Same color just mismatch same color just mismatch same color just mismatch hey hey hey hey what it is happening with everybody and everywhere so just a little thing the thing the thing thing I wanna sing same thing friends friends how many of us have them friends once we can depend on friends like that like how many like how many friends are different than associates associates are different than homies homies are different from passer buys of course we all know what passive buys is and oh yeah miss this is mismatched watch so this is hot on the go you know while I'm driving I should be using both hands you know I'm saying I could use my knee while I drive ha ha so I don't recommend these things because I'm a professional driver so don't get it twisted and don't go doing some stupid things don't do anything that you can't explain to the paramedics okay if you don't want to go there let's not go there okay but yeah friends so homies are different than associates associates are different than blah blah blah okay passer by you just pass them by maybe a neighbor you see in the hallway down the street like oh you know wave at them time to time if you don't that's pretty rude there's a lot of rude people out there and then you know um and then there's the associates just people who like you have to say hello to or you need to say hello to I'm I'm saying like you know like an associate like a co-worker maybe like people who you don't want know your business your business and then there's the homies that kick it drink a beer smoke black you know how to do those things or just hang out maybe go play bowling or you know go meet up or maybe not even that maybe just having a conversation with them seeing how they are just kind of knowing them more than on a name basis and associates you can know them more than a name too a little bit but most of my associates I don't even know their names I actually make up names to fit them because if you don't look like your name they each I kind of change it and I'll let you know too or I'll ask you over and over what your name is and then like change it either you'll know or you won't know and usually if you don't know when I introduce you somebody I will let you I'll be like hey this is and point at you and you introduce yourself and then I'll point at and they'll and they'll say this is and so you guys can it's always better that way anyways just in case they want to be called something else as you know you know I mean so friends friends are the ones that you know like you could not talk to for a long time you know something happens you guys just kind of lose touch for a little bit and then like or a lot of it even years and then like when you talk to them it's like hey what's up it like never ended of talking to them yeah those are friends those are friends that like don't judge you behind your back or in front of your back you know like they don't you know you know they're your friends like um I've had a few friends in my life I've had about eh over five I've had a under 10 true friends and some of them I haven't talked to for a long time because like I refuse to do like this whole like uh social media friendship thing like like I feel friends friends should be out of social media off of online even if it's just on the phone hey I love I want to hear my friends' voices I want to hear I want to hear them I want to hear their their their their voice you know it's so important for us like appreciate hearing people's voices if if they're able to if they're if they're unable to speak like of course you want to see them but like you know a hearing a voice we take for granted like we totally take it for granted like everybody does everybody I don't care anybody who says they don't like they do and like or the sight of somebody you know we take complete advantage of it take it for granted like it's so so important because sometimes when you don't ever when you won't have it again or it's like impossible to have again it's important to just have like a little like a message or video or picture or both or all three. You know um I have some messages um some videos of my friends um I try to take pictures of my friends I try to take vi pictures of our memories because who tomorrow's not promised right for anybody even like the next five minutes is not promised for anybody. And so a couple years ago you know I my my friend Max um I was getting ready at his house for my birthday and I was like oh my gosh I'm gonna take a picture with you and I'm like never mind I'm not ready I don't want like I'm like you look all nice like always all like you know like looking like proper like like perfect and I'm like let me get ready let me like now look like a fro bro like you know uh goof the poof like with my hair and so I did not and then we went out for my birthday and then I was unable to see him again and a couple days later he passed away and that it was really sad because he was like somebody I seen him all I seen all the time I would see him at least every day or every other day and so it was really hard for me to deal with it because he was gone and I was used to his company but even harder because I had that one moment to take the pictures where it just click to me and I didn't take that click that like the snapshot that that picture you know and uh and I I felt terrible like it but it made me start being different and I wish I would take pictures of my friends throughout the years you know because some of them I miss dearly I miss dearly okay there's like I miss them like no other you know there's D Lawrence Armstrong sorry to put your name out there there's Sarah Reed you know there's Linicia Hobson you know there's like a lot of other people that you know I really care about and like no matter what we're gonna be friends there's Lache there's joy those are those are my I talk to them all the time but we've we've been we've been friends for 20 years or more you know like that like no matter what we could pick up the phone and be like hey what's up what's happening you know and and like nothing ever happened regardless if if it was like uh not talking from a fight or from just by becoming busy and not keeping in touch or whatnot like we could pick up the phone and just be perfectly fine you know um or even see each other I have a lot of friends like that I love dearly I take all hold dearly and I've also lost a lot of friends my friends that I've lost like they've made me realize a few things I've learned a few lessons from them like many lessons actually depends on what it is and then I would like be so upset like damn I lost my friend like damn like like I really needed them but they each taught me something individually like many things like like Maxi taught me to take pictures of my moments so I can enjoy them so when I need them or I want to see them like I have a picture I have a video you know so I like got these cameras I got a camera that like prints out the picture right away you know like like I need a new one because it broke but like more than just like the phone you know because phones freaking break and then you're screwed and if you don't have backup like I don't like you're like really screwed and I don't want to be putting my stuff like on like online whatever albums because like they technically own the rights like that company owns your pictures and like I'm not with that like I'm a big privacy freak like I'm not with all that crap and so you know I I recommend taking pictures not just of your friends and your family but like of those moments like even those little stupidest moments where you're just like meeting up and like like just meeting up to say hi or going for coffee like those silliest moments capture that capture those feelings of on picture on like like literally like because you'll be able to look at it and be like damn I really remember that and make you smile you know like um but learning from Max I've had I've taken pictures of my friend Joseph you know he passed away um he's my really good friend my best friend and and I I love him you know and then of two Ty Bay and Kevin they passed away as well as AP Aaron um Jason rest in peace Jesse them two my daughter's named after you know they each taught me lesson Jesse taught me not to drink and drive because people's innocent lives get taken Jason taught me how to be a friend and how to really be a friend and be dependable on not just be like oh I don't feel like it you know like so it really matters some people really especially the older we get we depend on our friends we depend on our own family that we make which is our friends we make our own family like we make our own people like it's not like oh I was born to this or what no it's like when you're older you make your own friends and you are who you hang out with and so you know the older people get the less like contact they have usually and like and it sucks you know it really it really does suck like I wish I had my I wish I seen my siblings too I love my siblings you know Ranelle Daniel Michelle Tiffany Vanessa you know like like I love them I wish I could be around them I love my cousin you know my favorite cousin Courtney hey I love I love her like she's my twin like I love her I love my family I love them dearly but like I don't do my job to keep up with them and I feel terrible but when I'm around them when I do see them I take pictures I take videos I do whatever I can so I I could serve these memories like like so I can remember like oh maybe I don't remember until I see that picture and I was like oh shit I remember that and like even sad moments I take pictures of sad moments too because like it captures that moment of like damn this is like real life right now this is this is what we grow from this is what we become from like this is what can either make us or break us you know ship shape ship shape us you know not shape shift us but ship shape that whatever but like I love my people and friends should be called family you pick because hopefully you're picking real friends and and and that goes to being like doing good like because if you do good for your friends hopefully you'll have good friends and they'll you'll pick good friends and your friends will be good to I hope none of you guys get snaked by quote unquote friends because those aren't friends if they snake you or they if they're like only out for their purpose and I'm not saying you have to be with be there for somebody just because of of whatever be a be a be a friend that you wish you had or you wish you have you know it's it's so important it's so important so you know friends how many of us have them friends ones we can depend on friends and then I have other friends too but yeah I have Scott he's my really good friend freaking love him like he's so good I have such good friends I believe friends are a grounding type of people that everyone deserves in their life but one thing that should always be clear is that nobody's perfect so a friend can't always be a good friend all the time.

SPEAKER_01 12:28

That doesn't mean that you should allow their shitty behavior but um it definitely means that you know you shouldn't just ruin or lose a good friend over small mistakes because nobody's perfect. What would a small mistake be um a small mistake could be maybe a a white lie about something or um you know just not going through with plans or maybe something is irritating about them that you just can't point out to them but uh I think that friends are everyone should have a good at least one good friend in their life but nobody's a hundred percent always gonna be a good friend. And what's it what's it what what about associates how many should you have those in your life associates like what what's an associate to an associate can be a coworker it could be um someone you meet in your environment like your home area like your neighbor or someone that you maybe might have business with um depending on what business I think an associate can be many things it can be a friend it can be an acquaintance it can be a neighbor it can be your co-worker etc but associates are different than homies right associates are different than homies I feel like the word associate is more professional in a sense and homie is like it's in the name like homie like a friend like a buddy well isn't a homie different than a friend no I wouldn't say so you don't think so maybe a homie would be someone that you specifically kick it with during certain circumstances but I think that they're kind of one and the same in a way one just has a different more casual name than a friend.

SPEAKER_00 14:23

Well friends well well friends are like friends like right I think they're a little different I think homies are like people you could just hang out with and whatever shoot the shits and then if you do lose their friendship or homieship then it's like whatever but friendships are like those are the ones that like you can not talk to and pick up and talk to them and be like hey like nothing ever happened you don't think so we're different generations so I'm asking you for that reason.

SPEAKER_01 14:47

Um I mean we don't really use the term homie guys Gen Z. We don't we're not like oh let me go get my homie we're just kind of like oh let's go get so and so name so or let's just go hang out with so and so what would you consider them being if they're like not your friend when I think of homie honestly I think of like shaggy and Scooby or like some like for some reason some activity like smoking or I don't know stuff like that. Stuff that is more how would you wear that friend you kick home or you have home and then your homies you just hang out outside the house that's why I think they're kind of one and the same but homie is a bit of an outdated word. I feel like it's used more for older people maybe like millennials specifically because you guys like kind of were around in the 90s and I feel like they use words like homie and homegirl and homeboy and I don't know what they got. I don't remember what do you think I feel like those that those words kind of came from like the nineties or like started in the nineties during like kind of get a lot during the first class I go jump jump uh uh over and run that vibe interesting Gen Z U R S V W S Wine Z you're that the you're Z then right the last generation I'm Gen Z is the last and best generation because we are making a change and we are the only last generation that grew up without the internet like when I mean internet I mean like AI and like when we were kids we weren't really in the internet we were kind of playing outside like normal people and now it's a lot different and um it's kinda sad because these people um they're not as smart as they were before. So they're kind of losing their brain activity. What people um I would say Gen Alpha they aren't as intelligent so Gen Alpha is from 2010 to like 2016 I think or something like that. And they are kind of retarded guys Yeah why are they retarded? Uh because schools are pushing technology on younger students instead of having them read books. They'll have them go online and read something there which is not firstly not good for health mentally or physically and it's ruining um their brains and they're not learning correctly so it's kinda sad. And they're being raised by technology and they're being raised by technology and parents and something I don't know about you guys but I'm definitely gonna have my kids do read instead of reading AI or that's what we really need to do is bring that tradition I was not cursive. Um but I was not good at cursive like I wouldn't remember I can't write cursive right now because I'm not good at it they just can you write I can't write cursive I'm not good at it. I think you were the last generation like the last year that they were teaching just a little bit because I remember they were teaching just a time that you guys are losing a lot of um teaching teaching skills and cognitive skills now which I mean it's kind of bad for our future because older people and even my generation will have to deal with the consequences of that like people that want to be nurses or doctors might get their degree by using artificial intelligence
