking song.
So we went basically through the topthree. Despite not being in those top

(05:33):
three songs. The number one artistof that year was in Sync. Of
course, obviously I would have killedfor them at that time in my life.
Oh and that also Pubescent days.Absolutely, I was real down bad
for Justin Timberlake. And that's reallyprobably one of the things that I've thrown

(05:55):
the most as as a person,because he really was the ass of in
Sync. Let's be honest, absolutelyabsolutely, he really ruined our lives.
Yeah, and he wasn't even thebest singer, he wasn't even the top
four in the top four, andhe was just yeah, he was just
the prettiest. He was the prettiesthe was. And here's the thing,

(06:16):
Um dresses for Jac because jac wasthe fucking goat of that ship. He
carried that and he carried it.But they all except we're just talking about
the four main players here, nottalking about Justin like Lance that bass like
Lance, Uh, Joey and Chris. Have you actually heard them sing by

(06:42):
themselves? No, because we gotstuck with a lot of Justin Like they
can fucking sing, which makes sensein sync like yeah, so they were
both on the mass singer and youcan hear them boasting and there. Oh
but yeah, so yeah, thisis not an InSync episode. We could
quickly turn it into a boy bandepisode, but we're not going to do

(07:02):
that. We will do that oneday. Um. For movie, the
highest curtsing movie of two thousand wasMission Impossible, to which I did see
in theaters. I think theaters.I did not. I did see it.
I still haven't seen it. Theyou of these movies and theaters,

(07:24):
I only did the top one.No, no, no, I mean
in the rest of my groups,like the rest of my years, I
did too. I did too.I'm gonna be I'm gonna be for real
and yeah, be fucking for real, be so fucking for real right now,
Britnan fucking for real all right?In sports Ship after being out for
four years due to fucking cancer.Mario Lemier, I think that's the same

(07:48):
returned to the Pittsburgh Penguins hockey teamand absolutely slayed. From what I read
people said, that was absolutely magical. Pittsburgh fucking lit it up, which
Pittsburgh is no Philadelphia, but itwas electric. Was the word that was
used across a variety of different becauseyou know, people at one, hockey

(08:11):
fans are the fucking most dedicated fansyou'll ever meet, with the exception of
the Jacksonville Jaguarre fans. If you'veever loved a team that you know is
a full loser, then you knowwhat about hockey in general. Hoey overall,
they don't play like and I don'tgive a fuck if you're Yankees red,

(08:33):
so it doesn't matter you suck TomBrady's dick. No, hockey fans
are the fucking realist, and especiallyeverybody loves a good comeback, and hockey's
really hard, and it's incredibly difficulton the body, and to after you
know, battling cancer for four years, to be able to get back on
the ice, that is insane.I was out with food poisoning and I

(08:58):
could barely move and that motherfucker hadcan sar. I love that for him.
I hope he's doing well. I'mnot gonna look it up. Yeah,
I didn't look it up, andit's probably because I didn't want to.
Right here, I was so scared. Um. And then major event.

(09:18):
So as always, we've got aUS presidential election really ruining our lives.
Um, this was Bush versus Gore, or as I wrote it,
um Gory Bush. Um. Basically, this ship was wild and it came
down to Florida, and this iswhere we really put hanging trads into our
daily lexicon. We didn't know whatwas going on. Ultimately, Um,

(09:41):
the Supreme Court decided we had avery heavily heavily havely right Supreme Court,
which is why there should be nolifetime appointments for anything there. I give
them max eleven years each and thenand it doesn't matter what side of things
you're on. You gotta go.You have to go, Yeah, have

(10:03):
to go. That's why we don'thave what happened when Trump, when Obama
was president and then when Trump waspresident, you know, because then if
they have you know, certain appointments, then they know that Oh guess what,
it doesn't matter because X y Z. Time is up. There's none
of those games being played. Youbuild the seat or you doubt exactly.

(10:26):
And that's ultimately, ultimately how itshould be. It's not how it is
because publicants are assholes. True,this is a momentum. This election really
changed the trajectory of our country andled into a lot of the things that
happened during two thousand and one,which wonder is going to talk about.

(10:46):
I actually have the audacity to searchup notable events in two thousand and one
until I was like, oh wait, when I tell you, when you
asked me if I wanted odd orevens, I was like, one,
I really love an even moment.But I know what would happen to two
thousand one. But that's not toobuild it. So we are not involved

(11:09):
in that. That is not everybodyknows what happened. We don't need to.
You mean you nobody ever forgot?No. I wonder if it's the
huge propaganda campaign that never forget,never forget, bitch. We won't trust
me, We won't. We literallydon't. We can't. Yeah, yeah,
especially those of us that were alive. Yeah, and especially those of
us who lived close to the cityor in the city or those of us

(11:33):
who lost people in that like,guess what, honey, We're not gonna
like I honestly still get kind ofmad at these fucking like gen zers who
are like making nine eleven jokes andI'm like, it'll never not be funny.
It would ever be funny, thankyou, But anyway, sucking one
of the most traumatizing moments never happenedin our lives. Seriously. So two

(11:58):
thousand one, we'll start with thegood stuff. The number one artist was
Janet Jackson, go off Queen m. At first, I didn't know what
it was until I heard the firstthree chords. I was like, yep,
number one movie Harry Potter and theSorcerer's Stone. Okay, I mean

(12:20):
it's valid, but I just hatetalking about anything that has to do with
that. Ho yep. Number onemale athlete Tiger Woods tracka TACKA tacker,
would y'all? Number one female USathlete was Marion Jones, and I forgot
to put what she did? Pleasehold she was a runner? Oh yeah,

(12:43):
yeah, yeah she was, Yeahshe did track. I don't know
that, yeah, track and field. And there is two very notable events,
one in pop culture, one inworld culture versus Aliah died. Yeah,

(13:05):
that poor poor girl, like shenever honestly really had a chance.
Yeah, that's her parents were asked, her uncle was asked, like they
let her marry that fucking predator atfifteen years old, Like and I won't

(13:26):
even say, let I fully believethey facilitated it. And that is all
me making things up. I don'tknow, don't sue us, obviously,
you don't know. We don't haveany money. And then like they drugged
her and put her on this planeafter she basically had a panic attack because
she didn't want to get on theplane. Like, seriously, y'all killed

(13:54):
her but took her from the world. Imagine Aliah in twenty twenty three.
She would have been a supervisor.She would have been a fucking superstar.
She wouldn't even have let honestly,she wouldn't let Beyonce get as high as
she was and wouldn't like I'm notnothing against Beyonce, Like, but I'm

(14:15):
saying, please don't come for us. Like Beyonce worked hard to get to
where she is. I'm not sayingthat Aliyah would have easily there. It
would have been a battle. Andyou know what, Aliah would have been
sitting here chilling with all the girls, because she would she would have been
like Whitney, lifting everybody up.And the most notable event of two thousand

(14:39):
and one where there's the attack ofnine to eleven on the World Trade Center,
the Pentagon, and then of coursethe fight that was meant to go,
wasn't it go to the White Housethat they took down the um the
passengers took down. I don't remember. I just yeah, that was a

(15:00):
formative event in millennial life, andwe are not getting into it once again,
changing the entire trajectory theory of everyof the world. So that is
twenty, that is twenty, thatis two thousand and one. Yeah,
I struggled with that also, andI definitely I literally wrote twenty twenty one,

(15:22):
uh huh and a bunch of spaces. Listen. We can only do
what the fuck we can do,all right, we can only do what
we can do. So going intotwo thousand and two, um, the
top song was how You Remind Meby Nickelback. I hate this song,
so number two Foolish by Ashanti absolutelybanger, followed by just Because I liked

(15:46):
these songs too. Um Hot inher. I'm so saying hot in her
and Aalemma literally on a daily basis, Like literally two thousand and two killed
it in music. It was Yes, I literally sing both of those songs
on a daily basis because they likea lyric will pop or the hook will
pop it in my head or ifI get hot, second it be hot

(16:10):
in here. Yeah, the secondI get a little hot, I'm like,
it's getting hot in here. Iused to like to throw a good
gracious asses about dacious out there.Um, dress for a little flavor.
Um. The number one artist oftwo thousand and two was you two.
Um, I'm not that. Ohthat wasn't when the iPhone wasn't out yet,

(16:30):
So of course, I literally reallythis the year that they put their
fucking album on everybody's iPhone, likeand then you put it, you might
put it, and then that wasaudacity. That was real audacity, because
I know we didn't have no fuckingdata, no memory in those goddamn phones
years to get that out of mine. Do they just recently apologize for that?

(16:52):
Yeah, they did sometime last year, thank you, because that was
fucking rude, honestly, and Idon't even think goes up to them.
It was Apple. It was Apple. It was Apple. But it was
the fact that it was, youknow what, they have to be scapegoaded.
It was their fucking Bolst album thatwas on my phone. It wasn't
even a good I did not listento it out of just neither did I.

(17:14):
It was like, I didn't inviteyou here exactly. So event um,
literally just after getting into two thousandand two, the Boston Globe absolutely
eate the Catholics up by dropping theirpriest pedophilic sex scandal into everyday life.
It is the reason that still tothis day we discuss creepy Catholic priests and

(17:40):
the fact that they still are creepyand nothing. Well, yeah, that's
you. Because did you see thatfucking documentary where the one who was like
fucking raping all those boys was justreassigned quote unquote to Ireland where and they
filmed him in this documentary sitting rightoutside of park watching little boys. Disgusting.
But two thousand and two was wildwith that also, apparently because I

(18:06):
didn't know, I copied this partinto my notes. What I'm assuming is
en Ron happened right after that.Oh I remember Enron. That was fucking
wild and people literally died because ofthat, Like there were suicides up by
Like literally it was rough. Enroncosts one hundred thousands of people literally everything,

(18:32):
yes, and there was no gettingit back, just nothing. These
people got to steal just nothing.Um. Next, we've got sports shit.
So NBA player Bison Delay Delay Delaydisappears at sea. He's presumably murdered
by his brother. Never recovered.Um. That was two thousand and two.

(18:55):
It's a rough year for him specifically. Um. And then finally,
the number one movie of the yearwas Spider Man, which I also saw
in theaters with a boy that Ithought I liked, And when I got
there, I was just like,actually he's kind of gross, but it
already bought my ticket. So yeah, that to be fair, eighth grade
boys are He wasn't an eighth gradeboy, that's the thing. He was

(19:18):
like a tenth grade boy. AndI was in eighth grade by so when
I when I was in eighth grade, my first kiss, when I was
thirteen years old, was with aguy who was old enough to drive and
have his own car. You seehow these are problems. That's see how

(19:38):
these are very big problem. Andthen so um, it was so I
forgot I don't think it was thatnight, but like me and my friend
were not with them again because wethought we were cool, like you know,
like these older guys want to hangwith us, and like they were
just being creepy. So it wasfucking freezing and snowing, and we decided
to remember where I used to beBranford, the walmart, so behind there

(20:03):
is a pool hall. We startwalking in the middle of the night in
the snow and ice and jean jackets. We walk six miles before we just
get too cold and we end upcalling her dad to come and get us.
But we didn't really want him toknow where we were. But we
finally told him because like he's like, what the fuck, guys, you

(20:26):
know what's going on? So wetold him what happened, and he's like,
how old are these guys? Andlike we told them, I think
they were like seventeen or some shitlike that. I honestly at one of
them it was eighteen, I think. Mmmmmm. So he gets in the
truck and he goes and picks themup and beats their asses. But that

(20:48):
was two thousand and two mm show. Yeah, so we're just gonna scooter
to two thousand and three, theyear that I graduated high school class oh
through Oh bring u. The topmale athlete was Michael Vick. We all,
Michael Vick is now best known forhis dog fighting ring, which is

(21:12):
wild because here's the thing. He'slike made amends for that, and the
fact that we still talk about itblows my fucking mind. He like did
a bunch of stuff to make itright. But on a crowd No,
absolutely not good. But here's thetop female athlete, Miss Venus Williams.

(21:37):
Oh oh the other one, mmhmm my bad. Can you guess what
the top song was? The bottlefulabove my maca what you Need? That
was the number one song in theclub by half Dollar the number one artist.

(21:59):
Can you guess this one for twothousand and three? Now beyont say?
Will say yon't say? Because thiswas like at the very beginning of
her solo career. Damn, Ididn't realize it's been that long. But
she's just been in it. Yeah, she's been in it. She's been
in it since like I think herthe first thing came out in ninety eight.

(22:23):
Jesus okay, m hm. Thenumber one movie was finding Nemo,
Finding Nemo, still Apop, stilla bop. It is. So I
have two things for two thousand andthree. Both of them are oofs.

(22:44):
A highly infectious disease STARS severe acuterespiratory syndrome spreads from China, Singapore,
and Vietnam worldwide. I don't rememberthis, do you do? You know
how many people died? A million? Nine thousand people are affected from fifteen

(23:04):
countries, and over eight hundred diefrom the effects. Not eight hundred eight
hundred die. Not eight hundred eighthundred people died the first day of COVID.
Yeah, Jesus Christ. And here'san OOF. The Space Shuttle Columbia
disintegrates over Texas upon reentry, killingall seven astronauts on board. So this

(23:30):
is not the Challenger. So theChallenger is the one that we're all familiar
with where it um excoded on takeoffand it was literally being basically live streamed
and classrooms around the country because oneof them was a teacher and her class
was sitting there watching it like theywere they die. Yeah, none would

(23:53):
have noticing We've watched a lot ofpeople die die, Like I wonder how
they're doing, Like the people watchthat happen because I was only one,
so obviously I didn't know that happened. But yeah, so that was two
thousand and three. So and beforebefore I forget, I will say reading
all this shit that happened in theearly two thousands, I do want to

(24:14):
say that with aside from COVID,pretty much everything that's happening is pretty much
on par for what we've been dealingwith. Yeah, absolutely, And the
fact that we have the Internet whilewe're going through it, Yeah, so
we see everything. Yeah, likewhat before the internet, Like at two
thousand and three, I didn't evenhave a cell phone yet. I didn't

(24:37):
get it Nokia until the end oftwo thousand and three, so like now
everything is in the palm of ourhands. Like there's only like three videos
of nine to eleven happening because peopledidn't have cell phones like that, and
if they did, and if theydid, there was no cameras in them.
Like the things that happened were peoplewho are happy to like record the

(25:00):
World Trade Center or because or likethe people who were having a party and
we're just on their camcorder fucking around. See it happened in the background,
like yep, Like nowadays we'd belike, what the fuck is that play
doing introphone out? This might besomething later, Yeah, don't run or

(25:21):
anything. Yeah, we'll see howit goes. Never run. But yeah,
so that was That was two thousandand three. Um, I will
say two thousand and four is alittle bit lighter. My two thousand and
five isn't. But go ahead,okay, so we're gonna go into two
thousand and three. Eight it wasa little bit lighter. So yeah,

(25:41):
by Usher and the Boys was thenumber one. Yeah, yeah, I
still jam that ship too all thetime. Usher actually had a great year
that year, so he also hadBurn Confessions Part two and My Boom Come
Back Back Years and was my fuckingsong. Honestly though, like the Confessions
bullshit pissed me off. I waswe were supposed to feel bad for him.

(26:03):
He was out there. I feltplease and bolden to tell somebody I
was cheating on them, even thoughit wasn't happening. I'm just like every
still I still to this day,I'm like, I like, I love
my girl and you're pregnant, Like, well, if you loved her,
why were you fucking around, youstupid bitch. But bringing that back around,
when COVID started in the school startedclosing, and people were using that

(26:26):
song as like the moment they gotthe call from the school, I'm gonna
find the tiktoks and send them toyou. Classic classic. Um. We
also got Toxic by Britney Spears,which wasn't even close to being a top
song. So it's literally a classbecause classic it is best because the gays
weren't, like, weren't bopping toit yet they're bopping to it now.

(26:48):
They weren't gay yet, well theywere, No, they weren't, um
all in the club. We don'tmake me teach you about I know that
you can. I'm gay and gaybefore I know. I'm just saying like,
we weren't really in the club yet. Well fifty cent was. But

(27:08):
but listen, the early two thousandswere different fucking time. Okay, they
may not be that long ago,but they were a fucking different time.
They apparently were more recently than theeighties, though both of them are twenty
years ago. Just so yeah,yeah, like how people were born in

(27:29):
the nineties were fucking turning thirty whenI literally just babysat them last week exactly,
So I don't know what they're talkingabout the artists of this year was
Kenny Chestney. The actual artists ofthe year. Thing that I use kind
of sucks, dick, Like noneof them are great. I honestly,
some Google searches were amazing and theother ones were asked. Yeah, I

(27:52):
used the one that was asked,and that's fine. Um. The events
that I chose was Martha Stewart becomingboth a felon and America's Gangs to Sweetheart
by going to prison for insider trading. I absolutely only one of her her
friendship are a convicted felon. Thatone may have been a child for a
burner, but only one's a convictedfelon, literally, and it's my girl

(28:17):
Martha. Also, I forget shedid a roast stuff, but she did
a roast and she talked about hertime in prison in it, and I
was like, when you went toa super fancy prison, but also that
shit's hilarious. Like Martha Stewart becominga felon. She went from America's Sweetheart
to Gangs to Sweetheart and Gangs toSweetheart one. I love the fact that
like they have those like lighters orwhatever that like she's like low Key is

(28:41):
still like for me too. Oh, we've all embraced Martha and listen,
I still rock with Martha because youknow what, she remains unproblematic. She
minds her fucking business. We don'tknow her personal viewpoints because she minds her
fucking business and she but honestly,she rocks with Yeah, and she rocks

(29:03):
with Snoop. I highly doubt thatshe's like this fucking crazy trump nut because
you know she can't be, becauseSnoop is also like besties with fucking um
Willie Nelson like, and Snoop Dogdoes what he wants. The Stewart like
I love this track, does whathe wants and he doesn't need the money,
so it's not like he would bedoing this like mash up or like

(29:26):
this partnership if he didn't want toexactly here he does wants and he's just
he and himself is so unproblematic andlike I cannot and the Snoop he has
a whole like cartoon and how they'redoing that. I love that, but

(29:48):
it's just like can you but he'sstill you. Old Brittany needed that Snoop
because he's still the same old Snoop. He could have never imagined, never
imagined that this was a stupid we'regonna get and I I love it personally.
Um sports shit. So there iswhat is known as the Malice at
the Palace, which was an NBAfight that broke out between the Pacers and

(30:10):
the Pistons that was so big thatmultiple players had to be suspended and the
game was never actually completed because theyhad to shut that shit down. That's
how intense that shit was. Andthe number one movie was Shrek two,
which I did not see in theaters. Why did not see that in theaters

(30:30):
either? But I watched many times. Yeah. I was being grown at
that time. Oh yeah, grownas fuck. Uh So two thousand and
five is a good year for Brittanybesides no, besides the fact that it

(30:51):
was the year that your arch Nemisidewere born. Issa, No, I
knew who you were talking about.That. Yeah, that was my daughter's
birth. The number one artist wasMiss Mariah Carey and the number one song

(31:12):
was we Belong Together. We BelongedTogether, So she had two number one
hits on the Billboard one hundreds.She spent fifteen weeks at the top of
the Billboard charts that year. Damnm hm. Soria Carry has been in

(31:34):
the game for four different decades.I had her first CD before her boob
job. Me too. I loveMariah Carreen. I still love her.
Top male athlete is Lance Armstrong.Was a Lance Armstrong so the female I
guess she won this like essay Essayaward. I don't know which is where

(31:57):
the rest of them, like therest of the year is. I just
picked whoever won these awards, andthat's who was the top athlete. Oh,
that's what I did for all ofmine. So it is Annika sore
Stomp and she played golf. Okaygirl, Yeah, I don't have any
other information. The number one moviewas Star Wars Episode three, Revenge of

(32:17):
the Sixth. Okay, I didsee that at theaters. I think maybe
I don't know. I probably didn't. And do we remember the major event
in the United States of America thathappened in two thousand and five? Okay,
for everybody aheading US stimulus checks.George Bush hates black people. I

(32:43):
can't believe I forgot about Hurricane Katrina. Mhmm, that's why we got stimulus
checks. Oh, I believe Iforgot about Hurricane Katrina. No, we
didn't get certain stimulus checks. FO. We got that because the economy was
asked. But yeah, my god, yeah that was Hurricane Katy. Did
we need to never forget hampaign aboutHurricane katran it because that damn shit forgot

(33:05):
about that shit. I still andyou know what, when when our kids
are learning about this, you knowwhat they're not learning about how basically they
like the white kid, the whiteguys were defending their property, which is
sits higher up on the flip planesagainst the black people that may have been,

(33:27):
you know, trying to just getto dry land, and they were
shooting them out of the truck.They're basically like duck hunting, for lack
of a better term, with theseany black person that they saw that didn't
belong on their land, because whyin a disaster would we not Nobody said

(33:49):
open your homes, but they're onthe fucking street, they're not even on
your property. Well, and itis all the shit that fucking yeah,
yeah, it was a mess.It's still George. People did hate black
people. Here's the thing that wasthe one time Kanye West sounded pretty lucid
to me. I love that.Two thousand and six, the year that
I graduated high school. That isnot the event. The event is actually

(34:13):
that sources say my child was born. I didn't even try to look for
an event for two thousand and six. I literally just put Jales. But
let me see, I'm gonna look. I'm gonna look. Okay, Yes,
thousand and six. Life of twothousand and six major because I just
I'm curious before we see what elsewe fucking forgot. Oh yeah, I'm

(34:35):
fucking shoot because I'm scared as fuck. Um. Headlines in two thousand and
six were marked by death, scandaland politics. See this is why I
don't want to look into it.Yeah, we're just gonna let it go.
Yeah, death scandal and politics.You heard all that depression, depression,

(34:59):
depression, all right, and yougot two thousand and eight. Oh,
I got some shit to talk aboutin two thousand and eight. It's
not what you think it is,though, it's I got some other shit
to talk about. Um. Sothe song number one song is Bad Day
by Daniel Porter. I hate thatfucking song. So the number two song
was Temperature by Sean Paul. Ikind of like that song. It's a

(35:19):
pretty good dance song. Um.We also got Ride and dirty. I
still sing that song alright, catchMe Ride and Nerdy literally a moment in
history, um so, which isall about to say, like, yeah,

(35:42):
so pleae. I loved that fuckingalbum like Ponder replay is like on
my lage on the replay is thesong. It is a fucking bob And
I'm low key disappointed that she didn'tlike do a nod to like of those
first Sea songs. Yeah, that'swhat a lot of people said. Um
I didn't. I never watched,so I don't honestly, just a fucking

(36:06):
line, just like a you know, do the dot bombery you play and
then do you like an s soWest and then just go into it.
When I took amazing, all ofus old heads would have been like,
oh my god. But we're stilllike is she fat or she pregnant?
Because you know, our eyes aretoo bad, we can't really tell.
Um. We also got I right, Sins not tragedies by Panic at the

(36:27):
disco m That is a classic.The artist of the year was Rascal Flats
and so I'm assuming that there wasa Cars movie that came out, probably
Cars one that came out back right, and that's where we got a Rascal
Flats moment from um Sport. Itwas um we finally brought fighting back to

(36:50):
the National Hockey League when Sheldon's Terreyand Darren McCarty got into a fight during
a hockey match or a hockey game. I don't know what it's called.
But prior to then, fighting atreally lost its way in um Oh,
I'm so much happier that it's backnow, right and a lot of people.
I've read so many hockey romances thatI should probably watch a little bit.

(37:13):
It's a niche genre, but forsome reason, they're fucking Bob Okay,
I'm gonna send you one. I'mactually I'm gonna send you one.
It's on kindole and limited. It'sactually it's really good. You know what.
Whatever makes you happy, bitch.Um. And then the movie was
Pirates of the Caribbean dead Man's Chest, which I did see in theaters with
my now husband. At the time, he was just my baby daddy.

(37:35):
Yeah, two thousand and seven.We're almost done, y'all's number Um,
So mine are all out of order, so you're just gonna have to deal.
Literally, I just read mine inwhatever order I feel like. So
the number one movie with spider Manthree okay artists, So well this when

(37:59):
we When I say that I couldn'tfind the number one artist for two thousand
and seven, all I could reallyfind was like the number one of each
genre what really pissed me off?And and then different places said different things.
So I just picked the top threethat most people said was Rihanna,

(38:20):
Some say a con and then somesaid Fergate. I will accept all three
answers. H So, yeah,two thousand and seven was a fucking boss
year for Rihanna boss. And youknow how hard it is for me not
to say Rihanna. Yep, I'mmaking the conscious effort to say her name
correctly. It goes against everything thatmy new England accent stands. The wild

(38:45):
part is that you just listen tome say her name wrong, like fifteen
times. Didn't say ship that Iwasn't ship I was Honestly, I didn't
even notice friendship over. Could youimagine? You imagine? And then I
would still come to your house nextweek and be like, why you are
speaking? Oh but you got mefood. Okay, we don't smoke anymore,

(39:12):
so you won't be yelling about cigarettes. I still love how that was
the first time we ever met inperson, and I wasn't smoking at that
time, A narrow divergent, we'redefinitely having a meltdown. Like I was
just like okay, I didn't meltAnd that's how we should have known that

(39:35):
we're both neurodivergent at that time,because you're having a whole ass meltdown.
I'm just like, okay, wecan stop for a cigarette. Like it
didn't even phase me. It didn'twhat is wrong with us? Like you
were honestly being so horrible and thelike when I took and you know how
I take offense to everything, andI didn't take. I was just like
okay, Like I was having afull mental breakdown because I have had plenty

(40:00):
of mental breakdowns after traveling. SoI was like, okay, Like we
can stop and half a cigarette.Do you want to go get something to
eat? Like it's okay. Itwas not okay. I was gonna die
with you know what, Looking backafter we after TikTok and after we learned
our diagnoses, it doesn't lunch moreso much more sense, so much more

(40:21):
sense, and I'm honestly so muchhappier for it. The number one song
Miss Beyonce, you'll say replaceable,bitch. That was my fucking siddleft everything
you own in about left in acloset, that's my stuff. Yes,
if I fall it, then pleasedon't touch Keep talking them mess that's fine,

(40:45):
But could you talk and talk atthe same time. Yeah, it's
my name that's on that jack,So go move your bags. Let me
call you a cap standing the frontdoor telling me how I'm so much a
fool talking about I'm never ever gonnafind a man like you. You gonna
makee me twistad you must not knowabout see two thousand seven amazing. Honestly,

(41:10):
the music that came out in theearly two thousands was like so it
was nineties and early two thousands andthen it kind of knows died like m
anyway, I agree. The malesp winner was hold on to me.
I don't want to butcher this namebecause and I didn't try to pronounce before.

(41:32):
It's a LaDainian Tomlinson, and heplayed football. And the female sp
is to n Ma Watts, andshe played softball. Okay, I love
a good softball bitch. Okay.So this in events, this was the

(41:53):
year that gave us my precious boymy book. And it is also the
year that Apple truly begun their callin earnest with the release of the first
iPhone, which is also the iPhonethat Brittany used when I first met her.
I knew, I fucking knew it. I knew it. That's that's

(42:20):
funny. It's still funny. Andand I still don't be giving up my
fucking iPhones because I'll probably had athirteen until twenty thirty. Listen, I
think I still have a twelve.No, I'm just like I add an
eight, and then I went toa thirteen. No, it actually might
be a thirteen. It definitely nothirteen, but it's definitely not a fourteen.

(42:43):
No, and actually honestly might bea twelve. I don't fucking know.
It still works, it doesn't matteranymore. Yeah, and they're all
the same fucking phone. So onApril sixteenth was the Virginia Tech massacre.
Damn. Yeah. That is whenU shan Hui Cho fatally shot thirty two
people and injured seventeen others. Heused two semi automatic pistols and then killed

(43:07):
himself as police arrived on scene.And this was a turning point in our
psyches at this time, because thiswas when these things still shocked us.
Yeah, very much. So,like did you So there was that shooting
at whatever college it was last week, I mean, which probably one of

(43:30):
many, I think, Yeah,and you know that one of the survivors
of that was also a survivor ofSandy Hook. Get the fuck out of
town, you know what, I'mjust gonna kill myself at this moment,
like I would ever leave my fuckinghouse again. Out of town? You
think I would ever leave my fuckinghouse again. Yeah. There's actually two

(43:53):
survivors of the Michigan State shooting thatwere survivors of another one. So there
was one Oakland or something. Um, yeah, so mind you was just
recently where two of her very goodfriends died and she just survived this.
You know what, I'm gonna justit's hard to get you back, and

(44:14):
you're gonna get up and you're gonnago, oh, I'm an Annaly's kidding,
get out of here, huh Soniceyep. And it's only going to
keep escalating because Republicans love their gunsmore than they love kids. And we
obviously know this because during the Stateof the Union when President Biden was like

(44:34):
let's bring back the child tax credit. Let's do this, let's do that,
And everybody was cheering. And thenyou had McCarthy's bitch ass who was
up there when he's like, yeah, we brought half of them, half
of the kids who are in povertyout of poverty, and he was just
like kids like fuck them, kidslike he they don't give a fuck about
nobody but themselves, Like did yousee this is off topic, but did

(44:58):
you see the fucking publican who hasput in an official whatever they do,
a bill or whatever to disband theDepartment of Education. I'm not surprised.
I probably came out of Mississippi orAlabama because they've been working really hard to
get black kids out of school fora while because there's no constitutional basis for

(45:20):
an apartment of education. Yeah,that's literally what they do. They are
going for it because it is away to push black, brown, and
poor kids out of schools. It'sa way to make sure that kids with
disabilities don't have access to education.It really takes education and like classes it.
Um, yeah, I'm not surprised. And that's the sad part is

(45:44):
that I'm not saying and if Republicanstake over all three places. Guess what's
going to happen. We're not gonnahave aboard of education, We're not having
access to abortion, We're not goingto have access to fair wages. We're
going to be trying to leave thiscountry in mass Yeah, and borders to

(46:05):
other countries are going to close tous because we don't know how to act
in public because we're born race inAmerica. Yep, okay. Two thousand
um our song of the year waslow by flow Writer, still quoting those
apples there was with the bermany misogynisticsongs in the early two thousands, but
ye, feminism, leave my body, my fucking jam to damn. We

(46:30):
also got love Song by Sarah burrellasI Kissed a Girl by Katie Perry,
and the greatest song of all timeDisturbia by Darkness. I was listening to
the greatest song of all time Annaby Rihanna. The artist of the year

(46:54):
was Chris Brown, Like that listwas so bad? Did you see that
he's doing? Yes, I sawall that shit. Of course I've been
watching that drama. Hilarious hilaria Ordid you see how he so you know
I don't fuck with Kylie because orKaylee whatever the fuck her name is,
because she always starts shit, yeahshe does. And then she came out

(47:16):
listen, listen, listen nowhere.She came out of nowhere and he hit
her with the like and you know, she doesn't even have a list.
They made her sound like that becauseshe couldn't sing, and they auto tune
her voice to death. That shitblew my fucking mind. So that's just

(47:37):
I wanted a light skin out.So that makes it funny. That's what
makes it funny, not because shedoesn't have a speech impediment, but because
she's so talentless, that's what.So he's not making fun of a speech
impediment because that would be funny.And the fact that we're siding with the
Chris Brown Brown Listen, I'm notRihanna. I don't give it. She

(48:00):
forgave him. He looked, Andthat's that's one of those things that you
can say about Chris Brown, asthat motherfucker could at least say anyways.
Sports shit, um, Michael Phelpsabsolutely slayed at the two thousand and eight
Olympics and he brought eight gold medalsback home to America. For him,

(48:21):
everybody had a problem with him becausethey found out he smoked weed and had
ADHD like the rest of us,and then like, how could he possibly
be so fast? It's because ofthe weed. Do you not know how
weed works? No? Because theydid the same thing with that running girl
last year. They were like,I can't believe she's no, And people
were like, do you not knowhow marijuana works? Do you know why

(48:45):
he is so fast swimming? Isbecause he has a longer than average arms
fan because he is disabled. Hehas Marfan syndrome, which leads you with
like you're one, you're very veryum like flexible, and you have a
His arm span is as tall ashe is. Mine is as tall as

(49:07):
a two year old, because youhave armspan two year old's arm span.
Yeah, so yeah, so's heis disabled and he still swims laps around,
y'all. Motherfucker's well, and he'shigh and all you mean to do
when you're high is eat and goto sleep. And he's eating wheaties because

(49:28):
them bitch has made him some fuckingmoney. And for the event, I
actually copy and pasted an entire articleinto my notes because I love very wild.
So the event was a worldwide foodshortage that provoked cannibalism in Russia.
So I'm going to read this articleto you. A global food shortistvoked an

(49:50):
incense of cannibalism in Russia and inKiara, Ethiopia. It has led to
severe cases of malnutrition. So thenright, you do what you gotta literally
like that is the strongest if they'realready dead and you're about to die.
Fucking get loft path. We allknow what's happened or past. What we're

(50:12):
supposed to taste likes good, soyou know what, grind me up into
some fucking bacon. But according tothis article, in nations around the world,
there was a real dearth of food, and what food is available is
awfully expensive. Feels like right nowusing food prices are indicative of a new
kind of demand. Harvests are beingturned over to biofuel initiatives, corn and

(50:37):
grain harvests in particular gold mines forbiofuel experiments, and not enough has been
rationed for the people around the world. Well, with diets, you should
not worry about bio whatever they're doing, and take up with the farmers who
are putting profits over people and gettingtheir coin. Oh, they will never

(51:00):
do that because farmers are seeing himas the ultimate lay person when that's just
not reality. It's for the firsttime since the nineteen seventies, the food
shortage is a global scale issue,particularly die there, people go hungry or
become a desperate. In late October, the Moscow Times reported that a homeless
man from someplace I can't name andtwo accomplices were arrested from murdering a man,

(51:22):
butchering his body, frying and eatingit. And wake up call for
the world's agricultural community. Perhaps,but cannibalism can be motivated by more than
dress hunger. Yeah, though it'srare, they probably already had mental illness.
Oh absolutely, that's what they weresaying. Yeah, but also going

(51:45):
to hungry will exacerbate my mental illness. I'm just letting you guys know that
right now. There's a reason whyit's called hungry, and there's a reason
why Snickers has that incredibly accurate.It's very accurate, and that's why every
time hungry, I'd be like,I need to find us Snickers. But
yeah, two thousand and eight,that little event really just shook people the

(52:07):
fuck up because they were just like, oh my god, the food s
scas we're gonna turn into cannibals.And now look at us. Oh my
god, the food's so expensive.We might have to be hannibals at this
point. Seriously, I mean,we're cannibalizing some baby chickens, baby eggs.
So we're bringing. I'm bringing.I'm ending the early two thousands,

(52:30):
but two thousand and nine it wasa rough here at it it actually,
I there's only one kind of negativething. Obviously bad should happened. Don't
get of course all the time.But um, I'm gonna end it on
a high note. So the numberone movie was Harry Potter and the Half
Blood Prints go Off. The numberone song can you guess? Oh my

(52:58):
Kurt Hummel single Ladies. Yeah.The artist, the top artist of two
thousand and nine was the Black EyedPeas and the Black Eyed Peas. It
was a big year for them.Yeah, that was their year, their
only year, their only year,but yet they seem to still be everywhere.
But yeah, that was like theiryear's number one boom boom. So

(53:23):
the number one athlete Britney, Ithink you might know a little something about
Michael Phelps. Michael Phelps, that'smy homie. The number one late athlete
is Nastasia Ludkin, who was fromRussia for gymnastics. She was a geminist.
Okay, so I'm gonna do.I have three things for events for

(53:47):
two thousand and nine. One wasn'tso great. The other two were fucking
cool. Okay, I have anevent to add. If you don't add
this event, go for The onethat's not so great was H one in
one, which was the swine flu. That was rough. That was when
we first started having to wear masksin hospitals. You want to HI know

(54:12):
that. No, that's not whatI was gonna say. I completely forgot
that. In two thousand and eightwe elected a black president. Oh I
still got stuff to say, shutup, sir, So H one N
one. So we had to startwearing masks for the first time in a
hospital because I had a kidney infectionthat was really really bad and I ended
up being admitted and I had towear a mask while I was in the

(54:36):
hospital. Well, in common areas, if I was in a common eyor,
I had to wear a mask becauseuntil they ruled out H one in
one, right, So this wasfucking badass. On January fifteenth, two
thousand and nine. The Chelsea soChelsea Sullenburger landed the US air waste flight

(54:57):
number fifteen forty nine on a HudsonRiver successfully after a malfunction. Damn girl.
The malfunction was caused by a damagedairbus A three twenty, which could
have literally killed everybody. All onehundred and fifty five passengers survived the flight
and were led to safety after landing. Yeah, I'm pretty so there's a

(55:24):
movie about this Sully. You've everseen that movie? So? Oh God?
Who played I think it's honestly,I want to say, silly Tom
Hanks. I want to say it. No, it was Tom Hanks.

(55:45):
Yeah, Tom Hanks played Sully.Yes, and Michael Malley wasn't it Michael
Marley, Yes, he wasn't it. I guess I'll be watching this.
Yeah, it's actually a really goodmovie, and it's a pretty good um
Basically, it's a really good retailof what happened that day. And because
of his superior skills in being apilot and piloteering or whatever you want to

(56:07):
call it, every single person wenthome that day. I love that.
And piloteering, as you know,an emergency landing on water could break the
plane in a half easily. Yes, so you should watch it. It's
actually a really good movie. Andyou know, I don't really care for
movies like that. That's it,yep, Okay, So yeah, of

(56:31):
course there was an investigation everything,but there has to be anytime there is
an emergency landing or anything like that, there's an investigation. But yeah,
he because the biggest thing was isthat they were thinking that it went down
or it started to go down becauseof pilot error, and even if it

(56:52):
was his error, he fixed it. Yeah, But they turned out it
wasn't his error. It was atmalfunction on the plane. So yeah.
And two thousand and nine, ourfirst black president took the oath of office.
Brittany forgot to mention that the firstblack president won the election side by

(57:17):
a fucking a stick. Really,you. I remember that day clearly.
I remember people screaming because they werealready calling it because it was so overwhelmingly
him. People were still in lineon the West coast, and since they
were already trying to call it,people were trying to leave line because like

(57:37):
no, no, no, don'tleave, don't It was already like two
hours after the poll closed. That'show many people were out voting, and
people are literally yelling don't leave,don't leave because they were only projecting his
win because of California. M ohsh it was crazy. And then so
like I had a friend who wasworking at Walmart overnights at the time,

(57:59):
So I was basically like texting hereverything that was happening because obviously she couldn't
and it be in two thousand andnine. It's not like we've had a
phone where we could like on awrist where we could look, you know,
Walmart. So I told her,I was like, he won,
he won, And so she popson the speaker on the like the Walmart
thing and attention Walmart workers, wehave our first black president. H Yeah,

(58:27):
Like that was crazy. And ifI could have been partying in the
streets, I would have. ButI wasn't hammed in Connecticut, and there
was I was in the boonies,like listen, yeah, so I also
couldn't party in the streets. Butum, yes I did forget about our
just you know, amazing, amazingyear in two thousand and eight, I

(58:47):
stood in line to vote for twoand a half hours. I sent that
to vote, but it was onlyfor a couple of minutes. And that's
not because, like you know,Connecticut actually believe in voting laws, and
they have enough voting places for everyonewho normally votes normally votes, but a

(59:09):
voter turnout was so astronomical that theydidn't have If everybody voted like that,
Connecticut would have so many more votingcenters. Oh, absolutely absolutely, But
that was not the instance I wasgoing to tell you about. In two
thousand and nine, what happened.I can't believe you forgot about this.
I probably didn't. I probably justdidn't look at it. In two thousand

(59:31):
and nine May, Oh no,we got our very first episode of Glee.
And that's what you missed on Glee, and that's what you missed.
I didn't start watching Glee until Ithink it was already into the second It
was already to the second or third. No, Blane was already on it

(59:52):
when I started watching it. Andwhat happened was it was on Netflix or
some shit. And that was whenI fel like, you could still get
DVDs and we couldn't get any moreDVDs because we already had the ones out,
and I was like, I wasbored, and I was like,
Oh, I'm gonna watch this,that's exactly and it happened. Now it

(01:00:13):
was like two thousand eleven. Iwant to say it was like two thousand
eleven because Sophia, you know howmuch she loved music. Yep, she
was learning. She was like tryingto learn the songs and she was like
one or something like that. Yeah, and I was like, oh,
let me watch this, and fromlike the second episode, because season one
of Glee was fucking phenomenal. Yeah, it's a completely different show than the

(01:00:37):
rest of the series because you knowwhy, because it was what it was
supposed to be. Yeah, itwas a satire. If they kept it
as a satire and they just keptsucking tier, it would have still it
would still be on and it wouldstill be another thing to make fun of.
And honestly, you, so thisis how I grew a person from

(01:01:00):
glay, So you grew as aperson. Yes. So at first I
hated Santana and I hated Sue.By the end, those were my two
fucking favorite characters because they were theonly ones that mattered. So yeah,
so, man, the early twothousands were fucking ride. They were right

(01:01:23):
and looking at this shit really mademe like, oh wow. So besides
COVID, like I said before,all this shit is pretty normal. Like
everybody's like, oh my god,this is the end of times. And
I'm like, we literally did thisten years ago, literally will do this
ten years from now. Like honestly, that's really why, Like I'm not

(01:01:45):
really stressing about this shit anymore.And it could be because of all the
vitamins and supplements I'm taking regrow myhair and guess what, there's a new
hair coming in who Yeah, SoI just if it happens, it happens.
But this is nothing new. Russia'salways doing some dumb shit. There's

(01:02:09):
always something happening, China's always fuckingassholes. North Korea's always on some bullshit.
So like, like I just refusedto stop living. It's not like
I'm ever going to actually be ableto retire. So I'm just gonna my
life and enjoy it. Yeah,and I'm gonna enjoy it as I go
because guess even if I did saveup all the money in the world,

(01:02:30):
you can't take it in the afterlife, regardless of if I die because the
world ends or I die of oldage. Listen, I just need somewhere
chill to lay my head for awhile until the ride is over. Yeah,
so that was their two thousands.I'm gonna bring us out and then

(01:02:50):
I'm just gonna we'll talk for aminute, especially now that she's not bothering
anymore, because I'm like ye,So that was the early two thousand.
As always, thank you for listening, even though we know it's a few
of you, you know, wejust do it for us. At this
point, this is still our escapismliterally as well. We don't give a

(01:03:13):
shit about editing and like somebody listening, anxiety is gone. Yeah, we're
just having a good time and thisis our excuse to actually talk to each
other, like we have to setourside this time to talk to each other.
Remember that you're that girl, You'rethat bitch, will forever be that
bitch. Drink your water. Changingthe lyrics, I don't fucking know anymore.

(01:03:36):
