Right? Is that still hip? Yeah, that's a cool reference. That's a very cool, timely reference. Yeah, anyway, I have a very funny topic for today. I'm excited about it. I'm hot about it. I'm spiced up.

Jazzed, even. Other things I'm feeling about it but before we get into the official topic we we do the small talk uh so you know how's it going you like starfield uh win that's your whole that everything thank you i do i am enjoying it very much uh playing it and streaming it saving it and loading it quick saving it other than starfield anything else in your life i like thinking about playing starfield when i'm not playing it uh like food and long lays on the couch said that one i like not taco that's a weird way to say that you hate tacos anyway mark hi what make some small talk you got anything in your life other than hard drives and mac minis oh yeah heading out

town a little bit um by the time people listen to this, I'll already have been out and in. Just always life, living life on the edge, always on the go. You know, you got to have the hustle to get the muscle. You know what I mean? If you want to earn big, big bucks like I do, you got to always be on the go.

Movie stuff is what I'm trying to say is movie stuff. Oh, okay. Oh, the movie, right. movie stuff is what I'm trying to say is movie stuff. Yeah. I'm still, still working on that thing. Oh, the movie. Right. I had a thought and this, no one cares. I don't care.

I'm talking about it. Solid dime has a Twitter, right? Oh, come on. No, I was thinking like, if I,

I'm the company that makes the 60 bajillion terabyte, whatever drive thing. Yes. Okay. And I'm like, I know I have no value to them because they sell the like server companies, but they got to care a little bit. They got to care a little bit.

They'll offer you $100 for a promo. They send it out to review sites, right? There's like, there's some storage. Yeah, but they have to give it back. No, I don't think so. I saw a follow-up video by this one review site, and they still had it. They still had it. I was like, come on.

Let me have it. Let me have two. I want two. Can I get two? Can I get three? I don't know. Just in case one fails. That seems greedy.

I got to be honest. What do you mean? Can I have three? Make it four. Even numbers are better. Four or six. Do six. No, if I had to buy them, I'm going to buy one extra because I'm going to raid them.

I am sure that if you offered them a sponsorship or you bought their product and then gave it a good review, they would let you. Dude, I've tried. I've tried to go up to companies and be like, I will literally pay for the product. Just get it to me. You know, usually when something's out of stock, right? Or is like, is it back order? Stuff like that. I'll be like, hey, I need this for a thing.

Usually film equipment and stuff like that. I'll be like, hey, if I'm totally willing to pay, I'll pay extra. Can you do me a favor on this one? And it's just like, no. Dude, I would let you cut in front of me in the lunch line. If I was waiting for something and you offered me like five bucks to cut in front of me, I'd be like, yeah, go for it, dude. I know, right?

I know, man. And I'm not trying to scalp them here or get them scalped or whatever it is you're offering the lunch lady the lunch lady's got like two slices of pizza left there's a long line for it you're getting in front of all the people in line you're like lunch lady i will give you three extra bucks for that pepperoni right now what i try to do it for is like a camera lens right i try to do it because I know that we're going to film something and I'm like, literally, we only are filming it on this day. Can I get it early? I will pay

extra. And I'm like, that makes sense. Why can't that be a thing? I'll pull out all the stuff. Do they not realize I have a lot of subscribers? I could get them a lot of attention. You know people are filming in France right now and here you are trying to cut in front of them to film in America. No one's filming right now. Except me and trying to cut in front of them to film in America. No one's filming right

now! Except me and the people that have approval to do so! I think lots of people are filming. I just don't know what they're filming. They're just making it up as they go. No, I checked YouTube. It's just Mark. He's posted two videos and it's just him. It's just me. We all know it.

We've all taken a hiatus. We all know this to be true. If we know it to be true, then it must be. So I guess it's true. That it must be. That it is. That it do. If it is, then it must.

And if it must, then it definitely is. Because it must. I do have to defend myself a little bit here, though. Mark said if you want to be rich and famous and all that like him, if you want to be lazy and poor and live one paycheck in front of the other at a time like me trust me lay on the couch wait for the content to make itself and you will find my level of success it's out there waiting for you did that did that do what i thought it would no i don't think i can't imagine what you thought that would do yeah what did you think that would do can i have points oh that you

want points for that you guys think you deserve points? Well, guess what? I didn't say anything. I'm almost plum out of points. I've only got one left. Okay, if I offer you two points next time I host, will you give me your remaining points now? I'll pay extra. I'm not going to interrupt his bit

that he was clearly building up for dramatically. I'm not going to undercut it. I'm going to let Bob talk, okay? I'm going to let him go with his thing. He was built. I could feel going to undercut it. I'm going to let Bob talk, okay? I'm going to let him go with his thing. He was built. I could feel the currents in the air. Why don't you go to r slash moon, Mark? You know what, Bob? I'm not going to do. I'm not going to get in the way of

that storm. Don't make this. Don't use this finger at me. Don't make that. I feel that there's something great coming my way and I would never, I would never interject my dumb thing in the way of it you're interjecting my thing of interjecting his thing right now oh wow a double interjection doesn't cancel out it might it could you don't know he switched fingers which i appreciate look

what i was saying was i'm almost out of points so we're gonna have to use what we've got and all i've got is one point but it's a very special point because it's a golden point are you gonna make it uh am i gonna wait what your point it's a clever joke dude god well guess who doesn't have the only point in play through this episode. Mark, you get one point. Yes! One golden point, but you have to earn it if you want to keep it, Mark. That point is fungible, okay? The point is not yours permanently.

Because we only have one, it's going to go back and forth, and the holder of the golden point at the end of the episode is going to be the one who wins because it's the only point that's available. It's like Hot Pocket or Hot Potato. It's like Hot Pocket.

Hot Potato. We got to juggle the point. I never know when you're intentionally doing something like that so I'm going to believe that you did that intentionally and you're trying to play it off as a funny joke. I don't believe you and I ain't going to laugh. Wade, I believe you. That was very funny. Mark keeps the point for now. Thank you. I don't think I want the funny. Mark keeps the point for now. All right.

Thank you. I don't think I want the point. I think the point is the hot potato is gonna explode. That's not gonna work. I'm just gonna leave it with Mark and he's just gonna win the game then. No, wait, he'll win? Yeah, I said that out loud.

The person holding the point when the episode ends wins. I thought you were lying. Okay. Just because you said it was like hot potato doesn't make that true. I said some things and you just started thinking your own thing and didn't listen to the rest of the things I said. You really got to listen to the whole sentence. You're really getting away from my strong suits here.

I'll keep them short, Wade. I'll keep the sentences short. Or will I? Unless anyone has any updates and or news and or whatever that you really, really want to talk about, I'm ready to move on to the topic, boys. I can talk about my camera situation. What about your camera situation? They won't give Marky the special lens early so he can't do his camera thing.

I was just going to say I like the camera I have, man. I got a new accessory for it. Oh, no, that's cool. Sorry, no, hey. Oh, I like the new camera I have. I got a new accessory. Come on, man. Don't do this to me. No, what is it's cool. Sorry, no, hey. Oh, I like to do camera. Oh, come on, man. Don't do this to me. No, what is it, Mark? Tell me about it. What camera is it? The Komodo X.

I got the Komodo X. The Komodo X. What is that, a Blackmagic? No, it's a Red. Oh, it's a Red. Okay. Yeah. This probably doesn't matter to a lot of people, but, you know, for some, they actually are interested in this. If you are looking at the Komodo X, it is a great camera. I think it's actually like a fantastic camera. It's very expensive.

Don't get me wrong. This is a $10,000 camera. It's like a cinema camera, right? Yeah, it is a cinema camera. But this camera, you can film like pretty much any movie you want on it. Like if you want to get to the level of like movie making, you either go with the Black Magic Pocket Cinema, which is a good camera for, I believe, two and a half thousand. Yeah, two or three thousand

right yeah but the komodo x is great because it's a 6k camera with like it's a uh super 35 and it's global shutter so there's no rolling shutter when you move it that's fancy it's got some nice built-in features the image quality is fantastic um and i just really like it and i got a uh speed booster for it just recently can you get me one was that like so it can read right faster what speed does it boost a speed booster is is is a type of lens adapter that you put on the front that actually because it's a super 35 it's a smaller sensor slightly still a big sensor so if you have a full frame lens it'll like a magnifying glass put the full frame image, constrict it down so that it can more can fit on your smaller sensor. It effectively, this is not literally simplifying, but it effectively turns your Super 35 into a full frame image circle, not a full frame camera, but a bigger image.

And you get more light in there. It's like a double bone you'd think there would be downsides and there are like slight downsides but it's like really it's just like all good yeah so what it has some kind of warping or or bokeh or something yeah traditionally there's a little bit of fringing on the edges edges and like it's not as sharp but the one i got is actually quite good um it's very reliably able to do it it just has a very small gap but the lenses i have with okay so i've got a nice spot on my floor would you be willing to send me one so i can have it in a box nearby no oh that would be a very expensive thing to put on your floor

are you a dragon do you just hoard gold on your floor well have you ever seen me and a dragon in the same room at the same time? The answer is probably no. Anyway, anyone who has a Komodo and is like, what did they make the Komodo X? Or looking at the Komodo X and was like, it's barely better than the Komodo. It's great. It's a good... You know, the Komodo is also a dragon. It's a lizard

actually. Well, it's called a Komodo dragon. Not called Komodo lizard, you know. It's not entomologically accurate well i don't know i've never seen one and a dragon in the same room at the same time well you got me there well mark still holds the point even though he just talked about cameras and things and i'm sure half the audience was all one of these days i'll be able to talk about my passions and things that i enjoy okay yeah you know your passions are the moon to Bob and I.

I like the moon. Well, we know you don't. No, I was going to say, I like the camera stuff. I thought it was interesting. I just definitely know, like you said, a bunch of people were all, I'll just go listen to Brain Leak then. Oh, you know what I should have talked about being a hater? I should have been a hater of Premiere and Adobe in general.

God, I want to be a hater of them so badly. But that's just because it's awful. that's because it's terrible i love that they're putting out advertisements on like tiktok and youtube being like get your content elevated to the next level and you you got built-in effects in premiere and it's just literally someone struggling through the premiere's dumbass program you can change it to blue literally that was a that was one of the ads i saw you got all these colors and i'm like god the more people discover da vinci resolve the better like it is if you're editing on premiere switch to da vinci it is actually not as harmful it's not as arduous as you would think not as harmful there are better features in davinci it's better it's just better you'll

love yourself to all you content creators out there now you know also it's a one-time cost and not a subscription yeah yeah the subscription thing is extra stupid and it's called davinci what resolve resolve you can buy a subscription to it print it out and put that on your floor with it's not a subscription buy a license whatever yeah is, and put that on your floor, Wade. It's not a subscription. Buy a license, whatever. Yeah. Is there a box that I can get with it? Probably old versions had boxes or something. I don't know.

Anyway, boys, my topic. I have a topic. Oh, yeah. And I was chuckling it up because I'm excited about this one. And it's not at all stolen or borrowed. But remember how we did Wade's secret words? Well, today's episode is going to be called Bob's Confusing Words. Okay.

It's a totally original topic. The title being similar is just coincidence. It has nothing to do with what you did, Wade. Call my lawyers, but okay. I have gone and through a series of quick and definitely factually accurate Google searches, found some words that I want you guys to tell me the meaning of. Without Googling. Without Googling, without looking it up.

I want you to invent. If you know the meaning, you could tell me the meaning. You could steal the point, I bet, if you do that. But if you don't know the meaning off the top of your head, guess. Sell it to me make me believe this is a this is kind of like a game this is kind of like uh what's that like balderdash almost or lie to me this game where i know the correct answer but i'm not really concerned about you getting the correct answer i'm more interested in who can sell me the best meaning for these words that i found okay all right i'm ready that's the whole game and don't forget we're playing we're playing golden point rules

google.com uh-huh uh-huh i'm not gonna check to see if anyone's cheating so feel free to not do that and we're gonna use the honor system but uh mark has the point which means that wade gets first crack at the the definition here and the first word I would like you to tell me the definition of is sesquipedalian. Sesquipedalian. Sesquipedalian. So, edalians are usually little round things like medallions. Quips are funny words. And se, like sesquatch, probably means big.

So, sesquedalian is big quippy words so it's whenever you are make a quippy comment but you use a really big word and catch people off guard uh do you are you ready mark would you like to go in succession or would you like me to issue judgment i don't know if you were about to say that is alarmingly accurate or that is the stupidest utterance i've ever heard in my life uh i'm gonna hold you know what mark go i'll hold judgment till the end you won't know a sesquipedal what was it sesquipedalian sesquipedalians so saskatoon is a place uh-huh um dallian is like medallion. Sasquipedallion makes me think of Equestrian. Sure.

So it's horses from Saskatoon winning awards. Very funny. And as I was going to say, Wade's definition, though not technically correct, was shockingly close to being actually correct really really originating from 17th century latin and originally meaning a foot and a half long this this word modernly means it describes long-winded words such as sesquipedalian like bombastic yeah but it's more of a negative thing yeah bombastic is not quite you're being you if you're being unnecessarily sesquipedalian i don't think that's a good thing

i think that means you're being bombastic's not good bombastic has a has an essence of being loud and boisterous and like showmanship that's like more of a personality trait than it is like fight announcers are bombastic because it's exciting and they're loud. He's looking something up! He's looking something up! I'm looking up bombastic. I thought there was a negative connotation to bombastic. Well, it can be negative, but it's like. High

sounding, but with little meaning. It's when you use a big word for the sake of using a big word to make yourself sound more important than you really are. Pompous. Well, pompous is definitely negative. Yeah, that's more what I Pompous. Well, pompous is definitely negative. Yeah, that's more what I think. Inflated, pompous. These are synonyms. Pompastic is not the same meaning as pompous.

Literally high sounding, but with little meaning. That's pretty negative. That can't be the only definition, though. Yeah, that's definitely not the only definition because that's not how I use that word and I'm pretty sure I use it correctly when I do. Okay, here we go. Marked by or given to speech or writing that is given exaggerated importance by artificial

or empty means. Well, yeah, but that's when applied to writing. A person can be bombastic. It's also used like in not just writing. If people have been calling you bombastic and you're taking it like a compliment, I think that's on you, boys. I didn't say it was a compliment. I think we're right. Bombastic can be negative

but also can be positive. I don't think it's exclusively a negative term. Find me a positive definition. I very much appreciated how bombastic the announcer was at our wedding because he got the crowd really hyped when Manny and I came out for our first dance. William was a stylish witty roguish and at times bombastic extrovert while

james was comparably reticent and was admired even by his philosophical adversaries as a sensitive listener if you describe someone as bombastic you are criticizing them for trying to impress other people by saying things that sound impressive but have little meaning such as being vain and bombastic well the dictionary is definitely wrong on that one and i was going to give you the point wade there are i'm not saying it's entirely positive i'm just we're just not saying it's entirely negative but it is no it can be an accurate description there are some things that are accurate descriptions without being negative connotationally. There are tons of people that think they have lots of meaning that don't. I agree.

And also, words are used for their intention to apply the meaning that is accepted and that is understood. Oh, so if you use it wrong, then the definition's wrong. That's not what I said at all. Yeah, actually. That's totally a thing. Yeah, look up literally. Do you think literally is changing? People use that wrong too. That's just

because they're dumb and don't go to school. If more people use it in the way that they choose, you become wrong. People literally use it exactly the way they mean to. Literally. Alright, my bad, boys. I guess I'll take the l on this one that i've only been proven correct on i must have stole the point back you're wrong and the dictionary is

wrong but you hold the golden point after that round thank you yeah thank you yeah wade wade has wade has the point sorry no you didn't say wade well you did triangle of fairness so yeah he was googling he was googling i googled bombastic after my turn he googled googling at all is is verging on breaking the rules but let's move on to the next one and you know what mark you get to go first this time oh man whoa what are you listening to this for wait who's talking you know you're driving a 2024 ford escape with available Alexa built-in, so you can change the music.

When it comes to shipping internationally, can I provide trade documents electronically? The answer is FedEx. Okay. But what about estimating duties and taxes on my shipments? How do I find all the... Also FedEx. Impressive. Is there a regulatory specialist I can ask about? FedEx. Oh. But let's say that... FedEx. What a... FedEx. Thanks. No more questions. Always your answer for international shipping. FedEx. Where. No more questions. Always your answer for international shipping.

FedEx, where now meets next. I would like you to tell me the meaning, the correct meaning, not the dictionary meaning. Thank you. Of the word nonplussed. Oh, God, I actually know this one. Well, I guess maybe I don't. I've only heard it being used. So I think it probably means something.

You think it means something and it doesn't mean that because I thought I knew it as well. And the actual definition was very surprising to me. Yeah, I I think and maybe it is completely opposite what it is, but I think it's like not bothered by something or to have something kind of not affect you in a way. That's kind of the general understanding that I have of it. But I feel like that's wrong. But I'm going to go with that. Good answer.

Good answer. Wade, what do you got? Non-plussed. So at the end there means you're describing something like I am non-plussed or it is non-plussed. Plus usually means adding to. Non means not. So not adding to, not having added to, you'd think would be the definition. But the true answer has nothing to do with those words. Nonplussed is actually whenever you're taking

footsteps and you leave no footprints behind you. Don't tell me he's scarily accurate to the definition. Do not say that. Interesting. Interesting. Why don't you leave footprints behind you? Just out of curiosity, of curiosity no reason well there could be a variety of reasons either you're uh lightly stepping hence not pushing too hard into the ground and or the ground is firmer than the stepping that you're doing on it why are you leading him to the why are you leading him to the answer what do you mean leading? I gave him the answer. No, no, but I'm not talking to you. All right. Well, let me just say once again, and I don't mean once again in relation to the last round. I mean, as in general, once again, Wade could not be more wrong.

Thank you. That is not at all what this means, but I found that very entertaining and interesting. And I will say, Mark, that you used it in the exact way that the definition I have describes as the most common misuse of the word. People commonly believe that nonplussed means something like uninterested or unfazed, unbothered. The actual definition of nonplussed is bewildered or at a loss of what to think, which is confusing because that doesn't really, from the word itself, you don't really draw that. But because Mark was

so, so generically wrong, and Wade was so hilariously wrong, Wade holds on to the point. God damn it! You know, you can be bewildered as to why you leave no footprints. You're wandering off aimlessly. I'm gonna bombastic my footprints up your ass. know, you can be bewildered as to why you leave no footprints. You're wandering off aimlessly. I'm going to bombastic my footprints up your ass.

Mark, you're the most bombastic person I know. You better guard your plus. I'm going to non all over it. You don't seem non-plussed at all. You're extremely plussed right now. I'm so plussed. Plussed out of your mind. Let's go look at the moon.

Hey, does either of you guys know a lot about ancient greek mythology or wade does what a nerd right what an idiot he likes greece i mean i know some things about greece from philosophy but like not a lot about mythology no well that might help you here i do like greece but i don't know anything about it so i'm at a loss but i would like wade you go first. I would like you to tell me the definition of the word agistopia. Agistopia. Okay. A lot of times topias are either different like governments or like ways of forming functional society type things, or they can be mental things, right? Like dystopia, dystopian mindsets or something. So topia, topia.

Agastopia? Agastopia. Okay. Agus, I think of like witchcraft. So Agastopia is a tribe of witches that have not found their calling in Greece. So they've actually left and gone specifically northeast of Greece, where they have formed their own Agistopia, if you will. Surprise!

Oh wait, Mark, it's your turn. Hi, yeah. It's a nice garden because agricultural and topiary is what I think of. You think of agriculture? Agriculture and topiaries? I like tapioca and agamemnon.

So I'm gonna go with a nice garden. A nice garden. I feel like he partially copied my answer there. I mean, topia does sort of conjure that. I wish one of you had gotten it right, because I like this one. But also, this one is probably not in an actual dictionary. This word first appeared in the book titled Depraved English. the book titled depraved english uh agastopia expresses fascination love or infatuation with a particular part of the human body so it's another word for fetish it is it is yeah similar

to fetishism but it it has a distinct although i can't exactly tell you why it's distinct or how it's distinct there's a distinctly separate definition according to this uh article that i found but but yeah you you could have an agate you could be agastopic sorry i should have said a nice bush is what i meant to say in my answer if you really think about it i'm gonna give you credit here mark but i'm also gonna give myself credit because garden can evoke like a garden of eden feel and you know who was naked in the garden of eden the snake adam and Eve or whatever. And the snake. So there was nudity and obsession,

which got them in trouble. However, witches are also known to dance around naked in like the pale moonlight. And like, they put like eye of newt and dick of frog and cauldrons and things. That is a harmful stereotype. I can't believe we're hearing that. Is that a thing witches are known for naked

nudity yeah that was one of the things being naked in the wilderness i thought witches were known for melting when you dump a bucket of water on them and not being invulnerable to flying houses oh those are 20th century witches from specifically wizard of oz i think okay but um no dancing naked is definitely like doing doing um immoral acts like that. Being naked, that's a witch thing. Man, Wade is just making it. So I stand by my answer of a nice bush. Both of our answers can have nudity involved.

I'm just throwing that out there. If you see what Wade's talking about, he's actually circling right back around to my answer. They could both have nudity involved, but you didn't even need a second round, Mark, because I loved your answer. Simple to the point, a nice garden. Plus, there's a double entendre in there somewhere. Yeah, the original Greek of garden stance is also bush. Wade, if you could hand the point to Mark, please.

I'll flick it at him, because I don't agree. Wham, perfect catch. Man, I can't believe you flicked the point all the way across the whole country, right into Mark's office. Well, I'm pretty strong. Bam. Perfect catch. Man, I can't believe you flicked the point all the way across the whole country right into Mark's office. Well, I'm pretty strong. Hey, you know what? Brevity is that, what's that saying about brevity?

Brevity is the something of wit. Brevity is the epitome of wit. That's the one. Epitome. Brevity is the author who writes, if you're brief, then you sound really way smarter than if you're not brief yep but that's not very bombastic of you guys uh i'm i'm nonplussed good one mark i appreciate the simplicity and you get to go first for the next word wait why don't you just go sit down i'm gonna take this one i am sitting down i think we're all sitting down yeah uh mark please tell

me the meaning of the word hypothecate. This one seems obvious. Does it? All right. Well, there's two different things here, right? There's hypothesis and there's hypotenuse. Both of them have hypo. Hypoallergenic.

Hypodermic. Everyone draws the same conclusions of what that means. We all know. Hypo. What was the rest of it? Hypothecate. apothecary is a medicinal hypo is inside maybe probably hypotenuse hi hypo oh no hi how much time we got there's not a timer buddy i'll let you get there say what we're all thinking mark i believe in you oh hi polo oh h there's no timer but i will arbitrarily stop you from answering if you don't get it out so i can't go to the end of the episode all right okay

there's no filibuster in this world all right i'm gonna guess i'm gonna go with the basic that it's to make a hypothesis in a bombastic way that's pretty reasonable if you're gonna make a hypothesis they don't have a word for that if you're gonna hypothesize a hypothesis you're probably gonna hypothecate it I'll hypothecate with you baby can you not I don't like that

well what do you think it means Wade okay I think hypo means either big or like under. I know, right? So, under-ecate. If you think of words like masticate, that's chewing. If it's under-chewing, it means when you swallow too big a food. That's what Mark used to do.

Mark was a big-time hypothecator. I loved hypothecating. You know, that's actually when snakes unhinge their jaw so that they can swallow a rodent whole. Clearly, they're hypothecating. You know, that's actually when snakes unhinge their jaw so that they can swallow a rodent whole. There are there are clearly they're hypothecating. Yeah, that makes sense. I see that. You want to know what it actually means?

Well, I already told you. I already told you. This one confuses me and I still don't understand the origin of it. And for some reason, I didn't take the time to research that. Hypothecate means to pledge money by law for a specific purpose. So like under contract. So an example would be a person going on an adventure, hypothecated half of the equity of her home to pay for the charter for the

adventure. That's Mark. And I basically, if you combine our answers, we said that. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. Well, I like that. I like you did. I could see that both of you together, if you take what you all said and as a one big

whole thing. Yeah, you're right. You're both right on that one. Can we cut that point in half? I think both of you get to hold one side of the point. And for now, we'll call it a draw. Okay. Just reach, reach out and get half, half.

Wade's grabby over here. I like how you're holding it in the most uneditable way possible. It's like, but a horizontal coin. Here, let me put the... Look at what Mark is doing. I can't. I have to click to zoom in. His hand would be in front of the thing he's holding.

Not like this. Here, I'm holding it. Look, I'm holding this thing. Will, edit it in. I'm holding it. Look at what I'm holding. Just do this. Just do this.

And just do this way. I pledge allegiance to the flag. I hypothecate this point. holding it look at what i'm holding just do this just do this and just do this way just i pledge allegiance to the flag i hypothecate this point i hypothecate after this point to each of you unfortunately it's indestructible so one of you is going to end up with all of it but that's okay because after we've hypothecated wade is going to tell me what it would what it means when we impignorate impignorate okay uh m like impala uh-huh is part of a car name yeah that's definitely a car car first i think impignorating is whenever you are farming and you give up on farming so you ignite the entire thing into flame and then you go buy a new car

with the insurance money and start a new life. I've never heard someone describe it. Ignite it into flame. I really like that. It's very poetic. Thank you. Good, good, good. I like that. Surprisingly something. Hey, Mark, what does it mean?

What does impignorate mean? It's when you're mad at your Uber driver and you're trying to tell someone in another language not to give them a good rating. You go, impignorate. another language not to give them a good rating. You go, impig. No rate. That was the level of me, stupid dude. You just diverted to a caveman

speech to solve that word. Impig. No rate. Bro, can you rate me five stars? It would really impig. No impig pig i love when the definition of the word is just breaking the word down into smaller words hey if that's not how language works then what are we doing here why are all those letters in that order if the order of the letters doesn't mean something that's what i'm saying can you both give me five stars me yeah m pig no right

it could be it could be yourself or your your partner true yeah no it's such a versatile word a uh a mighty struggle ensues and the world is almost destroyed but mark ends up holding the entire coin for himself i uh protest what does it mean what does it mean oh uh you're gonna like this it means the same thing as hypothecate so so technically it doesn't mean exactly the same because hypothecate means that by law you pledge money impignorate is the same though as like uh to mortgage something or to pledge money or like pawn something mine involved money in getting money it did kind of but mark's made me laugh a bunch yeah and mine had you know still had to pay for that uber but no rate hey is that that's better than a one star so i mean is it is that

better how does that work on uber is it but is it worse to not rate or is it worse to one star somebody i think if you don't rate it'll just not include it if you worse to one star somebody? I think if you don't rate, it'll just not include it. If you rate a one, that's bad. I would imagine, yeah. That's like pretty... If you're unhappy, that's kind of a nice thing to do instead of ruining someone's five star rating. Especially if him pig.

Yeah, well, impig one rate is the worst thing you could possibly say. Impig rate one? You pig rate one. Impig, no rate. Mark, such an innovator. An innovator of language, an innovator of letters, just an innovator of everything. Thank you. Do I get compliments?

I like your foam on your wall, Wade. It looks really good around the posters like that. Can't wait for you to finish it. Thank you. That speaks a lot about my character. Appreciate that. Well, it's okay, Wade. Mark gets to go first.

Don't worry. You're welcome. Yeah, this is going to help you out, though, because Mark's probably going to lead you to the meaning of this one. Because I bet he kind of knows it, but I bet he doesn't actually know. Okay, alright. What does the word gentacular mean? Why do you think I would know

what this means? I said I don't think you know what it means, but I think you probably have kind of an idea. You seem like a gentacular kind of guy. It's when you look at your bro in the shower and their genitals are just spectacular. Dude, bro, you're looking gentacular today. That was literally going to be my answer, not the shower part. Fuck!

This is when you post your tasteful nude online hashtag gentacular gentacular god damn it you both went to exactly the same thing well wade like i said mark doesn't know the specific definition so he led you down the road but now you have an opportunity to go all the way there so wade that's Mark's definition. What does gentacular mean? You tell me the correct answer, Wade. It's whenever your vascular system and genital system combine, and they're just very gentacular. And all of a sudden, you got urine pumping through your veins and blood pumping out your dick.

I don't think your bladder's part of your genital. Well, it is if you're gentacular okay weird because you know i had a good answer and then it was stolen explain how i stole it from you how did i steal it you probably went to r slash wade wade's answers and you saw where someone posted the answers from this episode yeah after you got so sick of r slash moon you went over to r slash way's answers does r slash moon even exist filled with moon rage you cheated r slash moon sorry wade mark literally took the correct answer out of your mouth uh by which i mean neither of you got it right gentacular it means uh relating to breakfast so you can have a gentacular cup of tea in the morning

with your breakfast because it's a breakfast tea. Or you could have some bacon eggs with maybe some gentacular toast on the side. I hate our language. It's the British people, man. Tell you what. This is not stuff that Americans came up with. I don't even know if that's

true. These words all strike me as either very old like old english type stuff or very british gentacular tea right try that again yeah no do that again i like that i like that gentacular tea uh i like the first one i like Go Cockney. Go Cockney. Excuse me? You heard him. Right now? You do Cockney. Oh. Jem-tock-a-la-tee.

That's Cockney for you. Sean Cockney. He got it. He got exactly what you meant, Mark. I thought maybe he just got the name wrong. He said... Sean Cockney. wrong is that what that means when they're talking about people doing a cockney accent is that because it's shot the shot the infamous sean cockney accent Gotcha, get your back. Ha ha ha.

Ha ha ha. Oh, I think the title of the episode should just be Sean Cockney. God, Wade. You get the point for that. That was so smart, Wade. No! You get a mid-round special swap. No! I did lead him there.

I led him right there. God damn it. there you set it up you threw the softball and wade hit it out of the park oh no oh but that's all the time we have right oh no we got plenty more words oh shit uh like this one but it's okay wade because you get to go first on this one okay okay this what would tell me tell me the meaning of this word new dis new distortion new distortion new distortion i don't know if i'm saying that right i gotta be Tell me the meaning of this word. Nudist-ter-te- Nudistertion. Nudistertion. Nudistertion. I don't know if I'm saying that right.

I gotta be honest. It's based on a- Whenever you grow up without formal education and you eat the food prepared by nudists, you're getting nudistertion, or whatever you said. Nudistertian is the word new distribution that's what you that's when you are um taken care of and you get all your nutrition from nudists so it's new to you stertian yeah but it's like whenever you're all removed from

formal society so there's no like proper educate it's like whenever you have to educate and grow off the land kind of thing like you formed your own little society okay off off the grid so it's very off the grid nudist nutrition interesting i'm gonna go down a different path can you spell it for me cheater nudistertian n-u-d-i-u-s-t-e-r-t-i-a- n nudistertian that's that's that was so unhelpful i thought it was gonna be like okay maybe it's n e w something something no it's it really does that's that's it this is one of the american ones it's nudistertian it's when you got a new radio station in town hey you listen to that new to your stertian oh that's not the correct answer i'll give you that one uh okay it sounds like desertion in a way in a weird way it doesn't it doesn't i don't like bob's face it doesn't sound like distortion at all no i'm just enjoying your you're on a journey and i'm not saying if you're going the right way or not yeah you're going n-u-d-i-u yes of course no i'm trying to think of any word that is spelled that

way with i isn't no that's ui radio killed the new to you star oh my god you guys see that new song in the new year? Uh, fuck, uh, what did Wade say? I don't know, what do you think? It's when you're, uh, what is it? Off the grid and you're eating from nudists. Yeah, fed by nudists off the grid. No, it's dumb. It is not that. Uh-huh, okay.

It's everything else that's not that. Oh, literally everything excluding what I said. No, it's when he got a new anything and you're like, it's my new anything. It's new. It's my new... This is my new...

Have you seen my new... It's when you gotta do a thing but you don't know how to pronounce. Exactly, that's what it is. It says, oh, what is that? Oh, that's my nudie. My nudie. You know, my nudie. It's what?

It's sternian. It's a sternian. Oh, yeah, yeah, you sternian. You've had like five minutes and this is what you've come up with? Yeah, yeah, you like my new insertion. Insertion. My new insertion? You like my new insertion answer my new insertion you like my nude insertion can i just say can i insert a tiktok update at uh 40 minutes into an episode always always there's

this guy he's like an older guy and his wife and his daughter who's like a like in her 20s daughter like adult daughter just make tiktoks of him trying to say tongue twisters and he's the funniest dude he just can't do it but like he always they'll be like say near far wherever you are and he'll be like ah i can do that i can do that near near near far we're never near near near near wherever you far but and he'll say it he'll be like i said it and the ladies are like no and there's just a bunch of them where he's they're just like increasingly ridiculous tongue twisters and the guy is like king cake crap crap crap cake king cack in the cupboard dude tyler used to get me with what was baby bumper buckle buster baby bumper buddy but a buckle see it's

tough it gets you. Baby Bumper Buckle Buster. Yeah, saying that fast got me. Baby Bumper Bubble Buster. Baby Bumper Buckle Buster. Baby Bumper Buckle Buster. Checked out update, over. I like how concise Wade's answer was,

and it sounds totally reasonable. Mark really went on a whole journey. Unfortunately, the word nudistertion, it refers to the day before yesterday. Of course it does. So obviously. Yeah, I got the nudistertion just yesterday. That's what the nudist groups called.

They're called the day before yesterday. They formed a whole nudist nutritionist band. I bought this brand new, the day before yesterday, this nudist nutritionist. I got it mark's answer is is just like hilariously wrong and somehow somehow strikes me as more wrong than yours wade well that's because he didn't even give an answer he just said the word he's like that's the definition but where no but where he landed is this just you're new to you that's so useful that's so

useful that's such a useful word uh i think mark mark grabs the point mark wait it keeps hold of the point who had the point he had it i'm taking it from him oh mark steals the point back so the more unstable and irrational we go with this the more we get point okay the words are not going to get less stupid so feel free to surprise me with your answers we are running low on time but we have a little bit of time left. All right, Mark's first this time. Mark is first, and I would like to hear your definition for the word choir. Not choir of people who sing.

Choir. Q-U-I-R-E. Choir. Like the word a choir, except without the uh part. Just choir. Did you say that like it was a hint or something no that's not a hint i'm just trying to describe accurately to you what the word is because it's weird because it sounds kind of like other words but it's the word choir i'll give way the obvious

one thanks uh-huh and i'll say this is a trick how is this a trick it's a trick it's a trick right it's a trick the trick is you don't know what this word means tell me what it means yeah that's the trick this is like a board game every time marcus handed the dice he's like this is around where i don't roll them it's candy land i should be holding candy not dice no i'm not stupid you don't roll dice in candy land you psycho exactly see he's onto something oh wait do you roll a dice or do you draw cards? I've never played Candyland. Oh no, you roll a die but it has colors on it. Is that how that works? I haven't played Candyland in such a long

time. I haven't either. I just assumed there was dice. Wait, you're just helping me stall for Mark. You don't want this to happen. Mark, what's the answer? Uh, it's a gaggle of spires. Gaggle? It's a choir of spires. It's a choir of spires. It's a choir of spires.

You got a lot of spires. You got a bunch of them. You got a choir of spires. I, you know what, Mark, you know what I'm going to give you? I'm going to give you the coveted. That's surprisingly close. What? It's not at all correct, but it's surprisingly adjacent to the correct answer.

And I love that about it. I love that about you, Mark. All right, Wade. What is the word choir mean? Okay, I think choir, I think of a shortened form of quagmire, which is the horny dude from Family Guy. I thought of quagmire too, but I didn't want to say anything. He's stealing my answer.

It's clearly your less horny cousin. Less horny cousin. It's just a choir, your less horny cousin. What's the horny cousin? It's a quagm's the horny cousin it's a quagmire i always thought you were really more of a quagmire but turns out i was wrong you're just a quiet little choir all right well of course i know you're all just playing along of course we Of course, we all know that a choir refers to either 24 or 25 of something. Excuse me? It's not a dozen.

It's not a few. But if you need 24 or 25 of something, you should ask for a choir of that thing. I need a choir of sugar packets for my coffee. I like it sweet. Can you put a choir in my car? Just give me a choir of sugar packets for my coffee. I like it sweet. Can you put a choir in my car? Just give me a choir. So you could have a choir of Les Horny Cousins. You could have a choir of Quagmires.

You could have a choir of choirs. But yeah, something feels just very close about a choir of spires. I do see where you're going. I wouldn't give me the point on that one no well that's luckily for you that's the other thing i was gonna say is despite the fact that i appreciated how how close that was i liked wade's answer better all right thank you mark could you gracefully hand the point i should have told you that it's actually kind of a magnet type situation. Oh, wait, did you just reach up, Mark? Well, no, I was putting my glove on so I could reach now.

All right. No, yeah, it's a metaphorical point. There's a choir of things in here, Mark. Where's the point? Mark's hiding a choir of points in his gullet. He's got new distortion points in here. Hey, these are next week's answer points. What the hell?

All right. Wade, you get to go first. This is a good one week's answer points. What the hell? All right. Wade, you get to go first. This is a good one for you. I think you'll get this one right off the bat. Okay. Please give me the definition of the word titty nope. Titty nope. All one word.

I can't imagine putting two things that sound like that together. My brain is struggling. It is spelled T-I-T-T-Y-N-n-o-p-e titty nope all i know is titty yep uh it stems from titty yes please uh which is a descendant of i want titty so if we're going with titty nope clearly a titty nope is in an animate object that uh is born out of pain and struggleful labor. Not like birth labor, but like you forge it. Okay. But it can't be a living thing because no living thing would ever titty nope.

Clearly, you'd have to be dead inside and out. The nope is what makes it inanimate. Got it. And the titty is just to affirm the fact that it can't have been living or it would be a yep. Interesting. Interesting. Interesting. Surprisingly, not close. But Mark, go ahead.

Yeah, it probably originates from some southern state. And it's like a colloquial word for egg salad or something like that. I literally think that that's where this one goes. Like, you want to help in a titty nope? Literally, it's probably like titty nopey. You want some titty nopey? Tell me I'm close. I gotta say, in spirit, you're right next to it.

This is one of those words that originated from a particular place. It's not the South. It's from, I don't know, the culinary world, I guess. A titty nope is the scattering of crumbs and or debris left on one side of the plate a few drops of of wine that stay in the glass when you're done drinking it i know why because somebody was really bad about finishing their vegetables and the way that they were encouraged was they were told finish your crumbs or titty nope and then they finish their play they clean their plate what kind of weird like role play is that uh it's called dinner play have you ever no wait what was the breakfast word that we learned earlier genticular that's genticular titty nope genticular

titty nope i gotta be honest i think mark takes that one for me. I liked it a lot. That one was close. That one could be a toss up, but I'm going to give it to Mark. But does it really matter? Because we have one more word and whoever wins this one basically wins the whole thing. It's like a college basketball game during March Madness. The only part that really matters is the last 90 seconds. Whoever gets the last possession, they're probably going to win unless it's an absolute blowout. But this is not an absolute blowout. This is a one point game.

This is an edge of your seat. Scream for your team. Yeah, no one's ever had more than one point lead the whole episode. We've had two ties. Holy unbelievable. You count zero zero. I am going to give you one more word and I will give you a hint about this word. And who gets to go

first for this one? Mark does. The word is ulotricus. And my hint is that I, myself, am an ulotricus gentleman. You gonna spell it? Spelled U-L-O-T-R-I-C-H

Nah, that's enough. That's enough. You can stop. Oh, it's O U S. Not just U S. O U S. Eulotrichus. Does it stand for handsome? Oh. Oh, you. Oh,

stop it. Go on, though. Oh, okay. So, is it So, is it... God. Is it a particularly wide urethra? What a way to throw that out on the internet. Guys, my urethra is like triple normal width. I'm Eulotricus.

Fucking Eulotricus over here. Bro, you Eulotric? Are we fellow Eulotricus fucking eulotricus over here bro you eulotric are we fellow eulotricus right now yeah that's all i got i have no idea so what's your official definition of the unusually wide urethra that's yeah that's what i love it okay good wait what is what does eulotricus mean and remember i am a eulotricus gentleman okay you're not saying you and mark you're not saying me and you you're specifically saying you from the three of us and you don't don't say anything i'm taking that as a hint and i'm going to build upon it so something you have that we don't there's a lot of those i we you and i wear glasses mark had corrective vision so

that's nothing to do with the eyes keep talking it out keep talking it out yeah okay so uh i used to be clean shaven you don't have a beard right now i have double but you have some stubble mark has more of a beard so it could be beard related uh you have a baby could be baby related can't believe you bring that up i think what this comes down to is ulu ulu ulu it's like a loop loopy curly you've curly hair you're a curly you're a curly man all over you just have such curly loopy hair you got a curly urethra it's a spiral is that your official answer no i'm gonna go with yes is that your actual answer no well you know what they say, Mark. People who are Ulo Trichus don't want it, and people who aren't Ulo Trichus wish they were.

Oh, God, it's gotta be curly hair. It's curly hair! Ulo Trichus refers to people with curly hair! Yes! You gotta be shitting me! You being an Ulo gentleman, I knew it was you and not the Wii. What else

is different? Lots of stuff. What do you mean what else is different? No, we're all the same. Wow. If you didn't look that up, that's impressive. That is incredible. You know how I got there? Ooloo makes me think of a loop. Yeah, we heard that.

That's what it sounded like you thought. That was the determining factor. You were all Ooloo, Ooloo, Loo. Yeah, because I totally believe that's how your brain works. I 100% am willing to take the L on this one. That is un... We got a whole list of words, and that is the one time either of you got the answer.

I will say Mark was pretty close last time, because he said something like food, egg salad. It was food crumbs left over. That was close. You guys were very close a couple of... A choir of spires was pretty close. I had one that wasn't too far off, I think. Sesquipedalian.

That one was close-ish, yeah. Oh, yeah, no, long words. That's right, and you were pretty close on that one. Well-ish yeah oh yeah no long words that's right and you were pretty close on that one well i started strong and i ended strong that's where it matters unbelievable wade steals the point back and after a full episode of me just being absolutely cacoraphophobic i'm relieved to say that we have a winner and he did did an excellent job. And with one actual correct answer and several hilarious, basically correct answers, pretty much. That was fully correct. It's just curly hair.

There's like nothing else to it. The definition I have is refers to people with curly hair, literally. Damn. Ulotricus. I wonder if I heard... I had curly hair as a kid. I wonder if I've heard that before, like in my subconscious. Probably not.

I probably just thought ulu sounded like a loop. Anyway, your bonus word was cacorapheophobia, which is a fear of failure. But I didn't fail because this episode came to a stunning conclusion. Good win, Wade. Please give your loser speech, Mark. Loser.

Oh, this is where I would cleverly weave in every word from the entire show into one magnificent speech that threads everything together in a wonderful way. I can't remember a single word from this episode. Agathotopia? I'm gonna go play with my new dis- We learned nearly a choir of new words today. Have we talked about genticular titty nopes?

I was nonplussed by Wade Sesquipedalian exploits. I hypothecated and impignorated. Oh yeah, no, go ahead, Mark. Sorry. Will, make that me. Do AI, Mark. Have you ever heard of the ship of Theseus? I still haven't heard that.

I want to hear that. We worked hard to get you to sound like you were saying those words ai ai has come a long way ish all right wayne winner speech well i would give you a bombastic sounding speech that people apparently think is a good thing but instead i'll just say thank you bob for a fun episode and i can't wait till i'm in control of the points next week titty nope all right uh that is the end of an episode i still can't believe you got low trichus i just had to go off what i could see and i could see your face your hair your glasses and it's like i mean i gave you both the head i just feel bad

for mark because i feel like i gave that one i get the last only one that mattered i gave it away but that's on me you pretty much did i would have never guessed that if I didn't know it was something to do with you. I have to wear that shame for the rest of my life or until we stop recording at the very least. And I will. But that's it. Make sure you check out the merch. Store.stripefulpodcast.com.
