Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to another episode of I Tell You What.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I didn't sleep well last night, man, I see the champ.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
The night before, I had a ninety eight on my
sleep score.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
A sleep score last night I didn't like because I
know the other night of his names.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
It'll probably be No, I don't know, it'll probably be great. No.
I just I slept good. I just got up super early.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
I think it's when my dog gone kid is going
to bed. He goes to bed like one thirty eight,
one of them, Yeah, one thirty eight this morning, and
he's and he's loud, and you know he's in the bathroom.
Their bathroom is the kids bathroom is right next to
our bedroom, and they clanking around.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I gotta do something about those drawers.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Those drawers like they but do they like do you
realize you're right on the other side of this wall.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
They've got to think about that a little bit.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
No, not really.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
No, it depends on how their gaming went. I think
if their gaming went well, maybe they're more considerate. If
they're gaming didn't go well, they don't care about anything.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yes, they're laying waste to the war.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
That's not your fault, they I just well, no, it's not.
But you have such good, respectful nice Yet they are wonderful.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
They are really good kids.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
They are, but they're sometimes oblivious and like two in
the morning, it's like, oh, everybody's awake because I'm awake.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's like, no, not everyone's awake because you're awake. Just loud.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
How often have you talked to them about this?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
About six hundred times a day. Oh, I gotta do
something with the drawers. I gotta get you know, do
something with the kids. I should just put them downstairs,
but the kids. Those people lock their kids downstairs sometimes. Yeah, yeah,
I could do that.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Tain them to the radiator.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Okay, now that's a little experience. Chain them to the radiator.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
And then summer special. No, anybody that is kids that game.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
They're up late.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
That's when they all game. They all get together in game.
That's cool, but it's wonderful. But they're loud. And then
you hear them. You hear this pounding on the on
their whatever desk that they they're pissed off at call
of duty or whatever.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
I get it. They can be pissed, but gaming is
one of those things that should be a quiet weight,
should be.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Cont there's nothing quiet ask you play. There's nothing quiet
about it. Oh, there's nothing you can try to be.
It's physical, it's it's I think a kid playing or
anybody playing a playing Call of Duty or Rainbow six
Seeds or whatever it is that everyone's playing. I think
they are louder than what's going on in their headphones.
And the problem is they wear headphones, so they really
(02:35):
loved because they don't know how loud they're pounding on
a desk where they're pissed.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I keep I see, and if they're listening through headphones,
it should be one of those things that they can
do without waking up the whole house.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
This is bad parenting, It's what this is. This is
me just I'm pretty sure exhausted. I get great kids,
and my kids are outstanding.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
I love my children.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
They really are, for the most, very respectful to everybody
but me. No, they're very respectful. It's just they get
in the game. Man, if they lose that. Our house
is so freaking small. We don't have a we don't
live in a big, ostentatious home. We're in this shoe
box and everything travels and it's and I turned a
fan on.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I had all the stuff going on.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
I just think that if I did that in the
middle of the night and was super loud and it
was waking up my dad, who did do morning radio,
I'm pretty sure that we'd have like the PlayStation or
whatever we're playing on taken away.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Well, no, now you're shaming me.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I'm shaming you. I'm not shaming you. I'm worried about you.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
And it's it's a PC. They all play on a
piece take.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Then they take the PC away.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Download LimeWire, LimeWire.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
If you don't have a computer to do.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I had to just I could just hit the internet.
I could just I just couldn't the.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Just if they're going to be like that, just walk
in and take the desktop and leave.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I don't that's too much. It takes too much energy.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, but then it's quiet.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah, we'll have to have another chat again.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Dude, you getting nowhere.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Just wait wait till you wait, Just wait till your kids.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Just wait.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So you have kids, don't wait till you have kids.
They become such little shids.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I totally get sids.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Yeah, there's a d I heard it, but.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I totally get it. It is way easier said than done.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
It is.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
I'm a million percent, because a lot.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Of times I do sleep and I'm okay, and then
there's certain times, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
And then when they win. You can't win when they
win either because they're all excity because they win.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
I just think if they're going to do that, they
there has to be some reasonableness to this, Like if
it's in the middle of the night, you're providing for
the family, getting up for a job really early.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Sometimes you're just happy.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
And I sometimes I literally when I try to think
at the brighter side of life, right, and I sometimes
think that maybe it's just I'm so happy that there
isn't a cop at my door at two thirty in
the morning.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Say your kids you're doing behind bars right now?
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yes, Well, it could always be worse. That doesn't mean
you don't give them consequence. I know, I know, you know,
you will all be able to coexist better.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Well, why don't you yell at Steph yelling staff? I
start with there.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Well, if she's not affected, then it doesn't matter to her,
not so much. Yeah, but if you're affected, you need
to do something about it. I know, and chatting with
them is not working.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
No, So you think I gotta get physical?
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:13):
No, no, I'm not advocating for me.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
You need to buy a PC and get in the game.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
The last time I tried to do that, they laughed
me out of the game. I just sat there and
every time I respond, they were there to poom. I'd respond, yeah, poom.
I'm like, this is really fun and they're laughing.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
This is so great.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Dad, Dad's playing with us up, teaming up.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Dude, you don't want to team up with me? Ice suck.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I don't care, I don't, I don't I play. I'm
there for the trash Dog brothers.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I grew up in video games when the characters didn't
know where I was.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Now they know where you're at.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
They now they've come a long way, you know what
I'm saying, Like the computer even knows where you're at.
I'm not quite back there with Pawing or pac Man
or anything, but it's come a long long way. These kids,
you guys play Call of Duty and you play all
the Halo Rainbow say, and I used to be.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Really good at Halo.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I was.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I used to just slaughter them at Halo when they
were like seven and eight. And then they get better
and they get better and better and better and I
it's like I get worse, like my reflex reflexes got slower.
And also, I mean I get up at freaking two
thirty three o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
I can't be game in that late at night.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
You should just tell them to start playing the golf game,
the PGA to horror game.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Oh they play that too.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Then they could just sit there and silence.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
And no, they know you know you should hear them
when they have bad shots on that game.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
It doesn't matter. Yes, they are so competitive.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
I just told you know what I'm an advocate for, Like,
the next time you hear something loud, you just walk in,
take it away, leave, go down and have.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Pick up the mistress PC that they have.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
The more inconvenient and big of a deal it is
with me. Just walk out with it and they don't
want to like lock it.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Up in your room.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
I'm gonna do that.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
And I know for if I know for an absolute fact,
Jame's got a buddy that listens. Sam, Sam, I know
you're listening right now. I know you are. You're gonna
pass this fall along too my kids. Yeah, to Tolando
and the other ones, and we're coming. We're gonna be
in the game. Yeah, well no, first I'll be in
the game. Okay, I'm gonna sick dubs on you, but
they're gonna they're gonna school you.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Probably, but I don't care. I grew up in called
Diddy chat rooms when I was twelve. I know how
to hold my own.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
I don't think they're playing that though. I think they're
playing Rainbow Sick.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Yeah, then I'm done.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
And I talked to Jamo last night. I said, are
all these games the same? Plug and play? Like the
weapons the same?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Do you load them?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
He goes absolutely different, He said, every game is entirely different.
It's like, if you're great at Call of Duty, you
could suck it, and you will suck when you start
at Rainbow Sick.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
So I don't know.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Yeah, so what do you want? What do you want
his buddy to warn him about?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I forgot he's getting physical with I'm too tired. No, No,
the his kid.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
How about this? I don't work here.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
You have to do it once and then they'll.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Be like, oh, his computer will not be there when
he comes home from his job when he works with yourself.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
If I don't thinks to be super loud, what it
mean that you just told me to go down and
just time.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
I'm saying, if you hear the pool boom boom boom,
you go in there. No, he knows he's not supposed
to do that.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
I like to be a little more stealth though.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
No, that you have to have that moment where they're.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Like it when they walk in the door.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
My computer's not there supposed to that confrontational moment that
it makes him think a little bit more.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
I disagree. I think that confrontational moment kind of has
an impact.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Guys. But they get such good grades. They really are
good kids.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
That doesn't mean they get to use and abuse your
household and keep you up all hours of the night.
Speaker 2 (08:39):

hope I still know you. Your child is fourteen fifteen.
