Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome to Dear Miss Nickerthee. I'm Sophie. And I'm Johanna. And this is the podcast where we used to read out my diary but now we've opened up the floor to you guys. So now we're going to read out yours.
Starting point is 00:00:11 Enjoy. Enjoy. And remember it's never too much. It might be too much. Hi, welcome back. Wait, there's a plant in your face. I can't. Oh, you need to see.
Starting point is 00:00:23 I can't see you. There you go. You might not be able to see our plant now, though, on screen. Oh, sorry. It was a beautiful. Messed up the decor. The decor. Popper Pia up.
Starting point is 00:00:33 Um, right. Welcome back. Welcome back. It's been a while since we podcasted. Years, in fact. It's been years. Um, it's the Panny. I'm really happy to be back, are you?
Starting point is 00:00:46 Yeah, because we just... Sorry, one of my dogs is, uh, currently here with us in our little bedroom studio. Oh, there you go. She's settled now. Test her audience. Um... A lot's happened. A lot's happened. A lot has happened.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Since... You're pregnant. I'm pregnant. You're divorced. I'm divorced. Big changes. Big changes. Lots of diary entries.
Starting point is 00:01:12 Been a lot. A lot of diary entries. A lot of stories. A lot of journaling. I have done a lot of journaling over the last couple of years. So we just figured, let's jump back in, because we're going to be chatting anyway. We might as well chat with you guys. You've been my therapist for...
Starting point is 00:01:29 I have. Yeah. I mean, I have. I love therapy. I do pay for therapy, but also nothing like a girlfriend therapist. No, yeah, a girlfriend, yeah, a good chin wag with a girl. It solves 99% of the problems.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Yeah. So, yeah, we thought, right, let's get back into the swing of it and also open out, so it's not just me and you chatting back and forth, open it out to our community, our audience. Our digital friends. And because we also want to hear, A problem, what is it? A problem shared. Is a problem hard?
Starting point is 00:02:06 Or thrice, if it's... Because it's a three-way. Yeah, so let's have a... And who doesn't love a three-way? Who doesn't love a three-way? Top problem-solving we're on about. Yeah. Get your minds out of the gutter.
Starting point is 00:02:21 So, yeah, so we, each week, invite our wonderful audience. If you were there from the very beginning of our podcasts, than you're hardcore and we love that you're still here, hello. But yeah, we want to put it out to you guys and hear what you have to say every week we're going to talk about different things, different topics, like think of it as like
Starting point is 00:02:44 we're like your weird agony ants that haven't really got advice but we just want to, we're just here for it. We're not here to give advice but we are here to find the funny in life. In life and all of... Yeah, because that's how we survive and how we cope. is sharing stories if you become a part of somebody else's survival guide.
Starting point is 00:03:03 You've had not a, you know, you had a crap year and the divorce has not been pretty, but we've found the funny in it. And I've had a really not nice pregnancy. No. It's been horrendous. So I'm finding the funny in the pregnancy. Yeah. And before that, it's been, do you know what? Let's write off the last five, six years for me. It's not been great. Because it's not been great, but they've found a lot of joy in it. Yeah. But, you know, oh yeah my dad died I don't know that's not funny
Starting point is 00:03:34 I'm tired so this is what you've got to look forward to this is basically I always do that one of my best friends Hannah she's always like she's used to it now but like she's like
Starting point is 00:03:54 it's just like it's like it's like it's like it's like it's when you do it and there's other people around she's like I laugh but like and you laugh or like my other best friends but other people literally are like that's so awkward
Starting point is 00:04:05 that she just said that it's all right I get it It's the only, yeah, you've got, I deal with everything with really dark humour. Yeah, same. It's my coping. Same. It's my, oh, I write a play.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Do you know what? The funniest thing that you've said recently, I'm going to tell a little, we story to, a little story to start us off and then we're going to get to your stories. Wet the appetite. Wet the appetite. It was when we were talking about a friend of ours who had the unfortunate situation where she had temporary. Bell's palsy in her face and her father
Starting point is 00:04:43 who's like the sweetest man on earth Oh my God I adore him was talking to us about the fact that she'd got Bell's palsy and how he felt so like he wanted to help her and he felt like he couldn't do anything and his heart was breaking for her and everything
Starting point is 00:04:55 we were there just like and then I said to you I don't think my dad would notice if I had Bell's palsy and half my face was paralysed and you went well my dad's dead delivery was
Starting point is 00:05:12 it was genius. I was like... I just... Well, yes, he definitely wouldn't notice. It definitely... Well, my dad... That was it. I remember it. My dad wouldn't notice because he's dead. Unless you've been through it, I can't... It's a thing. It's a thing. If anybody else
Starting point is 00:05:26 has experienced that, let me know or let Jay know or let us know, because I think it is a thing. But then we're back. We're talking about dead people and divorce. The two D's. The double D. The double day, death and divorce. But really excitingly,
Starting point is 00:05:42 is expecting a baby and she is also engaged. Any minute. Any minute actually. On the last few weeks. Baby could come anytime soon and I'm going to be in the delivery suite so I'm really excited. Oh yeah. Heads up for that episode. I mean we're not recording a podcast while but could we? No. I mean you can set up a camera because it'll be fun it'll be fun to watch back just to be like I feel like yeah you've got a lot of home videos it's like a tradition in your family but that I'm just going to be like creeping in I want to watch but I also cinematic mode panning in.
Starting point is 00:06:12 I also don't want to watch. No. Because that could be... We're manifesting a beautiful birth. I'm going to be really honest. I was like, I can't see what you'll see. Oh, I don't know if I... Will I be...
Starting point is 00:06:26 Would you think I go down the bottom? You might have to. Your fiancé, I don't think he will. He's not going to cope and he said he's not going... I need someone down that end. We can't all be up here. Well, doctors, it'd be like watching his favourite pub burned down. If we don't get to the hospital, if that's a scenario that happens...
Starting point is 00:06:40 Because your family are... They're known for... for flashbirths. A lot of my family have very quick, very quick births. We're talking under half an hour. My cousins... Oh, I'll be there. Don't we? So, one of us has to not, and I can't see... It's like a slip and slide.
Starting point is 00:06:55 With the towels. Pre-heated in the dryer, don't worry. Slipperly little buggers as well when I come out. That's what we're manifesting. A slip and slide. A slip and slide. Nice easy. If she comes fast, if she comes in a weird time or a weird place or whatever, but I don't know, but still, what you see...
Starting point is 00:07:10 Oh, yeah, you know I get down there. It's way more than what I'm going to see. And it might be a jump scare. It's fine. I know it's a little bit swollen right now. It is. I'm fully prepared. I've seen a lot of birth videos. I know how your pelvis should and shouldn't be.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Yeah. Nobody lies down on their back to give birth. You shouldn't be doing that. That's the thing. Gravity. Vagina to the floor helps the baby to the door. Exactly. So, yeah, you know, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:07:37 I'm just, at the moment, I'm just in denial that it's going to be happening and then I keep looking at the fridge and being like, Oh my God, in a few weeks. In the fridge, why? What you're keeping in there? No, on my fridge. On my fridge is like... Keep looking in the fridge and thinking,
Starting point is 00:07:49 God, I've got to give birth. Seeing a melon in there. No, I... Yes, I've got a calendar on my fridge and I'm like marking off the days like prison until I get out. She's served her time. Until I get out of jail.
Starting point is 00:08:04 I've had a nine-month sentence. And yeah, and it keeps getting down and closer and closer to D-Day and I'm just sort of like... She looks... She looks amazing, though. My heart is happening. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:16 You look so beautiful, pregnant. You do. I do not feel it. Well, you look it. I do not feel it. You look it. It's possibly the most unbeautful I've ever felt. No.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Yeah. But they say that, don't they, that, like, girls suck your beauty. They literally... I mean, they suck your pink. Like, she hasn't, let's be clear. But if you're feeling, like, apparently, like, a lot of people that have... This could be true, this could not be true. Boys, apparently you feel like you're glowing and the best you've ever felt.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Apparently, if you're having a girl, you don't feel like that. She's just like, she really has been though, hasn't she? She's really, so sick with it. It's part of, I know, it's part of the entry price of making a baby. You have to pay with your energy and youth and beauty. Thank God for Botox. Thank God for Botox. I can't wait to get back to some Botox.
Starting point is 00:09:06 But, yeah, not felt beautiful, not felt glowing. Oh, you are. I've felt like the, I've got the physical. physique of Buddha. That's what my fiancé said the other day. He went, you look quite like a Buddha, don't you? If you sit there. No, you don't.
Starting point is 00:09:20 I don't know what I do. Look at this. Well, you are pregnant. He's not wrong. Do you know what I bet? But also, this weird thing happens where I'm more... So this one, and on the one hand, I feel the most unbeautiful I've ever felt. On the other hand, you're kind of disconnected from your body, and it feels like I'm
Starting point is 00:09:40 wearing someone else's meat suit. So I'm more comfortable being naked like this. Really? Yeah. Oh, I just like, I just strip off around the house and when I'm waiting for the bath to run and stuff. And it's none of that like, oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, like, it honestly feels like you're wearing a wetsuit of somebody else's body. It doesn't, it's a disconnect. Oh, that's good. Because I'm still like, I'm in like a new relationship and I'm still like, oh, oh, oh, oh, I'll like get out of the bathroom, like, covering up my boobie. You lose all of that. You don't give a crap. And it honestly, you just stand in there, like the grin. And like, you don't care. So, and I know that, for. But what I know is that bubble's going to pop once the baby's out and I'm back in my body.
Starting point is 00:10:20 And then that's when you realise your body's changed. But right now it doesn't feel like my body. Well, yeah. You're so neat. It feels like something else. I think you're going to just like, feel hopefully like just really proud of yourself and feel beautiful. I feel like super like, whoa, my body made that.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Yeah, that's incredible. Whoa. Female bodies are amazing and they're so resilient and like, Girl power, I feel very spice girls. But, but, yeah, I'm aware that I think that, that me feeling like, I thought I was going to not deal with it very well, because of a history of teenage eating disorders and a body dysmorphic and stuff, I thought I was going to be really like, oh my God, doesn't matter. That's so good, too, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:04 You get like a kind of like little denial bubble, but I'm very aware that that's, I'm probably going to be like, oh, afterwards. No, no, she's like eight foot tall and a model, like, you're, you're going to be great. Right. Right. Should we get into it? Talking of unhinged and divorces. Today's topic is unhinged.
Starting point is 00:11:22 And we've asked people just, what is the most unhinged? Thing you've ever done after a breakup. Which is, because that is when you really, most people derail. Yeah, well, you're not yourself. You're not, you're not. You're not yourself when you're hungry.
Starting point is 00:11:36 You're not yourself when you're brokenhearted. But it's, yeah, and we had an overwhelming response. So what we do is we put them out on. to Facebook. If you're following us on Facebook at Funny Old World at She's Not Funny or it's Sophie Craig at Johanna James and we ask you guys
Starting point is 00:11:55 a question and then you respond and we got over 4,000 comments just on this particular one. It's a lot of us being unhinged. There's a lot of us being unhinged and you know what? It's a safe space we're just sharing these stories and we thought we'd share some of them with you today
Starting point is 00:12:12 so we all feel less less unhinged. Less unhinged. Get all right. Yeah. At least I didn't do that, Susan. You know what I mean? But also if you did it,
Starting point is 00:12:22 it is what it is. Safe space, safe space. So, we've written into our diary. You might remember Dear Miss Nick Thief, where that all started with my letter to the local school
Starting point is 00:12:33 pedophile. And it just sort of caught on and that became our tagline, Dear Mr. Nicker Thief. Do you like our diary? By the way, by the way, everyone, we've got a little diary here. Dear Diary.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Dear Diary. Dear Mr. Drana Lamley. You do something. Dead hurry. Okay, team, tell us the most unhinged thing you've ever done after a breakup. Yeah, and we're not talking like rang him 12 times whilst I was drunk. We're talking like unhinged, slightly questionable, but also completely understandable.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah. It's very safe space here. And we had a overwhelming response. I think it's fair to say we had over 4,000 comments. so clearly it resonated and it kicked off some pretty interesting discussions. Dear Mr Nick Thief, I took my ex's toothbrush, run it under the rim of the toilet
Starting point is 00:13:29 and then rinse it off in the pee that was still in the thing and then put it back in the thing. That is disgust. That's the sort of thing they do in films. I didn't realise that was a thing. We should probably score it as well on how unhinged it is because that's, I'd say that's a classic. It's a classic, I've seen it done in a lot of films.
Starting point is 00:13:47 I think that's probably where she might have been inspired. Is it a she? It's a she. Yeah, it's a classic, but, um, but, but I don't think it's that high on the unhinge meter. No, I'd give that a three. Yeah, sort of two and a half three. Four, actually she dipped it in the Pee that was in the bottom of the bowl. Maybe that gives an extra half a point.
Starting point is 00:14:06 For the Piss. The Pist dip. Yeah. Um, yeah. Wow. Wow. Do you want to do one? Okay, yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Okay. Dear Mr. Nicker thief, this is a good one. When my mum's ex was found cheating, she let herself into his house and cut the crotch out of every pair of trousers he owned and then put defrosted prawns in all of his shoes. I've heard this before. I've heard that people put him in the curtain poles. Oh, prawns.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Yeah. Extra smelly. I remember it well, she was a woman squand. Squand? She was a woman squand. She was a woman scorned. Yeah, okay. She also hung a sign on his front door saying,
Starting point is 00:14:47 I am a lying, cheating bastard. In big letters, so the whole community saw it. Yep. And he was a well-respected doctor in the community as well. So this wasn't good. See, the thing is, that must feel amazing to get that done and to, like, put a sign up. But it's like, it's really obvious it's you.
Starting point is 00:15:12 this is a thing I think if you're going to do something Do it stealthy I was a hair Whisker away Probably is my most unhinged thing I was a hair whisker away From filling an ex's motorbike tank
Starting point is 00:15:25 With water I remember And I had to tell you not to Yeah And I was so close I even had a friend who was like Yes let's do it And I was like begging me on
Starting point is 00:15:35 And I was like Like good angel and bad angel Yeah I was literally like Do it don't do it do it And I didn't do it And I didn't do it and now I'm so glad I didn't do it because actually it looks better on me that I didn't do it.
Starting point is 00:15:46 And it's probably illegal. I mean, highly dangerous, but someone's water in someone's... Well, I think we'll just break the bike. Yeah, maybe. Very expensive. But yeah, the best... If you're feeling like you want revenge,
Starting point is 00:16:01 very normal, very like, oh, I just want them to feel pain or have some sort of like repercussion, justice, justice warriors. But actually, the best justice that you can ever get or the best like revenge is rise above it until you don't care and live your life and your life is your revenge you just like blossoming exactly this is it here you you you know yeah yeah I did go and see a psychic though is that unhinged that's a little bit unhinged okay maybe
Starting point is 00:16:28 but I went to see psychic and actually like I spent a lot of money on therapy and everything and picking learning I read books and books and books and everything and like became super knowledgeable on the situation and what had happened to me and everything because initially when it first happened I was just like, bleh word vomit because I was like, I am done holding this in. And then, but I hadn't understood what happened. A lot of therapy. And then went to see the psychic and was like, that was what I needed. Like none of these books, none of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Like, I went to see the psychic and I was like, this was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The advice she gave me and what she told me, like, and she, and she, literally broke down the year like for me yeah and month by month categorically everything she said would happen has happened has happened down to the date she gave me dates and everything and then you know and she was said to me she was like oh and your hip's gonna go my hip's gone yeah it's yeah you're now in physiotherapy hip like like down yeah and you never knew this woman before never knew this woman you walked into the room but down to the tea and like so it wasn't just I went in for obviously because it was in a really like awful place but the
Starting point is 00:17:39 amount of information that she gave me on things that happened previously and things that are going to happen. I just kind of, it took a breath. Because I think that's the fear when, like, you have a breakup is like the unknown and then you spiral and you project this life that they, you know, that you thought you wanted and that they're probably doing now and blah, blah, blah, blah. And you sit, after that, I just sat and went, it's all right, I know what's coming. Yep. And it's like, so maybe, maybe, maybe going to, uh, I actually recommend going to a psychic. Going to a psychic. rather than putting prawns in the curtain poles. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Okay, this is fun. She said, right, dear Miss Nickerty, I wouldn't say it's unhinged, but my narcissistic gaslighting ex hopped straight onto social media after we broke up, trying to bait other girls. One of the girls happened to be one of my employees at work. So on a staff night out, I encouraged her to take the bait, and I narrated a few responses to send back to him.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Like, catch him. Oh my God. After almost the entire evening of getting him all excited that he'd found his next victim, we ended the conversation with a selfie of us together, flipping the bird, he blocked us both. Wow, that's not unhinged. She said it's not unhinged. No, it's not, but it's good. That's a nice little bit of, like, closure.
Starting point is 00:18:59 A nice little... Teaching him and educating him. I'd say that's a one. Or we didn't score the other one. Oh, the other one was two and a half. Oh, which one? The prawns and the cross and the thing on the door. I'd say that's not quite unhinged.
Starting point is 00:19:14 I'd say that's like revenge. Yeah. This sounds like a two. She's writing the toothbrush higher than the prawns and the shoes and the crotchless trousers. Dimmus Nicky. Okay, here we go. He was heavily addicted to video games. So I took a hammer to his brand new PlayStation and every controller he ever had.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Technically they were mine anyway, as I bought them. Yeah. Would I do it again? No. Well, hammer them, I'll buy them. I would sell it and keep the money. When you're out of the cloud of like rage, you can think logistically and go, yeah, I could have just bought. I could have done with 400 quid.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I could have bought myself. Was it a PS5? Probably. But it would have felt, oh, how good would it have it felt? A rage room. You spoke back on to a rage room. I tried to take you to a rage room. Yeah, because I wasn't getting angry.
Starting point is 00:20:04 Yeah, you weren't, you weren't getting angry. That was the scary part. You were very late to the anger. I was. I was like, bless everyone. Most of you. You, that's probably the most unhinged thing that you did was like, bless him. No, dawn, dawn.
Starting point is 00:20:25 That's not a well person. You weren't well, but that was unhinged. We were all looking at you, all of the support group that you had, looking at you going, she's like, no, I wasn't. You know. But that's okay, because I wasn't, like, I've learned a lot since and uncovered a lot since. So it's a lot. It's easier to, actually, but I do think there was a very slight anger stage, but not for very long.
Starting point is 00:20:50 Yeah. The rage bit. The rage bit. I kind of bypassed, though, as well. So, which I'm quite glad of because, I mean, anger, but then anger is there to, this is another thing as well. Like, these things are good because anger is there to protect you. It tells you that, like, this is wrong. and it's that sense of justice, like you mentioned before.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Like, it's righteous anger. Like, anger is a good thing. Like, it's a good response. It's protective. And sometimes when you don't have anger, like, real anger, like, everybody can be reactive or blow up quickly or whatever, but, like, real sense of, like, anger for yourself, that's when it's a bit worrying.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Do you know what? It makes total sense. Just a different to psychology here. Anger is the part of you that loves you. That's it. Yeah. And because when you get angry, you go, I didn't deserve that.
Starting point is 00:21:41 That's not fair. And when you get some angry about what someone did, that's the part of you that loves you and is trying to protect you and trying to fight for you. And it makes total sense at that stage you didn't have anger because you didn't love you. You didn't love you. So you wouldn't be angry. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:58 And then only later when you started to like love yourself and find yourself, did you start to have the righteous anger coming and going, actually that wasn't fair. No, that was wrong. This is this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And this is what's good. Like, these people clearly have got self-respect. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:12 As they're dipping their prongs in the toothbrushes and the toilet. They've got good self-respect. Yeah. Oh, dear Mary. These are amazing. We are doing this completely blind, so we've never read these before. No, we've never read them. We've got our diary here.
Starting point is 00:22:30 We're doing it live for you. Yeah, okay. So dear Nis. Dear Nis. Really good style. Dear Miss Nicker Thief, I know someone. Okay, so she knows someone.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Is this? Oh, right. Oh, it's a man. Um, oh no, it's not. I don't. Start that again. Dear Mr.
Starting point is 00:22:49 Nicker Thief, get my words out. I know someone who unscrewed the lid of his Calvin Klein after shave and poured some urine into it. I also know somebody else. Oh, they also know somebody else.
Starting point is 00:22:59 A wink, wink. Yeah. Who, when they were left to their own devices to pack up their belongings and leave, took the passport out the drawer, cut through the photo a few times before putting it back in the drawer, then cut off the sleeve of every item in the wardrobe which was facing the back. Brilliant.
Starting point is 00:23:14 That's brilliant. Can't leave the country now, can you? Yeah, that is a good one. Yeah, and that passports are a bitch, and they're expensive. And you can't, and you can't go off on your little holiday. Admin. But the pee in the, I mean, that's brilliant, because you wouldn't necessarily notice in a, in a perfume,
Starting point is 00:23:33 you'd be spriting yourself with, with, with, Yeah, just quick spritz of urine Yeah I did see a really good one I did read a really good one once when we were putting this out there to ask people that one person I think it might be in a magazine or something
Starting point is 00:23:54 I want a blog I can't quite remember but one person whilst their exes away on holiday went to their house put crest seeds through the door or put crest seeds all through the car Maybe they had a key or something, I can't quite remember. But put cress seeds all over the thing, wet the floor,
Starting point is 00:24:11 and then when they came back off holiday, it was a whole floor of cress. I mean, that's... That's clever. That's funny. Do you know what? Rather than... Because the obvious thing is like,
Starting point is 00:24:21 we and poo. That's people go for like, poo and we destruction. Yeah. But what I would do, because I've also thought about doing this, glitter. Glitter bomb.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Yeah. Through the letter box, in a car. at home you cannot get he will be or she will be whoever you next is
Starting point is 00:24:42 you cannot get glitter out it's everywhere and it stays forever the tiniest bit of glitter yeah so I would order truck load a really good sticky glitter and I would glitter because imagine trying to hoover that out of a car you deserve a glittery car
Starting point is 00:24:57 forever glittery car forever glittery house glittery carpet glittery frick like and every time you wash your clothes you can't wash glitter out It's really, so there's been glittering your machine. Just sparkly prick. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Do you know what I mean? Like, and just be like, that is a reminder of how sparkly I am. And you'll be missing glitter in your life. So here you go. So yeah, I think glitter bomb over like Poo and Way because Poo and Wee is quite easy to clean up one quick once you find it. It's not classy either. No, so let's think better glitter is a little bit of glass.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Do I mean? A little bit of sparkle. dear Miss Nicker thief I sowed three week old pilchards It's for fish in the curtains again So I sold three week old pilchards Into an ex's curtain linings
Starting point is 00:25:45 And he couldn't locate the smell And ripped up all of his flooring And that was rather satisfying That's the fish Again with the fish and the prawns Do you know what? Oh my God, now that I'm in the mode Of like thinking about it
Starting point is 00:25:56 I know what would be a really good revenge Thinking like homeowner Thinking mature like Japanese not weed Once that Japanese not weed That you cannot sell your house You can't sell your house
Starting point is 00:26:09 Financial ruin Financial ruin I would plant Japanese not weed In the property So mid-30s It's like the most Oh my God
Starting point is 00:26:20 What would you do I'd tell you what I'd do I'd take some Japanese not weed And I would And I would And I would plant that Around the proximity of his household I would ruin the equity of his finances with Japanese knotweed.
Starting point is 00:26:34 But that, thinking outside the box, yeah. Is it illegal to plant a plant? I don't know. I don't know. I've just, with the nature green thumbs, what are you going to do? What are you going to do about it? So, I just thought that would look quite nice.
Starting point is 00:26:45 I would Japanese not weed his house. Because you cannot, you cannot sell it. It's ridiculous. So there we are. That's funny. Okay. Dear Miss Nicker thief, when I was leaving our home,
Starting point is 00:26:58 because he couldn't afford his, on, oh my God, why can't I read? Dear Miss Nickerthy, when I was leaving our home, because he could afford it on his own and I couldn't, I took every pair of scissors with me, even nail scissors. A week later, he rang me asking if I'd taken all the scissors, and I replied, no, why on earth would I do a weird thing like that? That's psychological, like, warfare.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Yeah, she was a small victory. Do you know what, when you really need scissors, you need scissors? It's a funny thing to take out of all the things in the property that you could take, just all the pairs of scissors. She took all the scissors. Or do something like take all the fuses out of all of the electrical. Yeah, there are better things than scissors, but they're each to the wrong.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Oh. She agrees, each to the wrong. What is the most unhinged thing? Oh, this is quite unhinged. Oh, go on then. Like, okay. Dear Mr. Nick Thief, after a breakup, I took my SIM card out of my mobile and swallowed it so she couldn't call me. Like that's...
Starting point is 00:28:02 What? That's on hinged. No, that's like an... That's like an eight. That's an eight. Like out of all the pictures... Out of all the pictures and curtains and Japanese knotweed.
Starting point is 00:28:12 Yeah, that's an hinged. That just cut it up. Maybe this is the guy that didn't have scissors. Yep. This is the guy that didn't have scissors. I've cracked it. His ex has come on there. She's gone...
Starting point is 00:28:22 I've not got scissors and he's gone, well, tell you what, I needed them for to coat that SIM card and I couldn't, so I just swallowed it. You do know that you cannot ring someone when you take the SIM card out. Like, you can't just make a phone call to a SIM card.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Yeah. Like, you don't need to swallow it. Like, medically, I would not advise. It's swallowing a SIM? But, no, explain the logic of that to me. I mean, it's, to him, it stopped... The ringing.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Because you just take it out and it stops the ringing. Yeah, but the thing about putting it in the bin, though, you can always put it back in. So he was actually quite clever. No, because you could just have a poo. Because that's really blocking. What? You just have a poo, and then it just comes out.
Starting point is 00:29:01 And if you really want it back, You can't look for your sim card. That's, I think, I'm going to hedge a bet, and I'm going to say that's the guy that wanted the scissors. Yeah. That's a high scorer for me. That is the most of, there is absolutely no need to swallow a sim card.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Swallowing a sim card so she couldn't call. Great. He wins. Congratulations. You've won the most unhinged thing to do after a breakup. Well done. And you win. Nothing.
Starting point is 00:29:30 A pair of scissors. Oh, this is quite unhinged. Hello, okay. I called the chairman of the board of his country, of his company and I told him and his wife all about her ex, which, who was their CEO. What? Porn habits, interests. She told the entire story to the chairman of the board. Do you know what, I've heard this before?
Starting point is 00:30:00 That's quite unhinged. I don't know if that is unhinged because. Hang on what? The ex rang up. Hang on. Say that again. So this woman has caught her ex was the CEO of a company. So she called the chairman of the board of that company and said, FYI. This is who he is.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Your CEO did X, Y, Z. These are his porn habits and his interests. Oh, that is unhinged. But do you know what? Yeah. Yeah. Fair. That's a woman scorned. That is a woman scorned. That is a woman scorned. I'd say that's about a six or seven.
Starting point is 00:30:35 That's high. It doesn't... That scores, not as high as Simcarman. No, Simcarb man wins, hands down. But calling the chairman of the board of his company. Yeah. But I like that because when I like that as a thing when people troll online or do you hate speech or bullying and people or do something hinged online and people take it and then they send it to their boss, I was like, yeah, kind of fair. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:02 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I've seen that a lot on social media where like, I've had hate before, you've had hate before, right? But I've seen other creators or other people that work online or other people that are in the public eye get abuse off these people online. And then all you need to do is go and look up. And then just like, oh, okay, so you work at so and so.
Starting point is 00:31:22 Oh, okay. And sometimes some of these people have like the most ridiculous things in their thing like awoken, be kind to everybody. Oh, yeah. It's always the ones that are like... And it's just like your actual... Characcharity. Yeah, you're actually a dick.
Starting point is 00:31:35 Yeah. And then you go on, oh, by the way, this is the way that this person is like sort of behaving. Yeah. Unmasked. And this is, this is like the face. This is your company. There it is. You're putting that, like, so yeah, like, I'm all for it. If you're going to be a knob on the internet to people. Yeah. Then you know, and you're doing it publicly.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Be happy for that to be shared and shown. Equally. Equally. I also say, if you're going to be a number. If you're going to be a knob privately, that also is free reign to tell people that. Like, if you've done something privately to me, that's also fair. Yeah, it is also fair. It's also fair. So I get, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:16 So how dare you tell people what I've done or who I am? Like, no, that is what it is. So, yeah. If you're going to be a dick on the internet, you're going to get, that she's going to ring the chairman of your company. Yeah. Like, it's the consequences of being a dick in any. in private, on the internet thingy.
Starting point is 00:32:35 Like, if people think they can get away with it because it's behind a closed door or because it's on someone's feed and it's not face to face. I was like, no, no, no, no. Yeah, like, would you say that to somebody's face? Yeah. You did it or you said it. In any capacity,
Starting point is 00:32:49 you're going to get some unhinged reactions. Wow. I really enjoyed those. Slightly feel smug. Yeah. What's the most unhinged thing you've ever done? Obviously, you nearly did the petrol
Starting point is 00:33:03 thing. Oh yeah. You didn't. Have I created a fake profile in order to stalk someone? I bet that's not uncommon. It feels like something I would have done. I feel like I would have been in a space where I wanted to snoop and did I... Oh my God, I reckon everybody's done that. Yeah. I've had that happen to me once by my very first boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Or he created a fake account. Yes, in order to test my loyalty. What? So this was back in the day of MSN, showing out of all of them. So I was on MSN, as you do every night, you'd log onto your computer and you'd chat to everyone on MSN. And this new person popped up and started talking to me.
Starting point is 00:33:48 And I was, you know, engaging with it, but I didn't really know. Turns out it was a guy who went to the same school as my boyfriend. And so I was like, oh, and he was saying that my boyfriend was cheating on me and then this guy tried to hit on me and I went I'm sorry I don't believe you
Starting point is 00:34:10 I don't know who you are and also no meanwhile I was talking to my boyfriend on MSN as well and I was telling him relaying him stuff and I said is there a guy that goes to your school called like Colin or whatever
Starting point is 00:34:21 and he went yeah but I'm not very good friends with him or whatever and then I told him did you stay with him I eventually dumped him but not I didn't I stayed with him after that, so yeah. But like, but he went and he was like, oh no, that was me, I was testing you.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Well done, you passed, like, you're loyal. Because I didn't believe that when someone came up to me and said that he cheated and also that, so that's pretty unhinged. Me, in the bin. Like, oh yeah, to go in the bin. But, to be fair, that's giving me, like, very my first boyfriend, by it was.
Starting point is 00:34:54 It was, like, yeah. We were 15 and we were whenever said. Yeah, 15, that is that age. And, I think I actually felt, I felt really, smugged myself that I passed because I was like... Isn't that mad? I had like a loyalty test. No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:35:06 It should have been the absolute opposite. Yeah, it should have been like, like, what are you doing? Red flag behavior. But that's pretty psycho. So, yeah, that is psycho. So that I'm testing, deliberately testing someone. Yeah, that's unhinged.
Starting point is 00:35:20 He scores a nine. So X, my friend, is up there with SimCardman. SimCard Man, yeah, SimCard Man. Sim Carman and Catfish Colin Yeah Pretty unhinged Amazing So one little thing that we want to do

Starting point is 00:39:59 Okay. know this feels quite poignant to what we were talking about. Go on. Surrender to sadness and you'll heal. Keep it real. I'm sad. These sound like... So what I've done is I've copied and pasted a quote that I've liked and then I've
Starting point is 00:40:13 annotated it basically and used it as like a prompt for a journal. I'm sad. I'm sad. So you just put in your notes, I'm sad. I'm sad. And that's all about I seem to be able to feel at the moment. I've lost what it is to feel something and I don't feel anything. I'm not fun to be around.
Starting point is 00:40:28 I sound like a round. Right? Listen to me. Sorry, guys. I've lost, I'm not fun to be around. I can feel it and there's a huge shift in me and my energy and the things I normally find joy and just don't spark anything anymore. But equally, nothing really scares me or excites me and I've just hit a bit of a wall and I'm a bit numb. So what I'm hearing from this is that you're feeling a lot and nothing at the same time. Yeah, it's amazing. I'm going to skip because it goes on for a long, long time. Did you just sit and write this in your notes at? Yeah. So I do this quite. often like I journal like because I'm a verbal processor right so this goes on for ages and ages about me being on autopilot blah blah blah and I tell everybody all the time to surrender to their feelings you do um we all learn from each other grow with each other and telling each other
Starting point is 00:41:14 our stories oh my god this feels really poignant today so this is me I'm a bit sad and for lots of reasons and I'm trying to move through it but also I'm just going to surrender to it to allow the anger to back off and let the healing start well not to self indeed that top and tails the whole thing I sound like I'm on the verge of a mental breakdown but I promise guys I'm fine I'm fine I'm in a good place no I am I'm in a great place you're in the mood for this but but that was amazing yeah but that's it thank you so much everyone for joining us again this time I've had a lovely time it's been quite therapeutic it has it's getting very hot in here it is all of a sudden I'm feeling very warm
