Speaker 2:All of that is subjective man, you're in no first of all you're in the place of. All of it is subjective. Yes, okay, but you're in the place of business and that body language does make it seem like you don't care if you ain't in the chair.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it might, you can't argue no you can't argue that.
Speaker 1:No, no, no, and I will always argue it for the simple fact of Uh-huh. If you're telling me that it seems like that means you're not sure yourself, that means.
Speaker 2:You're, you're so you're doing this shit that I just said I don't like as far as middle gymnastics, when you tell a motherfucker one thing or you're trying to discuss something and they just pick apart one word or one thing that made them feel a certain type of way and now you're talking about that rather than basically all the motherfucker was saying is can you please not lean in your chair when the big balls come, Because we in trouble.

Speaker 1:I mean Amen. You never know, man, people be really into it. Man, you know, I'm out here in the beach in my Al Capone suite in Cuba. Cuba, Cuba, got the waves and blue ocean behind me. You know, don't mind the glitchiness.
Speaker 2:A lot of glitchiness there.
Speaker 1:But yeah, I got a couple of stories man.
Speaker 2:First of all, you went to Wolf Trap.
Speaker 1:Went to Wolf Trap Saw Lupe coming Raspody or Rhapsody.
Speaker 2:Don't do her like that, man, come on man. Don't do her like hey did your wife, she like Rhapsody.
Speaker 1:I guess. So I mean, she was really there to see Robert Gaspody in a comment. I was there really to see Lupe. Yeah, I know, I know you. Some young kid got up there, conrad or Con-Cord or whatever his name was.
Speaker 2:Chiefs.
Speaker 1:But he got on the stage with his DJ. So in my head I'm like, all right. He was like, yeah, you know I was. My flight came getting canceled in Gladysburg. He flew me from Charlotte to here in his private jet. So I was like, oh, no one of you Jesus is out here because you were the opening act.
Speaker 1:So it's like when I went to see, like Snoop and Wiz at a Jiffy Lou and Kevin Gates was supposed to perform but he never showed up so they just had DJ. It was either DJ drama or DJ screen. That was just playing, you know, playing songs until the main act came out. So, and not that, even the guy was Not even at. The guy who came who said I showed up late because my flight had gotten delayed from Charlotte, that he wasn't supposed to open the store, that he wasn't supposed to be where he was. But in my head, if you're bringing out your own DJ, you know what I'm saying. You're bringing out your own DJ, your own everything. That means the original DJ that's out there doing stuff ain't supposed to be out there. You're supposed to have been the opening act and getting everybody warmed up because as much as it was about 50 years of hip hop.
Speaker 1:What he was rapping wasn't hip hop, it was rap. It was straight up rap, which was fine. He could flow, you could hear what he's saying. He wasn't mumbling, so it was cool. I didn't dislike it, but I was the only little body because he showed up late. He showed up when he did or he did a set. When he did Lupe set was cut the four songs. So when everybody else kind of got like five, six songs, lupe got cut the four. Common did his thing because everybody came to see Common. Right, I was like, yeah, when Lupe came out, everyone was standing, or I'll say like 50% of people were standing. When Common came out, about 75 or something. I was like, yeah, yeah, mike, and I was gonna say to my wife I told you everybody came to see Lupe, fuck that nigga Common. But Common came on everybody else.
Speaker 2:Come on now, both from Chicago, who you think they gonna? They gonna. Everyone's gonna stand up for Common Right, and I'm not saying we paid for it.
Speaker 1:It was an older crowd. Yeah, that too it was definitely an older crowd. So, like I said, you know it's, it wasn't that Common was the bigger draw, it's just that Common has the more classic hits, Right Like stuff that you can be like. I remember this from back in the day. And then Lupe has more of the more recent hits where he did he did the coolest. He did video game, he did dumb it down and he did kick push Right. So he's like can I do this song? That's was like nah, nah, nah, we got curfew. He's like, yeah, how y'all gonna cut my set short. You got Dion. Dion Cole was there, Was he yeah?
Speaker 2:Was he? Was he unseen?
Speaker 1:Now he just did a couple of jokes Like it was. It was the weird. It was weird. It was like, in between, is Robert Glassberg from Chicago? No, I think Robert Glassberg, I thought he was from like Houston or something.
Speaker 2:Okay, Nah, cause I mean you know Dion Cole, common and goddamn Lupe. That's like three Chicago names, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm not sure if Robert Glassberg is from. I'm not sure if he's from Chicago. I thought he was. I thought he was from the south. Yeah, he's from Houston. Yeah, that's what I thought, Cause his band was mostly from Houston Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. So, but you know, I mean now that he probably don't rock with Houston people, but he, you know, he rocks with, I think in my opinion, he rocks with, like hip hop artists, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not rappers, Not rappers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying. Not Southern rap Like he, he, he he Southern rap is hip hop.
Speaker 2:Don't do that. Don't do outcast like that, don't do that.
Speaker 1:I mean he don't rock with outcast.
Speaker 2:I'm talking about you said Southern rap I'm talking about. That's what you said. I'm talking about Kevin Gates. Go ahead and say I'm talking about Kevin Gates.
Speaker 1:I ain't saying I'm talking about Kevin Gates cause I don't want that smoke. I don't want him finding me talking about some. You talking about me cause, like what's up. Like you saying I ain't real rap, oh yeah, you don't like that country niggas, like I don't want none of that smoke.
Speaker 2:I don't think he comment like that. If anything, he put it no, never mind, yo. One of the wildest things I heard Kevin Gates talk about was him his interaction with this female when he was talking about Carisha. On Carisha, what is it called? Carisha, please, or Carisha talks, or whatever. The fuck. It was man he. I forgot what he said, but he just had her stunned. She ain't know what to say. She was looking like she needed help, like this nigga too nasty, like the shit was fucking hilarious.
Speaker 1:If we was together and I stepped out and I got fucked like we, not trippin' on her.
Speaker 3:You not gon' tell me.
Speaker 1:Is? I'm gonna tell you now.
Speaker 3:You ain't gonna show me the video. Yeah, nah, nah. So I can look at that bitch with you and just my shit, just rock up and I bust you up after I watch the video. You just gonna go just get digging, not tell me that's not gonna happen If I come in the house. I just got some food. Summer to tell you but I just punished a little bitch.
Speaker 2:Shit was fucking hilarious and she was just like he just had some shit that I haven't really said about it. He just had some crazy shit. Yeah, and I'm like is this shit real? Like who the fuck.
Speaker 1:Hey, I've been looking at the same meme where it was like I think I said to you the chicks were introducing themselves and it was the biggest thing that you knew was really transgender. And she's like hi, my name is this and I'm a bad bitch. And then, like everyone has been like overplaying what she says and be like my name is Megatron. I'm like that's fucked up, cause you know, as soon as everyone else is like, yeah, I'm such a bad bitch, blah, blah, and then she comes up my name is Megatron.
Speaker 2:Fucking hilarious.
Speaker 1:But yeah, so I got a question for you. I got a question for you, go ahead. So how do you feel? So let's say you, your sister is on cause it's a fema, right? So let's say she tells you a story about her messing with some guy, and then she cuts him off. But he all of a sudden just says, hey, I want to talk to you. And you're like nah, I want to talk to you. He just sends you a dick pic, don't you want to fuck me? And then we're like why'd you send that? And then he just they'd say to you well, what, you can't handle all this. What do you tell her to like? If she asked you, like, what should she do? Like, what would you tell her?
Speaker 2:What would I tell my sister if she got an unsolicited dick pic? Is that what you're asking me?
Speaker 1:Unsolicited dick pic with a thing of, oh well, what you can't handle this, what you don't want to, and then openly just saying, look, I'm trying to fuck what's up, and then send the dick pic.
Speaker 2:So hold up. So she don't want to right, she don't want to. No, she just what. I would tell my sister. I'm like yo, stop being a pussy and tell that motherfucker like it's a no go if he still persists, and block him Like what else is it to that? You know what I'm talking about. I don't understand. That's exactly what I tell her. It's funny. It's funny. It reminds me of a story. And this reminds me of a story. My homie told me one time he was working on his. I guess I can't say that he was working on somebody's car. I ain't gonna say who it was and what relation to who or whatever. Working on somebody's car or whatever, some. Yeah, a gap. I'm trying to not say too much because I wanted to say who. It was, not the name, but who it was, that's what.
Speaker 2:I was Right, right, right, working on somebody's car, right, he has an old boy's number, like you know, cause he's going to continue to work on his car and shit like that. And all of a sudden not all of a sudden my homie said one day he was doing something and then he got a dick pic from him, what? And then he said he takes back like yo, you good. And then he takes back, yeah, what you mean. And he says, like yo, what the fuck? You mean, what I mean? Did you know what you sent me? He was like what? And he's like oh, I ain't mean to send that to you.
Speaker 2:I was like man, he was trying you, buddy, he was trying you, cause that shit don't make no sense. If you talking to a girl, how do you? Yeah, he said he ain't talking to that guy like maybe like a couple of days, so I don't even know why he's at the. You know, he said I don't even know why I would be at the top of his like you know text message trying to have, or whatever. I'm like nah, he was, he was trying you. I was like boy, gay, I've had that. I've never had that, see, no, I remember the story you told me about y'all being at that haunted mansion thing and y'all was going through your phone. Because you was going through your phone and then a guy was being nosy, and so you, you know?
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, he didn't see it.
Speaker 2:I remember that story, this is a different story.
Speaker 1:It was a how do you act? Yo, he, the niggas should be nosy. You know what I'm saying. I had texted one of my one of my fraternity brothers right About coming out and coming to me and I said ironies, out in off route 40, like in the Ellicott city. So he's like oh nah, I ain't going to, I ain't going to be able to do it. I'm about to meet up with my girl. I said all right, cool. So you know me and one of the guys. We were like all right cool, so we just chilling. I get a text that says oh yeah, you are a bad girl. I was like what I say? Huh.
Speaker 2:That's a little different. That's already applied and it was supposed to be.
Speaker 1:It was supposed to be, but it was one of the things where it was like, dude, like Me, me and your girlfriend's name don't have the same name. Like she has a name, and mine is like there's no way you, you miss that. Like he's like oh yeah, you a bad girl, I ain't you. You want this, don't you? I was like, oh God. I was like, um, no, yeah.
Speaker 2:People need to be more careful man.
Speaker 1:And that's how you get caught doing dumb shit you ain't supposed to do, think you need texting the right person, and you know cause I've done that, where I was supposed to be texting my wife something and then I text my boss and I'm like I just told you.
Speaker 2:I've never been to show you. Why are you even? Uh, first of all, why are they both in the same phone?
Speaker 1:That's a good question. I don't know, because when I first got to my job they didn't give me my work phone, so he had to. He was calling and texting me through that. And so then I just like all right, well, whatever, Like I'm not getting taken off and taking it out, I was like fuck it.
Speaker 2:So I ain't never had no problem like that and I don't foresee me having no problem like that. That's um, I don't need to be texting and my response to my response time is horrible, so I'm not really going to make a big dumb mistake.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Back in the day I used to, I used to slip up a lot Like I'll be talking to two chicks, and then, like one time I text one chick what I was trying to text the other chick and she was like, what are you talking about? I was like, oh, nah, my bad. Um, it was supposed to go to someone else because something, something, something. I made up some excuse and she was like, oh, all right, so you want to go to Jasper's? I was like, all right, cool. And then one time I had I had called her.
Speaker 1:It was funny, it was, it was the same two chicks and I was going to see the one chick and I was calling her to tell her to open it. You know, I was at the door and then I called the other chick and I was like hello, hey, yeah, I'm out front. And she was like what do you mean? Out front? I don't see you. And I was like, oh, shit, my bad. And she was like, oh, what, she went to go see another girl. I was like, nah, I went to, uh, you know it's rush week. So I went to go and, um, pick up one of the kids. I was letting them know my front to come out. I mean you don't have to lie to me, it's okay. I'm like that's how new she has somebody else she was just trying to say oh shit, here's my opening.
Speaker 2:Let me, uh, let me let them know that this shit is not exclusive at all, right?
Speaker 1:So yeah, I've been in a couple of situations where I've text wrong or I've called wrong, but that was like back in my younger days, like in college, but that was back when I didn't care, like I'm, like I'm out of relationship, why am I, why do I care? Am I going this year? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, true.
Speaker 1:Now, when I was in a relationship, you know, since I didn't have all the moran or all those females around, I was like all right, you know, I never made those mistakes because it was only one person I was texting very consistently, right? But even now, I mean, it's only one woman I text, and that's my wife, and then I'll text my mom, my sister, periodically, but in essence it's always the first thing on my list is my wife's name, and then everyone else.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, true. That's how it should be as far as like the most recent or whatever, I have you, I don't know about those situations. I mean, I've been, I've been uh, can't even say that I've been careful I it's been a lot of. I just don't care and I also pay attention.
Speaker 1:Right, yeah, I mean that's half. The battle is paying attention. Like, if you're not paying attention, I mean and I get it, sometimes you're not paying attention, sometimes you're texting fast.
Speaker 2:Sometimes I've even done where um, where I um in the middle of text to somebody but another text comes in, I said that'll mean, yeah, keep on typing with a response that you seen on the preview of top and you be like, oh shit, no, not true.
Speaker 1:Like sometimes I'll I'll text it Like cause it's been time, I've been like, all right, cool, that text coming in and I'll like hit the reply button on the screen. So the little small window box comes up and I'll text it like okay, boom, whatever, whatever. Then I go back to texting, them texting, not realizing that it didn't put me back in the same text. It took me to that person who I literally just text and sent that measure to it, took me to there. So then I'm texting and I'm looking like, oh God, I just sent this text to the wrong person, right, yeah, he's sending those. That wasn't myth, that wasn't for you texts. Because even when I get them texts and they're like, oh yeah, you talking about Casper and they're like, oh no, that was for my sister. Like I know it wasn't for me, because if this is, I don't know what the fuck we talking about.
Speaker 2:talking about, so I know it ain't for me.
Speaker 1:Like I've had that like a parent. I had a parent text me after we had a solidified the deal. She sent the contract back over and she was like, yeah, like are we? Are we still going out to go see Casper at seven steps? And I was like I know it's not for me, so I didn't think nothing. Then another test came in. I'm like oh my, oh my, so sorry, it's not for you. I said oh, I know, because I don't know who Casper is and this is professional work. This isn't. This is go out like Right, right, right.
Speaker 2:True, yeah, man, I have a. Yeah, speaking of that homie, that dude sent him a dickpicking shit. Same situation kind of happened with him again, but at this time it was a girl he used to mess with and, long story short, the girl said her phone got hacked, but basically it sent a bunch of porn to him at like two o'clock in the morning, like from point of and shit like that. And he was like, nah, this motherfucker was rubbing one out, she was, you know, flicking the bean and shit and probably fell asleep with the phone or something or moves and shit like that. And actually when he sent this shit to a bunch of people, nah, she sent that to him for real. Nah, maybe, but it don't make sense. Why send the porn?
Speaker 1:Which would they want you to do to her? Nah, well, no woman.
Speaker 2:I mean, look at our age, if you were still out there and you just send them links to porn, like you a fucking, a fucking teenager and shit. That might be the reason why you sing. I'm just saying.
Speaker 1:Hey, it's a possibility.
Speaker 2:You supposed to be. You supposed to be sending bussy wives to people and shit like that or sending some good go-go shit.
Speaker 1:Busy, bussy ride, hoping to get to love. Bring it back, Okay.
Speaker 2:Can't believe you made that joke. I cannot believe it. I cannot believe it, I cannot believe it, I cannot what you mean Look, you know, you gave me the opening. I said I ain't giving you that. I wasn't a layup, that was.
Speaker 1:No, that wasn't even that.
Speaker 2:That's Jordan pool, where somebody opened at the bottom of the bottom of the bottom of the bottom of the basket and you still pulling the chip from 40. That's, that's what that was. That was not a layup. It wasn't a layup. There wasn't an alley, there wasn't anything. Hey, I switched it.
Speaker 1:Yes, you did. At least in my head I thought I switched it. But yeah, so, so, so, that was one, so that was one story where the chicks and she got the big picture.
Speaker 2:So, what'd you tell her?
Speaker 1:So I was pretty so when she told me the story she was pretty much a guy with. She was like you remember that guy met at that school on the west side of Baltimore, or was it East Side, doesn't matter, it's in Boston, yeah, it's in Boston, it's in Baltimore. I'm historically black schools, um, and I met him. I was drunk, blah, blah, blah. So you remember she met him. She didn't hear what he was saying, got the number, he started texting the crazy shit and was like oh yeah, now that's my.
Speaker 2:Doos be having no chill. It was just like yo don't get a girl away Like right. One more Like what do you all?
Speaker 1:be doing, cause she was like one time she was on the phone with him and he was in like somebody walked with the car and he was like, oh no, that's his cousin he talking to. So she was like I already knew that a chick who he'd been talking to pulled up to the door. I'm like I mean, I understand, it's college and you know you don't want, you don't want to fuck up your pepper, but you also got realized what's the point of life with Jane that ain't yours? Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1:Because you know what she's going to do. Like we ain't exclusive. Like yeah, I'm messing with another dude.
Speaker 2:She's going to tell you straight out she might as well do the same thing, but um she's not going to tell you straight out no, there's, no, there's no, because that one, well, in our day they didn't want to be seen as hoes. I can't believe. I'm saying in our day we were back in college, back in the back in college, like back in college years. Was that like the early two, uh, the mid two thousands?
Speaker 1:I guess you can call that Mid 2000s, the early tens, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like back at. Yeah, back in that time, like, yeah, like that girl. Still, you know they didn't want to be seen as hoes. So nowadays girls don't give a fuck what you think I must have.
Speaker 1:I must have, I must have missed that thing, because I had girls tell me off the back like yeah, we're not exclusive, so if I mess with whatever dude, why the fuck you met, why the fuck I'm oh?
Speaker 2:you also went to school in Baltimore.
Speaker 1:Well, you don't be seeing, got that many uh, that they should be even denying. You know, it's one thing if I want the cop in, or Morgan, or Howard, or you know a school that had a huge population of female men, and of attractive ones at that. Where so you was?
Speaker 2:busted Five. I was, hmm, you was busted Fives.
Speaker 1:Um, to be honest, I only, I only go ahead and lie. I only fuck two girls at you and be that that attended UMBC. Yeah, okay, I got you. I only fuck two girls that attended UMBC. Other than that, I met chicks while being at UMBC at things, but other than that I didn't as far as like dating someone on campus or that went to the school, it was like two. That was it because I still was coming home every day. So, oh, yeah, I mean I'm like man, look, I'm coming back home, but deal with this stuff out here. You know I ain't trying to deal with the, you know whatever, but so what'd you tell Shorty.
Speaker 1:So I told Shorty. I said well, I mean you can block him, or do you want to fuck him? I might have him like, do you?
Speaker 2:want to. Yeah, I'm not saying, I'm not saying that shit's about sister. Do you want to fuck him? I don't want to know. I mean you don't. You know, just be, just say what you guys say. Say it with your chest, not with your chest, but you get what I'm saying. Say it with confidence and let it be that like block them or fuck if you need to.
Speaker 1:It's like because you say it like all of it happens and you didn't block him off the back, or you block him and then you unblock him, and now he does that, and then then he, then he's like, she's like, I got a face time from this random number, so I answered. I was like, well, why was it?
Speaker 2:Well, I don't understand one way, Like you'll block him and then unblock him and be like this is why I block you. What did you think was going to happen, Right? Oh, you put them. You put them up and time out from reaching out to you. Now I've been trying for like a month or two. He gets through and they'll block means that you don't need that energy in your life, so you just kind of that's a forever thing to me. Once you block them up, that's a forever thing, Right.
Speaker 1:Like for me, like I said, you seem to just give guys so many chances Like it's literally you'll give them, you'll give them a shot to the fuck it up themselves.
Speaker 2:Listen, I ain't, I ain't back in our day. Did you get chances like that? No, I didn't. No, I didn't either. So I look at the medium ugly I was. I don't know.
Speaker 1:In my head. In my head, I'm not medium ugly, I don't know what I am to them, but I'm probably am. I'm like medium, medium ugly or medium. Here I'm just medium, like, like, like, like a good, well-prepared steak, just just like. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:So I mean, I just thought I was like well, I told I said you might just want to think about the selection of guys that you've given your number to Like. You're giving your, you're giving your number of face, you're giving your Facebook to any guy and then you give your number to guys who passed the Facebook portion of it or the Instagram portion of it, where you just give them your Snapchat or your Instagram Like but like, what does that really accomplish? In that? I mean, even I, if I was growing up and growing up in this in this particular phase, it would be I can get past the Instagram part of it. That's easy. Just don't fuck it up and then have a decent.
Speaker 2:Well, anybody, get past the Instagram thing you can buy accident. It's not even getting passed Like yo. They want to be seen. That's that's not a. That's not a thing. The DM is the thing. She can either respond or she don't. Like I said last episode, I'm glad I ain't always like that.
Speaker 1:But her, her and the Hickey girl was like, yeah, crazy, my, like I'd just be giving niggas chances for no reason, like even even the niggas. It was like, yeah, you know, do you remember that dude? I told you about that. I used to mess with him. He always checked all the boxes and then he left and went to Delaware and said that he wanted to see me, but he had a girlfriend. Yeah, I went and saw him up in PA. Yeah, we'll just say that time wasn't wasted. I'm like so he still got a girlfriend. So he was like that, ain't she was like that, ain't my concern. Like I was like well, I couldn't be mad at that Cause, like if, if he going to throw himself out there and you got a girl and you, you still going to fuck this Jane here, like I was, like I get it, it's not your concern, but it's your concern when he pulled up to your front door.
Speaker 2:That shouldn't be. That shouldn't even be a. I ain't about to get nobody tips on do that, but yeah, shouldn't even be a thing. Yeah, I mean they, they stayed away. It shouldn't even be a thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, but they it was like man since you left here, man like we just not that they've been running wild, but it is like man like shit, just been crazy with the people who they've been messing with. They like, when I say it was telling me these stories, they didn't sound real and I was like I'm like wait, you said a guy did what, like so you had one dude that that hit her back out of nowhere, sent her to pick then FaceTime. There was like so you don't want to fuck me with you, you don't. You don't like my ass, or something like fuck you, bitch.
Speaker 2:I was like that's, that's some drugs right there, Because come on man yeah, this, he had this.
Speaker 1:He had another dude that she was like messaging on Instagram and he had asked her like oh yeah, so when we going out, she said, well, let me know. And she was like she says something about, well, what she said she was eating or she had gotten some food. He's like, well, where's my food? Oh, I get you next time. She said, well, he was like oh yeah, well, next time we should be married. And I'm like what? Yeah, she was like married. He was like, yeah, I'm like where did he like I don't, or maybe we didn't have social media back then like that.
Speaker 2:And also you don't know how true this shit is. Those were messages. Oh, never mind.
Speaker 1:These are, these are exact messages. That's what he said and that's why I was like and like, like when she was telling me the story, because you like, I told you, I know, they put you know her and they put you know. She's like oh, you think I'm bullshitting? Oh, nah, and she showed me that, she showed it to me and I'm like.
Speaker 2:I just could not think of jumping out the window like that.
Speaker 1:So so so so quickly, and so not so hard yeah.
Speaker 1:Just jumping out here and it was funny because one of my boys one of my boys is I went bowling Saturday with my old coworkers and it was like, see, like he was just like you kind of understand, like it ain't like when we grew up and you had to really spit game Like these two chicks they're cute, you know, guys just throwing themselves and they just do what they think they think they want to hear, based on how they dress and how they look. So they think that they're the same chicks they see in these videos and on these things, that they just looking for big digs and money.
Speaker 2:And I'm like I think a lot of that is because if you don't tell her with them, if you don't tell them all that dumb shit of what they want to hear, then, they don't, they're not checking for you, they really it's kind of like.
Speaker 2:It's kind of like. It's kind of like I'd say this is my homey, I might have said it to you too Like it seems like nowadays women think that women that are dating, they think the simps, are the majority, Because that's what they kind of. They kind of hear that stuff and rap music from females and stuff like that. I'm gonna make them buy me this, this, this and that, and blah, blah, blah. He telling me this, he telling me that they think that's the majority and it's kind of like nah, that's still a very, very small minority. So in order for guys to kind of get that, get in like that, they lie about all that other dumb shit and then you realize like, oh, he really ain't that. Like no, motherfucking, he's not that.
Speaker 1:I mean, I mean it's hard to tell this younger, this younger crew that like you get, you get them that like, oh, I don't like the girls that allow, but then you walk around with your pants sagging you know what I'm saying, so even even the chicks who might really like you, that are like, well, I just want a guy who has his pants up and not allowed and everything else.
Speaker 1:You don't check all their boxes, just like you. The chicks who are loud, who are like popular that you don't, you don't check, you don't? They don't check your boxes. And then the ones who are silent. You know, like I was a silent person, people, a lot of people I knew were silent, people that on the load, that if you just got to talk to them you realize they just cool as shit. Or they even even the ones like the quiet girls back in the day who were cute as shit, that until, like, the popular guy started talking to him, no one noticed them. And this is like you're like, oh wait, you mess with him. Yeah, like he. I met him at and it's like it's like watching Greece. Oh yeah, I met him out one time and he was so nice. I said you know what? I think it's like a whole asshole. I'm laughing at you.
Speaker 2:I've never seen. Greece you never seen Greece. No, I'm being polite and shit I'm like no, I'm not about to be polite, I have not seen that movie.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I give you a 15 second rundown, pretty much, and this is from the beginning of the movie. Okay, so you got. You know, like you remember, in the outsides you had the Greece and the so says. So it's like what? Oh God, I know I don't read books, but, nigga, you don't read books. What is the outsiders? So it was like a book about a gang, like a white gang, pony boy, pony boy. There you go.
Speaker 2:Okay, yeah, so something clicked. I'm like hold up, this sounds familiar, I don't remember. I don't remember the end of that book, though.
Speaker 1:So Greece? So Greece is like imagine pony boys crew and like this guy, he goes on vacation to this country and he meets this, this and the square girl like she's a super green, she's super like polite, she's not like your typical, oh yeah, like I'm about to let you hit Blase, blase or whatever. So he's there, he's being, he's being not him, he's being this gentleman, he's being nice to her. They're having like walks on a beach and as soon as he gets back home, he's back to being like gang leader. But he's not in the gang and they're just a bunch of guys who think they're cool, wearing leather jackets and tight pants and shit. Obviously, obviously, I'm playing gangsters.
Speaker 2:I got you.
Speaker 1:I'm playing gangsters, but that's how I kind of see it. It's like you're one way here and then, as soon as you get around your people, all of a sudden, now you, now you big gangster, like man, I'm out. No, hey, what's up? Yeah, I saw you. Like it's always the funniest shit. I always see where, when I was back in high school, do do beat niggaz asses and all of a sudden the girl's like, oh, he's so nice, like he like rubbed my feet in the thing.
Speaker 2:It's going to be nice to one. That's what you're supposed to do as a man Like you. Show your softer side to women. Everybody else get their hardship.
Speaker 1:That's what it is, but the only reason why I didn't always sound believable is because we all knew the chicks he dated and they all gave a totally different story of like nah this is the guy?
Speaker 2:Oh, he was an asshole Right.
Speaker 1:So that's that's grease in a nutshell, Like he would talk to chicks at the school and because he had an image to maintain, that's how he treated them.
Speaker 2:But when you went out, I got you. I'm never going to watch this movie.
Speaker 1:That's what Volta did his thing in that joint man. This is before Saturday Night Fever. And I was saying that either me neither, but those were his two biggest moves before his career almost ended. And then he got it Pulp Fiction and his career got revived. I know you're a big shit.
Speaker 2:Nope. So what do you mean? His career almost ended.
Speaker 1:Well, when he was doing an interview one day he said that after Greece and, I think, saturday Night Fever, the movie roles he was taken weren't necessarily profiting him and he weren't making. He wasn't making no money doing these movies. And then it was like a span where he was like he was thinking about like maybe I should just like stop acting. He got in Pulp Fiction and then we got to John's of Volta, we got now. So that's the. That's the summarize story of of his interview.
Speaker 2:Okay, Never knew that. All right, so boom your birthday. Football season 2K24 all in one week. All in one weekend. How does that?
Speaker 1:feel it feels that the skins one and I still haven't created a player on 2K and it's a lot harder than what I thought it was going to be. But I feel like this next gen player creator has gotten harder each year. Yeah, this is weird. Like I remember the first year that next gen that came out and building your player was so easy. They let they pretty much let you build whatever you wanted. And the following year was it was still the same, but it was a little often. As it's progressively going on, it's progressively gotten harder to build your player. Yeah, so, but I mean, I like how they're putting that balance in there and the gameplay just seems a little. Sometimes it seems a little slow and laggy a little bit, but it is what it is, Right, Right, Right. I guess that's the I want to the feel of realistic-nessism.
Speaker 2:What yeah, whatever word you just said, the realistic-ism. Come on, man, it's like three parts of that word, so what? There's actually two parts of that word and you added too many. No, okay, two different words, realism.
Speaker 1:But I guess that's just what it is Like. Scoring is a little different. I still don't understand the shop meter and I still don't understand the whole new pick up a point of your release to help your timing. But I'm like it's very vague, it's very everything. So I'm just like this is so weird. So, all right, I'm just kind of dawg.
Speaker 2:I just dove right in. I'm like, all right, this is what I'm creating, I'm gonna stick with this shit. As long as you can score and got defense, I'm good to go. Because, no, no matter what you create, if the community all plays one way, and that's just what it's gonna be.
Speaker 2:It ain't shit. You can really do Like, you can have fun on your own time and with your squad and shit like that. But if everybody like, all right, this is the best build and there's 50 million builds like that that you play against each and every time, they don't make a difference. They don't fucking make a difference to me. So that's just me. That's just me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I thought about making a center only because I know you said you were going to power forward. My boy, fleazy, said he was going, he was still being point guard, but he's a bigger point guard. I was like, well, a center would make sense, especially if you're still a stress, and then I could just be down in the pain. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but that also takes away from when you're going down in the pain too.
Speaker 2:I figured this year I'm just going mid range and mid and out. I don't think I'm going down in the pain, except on defense Right Offense. Y'all got that shit, because I have no success in that shit at all.
Speaker 1:I honestly have no success in being a stress big. I try to make a stress big one time and I just, if I'm making stress big and I want to be a good three-point shooter, then I don't want to be limited on what my three-point rating can be and it's like, oh yeah, you cap out at 80, 82, 79. I'm like that's dumb. I don't want to cap out there. If I want to be a shooting big, I want to be like Bill Lambeard. If his three-point rating was put on 2K it would be like an 86, 87.
Speaker 1:Because for his time you didn't have big men stepping out to a three-point line shooting a three, and that's in the 80s. You didn't have big men stepping out to a three-point line. In the 80s, early 90s, I think the only person you had stepping out to that three-point line was like Sam Perkins. Sinners I'm not saying not big, but sinners didn't step out away from that pain. And Bill Lambeard, he was a big dude that went into the pain outside. And Sam Perkins wasn't necessarily a big man that went to the paint, but he was like one of your very first stress centers stretch fives.
Speaker 2:I can't think of anybody until Nnewitzki came. Yeah, I mean, that's the only I mean, because yeah, yeah, I mean as far as sinners.
Speaker 1:I mean you had power forwards that could shoot the ball like there was.
Speaker 2:Nnewitzki. That's what I was going to say. Nnewitzki wasn't a center. He was a center towards his later years. Yeah, which is crazy that you can do that, but yeah, I was a Derrick Nnewitzki man. Derrick Nnewitzki.
Speaker 1:I mean, could you have power forward Like because think about Charles Barkley was a power forward that shot three. But he was six, yeah, so I mean you have power forwards. Anything from the four down, they could shoot the ball. It was your centers that you didn't traditionally see shooting the ball. Bill Lambeard was your rare commodity and there's probably somebody else way back in the day that I just don't know because I didn't watch Vassmore in the 70s because I wasn't alive. But you know, here in New York.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's film. All this tape, all this.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there is. But as far as sinners now, I mean what you got, like Anthony Davis shooting threes, you got Miles Turner shooting threes, you got Big Cat shooting threes, all right, like it's almost almost every center. I'm not going to say almost every center, but you got a lot of centers that can shoot at least 15 feet back Right and that's, and that's like mid range, mid range to deep mid range. So you got, you know, centers that can shoot now.
Speaker 2:So right, so, yeah, they definitely out there. I can't wait for the season to start. Yeah, see what, uh, when they are going to look and how all the rookies want to look is pretty much what I'm going to see.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're going to get some low ratings on two care, not one bit. Now they didn't get one day low rating, but majority of them they gave a little rain, like when they got like a 82, right, something like that, yeah, yeah, but I mean for, but that's also because he's the only. I'm not going to say he a star, but he's probably like one of the better players on the team. So you can't just have. I mean you can, you can definitely. They've done. They've done that to Toronto, where their best players are 79.
Speaker 2:All right so yeah, I was watching, um, I was watching the interview. I think I might have sent it to you. It was like a little clip of Regina King. She was somehow like how she was a voice in Riley and you and stuff like that, and she was kind of you know, looking at the iPad and shit. It was a clip and it was like um, damn, he was probably was like um, I forgot what it was, but he was like man, that's just like going to heaven and you seeing God's spoken crack. And she was like ooh, shit, like she didn't even remember that she did that line. And she was like, yeah, that was a little out there. And I was like, yeah, I remember that shit, I remember that.
Speaker 1:Hey, but you know what it was funny?
Speaker 2:Yo, I don't think God though.
Speaker 1:Me and my wife would watch the boondocks and she and I think my wife doesn't have a stomach for a lot of stuff but for the boondocks because of the full outrageous my dog, it did bother. Like I think Uncle Ruckus was her least favorite person because she's like, see, she's like man, fuck that nigga Uncle Ruckus. Like it was just like it ain't real, it ain't real.
Speaker 2:It ain't real.
Speaker 1:Anyway, cause everyone you know when I'd be at my old job they'd be like yeah, man, the only reason I watched the boondocks because the guy's from Howard County and I could see all the shit he talking about. I'm like like I would really know that dude's from Howard County or what the university in Maryland Like I could care less, I just thought it was a fuck.
Speaker 2:I knew he went to the university of Maryland. I didn't know he'd grow up in hell. No, I ain't know.
Speaker 1:it was Howard. I ain't know either, but you know what, looking at the boondocks it made, once someone told me that all of his characters made sense.
Speaker 2:So it makes sense to me now too. So I always thought, cause the place was called Woodcrest, that the closest Woodcrest you get is Woodmore. No, because he's from Maryland, Sorry to talk to you, you know, but Woodbridge is, you know what's a good one too.
Speaker 1:I mean, look, I thought, when he said Woodcrest, I thought Woodbridge, I didn't think Woodmore, I did. But and look, they say oh, you from Howard County, like Columbia. I was like oh all right, well.
Speaker 2:Shout out to.
Speaker 1:Aaron, yeah, shout out to Aaron. And it said that he left. He left his creation. But you know, sometimes you got to go to bigger and better things. Like you outgrow your shit sometimes.
Speaker 2:Listen, when John Willis won and his son wanted to voice do the you know, take over as the voice actor and he sound just like his dad and they told him no. I was like I'm done with this series Because his son JD sound just well, that's yeah, son JD sound just like him. Like, just like him. It's fucking hilarious. Oh, they told him no.
Speaker 1:Yep, told him no, I was wondering if they were ever going to do another episode, Another one more. Like I was always like, just do one more season. Like I know they had this season one, season two, and then they stopped for a minute, Then they did the final season. I'm just like man, I would love to see one more season of the boom, Just to see how outrageous not even how outrageous, Just to see what kind of shit could they come up with.
Speaker 2:Shit King of the Hill coming back. Really, I hope you ever watched that. Yeah, yeah, I've watched that.
Speaker 1:What they got to play there, it always came up after the Simpsons and you know the Simpsons was like that. And then you get King of the Hill. It was like where the fuck that show?
Speaker 2:King of the Hill was dope. Shout out to King of the Hill. But the guy that played Dale Gribble died not too long ago, a couple of months ago. I don't even know how they're going to do that. He was like 50 something.
Speaker 1:Like I used to go to my boys house. We used to do. We used to do Stubbo was on his birthday, so it'd be a bunch of us over there. We used to watch Beavis and Butt Head and I still couldn't understand that Beavis and Butt Head ain't my thing. It wasn't my either, and South Park wasn't my thing either. But then, South Park grew on me when I saw Butt, butt is bottom bitch. And then I was like oh, reason, not reason.
Speaker 2:Was it reason, not yet? No, no, I wasn't reason, but I get what you mean. Butt is pimping on that motherfucker.
Speaker 1:He was pimping on that J, because it was just so funny. He was like it was a pimp talking to me. You know what I'm saying. He's like yes, sir, I do know what you are saying I'm like I still.
Speaker 2:I mean, South Park is funny, it's just I'm not. I mean, you know, it's it ain't me. It's funny as shit, though there are clips I've seen. I'll be like man, this shit is too outrageous. We it's too. It's, it's yeah.
Speaker 1:I honestly think people watch it just to see what they're going to say about something political. Like, like I haven't watched South Park since I left college and or since I graduated. I didn't leave cause since I graduated from college and they told me, nigga, you got to go unless you're doing grad school. So I didn't do all that. But I mean just in general, like since I was in college I haven't watched South Park. But like, literally the dudes I would live with, they were like watch South Park just to see if they were going to talk about or do something that they had saw in the media. So like, let's say, the insurrection happened when Biden got elected. Yeah, they would, yeah, they would watch South.
Speaker 2:Park, just to see. But they was watching it politically though, right In my opinion.
Speaker 1:They were watching politically and they wanted to see what kind of fun it will make of it. Like I was just like so wait, we're watching this just to see what they're going to say. Like when they did the episode where the guy was standing outside and being naked and jerking himself off and pub. Never seen this, you never saw that episode. No, I watched it. Oh man, I forgot that song they put. I think it was like jerking into San Diego, something like that.
Speaker 1:He was like it kept making references to it, where it's like you know what? This is, what's going to happen, you're going to do the and you're going to be naked and jerking in San Diego. Like I don't know if it was San Diego, but it pretty much. They kept referring to this same line. And if this guy doesn't get his light together or just get the kid, he's going to be standing outside naked jerking himself off in this city. And I was just like why do they keep referencing that? And they just and everyone looks at me like you didn't know, you didn't hear what happened. I was like, no, yeah, there was some guy outside jerking, naked and jerking. I was like, oh, makes, complete sense.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I, that must be Rick and Morty. I like Rick and Morty, but sometimes, like I said, wifey can't stomach that shit either. Let me show outrageously, outrageous sometimes. Yeah, my wife likes Rick and Morty, I like Rick and Morty.
Speaker 1:I don't know if she ever watched it, but I don't see how Rick and Morty served. But she knew who they were, so I'm assuming she used to watch it. Hey babe, did you use to watch Rick and Morty? She said a little bit, not a whole lot, gotcha, ok, so that makes sense. God, we were talking about cartoons.
Speaker 2:Two grown men talking about cartoons.
Speaker 1:Two grown men talking about cartoons. You OK up there, baby, your food's down here, all right, you coming, ok, yeah, she's coming, yo, so.
Speaker 2:Yo, like over the last couple of days, or I found myself playing mental gymnastics with damn near everybody, really.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I had no clue what mental. I had no clue what mental gymnastics is, but I know what it means.
Speaker 2:You, you you've done some form of it just by you being out there in the dating world and shit Like well, not now, but when you were out there in the dating world, you've done some form of it, trust me. But nah, man, it's just it's. It's been like well, I didn't even hit that Like with one of my homies, right, like he's going through some. That's not funny, but he's going through some some lady problems and shit like that. So sometimes when I be talking to him, I'm like all right.
Speaker 2:So when she said this, what did you say? And I'll be like well, I can see why she fucking mad at you. Like, because he's not, he thinks he's saying things one way or it's the kind of you know, she's perceiving certain things. So when I be asking him questions or getting them, you know, trying to give him pointers and shit, I literally have to ask One question and three different parts just for him to be like oh, I get it. And I'd be like Jesus Christ, man, I'm like, and he's older than me, I was like I shouldn't be coaching you. If anything, you should be coaching me on certain things or whatever, every.
Speaker 2:But it's been like all week with that shit, all week with him by alone girl, just like when I be talking to her and I'll be like please get out of your feelings, stop fixating on one word that I said and arguing about that one word and not the fucking. The whole context of the of the discussion that we have in like it got me thinking, like I'm starting to think like people really just don't know how to communicate with what other people. Yeah, you know, you know you supposed to do that thing where I was like okay, you talked to a certain people, you know a certain type of way, but even when you talk to people certain, you know different people. Even when you don't talk to people all the what am I trying to say? Even when you don't talk to everybody the same way, there's still a bunch of shit lost in translation because you don't know what their mental fortitude is.
Speaker 1:That at that time, like like you literally be given yeah, you can literally About the mental gymnastics, yeah, okay, and you could literally be saying three words and they would think those three words mean something else.
Speaker 2:Right, it's like you say, yeah, I want to I want a pizza.
Speaker 1:Well, it didn't all say go somewhere totally different. No, here you go, I want a pizza.
Speaker 2:So you just don't like chicken, like I didn't say I ain't like chicken, I want chicken, I like chicken too, but you want pizza. I'm like yes, because that's what I want. So you don't like chicken because I want chicken. I was like, no, that's that type of shit, the mental gymnastics of that type of shit. That's right, okay. So that makes complete sense.
Speaker 1:That makes complete sense. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:Like I'm, I'm, it's, it's one of those things where I'm like all right, I need to.
Speaker 2:Um, I'm not going to change, I'm not going to change, I'm not going to change. So I'm just like I just need to take a break from people, because this is, she's getting out of hand. She's getting out of hand. I don't know if I'm just agitated or whatever. I have you, but it's like I really don't understand. You don't understand basic shit. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't, I don't know if I I mean, I probably do go through mental gymnastics with people. I just don't know what I do.
Speaker 2:Like we had a a stack Because they conditioned you already. That's the problem. They're not letting one person condition me for their fuckery and how they perceive the world.
Speaker 1:We had a staff meeting and they were like yeah, you know, we. So we did a mock staff meeting before the staff meeting. Why? Because the person that was going to be on there like is our, is everybody's boss, and so they wanted to like make sure it was Chris, because we don't want to mess up and I'm like if you were to fuck.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah I, I'm in danger If you're going to do a mock meeting for the big ball, so no one fucks up and says the wrong thing. Y'all in danger.
Speaker 1:And that's what I was thinking. I'm like there ain't no way in real that you're going to do a mock. So I'm just kind of chilling. I do my section and they're like you know, we, we, you know we need some. You know, some of you guys look so disengaged, like you're not, uh, like you're not engaged to what's going on or anything. Don't want to be here, motherfucker, like. And so, you know, my boss comes in. He's like yeah, you know, I don't know how you're going to do it, but I'm going to need you to show, you know, the effort that you care. And I was like I don't understand what you mean. It's like because your body language says that you know, you, you just don't give a shit. And in my head I'm thinking to myself it's because I just don't give a shit.
Speaker 2:But shadow DJ Yola.
Speaker 1:And I was like in my head. I'm like, just because I'm leaning back in my chair, my desk, doesn't mean that I'm not listening to what's being said and taking notes of everything. It just means that that's how I feel comfortable to be able to absorb all the information, right and so. And so they were like we like so. One one of the guys, the Jamaican, was like yo, like he's like, come on, man, like I get it, like you don't give a shit. I said, no, I do care. It's just the fact that I know they don't give a shit. So if you don't give a shit about what I do, until it's time for something to happen and it requires me to be, you know, doing whatever, like I know y'all give a shit. But at the same distance, just because, just because I'm lean, I'm laying back in my chair, doesn't mean I'm not paying attention, I'm not engaged or not in tune to what's going on.
Speaker 2:You know you're. You wanted you to sit like a polite young man. That's all that is.
Speaker 1:Like I told everybody else, it's very subjective.
Speaker 2:All of that is subjective. Well, man, you and you're in no first of all in the place of you know, yes, okay, they, but you're in the place of business and that that that that body language does make it seem like you know.
Speaker 1:Okay, if you ain't in nature you can't argue, no, no you can't argue that, and I will always argue it for the simple fact of if. If you're telling me that it seems like that means you're not sure yourself. That means you're doing.
Speaker 2:You're doing this shit that I just said I don't like as far as middle gymnastics, when you tell a motherfucker one thing or you're trying to discuss something and they just pick apart one word or one thing that made them feel a certain type of way and now you're talking about that rather than basically all the motherfucker was saying is can you please not lean in your chair when the big boss come, because we in trouble, we need, we need to make sure that this shake runs smoothly. That's all he was asking.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I know, that's what you're asking In a roundabout way and you were like well, how do you know if I'm not engaged? And like ain't nobody actually, that is.
Speaker 3:That is exactly the question.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh. So you wanted a little motherfuckers that. I'll be like yo. I was like that's what I'm fucking in the face, because he not fucking paying attention to what I'm saying and he's not getting it.
Speaker 1:Oh, no, I get it.
Speaker 2:I get it. Oh, you just don't give a fuck, I just don't get it. So he was right, so you so so so you being a menace, you being a menace. You knew he was right but you tried to make him feel you tried to gaslight him was like this motherfucker was wrong. You don't know if I'm not paying attention. I'm thoroughly enthused to being this fucking Mark meeting. You gave off that even though you knew that it was bullshit. Hey look.
Speaker 1:I told them. I said if I was really unengaged or disengaged from this whole thing, it would be obvious. It wouldn't be that you have to guess. You know what.
Speaker 2:If you want your job, it gets you want your job. If you was doing that shit for free, you would have been unengaged right then and there.
Speaker 1:I was just like I understood everything, I was taking notes most of it, and it was like, oh, we couldn't tell. I said no, I was taking notes because at the end of the day, yeah, I gave me all these things, so I'm writing it down. And I told him. I said we're in a mock, it's not like he's here, so when it's not my section, yes, of course, I'm like all right, cool, all right. So how am I going to?
Speaker 2:Let me go back to the fact that I have a mock meeting, like hey look, what does that?
Speaker 1:even I've never heard of it. I've never heard of it either. And like I told him, I said I don't know why they so scared of the big boys. Like, at the end of the day, like he said, he's an appointed official. If it's really that bad, he can be fired. They can just say, look, we're a little bit more protected, that we have to show that we are incapable of doing our job. Yeah, that's true. So at the end of the day, like I tell them all the time, I say I understand their thing, like, oh, you look so uninterested in what we're doing and blah, blah, blah. But I'm like you're judging based on what you feel or what you see, that you think someone's feeling, but at the end of the day, that's not what I'm feeling. I'm sitting there listening to you guys talk for an hour about shit that does not concern me Body, language, mind, body language, you know how that shit goes.
Speaker 1:But he's like well, you know you don't want to get a write up for not looking interested in the media. I said they're going to write up for not looking interested.
Speaker 2:You need to leave, man.
Speaker 1:You need to leave. You shouldn't tell me no shit like that, because I would look so this interested with you.
Speaker 2:They really will write me, you better be, I'll be, I'll be, I'll be doing, I'll be doing so much interested shit like body language and shit like that. It's going to be like this motherfucker's faking Now he's mocking us. I'll be like this, pondering, and shit, I'll be doing all that you know what I did in the meeting I did exactly that meeting.
Speaker 1:I did this and I was like, look, shaking my head and shit, that don't need to be my thing, precisely my, it's so.
Speaker 2:So, sir, it's so, it's so sir, it's so, sir, it's so sir it's so much go.
Speaker 1:Workers was like were you mocking them in there?
Speaker 3:I said what do you mean? Oh man, I'm like you're going to go to a mock meeting.
Speaker 1:Of course I'm mocking them.
Speaker 2:So you looking for a job? I see you said that last week, I believe it now Money.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm looking for. Man, mow money. A fucking mock meeting. Mock meeting to get ready for the regular meeting. Imagine this Told everybody like, sit with your supervisor and go over what you're going to say so they can give you pointers and or tell you what to take out of your thing, versus all get on the meeting for an hour and do a mock meeting and then get on the meeting for another hour.
Speaker 2:So it was like you know, I would have had that, I would have had that slap some eye at the end of the day, because there's no fucking way. The only thing I've done to prepare for meetings is something, since I'm in tech, something that I actually had to, I worked on or I had to inform someone about, and this, this and that. And I never practice practicing this on me, like when it's time to say, hey, what's okay, you were supposed to be blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. What is your findings? Like a five practice that I practiced that, but a fucking mock meeting.
Speaker 1:Right, no, I was just like I see, this is some hilarious shit. I'm like I don't in my head. I'm like I just don't get it. Like what do we? What do we mock meeting for?
Speaker 2:Like if, if, if you think we're that, shame on shame on, shame on middle management, because he could have, just like you was about to say I'm sorry, I just cut you off. Like, if y'all not prepared, that's all you, we not prepared, that's all you had to say, right, what do we need to do to be prepared? Like don't, don't, don't, uh, what is the word? Don't make it, don't condit, don't be condescending with it, like I got to make sure y'all say the right things. Let's just just say yo, we not what we should, we're not where we're supposed to be. Let's just go over some things with this meeting. Is that how?
Speaker 1:you said it. No, it was really. Let's all say what we're going to say at the meeting yes, that makes me feel shitty.
Speaker 2:That makes me feel shitty as an employee, rather than you just coming to me and being honest like yo. We ain't ready for this meeting. This is a lot on me as management, Not what we're going to say, but let's just be prepared for it so we can put our best foot forward and look and look good, Like. I mean, I mean.
Speaker 1:I will say but at the meeting we did do a good job, but guess what? The nigga ain't show up. You get the fuck out of it. The go to have the regular meeting, he not show up. And then still say the same shit over again in this week. I was like this is so fucking dumb, like yeah, I have literally wasted two hours of my of my work. I've been doing shit. I'm trying to stay awake in this, in this online meeting, my eyes close, I'm trying to look interested. I'm like, yeah, I gotta be fucking kidding me.
Speaker 2:It's a. It's a.
Speaker 1:Mental gymnastics. Ain't that some shit?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's a better way that that. So you leaving. I only know what to say about that. So you trying to leave?
Speaker 1:Mrs Smith, did you go through mental gymnastics? Yeah, I'm that, you already see.
Speaker 3:I got me a new client.
Speaker 1:She got her new job. See man, fuck these mental, these mental. That's not got time for. Just be cutting trial with me.
Speaker 2:Nick is like All right, listen, the, the, the very, the very idea that I am in tech. I go through mental genetics every day Thanks to me. Like I have to deal with numerous. I have to deal with a lot of people's personalities, I have to deal with their skill level. I have to deal with their laziness, because sometimes people just don't want to do nothing and it's just kind of like hmm, how can I get him to do this for me? And in my head I'm like hmm, I've been trained to not let you just try to give me to do something for you, so I'm going to fucking make you work. So, literally sometimes with me it's just a battle of like who about the outsmart the other person so they can actually do their fucking job? That is that. Shit is the worst. Sometimes I'll be like God damn it, Somebody got me, or God damn it, what, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Like, nah, it's not happening.
Speaker 1:I mean that's. I mean that's kind of where I am Cause. I mean I know for what I do. Like I understand why they're uptight about everything else. Everybody else doesn't it, because there's deals with things that are happening right now and being prepared for it. My job does. I'm logistics. There's no way to have. My job only matters when there's an actual disaster. That's the only time my job really matters, because if I'm not prepared, if I don't stay prepared, we won't be prepared. You know what I'm saying. So it was like all right. So that's why I'm like y'all want me to do what? Like half the time I don't even do my own damn job. Like I get called to do other shit, like hey, can you do this, can you do this? Hey, help this person. I'm like it's not logistics. This doesn't even fall under tasks as assigned, because it's not logistical. It's not logistical.
Speaker 3:You know what?
Speaker 1:I'm saying as a sign All right, cool, at least make it logistical. Hey look, we need you to go, we need you to go around and collect trash and put in the dumps. Nigga, we got a whole janitorial staff for that. It's not logistic. Yeah, so yeah, oh, but yeah, man it was.
Speaker 3:it's been a week, it's been a week.
Speaker 2:It ain't been work, shit. It's just like it's people. People are running to people at the store, Even though I don't like fucking going to the store, Just like, all right. So now I got to. I got to comprehend what you mean by you not whatever.
Speaker 2:It's just it's crazy. I don't know how to talk to people. I get it, not that I'm disrespecting them, I just the capacity to talk to people has changed over the last three years. Everybody's on like when they rush, this, rush, that let me get out, you know this, this and that they not thinking straight. Their attention span is crazy, horrible and it's just like all right. So now I got to. Not only do I got to like all right, you definitely talk to women differently than you talk to men. Now I got to figure out if you got a good attention span or not. Like, are you? Even people could be looking at you and still not paying attention to you. They could be nodding their head. And what did I just say?
Speaker 1:That's exactly what I said in my last meeting. Yeah, what the fuck niggas was talking about. But nod in my head yes, I do that, yeah.
Speaker 2:So I'm saying, oh man, I am. Yeah, that shit made me think of. That shit made me think about like how you just even talk about like your own girls and dating and shit like that. Like I want to. You know, people are wild nowadays.
Speaker 1:That lady got spackling face with a brick. Oh yeah, I was. And then, like the dude show, I saw the thing in the dude show all the time. She slapped up a dude saying that I'm slapping. She slapped the old white guy because he could be white. You didn't see the clips.
Speaker 2:No, I don't pay attention. I mean, I'm guilty of just looking at headlines and shit like that too.
Speaker 1:So so some guy put them. I thought I said it to you, but the guy put up the video.
Speaker 2:You did, but I some of. I said in the comments that those two things happen in two different times.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's two different times. I think what the guy was trying to say was, after she got hit in the face with a brick, she, she was like you know, the guy picked up the brick, all these dudes around me, and none of them stepped up to protect me. After she, just after she had just pretty much said we don't need no dudes to protect me. I, you know myself, I protect you. Women should be dating women she slapped about two other niggas and then gets hit in the face with a brick and I'm mind you, all these things are isolated things. And then I think what he was playing off of was when she said I've never done nothing to anybody for it to be hitting the face with a brick, and it was just like well, there's about six cups right here.
Speaker 2:That says that you did I mean, nobody deserves to get hit.
Speaker 1:Nobody deserves to get hit with a brick. But the point he it wasn't even that he proved the point, he just was like you know, I guess at a long story. So he's like he's like. Women go around, you know, these women are going around saying they don't need the protection of men, but then, when they don't have the protection of men, complain that a man doesn't protect them. You can't have it both ways and that's pretty much what is what the bottom line was on his side of it. Like you, it's like you. You just went through these, all these clips saying you don't need no protection for no man. You don't need no man. Then you get mad that the man didn't protect you. Like.
Speaker 2:Aside from her getting smacked in the face with a brick, which is very unfortunate, and it's a shitty thing for a person to do, that's just that he know he can hurt her for real.
Speaker 1:He didn't need a brick to hit her. He could have used his fists.
Speaker 2:When I seen the side of her face, I was like Jesus.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah that shit. It looked like she had like a face growing out her face, like it was that bad.
Speaker 2:No, it looked like a square burn out of her face. That shit was crazy.
Speaker 1:I was just like I didn't know she had really got hit with a brick, Like when I saw the clip I'm thinking like she had just like gotten a car, she got in a fight with somebody and they just meet the shit out of her. When she started explaining that she got hit with a brick and then started complaining that no man stepped up for why this man hit her with a brick and she was in a place full of men and all of them. After she got hit with a brick, no one came over and did anything. They just all went about their day. I was like, oh okay, Well, that's fucked up. Like no one stopped it. I mean and I get it, you would expect the man to step up with it.
Speaker 2:But I sigh from that, Sigh from that. Yeah it's. We live in the world of the double standard. It's only beneficial when it's beneficial.
Speaker 1:And that's on both sides too.
Speaker 2:What double standard that men complain about and then cry about.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I didn't get that far yet. I just know. I just want me a baloney sandwich.
Speaker 3:Double standard. I don't get it.
Speaker 2:Equal opportunity.
Speaker 1:Equal opportunity. We complain about that.
Speaker 3:Yes, I do.
Speaker 2:I could. I mean, I mean men. In what way? Because I've never heard this men complain about equal opportunity.
Speaker 3:I guess, like in terms of I don't know let me think about it.
Speaker 2:Let me think about it.
Speaker 1:I was going to say how to fact? You got so many damn interviews and I can't even get one.
Speaker 3:Okay, so she was talking about you on the side.
Speaker 1:She was talking about me. It hit me that she was talking about me. I was talking about you To get mad interviews, and I think I said it to her one time.
Speaker 2:I said yo fix your fucking resume. Then.
Speaker 1:It's hot, listen clean, and it looked good and I told her. I said I feel like sometimes they'd be like man. We got too many men here and unless there's a job where you got to live some shit or you actually have to physically do so, I honestly think they started just taking women off the bat.
Speaker 2:Nah, she was just.
Speaker 1:I don't know, man, I can't say, I can't say I mean, I'll just say that I can only speak for myself. That's what I told her. I was like man, you know, these damn interviews, I can't eat. I barely got the interview.
Speaker 2:Yo, that's another episode in a nutshell right there. Yeah, Fucking double fucking standards. I don't know, man, I can't your wife. He said what she said. She said opportunities and shit. I'm literally trying to think of one. I'm like, nah, I can't. But I do know that there are some men complaining about that shit, but that ain't the masses, it's like a small, small minority. So I give it to her saying that women get all the jobs because of affirmative, not affirmative action, because of equal opportunity and shit like that, I would say.
Speaker 1:I would say that it would be a possibility, yeah, but it's just like yeah, we get jobs where it's like in the office If they just need, if they need a face, like let's say it's a, let's say like she's a case worker. She does like disaster case work and you got to go meet people and, you know, build relationships. I feel like they're always more inclined to hire a woman before they hire a man, Based on just because you got a people face and meet people. And sometimes it does feel a little bit more welcoming when you see a woman like, oh hey, how are you doing? They like a little bit more like, oh, great to meet you, or that whatever.
Speaker 2:I'm not going to say that that doesn't play a part, because I think like that too. However, both a man and woman can do that job very, very effective Right. Depends on how charismatic you are. Yeah, I will. You know your shit, this isn't that. And both parties can be that. I think I'm not going to lie, or probably hire a woman too. I don't know why, but I do know why. Because you know that nurturing side and stuff like that, and you would hope that a woman would have that nurturing side down pack before a man, and you know, sometimes men got that. I don't have that, so I couldn't do that. I couldn't do that job.
Speaker 1:I will say for this, for my job, what I do, there's no way they would have hired a woman to do my job. Like they might have interviewed a woman, but they weren't hiring nobody to do what I do. What amount of physical labor you have to do, so they were hiring a guy. So that's why I say I think sometimes we're certain jobs. Yeah, I've been to places, I've gone through my building and I go to like quality control or I go to like some of the other sections, and you'll see they might have two guys there, but it'd be a team full of women and it's just like. So were the women only qualified to do this job, or was it that you felt that it was easier for you to get across to another person that would be a woman versus a man?
Speaker 2:So I tell you like, yeah, and I can see, I feel like this is not in my position. But the organization that I'm at right now, like when I first got to the organization, my supervisor was a woman.
Speaker 2:One of my counterparts was a woman and they taught me a bunch of shit about what I know now, right, so I don't really believe in that. Oh, this is a quote, unquote. As long as the motherfucker is skilled, I don't give a fuck. Like, like I said, I got. I have women in my, in my work, in my team, in my team definitely no organization, but all my team or whatever I have. You know, I learn shit for them every day, right, so I get it Shout out to the women in the sciences and the engineering and shit like that. Right, I'm a female woman, an engineer, and science and IT.
Speaker 1:They got. No, they math.
Speaker 2:No, they don't. What engineering? Yes, yes, they do.
Speaker 1:That is a beautiful topic. Don't let my wife tell you any different. Math is amazing.
Speaker 3:Fuck.
Speaker 1:Math is amazing. Math does not suck. Look, math is amazing.
Speaker 2:Math is suck, a bag of dicks.
Speaker 1:That's probably so. You didn't got her started Hard to.
Speaker 2:They smashing it, coming everywhere. So, no, I hate math too, but math is a wonderful thing. Yeah, I wish I paid, I was dedicated more time and actually learning aspects of math, because I probably be super rich right now With just when this pin come from. Oh, it's stuck to the damn thing. Yeah, I'd be super rich right now because I definitely would have gone into engineering, definitely wanted to go into engineering, but I was lazy and in middle school the hormones kicked in and I started chasing girls. I got to high school and I started chasing money and girls.
Speaker 2:Sounds all right and all that shit. I lost focus. I lost focus but I'm still doing good and I'm just thinking. If I ain't loose focus, I would have been in one of those big houses and woodcrests and the boondocks and the boondocks yeah, next to the rapper. Probably. Hopefully not next to the rapper, yo, if you could live next to a rapper, I live next to J Cole. J Cole or Kendrick, they both got regular size houses. Seems like not too much be going on over there. You know, maybe me and J Cole play one on one. You know, pick up game and shit like that. Me and Kendrick will work out. I don't know. I don't know where that statement came from. Yeah, do not know where that statement came from.
Speaker 2:Yes, mental gymnastics went through it all this fucking week. I am now reevaluating how I interact with people and I ain't gonna lie, most of it is going to be me saying less and just letting people like talk and me listening and me giving them 304 words, just so they can't fuck that up Like I'm talking in three to four word intervals, unless I really, really got to explain something because people's patients ain't there. People mind it there right now. I'm not gonna be wasting my bandwidth, trying to figure out what the fuck you think. Trying you trying to figure out if I'm trying to trick you so you give me false information, or you you know you're not saying fully what you need to say, or your insecurities are getting the best of you in a basic ass conversation. I ain't got time to do that.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Especially not at work, especially not at the grocery store, especially not at best fucking back. Nomadass, here is fucked. That's another story, sounds like it. You want that? Nope, thank you for tuning in. I am getting quite hungry, quite thirsty. Yeah, I'm about to eat my fur.
Speaker 1:Whatever, that is my birthday fur.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2:But yeah, we thank you for tuning in and see you next time.
