There may have been double-stuffed Oreos. honestly, I don't remember, but I mean, since then, we've enjoyed rainbow-filled Oreos, Latte-flavored Oreos, white chocolate fudge-covered Oreos, Mint-flavored Oreos, confetti-infused Oreos, and even some Pumpkin Spice Oreos. Well, now, Oreo stuffed Oreos. According to them, it's the most Oreo Oreo cookie ever. They have a larger dollop of cream filling And the filling has ground Oreo cookies Mixed in Yum yum No, I'm not a fan of a lot of the

The rainbow filled And the latte and the mint flavored Although, you know, this is going to come as a surprise I ate them But I'm a fan of just the regular Oreo And more importantly, the double-stuffed Oreos But now beginning at the end of this month those are going to be able to be purchased at the store

I will have that for you on this very show because I'll let you know if they're any good or not. Plus, I still want to do a radio show. in the metaverse. So I mean if Oreo or the most Oreo Oreo wants to sponsor, you know, Chewing the Fat Radio show in the metaverse Oreoverse, I'm here for you. Just email me,

Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat.

So our friends over at Lawn Starter have ranked the 2023's dirtiest cities in America. They compared 150 of the biggest U.S. cities across four categories. Pollution, living conditions, infrastructure, and consumer satisfaction. Yay! So, the dirtiest cities in America. I mean, we could do the countdown coming in at number 15, Los Angeles. Ontario, California is 14. Birmingham, Alabama, coming in at 3rd.

New York, New York, New York, coming in at the 12. Shreveport, Louisiana, coming in at 11th. Yonkers, New York, coming in at number 10. Oklahoma City, coming in at number nine. Fresno, coming in at number eight. San Antonio, Texas. Is there another San Antonio? Coming in at number seven.

Bakersfield, California is number six. Jersey City, number five, Detroit, Michigan, coming in at number four, San Bernardino, California, number three. Newark, New Jersey, coming in at number two, and coming in at number one, the number one, dirtiest city in America. Houston, Texas. Congratulations to Houston, Texas. Yay! You, you are this year's dirtiest city in America. So I was looking at some of the other rankings.

This show obviously originates from DFW, the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. Dallas is number 32. Fort Worth is 40th. And there's a couple Plano and Frisco are 78th and 91. That's all on DFW. then in my adopted home space of Tampa Bay, which Tampa Bay really is in a city, it's Tampa, St. Petersburg,

the surrounding areas, the greater Tampa Bay area. So Tampa is 38. St. Petersburg is 61st in the dirtiest city in America. Austin, Texas, comes in at 56. Salt Lake City, which I love Salt Lake City, comes in at 70. and San Francisco, you think, be a little bit higher on the list,

but it's coming in at 97th in the dirtiest city in America. So those are your lawn starter rankings for the dirtiest cities in America. And obviously, they break everything out. Again, you know, worst air quality, Riverside, California. Best air quality, Anchorage, Alaska.

And who doesn't want to live in Anchorage, Alaska? Oh, it's beautiful. I know. I know. Number two is Honolulu, Hawaii. So, man, those places were best air quality. Just as hop, skipping a jump from wherever you're at.

Most greenhouse gas emissions from large facilities per capita. Denver, Colorado is number one. Wow. Oklahoma City's on this list. Oklahoma City, man, there's. I thought that would be cleaner place, but apparently

not so much. Fewest, greenhouse gas emissions from large facilities per capita. Virginia Beach, Virginia. All right, well, good for you. Highest share of homes with signs of mice or rats. Highest share of homes with signs of mice or rats. Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, man, that East Coast, man, is living off the backs of rats. You can quote me on that.

Minneapolis, Minnesota, and St. Paul, Minneapolis, St. Paul. Now that Metroplex is another great rat city. Wow. But I mean, Boston, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. Woof. You'd be rat hunting there. Lowest share of homes with signs of mice or rats in the last 12 months. Okay. St. Louis, number one. Good for them. Columbus, Ohio, Louisville, Kentucky, Providence, Rhode Island.

Indianapolis, Indiana. Highest tonnage of weight. in landfills. Cincinnati, Murphy'sboro, Tennessee. Wow, Cincinnati at Murphy'sboro 1 and 2 coming in that. Lowest tonnage of waste

in landfills per 100,000 residents. Mobile, Alabama, and Tampa, Florida. Wow, congratulations to those two cities. Highest share of residents dissatisfied with time and city due to pollution. Bakersfield, California, California, San Bernardino, California, one and two.

Wow, four of the five, California, Bakersfield, San Bernardino, Fresno, Stockton, and then you've got to go to the East Coast in Newport, Newport, New Virginia. Wow, a little air pollution going on there. Lowest share of residents dissatisfied. Again, one, two, three, California cities, top three. Rancho Camonga, Santa Clarita,

and Salinas, California are the top three. McKinney, Texas. Nice, number five. That's a DFW, the greater DFW Metroplex. Lowest, they, people aren't, they're not satisfied with the pollution there. Wait, no, they're satisfied with the pollution because they're not dissatisfied with the time due to the pollution. So, anyway, congratulations to Houston, Texas, being rated number one, number one. Now, they were, you know, they put it all together.

Let's see, the pollution rank, Houston was third, living conditions fourth, infrastructure rank 12, consumer satisfaction rank 34th. So you put those all together with an overall score of 56.02 puts them in first place as the dirtiest city in America. Congratulations. Oh, and speaking of Boston, the number one city with the highest share of homes with signs of mice or rats this past year, congratulations, I love that the Massachusetts Department of Transportation snowplow naming contest is finally over. Dozen classes from all across the state crowned the winners. School students had a chance to submit names for 12 Department of Transportation plows. So congratulations to the winners.

They have Flurry Fighter, Luke Snow Walker, the Plower Ranger, Sherlock Snomes, Snowdrop. Oh, Snowdrop, that's so nice. Arctic Beast, sled Zeppelin,

Snow Day, no way. Cute. Blizzard, Wizard, Snow Big Deal, ah, snow time to lose, ha,

and Blizzard of Oz. Yes, Blizzard of Oz. So those are your winning snowplow names in Boston, Massachusetts. Hopefully they won't get bogged down with dead rats, but you never know. All right, let's go to the break room.

I need something cold to drink desperately. So I see where former President Donald Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts were restored yesterday afternoon after a two-year suspension, effectively ending his post-January 6th bans from the social media platforms. So, yay, right? If anyone cares. I mean, really, they keep dragging Donald Trump and fighting Donald Trump. I mean, he's not president. He hasn't been president. And do I care?

I mean, he's got his true social. He's going to be back on Twitter or is back on Twitter. He's getting Facebook and Instagram back. Does it really, I mean, is he the Donald Trump of old still? I would question that. I would question that he is the Donald Trump of old. I mean, he definitely believes that he is, but I don't think that he is.

That's just me, though. That's just me thinking out loud. You know what? He could start banging the drum again later today, tomorrow, this weekend, and everyone would say, he's the Donald Trump of old. So we shall see.

So we know that the Paul Pelosi story in San Francisco husband of Nancy Pelosi with being attacked and the attacker David DePap, is it DePap DePapi, DePapi, whatever his name is. You know, the story has been really muzzled.

I mean, they ran a reporter off for reporting what was the truth in San Francisco and we haven't had any footage from the body cams, from the police officers. Now they said originally on the first, press report from the district attorney. The district attorney at that time said that if it gets released in court, then you'll be able to see it.

Well, they did show some of the body cam footage in court, turned it, faced the judge. They didn't even show the audience that was there. And then they decided that, you know, they weren't going to release it. So this coalition of media mites, the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, the press Democrat, CNN, Fox News, CBS, ABC, NBC, and a KQED, which is an NPR member radio station in San Francisco. And they all filed a motion to get this dash cam or dash cam. dash cam

body cam footage released well a San Francisco judge has granted the motion to release the police body cam footage from the night former U.S. House Speaker

Nancy Pelosi's husband was attacked by an assailant with the hammer at their home. Now the motion was granted yesterday if you're listening live the 25th of January

well today is the 26th, but it was granted Wednesday that 25th. I'm confusing myself. Anyway, the judge said, yeah, well, you can look at the footage. Well, and there's no clear day of when those are going to be released. Now, I will say that I'm guessing that we're probably, well, it's not going to be as good as what we're hoping for. I do want to see it.

But I think that what we'll see is they're going to release the footage that they aired in court. they won't release all two hours or three hours or however long the body cam footage is on for no way we get all of that is it possible sure but i doubt it very much what we're going to they'll release the 30 seconds or the you know 40 seconds that they aired in court and the rest of it they'll say no it wasn't aired in court uh the ruling was only what was aired in court and that's what you get So I'm sure that I would bet a lot of money that that's what's going to happen. But at least we get to see some of it, but we don't know when.

So I guess congratulations are in order to Justin Bieber. It's being reported that he sold his share of the rights to his music to Hypnosis Songs Capital. And they're saying it was sold for, you know, he took $200 million for it. I would, man, I would have bet he would be worth more than that. but okay. So the firm now owns the pop star steak and some of his biggest hits. I mean, he's one of the best-selling artists

in the 21st century. I mean, it's a huge catalog. So the company is the billion-dollar venture between Blackstone and Hypnosis Song Management and they got his 290 song back catalog. Wow. So that includes all of his music released before December 31st, 2021. So nobody has disclosed the terms of the deal.

It's just being reported that it was worth around $200 million. I, man, I can't believe. They gave Springsteen like $500 million for his life's work. Justin's got to be worth $400 million, right? Maybe not. I don't know. Maybe now. He's still creating too.

So, you know, he's still. got stuff that he's going to be making. And if he can, I mean, he's suffered from that one thing from the COVID vaccine, right? So what did he have? It wasn't Bell's palsy, Ramsey Hunt syndrome. So I guess he's fine now, we'll say. I mean, he's taken the stage, I guess, since his facial paralysis thing with Ramsey Hunt. So we'll see.

But anyway, congratulations, Justin, for your new deal and bringing him. home a couple hundred million dollars for you and the you and the wife. So we know that the Grammys are just around the corner. Yay! Sunday, February 5th on a CBS Television Network and they'll be streaming live and on demand on Paramount Plus.

Plus we'll get the pre-telecast live from Microsoft Theater. It's going to be streamed live on live.orgami.com which the whole thing should just be streamed there and we shouldn't have to go to a network but okay so we're going to see performances from bad bunny mary j blige brandy carlisle luke combs steve lacey lizzo kim patrice and sam smith and you can catch them all on the grammy award streamed uh where i just told you you could

see him so yay uh well that's something to look forward to on february 5th Then on February 9th, we get the big NFL honors announcement. So there's been, you know, the people who are nominated for awards, like, you know, comeback player of the year, offensive coordinator of the year, coach of the year. We have, as far as MVP of the league, Jalen Hertz, Justin Jefferson, and Patrick Mahomes, are finalists for the MVP and offensive player of the year awards. Buffalo Bill's quarterback Josh Allen and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback, Joe Burrow, are also finalists for the MVP, but not the offensive player of the year awards.

Really kind of weird. Joe Burrow should win that. But, you know, Jalen Hurd, they're all deserving. They all have great seasons. We'll see. I mean, if Patrick loses to Burrow and, And Jalen loses to Purdy in San Francisco. Purdy will win the rookie of the year,

and Burrell will get the MVP. But that's just me thinking out loud, because I don't think San Francisco is going to beat the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend. I just don't see it happening. But we'll see the defensive player of the year. I mean, you've got Nick Mosa, Micah Parsons, Chris Jones. I mean, those guys all had tremendous seasons this year in the NFL.

So congratulations to all of them, really. But good luck for getting those awards. And we can be able to, you know, look forward to seeing who wins on February 9th. So busy week, February 5th. Man, you got the Grammys and then the 9th. You got the NFL awards. And then we'll have the Super Bowl. That's something to look forward to.

So a new study from the Secret Services National Threat Assessment Center was released. It examined 173 public attacks occurring between January 2016 and December 2020 and found patterns that repeated from Yuvaldi to the back-to-back shootings in California this past weekend. Some of the commonalities they claim from the Secret Services National Threat Assessment Center almost all attackers acted alone and were men. Though attackers ranged in age from 14 to 87, the average age skewed younger at 34. Nearly 73% of the attacks involved firearms,

and most of those were fatal. The remaining attacks that didn't involve firearms were mostly non-fatal. Nearly all attackers experienced a significant stressor, such as a loved one dying, in the five years prior to the attack, and 77% of them experienced one within a year. Half of the incidents were motivated by perceived wrongs in the workplace or at home.

The killing of seven people in Half Moon Bay, California on Monday, was described by officials as an act of workplace violence. The study says that nearly half of the attackers had history of perpetuating misogyny and or domestic violence, and that those behaviors deserved increased attention from law enforcement. Violent online posting and chatting can also signal an individual may commit an attack. For example, the shooter in Yuvaldi threatened women online and shared graphically misogynistic content. How do you get?

I won't question it. I'm just telling you what the study is. Nearly two-thirds of attackers said or did things objectively concerning. That they should have. have been met with an immediate response. Many of these were even reported to law enforcement, employers, and others prior to the mass attack, but were not acted upon.

Because no one knows to do. Anyway, I was supposed to stop. The report's big takeaway. Recognizing shared patterns among past mass attacks early could help prevent future tragedies. How much did that cost? A new study from the Secret Services National Threat Assessment Center with 173 public attacks

looked at. And their big takeaway is recognizing shared patterns among past mass attacks early, could help prevent future tragedies. Uh, you think? I just

amazing. And what does that mean? That we need to recognize these shared patterns. Okay, so what do we do once we recognize it? Do we just because we recognize a pattern, we lock them up,

and we take all guns away from all people. And, I mean, that's where we're at. So just know that big report, just recognize shared patterns. And that will help prevent future tragedies. Yeah, I hope it does. I hope it does. I hope it does.

I don't know how much money we spent on that study, but, foo. And good news. Ukraine is getting new tank. Both the U.S. and Germany agreed yesterday to send tanks to Ukraine as it fends off the Russian invasion. Something Ukraine has said it needs to win the war. Ukraine has said it needs a lot of things to win the war. The U.S. will send 31 M1 Abrams tank, while Germany will provide 14 Leopard A6 models. Western allies have been arming Ukraine since the war began.

Yeah, no kidding. There is hesitation over. whether sending the tanks would be considered an escalation. I think it does. President Biden stressed, this is important that President Biden stressed this, it's not an offensive threat to Russia. Oh, okay, it is not an offensive threat to Russia.

Russia certainly thinks it is. It's certainly taking the opportunity for peace talks farther away from the table, I'll tell you that. But, you know, in the words, of our president, President Joseph Robinette Biden, this move to send the tanks to Ukraine

is not an offensive threat to Russia. Oh, okay then. All right, then. That's what you said. That's what it is. So we know that the FDA released a proposal to streamline

the immunization schedule for COVID-19 that would treat the jab like your annual flu vaccine. I cannot tell you how I hate the term the jab. I don't know why. It just bugs me so much to say the jab. I don't know. I know it's just me.

I just hate calling it the jab. I don't know the vaccine shot. I don't know the COVID shot. Something else. I just don't like calling it the jab. Anyway, it's just me. As with the flu, a group of experts would meet yearly to determine which variants should be targeted

and once a year shot would be made available to the public. The agency is mulling the shift at a moment when only 15% of Americans who are eligible for the most recent COVID booster have gotten one. Yeah, well, that's because maybe we're a little nervous and see that perhaps the COVID-19 vaccine jab isn't quite like the flu shot. that we've been getting.

The flu shot actually told us, hey, you know, you still may get the flu, but you won't be as sick. Well, that's what you kind of told us what's evolved from the COVID vaccine jab. And, but it really isn't true, is that we're actually seeing the side effects in, we're seeing it ourselves.

And you're just denying it that it's happening, but we're seeing it. And I see where Project Veritas just released, a new video, exposing a Pfizer executive, this Jordan Tristan Walker, who claims that his company, you know, Pfizer, is exploring a way to mutate COVID to preempt the development of future vaccines. Oh, that's special. That's awesome. That's nice of them.

Now, it isn't gain of function research that's happening. It's called directed evolution. so shut up with your gain of function conspiracy theories okay we don't do that kind of work anymore that's not we don't do gain of function research we call it directed evolution so that's what you get that sounds even better to be honest with you let's go back to gain of function i like the way that sounded. Directed evolution? Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the way that sounds.

And pretty sure I'm not a fan of what it actually is. So let's put a pause on that, shall we? And I know. They'll say that this is, you're taking this out of context. We're working on it so that we can get out in front of the new mutations so that we're trying to find ways to stop it. But in this Veritas video, He says, we're exploring, why don't we just mutate it, COVID, ourselves,

so we could create a preemptive new vaccine. So now we're not only trying to get out in front of the variants, we're going to go ahead and try to develop a variant so that we can, I guess, spread the variant so that we can sell the vaccine. Are we hoping that if we create a variant and then a vaccine, we could give the variant out and then along with the variant and the vaccine, you would be immune to the other variants?

I mean, I don't know. I don't know the answer to that question. I am not a Pfizer scientist, but I just, how about directed evolution? We just kind of put a pause on that, okay? I mean, they're not going to, but, you know, we can ask them to, that's for sure. Have you seen, have you started watching?

the last of us yet on HBO Watch, there's two episodes out I think it comes out every Sunday So we're coming up on the third episode This weekend But I watched the very first episode last night Pretty good Pretty darn good

I, there's a couple things in it That I question, like, why did we do that? And it's a game, you know, it's based on a game That I know my son has and has played He was watching it with me last night I've never won this game. I got it and then I had to work. And so I just haven't beat it yet.

Some of the, I like the way it's shot. I like the cinematography. The cinematography, therefore, some of the shots are like, look like a game, which is pretty cool.

You know, Pedro Pascal is in it. And there were a couple things that happened that I question, like, wait, what's going on? So if you had the game, you knew what was happening.

But if you didn't have the game, then you kind of went what we're we're here now so I think we need to you know rethink and maybe they'll get to it in the second and you know the second episode you know lay the groundwork for some of it but I enjoyed it I enjoyed it and it is you know about a fungus among us and so I'm sure that nothing like what they have in the last of us is happening from and their directed evolution that's happening. Absolutely has nothing to do with that.

Duh. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo? Great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements. What you win is yours to keep.

Grooving. Hey, I won! Feel the fun. The thing will begin when passenger Fisher is done celebrating. 19 plus Ontario only. responsibly concerned by your gambling or that if someone close to you, call 18665331-6-0 or visit comics, Ontario.ca. So we do do, you know, I love to, we do do, we do do do, he's a do-do-do.

We do do talk about houses of the hoity-to-to-dy often on the show, and I've got some great houses of the hoity-to-y to tell you about in the future. But this particular home is for sale in Tennessee listed for $1.5 million. dollars. Now the reason that I'm telling you about this particular house because the photo used on Zillow to say, hey, this is the house that we're looking to sell for, I don't know, $1.5 million is literally the house on fire. It gives a whole new meaning to fire sale. So it's already, under contract, somebody has already bought it. Incredible.

So I guess he's ready for the restitution or the restoration and restitution. The restoration process. So maybe they'll put it online and just let you watch the restoration of it. But it sits on five acres of land in Franklin, Tennessee. It includes a bunch of staircases, grand staircases, an outdoor kitchen, detached guest house. which I guess is where the family will live while they're fixing up the house. And apparently they had a house when it was on fire in September.

And according to reports before the fire, it sold for $10 million. So it took quite a hit, although they probably got insurance money for it. So the $1.5 million is just walking around money. So that's pretty good. I mean, if you think about the old Robin Williams movie, the world according to Garp from, I don't know, I don't know when the movie was out in the 80s, I think. But they're looking at a house to buy

and a plane crashes into it. And he immediately says, we'll take it. It's been pre-disastered. The odds of having another plane hit that house are astronomical. So, I mean, you could go with that with your house in Tennessee. The odds of another huge fire are, I don't, are they astronomical?

Sure, let's go with that. Would you buy the house if you looked at the Zillow picture and it was the house that was on fire? You know, I might. I might actually, but you never know. It just seems like a new version of fire sale. All right, I've got to talk to you about a coloring book that I had sent to me from Christopher Brady, the author of this coloring book. Chris is an old friend of Chewing the Fat,

an old friend of The Blaze, an old friend of Glenn Beck. He's been around for a long time. I love Chris Brady. And he has developed a new coloring book. It's titled Joe Biden hides classified documents. And it's from Bidencoloringbooks.com. And it says volume one on it.

So there could be more to come. He's hidden classified documents all over America. can you find them all? And each page opens up to a cute little story about Joe Biden and great moments and there's, you can color the picture and you can try to find where the top secret documents are hidden in each picture.

It's a fun little game for your kids and you to play. Wait, here's this picture here. where's the top secret document though I don't see the the top secret document in this particular picture I thought it was in every one oh wait a minute

is it ever where's the oh you just have to find it in some of them okay all right fine be that way be that way but they're awesome pictures of Joe Biden doing the things that Joe Biden does you know saying that

you know he's looking ice cream There's one here great moments in Joe Biden history where he comes running out of the house with his shotgun If you want to keep someone away from your house just fire the shotgun through the door That's his interview with field and stream from 2013 things Joe Biden has said And it's awesome this actually would be fun I can't wait for my daughter to the artist daughter to actually get her Drawing pencils out and draw this or I might give this to to my wife's grandchildren and let them color it up to. Now that's what I'm going to do maybe.

Maya has enough artwork to do. She doesn't need to be coloring dufus Joe Biden. So I'll give it to my wife's grandkids and they can color it up and do a fine job on it. But if you'd like to have one to give away or to use yourself, you can go to

Bidencoloringbooks.com. Bidencoloringbooks.com. And I'll put the link in the description for the show. Pretty incredible news, actually, coming out of Fort Worth, Texas. Twin sisters who were conjoined at the chest and stomach have undergone successful surgery to separate. That doesn't happen hardly at all, ever. Amazing.

So they were born in Fort Worth. They're from Saginaw, Texas, which is, you know, my hometown is Saginaw, Michigan. I was born in Saginaw, Michigan. But Saginaw, Texas, and they learned, you know, the ultrasound that they were. expecting conjoined to twins so they were born in Fort Worth through a C-section and then they were transferred to Cook Children's neonatal intensive care unit and they stayed there until the separation surgery so only I mean only a small handful of conjoined twins ever survive past birth which is you know a feat in and of itself so to stay alive and viable after birth there's

it's a very, very rare situation. So, conjoined twins occur once in every 50 to 60,000 births. Approximately 70% of conjoined twins are female. Wow. And according to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, they've completed more than two dozen separation surgeries. That's pretty amazing. So these two girls were, uh,

I was going to say, they were taken apart, okay? They'll be making jokes and smiling about the conjoined people being ripped apart, or what's it going to look like if they weren't, you know, taken apart? How long do they live? How long do they live if you just leave them be? Can they, can they live after you just leave them being? They're just two beautiful little girls, and you see them, you know, conjoined that's not me. It's just sad.

And thankfully, they, I mean, they completely took off the surgery. Took 11 hours involved separating the girls' liver as well as their skin and fascia. And the team was divided into two teams to take care of the two girls. Amy Lynn's team wearing green hats and Jamie Lynn's team wearing purple hats during the surgery. And apparently the operating room erupted in a quick cheer when the girls were successfully separated during the operation. So that's awesome. You say you get out of doctor mode

for just a couple of seconds because the whole room realized what happened. Yeah, then you got to get back to it because you got to get these girls and save them back to life. They say the one girl, Jamie Lynn, is the smoky one. And Amy Lynn is the more laid-back sister.

So congratulations to Cook Children's for doing this operation. And congratulations to these parents for having two beautiful girls that are no longer conjoined. And we call them conjoined now, right? They're not Siamese twins or anything like that anymore. We don't call them that.

They're just conjoined twins, right? We don't. Don't look at me like that. I'm asking a question. You know, they used to be that they were Siamese twins. And now, you know, I know I'm old school, so we don't call them. They don't call them that anymore.

They're conjoined twins, okay? Just remember that. Jeez, look at me like that. All right, so I'm going to leave you with the joke of the day for you. Just going to get out of here. Let's leave you with a joke of the day from an email from Eric. Eric emailed chewing the fat at the blaze.com with, he said, hey, here's a joke of the day. Okay, all right, I'll use it.

Thank you, Eric. I lost my job at the bank on my first day. A woman asked me to check her balance, so I pushed her over. So he lost his job at the bank on his first day working there because a woman asked him to check her balance. And he did. He pushed her over. So stupid.
