And I don't get how that's a debate.
Speaker 2:Did they forget about the kangaroos that be on steroids 24 seven? They be drowning people and dogs and those things are massive and he showed almost as that little person too.
Speaker 3:Huh, you saw it almost as that little person.
Speaker 1:That's crazy, bro, the fact that you keep it a straight face. What's happening everybody? This is the OMG is Wicks show, episode 26. We bike again. We made it another week. It's cold and raining so I'm not enjoying it, but I'm going to toss it and let everybody else introduce they sell.
Speaker 3:What's up? This is a man. He knocks. I brought balance with me today, so it's either you can hear from any knocks or balance, but with this one to my left, you probably hear from balance. Speaking to my left, what?
Speaker 2:It's Lena Slim. I'm back at it again.
Speaker 3:It's about to be lit right. She got, she got more DMs. I still ain't get one.
Speaker 2:Oh, my goodness.
Speaker 3:So, but that's just something, I'm going to share them with you.
Speaker 2:I just said put your cash up on Dure so you can send you the way. What episode is this?
Speaker 1:26. No DMs yet, but. But you have a mani fan club in the comments. I don't have one of those.
Speaker 3:But, but we'll get back to that. But remember people like share, subscribe. We need you to do that. We know you're amazing and you continue to watch and stop being selfish and share good things with your friends too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, let them know what we're doing. Also, I want to give a shout out to the audio listeners, because our audio audience, they be they be on it, they be leaving us comments and stuff. I don't know how to check, oh yeah, but I just see we got a new comment. When I go on Spotify and I be like, look at us. We got to figure out how to check them, I know I want to see what they say about it. What if it's like all bad stuff? I'm pretty sure it's not.
Speaker 3:I'm all. I'm open to constructive criticism, unlike a lot of y'all.
Speaker 1:Well, what about when they said you were sliding out the chair on cough drops? That's ridiculous.
Speaker 3:When I find a person that said that I'm a slide, you are to every chair in your life. For the rest of your life I'm going to go to every gathering and I'm going to knock you out your damn chair, with a with a fistful of cough drops. I used to do with a bag of nickels, but I'm going to do with a bag of cough shots and not feel inside your head. Every family gathering. Nobody's going to understand I'm not telling them to be like why somebody always assaulting you with cough drops at gatherings.
Speaker 1:You just got to be out there swinging a sock full of cough drops out in the parking lot.
Speaker 3:Oh man, and it's going to be the off brand cough drops too. I'm not going to respect you by using halls Hall like is that your cough drop?
Speaker 1:Like your go to cough drop. That's the best cough drop. That's the high quality stuff.
Speaker 2:Because it has a lot of alcohol.
Speaker 1:That's what it is. Many begin lit off the car. I mean it's a new thing, but whatever I had, I had a cough drop addiction phase. So did you really?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I had to get up. Well, it's just even a bad thing. We'll figure it out. Everything's bad for you.
Speaker 2:I guess that's why, if you get pulled over, they ain't going to find an alcohol in your system.
Speaker 1:Let's think of a better commercial.
Speaker 3:Yes, no, that's all land bro.
Speaker 1:But so it was just announced I'm hosting the Florida man Games. Hey, now I'm ready. And then they, they asked me, they was like hey, are you going to participate? And I'm like it feels my younger days, because they got one where they I just found out they running from real police that somebody asked me, that is a real. Oh, that's what's up. They're running from real police.
Speaker 3:I got a question what's up? Because now I kind of want to participate, they're off duty, yeah. So that means I say like if I buy a mistake, elbow 12, they can't lock me up for assault.
Speaker 1:And I'm pretty sure they got ways to round.
Speaker 3:No let me stop that. Let me stop with the jokes. We shouldn't be violent against anybody. It's not funny and I take that back. Is that balance or many? That's that's many balance. You don't want balance to speak on there? Yeah, and that person. I'm not really going to knock you out to chair every event, maybe one, but that's it, that's it, that's it.
Speaker 1:What about the people that come in the Caterpillar costume? Because we haven't forgot Drop bowls on them.
Speaker 3:Oh, you don't know about the Caterpillar? No, we're not getting back to that, but it's over, we don't have to repeat it. Can I just tell her real quick, go ahead. And this is so stupid.
Speaker 1:One of our one of our adventures. We were in a Jeep Everglade tour and we're going through these like hold on.
Speaker 3:Let me get to go ahead. These adventures are going on. You're you going to hear it too? Wix is, and Rudy knows I'm talking about, which is always going to be like y'all safe. I got you. If anything goes down, I'm your savior. Well, I'm caping it up, go ahead. Are y'all still here? Continue has nothing to do with you.
Speaker 1:I was doing a continue Haven't saved me once. So we went on this adventure. We're going through like the brush. I guess a caterpillar drop beside me, right A caterpillar, ok, that's what it was. And Manny says, hey, was this? And I was like I look over. I didn't see it. At first I thought you were talking about off the truck, because we were kind of stopped and he kept pointing. But then he starts pointing down at the caterpillar. So then it was like oh, it's a caterpillar. He knew it was a caterpillar. His reliable source, which was Chardae, his girlfriend, not a reliable source at all Was like I think it's poisonous.
Speaker 2:You panic?
Speaker 1:Manny says oh Wix, is this thing poisonous? I look over I was like, oh, no, maybe. And I turn around because I'm like looking at the edible plants.
Speaker 1:The important thing is the edible plants, and so Manny is like he's back and he was like wait a minute, is this thing poisonous? And I had tuned out because I was tuned into the plants. You know one thing at a time. So what happened was Manny ended up knocking it off and he said he was in like he said I didn't save him or I didn't protect him. And I was like Manny, it was a caterpillar. The only way that they can harm you is if you touch it. If you don't touch it, then you're good, even the ones that are venomous. But that one wasn't venomous. And then I saw after a while we went like 15 minutes and I was like well, manny, this is the list of caterpillars that you have to worry about.
Speaker 3:And he gives me the list of caterpillars I have to worry about 30 minutes later.
Speaker 2:Was it on there.
Speaker 3:No, don't be like them it was already like them. I'm asking you no, it wasn't, but don't be like them. I mean, let me tell the story again, because I don't think you heard it right. Caterpillar drops. I'm not an animal. I'm not just going to flip a caterpillar if it's not going to do nothing to me. So I need to know do I need to knock this thing on its head or what? So I'm like Wix what is it, wix?
Speaker 3:I don't have to, because I got Steve Kerwin in front of me, apparently what he describes himself. Hey yo, wix, what's up with this thing? Now turns around. I'm like wow, this is the savior we brought with us. No, I said man. Then his girl's like Manny, I think that's poisonous. I'm pretty sure it is. I said Wix, she's saying it's his poisonous. Can you help us out over here? Is this thing next to me poisonous? He goes, I don't really know. Turns around to look at plants. No, I said maybe.
Speaker 1:I said maybe, and then I turned around.
Speaker 2:And if 15 minutes later I get a list of it should show you that if he's not freaking out, you shouldn't either.
Speaker 3:Thank you, but how does he know he does not have to freak out and he's done no research? He did no research, he don't know. Does that feel safe to you? What if you're looking at something? It's next to you and you're like Wix is this an alligator next to me?
Speaker 1:Let me figure. Is this an?
Speaker 3:alligator next to me. If Wix turns, he goes eh and it goes about his business. Does that feel like the savior?
Speaker 2:But does that feel like the security to you? Is that how security should handle it? I'm going to pull out my phone, take a picture of it and Google that shit.
Speaker 3:Well, that's the thing, because if I don't, I don't need Google. Because, according to him, he's the savior, what?
Speaker 2:Let's move on before I get pissed off. Bro, it ain't got nothing to do with you. You messed up. Ok, you know I'm still here because I knocked that thing away for me.
Speaker 3:That's why.
Speaker 2:I'm still here, man. He's saying today he whispered in my ear. He says he apologizes, I'm going to apologize.
Speaker 1:I don't want to hear that.
Speaker 2:Man, I'm sorry, he got people like you.
Speaker 3:You all have a problem because there's somebody like you See.
Speaker 1:But then people will say they're going to do something.
Speaker 3:He's saying, he's flexing about how he's going to always be the nature man and gotten this. He had one chance right there. He had his first chance, but it would have been light work, it would have been a quick save for him. Nothing he couldn't even handle that.
Speaker 1:So what I got to do to restore your faith, I don't know. Save my life for one thing I got to jump on an alligator bat.
Speaker 2:Save my life, bro, because I'm with that. There's more about your common, all right, I need you to step up your game.
Speaker 1:I got you, especially the next ones. But what? So? Somebody in the comments will say they're going to come to our live show because we're planning on doing like a live podcast and they're going to come as dressed as a caterpillar. And I said if they do come dressed as a caterpillar, we'll find a way.
Speaker 2:See, I love it.
Speaker 1:So then now.
Speaker 2:I got butterfly wings at home.
Speaker 1:Oh, that'd be good, but they had to be like a OK, never mind.
Speaker 3:You got angel wings because if this person come to the live, oh, my goodness. And the caterpillar for it. It's going to be the last. It's going to be the last live, because he will no longer be alive. So if you got angel wings for him, then you're going to be, so you're good yeah. It's Florida. This dude could be venom. Oh you talking about the caterpillar?
Speaker 1:Yeah, Can we move on man?
Speaker 3:Can we move on it?
Speaker 1:might be. It might be venomous. You know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3:I started to get over this caterpillar thing bro.
Speaker 2:I forgot about it. Let's change the subject.
Speaker 3:We don't want to ruin it. No, it's back, it's back.
Speaker 1:Our next Florida adventures. We got going on. What is it? We going to Animal Sanctuary in Naples, we got Manatee swimming and we got Gasperella. Gasperella is the pirate parade. I didn't know pirates Like I know Tampa Bay Buccaneers and you're like, ok, you grew up in the sport, I didn't know that temple and the pirate culture in Tampa is very strong.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I didn't know this was a pirate. I think you told me about it. Yeah, oh, you got to go. It's people dressed up as pirates everywhere.
Speaker 2:That's why I look that you're like that Because you've never been to one.
Speaker 3:I went last year. This is like a ghetto. It's a little intense, it's like a ghetto medieval, fair Well where do you go?
Speaker 1:Where do you go? You're going to see what is. It's a whole experience. I had so much fun last year. My original plan didn't work out, so I went. I was supposed to be on a float, that didn't work out. So I was like you know what? I'm going to just walk around and talk to everybody. So then I ended up. Yeah, I took like 200 pictures and talked to a bunch of people. So I got to meet a bunch of people.
Speaker 3:This is the show is challenging. It's challenging to do this why? Because there's so many things I want to say, but I'm going to be around these people.
Speaker 2:Be nice.
Speaker 3:So I'm going to say it. So, after we do this, you want beef with a pirate? No, I just had things to say, but I'm going to say as a person We'll see how it is. I'm going to experience it, we'll see how it is, and maybe I have a difference in opinion once I've experienced life with these pirate people.
Speaker 1:I think it's a fun. Now, I'm not going to lie, the gas really is fun though.
Speaker 3:I will find out. I'm going to go in with an open mind and my own protection, because it's not like I'm going to have protection with me.
Speaker 2:I accidentally ended up in the crowd. I am planning to go. It was a lot, it was intense. Yes, it's intense, my anxiety.
Speaker 3:I was like itching, I was like it was intense because there was a lot of people.
Speaker 2:It's a lot of people, it's a lot of people.
Speaker 1:It's a lot of people and it's a low stress. It's a. It's a lot of people.
Speaker 2:It's like a festival type of thing.
Speaker 1:I'm starting to regret this. But they have like food trucks and stuff it's, it's good.
Speaker 2:That's the only thing that made me happy.
Speaker 1:They throw beads.
Speaker 3:What do I? Got to work for these beads. You know what I'm saying? We got to show some skin. Yeah, dude, I just get my beads. You got to show some skin, I'm back on board.
Speaker 1:Why, man, you think I'm with it. I'm with it, I'm back on board. Now you excited. I ain't grow these things for nothing.
Speaker 3:Back on board baby, what Y'all gonna experience? A different kind of power than me, boy.
Speaker 1:So what? Okay, so Florida and Invitia. So the gasp are really. You're good, isn't it? Yes? And then I got the. We got to figure out that we're going back. Python honey, the four-lane thing, what the motorized surfboard thing? I can't swim, but I think it's going to be a good adventure.
Speaker 3:Um well, it's a new year, so we're going to redo the contract we have. I'm not going to just do anything.
Speaker 2:And we plan ahead right, yeah, yeah, okay, cause you know I got to know my schedule around all the time.
Speaker 3:I don't agree with and I'm not going to be a part of that. What do you mean, that motoring thing? You talking about these people?
Speaker 1:Oh, no, no, no, okay, so y'all don't have to do that one.
Speaker 3:Y'all don't have to do that one. No, I'm not doing that one. Y'all don't have to do that one. I don't think they got a board big enough for me anyway.
Speaker 1:I'll do the manatee and the python for sure, and that's cause you know, I got my pink outfit. Oh yeah, oh yeah, I got a. Um, I got some plans. I'm going to come and get a python outfit. I got plans. I got plans. When y'all see me drop out, you know, pull out.
Speaker 3:You can be the only python hunter that looks like Rick James.
Speaker 2:Man, I'm going, it's going down, I'm not share your location with somebody outside of the podcast.
Speaker 1:I do, I do.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:I do my listen. Everybody know. Well, it depends on everybody. Everybody always know where I'm at, but, um, it depends on where we're going. We got to get fully finished getting a school certified Um in the spring, so we got a lot of things coming up. I'm excited, um. Another thing, right. So I posted online and I didn't think it was a debate, but I was living in Florida. Managed, you know, he's from New York but pretty much live in Florida, it's whole life, you from Florida. Right, I'm from Florida. I didn't think it was a debate, so I posted about how Australia wildlife is crazy and in Florida's wildlife, as a Floridian, I don't know what's, because, period, I'm, I'm used to Florida. So Florida is like eh, you know what I'm saying Like you see an alligator, you know we got crocodiles and how is he in the size of their spiders?
Speaker 2:We got their enormous we told them that.
Speaker 1:So this was one of my debates. I was like you know, y'all have hunt, like we have huntsman spiders here, but we got the little version. Yeah, and our little work. Their little version of their spider is still the biggest spider we have in Florida, but they have the big version they were like but they're harmless. So then we start going animal per animal and Australia basically made it as though Florida has crazier animals than Australia and I don't get how that's a debate.
Speaker 2:Did they forget about the kangaroos that be on steroids 24 seven?
Speaker 1:Then he drowning people and dogs and those things are Massive.
Speaker 2:He showed almost as that little person too.
Speaker 3:Huh, you saw it almost as that little person. That's crazy.
Speaker 1:The back that you keep in a straight face. Why are you saying this? I?
Speaker 3:got a soft spot. I'm not saying nothing to do. Nine, but if there's any little women out there and he loving their life, that is the last thing on my bucket list.
Speaker 2:That's my best friend's weak spot.
Speaker 3:Yeah, because.
Speaker 2:I like short women.
Speaker 3:What's the ultimate form of a short woman? A little person. So highlight me please. Whatever you want, I'll be a sugar daddy. I do need some sugar, though, but anyway, you know it's crazy. Australia is like super Florida, that's what I'm saying Australia's Florida on steroids.
Speaker 1:But you want to know what they said to me. It was like what.
Speaker 2:It has like that desert vibe to it. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:They said well, and then, bro, I'm going to get to that, but it was like we had y'all have bears and Panthers. That's what they said. We have bears and Panthers. I'm like, first of all, they're barely here.
Speaker 2:They extinct at this point.
Speaker 1:But the Panthers numbers are increasing. But Panthers are not trying to bother you. They see you, they're out of there, bears, they just trying to get in your trash. But then, as I'm researching this, I see a video of a koala bear that dropped, I guess during made in season. Oh no, you got to watch this video. He dropped out of the tree during made in season. They call them drop bears, but they, the koala bears, were made into. They drop out of trees and they attack people.
Speaker 2:Are they quick?
Speaker 1:Yes, yes, they had their kids out there that were to the attack. I mean how?
Speaker 2:quick, are they? Don't they sleep, like about 95% of the day I'm going to show you the video.
Speaker 3:Let me say they got mad now, but they got mad energy at that point. I'm going to show you the video. I'm going to show you the video.
Speaker 1:I'm going to show you the video. I'm going to show you the video. Y'all going to see what I'm saying. Then they got the kangaroo, they got cassowary, they have dingoes. I forgot about those. I mean I guess we got some. You know, we got coyotes and stuff.
Speaker 2:So yeah, we have those.
Speaker 1:But we have our crocodiles are small and they only own certain parts they have. We have crocodiles. We have American crocodiles. They're not the saltwater crocodiles that they got over there.
Speaker 2:What is that? Crocodile with a real, like long snout, like real pointy, looks like a sword. You know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1:Are those from here? No, no, no, no, we only got.
Speaker 2:I bet you they're from Australia, though they might be Hold up.
Speaker 1:We only got American crocs. We got Cayman. Now I think those are in Africa. We got Alligator. I think the pointed ones are in Africa. Let me see that's another place, because the elephants but anyways the Australians were looking at us like we have the craziest animals. We're looking at them like they have the crazy. So is it like a thing that we're used to? So it's because we're used to, florida animals is why we're looking like you know they're crazy and no, that's a hundred percent what it is, but that's.
Speaker 3:That's just like every aspect of life. If you're used to something every day, it's not a big deal to you, but if you put a new person in your environment, they be like what the heck?
Speaker 1:So it's the same thing as like us dealing with, like our earthquake.
Speaker 3:Yeah. I'm screaming and crying. We haven't experienced it, but they in California like where's my martini, please? Yeah, we just get used to what is around us.
Speaker 2:We just learned to live with it, cause, I said the last time, my sister lives in Anchorage, alaska.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:She's always complaining about, like our animals, and I'm like girl. I want to try to take out the trash and have like seven polar bears looking at me.
Speaker 1:Oh no.
Speaker 2:And move sis walking down the street and I've never seen one in my life. They're huge, they're like the size of a damn elephant. I didn't know they were that big and you're worried about. I could at least take the trash out. You barely can.
Speaker 1:And polar bears hunt people Like they actively hunt people. They will. They will kill you.
Speaker 2:And those black bears are savage too. They're very aggressive.
Speaker 1:Well, our black bears be chilling. I think it's just a Florida vibe Like our black. I had a black bear in my neighborhood. It was in the trash. I looked at him, he looked at me, I looked at him, he looked at me. I went in the house. He went the other way. We ain't seen each other since. Yeah.
Speaker 3:I want to talk. Who shouldn't be talking negative about black bears? That's very controversial. No, yeah, but it's about what you used to be in a round. You know what I'm saying. Like, we're used to toxic women because of where we live, so you just get used to the. You know whatever you're surrounding. You want to do this.
Speaker 2:I feel like he likes toxic, Like he doesn't want to say it, but it's like he's given the signs but he doesn't want to say it. He wants us to say it for him. He loves the toxicity. You do not.
Speaker 3:I could tell you what it is.
Speaker 2:What is it? I want to hear this.
Speaker 3:I have a savior complex Okay.
Speaker 1:Oh, cause you made the song. I wasn't talking about that, but that is a good you made a song.
Speaker 3:I remember the song and I came. I made that song before the original came out, anyways, but um, yeah, I think that's what it is. I have a savior complex, so okay. But even if I have a savior complex, I don't go after women. They'll come after me. So how? So I'm attracting that kind of, but I don't know how, cause I'm not looking for so the women that needs saving.
Speaker 1:I'm not like I don't want to go after you. I'm here to save you, so I'm here to save you. I'm here to save you. I'm here to save you as Okay. So maybe you're putting out that Save your energy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Like come, let me save you energy. I maybe I think he's always in survival mode. You know us being from Florida. I think it also has to do with the fact that she likes toxic, because he doesn't want to be bored, he wants to be in that Save your mentality, type of thing. Like do you like lay back chilling?
Speaker 3:Or do you really want to like?
Speaker 2:go out there looking for her.
Speaker 3:No, heck, no.
Speaker 2:Something is telling me he wants to do it. No, I've never done that, I've never been.
Speaker 3:Hey, go, have fun. I'll be right here. If you want to come back, Just hit me up. Make sure I'm awake. That's right. Never been. No, I'm never chasing. No, I'm too old for that. I ain't got time for that. I got ass with that. But I do like yeah.
Speaker 1:You chase nobody. I got ass with that. Well, hey look, I might get you a few steps, but that's it. That's all I got.
Speaker 3:No, yeah, but I do use other people as like to distract from me. Okay, and I will focus on other people. I will work on other people's problems before I work on mine.
Speaker 1:So do you. So that's probably it. You think that that's a toxic trait.
Speaker 3:Yeah. So, back to earlier. Well, hold up. If I'm a whole one day, don't mean I'm a whole. I was just a whole on Tuesday. So just because I have one toxic trait everybody has a toxic trait that don't mean we toxic he's a part-time whole. Not even that, no, I just I've had whole experience, but I'm not a whole every day, just sometimes. At one point in my life I was a whole and now I'm not.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but that's everybody. We all go through a whole phase, not me, all right anyways. So yeah, I think that's what it is.
Speaker 2:You're her last thing. It wasn't even a phase what you were going through back in the day. Yeah, a phase is like temporary, like I'll say like six months.
Speaker 1:I kind of blocked it out. You did like 16 years, if you don't, if you don't, if you close it out, it didn't happen. That's a psychological defense mechanism. I closed my eyes for most of it. It didn't happen. Next question I just, I'm just saying it's the truth. Okay, so I think Manny wanted to. Manny had something he wanted to. Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2:He had a question.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I was like we might as well ask it on the show.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's not on here.
Speaker 3:No, it's on there. I just kind of go something like you do this to me now.
Speaker 2:Oh, my goodness.
Speaker 3:You do this. I don't know why people do this, like y'all are not used to people being blunt and just upfront All the time. I don't think that y'all are used to that consistently. So when people come around me they try to label me as negative just because I'm gonna give you the reality of the truth Without no sugarcoating. But anyway, that leads me to this week at my let me say anyway, somebody came up to me talking about they're going through some stuff mentally. The job is like well, you should look for some professional help. You should definitely look for some professional help. They offer it free here. Go look for it, I'll get you the information.
Speaker 1:Question, yeah, Is this the same person? No, no, this is somebody else so.
Speaker 3:But what I did was everybody needs to hear this. So what I did was I didn't just get him that information, I gave everybody on my team the information. Hey, here's the paper. We get free therapy. You should use it. I've used it in the past. They helped me out. One more question yeah, the guy everybody.
Speaker 1:I gave him two papers.
Speaker 3:Okay, go ahead, in case he lost it in the first one. So, but everybody kind of well, not everybody, most of the people like reacted negatively or just kind of dismissed it Cause I think they took it as why is somebody trying to tell me I need mental help and just like a lot of things, like when I'm just being honest with somebody?
Speaker 3:I want to deliver it Like it's a reminder. Well, I just put the paper on everybody's desk and then, as I was walking back, or just throughout the day, somebody was like hey, what is this? And then I explained to them what it is Okay, and either they just didn't say no, and some people just crumbled it up and threw it away, okay. And then some people just said straight up, are you trying to tell me something? I'm like no, I use that. Yes, I use it.
Speaker 2:No, a lot of people are offended by that and I get that, but you need to create a scenario and then give that information. For example, like if I was to do it, I would start something like hey, I know the holidays are tough for everyone Cause we've lost people that we love and sometimes financially it's a bargain for us and stuff. So if you guys are going through a lot of stress at the moment, remember it's just a reminder that the company provides free therapy and stuff and use it to your advantage, cause a lot of people don't have it, and then hand out the information, then everybody will be like oh you know, but if yeah, and that's why they need you, and that's why they need balance.
Speaker 3:Could I ask them?
Speaker 1:a thing my name is balance. Yeah, go ahead. By the way, that was perfect. Do you think that was cheesy and basic, but that's perfect.
Speaker 2:Vanilla and that.
Speaker 3:People have had enough vanilla.
Speaker 2:Oh Lord, I have to be that At work, you have to be.
Speaker 1:You don't have to be, I'm doing very well. Do you think that they took it negative because of the therapy or did you think they took it negative because it was coming from you?
Speaker 3:I think the therapy, because, like this young lady here, people are already used to oh, whatever he gotta say, he's negative, blah, blah, blah. So now they already know who it's coming from.
Speaker 1:so no, but that's what I'm saying, so they know, like Manny gave me this, he trying to be funny. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:I think what he's saying is that your personality and doing that duty of handing out that information. It doesn't.
Speaker 1:it's not the piece together Like I know you right, yeah, so if you came to me and was like you may need therapy, I'll be like, okay, but for people that don't fully know you and they get like the surface.
Speaker 2:They get work you.
Speaker 1:They get the jokes, they get the bluntness, and then you come up with a therapy paper, and then they be like wait, wait, what is he trying to say? So they're already on defense? You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:So like could it be that I don't care Listen this is what I say, cause we don't got time like.
Speaker 3:I know your teachers were good, but like cause I like Nah cause see people like oh, I can never tell when you're serious or when you're joking. I'm never, I've never. I'm 36 years old, I've never told a joke, Never told a joke.
Speaker 3:I'm just saying the things that come out my mouth and you'd laugh for some reason. I don't understand why you laughing. There's no drum thing at the end of what I say. There's not a smile on my face when I say it, so you not knowing whether I'm joking or not when I'm telling him not joking. That's really your problem at this point. So, just like the negative thing, it's like whatever bro, whatever Go, go, keep going. A long life which is vanilla BS and not liking, and you want everybody to be nice to you and I gotta give you the medicine with this sugar.
Speaker 1:Good luck, no, no, like I said I know your intentions were good, we're behind it, Cause you like, hey, I gave it to this person. You know what, let me give it to everybody, Cause maybe everybody don't know this information. So you're like, hey, he didn't know this information, Maybe you know, and you've used it before. So maybe they, like I said, most people are already in like defense mode. So as soon as you say something to them, they're already, like you know, especially coming from something like, say, if I were to do it, People because I tell a lot of jokes and I joke around all the time people probably think it's coming from like a joke place, Not knowing that I'm really like big on people.
Speaker 1:You know speaking with someone and mental health and things like that. So they're probably just instantly think, oh, he's not into that. So they're instantly take it as you know, something bad when it's not bad. So I'm not saying it's you know you, only you. You know it would probably be the same leader, would be able to deliver it. They would take it from me, Would they, though?
Speaker 2:Yeah, yes, they will.
Speaker 1:I think you need to okay. How about this? How about you try it Lena's way?
Speaker 3:Then they're going to think it's a joke.
Speaker 2:Then they're going to think it's a joke. 100% Do I need to go to your office?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't think that's a good idea. You don't want to put yourself in your safer in the cage with the lion, tigers and bears that we're going to see.
Speaker 1:Which brings us to our next point. Manny finally made the beer cut his mustache, his glue mustache I didn't all right, first of all, and he came up. You know what?
Speaker 2:We're going to bring that up.
Speaker 3:I.
Speaker 2:I are.
Speaker 3:These people didn't want to take therapy. I don't have the power to make anybody do anything, so I disagree with him. This gentleman shaved his whatever he had just because he wanted to change, I guess, so 24.
Speaker 1:What? Okay. So what did he do to make you notice Cause this is what's going to prove that he did it for Manny Um, can you give us the list of occurrences that happened that led up to this? You noticing, the mustache was shaved.
Speaker 3:Wait, you saying like all the events or just the times he came over to me to try to show?
Speaker 1:The event that happened before.
Speaker 2:And remind the people. The reason why we're talking about this is cause this was a man that delivered chicken to him with his beard on top of an open container.
Speaker 3:Oh, so you want me to tell, like all those events, that's in the short version, and then to where we got today.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. Where are you? So the event? Do you remember the day before you said, or the time before, what you said you did, and then you said he came back the next day. Oh, the chicken, the chicken, yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 3:Oh so yeah, we was at work and me and my co-supervisor team, lee, were talking and he comes over they're very excited with a box of chicken. He's got chicken and the box is in a bag. He's always in front of us like, hey guys, I got chicken, y'all want a piece of chicken. And we're hungry as heck and we're excited and we're like, yes, please, let's get a piece of chicken. And as I go in, balance, balance came into my head. Balance hey, man, hold up. And I was like, what's up? He's like I'll take it from here. Balance came in. Balance was like, visually, you remember, the equalizer Be myself.
Speaker 1:Irene, nah nah nah, were you talking about? As far as the changing, personality, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:But the personality was like the equalizer, like Denzel. Okay, denzel played the whole thing out in his head and then executes, okay. So balance came and he did the equalizing and I balance his like hold up. He walked over here with this box of chicken, wide open for all the air germs in the atmosphere to just jump in the box. Right, that was the first thing that balance saw. Then balance is like hold up, there's only two pieces of chicken left here. How long has this box been? Like what's going on? This ain't new chicken, right, yeah?
Speaker 3:And then, third, the real critical point in balance is situation. Balance is like his beard is directly over the open box and his beard was directly over the open box the whole time for whole trip. Okay, and then I was like then balance starts to speak to everyone in the room and he's balances like hey, don't touch this chicken. I don't trust him and his chicken in the way it was presented to us, gotcha, she's like what you talking about. And then I look at this guy. Balance looks at this guy and says it's chicken in your beard. This doesn't feel cleanly at all. I said we're not having your chicken, sir. We appreciate the offer, but we're not. This chicken's not safe and next time do not come with this chicken.
Speaker 2:But he didn't say it like that last week, no, he didn't.
Speaker 3:How did I say it? You're dirty, you're dirty.
Speaker 1:I did say you're dirty.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, whatever, let's not leave our key details. You can't expect me to remember everything.
Speaker 3:Balance said Anyway, there's a whole different person. I say you're dirty. You're right, you're dirty. There's chicken in your beard. Bring this batter next time. My partner takes a piece of chicken what the heck. So I go walking towards the break room. She follows me and then she throws the chicken. I said why you did that? She goes I didn't want to tell them what. You said that I can't do that. And I said how's that young man ever going to change? Ok, nobody tells him what the problem is. Ok, so I don't know how much later, a couple of days out of the month to the new year, he comes over to my desk to ask me questions, like on three occasions. I answer his question and I guess I realized I wasn't fully paying attention, because he comes over a fourth time and he's like you really didn't notice and I was like what are you talking about? He goes look at my face. I'm like, oh snap, he trimmed his beard and he cut off his mustache, the glue mustache. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So now you're thinking that he did this for you. No, I don't, either he did it for you, or he saw the show.
Speaker 3:I'm not going to. I don't give myself that much credit. I don't believe him or anybody does anything for me. That is his theory. Ok, you know why it's my theory.
Speaker 1:Other people's theory. You know why it's my theory? Because if he didn't do it for you, he wouldn't have made it a point to come over and show you.
Speaker 2:And he just did it and at Bachelors he was asking basic questions like hey, what day is it today?
Speaker 3:I don't remember what's the color of that desk. No, but you know what really complicated in this story was that when he came to me and revealed this and pointed out to me that's how he said it he's like, yeah, I cut it off, blah, blah, blah, I'm doing something different. But then he told other people the story and I don't know if he was kind of embarrassed. He told them that he cut it off by mistake on one side and then had to do it to the whole thing.
Speaker 1:Man, he didn't want to tell them. Man, he trolled me into shaving my mustache. You got that's. We're not even gonna say that, but we know because if I do something right for me, if I do something for me, I'm not gonna go to anybody and be like hey, did you notice something different?
Speaker 2:I'm not doing that, the fact that he brought up, even said that boom, right there.
Speaker 3:He did it for you, he's niche on himself. I'm not gonna just assume. Like you guys, I'm gonna give people the benefit of the doubt. I don't want to believe that I have that power over a person? No, this is many. I need to take credit quick Cause balance did it.
Speaker 1:See, man, he didn't do it. Balance did it. Me myself, an Irene style man, I don't know.
Speaker 3:I just don't want to sound full of myself. I'm not gonna believe that I trolled somebody into doing anything.
Speaker 1:We don't see what they say in the comments. I fully think that it was because of you, 100%. You got him to cut off his glue beer.
Speaker 3:I don't want to believe that.
Speaker 2:I mean, I did shave my knees today for you.
Speaker 3:Had nothing to do with me. I'm not gonna give any comments about your knees. You're the one that brought up your knees. Nobody ever did. I've dealt with Dominican women. Harry Neese is the least of our problems. Oh geez, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:At least you didn't say anything about the girlfriend or Markely.
Speaker 3:so why would I speak about angels like that? Angels are angels when they exist. You don't have to speak about angels.
Speaker 1:They just shout in the world. Every time we go to the Everglades, we go through Markely, oh my God.
Speaker 3:My heart starts racing. I want to go to. I'm gonna just spend some time in a Markely. Ladies.
Speaker 2:Listen, I've been there once for the Juneteenth celebration.
Speaker 1:They go hard. I went once, maybe like two years ago.
Speaker 2:I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1:In a Markely.
Speaker 2:Yes, it was live. I did not know they get lit like that. I didn't even know there was that many people out there.
Speaker 1:I love black women so much, that's how you gonna do it. I really do, man. I stayed in a Markely till I was like five.
Speaker 2:I didn't even know there was so many of y'all. Every time I drive by there it's always like quiet and there's not a lot of people outside, but everything looks really antique looking to me.
Speaker 3:Yeah it's very old. It is stuck in a time period.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it is for sure. Well, the casino, it's not in June too.
Speaker 1:You know what's crazy? The casino kind of sped it up to even worse at now. So it would have been older than that, but the casino being there kind of sped it up Because it was slower than that, but because of the casino I still got a lot of family down there actually.
Speaker 3:So I but I like to go down there for the top of spots. Oh my God, if I find a black man in a Markely here we go, man, he's going down y'all I need to.
Speaker 2:You need to start talking to my best friend, nelson. You guys would get along.
Speaker 3:I don't like talking to men. I'm cool with the male friends I have. I'm good I got their male perspective on lock. I'm 36 years old. I don't want new friends. I barely like the old ones around.
Speaker 2:I'm not getting new ones he likes, but you like us right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you and I are acquaintances. We're not friends, yet Y'all are friends.
Speaker 1:I feel like y'all are friends, but you have to.
Speaker 2:man, I'm like the best thing that has happened to you in the past, like two months, three months.
Speaker 1:I agree, I agree, I agree. I can see the change in you man. It's just Lena, cut All right guys.
Speaker 3:Hey, if y'all want to gas her up like that. If anything, according to her, I'm the one that has had a positive effect on her, because her knees ain't looking like Brillo pads. So who helped who? But we can move on from that.
Speaker 1:Oh man, so OK. So where do y'all want to go? We're going to give y'all an option. We can go to the Florida story, which I find very crazy. Or we can go to old TV shows. We can bring it back in the day From back in the day like old TV shows, Old TV shows from back in the day that you would bring back. Where do y'all want to go?
Speaker 3:I'll let the ladies choice. Try to be a gentleman.
Speaker 1:Look at you the change.
Speaker 3:See what I'm saying I've always been a gentleman 100%.
Speaker 2:Let's go for the Florida story.
Speaker 1:OK, so this Florida woman.
Speaker 3:OK.
Speaker 1:She woke up one morning. Imagine you waking up, right, you go to sleep, everything is normal right. You, everything is good, you do your normal Florida stuff, you live in your normal Florida life, and you wake up and your concrete driveway is gone.
Speaker 2:Yes, and you know, what really frustrates me is that we talk in a group, right, and I asked three questions and no one answered. I wanted to know what this driveway was made out of.
Speaker 1:Concrete.
Speaker 2:But was it like finished or was the beginning stage? That never poured the water in it, so it could like toughen up.
Speaker 1:No, it was finished. It was, it was finished.
Speaker 2:OK, and I have so many questions Like did you not hear a massive truck come and pull this out like Is she the only house in the whole? Fucking oh scoot.
Speaker 1:No, you're good, You're good.
Speaker 2:The whole neighborhood.
Speaker 1:Uh-huh. No well, they have neighbors.
Speaker 2:So the neighbors did it. You think so?
Speaker 1:Yeah, and it's a long driveway, it's not short, so they should.
Speaker 3:a lot going on here that we, that we're not even thinking about. Ok One.
Speaker 2:Does she get marble?
Speaker 3:Her neighbors hate her. She's hated by her neighbors Period, because there's like you said, there's no way somebody didn't hear or see anything. Yeah, so they were like, oh, this is happening to her. Good, I'm going to go back to sleep and let it happen. That's one, am I wrong? Look at that picture. Another question oh no, she had her car with her. Yo, they dug it out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yes, they took the whole driveway. She deserved this In Tampa area.
Speaker 3:Her neighbors hate her. No, but listen, because her neighbors hate her and somebody took the time to do such a useless task Because you're not going to get money for the driveway. This was to spite her. No, it wasn't marble driveway Look at the house. The house looks like it's worth 13 dollars.
Speaker 3:The house looks like we made it on the weekend that did not have a month. Look at the house. That house looks like it's made out of buckets, so they did not have a marble, so that means she's so hated. Somebody was like I'm going to go through so much work to get nothing out of it Because you can't go sell a driveway.
Speaker 2:So no, houses have cameras.
Speaker 3:Now look, did you see that house? I don't even got electric, probably Look at that house.
Speaker 1:I just don't know what you.
Speaker 2:When I saw this, it's so crazy Because this looks like a job that takes several people to do and several hours to do.
Speaker 3:As a matter of fact, we got to mix all of this up. Not only do the people hate her, and the neighbors hate her, and it looks like they clean after themselves.
Speaker 2:There's no debris.
Speaker 3:The neighbors helped whoever did this. The neighbors helped whoever did this.
Speaker 2:I'm more than convinced the neighbors have something to do with this and you couldn't say that drive in one piece.
Speaker 3:That means it was banged on and cracked and taken apart.
Speaker 2:Which means there's a lot of noise. She probably plays some music really loud.
Speaker 3:Her neighbors hate her she fine, bro, if she broke my heart, I'll do this. You were so picking all the right places too, so you'll do that. Yeah, because if she broke my heart, I'm going to miss her and I'm going to make her regret.
Speaker 2:So you think that's what happened.
Speaker 1:I asked so what's the pettiest thing you ever took in a breakup?
Speaker 3:I've never taken anything in a breakup. I've done petty things and said petty things, but I've never taken anything You've never taken like no, because I want an air pod I'm going to stop taking him. No, no, I'm not taking him.
Speaker 2:I love the other one.
Speaker 1:No, only take one air pod. No. Or take the Charger case. I'm afraid of the law.
Speaker 3:And I've dealt with crazy women and I don't want the cops calling me I'm not going to jail over an air pod Now. I don't take things. What have you like? Take things mentally and spiritually, but not physically.
Speaker 1:So you've never taken anything petty Like take all the pot lids.
Speaker 3:No, what's happening to me, though? The last shit I was with I go in the closet. She took all the pouches, but one of the stuff you add to the water to flavor it. She took all the pouches and left one. I bought those.
Speaker 2:Wait, you mean the seasoning.
Speaker 3:No, like you know those little things, the flavoring things that you put in the water. Oh, I took seasoning before To make the water flavor. She took all those packets and just left me one.
Speaker 1:I had just bought those. I took seasoning before I took the seasonings. I had bought them at the joker and I was like you know what she?
Speaker 3:took all the things that I bought and left the things that she bought Like I was going to remember her. I threw all of that away so quick. Oh man, this is good, except them three boxes of cornbread. They still there.
Speaker 1:Is that the last relationship?
Speaker 3:Yeah, oh my goodness, yeah the toxic one. Yeah All my potlids.
Speaker 2:It wasn't toxic, it was a learning experience, that's what we're going to call it.
Speaker 1:I like the way Lena spends it. Look at me.
Speaker 3:Sometimes learning experiences can be toxic. That was a mixture of both. I take responsibility for that relationship being toxic.
Speaker 2:And when you end something, never take anything from them, because that's a control thing.
Speaker 1:That's true.
Speaker 2:If you give something to someone, if you say here, babe, this is a gift for you, and you take it back, that's a whole controlling situation.
Speaker 1:What if you bought it for you? Just don't take my stuff. What if you bought it for you and they were using it and then you take?
Speaker 2:it If I never said hey, babe, this is for you, it's mine.
Speaker 1:So I took my seasonings back. I agree with that. No, I agree with that and you ain't going to be cooking. You know what I'm saying? I bought these seasonings for me, and no, I took my seasonings.
Speaker 2:But when it comes to feeding yourself, I'm not going to let so. I could hate you, but I'm not going to let you starve.
Speaker 3:I probably would have taken the pack, oh, and she took half of the Jarritos. You know, what that is right, jarritos, those Mexican sodas, the Mexican soda. Oh no, you got to go. I bought a whole box. She took half of them.
Speaker 1:You got to go to war for that For sure.
Speaker 3:No, but she took the nasty flavor.
Speaker 1:Oh OK, Well, you did. It's bad, but still damn it.
Speaker 3:I bought it.
Speaker 1:But whatever, Go ahead do you think the national with this? You kind of did your favor.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I come OK with that. She could have took everything, I don't care Like it's material stuff, and that just means like I got you If I drove you to that, like, all right, good, I got you, bro, now I'm not going to lie.
Speaker 1:I've done some petty stuff back in my younger day, not like, take somebody's stuff, I don't. I don't touch people's stuff. I had somebody set my car on fire before. Many don't remember that yeah Situation. I was out here.
Speaker 2:Y'all, I was out here. How are you messing with them coming such?
Speaker 1:I'm different.
Speaker 2:Basically your next line to get set on fire. Just know that that's a warning.
Speaker 1:First of all, I used to run track back in the day. I don't got it no more, but I had it back then. But no, I just. You know I'm cool. Now I've settled down and nobody's loved me that much. I'm solid.
Speaker 2:No one's loved me that much, but I've done some things. Please don't burn my car, I will cry.
Speaker 1:They got me. I got insurance. Show me, you love me.
Speaker 3:I walked outside and it was still a flame.
Speaker 1:The next one they was like hey, you're calling fire, I'm like what? And it was just so happened the time that I parked by the road. They got me. They got me. I still don't know who it is. That's love, Maybe. Maybe I kind of got an idea. Is that love? Hell, yeah, I kind of got an idea.
Speaker 2:But I'm toxic. You hear this right, he's like hell yeah.
Speaker 3:I want somebody to care for me like that, the most that happens is the flavoring package.
Speaker 2:No, I'm ready to sit down with you and have a conversation.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I know you ain't got good deed. I ain't got good deed, but damn, you know what I'm saying, pretending I did something.
Speaker 1:That's why I like serious, I'm not going to do nothing.
Speaker 2:Oh, I forgot. So yes, so when you argue, be like hey, babe, let's go watch some reruns of Twilight.
Speaker 3:Wait, no, these arguments. There's no saving things Once you have these specific arguments. There's no saving things, there's no. I don't care for those three in the morning Get out of my house.
Speaker 2:I'm trying to think the pettiest thing and I can't really.
Speaker 3:Okay, so we're gonna lie here.
Speaker 2:So no, no, no, no, no, it's been mine, or like episode 26 the lies. No, I don't like you know.
Speaker 3:I know why she's acting like she's never done things. I know why she's acting like she's never done things.
Speaker 2:I'm honest.
Speaker 3:I am very honest. You don't want to just say anything. I'm honest.
Speaker 2:I think you know what I did. I did cut holes.
Speaker 3:There you go.
Speaker 2:In clothes, no bleach on them too.
Speaker 3:What about bleach on them? No, bleach Just holes. No, there you go, that's it, that's the petty.
Speaker 2:I think that's the pettiest. That's okay and not to be rude, but I bought that.
Speaker 3:Hey, but listen, I'm gonna return the pettiness for her and I'm things getting worn with holes Everywhere.
Speaker 2:I know she gonna be at. That's her favorite restaurant.
Speaker 3:That's her favorite restaurant. I'm gonna pull up in your job acting like I need something from somebody else in the holes.
Speaker 2:Nipples out and all you can hold the nipples.
Speaker 3:That's your problem. We're pulling up.
Speaker 2:Oh, I did clear out their memory thing out of the PlayStation.
Speaker 3:You know this Hashish? Oh, that is petty. Yes, yes, yes, I don't do like crazy stuff like that.
Speaker 1:That's a memory. Was it NBA 2K?
Speaker 2:It was like three years worth or something.
Speaker 1:Is that NBA 2K?
Speaker 2:I think it was a basketball game. That's crazy bro. Slap my mother before you go to bed Go, slap my mother. Yes, I do remember that that's easy to take.
Speaker 3:Three years worth of NBA Memories just start coming back now.
Speaker 2:I think that's it.
Speaker 3:She's like, not that I think about it. I stabbed him in the sleep.
Speaker 1:So you never did nothing? I know there has to be something.
Speaker 3:No, physically nothing. My head is always spiritual or mental.
Speaker 1:Well, I can give us an example.
Speaker 3:No, I'm gonna say it's a way you don't gotta blur it out.
Speaker 2:So this last one on the way out.
Speaker 3:She's putting all her things in a bag, all of my things, apparently, in a bag, and then she's letting me have it and she's yelling. I'm like, alright, bro, I need you to hurry up Boom.
Speaker 2:You called it the B word, that just keeps bum. She keeps escalating.
Speaker 3:And then she's like FUU, fat, blah, blah blah. I'm like listen, just last night you ate, are we done? Can we go? Are we done? Do you need help taking this to the car? You know what I'm saying? I go for the gullet.
Speaker 2:I think so too.
Speaker 3:Then as we're cause we done. I'm not keeping tabs on you when I'm done, so that's your problem. I know I'm not that entertaining that, you just have to continue to watch my show.
Speaker 2:You just put one of her secrets out there, that's okay.
Speaker 3:She tried to get me fired and beat me up on two occasions. It's okay. Oh, okay, damn Two occasions. Yeah, oh, yeah, you did tell me that Last night I kicked her out. Anyways, it's all love.
Speaker 1:That's how you gonna end that.
Speaker 3:But listen, this is a new thing, she taught me too, right. So there's a lot of anger, even still. There's a lot of anger, cause I work with her. So I see her face and I get angry. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You work with her. She was on my team.
Speaker 2:She was one of my people. He was her supervisor. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait wait, wait. So you still clock in everyday and see this face.
Speaker 3:Yeah. There is no way. There's no way. I'm not gonna lie. You were her supervisor or what no, I wasn't dating with her. There was a big thing. So they found out we was whatever. So the plan was, we were just gonna move this girl to another team and we'll never talk about this again. And we were like cool, cool.
Speaker 2:How many shifts is there in your job? Is there just one like a 7 to 4 or 8 to?
Speaker 3:5? No, there's multiple shifts anywhere from 11 pm.
Speaker 2:She will have to sort the shift.
Speaker 1:Why I'm not gonna lie. I dated, so I'm gonna be sure they will.
Speaker 3:She already got a new boyfriend in the office. She's good.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but all the history and all the things you've told me, you still gotta see that everyday.
Speaker 3:That's not history. I was like 4 months. Oh yeah, all this. All of this happened in 4 months.
Speaker 2:In 4 months, jesus Christ, okay, alright, hey, that's what I'm telling you.
Speaker 3:Lena, that's what I'm trying to tell you. You know one person. I'm a completely different person in a relationship. I'm amazing. I'm a teddy bear. You're gonna experience 4 years in 4 months. I'm that.
Speaker 2:Listen, I did put a status up before I shut down my Facebook and what he comment I was like look at Manny, I just want to give him a hug wherever he's at. You shut your Facebook now, yeah.
Speaker 3:I need a break. Okay, I barely on Facebook, though. I'm sorry for interrupting.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so that last status, and then he comment something so positive. I'm like does someone hack his phone? I'm like, look at Manny.
Speaker 1:Is this really, manny? No, manny, do hit you with the positivity out of nowhere. Yeah, no, it's not. Y'all need to stop, it's just not on the weekends.
Speaker 3:No, y'all are gonna keep this up. 100% of the things that I say is positive. No, sometimes a punch to the face seems negative, but it's for the best. Sometimes, the punch in the face, you need that Really, y'all. I'm telling y'all. Y'all wrong, y'all wrong.
Speaker 1:I'm telling you.
Speaker 3:So the delivery is hard for a lot of you, but it's always the right message. Let me ask a question.
Speaker 1:Okay, would you have stole your ex's driveway? The last one, any one of your ex's? I would never do that. I'll take your driveway.
Speaker 3:The second. I'm done. I'm done and I'll tell you this. You know why I went in. I guess it's because of my ego. I don't want you to think that I care about you anymore. So when I'm done with you, you don't exist.
Speaker 3:I'm talking about. This girl walks by me and I'm looking at the concrete. You were ghost. I did that. So if I do something petty like that, I'm giving you power. I'm giving you the assumption that I still care about you. I'm giving you the assumption that you're not a trash human being. But I need you to know you're a trash human being. You need that reminder because until it kicks in that you trash, you're not going to know that you trash. So I would never give you. Once we've done this, you're not getting any attention from me at all. So you got my stuff, keeping you know what I do.
Speaker 1:Take a driveway Now. It's too much work Now. I like the most, that's an expensive. Yeah, like I don't go that. The most I've done is when I was with Charlotte and we were dating the first time. We were dating in the office because we used to work together. That's how me and Charlotte met. We were dating in the office and we ended up. We stopped talking at one point and she no longer existed than me.
Speaker 1:I threw away. She left stuff at my house. I said, hey, come get your stuff. And she was like I'm going to come get it. I said, hey, come get your stuff. We don't have anything to do with each other. She wouldn't come get it, so I threw it away.
Speaker 2:It was like a toothbrush.
Speaker 3:It was like a toothbrush and like some, there is something to that Hair weave, because with this chick I put a bag on her desk and left it, and then talked to her Only because I didn't want her to have a reason what if she can't afford?
Speaker 1:another toothbrush. That toothbrush was just for my house. She had another, so I was just like I bought her one from my house and then she wouldn't.
Speaker 3:I think there was something. I think he was trying to get it back. I bought all the stuff, so you have no reason to contact me anymore. All your things are there. You shouldn't be calling me, because you know what I'm trying to. I left this piece of paper with a poem.
Speaker 1:I'm going to go pick it up. No, she was messaging me through the little chat. She was calling me everything and I was like there's no reason. The only time that I messaged in the chat.
Speaker 3:Were you heartbroken?
Speaker 1:No, you need therapy. You should be heartbroken if you're not one of the person that you are anymore. Listen, I think out of all my life I've been heartbroken once.
Speaker 2:I don't think that was heartbroken. There's something wrong with that? I've been heartbroken once.
Speaker 3:I don't think I was heartbroken. Have you been in love more than once?
Speaker 2:Yes, why have you only been heartbroken once? Because one scenario I saw coming.
Speaker 3:You can still be heartbroken because you still care about the person. No, I've only been heartbroken once. What's your definition?
Speaker 1:of heartbroken. What's going on?
Speaker 3:here, guys. I don't think I ever I was heartbroken for a little bit because I had feelings for you. I'm going to take the truth.
Speaker 1:The way my mind works is I can stop talking to somebody tomorrow and it'll be no big deal. That might be a problem you sound like the problem. Everybody.
Speaker 3:I can literally be like alright, I'm like you too, you dead to me. I still suffer with it a little bit in some cases.
Speaker 1:I don't even think about it. I just move on with life.
Speaker 3:What that's why.
Speaker 2:I do this Well, remember my whole life. I was almost with one person for 70% of it. If I probably had multiple people during that time, it would have been something different. Maybe I would have had more than one time that I got my heart broken.
Speaker 1:But that's not the case Even with my kid's mother. You kind of got to get used to it. When you're with someone for so long, you get used to being without them. The way we broke up was weird. We had two kids already. We sat down, we had a conversation. Hey, this isn't working for either one of us. It isn't healthy for either one of us. We can still co-parent and figure out how to help each other get back on their feet.
Speaker 2:We can do it in our separate ways. Let's say, in 10 years you date five different women, but if in those 10 years you're only dated two women, you're only getting your heart broken probably twice. It's also that you probably experienced a lot of relationships and mine was just like my life was like, not like that.
Speaker 3:I'm not still thinking of leaving out something heavy. You just said that you were. I don't know how you cannot be heart broken if you're in love, well, it depends on how it is. I don't think it matters how. Even if the person had every justification, even if they were the worst person to you, this girl was mashing with me and I knew nothing about it. I got every reason to hate her right, I know?
Speaker 1:about that.
Speaker 3:Even though she was going on and she was trash, I was still like I had feelings. So I'm heart broken about the feelings that I had.
Speaker 1:Probably because it was abrupt too. It was like an abrupt end. Mines are never like tomorrow. It's just okay, we're done. It's more so like you see it coming. So when?
Speaker 3:I see something coming, I prep myself.
Speaker 1:You're already getting out of there.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so I'll start prepping my feelings.
Speaker 1:So it's not like a I think I go through my process while I'm still in it and then I'll get to that point and be like all right, we can go our separate ways. So I guess I may have some issues.
Speaker 3:I may need to talk to somebody, but even if you know, it's still like the finality wasn't there. I think there should still be like, even though it's not about you wanting to get back with them, but it's still like, okay, this is done, done for real, for real. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. There should still be some after effects to that. They may not be that serious, but there should still be something there.
Speaker 1:I think it's more so just getting used to being not having that person, and you know what I'm saying. I think that's the main part. Other than that, I didn't miss Because a lot, of, A lot of the relationship, especially with me. I wasn't happy. So it was like you know what I'm saying. So if you're not happy, you get to a place to where you're like okay, if I'm not happy, this is not making me happy. You identify what it is, you remove it and then you keep moving with your life. So I didn't really have.
Speaker 2:It's like it will hurt. I don't know about heartbroken, but it will hurt If that makes sense.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:But and it hurts more when you're being dumped, it hurts less when you do the dumping.
Speaker 1:Have I been dumped before? Oh, he's not always ruined. I always know, I know always really Ruin it. I ruined it always. If it's something that I don't want to be in, like, I always go out with a bang like I'm there's no, that's good, I like that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm going out.
Speaker 1:See, that's like there was one relationship that not a lot of people knew about, but I was in it for like two years and boy listen.
Speaker 3:Oh, that's how I did the church girl, that's how I got out of that one when I was trying to get with me. Yeah, she like um, she did something like it wasn't in. That, says to me, but I turned it into a big thing. Oh snap, that's how you gonna do me. I'm done Trying to fade. Find a way to be done.
Speaker 2:So you made it seem like it was her.
Speaker 3:Yeah, oh, no, it was her, no, no, it was her, no, no, stop, it was her. But, what she did wasn't a super big deal, but I made it into a super big deal. It was still her.
Speaker 2:It just wasn't that serious but I just made but you didn't have the courage to break up with her, so you made a little scene. No, I was gonna do it.
Speaker 3:But I was like, damn, this ain't right because you are the one that's messing this up. But I'm gonna end up looking like the bad guy when I end this. So I found a way to make her look like the bag.
Speaker 1:Do you care about that, though?
Speaker 3:What looking like, because I oh, not to other people, to me oh okay, not so I could care less with other people.
Speaker 1:They was out and listen. They was posting statuses about me. I was liking it. Oh man, that's amazing, I don't care what you say about me, boy, because it ain't stop repost it, put it on your story.
Speaker 3:In fact, don't mess with me, you ain't never tell a lie. Truth.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's probably why I'm glad I settled, I'm glad I'm done. I'm out the streets. I ain't doing nothing else, unless I become single again and I'm out here oh so they told you to sit down. Yeah, yeah, she that's my thing. That's what you got to be, that's what you told us to down.
Speaker 2:Yet Not yet.
Speaker 3:Okay, wait, wait, what I'm, as we what.
Speaker 2:I said I won't sit down until you tell me to sit down.
Speaker 3:Go ahead three of us have been in the position she's been in now, so it's a fish where everybody has been in this position. That's true and I think that's great. Um, what do I want to leave the people? Okay, stop being punks, man, just open your mind. Don't be so defensive. Don't be so offended, even if you don't like what you hear. Stop. Think about it. Take it in before you get so ridiculously emotional. Think about it. This is what I'm gonna say. You can learn. You can even learn from stupid people. Stupid people can teach you, even though they're dumb.
Speaker 2:So you can get something for a reason?
Speaker 3:Yeah, you can get something from anybody, as long as you're open-minded and are willing to listen. The thing you can learn is that I should never say what this dumb person just said to me. That's a, that's a lesson. So just be open-minded. Um yeah, stop, just chill, take it, relax, inhale, breathe, exhale. Come on, guys, okay.
Speaker 2:A gift can come in many packages.
