I hate gift giving and receiving receiving gifts is so weird. What do you say? Thank you?
This is coffee convos with Kale Lowry and Lindsay Chrisley. I really want you to be in your feels Kale
That does not interest me whatsoever. I feel very attacked by you a spirited discussion about motherhood friendship
Family and life in the public eye. I'm just not with the fakery anymore. There's a fakery bakery around here
Here's Kale and Lindsay
It's a coffee combos bonus
Good morning. Good morning. I have my prime and I have my coffee and then I also have a water
I ran out of boss, but I have this water. So we're in it right now. We're in it
You kind of look like Valentine's inspired. That's what I was going for and I don't at all
I look like a Grinch. I look like a Scrooge, but my shirt at least says raise them kind
That's like Valentine's Day theme. We're raising kind kids. We want them to be gentlemen
We want them to be, you know, sweet and appreciative of their partners when they're adults
This shirt is more of like a coral color. I know it's coming on the screen as like orange
But it's it's like a coral color and this let me tell you the best thing that I've bought lately is this Dior lip oil
This is a lip oil. Okay, stop because I literally just talked to the girl that did my makeup
Probably five days ago and I said I need recommendations for lip oils because I've just you know become like this master
Oiler and I'm like I need to try this whole trend of doing a lip oil
And so she sent me she was like the do Dior lip oil is the best one
But she said there's also a dupe for it. And so she sent me the dupe
So I actually have to order both of those today. I will send you the link for the dupe too. It's not it's not sticky at all
Like it's like a nice creamy, but like lightweight. It doesn't feel super sticky tacky. I don't like when I'm talking
It's not like sticking and I just I fucking you know what I'm talking about
Yeah, it's it's not doing any of that. So I am drinking throughout this episode. So if it comes off, it's not the lip oil
It's literally me because I have three drinks right here
But I love it. It's so I got the clear one, but the the
Applicator is pink. So I think that applicator is what adds like a little bit of a tin, which I'm okay with
See, I am a little weird about tints. Okay. Okay. Well, they don't they have ones without tin
Okay, so yeah, I'll have to get the one without the tent because if I'm just like doing like an oil day or like a skin care day
I don't like any
Color whatsoever. It's like give me a good like
Clear see look, but no color at all. I just got the tart
Multi-purpose oil, I don't know if you've heard of it
But you can literally put it on your body on in your moisturizer in your hair
It's literally for anywhere and it's so good and it's vegan. It's like this little purple bottle
I'll also send you a link for that so good. No, I don't want a link for that because a
100% Argan oil is
Where it's at and you can use that anywhere and Kristen gave me a little
Esthetician lesson on it. It's non-commodogenic or something like that. So what the fuck is that break?
It's like not gonna break you out or anything like that
So it's safe to if you wanted to put it on your face you can put it on your body
You can put it on your hair. What did you say? It's not what non-commodogenic. I think that's how you say it
Kristen, how do you what is it non?
Non-commodogenic interesting. I love that. Okay, so I need a link for that Lindsay
Yeah, so you can literally just order that crap right off of the Amazon and the one that I found is nice because
You know like when you're in the shower and you're trying to do like the little dropper to like oil yourself
This one has a pump so you can just like pump it like
Shampoo or conditioner love it. So yes, I will send you a link for that also
While you're sitting there drinking your prime energy drink, let me tell you what happened to me
Okay, so I got that same prime energy drink
It's so good went to unbox it yesterday and I was like, oh this box got wet because it's been raining. Whatever
No, ma'am. Um
It was all empty. They spilled and the lids those those black lids on the top were all busted off
Oh, how does that happen? Tell me that you tagged Logan Paul right now. Tell me that you tagged
KSI and Logan Paul because I would have and I would have wanted a direct message from them themselves
explaining this I was like
Wait, I was like really looking forward to trying this but evidently that's not the best flavor
This is the best fucking that's the one I got. This is strawberry water. I have all the flavors
and I
think I told the story the other day
I don't know what who I was talking to or where it was, but I don't know how they got my address
I never gave it to them and this is my new house when I moved in
When I hadn't even moved in yet and I had a prime box on my porch
And I was like, what in the fuck like I just moved here like this is so crazy
So I don't know who gave it to them
But like I'm thankful every day because they send this to me and this is by far my favorite flavor
Wait, let me tell you I used to get so freaked out when I first
First started influencing if that's what you want to call it
Because I would get packages and I'm like I never gave this person my address. So how do they know?
Like to these companies just check tax records like I have no idea and if they are doing that then I'm officially scared
I think that there is
Don't quote me on this and I don't want anyone else to let well, maybe I shouldn't else just fucking say it
I'm pretty sure there's like a like a website that you can go to that has like
Addresses and stuff for influencers like other influencers can go
so if you have like a p.o. Box or
Because I don't know why but I think that's how because I don't know who would have given prime my address
Very interesting. Wait wall
Before we like really get started. I need to ask you if you are a Valentine's person
Are you like dressing the whole part even if you're doing nothing?
Like when you wake up in the morning on Valentine's Day, are you immediately putting on red or pink and like being with the vibes?
Absolutely not. Absolutely the fuck not. I really only do something for my kids
I don't remember the last time I did like a Valentine's Valentine's like I will get my kids cards candies stuff like that
Maybe like a little gift like a phone case or something
But no, I'm not I'm not dressing up. No, that's not that's not a thing for me
when I tell you Valentine's used to be so exciting whenever you were a kid and
You wanted to get like the best Valentine's because you don't want someone else to have like better ones than you
And I specifically remember going through like my class list and picking out specific Valentine's for people
Like I was very intentional with it. I
You know didn't want to give a maybe if it was like cat Valentine's and it's like you're perfect
I didn't want to give that to like my enemy
And so I needed to make sure that they were getting like an appropriate
Car that would really like define how I felt about them
Jackson's nothing like that whatsoever. I fill out his Valentine's and he literally doesn't care
Um, the only thing he cares about is the candy gram things that come through the school
Does your kid's school do that? I don't know. I can't remember if they do the candy grams. I know that the
Previously Luxe's classrooms have said like don't put a name for who it's to
Only put who it's from because they want to just go like drop them in and I feel like that just takes away like the
Personability if that's like a word of the holiday. It's person of a bummer. I think personable
I said personable
Personability
Yeah, the personal the personable aspect of it and like Luxe wanted to fill them out. I let him
I let him just put everybody's names. I don't care and we decorate a little box
But no, I don't think that we've done the candy grams. So it's basically like a thing that PTA does
I'm sure like other schools do it, but it's a dollar having it. Yeah
And like you get like a sucker or something like that and you can just send it to teachers
You can send it to your kid
This year we just well in past years
But now I just have to be more intentional about it because I have to send a damn paper to Will's house
So that he can fill out his and then I was like while your parents are here this weekend have them fill out theirs
Because Jackson is like very smart if he sees like writing
He knows it's my writing or he knows it's Will's writing
So I wanted them to write it so it was you know, very special to him
Right
So I know that I like things that were very special to me growing up and it's just so funny
That you say that things have changed so much and they don't want like to it's always from
That's not how we were raised and that has been something that has changed over time
With our kids generation, I agree. It's just like less meaningful almost
It's like like shuffle around everybody like drop one in someone's box like it actually
I just don't do it. Just don't do it. You know, I know and then I went and then I went and bought Jackson like this little
Valentine's box and it looks like a little mailbox thing
Has a little slit where like people can put like their Valentine's down in it. That's cute
And he literally tells me yesterday. He's like, well, I can't have that. Why and I'm like, what are you talking about?
Like you've had one of these before like why is that thing? And he said no, like we have to decorate these
white
Like lunch bags or whatever and then everybody has the same one they decorate it and then they drop it in there
So I don't know if that's like an inclusion thing where everybody has like the same one
Nobody has anything different or something. I have no idea the real world though. So I felt sad because I was like, you know what?
I dedicated this time to like go get this stuff like do all this stuff in advance make these Valentine's special for all these kids
And now my kid can't even take this thing to school. Also
I did a Valentine's box for Jackson. I always do it and I
put like a book a
Fortnight card in there. There's a stuffed animal. There's candy
Normally I'll do like
Slippers or something like that something like, you know, cutie and I always send him to school and
Something read and last year he was like, there's just like zero reason that I
Need to be fancied up for this day. Oh
That's so sad
But it's just I don't know like he likes celebrating at home, but doesn't not care about it at school at all and just so crazy to me
Because it was like one of my favorite days of the year. Like I so very looked like was looking forward to Valentine's Day
We always did in school Valentine's crosswords, you know, like the
the little things that have the
Legends that have like the different colors of like
Valentine's colors and the new, you know color and the little
Heart or whatever, you know, it's like number-coded or whatever odd or even, you know, like those papers
They don't do that anymore every I feel like when I was in school even all the way up until like middle school
everything was so
Valentine's Day themed like down to the worksheets whatever the lesson plans were like it was like cute. It was cutesy
We all decorated our own boxes. I
Did we did a shoebox with wallpaper around it so that wouldn't have like Nike on it
And you put like a bunch of stickers and stuff on it and it actually came out really cute
That was the product every month. They send home
They send Luxe home with a project and the February project of the month was the Valentine's Day box
And so I hope they get to do something cute and he like I said, he put his name on everything their names on everything so
But I won't one of the girls in his class. I'm not gonna say names. He's like, can you write her name mom?
That's so funny. No, I used to you. She told me I had a booger in my nose
Okay, well, do you remember also back when we were in school that?
If you sent birthday invitations through the school
The only way you could send them through the school is if everybody was included
So like you couldn't just send birthday invitations to school for like select people. Do you remember this?
No, so that is a thing and I'm sure other people are gonna tell me that they do remember this so I never sent
birthday party invitations to school because
You just like don't invite the whole class
But I do think that that was way more common back when we were growing up
Then kids today like you would have like skating rink parties or like bowling alley party and like your whole class came and whatever
that's just
Not a thing anymore. And I just think about how different
Everything is then when we were growing up. We also celebrated Christmas like in school. Yeah, that I do remember that I very much remember
Celebrating Christmas and Thanksgiving in school and St. Patrick's Day. So
Those were definitely things that we celebrated. I think did we talk about on this podcast?
The birthday party thing and like how you handle other kids going. No, what?
Kristen. Okay, so I want to update on that. Oh, yes, we did talk about that. We did talk about that. Yes
When you just brought up the birthday party thing
I don't know if these specific invitations that Lux got went to everybody in the class or not
but I opened up his school folder and he had an invitation to a birthday party and
I appreciated it because it was very much on the invitation. It said
You know Lux is invited to so-and-so's birthday
time in place and then it said admission included for Lux Lowry and then it said
Any additional kid at your own at your own cost or your own
Whatever and then it said like
Please RSVP by this date. No exceptions if you don't RSVP like she put all the information on there
And I actually it I think some people would have taken it as like this is like a really bitchy thing to do
But I thought I really appreciated it cuz I was like this lays out exactly what the expectations are and if you don't RSVP
Don't even show up
And if you're bringing other kids, you just have to pay for them, you know, I think that that's fair
Given the fact that I don't remember actually when I was growing up
I don't remember my brother ever going to a birthday party that I was attending ever like right was not a thing
I also think it's more common today for parents to stay at birthday parties with their kids
Then when we were growing up because it was pretty like
Standard that was just like a drop-off situation and then a pickup situation. Yeah, I don't remember my mom staying at birthday
Part I don't remember going to a lot of birthday parties actually
But when I think the three that I remember which I can specifically name who they were for and what it was
My mom didn't stay at them. Yeah, like that was not a thing back then
But now I do think that it's more common and I don't know if it's just because
we are more aware of things that happen or
If I don't know like I don't know why it's like that
But with parents saying I think that that's why you have the overlap with other children
Because the parents have the other kids, right?
You know and it is hard because I've done a couple of birthday parties that like sky zones and stuff
And the packages come with a certain amount of people who can jump
So if you're bringing
Other children and they weren't invited to the party and they're taking up
You end up paying so much more money
So I think that's fair like it's not they can't come and this is like an open free place for them to be able to come and jump
or whatever but
Pay for those kids who are not invited to the party
Yeah, and also pay for them to eat separately because it's not fair for them to be
included in like the birthday child
Like you whether it's pizza and the cake and whatever it is like that's not fair for the additional kids that weren't really invited to
Do that so a hundred percent agree on that

So we're gonna play a game of would you rather
Okay, but I just wanted to say before we do that
Everyone can find us on tiktok now. I don't know that we've talked a ton about that
You are our tiktok queen not me
So
They can stitch do at our tiktoks. We will repost them post
You can also remix our reels on Instagram
Um and do the same so I need to get better about tiktok keel literally harasses me
On a weekly basis about this and I just need to like dedicate time to learn how to do it
I'm not good at like learning new things and being open to
change
As much as I love being a consumer of tiktok
I'm like afraid to learn how to do it and I don't know if it's fear that I'm gonna become so invested that I'm
Just gonna be tiktoking and no one will be able to get in touch with me
Or if it's just like the fear of not knowing what I'm doing
Well Kristen texted me last night and I was scrolling on tiktok for like 20 minutes
And I didn't even get back to her text message until like 20 minutes later because I was scrolling on tiktok
So you're once you're a consumer of tiktok. It's really hard to get off, but I love tiktok. Um, I don't have a niche though
That's like the one thing I will say is that I've kind of treated tiktok like an Instagram sort of
because I a
Lot of tiktokers have a niche like they are very specific to that thing like if you do
Like the mommy and me or the daddy and son ones or you do like very cleaning tiktoks or restocking tiktoks
I'm not in any of that. I do kind of a little of everything
And I think that's part of the reason why I haven't grown as much as I thought I would
Because I'm just not like people aren't following me for one specific thing
Like it's just kind of a fucking free for all but they're just following you
Like as if they were following you on Instagram for like, yeah, whatever bullshit you're posting on correct a random
Correct. Yes. I need to come up with like what I can do on tiktok that
People would want to see I mean I can think of a couple of things
But I don't know that I could stay consistent with it because it's like how do people come up with like this con
it's amazing to me, but like
How people come up with this content of like, okay? Well if I am showing you how I'm organizing my closet or organizing my bathroom
Like bitch, I'm not going back and doing that for a long time. So like that
Once that video is done, like that's done. Yeah, so that's why like when I do tiktoks
First of all, I have a notes app
I have the notes up on my phone and when I get an idea for a tiktok where I see a trend that I want to do
I'll type it in my notes app so that I can go back and do it and then if I'm when I'm here and makeup ready one day
Sometimes I do it without makeup, but whatever
I'll leave it in my drafts to post and then like I'll have like right now
I think I have like ten drafts and then they're ready to go for I have eleven drafts right now
Um, and then these are the ones that are like post so like I do film the content as I feel like it
And then I can post it whenever you know what I mean? I love that for you
I'm gonna I'm gonna get back to you guys on my participation on tiktok
So hold me accountable and I'll do it
I just never take the time like by the time it gets to the weekend
I'm like, I need to like binge grace and Frankie and like I need to
Do you love it? Yeah, I watched it a while ago. Oh my god. I love it so much also
There's a new show that I'm gonna start watching tonight. It's called stolen youth on Hulu. Did you see the preview for it?
Gonna start watching that so I'll keep you guys updated on that, but here we go
Would you rather be gifted candy or gifted flowers?
No, they have to come together. There's no separating these two
You're giving me candy and flowers without a doubt, but like what kind of flowers?
My favorite flowers are my favorite flowers are peonies, but I don't think that anyone has ever actually given me peonies
and then candy I'm always accepting chocolate at all times so
Doesn't matter what kind
Well, I don't like nugget or new get I don't like that
So like if the candy has that I don't want it like Milky Way through musketeers. That's a no
But anything with chocolate caramel?
Twix Reese's
Kit Kat all free game. So I am
Probably boosier than you, but we knew this in advance
Um, if I had to choose candy or flowers, I'm absolutely choosing the flowers over the candy
Because I just don't see like what type of emotional meaning would be
Behind a box of chocolates. Okay, that's that's where I'm going with that
Also would prefer both and when we say candy, I'm talking about like edible arrangement. So
don't be a cheapo
Chocolate covered strawberries and specifically they need to be white chocolate covered strawberries
I'm not into the chocolate covered strawberries thing. Like that's just not my vibe
I don't like any other chocolate covered fruit. So you know how you can get
They'll have I don't know like
Chocolate covered pineapple, but no, whatever. I do not like that at nothing about that
Appeals to me chocolate covered strawberries white chocolate covered strawberries. Absolutely
That's also something that I used to do with Jackson on Valentine's Day when Will and I were married
We would you know, like melt white chocolate and do them
It's much cheaper to do them at home than to order them
And it's also better at home than to order them unless you're eating them
Like on that day when you get them from wherever they're being delivered because once that stuff gets soggy
It's just like disgusting. It's not good, but that's gonna be where I'm gonna go with that and also I love roses
I love hydrangeas and
Gonna be a little bit morbid here
I hate lilies and I think it's because they remind me of funerals
I need to look up lilies because like I know what a lily is but I need to see I think it's called like peace lilies or something
Like that they smell like a funeral home. Like if you've ever smelled one it literally smells like
Death. Oh, they do look that that is very funeral vibes. I'm getting yeah vibes for sure
Yeah, and I think a lot of times when you get an arrangement
There will be like some filler lilies in there
Mm-hmm, and I'm just like not a fan like I throw out the lilies because I
Me coming home and feeling like I'm walking in to
View a casket is just like not a vibe for another thing. So I know not at all
Okay, second one receive a bunch of meaningless gifts or one thoughtful gift one thoughtful gift
Well, it depends like are these bunch of meaningless gifts
Something that I'm gonna use because if we're talking like Ugg slippers a pair of pajamas
It's like a gift that keeps giving year-round and when it says meaningless. I'm thinking like
Um filler like like dollar store like filler stuff. Like that's what I'm thinking when it says meaningful meaningless
No, I think like meaningless is like they didn't think of you when they gave you the gift
So it's not like specific to something that like you would care about it
Just like I picked up something to like have something but it actually means nothing. Oh, well, I'll take slippers a robe
I'll take, you know, a lippy like the lip oil like little things like that. I'm picking that over the one meaningful gift
And if you put it, yeah, if you put it in that context, I I'm definitely picking that so I'm picking like
You know doesn't have to be brand-ug, but like there are some cute Uggs out there right now that I don't have, you know
So like here's some ideas for you. Oh, if anyone here's some ideas
Um also a good pair of PJs
Absolutely stars above from Target the short set with like the the button down top with like the short sleeve
Absolutely game changer. Yes, ma'am
We'll take those we'll take like a lip oil like you said something like that. Love that
The one thoughtful gift like what what is it? Is it?
We're going somewhere for two days away to a tropical location because yes, I'm picking that over Ugg slippers. Oh
See we're on two different wavelengths right now. I'm thinking like a piece of jewelry
Maybe like a Pandora bracelet charm. I'm thinking when it says one meaningful gift. That's what I'm talking about
but
Someone did gift me last Christmas a trip to
The bungalow resort in Key Largo
So like to me that was like a meaning like one meaningful gift for two days. You know what I mean, okay?
No, I'm thinking like the
You know, I also okay. I do need to say this. I prefer
An experience over a tangible like holding a gift a hundred percent 100 percent
It's kind of like the dinner or like an adventurous date kind of thing
I would rather go like on a hike or go
You know see a show of some sort then like go to dinner on a date
It's like that right like I want to go do an experience versus just like an item
1000 percent which next question
Romantic dinner out or be cooked for at home. I'm picking the home-cooked meal and I'm saying this because
Previously if you would have asked me this probably a couple months ago. I probably would have picked the dinner out
However, this new thing that we're doing where we have this little calendar
I'll take a picture of it and post it where we put the menu of the week
And then we have one takeout day. I have not wanted fast food
Like I had to order the other day when I did something for work at the office
And I had to order food and I was so pissed off because I did not want
Restaurant or fast food like I just didn't I wanted to go home and I wanted a meal like a home-cooked meal
Okay, so I'm going to second the home-cooked meal if he can cook
Yes, and I'm also not helping probably
Oh, I'm not gonna clean up either. I might clean up because I can clean
Yeah, definitely cook a meal for me at home
College me though
It was like and I don't know if anybody else experienced this in college
but it was always like you would get with your girlfriends and you would talk about like the it places to go for
Valentine's that like did like specific Valentine's celebrate themed celebrations and
Will and I would go to all of these nice restaurants
But what happened was we'd go to these nice restaurants and I would still be starting when we left then we would be peeling through
Like McDonald's Taco Bell
You know, whatever and anyone knows like if you go to a super nice restaurant
You're still probably hungry when you leave and those portions are this big like first of all, that's an appetizer
I don't even think that's an appetizer. Yeah, and like I'm just like trying to be like
Full and happy and that's just not getting me full or happy
so I'm gonna choose the meal at home and
I know he can cook so
That's agreed. That's me
Longer a to spice it up or comfy clothes for a more chill vibe. No, I'm going comfortable clothes at all times
I never want to wear lingerie
Okay, so I am not a fan of lingerie
I've had this conversation with someone like multiple times and I'm like it's just so
Not the vibes and just also so unrealistic and I'm not into it
But what I am into go ahead is maybe like some some cute
Comfies and when I say cute comfies
I mean like this would be a more like put together
Like matching set like let's think a silk or satin like cute little
Yeah, like okay a little mat or like a matching sweatsuit like let's think like
2008
Juicy couture
tight velour
You know like very like put together vibes, okay? Well, so
Just to touch on the lingerie thing
I just want to know for the girlies that do like lingerie because I'm not judging
Like how does that go like are you getting in the lingerie before they know that you're getting in the lingerie?
And then you're surprising them or is this like a conversation?
Like let me go get my lingerie on and then it's gonna be on for three minutes
And then he's gonna take it off and like what I guess like are you doing the foreplay in the lingerie?
Like what what is the conversation? How is this happening? Are you bringing it to a hotel?
Like is he watching you put it on and then immediately taking like what is that?
What is that situation like interesting?
Never really thought of that also will say don't love lingerie, but I do love a good
matching set that can go like
My vibes would be we're gonna kick it and like put together sweatsuits and my makeup is gonna be done
And my hair is gonna be done
we're gonna have like a romantic dinner at home and
Underneath that little matching set. I'm gonna have another matching set on of like lace panties and like oh, yeah
That's a vibe like a lace bra situation like I'm trying to like class it up here
I'm not trying to you know be street walking or anything like I'm just trying to be like a classy lady and
Show you that I'm putting in this effort and I went the extra mile to get the lace
but also
What the extra mile to get the lace first of all, I'm a triple D
38 or 40 depending on the fit I need any girlies who are listening to this that are big bust big
but please send me links to
Matching sets not lingerie, but like matching sets that I can wear because I would love to do that under my clothes
And then it doesn't have to be a conversation because I could literally put it on under my clothes
Before even gets home from work and I could be showered and it won't and look normal
You know what I mean, and then it's not like this like that's exactly right conversation about like lingerie or what I'm wearing
It's like no surprise
Bitch when you take it off. It's on you know what I mean like it's a literal surprise
It's a literal surprise like I love that so much. So I'm glad that we can all
Do that for whoever we're gonna be with on that day. Okay?
What is your most memorable Valentine's Day?
We can go
Good and happy and like the best or we can go bad
Tragic train wreck. I'm gonna say Lincoln is my best
Valentine's Day
outcome I
I
Conceived Lincoln on Valentine's Day of
2013 Wow
Yeah, and I know it was that day because it was the only day I saw hobby for like
Four or five months because he went to BMT and then he had to go to tech school afterwards
So he wasn't home for that time. He didn't come home until after tech school. So
Yeah, he was wait down back up
But like what did you guys do on that Valentine's Day? Or was that the only memorable part? That was the only memorable part
I can remember because I remember flying to Texas my family. We went to go watch him graduate
But I don't think the action. I think the graduation was the day before I can't really remember like we were there for like three or four days
The only part of the day that I remember is having sex in the hotel. Oh, wow. Well, I hope it was good
Like I don't remember dinner. I don't remember. I don't think we I don't even know if we went out for food
Like I have no idea. Okay. Well, I don't have like a most memorable Valentine's Day
I am no longer really a Valentine's girl and I don't know if I just like grew out of it
And actually I saw something that was like Valentine's Day is just like a Hallmark holiday a hundred and and so then I was like
Thinking about it. I was like, yeah, you know what? You're probably right
But like I still like getting flowers and like shit. So I'm gonna still like be with this vibe
Will and I celebrate a Valentine's Day big like all through college
It was always like a to-do always dress up look the real parts
courted me to like these dinners
flowers
Jewelry, you know, like those things that always was like a vibe for us when we got married
I never let anybody watch Jackson really
So it was always like we did Valentine's together and it was just like dinner at home or I think we did take out
Japanese a lot like for Valentine's Day and ate it at home
Did chocolate covered strawberries together and then it was just like flowers and a gift and maybe like
Bubble bath. Do you know that we I don't know that we had like special sex or anything
I don't know that I've ever had special sex on Valentine's Day. I don't like can't think of any
I was never really like a Valentine like it was never like a big thing for me to like
Go get my partner gifts or like do anything like that like I can't ever think of anything like that
But um, do you think that Valentine's Day is more for the girls?
Like do you think it's more of like a holiday for men to show their appreciation for women?
Or do you feel like it should be even because I just maybe I'm a sexist
Maybe I am unfair, but I just don't think it's like a men's holiday
I don't think that women should get their husbands gifts on Valentine's Day like it's weird
So funny that you asked that because before Jackson's basketball practice this week
He was like dad
Do you remember like the gifts that you got mom for Valentine's like when she was your Valentine and he was like
Mom didn't get you gifts for Valentine's and I'm like no because
That's not a thing like no woman is out here just like
Mixing it up at the mall
Being like oh, I need to get him this
Thing like no, I mean, I'm sure people do do it and it's probably like and I did do it in college
Like I for sure did like I would put like I was so weird back then like I was just so
Nice and stuff I would put a whole little package thing together on Will's bed for him to like come home to and it would be like an
athletic outfit and shoes and a
Card and like all these things and then we got married. I was like absolutely not like
I'm supposed to be the one getting flowers or a piece of jewelry and a nice meal
And I don't know why I ever thought that or like who told me that
But I also think it has to do with my raising because I don't remember
Like I remember my dad doing stuff for the girls, but I don't remember
It ever being something for the boys, but then I'm kind of hypocritical for saying this
I was gonna say the same because that I do so much for with my kids
Like I get the cards and candy and chocolate and so they're gonna grow up and expect for their partners to do that for them because their mom
Is doing it for them. Yeah, and I'm a woman in their voice, but like it's just different like
Because those are our kids so it's different, but also I agree like we are hypocrites of Valentine's Day
Wait, okay, so we are Valentine hypocrites
What is the worst gift that you have ever received on Valentine's Day?
I will tell you what I think is a selfish gift on Valentine's Day
What and I am so specific about this for someone to gift you lingerie because bitch
That is not for me. That is for you. Oh, that's a good one
That is not for me. Like I don't want to wear that shouldn't want but floss up my asshole
I'm about to be 31. Like I don't want but floss in my like and how do you know?
I want to wear a first of all, what if it doesn't fit and then I'm embarrassed and now you've ruined both of our days
Yeah, no like literally like if you want to get me that just know that you're gifting yourself that
Don't count that as my don't count that as my gift
You can do that in addition to whatever you're getting for me
But that is not a gift for me. That is a gift for yourself
Yes, like and I feel like we all should like start a riot about this because if
If and I mean, I don't know maybe there are some women out there that love to have like a good lingerie
Collection and like they are committed to it
But you have to know that that's like one of the things for me about gift-giving no matter what holiday it is or what
occasion it is for me if you're buying any sort of gift for somebody
You need to know who you're gifting to and what their interests are because if you're giving them like one time
I told the story already. This was a Christmas gift
I really wanted to just like scream because it's you didn't read the room. You didn't know me
He gifted me a diamond tennis bracelet and I don't wear anything like that
Like that's like someone giving me lingerie for Valentine's Day. That is not for me. That is not we don't know me
I can't even imagine you wearing a diamond tennis bracelet
But I think this is like a stupid like thing that men do where they get in a fluster and they're like
I don't know what to get and so you can never go wrong with a diamond
So
Probably it's gonna be that it's like, okay. Well, if you can never go wrong with a diamond then make sure it's the right one
Like don't get me diamond tennis bracelets if I've never worn a bracelet
but if you want to get me diamond earrings like studs that I can wear or like
add to my
necklace with like a little I don't fucking know
Pendant a pen you know something something like first of all I am very
Weird about jewel. I'm weird about everything but like jewelry specifically
Um, I am such a minimalist when it comes to that like and when I say minimalist
Do I wear a decent amount of jewelry? Yes, but the pieces that I wear are like dainty small
um
Don't try to show up with something gaudy because
Definitely not wearing it and I'm giving it back to you because I don't want you wasting your money
Oh, I give the diamond I give the diamond tennis bracelet back now. It's like I don't I don't want this like this is go get your money back
I don't I do not have any there's two violent
There's two valentines that I remember one was
my ex-boyfriend Matt in high school and the other one is
Conceiving Lincoln outside of those two specifically
I can't remember any valentines
So I can't tell you the worst gift that I ever received on valentine's day because I literally don't remember
Have you ever given a bad gift? I guess my bad gift would be not giving one. Yeah
Yeah, I can't there's I can't think of anything off the top of my head
Like valentine's day is not a memorable thing for me. Like it's just like not a thing
Okay
What if if you like really had okay? Well, if it's not a thing
Would you be pissed off knowing it's valentine's day and then
You just like didn't get anything or like no one told you happy valentine like your partner like didn't tell you happy valentine's day
Um, you didn't get anything special like they didn't cook you a special meal
Um, no card nothing
First of all kill. I know you well enough to know that that would be something you would put in the group text
This asshole like did not do anything
Oh, I'm sure I've complained about it just because it was like a lack of appreciation or like a lack of thought
Um, because I was with chris for like five years and there's not
Oh, you know what? You know what he gifted me one time
Actually wait now that i'm thinking about this
Both dom and chris two different years
Gifted me the same thing. Was it crocs?
No, it was those, um, love stories that you can make and like edit and like have your own characters and like tell the story about love
Um, what are those books called? There's like a book where you like write your love story in it
I don't know, but i'm gonna find it. They both gifted me that on two different years
Um, I think I still have the one that chris gifted me floating around here somewhere
Um, and it was called low on love and it was like it was a story like our love story and on every page
I would laugh so hard if if somebody else came out of the woodworks and was like he gifted me the same thing. Um,
and it was like
Um, you know
The first page was like if you're ever questioning my love for you read this book
And it was like all of the things in the book and it was um, it was like our characters in it
Um, and then dom gifted me the same thing. I want to say like the year prior
That is a good indication
That it was bad news. Um
Okay, that it was bad news. Yeah
Zock doc has been a lifesaver for us this nasty sick season. Um, and we will definitely use this all year
It's perfect. Um, if you've had a health issue that you've kind of been stewing on or you're just sick from you know
The weather being around germy kids, whatever the case may be

That's zoc doc.com slash combos zock doc.com slash combos
Okay, I need to know if you were picking like let's say
You could just like pick anything for valentine's day. Mm-hmm. What are you? What are you picking?
I'm gonna go on a trip. I'm gonna go on a valentine's inspired
Vacation, okay, so I think that that is really romantic and really sweet if it's a romantic and sweet trip
But like if you're trying to take me to like a water park. No, absolutely. No, like we're not doing that
That's not the thing
Maybe like a cabin with like a hot tub and like a home cooked meal something like that. I can get behind those vibes
Maybe like let's go to Mexico for two days
Totally will do that sign me up all day. Yeah
Um, also if that's not our budget and we're not doing that then let's just go get couples massage
Cook dinner at home. Mm-hmm
Snuggle and call it a night. I think a massage would be my second up my second choice
Actually, that might even if if we're if we're worried about budgets. I think the massage is going to be my first choice
Um, I always love a good massage. I also
if someone
Gifted me like a blowout like got me a gift card to get a blowout or get my nails done or something
Like those are practical things that I would really love too
So for talking care stuff. Yeah, like self-care stuff that like we don't even necessarily have to do it together and I'm happy
Um, but also if we did it together like I would be I would be so happy if we did
You know like couples massages or something like that like that
That would be like quality time. So it's you know, I'm getting a massage and we're doing something together, you know
Okay
So we're gonna do these next two really quick. Okay. Do you feel obligated to have sex on valentine's day with your partner?
I feel like you shouldn't be celebrating valentine's day with the person
If you're not having sex with them. I feel like that's like such a romantic holiday that
It's all based around like romance and love
That like if you're not wanting to do that then you probably you're in the wrong place
So that's a good indication. Here's my thought on that. I think
Part of me is like
Relationships goes through relationships go through like ebbs and flows, right?
Like you're you go through periods where you're like
In love with them can't keep your hands off of them
Then you go through periods of time where you're just like
Not super into it and like I think that's completely normal slash common slash
Just a part of life
But if you're in a place in the marriage or the relationship where you're kind of like not really into each other
Like you're not really in love
You could either use the holiday to reconnect and like if you guys are both on the same page with that
And you're wanting to like kind of reconnect and get back to that and try to have sex
But if you're in a place where it's like I'm not really into my partner right now
I don't necessarily think that that means like you don't need to be together
But I definitely think it's like okay. Well, here's like a small token of my appreciation
We're not on the same page right now
But I still want you to know like you are my partner in this life and you know
I think there's definitely a way to appreciate your partner even if you're in a place in the marriage or relationship where you're
Not in like the in love in lust phase
Does that make sense?
I mean, I agree. I just think that that would be
I agree with everything that you just said and I think that that is super realistic
But I also think that know that ahead of time
And the room of where you are. Yes, and don't put yourself in a situation
This goes back to the same thing I said about um, I don't know I said this on the southern tea about
Girls going on dates with men just for like free meals
That's so fucking weird to me and it's about like the intention, right?
So if the intention is wrong
With celebrating valentine's day for you to get like just have somebody to celebrate with that
You're not like really feeling it whatever I feel like just go on a date with them on another time not like a special
Day whenever I was dating Malik. Um, he told me that like the
The year prior to the one like I'm sure he did something for me on valentine's day
I don't really remember
But he was telling me like the year prior for valentine's day
Some girl like randomly hit him up to see what he was doing for valentine's day
And like it's always funny to me when I hear about like exes or like their experiences or whatever and I was like
That is so weird to me like I would never hit someone up to celebrate a holiday
Just to have someone to celebrate with because it doesn't even like what is the purpose like where's not
I don't want to go to dinner with someone on valentine's day that i'm not fucking or dating like that's weird
Unless it's like a gallantines like if it's like a girl's thing like fine
But i'm not going on a date with someone for valentine's day that i'm not even seeing that's weird to me
I'm not getting a free meal from that. It makes me feel uncomfortable
That's so weird
Absolutely not. Um, and I think the last one
Do you actually like romantic dates or would you rather be at home? I
I think we've already very much answered that both of us like
Being at home
Okay, so there was something that I saw that I just like briefly have to mention
That's okay. So the book that you were talking about was love book online
Yes.com. Yes
That's really cute actually. Um, it was really cute
It was just funny that they hated each other so much and they did the same thing that they both did it also
Have you tried any of?
Courtney Kardashian's products. I think it's called like lemmy or something. I have not I would like to but I have not
Okay, so someone sent me this thing and they were like you guys are always talking about kitties on coffee combos
And there's a product on there called lemmy pur and it's a vaginal health gummy
Okay
And I was like, okay. Well, let me like go and read about it. So it says that
The it's the perfect lemmy clinically studied probiotics specifically target vaginal microbiome health and ph levels to support freshness
And odor plus they add vitamin c for antioxidant and pro collagen benefits and real pineapple extract
um
So I'm gonna I'm gonna try these. Um, someone said that they're they really work
So I'm like, I don't know like let me try. Let's give it a let's give it a shot
Okay, so in the facebook group
Um, did you see the picture that was posted at the kitty carpet? I did not
Okay, so it is
I'm gonna I'm gonna paint the scene
it is a
red furry heart and it is a
reusable
Downstairs to pay
What it's a reusable downstairs to pay like you basically like
Stick it on your kitty and it's a kitty carpet. What the fuck did anyone what does anyone need that for?
Well, I don't know. Maybe they were just like feeling like I tell you what happened when lux walked it on me in the shower
No, what? Oh, were you doing that dick thing?
Wait, I told someone about that I told someone about not
I told someone about like the the dick that sticks to the wall. Yeah, yeah, yeah
I mean, I don't care if you tell them I have one other thing and they were like
Who enjoys humping a wall? No, you're not humping the wall. You're just like learning to throw it back
you know like giving it back to them, but so
I'm in the shower and
My my shower is completely glass and like my one of my problems is that my kids don't knock like they just don't knock when they
Do anything and like we're working on it
But so lux comes in he wants me to like probably open a fucking fruit snack or something. I don't know
And he's he does or says something funny and I start laughing
And he's like
What is why is that hairy thing moving?
And I said
what
And he pointed at it. He's like, why is that hairy thing moving when you laugh?
And I was like, oh my god. I was like my vagina
And he was like, that's your vagina. I said, let's get the fuck out. Get out of the bathroom
Wait, okay, so
He said it moved when I laughed I've talked about growing up and like how
We basically were just like rogue humans and never knocked never did anything
um
I'm very intentional about that with jackson and about like personal and private space
Mm-hmm, and I would be mortified if I was having a conversation with my son and I was butt ass naked and he was like
What's that hairy thing moving?
I'd be mortified. No, I was absolutely mortified. Okay. So does that are you saying because I also talked about on the southern tea
Are like do you get to a point where you outgrow a bald vagina?
And that makes me want to ask you
Did you outgrow it like are you no longer? It's not that it's just I haven't
Had the time to maintain like I keep it
Trimmed and like shaped up, but I have not shaved it bald in a long time probably like three weeks
Um, I probably shave it once a month. I just run out of time or I don't have enough time to do it
Um, like last night I trimmed it up and I
Shaped it up, but I didn't shave it bald, but like I still like a bald cat. You know what I mean?
Like I like yeah, I'm definitely just don't have time
I'm definitely one for a bald cat, but
I just wonder, you know, like how do women the conversation was basically like
How do you evolve to like a landing strip or just like bikini? Like how does that happen over time?
And at what age does that happen?
Um, because I'm I'm like I could try a landing strip, but I would not love that
Honestly, that would be more work to like make sure it's like a perfect landing strip
Like we want to be we want it to be a nice landing a smooth landing
I also talked about that and like how do you
You know like make sure the lanes are
Even and nice and straight. Yeah, like you would need to go to a barber to have them like shape up your cat
Okay, well, I I love that Lux called you out for that and like that makes me love him so much more

Okay, so this person wrote in on the facebook and said this is a valentine's day gone wrong
First off, I love you ladies so much and listen every week back when I was pregnant with my first child my then boyfriend now x
Had been out with his friends the night before valentine's day out at the bar all night and my boyfriend was acting strange the next day
We were one of those corny couples with the shared facebook account
Ick and I noticed that he randomly blocked this girl that I had never heard of
I just had a real bad feeling in my gut something was off and I was sure he cheated on me with this random girl
That was now blocked so on valentine's day. I was seven months pregnant and messaged this girl
How do you know my boyfriend did he cheat on me etc?
The girl told me he hadn't cheated on me
But he had a whole ass kid with her two years before I met him
He kept a whole ass kid a secret from me and I found out on valentine's day
He never paid child support for this kid and would never acknowledge this kid
We stayed together for a few years after that, but I finally left him for good in 2016
I've hated valentine's day ever since until I met my now amazing fiance in 2017. Okay
I have zero respect for a man. Yeah
No, that's not a thing
if you
and here's the thing like you get in a relationship with another woman and you have a whole ass kid and
Maybe that would have worked like back in the day
and you would have gotten away with it
but with social media DNA tests like
Technology the way it is today. You're not getting away with that
So the fact that any person would be dumb enough to even try to ride that lie is stupid and I have zero respect for
any person
Who will not acknowledge what they helped create? That's really weird to me to lie about it in a relationship
um
Or if you're dating someone like how do you get out of that?
Like what do you how when it comes about like how do you explain why you would keep that a secret in a relationship or like
my friend my girlfriend's here visiting from
Vegas and she was just telling us about um
her son reaching out to his father um and
His wife didn't know that his 18. Well, I mean he's 21 now your old son existed
So he's been living a lie in his marriage for like 20 years. Like I don't understand that
That's so insane. Um
Yeah, I I don't understand that either. I also just want to
Go back to the part about the shared facebook account. I don't know if it's just me
Or if everybody else also thinks this but when I see a shared facebook account, I immediately go. Who's the cheater?
Who is the cheater? That's that's what I think
could be
completely
Not happening. I don't know circumstances, but I'm being judge judy when I see that I'm like somebody cheated and
They're not trustworthy enough to have their own facebook account. So that's why they have
a shared one
Um, I think if you're having a shared account, we need to know like more reasons why you're having a shared account
Like this is a business like what it's just it's so weird. Like why why would you want?
Like I understand like the no secrets thing to know
I mean, but just because you're so here's the thing. I saw this tick talk and it was like
this guy um giving relationship advice and he was saying um
Like if you have to do things like that, there's no trust in a relationship
But like you should trust your partner enough to have their own things and maybe even have access to them
But not feel like you need to go search your partner's stuff
Or that you have to hide it or you have to combine everything because of it
So like that's really weird to me that I would never share an account with somebody ever
I don't care what the circumstances are. It's never happening
1000% agree. Okay. Another worse valentine's day ever
Okay, okay. I was 17 my boyfriend of a year broke up with me over the phone while I was visiting my dad in another city
First of all over the phone breakups. I just have to pause
Don't be a coward like literally break up with someone to their face. Um
An hour later my mother called sobbing because she had a knockdown drag out fight with her boyfriend
My stepmom had been verbally abused and then called into work
By her heinous boss and it was a Saturday
My poor shell shocked father dealing with three crying women tried to make it better by taking my stepmom and I to a movie at the end of the day
My stepmom was really late getting out of work
So we missed the movie and we that we wanted to see so we settled for something none of us really cared about
Just said that we'd have something to do
After the movie we went to dinner my dad dropped my stepmom and I off in front of the restaurant
He pulled around the corner to park and was hit by an oncoming car
He was fine, but the car was totaled
Okay, this is a good indication when stuff like this starts happening and the day starts like that
I think that's a good indication not to like try to make it better because it's honestly just gonna get worse
This story is a direct reflection of that
um
When my day starts off shitty within like the first hour of the day, I'm
Honestly, probably taking a self care day. Like I'm I'm canceling everything
Well, you just don't want to like let it keep getting keep getting worse. You know what I mean?
Like that's yeah, that would have been a no for me and like if I got
We've all had those days where
Literally every single thing goes wrong. Yeah, we've all had there's no worse feeling
but to have
Every single thing go wrong and there also be like emotional aspects involved in that on a valentine's day
Count me out. I also wait. I wanted to go back and just say to
you
that I am definitely the type of person that
um
associates
Bad moments or like memories with
smells
Yes, um, or also like specific dates. Like I can remember
Like not like going on a date but like a date on the calendar. Like I can remember like specific
Dates and can quote them like oh, do you remember on
such and such date that you did this? Um, so
Lindsay's toxic
No one should try to bamboozle me or do something bad on an actual like
holiday that I like and
joy and celebrating because if you
Literally fuck up Christmas for me by doing something bad
Absolutely not
Absolutely the fuck not like no not happening. Okay
Um one more of the worst valentine's day ever and then we're gonna do foul play. Okay
I was in a long-distance relationship
That was going downhill and it needed to end like yesterday
We had been together for more than two years
So I felt I owed him the respect of having a difficult breakup conversation in person good for you
Yeah, the problem once I realized it was time to break up the first available weekend for me to visit
Happen to be valentine's day
Fuck
Yeah, that was where you went wrong on this one. He ended up taking me out for a disastrous dinner
It was so bad the waitress actually asked if I was okay
I wound up breaking up with him the next day on the actual holiday
My train home wasn't until the next day. So I had to stay at his place after dumping him. Okay every part of this execution was wrong
Wait, so like would you hold off on the breakup until after valentine's day then?
I would have never gone knowing that the first available time was valentine's day and honestly, I think
After I just said don't break up over the phone. I'm gonna be a hypocrite again
Yes, I agree. This would be a circumstance where you have to break up over the phone because I'm not even making the effort to come out there
And I'm not spending the money to come out there
Like thank you for the two years that we had together. I hope there were some good times mixed with the craziness
But like you're not for me and I'm not gonna come spend no fuck no absolutely not and honestly
It was already a long distance relationship anyway. So I feel like that's where in those situations
You can get away with doing things over the phone
I'm talking about if you're living 15 minutes from someone and you're going through a breakup
Have the conversation in person like don't be a coward. So can I read you a breakup text that I sent to someone? Yes
Okay. Oh god, this is so good. Oh
God, this is so good
Okay, this was the day before my birthday last year
March 13th. Listen, I should have done this sooner
But I thought I could make it work before we do anything further or do anything for my birthday
I have to tell you my heart is not in this. I love you, but I cannot be with you
No amount of talking will change my mind. This has been heavy on my heart for a while. Please respect this and give me space
See, I very much respect that but we lived 15 minutes from each other
So I should have said it in person
But I just felt like if we said it in person
I would have taken it back and we would have figured out a way to make it work and I wasn't happy
See, I feel like if you're gonna have the in-person conversation you have to be strong enough to stand by
Where you're at. You can't be manipulated or bamboozled or emotionally
Pulled in a direction that changes the direction that you went into that conversation
His response
Oh god after FaceTiming me immediately after I started crying. He was crying. He said
First he said you got it. That was the initial text back. You got it. That's it
And then about an hour later. He said he had FaceTiming me. We were both crying and then I was like, I'll call you back
Like this isn't it like I can't FaceTime you he said I'm feel really broken right now
And I'm fully understanding of how you feel
I hope that you find real love and real connections and have the best life for real. Thank you for everything you did for me
Thank you for being you you don't have to call me back after you drop off the boys. You don't have to explain anything else
I'm just so hurt and in denial. I know this has been on your heart for a while and there's nothing that can change that
I'm losing my voice. I'm losing you and that's the hardest thing I'm dealing with but I'm going to be okay
Um, and that was our what I thought was the end of our breakup, but then it ended up going
South um, but that was like for me
I had to do it that way. I think it's by circumstance honestly
to me I always prefer in-person conversations because I feel like you can read someone's emotions. I feel like
um, nothing can be misinterpreted
over text message, and I think that that's a lot of times why we stand behind
using text message because it's an easy way to do hard things that you don't want to have to face and so
um, I have been very guilty of doing that and through therapy
I have learned that hard conversations aren't meant to to have over text message and
And chances are if you're choosing to resort to using text to do it
It's because you're not actually in the place that you need to be and to have it. So
Oh, okay. Okay. That makes sense. I mean I
Also was this was the beginning of my spiral last year. Mm-hmm
Like I was spiraling that same time
um, it should have been in person, but I also like I said before I was just like afraid
of it
Being one of those things where like we talk ourselves out of the breakup once it's in person because we you know
We would have a good time in person sometimes and it was just like
I feel this way and I don't want to go back. I don't want to lie to myself or try to make it work when I know
I need to not be here. I need to not be in this
I will say though
I do think that there is a place for text message
And if you are willing to cold you are willing to send how you feel
And cold turkey and no back and forth then there's a place for that. Yes, I think
If if it's not like that then you can't use you can't use text in this specific situation though with this
This girl. I don't know who wrote this in. I'm also not attacking any person. I'm just saying I feel like it
Should have been a indication if the first time to be able to see each other was valentine's day weekend
And that to me would have been okay. I really need to think about this. I need to
muster up the courage to
Send a text to be like hey before I travel and do this
I want to let you know kind of like what you said like how I'm feeling where I'm at
Why I'm no longer feeling emotionally invested in this anymore
Um, I certainly would have definitely not going out
You know further to ever even have been a disastrous dinner on valentine's day weekend
Um, and I certainly wouldn't have broken up and then stayed at the damn person's place
Right like that was that's not
That for me. I would have probably left and we would have been still together like that would have been just like a weird
That's not no. Fuck. No. Absolutely. That's not a thing. Okay. Okay foul play
um
Romantic getaway gone wrong. Oh shit. I was hoping hey ladies. I love you and look forward to this podcast every week
I have a foul play in time for the bonus episode Kristen requested for my fiance and I think
Vacation to Las Vegas. It was our first and only vacation. We have what we will have as an engaged couple
So of course we wanted to have a romantic getaway
It was the very opposite. I'm an introverse
I'm an introvert with severe anxiety and Vegas was just not for me
All of the people the fill down to seeing a guy shit on the sidewalk in the middle of the strip big
Nope, the worst was yet to come on our second to last night there
We decided to look up a restaurant and got dinner before going to bed early
I woke up at 2 a.m. A little nauseous, but I knew I had to poop
So I tried to brush off the feeling after 30 minutes went by and I knew I had to shit
So I went to the bathroom normal poop. I thought I was done
Nope, my assholes suddenly turned into a firehouse and I could not stop
I have gluten intolerance and IBS. So I brushed it off
3 30 a.m. Rolls around and my fiance is yelling outside the bathroom door that he needs to shit
Now I leave the bathroom so he can do his business knowing I was really risking the security deposit on this room
Because I wasn't sure how long I could do without shooting liquid shit out of my ass
And it wasn't long. I couldn't wait next thing. I know I'm in the shower puking and shitting
Explosively while my fiance is shitting on the toilet and puking into the jacuzzi
Y'all ever seen the movie bridesmaids? Yeah, it did look like that
Oh, she said yeah, it did be like that lol
It went on until about noon. Literally thought we were passing away. I ain't never been sick like that
I swear I could have had a colonoscopy that afternoon if they needed because I was clear laughing my fucking ass off
Anyway, I assume we got an early food poisoning from the restaurant
We ate at my mom later sent me news article about mass vomiting incident at Vegas school
So maybe related to that just in case you want a fucking cherry on top of this shit ass situation on our way home
The next day we checked our security system and the fire alarms were going off
Nothing like losing all of your insides and then thinking you're losing your house to a fire too
Everything turned out. Okay. I hope you enjoyed my foul play and keep being the amazing badass women that you are
That is awful
Okay, I have not had stomach bug in a long time and I told you
That we're like food poisoning, but I have this like little brief story about
My grandmother splitting a hot dog with someone and she got food poisoning and the other person didn't
So like I don't know how stuff like that happens if I'm getting food poisoning and I am in a hotel room
And someone else also got food poisoning with me immediately. I'm calling downstairs and asking if they have another available room
Because the thoughts of being trapped in a place like that with someone because someone else shitting or puking
Is going to cause me to more so shit and puke
And the thoughts of also having to share a bathroom while someone else is also doing the foul stuff that I'm
Having to do
Makes me hurl. I'm not as grossed out as some people are about like throwing up and shitting
Um, sometimes with throw up. It's a little weird with like grown-ass kids. However
I don't want to hear the sounds. I don't want to hear the sounds of someone throwing up
So that is where I draw the line. Remember when I got the stomach bug in chat nuga
I immediately got mark allen jr. His own room because I did not want him to hear me shitting and throwing up in the bathroom
While i'm falling asleep on the counter
Um in the bathroom. So I am with you on that immediately own room. I'm not sharing a room
I don't want someone to have to take care of me and like poor christin. Like I basically shout on her
Like oh, and I also just want to say too that if I was thinking of a romantic getaway
The last place in the united states of america that I would choose is fucking los vegas. Las vegas
Although I want to say I think I want to go there for our next content trip because I found this really cool coffee place
But it will not be a valentine's day trip at all
Yeah, no, we're not going there for valentine's day, but I mean I would go to vegas with you
I think that would be a good time. Uh, we can take we can take my nanny and she would absolutely love that
Oh my god, that would be so fun. Okay. The second one for starters. Please keep anonymous
I always love when they preface that but it's so funny because I'm like it's about to get real
If any of my friends listen, they will know it's me for sure
I've been dating a guy for one and a half years and every time we did the deed or rather attempted
He ended up fucking the mattress every single time
Why did I stay who knows anyway? We broke up in january, but decided to hook up on valentine's day
The one time he actually hits the hole. I got pregnant 20 years later. I have an amazing son. What do you mean?
He ends up fucking the mattress. What does that mean? Wait, were they always drunk whenever they were fucking because how does he not know
That he's not in
Every time we did the deed or or attempted rather he ended up fucking kill what she's saying is he thought he got in
But he didn't and he was fucking the mattress
Not her and the one time he did
Get in
They got pregnant. So is this a pre-ejaculation problem because why the fuck would he
What how would you not know?
How would you not know that like you're hitting mattress not koochie?
That's like dry humping. You know what I mean
I'm
I don't really have anything else to say to that other than like
Yeah, I'm so sorry that you experienced that
if
If he
Fucked a mattress one time and got off that would be one mattress fucking too many
And I'm out period. I'm out for those reasons. I'm out. I'm out ma'am
Okay, last foul play
last one
When I was 18 and dating my first boyfriend. I had a date that left a lasting memory
My parents had just got a puppy and we were going out for the night. So they left me to take care of the pup
She was still fairly young
So I decided to take her back to my boyfriend's house to avoid keeping her in the crate back in my parents house
We were in his room rolling around on his bed when things started to get hot and heavy
It didn't take long for the smell of shit to waft into the air hitting us both like a brick wall
We were so disgusted and confused where the smell was coming from and why I sat up
And why so I sat up and started looking around for the dog. I didn't see anything from behind me
I heard oh my god. Sure enough the dog shit on the bed and I had been rolling around
My back and the comfort
Work covered in poop
Needless to say it left a long lasting memory and I never brought the dog back there with me again
I love and appreciate you both so much. Thank you for making me laugh weekly and feeling heard as a parent
I'm fucking dead. Have you ever I don't know if you've experienced this because you were with will
But when I started getting dogs, um
I was
Full adult. I never had a dog in my childhood. So I got bear was my first dog
um, and then after that like when I got um
Another dog when I was with chris and stuff like when that relationship was new
And I had a puppy and I was like potty training and stuff. I was always so embarrassed to like
Have to clean up dog shit and dog piss like that weird awkward like potty training
It was like embarrassing to me for some reason like I had never done that
And so if I rolled around in dog poop and then had like I was with my boyfriend
Like I don't know that I would have been able to talk to him ever again for the sole fact that I would have been
It's so embarrassed, but like me shitting on myself as a 30 year old woman
Doesn't embarrass me as bad
um, it's very embarrassing when your dog shits and you have a boyfriend or
Something like over because it's just like makes you feel like you're just like a bad pet parent
Like why is your dog like shitting and it's like I don't know the bitch is just like a habitual diarrhea shitter
Like I literally have no idea. I don't get embarrassed by it. Um, I will say
I told a story with to christen about
Georgia shitting on the bed in the middle of the night when jackson and I were in the bed
Absolutely just disgusting and it was like solid turds and then also like mixture of diarrhea
And I can tell you right now that I was very alarmed by it being at the foot of the bed
If I had ever rolled in dog shit in any state whether a man was in the bed with me or not
dogs never getting in the bed again and also
Um, I couldn't clean myself enough like I don't know how many showers I would have to take to remedy that situation
But like I would not be okay and also let's just say that if you're in a dating situation and you take
A dog somewhere and they do this. I I wouldn't be able to apologize enough. I don't know what I would do
It's puppies are a lot of responsibility and I just wouldn't want to take them anywhere because I would feel so out of place
Already and then they're just so much work
Um
No, that would have been a no my boyfriend can come to my house to take care of this dog with me and hang out
But I'm not taking no because that's on his bed
What if he didn't have a mattress protector and then now there's poop juice on your fucking bed poop juice
