SPEAKER_02 0:00

Hey, what's up, guys? We're back for another episode of the Feed Watchers. I'm Ronita, the host of the show.

SPEAKER_00 0:11

Eric is right here with y'all live and direct.

SPEAKER_02 0:15

All right. All right. So, Eric, how you been doing? What's going on? You feeling OK today?

SPEAKER_00 0:19

Hey, it's been a week, man. I'm at a one-week summer vacation, and I'm not ready to go back yet. But, hey, work needs some money now, so it's time to get back to work.

SPEAKER_02 0:31

Okay, okay. How

SPEAKER_00 0:32

are you feeling? How have you been doing?

SPEAKER_02 0:33

I've been doing okay. You know, same. It's just, you know, bracing this heat.

SPEAKER_00 0:39

Yeah. You know,

SPEAKER_02 0:40

getting last-minute things done, you know, before getting back full-time at work.

SPEAKER_00 0:45

Yep, yep. Sounds good. Sounds good. So...

SPEAKER_02 0:49

All right, so I'm going to go ahead. We're going to switch it up a little bit. I'm going to start with the question of today.

SPEAKER_01 0:55

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 0:56

So I have, when was the last time someone like showed you an act of kindness? My

SPEAKER_01 1:10

pronunciation.

SPEAKER_02 1:12

So when was the last time someone was kind to you or you were like... out of the blue kind to someone. Before you answer, I was debating with this question, but as I was scrolling last week and this week, I don't know if you saw it on Facebook. There was a lady out of Columbia, the Burger King, and she was left alone. Basically, everybody had like call out. She was a single mom and she was running, you know, the store by herself, taking the orders, doing everything. She was the only employee there. Long story short, there was a family visiting from Charleston and they recorded it. It went viral. So the local news station brought her in, you know, like a regular little interview. And at the end, they surprised her and the person that recorded her with a $500, you know, so that was like a act of kindness. That's why I came up with that question.

SPEAKER_00 2:05

Okay. Yeah. Hey, shouts out to the lady for doing that because I know that could not have been easy to run a whole restaurant by yourself. I've only seen that done one time during the COVID era down at the beach when people just were refusing to come to work. I've seen somebody I've seen it was more than one person. It definitely wasn't a one person. So yeah, that shouts out to her for sure. But last time somebody did an of kindness for me or act of kindness last act of kindness I've done um I would have to say probably bought me dinner um I got a dinner paid for recently okay just nice nice dinner just going out and just said hey you know I'm gonna take care of this for you you know so that was that was a very kind act of her young lady to do that for me she didn't have to do that but she was just trying to cheer me up give me a Made me have a good day, so she bought me some dinner.

SPEAKER_02 3:04

Shout out to the young lady that did

SPEAKER_00 3:06

that. Yeah, shout out to her. What was the last act of kindness you did?

SPEAKER_02 3:13

Okay, the last act of kindness I did, it was actually the weekend of the 4th. And me and my significant other, we were coming from a get-together on the beach. We stopped at a gas station to get some gas. And it was a elderly lady in front of me. And she was, you know, talking to me, you know, if I can remember, she was asking, she was asking me like the color of my hair, the brown. She's like, what number color is that? And I was kind of, you know, tipsy. So I was like, ma'am, I'm done. I cannot give you an exact answer, but it's brown. It's brownish.

SPEAKER_01 3:52

Brown,

SPEAKER_02 3:52

brown. And we laughed and joked. So, she went in front of me. She had like a hot dog and maybe a soap fountain drink or something. So, I just paid for it for her.

SPEAKER_00 4:01

Okay. That was nice of her. Well, shout out to the lady who, you know, needed to know your hair color. You had no idea. Why would you ask somebody that? Nobody be thinking about that at the last minute. Like, that's... It's Brown. I don't know. Autumn Brown. I don't know. That's a crazy question, but okay. But yeah, that was a real kind of thing for you to do that for her, even though she was aggravating you. Oh, man. All right. Well, I'm going to get into my first thing that I saw online this week and I thought was interesting. They've been talking about this question. Cardi B thing. You seen that where Cardi B and she started dating the football player and Offset has seemingly gotten really upset about this new relationship Cardi is in. And I brought up the question online. People were asking, can men deal with women moving on? And an even deeper question is, For celebrities, does that make it that much harder if you're in the spotlight? Can you move and you deal with your significant other moving on after a breakup? So how do you feel about that, Renita? You think it's harder for celebrities to move on after they break up and see their partner with somebody else?

SPEAKER_02 5:23

I personally, I don't think so, because you have some celebrities that move on. They move on, you know, just fine. Speaking from personal experience, I feel like if you're in a relationship and then you break up and if you're struggling or the person that you broke up with is struggling to move on, it's because inside they're wrong. They still kind of want you. They're not really over you or they know that, hey, I messed up. And then I messed up and now... that person is leveling up. Like they moved on, you know?

SPEAKER_00 6:03

Yeah. Well, I mean, Offset has been like sending threats to this dude. It's getting deep. Like I feel like if you're in the public eye like that, you kind of got to just tone that down because you're looking kind of like a square at this point. And like you lost your woman. Just let that go. It's okay. You know, you messed up. Like you just said, you messed up in some kind of way. She didn't leave for nothing. So the next man just stepped up. I said, it is what it is. You can't be upset about that, but don't go out here looking like a square. Getting all upset and having people talking about you all online. Like, oh, man, what is going on with this dude? Like, he is freaking out about losing his girl. And it's like, it's not that serious, man. Just move on. You offset still. You ain't going to have a hard time finding another Cardi B, bro. It's okay. Calm down. So, yeah. Just, yeah. I just thought that was an interesting story this week. A lot of people have been talking about that one online. So, yeah. Let's go to the next one. What you got?

SPEAKER_02 7:06

Okay. I have kids need they daddy. I don't care how good of a mother you are.

SPEAKER_00 7:15

Yes. A hundred percent. Yeah. Fathers, please stay in your children's lives because children will children that grow up without a father. I feel like or grow up at a disadvantage. They're missing something that they crave. And they will act out in the most insane ways because they're craving that thing that they're missing, which is their father. Or it could just be seeing other kids have their father around and just not having that same love or affection from a male figure. Some people don't even get to know who their father is all their life. That's just rough. So, yeah, men, if you can stay in your children's lives, I know it's not always easy because some women don't always make it the easiest to stay in your children's lives. I'm not trying to always say it's the man's fault. Sometimes it can be the woman's fault and she can push that man away to a point where he doesn't get an opportunity to be in that child's life. But if you have the opportunity to be in your child's life, definitely stay in your child's life. But how do you feel about that, Renita?

SPEAKER_02 8:29

I feel like pretty much piggybacking off what you said. I feel like if that man is not harming the child, he's not putting that child around anyone to harm it. I totally agree. A child needs their dad. And when I was younger, my opinion was boys need their dad. But speaking again, because I like to keep things personal from personal experience, like as a child growing up with my parents, you know, I needed my dad, you know, certain things girls need her dad for as well, because honestly speaking, that is the first impression she has, you know, of how to be treated by, you know, a male, you know, in certain things. So I feel like all kids need her dad, whether that's a boy or a girl. And if that dad is doing his part, regardless of what you and the dad have going on, I don't care if it's different locations, whatever the case may be. Yeah. The kids need their dad. They need their dad.

SPEAKER_00 9:29

Now, what do you say to the argument that some people would say men who grow up without a father and only grow up around women, that makes them soft? Do you agree with that?

SPEAKER_02 9:41

I do not. Because my opinion on that is that men that grow up without a dad, in most cases from what I've seen, they either, one, become awesome dads. and wonderful men or whatever they get from the streets. So if they was raised by the streets and not so like in the streets, but like if a man in the street was how they saw like a dad figure, if that man was stepping right, then they're going to, you know, they're going to step up because they didn't have it and they grew up without it. So it kind of fuels them to want to do right. So I don't, you know, I don't think that that makes them soft. Yeah. But nowadays it's like simple things will make a man soft. You listening to your significant other, you will be soft.

SPEAKER_00 10:30

It depends on who your friends are. Choose friends wisely. Because your significant other will tell you to do something. Don't make you soft.

SPEAKER_02 10:39

Exactly. But you see how nowadays

SPEAKER_00 10:41

it's like, oh, you're soft. Choose your friends wisely. You want to be with them or you want to be in love? It's your choice. It gets lonely at night, just saying. Oh, man. But yeah, definitely. I think that's something that more people need to talk about and not because the old way of thinking was that men had to stay in their sons' lives. And like you said, it was only mostly about men staying in boys' lives, but nobody really focused on the little girls or they got their moms, so they'll be okay. I'm a father of two girls and I couldn't imagine not being in their lives and them not having that connection with me because I feel like that would have been, like I said, that disadvantage. They would have missed out a lot of things that they would have wanted. I know that they've had conversations with me where they told me, you know, dad, you worked a lot of times. So there was a lot of times where you weren't around and we felt like we missed out on time with you and stuff like that. So yeah. I can't imagine just not showing up the entirety of their lives. So I believe that goes both ways. You got to stay in both girls and boys lives. That's just very important. So, yep. So we're going to go to the next one. And I saw this one and this is always interesting conversation for me. So this one says it's a picture and it's, Says no one, that one person. And it's a person who's got tomatoes next to them with their tongue sticking out like, ew. And then a person with pizza, spaghetti, and ketchup next to them. And they're cleaning their face like, yeah, that's great. So basically saying people who don't like tomatoes but still like ketchup. Do you like tomatoes and ketchup or is it like a one or the other type thing for

SPEAKER_02 12:46

you? I love them both. Tomatoes, ketchup, all of it. I'll be standing there eating the tomatoes. I could dice it, wash a tomato, dice it, add it. I love to make tomato and cucumber salad. But my daughter, she is definitely that. She don't want tomatoes. But she will... eat pizza, she will eat ketchup. But if I give her like a raw tomato or even cooked tomatoes, because hey, tomatoes and grits, she don't want it. She will not mess with it.

SPEAKER_00 13:14

What is that? Where do you think she got that from?

SPEAKER_02 13:18

I have no idea. It's just like people that's like, oh, I don't eat pork, but then they'll get some greens with pork cooked in it. Like I'm going to pick the meat out. Like, well, you might as well just eat it because it's the juice

SPEAKER_00 13:28

and everything is in there. Right. You're right about that. Yeah. People are that silly with it because it makes absolutely no sense for people. For me, people that say I eat peanut butter, but not jelly. I don't. To me, I'm a peanut butter and jelly guy. I can't do peanut butter by itself or people that can do jelly without peanut butter. Maybe sometimes, but I'm just not. I got to have both. That consistency ain't right if it ain't both. Certain things, they just don't add up to me where you can eat one, but you don't realize that it's made by the same thing. How are you missing out on one but not the other? That's crazy to me. What you got up next, Renita?

SPEAKER_02 14:19

Okay, next. I saw this one and it was funny to me. Black aunties get on Facebook and say anything. Love that picture. Stomach getting big. Uncle Joe died in his sleep. Call me. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 14:33

That is definitely black.

SPEAKER_02 14:37

That was funny to me because it's like I have an aunt and she does get on Facebook and say like anything. And but, you know, me, her talk a lot. So even like if I call her, like it's typically how the conversation or if I pull up at her house or whatever, that's like, are you getting big? You know, she's

SPEAKER_00 14:54

just calling out everything.

SPEAKER_02 14:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:56

Just call you out on all your stuff. Everybody got that out. Just deal with it. You just want to call her up and say, hey, get off Facebook. You shouldn't be on social media. But you know that that's usually your favorite hot dog. Yeah, and that's true. See, that's usually your favorite hot dog because she crack you up every time because you know she's about to say something crazy. You'd be sitting there at the family reunion waiting for her to get there because she'd be like, oh, she got one for me. I know she got one for me. So, yeah, that's always funny to have that one eye that's coming out there just throwing them at you. But it takes a little bit. It hurts a little when it's a little bit of a jab sometimes. When they start throwing the jabs, it starts to sting a little bit. Oh, man. My next one says, and this one came about because I was bored this week. I wasn't watching much on TV this week and I ended up Watching some old episodes of Fraternity Court. Don't ask me why. I just watch random court shows sometimes. And I haven't seen it in a while. But the episodes on there were so wild and just outrageous. And then I came across this post online. And it said, most women say all men cheat. But on the Maury show, 90% of the men are not the father. So... I thought that was kind of funny because I'm sitting there, like I said, watching paternity court. And I thought back to like the old days when Maury was on and all them doggone women would just be on there. I believe 110 percent this is the father of my child. And then they say not the father. She all over the floor yelling and screaming and hollering and crying. Oh, no, it can't be nobody else. Clearly it is. So what do you think about that statement? All these women saying all these men out here cheating, but clearly. you know, when it comes down to it, a lot of y'all cheating too. Cause when y'all taking these men on these court shows and stuff like that, they don't be daddy. So obviously y'all been stepping out somewhere along the line too. How you feel about that?

SPEAKER_02 17:09

I feel like, you know, I'm gonna keep it. I'm not going to be biased. I feel like, like it goes both ways. And if a person want to cheat, they're going to cheat. So like, again, catch me in my younger days. I would be on that. All men cheat, all men hoes, all men dogs. But you know, with age comes with age, you get more wiser. So now I'm like, if a person want to cheat, they're going to cheat. Whether that person is the man or the woman, you know? And it's like, and then another thing that I realized as well, like you don't know nobody. So like you can say, okay, we live together. He home every night. She home every night. Okay. They got other avenues, right? other times when they're doing what they're doing. So you just have to just know what you're doing. And that's how my mom raised me. Know what you're doing. You know what your parts are doing. You're accountable for it. So you got to know what you're doing because at the end of the day, if a person want to cheat, they're going to cheat. And I think with women though, from working around a lot of women in the military or whatever, most women that Do cheat. It's kind of like get back. You know, I think they're more so it's like people don't really adult when it comes to a situation like, OK, I know my man cheating. So screw it. I'm gonna go cheat, too. You know, that's kind of like how that

SPEAKER_00 18:27

you don't

SPEAKER_02 18:27

think so.

SPEAKER_00 18:28

Now, some women cheat because. I have always been of the principle that women cheat better than men. Women are smarter at cheating than men are. First of all, if y'all, y'all can cheat and never get caught. That's

SPEAKER_02 18:40

absolutely true. But that's not where, that's not what we're on. We're on. No. Once the, once the man starts cheating and the woman knows it, like sometimes a woman to know that a man is cheating independent, she might not even say nothing to mention it. She might just go cheat back. So it's one of those things where it's like two wrongs don't make a right. You know, she should. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 19:02

But you're saying no woman cheats because just for the fact of like, the man could not have done anything at all. And she won't cheat at all.

SPEAKER_02 19:11

I'm not going to say that. I said most. Yeah. I said in most cases, it's like, okay, I know he's stepping out. Oh, he ain't came home tonight. So I'm gonna go get back. You know what I'm saying? Most of it is like, get back. But yeah, Back to the beginning of how I stated it. If a person wants to cheat, then they're going to cheat. And you do have some women that's like, okay, he's fine. Like I want to, you know, like I remember when I was a kid, my mom would always say like when she was growing up, you know, men actually like came to your parents' house, you know, like ask for permission to like date your daughter, you know, like the men where they're like, they, you pursued women. Nowadays, it's like, you probably can pull up to the gas station or have pulled up anywhere or been out and about. Oh, you fine. You know what I'm saying? It's like, they just, they not, but you get where I'm coming from. And it's not even like, and I'm not saying all the women, but you will have it where women nowadays, they just throw their self, throw their self away. onto men so most men they don't even have to try it's like they have to deny it you know because it's like they're constantly getting swarmed by women because like nowadays women are

SPEAKER_00 20:23

like they're pouncing

SPEAKER_02 20:25

they're the chasers

SPEAKER_00 20:27

I give you with that one so it's like

SPEAKER_02 20:30

men can't handle and I'm sorry fellas but I just this is I gotta just call it how I see it men can't handle temptation like women can like in most cases Us women, we're not easily tipped.

SPEAKER_00 20:45

Tell me about it.

SPEAKER_02 20:46

Men are easily tipped. Men are easily tipped. Not in all cases, but most cases. Because I cannot say all, but I am going to say most. So you basically said men are easy. They're easily tipped. You can't handle temptation well. You cannot handle temptation. Your body is not even designed to handle temptation well.

SPEAKER_00 21:10

No, that's not true. That is very true. That is so untrue. It's very true. I can control my hormones enough if I want. Just because an attractive woman comes at me and is interested in me, that doesn't mean I have to do anything with that woman. I can just say, hey, it's nice to meet you and keep it pushing.

SPEAKER_02 21:31

I'm not talking about attraction only. I said easily tempt. Okay, so that woman touches you. You might have a woman at your job site. You know, you out in public and she just grab you. You're a man. So your body is not even designed to handle. No, it's not. Whoa. I saw something about that when I was scrolling too.

SPEAKER_00 21:50

Me too. Depending on the

SPEAKER_02 21:51

look. That's how y'all handle that harassment.

SPEAKER_00 21:55

No, if you grab me and take it, that is right.

SPEAKER_02 21:57

Not take it, just touch you. Like if a woman walked up.

SPEAKER_00 22:00

That a sexual assault.

SPEAKER_02 22:01

Sounds

SPEAKER_00 22:04

good. Sounds good. That's the

SPEAKER_02 22:07

fact. Men are easily tempted.

SPEAKER_00 22:11

Women, we are not. So basically what you just said is we as men will sit there and let somebody just rape

SPEAKER_02 22:18

us. Depending on the person. Depending on the person.

SPEAKER_00 22:22

Okay, we're going to have to come back to that. Everybody listening, definitely hit us up on our Facebook page and definitely let us know if y'all agree with Renita's statement that men are easily tempted and that we would just let women just do all kinds of ungodly things to us just because we are weak. If y'all agree with that statement, hit us up on Facebook, send us some, send us y'all comments and posts and let us know what y'all think about that. Because we, I'm definitely interested in finding out what the response is. And we got definitely going to talk about that on a later show when we get these responses. Oh yeah. Cause I'm, I'm waiting. They're going to eat you up for that one. I'm telling you, they're going to eat you up. You can't stand my words now.

SPEAKER_02 23:12

Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 23:13

We'll see. All right. All right. Yeah. Remember Facebook, the feed, watch us, check us out and, Definitely post about that. Let us know what y'all think. All right, man, let's get back into some sensible talk. I saw this post and it was dear to my heart because, yeah, this was me. Everyone's first job was at McDonald's. Prove me wrong. My first job was definitely at McDonald's. And I know a lot of people that definitely, I meet people randomly all the time. And we'll just be talking about all kinds of everyday stuff. And that'll always come up in conversation. They'll be like, yeah, man, you know, the first time I ever got me a job, I was working at McDonald's. And I'll be like, hey, me too. It's like we in a gang, like the McDonald's gang. So that's always cool to me. But, Renina, where was your first job at?

SPEAKER_02 24:02

Oh, my first job, thanks for my mom. My first job was at Kingston Plantation, but my mom was there. So she, you know, she, when my 16th birthday, she's like, what do you want? You know, I want a job. So she, you know, made it happen. And I worked in a bar. That's what I did at 16. Hold up, that's illegal. No. I wasn't bartending. Buster. You can't be a raw alcoholic, 16.

SPEAKER_00 24:35

Yes, you can. Since when? Oh, these was, okay. This was some years ago. So yeah, that was a little different problem. Okay. All right. I'll let you have that one. Have you ever worked fast food?

SPEAKER_02 24:46

Um, yes, I have.

SPEAKER_00 24:48

Where do you work?

SPEAKER_02 24:48

I worked at, so I did the hotel in the summertime, but you know, like it will slow down like in the wintertime. So one of my cousins, she was a manager at Bojangles, like right there off 22. And it was like right around the corner from where I was normally working. So I would do that.

SPEAKER_00 25:04

Okay. How'd you like Bojangles? What was that like?

SPEAKER_02 25:07

It was not bad. I'm like an introvert, so I just would volunteer for biscuits because, you know, I'd just be there like mixing and doing that. That kept me like out of the, you know, all the other stuff. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 25:19

You didn't get involved in the work

SPEAKER_02 25:21

politics? No, no, no, no. I just want to work, do my shift, make my little change. You know, when you're young and you start making money, it's like you get it. Well, I did. I got addicted to making money, so it's like. Same.

SPEAKER_00 25:31

My first checking I think it was $175. I thought I was rich. You couldn't tell me nothing with my $175 check. I was like, oh, man, I'm balling. I'm in high school. I got my first little bit of money. I'm good now. Yeah, I mean, shoot, McDonald's. Man, my McDonald's that I worked at, it was... Man, it was like a party every day. I went to work with all the people I went to school with. So it was literally like we leave school from seeing each other all day, didn't go to work all night and just cut up all night. Man, we had a ball. It was too much fun. I miss those days because, I mean, you know, it was like I said, it was really just like a gang. Like it was the McDonald's gang. Like everybody, everybody was, you know, I did. I wasn't so much an introvert. So I did get involved in the workplace drama. And trust me, there was a lot of it. Shout out to the girl that got TV dropped on her head that night. Oh, baby. But yeah, yeah, we had a lot going on at that McDonald's. Shout out to McDonald's. I won't say which one it is. It's just local McDonald's. Yeah. Shout out to the local McDonald's in Florence. That was my first place. So, yeah. So go ahead. Give me your next one, Renita.

SPEAKER_02 26:48

OK, my next one. I saw this one and it stood out to me. Mangoes Viral. After he said he only shops at Walmart and still remains clean and fresh.

SPEAKER_00 26:59

I saw that. And that outfit that dude had on did not look like it came from Walmart. I'm going to just go ahead and say that don't look like it came from the Walmart. Because he was, yeah, he wasn't lying. I mean, if he only shopping at Walmart, he doing something good. He doing something special. He must have a secret hidden section in Walmart that we don't know about because he's seen the kind of attire in the Walmart.

SPEAKER_02 27:30

Yeah, they have it.

SPEAKER_00 27:32

You've seen that

SPEAKER_02 27:33

kind

SPEAKER_00 27:33

of stuff? Yes. Oh, okay. Well, like I said, the homeboy was pretty clean for a Walmart outfit. You

SPEAKER_02 27:40

know, now Walmart be selling, I'm Reebok. Well,

SPEAKER_00 27:43

yeah, shoes and stuff. I mean, but they also sell Shaquille O'Neal shoes. So, I mean, you know, that's like they top sellers. So, I mean, I don't shoes wise. We ain't going to go like clothes wise. Like I said, yeah, I mean, I mean, I know they have Polo now. They do have Polo and Walmart. a form of polo I guess so I mean you can get some gear fresh gear out of Walmart but like I said that to me that outfit just didn't look like it was Walmart but I mean would you wear I say that but I feel like I already know the answer to this would you wear a $20 outfit out of like Walmart

SPEAKER_02 28:27

all the time Walmart I don't care like name brand doesn't mean nothing to me I was always raised clean so it As long as it's clean, you keep yourself put together. You know, it doesn't matter, you know, what you have on as long as you clean, you're clean, you know, you don't wash yourself and you keep your clothes clean. And I teach my children that like, don't get caught up into name brand. And if you want the name brand, that's fine. And you're in a position to go purchase it, but it's like, you don't have to have on like name brand all the time. I got on a Walmart cami t-shirt under my work shirt.

UNKNOWN 29:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 29:00

Three dollars. They got to have these expensive, nice clothes, true religion and, you know, all these type name brands. And it's like that is a horrible way to start your kids out. Like, don't get them started. Go and get them that little Pokemon shirt from Walmart and let them ride. They young. Let them stay young. They don't need to be dressing like an old grown man. Like you six years old and you dressing like the old man in the club. Like why? Yeah. Like, come on. You're just like Uncle Leroy to be in the back of the club talking about, hey, little girl, come here. Like, come on, bro. Stop it. Don't do that to kids. Let them dress age appropriate and stop putting them in these doggone grown up outfits and these name brand outfits and making them grow up to think that they got to blow all the money trying to keep up with what everybody else is looking like. That is not important. That is way past outside of importance. So, yeah, the value of teaching. Yeah, I like that. The value of teaching the kids that that right there is smart. What that young man is talking about he is doing is a very smart thing to do. And kids, that's like they can learn a valuable lesson from that guy. I agree with that 100%. So since we're on the topic of Walmart, my next post, crazy about that. What if your man bought you a $70 ring at Walmart and proposed to you? What you doing?

SPEAKER_02 30:53

I mean, for me. where the ring comes from I'm not a jewelry person and my dad has me like that I remember I was in third grade my dad always would buy gold for me he wore gold or whatever and I had this necklace with a cross 14k and I lost it you know we went to the murder beach state park on a field trip and I came home my dad would tear my behind up at that point I don't even want real jewelry no more so I would wear like costume earrings Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Take the money and probably go on like a vacation somewhere like Azad. That's more of me. But I feel like whatever floats your boat, you know, if you're into that and hey, I'm not and I'm not going to judge a person that's into it because hey, the man should know his girl.

SPEAKER_00 32:05

Yeah, I like that. I agree with that. And I wish more women would think like that because there's a lot of women that do not agree with that statement you just made. Just now they're going to be like, is you silly? What are you talking about? Did he say a $70 ring from Walmart? Oh, no, he better go throw that garbage in the trash. Ain't nobody taking that. And it's like, OK, if you've been in a relationship with somebody and you really care about that person, what is it that you care about? What they can do for you? Or them as a person? Because that's what that's basically that state that that question is asking. Are you into them because of the things that they can buy you and the things that they can get for you? Or are you into them because of them as a person and you actually genuinely care about them? Because if you genuinely care about a person, you're going to feel exactly like how you said, I don't care if you get me a Cracker Jack. ring from you know the bubble gum machine I don't care as long as I'm in love with you I'm gonna take that and I'm gonna wear my ring proudly and say hey this is what my man got me and like you said I don't need no big wedding no big fancy huge wedding I just need me and my partner to be there and sign that paperwork and legally say we coming together as one so whatever I can do to get to that that's all that matters to me and you know But more women, I'm not going to say a lot of women think like that, but more women than not think that it's more about the materialistic. Oh, you got to, you know, they always say the ring should be, what is it, 10% of your paycheck or something like that.

UNKNOWN 33:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 33:47

or your annual salary or whatever. And it's like most guys can't afford that realistically. So, I mean, take what your guy can afford. And if you really care about him and you're doing it for the right reasons, he's going to do whatever he can to get you something very nice. But, you know, it's about how you feel about your partner at the end of the day. And that's what's most important. That's what people have to understand for sure. So what you got for your next one, Renita?

SPEAKER_02 34:16

My next one. So this one was hilarious to me. Do you ever wish you could kill somebody, bring them back and be like, see, stop doing dumb shit?

SPEAKER_00 34:29

I think I saw the same post. Oh, my God. That's that's evil for one. Are you going to kill somebody and bring them back just to chastise them? That's messed up. I already killed him. Ain't that punishment enough? No, no, not at all. See, you need to laugh right now. That scares me because I feel like she agrees with this statement a hundred percent. Like she's like, yep, you make me mad enough. I'll do it.

SPEAKER_02 34:57

It's funny, you know, like it's funny because, you know, a lot of times people will take your kindness for weakness and it don't even have to be relationship wise. It could be work wise. It could be family wise. You know, it's like you need maybe you need a reminder maybe you need to know

SPEAKER_00 35:15

why you gotta go to that extreme

SPEAKER_02 35:17

because nowadays like a lot of times words don't mean nothing people are like I'm an action person so it's like you can tell somebody several times stop playing with me in some case it could be your kids you know Stop playing with me. You know, growing up, I took you out. I brought you in this world and I'll take you out. They weren't even trying to bring you back. They were just letting you know. Back then, that was enough to shed a kid, you know, get a kid to act right. Right. Nowadays, these kids, man, you be in jail. Yeah,

SPEAKER_00 35:50

for sure.

SPEAKER_02 35:52

Just by saying that.

SPEAKER_00 35:53

Yeah, for sure. You definitely can't say that now. No. CPS be at your house. Nah. Yeah, but I just, like I said, if they did, like, I feel like the damage is done. Why bring them back just to just go back over it again? Like, that's like, that would be like the ultimate nightmare of like, you know what? I'm tired of arguing with this woman. She keeps going through the same argument with me over and over again. And I killed myself. And then all of a sudden Jesus be like, nah, you got to go back and still listen to that. She wasn't done yet.

SPEAKER_02 36:23

But it's like relationships, you know, you might be like, okay, you break up with someone, y'all break up, whatever, separate, good separatist. And then you, you mend it. It's kind of the same thing without the killing. Think about it. Because 90% of times things don't get better. It's like, it's a scar. You know, you could patch it up. You can cover it up, but it doesn't really heal. You know what I mean? So it's like, and you ask yourself, why am I here? Why did I do this? Why did I come back to this? Like, why am I putting myself in this situation again? It's the same. The only difference is the person didn't kill you.

SPEAKER_00 36:55

But did you die,

SPEAKER_02 36:57

though? Mentally. You can mentally die.

SPEAKER_00 36:59

You can, for sure. A

SPEAKER_02 37:01

lot of people are mentally dead.

SPEAKER_00 37:03

A lot. You're right about that. So it

SPEAKER_02 37:05

gets deep. Now, how deep do you want to go?

SPEAKER_00 37:07

Man, that's a little bit too deep for me. I mean, like I said, you lost me at the killing and bringing them back. Like, I'm dead. Let me stay dead. Like, don't bring me back. Like, I escaped this. Like, I died. And I'm like, ooh, good. I don't have to hear that. I'm like, man, I'm going to chill up in heaven and just rock it out. Nah. Nah, nah, nah. Bringing them back. You're right, though. You could relate that to a relationship. Because if you separate and then y'all come back together and y'all going back through, that's what you call a toxic relationship, by the way, for y'all that don't understand. For you that are in a toxic relationship and don't know it, what Renita just described as a toxic relationship. So yeah, you're welcome. That is a very toxic relationship if you're doing those things right there. That is called a toxic relationship. You're welcome for that. Yeah, you just take that and run with it. Yeah, take that and use that accordingly. And if you feel the need to kill somebody and want to bring them back and still go after them and constantly own them about the same things you killed them for. Yeah, that's toxic. You need to get out of that as well. That's super toxic. Oh, my God. That is super toxic. That's a whole nother level of toxicity. But no, that was a good one. All right. I'm going to bring it to the top take of the day. So I saw this one and I I know some people on social media kind of get messed up with their words and confused with what they trying to say sometimes. So I'm going to read this one very slowly and I'm going to just read it and I'm going to just let you go ahead and give me your opinion on what you think this is supposed to mean. It says, fellas, if you catch your chick in a car with a ninja and you fucking who? Okay, let me try that one more time. Fellas, if you catch your chick in the car with a ninja, who are you shooting first?

SPEAKER_02 39:12

That is some rainbow type activities. But in today's world, I mean, you never know. I

SPEAKER_00 39:23

wanted to think that they meant to say like,

SPEAKER_02 39:29

They meant what they said. You can't think about it. You a man. And even if you were making it, cause I get it. Everybody is like, you know, if you're into social media, you're posting stuff, whatever it is, content creative, trying to make money, you know? So I get it. You might just say stuff. That's not even true. You just try to be hilarious. Whatever case may be, you're not gonna typo something like that.

SPEAKER_00 39:50

Cause I was like, did

SPEAKER_02 39:52

they type that right?

SPEAKER_00 39:53

Like,

SPEAKER_02 39:53

yeah, they typed that right.

SPEAKER_00 39:55

What a nigga. You fucking who you shoot. Wait, if he gets his chick, if you get fellas, if you catch your chick in the car with a dude, you fucking who are you going to shoot first? Who do you shoot first in that situation? That's

SPEAKER_02 40:11

some rainbow activities. Who do you shoot first in that situation? Well, see, I'm not a ninja.

SPEAKER_00 40:20

As a female, who do you shoot first in that situation?

SPEAKER_02 40:24

I don't partake in those kind of activities. No, no three ways. No, none of that. Like, again, what a person do, I cannot control, you know? So, hey, but if you, uh-uh, we're not, uh-uh. No. Three's a crowd, too, so I

SPEAKER_00 40:40

could not... No, no, I'm saying if you catch your partner in... Oh, well.

SPEAKER_02 40:43

Yeah, that's a crime. So I ain't going to be catching my partner. If I got to chase you, I ain't no track star and I'm not no police. I ain't locking nobody up. I ain't doing either one of that. So, hey, I ain't going to catch you. If my partner is partaking in that, he's just doing that. That's something he's doing on his own because I

SPEAKER_00 41:01

ain't. That's what I was about to say. We're going to rephrase the question the way that I thought it was originally supposed to be because I'm not answering that question the way it's written. That's rainbow. It's giving rainbow. So if you were to catch Get your spouse in the car with another female who you shooting first.

SPEAKER_02 41:17

You know what I'm

SPEAKER_00 41:18

going to do? I'm scared. I

SPEAKER_02 41:20

ain't going to shoot nobody.

SPEAKER_00 41:21

Really?

SPEAKER_02 41:23

I'm going to wave at him and keep walking.

SPEAKER_00 41:25

That's so adult of you.

SPEAKER_02 41:32

You know why? Why

SPEAKER_00 41:33

is that?

SPEAKER_02 41:34

No reaction is the best reaction.

SPEAKER_00 41:36

Oh, hell no. I don't agree. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02 41:40

So what would you do?

SPEAKER_00 41:41

I'm shooting both of them.

SPEAKER_02 41:43

Let's see. That's not, it's not worth it. So that's worth your freedom. Who said I'm going to get caught? Who said that? That could be your way of out, you know, being done with it. Like why even worry about it? You know, why even allow yourself to get upset, to do something like that over something that's clearly already happened and probably been happening and,

SPEAKER_00 42:08

I got mad. Get

SPEAKER_02 42:10

mad and do something different.

SPEAKER_00 42:12

I lost my temper.

SPEAKER_02 42:13

Lose your temper and do something different. It's not worth it.

SPEAKER_00 42:17

You're right. It's not worth it. Mentally, you're right. And by society standards, you're saying the right thing. but common sense standards tells me both of them got to go. I'm sorry. You

SPEAKER_02 42:32

crazy.

SPEAKER_00 42:33

A little

SPEAKER_02 42:36

bit. The only way that I will react in a situation like that, like a female will have to come to me. You see what I'm saying? Not like, like come for me. You see what I'm saying? Like, you know, cause like, And nowadays, and even in the old days, people are going to always do what they're going to do. Somewhere down the line, whatever the case may be. But you have people that will come to you. And women are very petty. So now if you come up in my face, now you asking to catch this fade or this ass whipping, however you want to word it. Or you might beat my ass, but you ain't coming to me up in my face about nothing. Now I'm going to react. That will get me out of character. But if I walk up or catch my partner in the act with another female, I'm not... For what? You already... I'ma let y'all have that.

SPEAKER_00 43:18

You're a good person.

SPEAKER_02 43:19

You're right where you want to be.

SPEAKER_00 43:21

You're a really good person, Renita, because I wish I had some of that in me because I'm sorry. You'd be in jail. I'd be in jail. You're like my brother. I'd be under the jail. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02 43:30

You remind me of my brother. I'm

SPEAKER_00 43:33

going under the jail because both of y'all got to go. What the hell?

SPEAKER_02 43:36

My brother was like that. And he, thank God, his big mama, you know, she had enough sense. She called my mom. So, you know, and my mom was on a cruise with her sisters at the time. So she called me. So when I get over there, my brother still... no raising hell. I'm like, yo, she done called mama. Let's just go. He's like, nah, it's the prince. I'm like, Well, if you don't get your ass in this

SPEAKER_00 43:56

car, you're fitting to be in jail. It's the principle.

SPEAKER_02 43:59

I was like, you're fitting to be in jail. She did you a favor. Thank you, sweetheart. Get in the car and let's go because your ass could have been in jail. He still want to add the food.

SPEAKER_00 44:09

And I agree with you. You did the exact right thing, sir. You should have did whatever you needed to go on here and do. Yeah,

SPEAKER_02 44:16

you cannot add the food. Because that's what they want you to do. See, they expect you to do that. No, they probably weren't even

SPEAKER_00 44:21

thinking that. They was having a good old time living it up. Until they saw you and they're like, oh,

SPEAKER_02 44:25

this joker here finna act. He finna go. We dead.

SPEAKER_00 44:29

Oh, yes. So if that thought already crossed their minds, I'm going to just go ahead and cross over that line for them and help them get to what they already feel is about to happen. But imagine

SPEAKER_02 44:37

if you keep going or if you meet eye contact, just wave and keep going. That's going to really mess them up.

SPEAKER_00 44:42

No, because then I got to think about that.

SPEAKER_02 44:44

No, you don't. You just go ahead. That could be God taking you out of that situation. You think so? I know so.

SPEAKER_00 44:52

I don't know about that one. That's a tough one. I'm going to have to take this one back. That's going to be another question for the listeners. Who y'all shooting? We are not going to go with the original question on that. Yeah, no rainbows. No. I'm just saying we not go because I'm not answering the original question in no way, shape or form of my answer in that because I don't agree with that question. So I'm not asking the original question. But if you catch your spouse, your significant other, now, if you happen to be in a relationship like that? Hey, you can answer it from that point of view, but I'm just saying if you catch your spouse or significant other, however you want to word it in a situation with another person and you have a gun and who are you shooting first? Like, are you not going, are you going to go Renita route and not shoot nobody and just let it go? Or are you just going to say, heck, we both of them got to go. Or are you shooting the guy? Are you shooting the girl? How are you doing this thing? Let us know. Check in on the feed. Watch his Facebook page. Leave your comments. Let us know how y'all feel about that.
