Speaker 1 (00:01):
If you're listening to the Jack and Nikki Show podcast
everywhere you get your podcasts and at WBQ dot com,
join Jack and Nicky live weekday mornings from six to
ten on one O two WVAQ.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Let's get to the topic at hand. It's a question
that Nikki Drake actually posts to me off the air,
and I'm not sure what the answer is. I don't
know if anybody knows the answer. But Nikki, what is
the question?

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Is it a red flag?

Speaker 4 (00:35):
If a person has their red receipts turned off on Messenger,
so that means you can't tell if they read your
message or not?

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Right?

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Is that a red flag?

Speaker 2 (00:46):
I see? Where's this coming from? Exactly? Do you know
why someone thinks that it is, or if you're suspicious
of somebody or what has prompted this.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
It was a conversation that I happened into and I
don't know the origin story of the question. I just
know it's a question that was posed and I'm like, well,
in general, yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
Is that a red flag?

Speaker 5 (01:13):
Like?

Speaker 3 (01:14):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
I don't think so personally, right, Like, if you're dating
somebody in their red receipts are off, like maybe.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
But in general.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
This is why I pose the question because of context, right,
because maybe the person who posed this question originally they're
dating somebody or they're married to somebody, and they have
the red receipts turned off and they're going, hang on
a second, this is a red flag. And in that
situation it might be because that person might be up
to something unsavory and they don't want their spouse or

(01:48):
their significant other to know when they have seen something
and it's checked off that it's been read. They because
they want to be able to plead ignorance. They want
to be out and about doing something maybe and then say,
oh I didn't see your message. Oh I didn't get
that text until this time. And if the red receipts
are turned off, okay, then that stands. Yeah, if the

(02:10):
red receipts are turned on, then busted because you can
say I know you saw it at two thirty eight
because I saw the red receipt Yeah. So I think
that's context right matters.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
Yes, I think that does matter. I don't have iPhone,
so I don't have eye messenger, right, so I don't
bother really paying attention to like red receipt stuff because
I don't have it, So.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Do you have the option to do that with your phone?
To turn off?

Speaker 3 (02:32):
So what, I don't know. I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
I don't think God knows.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
I would have to go through my settings in look, thanks.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
I just turned into mini Pearl. But okay, I don't
think God no, Yeah, all right, well I have mine turned.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
Off, so nobody knows when you see it.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
No one can know.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
I see it as a boundary thing.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Yeah, that's what I see it as.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, yeah, I'm like, this is I phone my personal time,
So why does it matter? Well, it's like I shouldn't.
I don't have to be available to everybody at all times.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
And if you see that, I read it like, well,
then there's like this obligation to immediately respond, which I'm
trying myself to work away from.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
I don't think I should have to respond immediately.

Speaker 4 (03:22):
Yea, if I see something I don't have time for it,
it's not an emergency later, you know.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
So that's my view and.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
I agree with that. Yeah, because the thing about it
is if you have your red receipts turned on, as
you said, that person knows when you have seen that,
and then so they can now run the numbers on
their end, how long between when you read it and

(03:51):
when you responded to me, and then they can make
all kinds of inferences from there about you and their
relationship to you, and where all of that is right?

Speaker 6 (03:59):
Right? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (04:00):
And I don't mean just a romantic relationship. I mean
you can gauge, well, how important am I to this
person if they read it, you know, today, at one
o'clock and they didn't respond until nine point thirty tonight.
Right now, here's the problem with the inference game. You
could be completely wrong about all that. It might not
be that they're just putting you on standby because they
don't care about you. They might be really busy. They

(04:23):
might be trapped in a folding couch. I mean, who
knows what's going on. Maybe the guy is busy chewing
off his own arm because he's been trapped in a
cave all day.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Is that why you didn't respond yesterday? You were eating
your arm while trapped in a folding couch?

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Did you not O, there's only had one arm when
I came in. Is it a red flag if somebody
turns off their red receipts? Generally speaking? Because again I'm
with you, I think you can make some serious miss.
I just turned into Jeff Goldblum. I mean, you're over there,
your many pearl. I'm Jeff Goldbloom. I don't know what's

(04:57):
happening on the Shawn anymore. Let's talk about the ridiculousness
that must be ridicules.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Angry man opens his mouth and shuts his eyes.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
I said, over easy, I was still a little angry.

Speaker 6 (05:14):
I went from happy to angry.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
You're angry. I have never been that angry than my
entire life.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Dignity some people have it, Unfortunately many do not. And
we are about to take a look at the story
of two sisters who do not have it. They are
from Florida.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Oh surprise, surprise, here's your headline.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Two sisters have been arrested for fighting at their father's funeral.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
Okay, right, okay, continue with the story because I.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
This could go many.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
Directionss fighting at that is funeral. It was at the
church where their father's funeral was being held. According to reports,
the dispute concerned the eulogy that Kathleen gave for her father,
doctor Arthur Degan. So right away, that line right there

(06:11):
throws me off because when I hear two women basically
got into a fistfight at a funeral at a guy's funeral. Yeah,
you don't expect that man to be a doctor?

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Sure, doctor of what? Well, Florida ology or funk.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Maybe I don't know, but it just seems like he's
a professional man who obviously is educated and has some
dignity about him. I'm assuming you just don't expect. But again,
sometimes the fruit does fall far from the tree. The
problem is that Kathleen's sister, Maureen, was upset because Kathleen's

(06:45):
eulogy did not mention Maureen's daughter, So naturally, Maureene solved
that problem with thirty style bare knuckle boxing. According to
arrest records, Okay, yes, both of the women were detained
and then later released, but have been ordered to have
no contact with each other.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
That's even more ridiculous than what I came up with
in my brain.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
You talk about embarrassing that.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
Oh my goodness, can you.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Imagine being an adult and having the police show up
at your father's funeral to separate you from your sibling,
and then the police have to take you aside and
say stay away from them. Okay, we don't want you
having contact with your sibling. I think anytime the authorities
have to get involved to solve your problems with your family,

(07:39):
you've really failed. Yeah, and it's embarrassing.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
It is embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Yeah, it's very embarrassing.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
Oh unless like these were his final wishes maybe, like
you know, they were all together before he passed, and
he was like, you guys, like we really need to
make this, you know, not only a celebration of life,
but entertaining for those who are there.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
So can we figure out how to coordinate that? Yeah,
it was part of the play.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
The last thing he said before he died was girls, please,
if you could just repeatedly punch each other in the
head during my really.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Make it memorable. As don't want I don't want anybody
to forget this moment.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
You know what I really like, could you, while you're wrestling,
knock me out of the casket into with the war,
because I really think people would enjoy that. Yes, by
the way, this is a long shot, but we've got
a few minutes here. This is a four hour show.
We've got a few minutes eight eight eight seven seven
seven sixty six forty or you can text us have

(08:39):
you ever been in a fight or an argument in
an inappropriate place. I'm going to toss it out here. Okay,
you have gotten into it. It doesn't have to be
a fistfight. It could just be an argument in an
inappropriate time, in an inappropriate place. Maybe it was a funeral,
maybe it was a church service, maybe it was a wedding.

(08:59):
Where have you gotten into it with somebody and it
was completely inappropriate? Yeah, this is my question to you,
because this does happen. Sometimes you don't have controver when
when tempers flare and things blow up. I mean, sure,
you know you kind of do because you can always
just shut up. But you know, let's give you some
leeway here to encourage you to participate. I don't want

(09:20):
to get all judgmental now and then you don't.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
Participate, right, Yeah, Jack, this is we're not judging.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
We're not judging.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
We listen and we don't judge.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
We point in the.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Jack and Nikki Show WVAQ.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
You guys on the studio and textual lines is we
talk about love of sorts. I really really want to
get into this with you guys, and I really hope
that you play along with my silly reindeer games because
this is this is one of those segments where this

(09:54):
can be an absolute home run. We can have the
Time of our Lives or or death absolute death on
the radio. It's really up to you, guys. All right,
let's see if you buy it on this one. So
I was mentioning this a minute ago. I saw some
research yesterday that most people now meet a partner through

(10:16):
a dating app. Most people are online dating. And the
reason for that is, you know, pretty obvious, as we've
discussed on the show. Once you get out of school,
high school, and college, your hunting grounds essentially disappeared.

Speaker 6 (10:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
I mean, you might go to work for a place
that's kind of big and has a lot of employees,
and there's some people around there, but generally trying to
pick off somebody at the office to marry is frowned
upon in most places. So you know, you're discouraged in
that regard. But yeah, I mean, once you get out
of school, you never have that many people around you
and that much variety to choose from. Again, for most people,

(10:50):
so what do you do? You go online? That's your
best option, yes, but it doesn't always work out. For example,
here's our headline this morning, Online date Steals man's pants
and car. Oh no, I mean the indignity of it,
you guys. Not the pants, for God's sake. The car
is one thing, but his pants. Oh all right. Here's

(11:12):
the story. A twenty six year old man was robbed
at a Saint Louis motel by a woman he met online.
That man's name, you guessed it, Kyle Wiggs. Oh I
could call. The woman entered the man's motel room followed
by two armed men. So let's just pause right here.
He met this woman online and they decided to get

(11:34):
together at a motel in the Saint Louis area. He's
making a lot of good decisions, right, yes, all right,
So he's there. He's in the motel waiting honor. She
comes in with two armed men, and they then stole
this man's belongings, including his pants, and then snagged his
car keys and escaped in his Nissan. Police apprehended the

(11:59):
suspect after they stopped laughing. So it did take a
little bit of time to get to them.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah, a little bit of time.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
A little bit.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
Oh my gosh, what do they think like he wouldn't
run after them if you didn't have pants on?

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Is that like the thought process.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
I say that would be a deterrent. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's going to slow you down, right, you know what,
I'd like to know a.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
Couple takeaways from this. I guess yeah, that being one
of them.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Okay, what's the other one?

Speaker 5 (12:25):
Maybe put like an Apple air tag of some sorts
and in your car.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
There's that, so you could do that.

Speaker 4 (12:34):
Not and like only if you're planning on meeting a
stranger you met on the internet out of motel you
know Louis, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
And Saint Louis, so very specific reason. But at least
this guy had a reason. He had no good pants.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Well, now my question here is did they also take
the underpants? Oh, because if you're trying to slow this
guy down from coming after you, you do a couple
of things. You take not only the pants but also
the underpants, and you handcome him to the bed shoes.
Unless he's David Copperfield, he's not going to get out
of there very quickly, right, So he's now he has

(13:09):
to free himself from the cuffs and then he has
to at least go in and find a towel to
hide his shame. So if you have if you're really
planning it, out, you rob him of his pants and
his underpants, you handcuff him, and then you go into
the bathroom and you take the shower curtain and all
the towels on your way out.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
And the sheets at that point and.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Anything covered with. Now, if you really want to taunt
the guy, what you leave is, you know, a couple
of washcloths. All right, Now, you're going to be able
to run after us, but this is all you have. Yeah,
So let's hope you can make that work.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
This is I don't know why we're giving people help
here the scumbags are.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
I'll tell you why. I'll tell you why. It is
my hope that this happens locally and we can talk
about it tomorrow on the show.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Oh okay.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
In the meantime, my question to you, what kind of
online dating horror stories do you have? Have you met
somebody online, you met somebody in a dating app and
you got together with them? How'd that go? If you
met somebody on a dating app, which again most people
now do, how did that work out? That is the question.
We'll talk to you guys coming up. All right, let

(14:18):
me see what's on studio line here. You are on
the Jack Nikki show what you got? Yeah, Jack, the
guy you're talking about head fants Rob? Was that George Costanza?
It was wow? Okay, solid reference, solid about that? All right?
Thank you, yes, sir, appreciate it, all right, Nikki Drake.

(14:40):
What are you seeing on the text line here?

Speaker 3 (14:42):
We have love stories on the text.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
Line, Jack, love stories.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
I met my spouse online. We've been married for sixteen years.
My husband and I met on Tinder.

Speaker 5 (14:53):
We've been together seven years and this year we'll be
married five still going strong.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
I think it's time for you to pause and reiterate
the concept here. We're talking about relationships and experiences where
you got jerked around. I mean, look, I'm happy that
you're in love. I'm glad things worked out for you.
I want you to have a good life. But that's
not funny, Okay. The funny stuff is where you meet
some lunatic on a dating app and well, yeah, I mean,

(15:20):
maybe it gets too pants theft, but it might just
be you met him and it was weird and awkward
and had a painfully uncomfortable experience, maybe a weird conversation.
How about remember you talking about this? This was on
our podcast a few weeks ago. I remember hearing this.
Do you remember the woman in Braxton County I bumped

(15:40):
into in that store and she told me about her
friend who was like forty years old went out on
a date with a guy who was also around forty
years old from Charleston, and he showed up with a
backpack full of action figures and all sat down at
the dinner table and put the action figures in a
row between them. Yeah, and then eight and then collected

(16:02):
as action figures and said, I assume you're going to
pay for this.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Right right?

Speaker 6 (16:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (16:06):
I remember that.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
That's the kind of story I'm looking for. That's what
I'm talking about right.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
There, Not this story.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
I actually met my husband on a dating app. We
met on Tinder back in twenty twenty two. We have
been married three years and have one have a one
and a half year old.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
That's not the kind of story, you're Okay, No, No,
that is not what we're looking for here.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
We're looking for ridiculous situations, all right, that's what we're after.
Maybe we'll find one on the studio line here eight
eight eight seven seven seven sixty six forty You are
on the Jack and Nikki Show. What's your story.

Speaker 7 (16:39):
Oh gee, Jack, I've been through hell and backwick die.

Speaker 6 (16:43):
I really have.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
Are you calling from a local hotel where you're currently
pants list and handcuff to.

Speaker 6 (16:48):
A bed on my cell phone? I'm on my way
to work.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Oh okay, well.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
She's oh okay, Well that's good.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
And you are wearing pants?

Speaker 6 (16:56):
What's that?

Speaker 2 (16:56):
You have some type of pants on, some type of
cloth material covering? You're okay?

Speaker 7 (17:00):
Well, good morning.

Speaker 6 (17:01):
I walking down the sidewalk getting ready to open the gate,
and I fell on my ass and my breakfast shake
build all over me.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
No, okay, that is ma'am. That is hilarious and I'd
like to get into that more, but unfortunately we'll have
to do it another time. I gotta go. Thanks for
the call, appreciate it all right? What do I have
to do to get you people focused on what we're
doing here? I mean it is on now. Oh my,

(17:31):
you guys came through and all I had to do
was yell at you NonStop for twenty minutes. But they
came around.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Yeah, they came around.

Speaker 6 (17:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
We got out of the I fell in love stories
into I got screwed over. People were freaks. What do
you see on the text line.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
Met a guy online. He told me he was twenty two,
hard working, had his own place.

Speaker 4 (17:50):
Turns out he was twenty eight, a fella living with
his parents.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
Yeah, it's unfortunate.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Oh god, this is what I'm talking about. This is
what I was looking for.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
How did that information come out?

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Like, maybe they went back to his place, are like, hey,
how are you as they're walking through the living room.

Speaker 4 (18:12):
Who are those people borders?

Speaker 2 (18:17):
Yeah, I'm basically running a hostel here. Okay, all right,
see that's again that's what I'm talking about. And it's
this is one of the things about about dating apps.
You can create a kind of an embellished version of yourself.
Let's say that you can sell to people, and then

(18:38):
they can only really find out about that after they
meet you. This is something you can't really do very
well in person. Yeah. Yeah, I can't lie to you
about my appearance and what I do and stuff. If
you're standing there talking to me, maybe what I do,
but not if you meet somebody at work. Height. Wait,

(19:01):
all that stuff is clearly yeah, apparent right in front
of the person. But you can pull it off online.
Yeah sure, yeahs as this text found out. Now, are
there any additional texts that you'd like to get to
before we go to the call.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
No, let's go to the phone.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
Let's go to the phones. Eight eight eight seven seven
seven sixty six forty. You are on the Jack and
Nikki Show. What do you have for us?

Speaker 7 (19:23):
Okay? So I met a guy on Plenty of Fish
one time, went out on a date with him, and
he ended up being like kind of weird. So I
had a friend call me and pretend that they have
emergency so I could get out of the date. Well,
fast forward a few years later, I met a guy
on Tender and we started hanging out, and I actually

(19:45):
kind of liked to guy, but there was just something
about him. I kept telling him like, I know you,
I know you from somewhere. He's like, well, I don't know,
I don't know. Well, come to find out, he was
the guy that I went on on a date previously
that I thought was an extreme weirdo. And then when
I found that out, I was like, yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
Okay, no, no, now wait, now we've got something here.
So in the interim, either he normaled up or you
got more weird, so that it worked out.

Speaker 7 (20:11):
I think I got more.

Speaker 6 (20:12):
Weird okay, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Somebody moved towards the other one in that scenario.

Speaker 3 (20:17):
Yeah, so did you continue dating?

Speaker 7 (20:20):
Oh? Well, continuating a little bit, but we just decided
to remain friends. Okay, So who has kind of I mean.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Who has custody of the backpack full of the action
hero figures? Do you keep that or does he keep it?

Speaker 6 (20:37):
Oh? I have.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
All right? That that was smart? All right, thanks for
the call. We appreciate it.

Speaker 7 (20:47):
Thank you, bye bye.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Just as I suspected, all right, I'm going to try
to squeeze in one more call here, and this might
be a mistake. I have no idea of who or
what this is about.

Speaker 6 (20:59):
Are you?

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Are you with us?

Speaker 6 (21:00):
Hello?

Speaker 2 (21:03):
Hello, hullo? Yeah, Hi, what's your name?

Speaker 6 (21:07):
I'm Kendall All.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
Hi, Kendal.

Speaker 6 (21:08):
Where you're from the clark Sturg Bridgeport area?

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Okay? Very good? Kind of she's kind of from the
Clarksburg Bridge area.

Speaker 3 (21:16):
Tell you, but I don't want you to track me down.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
I'm starting to think, Kendall, you may have been the
strange one when you went out on the day.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
All right, he's the one lying about having her own place.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
So you did you meet somebody on a dating app
Kendall and it went south on you.

Speaker 6 (21:30):
It was very odd. This was like twenty sixteen or seventeen,
I don't remember, but I was texting this guy for
probably like a month and then we it just kind
of started to fall off. And then one day he
texted me and he was like, hey, when you stayed
the other day? Was there money on my night staying
that you like took? And I was like, when I
stayed the other day, I didn't stay the other day.
And he was like, yeah, you stayed on Tuesday, blah

(21:52):
blah blah. And I was like, I've never stayed the
night with you, Like what are you talking about? And
so he was like I had probably like one hundred
dollars worth of money, like worth of bills, like laying
on my night stand and it's gone now. And I
was like, but I've never stayed the night with you,
Like do you know who this is? So he sends it.
He was like, well, I have cameras all over my
apartment and I was like, okay, send me the footage. Then,

(22:14):
like let's see it. He send it to me and
I called him and I was like, that's not me,
Like it was the funniest thing. I was like, do
you know me? Like, do you even have any ideas?
And I was like, here's a picture of me, and
here's your your like video footage from your apartment. And
he was like, oh my gosh, like I'm so sorry,

(22:34):
this must have been old. And I was like, how
many women do you have?

Speaker 5 (22:38):
That episode right now?

Speaker 6 (22:39):
It was obnoxious?

Speaker 2 (22:41):
So let me let me just let me ask you this.
Let me ask you this that unpleasant story aside. Did
you enjoy the time you spent with Leonardo DiCaprio, No,
I didn't.

Speaker 6 (22:52):
We met a person one time, like, we went to
dinner and that was it. But when he asked if
I took his money, I was like, first of all,
I would, but also I've never even seen like the
outside of your apartment.

Speaker 5 (23:03):
Let let alone the inside well, and why would you
keep the money on the night stand.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Anyway, And after you handle that situation so poorly, you're
never gonna get to see the inside. So I hope
you can live with that man. Thanks for the call.
Appreciate that. Wow, that guy's got game. Huh. We's done
with so many ladies he can't even keep track of
which one's robbing.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Him the Nerve Center of North Central West Virginia. Jack
Loger and Nicki Drake on one O two wv AQ.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
It's Jack and Nikki back at the health desk. It's
not healthy.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
Why it didn't sound healthy at all?

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Oh, I'm not healthy. That he's not healthy.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
It wouldn't be healthy.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
What's the worst that could happen?

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Well, tell you the worst that can happen, you completely
go off the rails. We're gonna tell you now how
to spot your own mental decay. Okay, okay. You might
see yourself simply cheap or thrifty, but others, Yeah, that's right, frugal,
but others see you as unhinged. Oh maybe it's it's

(24:08):
gone too far.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
Okay, because I'm very frugal. Now I'm worried.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
I think I might be guilty of some of these
things as well. Let's find out together. This is an
article from finance Buzz. Signs you've gone from cheap to unhinged.

Speaker 6 (24:23):
Ugh.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
For example, you would rather risk heat exhaustion than spend
money on your air conditioning.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
No, No, I am a climate controlled human.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
Reed. I will pay any price. I will make any
sacrifice to stay cool in the house. Okay, so don't
have that problem. You take more than your fair share
of leftovers from office parties.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
I've done this, but I've seen other people go beyond.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yeah, we had a coworker here. We would take everything.
You'd leave it out front, and they'd just disappear with
the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
In the share section. And then I am missing.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
All of it, all of it like an entire tray
of food for everybody.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Yes, oh, I remember multiple occasions this happened. It was
always the same person.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
Who denied it.

Speaker 7 (25:11):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
I hope she's listening this morning. Okay, I don't have
that problem because I don't go to office parties, so
don't have to deal with it. Let's see. You wear
clothes until they are threadbare. Yeah, I do this, I do,
but I don't do that for cheapness. I do it
because I like it. It's still I really like a shirt, ye,

(25:33):
or you know, pair pants or something. I will. I'll
try to hang on to it as long as I
can because I like it, especially if it's irreplaceable right and.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
It fits and there's no holes.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
You do, Nikki, realize that you and I have done
nothing but sit here and make excuses for why we're
doing this stuff. We're not We're unhinged. Yeah, we're troubled. Okay,
let's move on to the next one. You don't believe
in single use anything. That's kind of true for me.

Speaker 3 (26:01):
Toilet paper single use.

Speaker 6 (26:05):
Years.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
That's why I said kind of Okay, there are some exceptions.

Speaker 3 (26:08):
You tips are single years.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I will I will try to double use a paper
plate if I can.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
We don't have paper plates.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
I have them downstairs.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
Okay, yeah, we don't have paper plates.

Speaker 4 (26:20):
Napkins are single use, but my parents they switched over
to the cloth napkins, so those are.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Your dad can blow his nose only all over the house, gross,
because your mom finds it sexy. Let's see you do
the smell test in lieu of washing your clothes. No,
do you ever sniff anything.

Speaker 4 (26:40):
I've sniffed my jeans before, because jeans don't get washed
every day.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Okay. Uh. You leave every restaurant with a pocket full
of splendor. I don't.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
Okay, look, I don't take the splendor, Oh my god,
but sometimes there are.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Let's just move on. You eat yourself sick at buffets.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
I used to. I don't really go to many buffets anymore.
But some buffets they're just so good.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
I will eat until I can't eat anymore. And if
I don't, I do feel like I'm leaving money on
the table. Okay, I mean it's true, I do.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
I mean who goes and pays for a buffet and
walks out of there going? You know, I'm feeling a
bit peckish. I could have some more. Well, then have
some more. You paid for as much as you can eat.
Keep eating until you can't eat anymore. Again, more excuses, yes, okay,
and we'll just finish with you. D I y literally everything.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
As much as possible.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, me too. Oh God, if I can do it,
I'll do it myself.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
What's wrong with us?

Speaker 2 (27:46):
We're apparently we're unhidd and this is how we found
out about it in front of everybody.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
Meant you
