wasn't a farm. It was a happy house like two
years ago.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Wait me too, what happened to the years?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
So sad?
Speaker 5 (02:16):

the pet place?

I talked to my mother, who finally told me the truth.
Speaker 4 (02:28):

Speaker 2 (02:29):
I got on the phone with someone who apparently worked
at the pet place where my dog went, and then
apparently they told me the whole time.

I was like, are you sure he went to like
a farm?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Are you sure he went to have it like a
vet or something?

the wherever my dog are. Yeah, I swear they like
this is like where he went. We have all his records.

my parents convinced me that the outside of pickles was
scales from alligators.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Why why?
Speaker 4 (03:56):

I think those people that were told that constantly in
their lives are now that I'll be there in five minutes.
People are never there in five minutes.
Speaker 7 (04:36):
Yes, And then it's also just like you just believe it,
and then you don't understand any concept of time, right,
and then like and then when you.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Start to get older, you start to do that to people.
But without knowing it.
