Um, so my thing today was so you know, I don wait a minute. Who's breathing into the microphone? I think it's me. Poor thing has a cold. Leave her alone. It wasn't me. It wasn't me that one wasn't it wasn't me. My nose is stuffy, everybody. I'm really sorry. She's committed guys to the podcast, extra committed. I'll just move like this when I have to breathe I still hear you shut the fuck up, rob.

Speaker 1:

Go ahead. Anna, okay. So matilda, yeah, right. So I don't know if you guys have seen those memes where it's like you want to look cute like one of those like cheerleaders, and then you look like miss trunchable. So I put my hair in a bun and I was like, oh my gosh. So courtney got me these like really cute, like Halloween scrunchies, and I'm like, oh my God, I'm going to wear the one with like the spider webs on it. I'm like, oh my God, I look fucking mistrunchable.

Speaker 1:

It's terrible, you're going to the chokie, the chocolate cake. That scene always made me so sad. I know Like I would cry during that scene because of how he was just this little chunky kid and she made him eat all that chocolate cake. You like cake? So sad bitch, sad little chunky. But honestly, like, as I've gotten older, like miss trenchable makes more sense, my movie is definitely closer to her. Yeah, like what is it? Miss butterfly? Like whatever the fuck her name is, butter. I wanted to say worse, but it's not that either. Butter, pecan, I don't know. But I was like, fuck you and your sunshine, sunshine is that the funny thing you wanted to say sunshine and butterflies.
