Hi everyone. Welcome to Cousins, honestly, openly discussing everything spicy. Welcome to the channel. I got confused. I was going to say the wrong word.
Speaker 2:Oh my. God we're going to get it eventually. This is only our sixth episode. I listened to a podcast that they have over 500 episodes and they still fuck up their intro dude.
Speaker 1:So I think they intro just like hey, what's up? Like oh yeah, fuck, I called you by the wrong name.
Speaker 2:Well, I think once we get to jingle again, like I've been saying for the last three episodes, we'll be fine. But for now, how are you feeling?
Speaker 1:I'm feeling better. My voice is coming back after one week of not having it. I felt helpless and I felt like the gingerbread man from Shrek the muffin.
Speaker 2:Like that's the only thing I can remember. I don't think I seem shrek enough to sort of make the whole thing that I know what you're talking about. Oh yeah, you sound horrible, dude. You and my mom both sounded like you were dying all last week.
Speaker 1:It felt like it looked like, but it wasn't the Rona, it wasn't her.
Speaker 2:It wasn't. Oh, it wasn't. It was like the who, it wasn't her. How was your week? What did you do besides not talk to me, girl? I am so sorry. I've been like swamped with work Like last week. I don't know what it was about my, my managers and my supervisors and my coworkers just wanting to have meetings. We had a lot of calls and you know those means to say this could have been an email. They tried to get an email and people didn't read the whole email through. So it was. It was just a mess. Today I had calls since like 8 30 in the morning and you called me and I didn't get off the phone till like a little while ago. So there's just been a lot of crazy stuff that worked.
Speaker 2:Like, yesterday was Sunday, girl, I worked all day. Yeah, I figured you did. I worked all day. I started working at 10 and I finished working at 10, with like two hours in between. Maybe that I was by eight with my mom and stuff. Other than that, I just went out to dinner with my friend on Friday after my doctor's appointment. I saw that you went out and had fun. I would have been.
Speaker 1:You were supposed to be part of that. We had an empty seat girl.
Speaker 2:We had an empty seat and we were just like all right, p Mariah, that's great.
Speaker 1:I love that we missed you. Yeah, we saved you a seat.
Speaker 2:Thank you. My spirit was with you guys. I love that. I love that people thought the picture you posted on the Instagram was me and I was over here friggin in my bed, all touched in cold.
Speaker 1:I know I was like, yeah, I'm right now. I didn't think I will. You know what low key something told me that that was going to happen, but I didn't think it was going to happen. It's because I was like yeah, it's the boobs, because you guys are big breasted women. But our infield reporter is an entity of her own. She is a real person and she is out there roaming the streets, roaming the apps and all that, but she was there posting up thirst traps for her apps.
Speaker 1:So, as you would to Mariah, as you would, but I was like you know and I told her can I borrow one of those pictures so we can put it? You know, so we can. We can show that you're actually out there on the field. And she said yeah, and she sent it to me and I just cropped up her face and all of a sudden it looked you guys look like twins.
Speaker 2:Dude, for real. And the thing is that the thirsty ass man. We never responded. We know, we know who they are, we know their stories and we know, we know them we expected nothing less from them, but it was just fast how it happened.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Because I saw that I was cause. We don't get messages on the, on the ID and I was like who's messaging us? And then I went to see the request and I'm like, oh, jesus Christ, I started screen-killing them, sending them to you, and I figured you were like you were out, you weren't going to pay attention to it.
Speaker 1:I was not looking at it. But you know what I did get notifications, like of the views, you know like. Oh, you know, but I did see that I got like from those people, like certain people, and I was like but where I don't see it. But you know how I'm not good with technology so I probably couldn't see it and it was probably in the request. I mean, that's how my man split in. He was on the request file. I didn't find that file till like two years later.
Speaker 2:So oh, let's start for another day. And that's the story for another day, I see everything in this podcast. Well, you said your infill reporters out here on the apps and we asked people what apps they were on, remember? Yes, do you want to tell us what? Tinder was number one.
Speaker 1:Tinder was number one and then a lot of people just came second. It was like that they're not on the apps.
Speaker 2:Ornerly, I think. Third was in a relationship.
Speaker 1:Ornerly relationship.
Speaker 2:Yeah, fourth was Hinge, and then the last one, I think you. And then the last one was Okcupid.
Speaker 1:And of course there's other apps that we didn't put, but I mean just to get there.
Speaker 2:We're going to talk about some apps. Later I'll tell you some stuff about them, but let me see, let me give you some responses that we got. I asked on my personal, on my personal, what do you call it? My personal ID.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm like you're on your personal ID.
Speaker 2:I forget how to talk, dude. I asked what same thing, right? What do you think about dating apps? And somebody said they suck, there's no real connection, don't know how they come off, don't know their voice, etc. What would you say to that?
Speaker 1:I mean they do suck, but depending on the extent, what are you there for? If you're there for hookups, I think they work. If you're not there for hooking up, well because it doesn't work?
Speaker 2:Well, because dating apps are dating apps, right, yeah, we've turned them society us into hookup apps, but really they're supposed to be dating apps to find people to date and ultimately get into a relationship with. So I think that's what this person meant that there's no real substance.
Speaker 1:I agree to that correspondent because they do suck them, because they are now in that category of hookup apps instead of relationship apps or dating apps as you would call them, which goes into the next answer we got.
Speaker 2:Somebody else said I think they're not what they used to be. It's more about sex now than before, which is true.
Speaker 1:True, at least it's been turned that way. It's been very yeah. Do you feel like you?
Speaker 1:should get it feel like from the time that I don't I use them still, but I don't use them less like and that I would have just yeah, like it's not like my, oh, my god, like I'm gonna be swiping all day, every day, but like remember how, when they started and we started using them like I think it was like we had to call like check up our face, because we have to check up our ID, and we had to check our dating app. Yeah, yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 2:I think like, yeah, they really are not what they used to be, because before at least people would ask you out on dates before, like, in trying to show you their date and show, speak for yourself.
Speaker 1:I don't know of any dates. I mean like drinks and stuff, like I don't know about dates.
Speaker 2:Well, that's a date technically, technically, like with low standards, drinks are dates with high standards, supposedly dinner, but I wouldn't want to go have dinner. Thanks for putting me in the lowest. No, because I've had those too.
Speaker 1:But like I would just go to Parallel Mandale. You know just for what I was there for. Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2:It's like because I saw a TikTok last night of a man. Oh girl, this guy got me so fucking pissed because he's like with a girl and she's telling him like, oh, I think in like, this place is like a little corriente. How do you say corriente? Like a?
Speaker 1:like a whatever. Yeah, yeah like common folk place.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. And then he's like you think that the place is like a little bit, but if everything is fucking shit, you know, you know, yeah. And then she's like see, like I like you know, higher in the fancy, high end stuff, yeah, and like I didn't think whatever she was saying was so bad, like she was just saying like you know, I like good stuff, I like men who can provide for me. Like no es que quiera ser mantenida, like it's not like I want to be maintained by a man, but like I want a provider versus just like a guy, like that's conforming.
Speaker 1:You know, like that I don't know how to explain it Like don't you like yeah, it's okay that you're gonna take me to McDonald's, but I'd rather be taken to like fucking Fogo de Shower or Temple or something nicer than.
Speaker 2:McDonald's. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So this guy, this guy's like vete la verga que callate losico. Like shut the fuck up and shut your fucking mouth up. You know, like in Spanish, like cussing her out, and I'm like why you're talking to her like that? She's literally just telling you her standards and like if you can't pay, or like if you're not on that level, fucking let her go in, that's it. You know, like you don't have to be basher on the internet like that. But true, yeah, I got, I got off topic, but they, they met on a date. That's what I'm trying to say, that's what I'm trying to get at the which was this.
Speaker 1:If you know, do you know Tinder? I'll tell you. I'm gonna say there's no. You know, she was expecting something high and somewhere very low Of a peasant.
Speaker 2:I don't want to finish that sentence because she's on it too. Oh my god. Okay, let's carry on. So on the and the podcast page, I asked what do you think about dating apps again? So some guys said mostly crazy on them. I can't judge LLL, probably because he's crazy too. Somebody else said I love them, somebody else said ew. And then I asked I responded to the mostly crazy comment and I said well, what's crazy about was the craziest thing you've encountered. And then they're like. I know a friend who slept with their family member because they wanted to try the opposite. So I was like ew, wait, what I was like is she is you awake?
Speaker 1:Is she listening? I am no, yeah, I am. I'm very much awake. I'm now. I'm very much awake.
Speaker 2:Okay. So I asked was the craziest you've encountered on dating app? And he responded I know a friend who slept with their family member because they wanted to try the opposite. And then he said DM me if you want to know the full story. So, girl, you know I needed to know the full story so I went listen.
Speaker 2:So I went I know me too, because girl context is fucking lacking here. But then I I messaged him and I was like tell us your story, the one about family members that you responded to. And so the the story goes is very short, but the story goes. I have a cousin who's a lesbian and she has a family member who does porn he's not related to me anyhow. She convinces him to do the deed with her because she wanted to try to dig for the first time. She ended sharing this with all of us during Thanksgiving dinner.
Speaker 1:That's the short story you see my face right now wait, oh okay, so many questions, what so?
Speaker 2:her cousin does porn okay, so I think, I think, I think, I think the way the story goes is like he has a female cousin and she has a male cousin, right? So the female cousin is a lesbian, but she really wanted to try some dick and she had no other ideas but to ask her cousin to fuck her, so she could try to dig for the first time, yeah, like what uh yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I'm guessing the reason he responded is about the mostly crazy people on the apps is because she's on the apps.
Speaker 1:I don't know, girl, but I know how I was gonna say wait, how did we get here? Oh, wow, okay right.
Speaker 2:The more you know, right you got the reaction you want.
Speaker 1:This is why I didn't tell you before, I didn't say you have to hear another like what I know yeah and it was.
Speaker 2:It was a little hard to read because, I'm telling you, the context is kind of lacking there, but I have to read between the lines, girl you're like I had to piece this puzzle by myself. Yeah because homeboy said the the dead, not the deed the dead. But you know how I am ain't all about freaking grammar the grammar police over there.
Speaker 1:He's like.
Speaker 2:I can't read, I grow. I literally matched with a guy the other day I think it's like a screenshot of it because he said you're, as in, like possessive, you're the most beautiful girl, or whatever, and so I matched with him, just to respond you are the most of your piss.
Speaker 1:I can't with you. You know what. You have to correct these people because then those are our future out there and they're probably gonna go spread their seeds.
Speaker 2:So yeah, oh, oh, my god. Yeah, it's just. I mean, we need to fucking learn. Somebody needs to correct these mother fuckers.
Speaker 1:I'm still unlike what. I know that's crazy, no, but yeah, no, but you know, like we're no saints, we're no saints, we're crazy to them. We have been on the app so I get this guy, but I mean wrong context, but crazy thing, craziest thing you've done on the app is what you were asked.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, but you see, the problem with this is that we don't get many responses and the ones that we do, we kind of have to take with a grain of salt because it's they never respond. That's why I stopped doing the anonymous to in my profile because, girl, the responses I get, to that I asked what the craziest thing on the apps was, or what do you think about dating apps?
Speaker 2:right the responses was talk about three sims. I want to kiss you again. I was dropped as a baby. I'm a guy but I use the girls bathroom. I made out with my teacher. How do any of those relate to what I asked?
Speaker 1:They don't, but they want to hear about three sims. I got that one because, well, when I used to be on the apps we're talking about, five years.
Speaker 2:Let's go into your experiences on the apps.
Speaker 1:Well, like I said, five years ago, maybe more, I was on the app, you know, and I was bored yeah, I'm laughing because I was. I literally was bored. I was bored and curious, okay, let's go with those. And I decided, well, I was on Tinder. That's the only app I've ever been Okay and I changed the interest to both male and female. I changed it to both male and female because, you know, I was like I just wonder if I attract the other, the opposite sex too. So I like dick very much, really do.
Speaker 1:Let's put it out there. We all know that, yeah. So then, like, what was interesting is that then you would get the couple and then you know that invites that they were, they're looking for a three, you know a third, and I met with this couple and both very attractive people, very attractive people, and I, yeah, it worked out, it was, it was going good for a good three months.
Speaker 2:Wait, go into details.
Speaker 1:Okay, well, they live in a nice place. So he's older. He was like at that time in his late 30s, so probably now Girl by Probably even older. Well for you at that point, at that time, at that time, I was in my early 20s. Okay, mariah chill, mariah chill.
Speaker 2:Like where do you have 30s girls?
Speaker 1:And she was in her 30s. Again, I was in her early 30s, so she was like my age probably, I think. And yeah, I was over here like I'm bored and curious, let me find out. But yeah, it was fun. I just I just felt like with that I don't know, it was becoming a lot, in the sense like you feel that someone's going to get hurt or someone needs more attention than the other. And in this case the guy was very needy and I feel like she was trying to please him and then I would go in there and I felt like he kind of wanted, like his, a little alone time with me and I was like, ooh, not down, because I like your girl and your girl is really cool and I like to fuck her too, but so I don't want to just fuck you without her consent. No, you're not.
Speaker 2:That makes sense, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Oh yeah, she's really hot. Can I ever?
Speaker 1:show you a picture of her. I think you did. I feel like I remember her. I think I think I did. She was very pretty, but yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:I think, she was.
Speaker 1:That's the craziest thing I've done on the app.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean then that's pretty up there.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't, I wouldn't say the craziest thing though but Okay, what do you think is the craziest thing? Let's go. I mean, besides all the other fools that I was like quick.
Speaker 2:Well, actually, no, yeah, that's like the most daring because, like on the app, yeah casual hookups like in Vegas and stuff like that doesn't count.
Speaker 1:Well, anyway, really, that was just, you know, besides of Las Vegas.
Speaker 2:So God to Las Vegas. I think that never bring coconuts to the beach. No, it's, don't bring sand to the beach. Well, in Spanish it's no lleves coco a la playa. Okay, so like little translation doesn't work. I said less than oh, my god, what do you think is the craziest thing I've done on the app, girl? I think the last thing that I did that was really crazy was the one guy for the Halloween party.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, and that was recent, so that one's better. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:She's pretty. But, um, I saw last year, for my friend had a Halloween party and well, I matched with this guy. We talked for like a couple days about Harry Potter and stuff, you know me and my little shit, and then that the other party Shut up. So the other party, he messaged me. He's like hey, what are you doing? And now I'm gonna say I'm at a party.
Speaker 2:I sent him a video of me dancing and I was like vente, like just come over. And then he's like, oh my god, where are you at? Like I wanna dance. And so I sent him the invitation and like two hours later he showed up, girl, he showed up at 205 and by 250 we were in the restroom Actually 105, and then 150. We were in the restroom and it was like in and out, in and out and my friend's boyfriend went to knock on the door because there was a line for people to go to the restroom. So we got out and I was like, oh my god, I went to war. And and then I don't know what happened, he went outside and then he told me to go outside. So I went outside and then he went to get his friend's car. We went to park, like across the street or around the corner, I don't know. And oh my god girl let's just say that I still dream about that man Sometimes.
Speaker 2:That dick Correction, actually all of him because he was so attractive to me, because he was bearded and he already know how I like. I like them to look like fucking bad boys, so he was full of.
Speaker 1:Yeah like translation.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so yeah, that was. That was the craziest thing of them as of late. So people.
Speaker 1:Change your settings and get them to come ASAP to wherever you're at.
Speaker 2:Sometimes those are the best plans, though, because we've tried to see each other ever since and he hasn't worked like at all. Imagine we're talking about October and that day it was just. It was just kind of like, yeah, come through and I can tell you that Someone we know ended up doing the same thing in the backyard with one of his friends. I'm over here. I didn't know this, oh girl, I Was so proud of her.
Speaker 1:But I did not. I did not. This is the first I hear about this and this you didn't know this? No, you didn't tell me that.
Speaker 2:Maybe one day she'll come on the purpose and tell us.
Speaker 1:But to summarize that part, what happened? It was just being on the apps for hookups. It wasn't like we're looking for a relationship or a date.
Speaker 2:These aren't dead. You know it's crazy. You know it's crazy that I did tell this guy when we were like getting to know each other stuff. I was like I'm so over the hookup culture. I was like I would just like to date somebody, like hell, my boyfriend. But I don't want to be fucking around. The first thing I do when I meet him fucking me. That was my bad. I couldn't resist. No, I was feeling myself I'm not weak, I do it a fuck I want. But yeah, girl, yeah, definitely don't plan it out and like, if that's what you want, right, like if you want to just go and like felt somebody, or like you just want to meet somebody, the best way to do it is to try to get out of the app as soon as possible, because if you just keep texting, texting, texting on the app like you're never gonna get out of this.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I both know that we have people On our roster that we've never even met.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, like oh, no, no, no, yeah, there was one guy, I think.
Speaker 1:Like we talked for like seven years, I can say that I was just gonna ask, I was gonna ask you and we just met on the app and it was yeah, it was on center and We've always planned on hooking up. We've always found during this XYZ, but never happened. It never happened and he moves out of state. I stayed here and of course, not gonna happen and it just never happened and he would still mess it like if he's gonna come through and it's like dude, you can't shut the fuck live in box. Yes, so I'm like why are these people? Yeah, so most of the people on the app's to, they're just talk, they don't come through. So when you find those come through ones, you keep them like our infield reporter.
Speaker 2:She has a five.
Speaker 1:She has a five. Yeah, she rotates them out because that those ones are the loyal ones. Those are the ones that are down. They tell her be here right now. She's there. She was ready on the fly on Friday to dip to dip if she had. They called her. She told us she gave us fair warning. She's on Chispa though. She loves Chispa.
Speaker 2:People yeah.
Speaker 1:Those who do know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, chispa is the app for Latinos, like all you're gonna see. There are Latinos here and there you see a white person, a Middle Eastern person, a black person that has like a Latino fetish. But other than that. It's just Salvis Mexicans, watermelon, some durian Puerto Rican, sometimes some Spaniards, but but any?
Speaker 1:Spanish speaking or people who are interested in them, like our infield reporter. She likes them boys and she's not one of our people. But yeah, she's out there on that one. She likes that one because she says that they come through, but again, that's all she's looking for. She's not looking to be tied down.
Speaker 2:I have never met anybody. Oh, actually no, I'm lying one of my friends. But he became my friend because he was supposed to be my collagen, you know, because he's younger and then I decided that he needed a friend instead of a fuck buddy, so I just turned him down. I said I will be your friend, not your fuck buddy.
Speaker 1:He's still disappointed about that every time he gets a chance.
Speaker 2:He's like oh man, like I would like to insert whatever perversions you can imagine here. Oh my god, well, that's good for her. She, she, she has. Look in that up, she has, look in that up. I can tell you, last year I I downloaded Chispa. Okay, cupid tinder hinge bumble. I absolutely hate bumble. I. I hate bumble. Yeah, I hate bumble. I can't deal with it. I fucking hate it Okay okay.
Speaker 2:Cupid. Okay, cupid is a right girl, but most of the messages I get from weirdos are there, tinder, as we know, just for hookups. I've only met the one guy from the Halloween party that I'm telling you from there, no one else. Like I don't think I've met with anybody that I've matched with in the past fucking six months. Everyone, and then she's, but again just my friend Anthony. But I don't like them, like hey, I feel like it makes me annoyed to have to respond to a bunch of messages or like, sometimes, the things they say girl, let me read you what a man said me yesterday, a 42 year old man, okay, okay. He said wow, you're gorgeous, I'm da, da, da. I would love to get together, take you to dinner, movie Beach, boardwalk, peer or top golf, golf. I would like, I would love you to be the woman I choose to pursue from this site, of course only with your consent.
Speaker 2:I'm single, no kids that are married. I'm an army vet and former officer investigator turned physical comic actor and voiceover actor, specializing in cartoon and video games. I'm a big goofball, fun and protector. That just comes naturally to me. I love kids and all animals. By the way, getting touch be blessed. Hug, literally how I wrote. How I read it is how he wrote it no commerce, no periods 42. Oh, and then he's like and I don't like any time sir.
Speaker 1:Sounds like your life is a drama dude. Your whole life is filled with drama, cartoon voiceover. But everything like your whole life is a drama.
Speaker 2:I was like Let me just screenshot this real quick and unmatch it, actually not even just X, because on an okay cupid, they can send you intro so you can choose if you want to match with them or not after reading whatever stupid they have to say.
Speaker 1:I know a lot of people that met on. Okay, cupid, and they're still together. Yeah, but before that's just them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, because, yeah, one of my friends is she met her boyfriend on okay too. But they live together, didn't together? For like seven, eight years, I don't know how long, and they're, you know, happy. But this is like when the app barely started. Now, yeah, now there's nothing. So what tabs did you try before?
Speaker 1:like way, way back in your day, when you weren't a taken woman, when you weren't a taken woman, I said Well, the only one I messed around with was Tinder, and I had this one I don't know if you've heard of it, it's called Coffee and Bagel Coffee.
Speaker 2:Meets Bagel.
Speaker 1:Oh, that that's what it's called. There you go, Mm-hmm. And I only got it because there was this thing. I don't even know where I saw it. I can't even tell you if I saw it on Facebook or if I saw it on Instagram or where the hell I saw it. But if you downloaded the app, you went, you entered in a drawing to win a date with this one guy, and this guy was so hot that I was like, yes, I'm going to try to win this date. And you had to like do so many entries a day. I don't know what the hell Shut the fuck up.
Speaker 1:Yes, yeah, like I don't know matches or whatever. And then yeah, but I was really working for that date.
Speaker 2:That sounds like those little novels you've ever seen, those little like dramas that happen on Facebook ads and then they say download the app to know what happened. Something like that, oh, that sounds like that.
Speaker 1:But hey, I wanted to find out if I got that date, but I never met anyone else. Did I ever meet anyone?
Speaker 2:I tried it for like a day and it was just not it. I think I've tried every app for like at least 24 hours and I'm just like no, I can't do it, you know what I lied.
Speaker 1:I met someone on there. I did meet someone on there, I did, and we went out. Yeah, we went on like two dates, I think Actual date. Yeah, it was. Here's the thing, though it was one of ours girl, he was one of mine. Oh, I remember this thing. Yeah, he was very nice, like we had like a lot of things in common, like conversation was great, but I just could not, like I was not attracted to him. So I couldn't even like yeah even as like a nice goodbye, kiss or whatever. I couldn't.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, you know, like some of these, yeah, yeah, I was just not.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was like he's totally friends. I'm like you're my friend.
Speaker 2:Does that why you feel better about the, the college in the little dude I feel like he's cute and all but like not for me, and he is one of our people, I mean yeah, I think I don't know. Yeah, me neither, I don't know. Well, I want to tell you about the top apps according to Forbes, help for this 2024. And as you've, said multiple times, the market is not great out there, and this is who's to blame these apps? The top one is Bumble. Which, how, how.
Speaker 1:I don't know how. I don't know how.
Speaker 2:How Tinder, of course, coffee Meets.
Speaker 1:Bagel.
Speaker 2:Hinch, what Facebook dating. Like huh, who's still using Facebook to date girl, I kind of want to open it just to see. But then I'm like, oh wait, what if I see people I know there?
Speaker 1:No there's no. I'm going to tell you you should do it, because it keeps throwing me that sign and I was like dude, how are you throwing me this?
Speaker 2:sign. What does it?
Speaker 1:know about you, right? I'm like it keeps telling me to like but to do the Facebook date.
Speaker 2:I'm like okay, fine, I'll do it for research purposes. There's another one called happen. Never heard of it. Plenty of fish, I think I'll use that one once.
Speaker 1:I have used plenty of fish POS. I know.
Speaker 2:I'm like I know, yeah, that one was also fun. I didn't like what I saw. There's another one.
Speaker 1:This is there for the. They were very explicit there and I like I was like I said, I get bored and I like watching pictures and stuff.
Speaker 2:Oh well, let me go. Let me go see if it's improved. No it got worse.
Speaker 1:The last time I checked it was worse. Yeah, I deleted the whole thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, there's another one called BLK BLK Sorry, I imagine that's for black people. I don't want to, I don't want to get canceled, but I imagine that's what that's for. And there's another one called feels. This no idea. Feels, I feel like, just feel. I am surprised that grinder is not here, unless this is just for, like, straight people, because I imagine that grinder has a lot of traction going on, but it's not, according to Forbes, not one of the best dating apps. So, but I'm not going to go back to bumble of all things, yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, I don't like bumble because, like, the girls have to make the first move and some people are very like. So you know that we still have our primitive roots where the guy wants to do the chasing and so if they have to wait on the girl, they're kind of like I don't want to wait they kind of move on and the girl also is kind of like thinking like 20 moves on what she could say to this person.
Speaker 2:So yeah, bumble, this sucks and then you're, you're messaging them and they're just like hi, and then how the fuck do you hear a conversation from there? I'm, I'm, yeah exactly.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So we don't. I don't know Bumble's not, unless you're one of those girls that you're like. You like to make them do the chasing and stuff. By all means that's your shit. But if you want a guy to come after you, bumble is not your shit.
Speaker 2:Definitely not.
Speaker 1:Well, but our infill reporter got banned from several, several apps, Hinge being one and Tinder.
Speaker 2:I'm sorry. What do you have to do to get banned from?
Speaker 1:That's what I said.
Speaker 2:That's what I asked her.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, come on, girl, I think you did it, for, uh, you made a oh, I, I made an account.
Speaker 2:I made it. Yeah, I made an account as a test because I was trying to sell feet picture.
Speaker 1:But don't they catch on that you're selling yourself. Guys, you can get banned, but I think so much worse, but carry on. I don't know. I'm lost with that. I don't. I think my infill reporter is just like, but she probably did something explicit or someone's hating on her, but I don't know how she can get banned.
Speaker 2:She used to abuse the app just now.
Speaker 1:Oh well, but she ended up finding someone else's number, using that number for the to get back on to that.
Speaker 2:Oh, she's not a kidder, so she's got her number.
Speaker 1:Yes, that's crazy, I know that's crazy, huh.
Speaker 2:I have a quote, unquote friend who works at Tinder. I'm going to ask him what, what? Oh really, Mm-hmm. You know who he is.
Speaker 1:The algorithm's here.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so we'll ask him no as for what advice? Yeah, I think advice. When you meet people online, like anytime you meet people from the online world, you know you have to be careful Again. Meet in public, don't do what I did send them the address to your friend's house in the middle of the night. Yeah, you'd never know.
Speaker 1:but yeah, just kind of like be mindful, yeah, for all the younger folk out there, because there's a lot of you guys out there roaming the streets right now. Just be very cautious of where you're dipping in your bodily fluids in, because you guys are all spreading shit around and not being careful, like, yeah, I'm not going to give you the spiel of use condoms, because we all fucking know that they're uncomfortable and no one likes them and they don't feel good.
Speaker 2:And well, I'm allergic to them personally. Personally, I'm allergic to them. But yeah, no, I've heard so many stories about people who have shit and they're just fucking around and they don't go to the doctor. They've gotten tested or they know that they have it because somebody else told them, and they still don't go get the medication for it. Like there's a reason why medication was created for all this Diseases, stis, stds, what are they called now? So just be responsible, go get checked. If you do happen to have something, don't feel like it's the end of the world, because it's not. Everybody has gotten it on these ones and just be responsible. Yeah.
Speaker 1:And, like Mariah said, meet somewhere public at least for the first time. Or at least, if you don't want to meet somewhere public, if you just want to get trash in, you guys just want to bump booties and all. Tell someone you trust. Tell someone you trust like, hey, I'm going on a hookup. If you get a pineapple emoji, can you send help?
Speaker 2:Because you never know People are crazy nowadays.
Speaker 1:Yeah, people are crazy nowadays, like this is why me and my cousin we have this relationship because we know we're not judging, and so we would always like hey, in case someone asks you know where am I, you know who I mess with? Yeah, because you have to. You have to, especially now Like things are getting worse. Guys, people are owning weapons. You know you can go down, you can't go to school. It's not. No, we're safe. Nothing's safe. The market's not good. We're not safe Society is. Be careful yeah.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying Look for the red flags.
Speaker 2:Oh girl, I was thinking about that. I was thinking about we should revisit the red flag episode because I thought of one for you and he was like, god damn it, one of the red flags for you, which is I'm like I know, I just say it, if the guy you like asks you for a favor for the person that he's with, don't fucking do it. That's a red flag, it's a big red flag. I was like how did I miss that one? One day we will come to that was me being nice.
Speaker 1:It's stupid. Yeah yeah, being stupid, I'm like no, that just says a lot about me. No, he's a red flag. He knew what he was doing. Exactly, you know you need to ask him. He's the kind of person I am. I'm nice, I'm not fucked up, but regardless.
Speaker 2:Dude, you know what I was laughing about when you said share location. Remember that one time that I followed you to a date at a Starbucks.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, oh my God, we didn't know each other. You had your headphones in and you were like when we went to the car, you kept looking. I was like, where is he taking her? I tried not to look at you or make eye contact, but I think, oh boy, you knew that.
Speaker 2:You probably knew that I wasn't a stalker, yeah.
Speaker 1:You were so fucked.
Speaker 2:I went into the smoke shop I was like, oh, that was right next to us.
Speaker 1:But the way that you would look when you see me, I get it. You were trying to be like is she okay? But, I was like I'm good, I'm good If we made it this far, we're good. But yeah, see, and someone else dropped me off. One of my friends dropped me off to that date and yeah, it's because you never know. I don't want them to know my car, I don't want them to know anything. I get there before they get there. Yeah now that you have a car you do.
Speaker 2:You know, when you get a car I still took Uber's now and I asked to be dropped off. You know what I do when I get dropped off now, I give them the address of where I used to live. So if they want to go knocking over there, they're going to encounter all those boys, not me. And then I just walked into my house. That's fine, yeah, are they going to try to follow me? You know how that house is. Oh my God, I think this is our longest episode yet, but it was very important to get it all out and I hope that you feel better and we're sorry about being late.
Speaker 1:Yes, it's because of my lack of no voice. So, yeah, sorry about that, but everyone have a good day or night and have a great week.
Speaker 2:We will talk to you next week. Oh, what are we talking about? Next week, girl, you're going to say goodbye.
Speaker 1:I know, I guess I think there's a lot to say. Our next episode is going to be about work. Yeah, the stressful environment, or just work. We'll just call it work, cause I don't know what else to say about it. It's just work. We do it every day.
Speaker 2:We need to do it for the money To be a little more. I guess specific about it is like this podcast is about relationships and life in general, right, so like we create relationships at work or we have people that we don't have a relationship with and they still fuck up our life, so, correct, we're going to go into that to you know, kind of move a little bit away from the romance of it all, or you know, yeah, cause a lot of us here are in relationship, myself we know girl, we know Keep throwing it in my face.
Speaker 1:I'm not. Throwing it in your face, I'm not. No, no, no no, I would like to be on your team, oh shit.
Speaker 2:I'm just kidding, I'm not kidding you know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Like. I'm used to being the single one that I'm like. This is so new to me so I know I'm just kidding. I really don't mind it to myself.
Speaker 2:I'm so used to being the one like couple that I'm now like fucking, don't put me with someone, cause like that was the last bit of cheese. May, I know we went over our time limit, but we'll talk later and you guys will see you next week. Bye, bye.
