It's time for There's an Easter Egg at 43 minutes 51 seconds Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show Hello everyone listening and watching this podcast You have found yourself in the midst of a distractible trap You cannot leave until you have completed this episode and then told all your friends and family about Distractable so that they can then in turn be trapped inside the Jumanji that is this podcast
Starting point is 00:01:58 Once you start the game you have to finish it or else the monkeys are gonna keep rolling and the earthquakes gonna keep going and that Hunter is gonna come after you till the end of the earth and yes He will be your father with a mustache, but that's not how new Jumanji works at all. I don't care how new Jumanji works. I'm a new Jumanji fan. Good Lord, I need to deduct points pretty early here. What year is it? Wait, unless Bob, you were doing a weight impression. What?
Starting point is 00:02:22 Too much hair, couldn't pull it off. Can we all just talk about how like still the best scene in Jumanji is whenever the carts heading toward the hunter and he screams That scream is still like the best moment in all of Jumanji I forgot about that, but very very distinct in my mind. Just I will never forget that scream great movie, but man that scream is just well I'm writing down things because I need to keep track of points. If you've never been to this podcast before, if you have been to the podcast, skip ahead. A minute and a half, exactly. That's when we'll be back into it. Editors, make that true. No matter what.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Also, an easter egg will be placed at 43 minutes and 51 seconds in this podcast. Just stick around for it. Will it be Mark's lost OnlyFan pictures? Hmm, could be. No, no it won't. Okay, it can't be. I mean it could be, but I don't get to make that promise. It won't be.
Starting point is 00:03:19 I see, there you go. So the reason I'm writing things down is because I keep track of the points. I'm the judge of what these two goofs are gonna be doing. I need to determine who's gonna be the next judge of us new goofs, of which I will be one in the next episode. Me, pick me, I deserve it. That's a good impression.
Starting point is 00:03:36 Bob, your cowardly lion impression, please. Uh, I don't know if I have one of those. What does he say? Oh, come on pick me I piss my pants I don't remember him pissing himself straight up because he's cowardly. Does he wear pants? I shed myself. I shed myself It's all over my tail oil I'm the other guy Yeah, did you know that the the lion's costume in that movie
Starting point is 00:04:08 was actual lion pelts? That seems necessary. Well, it was the 30s or 40s or whatever it was. The writers are like, all right, there's a tin man, there's a cowardly lion, and some guy in the back was like, I'll go get the lion. Unfortunately, the tin man guy was cut to shreds by the amount of cans he had to put on and slide up his arm.
Starting point is 00:04:29 The tin man was actually made of robots. That's true. Very true. Does that mean Toto was made of dog? Yeah, he was just sewn together dogs. Yes! Yes! They got one dog that looked exactly right and the producer was like, take his face. We're gonna need like six other dogs. Let's get going here.
Starting point is 00:04:50 All right. Well, in this episode, I'm going to be the judge and I have a topic that I have shamefully stolen from one of the other contestants who I will be giving a bonus point for giving me said topic. We don't know who this is, so it'll be a mystery. Editors censor both of their reactions so no one can glean any information of who's who. And before we do that, we need to talk about our daily lives.
Starting point is 00:05:14 How are your daily lives? Very daily. I had to Google something today that, it makes sense that I should know this, but I Googled it anyway because, unfortunately, I still have my Subaru. I've been talking about this for a long time that I plan to sell the Subaru stuff kept coming up Mandy has been sick since October it's been a hard end of the year and so it's been parked outside and in the last week
Starting point is 00:05:34 Ohio has gotten just absolutely like shit on with winter storms which cars are designed to withstand being in cold temperatures and it hasn't been like in the Arctic or something. But I had to move the car today. It was in the driveway, because I like want to keep it in the driveway when they plow the streets, so it doesn't get like told by a snowplow.
Starting point is 00:05:52 I went to turn it on today and it made a noise that sounded vaguely like the oil was frozen in the engine block. Like, you know, sometimes when cars are cold and you go to start it, they're kind of like, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, boom. And then they start it. Literally, I pushed the button and it was all, and then started. And I was like, holy fuck, do I turn it off? What the hell? It ran fine. Everything was fine. It has oil. It's not like
Starting point is 00:06:24 I neglect my car. It's all maintained. It was like frozen. Everything was fine. It has oil is not like I neglect my car It's all maintained. It was like frozen something was frozen. It was probably the starter Maybe there was like something on the flywheel or the starter that was anyway I just had to Google can engine oil freeze and at the temperatures we've been experiencing No, it can't obviously because it's been above zero here. Like it's not even been that cold It's been like what teens, twenties? It was like down into single digits overnight. So it was cold last night, but it was just weird. I don't know people who live in cold places. Have you experienced this?
Starting point is 00:06:54 Is my car broken forever now? Because I literally just had to like move it. I drove it a block and moved it from one side to the other because it moved out of the way. So I'll tell you smaller because in Minnesota they get like withchill at least, they get to like negative 40s sometimes. So when I worked at United Dairy Farmers, we did ice cream, right? Ice cream is a big thing at UDF in Cincinnati. And our freezer was negative 25. That's where we kept all of the ice cream was negative 25 in the freezer. And Minnesota gets like a lot colder than that, especially with windchill,
Starting point is 00:07:22 which is wild. So I don't know what they do there to keep their inner car innards from freezing. Well, I do know when you live somewhere where it's actually cold, what you do is you have a heater built into your engine block and you plug that heater into an outlet either at your home or at your wherever you park your car so that it physically is just kept from getting too cold. I wonder if they do that there. I've never seen, I've never heard them talk about that.
Starting point is 00:07:45 But that's like a live in the Arctic Circle, live in Alaska type level. So I don't know if they do that as much in Minnesota. I don't know that they do in Minnesota, but maybe. You know, one of the benefits of an electric vehicle is that it has a big old massive battery, right? So you can run a heater constantly-ish, I guess, maybe. I'm not 100% sure if you can do it, how long you can do it. Are you saying you can have the
Starting point is 00:08:11 technology to freeze lightning bolts? No, I don't think you say that at all. What the fuck is wrong with you, man? Okay, I was reading between the lines. He's just thinking outside the box, you know? I was just pretty sure it's what you were getting at. Uh huh, okay, well no, it wasn't what I was getting at. But hey, you know, some people say that electric vehicles are bad in different weathers, but I'm saying they might be better in certain circumstances, you know, because they stay. As long as you don't need the range to be super long, I do appreciate how good EVs work
Starting point is 00:08:44 in the cold, because like, you don't EVs work in the cold because like you don't need to let the engine warm up, you don't need to really worry about it dying or being too cold to physically start. It'll work. Also, the heating stuff is very effective. I don't know if it's just because it's a new car or what. I've never had a car whose steering wheel and seat heaters are as aggressive as the Tesla it goes from like ice cold outside temperatures to like should I turn it off? Nope, this is just as hot. It's as hot as it gets. I'll be fine But it feels like it might burst into flames a little bit, but it's fine. That's just how it just works really well Wade you should get an EV. You know my cars. I had any issues with freezing. I
Starting point is 00:09:21 Don't think it counts, but I'm taking away points. I'm not gonna take away a point I'm not gonna do that. That would be petty of me to do that Wade. I'm not doing that Wow It's a new you in 2025. It is it is a new me I've had certain perspectives that are changing in my brain and which is a result of obviously me going over the hill in terms Of my age as a man. I can't wait to start Really really well, I guess I've kind of started already haven't I I got a truck now You've changed man Anyway wait, I can't I can't make any judgments upon you. Thank you. I'm gonna give you a handsome point
Starting point is 00:09:59 Well, I think that has well deserved. It's not well deserved. How about a humble point? I discovered I have a superpower. It's entirely useless, but I just thought this was really funny. I was cleaning out a drawer full of old tech stuff, and one of the things was an old smartwatch that I used to use like years ago. I don't know why I'm incapable of throwing anything away.
Starting point is 00:10:20 I still have an Apple Watch Series 2 that I haven't seen electricity for 8 or 9 years or something but I can't toss it. I keep it in case I need an Apple Watch Series 2 because you never know. But anyway, I found an old smartwatch and I was like, ah, I really liked this watch. I enjoyed using it. I'm not going to use it now, but for old times sake, I want to charge it up and just turn it on and play with it because I'm a fucking psychopath apparently. And I, the charger wasn't with
Starting point is 00:10:49 it. And so in my head, I just like chucked it in the bag and I was like, well, the chargers lost to wherever, I don't know. And then I went to bed that night, woke up the next morning and the thought in my brain was just, the chargers in that bag in the basement. And it was. I went down to the basement to a random old plastic bag, thrown in a corner, and one of the pieces of random shit in that bag was the random proprietary watch charger. And so obviously the watch is sitting right next to me on my desk charging right now,
Starting point is 00:11:23 because I'm gonna play with it later. Is that, is that like a me thing or do people just do that? Cause I literally like, I didn't have a dream. I don't dream cause I'm a fantastic or however you say that. I have the a-phant, but I like literally I just woke up and was like, it's in the bag. Oh, like it came to me. Is that a thing that normal people do or am I insane not usually no
Starting point is 00:11:46 I can't remember where anything is so no I don't get those visions if you could send some my way because yesterday I was circling around for my backpack mark your wallets in the laundry again There was a not insignificant likelihood that that was just a correct guess, but yeah But I was looking for my backpack right and I was circling around and I I thought I was crazy because I looped the kitchen 15 times looking and scanning and scanning and I'm like, I know I brought it in or at least I brought it out of my truck I know I did and finally on my 15th pass, I happen to look out the window and outside, sitting on the ground is my backpack.
Starting point is 00:12:34 I'm just- I have no idea why it's there. But there it is! In the nicest way possible, I do mean this as a friend, I would never ever fucking do that with anything I own even Even pieces of technology I despise again. This is a me thing because tons of people do this I don't know how people just like toss their phone places or like leave their phone in the car when they go to the store That's why your car gets broken into guys Don't leave your phone in the car or like, you know
Starting point is 00:13:03 Leave your laptop sitting outside on the ground or anything that is mine I'm like gotta be careful gotta put it I might still lose it but it'll be somewhere safe at the very least yeah no I'm just terrible I am awful with that stuff so yeah it was outside you did like 80% of the stuff you were trying to get done there you're very close that's usually my life philosophy is I get about 80% of what I need to do and then I shift gears completely and forget about it. Anyway, nice superpower. It's a passing grade. They're saying this.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Did I ever tell you guys whenever I thought I had a superpower? I might have told you this story. What are you at? I don't know how old I was. I was probably like fourth, fifth, sixth grade somewhere in that range. Probably younger, third, fourth, fifth grade. My mom had a house, like a little tiny ranch, very small, but at the time we loved the place because it had a pool in the back. And I remember I was outside by the pool and I was looking around and I was like, oh my God, I see things in the air that other people can't see. And I went to my mom and I was like, Mom, I'm pretty sure I can see like bacteria and disease in the air.
Starting point is 00:14:09 And she was like, what? I'm looking around and I see it. There's like a strand of it right there. And that's whenever she was like, you're nearsighted. Those are floaters. And really burst my bubble. Cause there was like a five minute period where I was looking around and I was like, oh my period where I was looking around I was like oh my god
Starting point is 00:14:27 I see it. I see it in the air just like under a microscope, but I don't need a microscope because I'm super I Love that way. I'm gonna give you a supervision point because I can actually relate to this not about the floaters because that I feel Like I knew that even as a kid But there's another thing that you can see and and I only noticed it when I was- I first noticed it when I was on a plane, right? I was looking out the window, looking at the scenery sky, right? I thought I was going nuts! I thought I was going nuts because there was thousands of them, I was just like, oh my god, they're everywhere and they're going a little flip, flip, flip, and I'm like, what am I seeing? Am I seeing my own neurons firing?
Starting point is 00:15:15 Am I seeing, like, something going crazy? I haven't figured out exactly what it is, I didn't look up in a while what the concrete example is, but you can actually see the, basically the shadow, this is what I think it was. The shadow of like white blood cells or, or certain things moving like it's either on the surface of the eye or like somewhere in the back, but you can actually see something like that.
Starting point is 00:15:36 I thought I was peering into the universe. I thought I was seeing into another realm. I thought the sky was opening up or something like this. Really ego bursting when you find out that it's not, isn't it? Mark, I'm finding the blue field and top dick phenomenon. That might be it. Or shearers phenomenon, the appearance of tiny bright dots or squiggles. That's it. That's exactly it.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Tiny bright dots or squiggles that move quickly along underlating paths in your visual field, especially when looking at a bright blue background like the sky. That is exactly it. And that gif is exactly what I was seeing. That's crazy. Okay. So yeah, that is, oh yeah, it's white blood cells
Starting point is 00:16:18 moving in the capillaries in front of the retina of the eye and blue light is what causes them to be seen. That's that would explain why when I was looking at the sky I literally said blue sky but I did not know about this because I just noticed it was always in front of like a very bright clear solid blue sky and it just so happened when I was flying is the first time that I noticed it but that's cool. Yeah you know it might have been a combination of this and the floaters I'm so nearsighted that I saw when I was laying because I was laying outside looking up at the sky whenever I noticed it
Starting point is 00:16:48 Do so yeah, it looks like little bacteria whatever and I was like my superpower what a terrible superpower, but I've got one Floaters are somewhat similar here. Sometimes whenever you do see them like in your vision Yeah, floaters are usually more peripheral than this though, right? Floaters are kind of the thing where it's like you see it right at the edge, but when you look for it, it's all, I don't want to get too into it. Usually yes, but you can have like an uptick in floaters, which is usually a bad sign because it means something is going wrong in your eyes. If you have like a heavy, heavy increase in floaters,
Starting point is 00:17:22 All right. You know what? You win. I can't deny that one. You win. Alright, and you know, Iria gets us the segue point because that's disgusting! Damn, I had small talk. What's the topic? Disgusting shit? Oh, you got small talk? Wait, do you have more? Well, I don't want to ruin the segue. Wait, wasn't that your small talk? It was a minor thing, but I started reading again.
Starting point is 00:17:47 What, like menus or? Like books. Adult books? It's funny you say that because I don't know that it counts. You're really getting into Clifford again or what? Not entirely far off. The Baron Stain Bears? No, I decided I never finished this series.
Starting point is 00:18:07 It was my favorite series as a kid, but I never finished reading it. And I was like, I want to go back and reread and just read all of it. Redwall. Animorphs. Oh. Animorphs.
Starting point is 00:18:17 I wouldn't call them adult books. No, I would say those are like teenage fiction. I mean, even as a like third, fourth grader, I was able to read it pretty easily. They're, they're pretty short books, but there's like 64 of them. There's 54 in the main series and like nine or 10 spin-offs or something. Damn. Yeah. I started reading the Animorph series all over again cause I never finished it as a kid and I absolutely loved it.
Starting point is 00:18:38 I used to be really excited whenever I'd go to the bookstore with my mom and she would be like, here, you know, I could get a book and I would get one of the new, the new Animorphs book. Cause they started coming out I think in like 1996. Now I don't know how often they came out, but there's a lot of them and I always loved them growing up so I started reading them again. And they're a lot simpler, like reading them now
Starting point is 00:18:55 compared to like some other novels you may read. It's like, they're written very simply, but like they're still interesting. The story is interesting, the universe is interesting and I don't know, just decided to read it again. Hey, there's nothing wrong with appreciating books aimed at a younger target audience. Not judging that.
Starting point is 00:19:11 I'm gonna try to make Molly really mad because Molly reads a lot of books throughout the year. And like at the end of the year, she'll show like, I read 50 books this year. And she'll show them off. I'm gonna read 64, like 90 page books that have like large font. Like Molly, I read 64 books this year.
Starting point is 00:19:27 You should start I think Molly does this but I know this is like a regular thing I like book social media you should start posting your monthly like read list and it's just like 18 Animorphs books but along with it make the caption be something really like meaningful and thought out like I don't even know what cuz I'm not this person but you can change who you are in the outside but you can't really change who you are within my name is Jake I can't tell you my last name Animorphs All right
Starting point is 00:20:09 And then shark Jake jumped into the ocean and swam after the submarine as fast as he could Animorphs a bit of trivia the first morph by one of the Protagonists in the book is Tobias turning into a cat. If that ever comes up on a trivia show, which it won't, you know. You know what? There's a decent chance I'll remember that just because that's about the most out-of-hand thing you could have told us as a trivia information right now. Well Tobias is famous for being a red-tailed hawk so you wouldn't think that the first transformation would be him being a cat. I would never have thought that
Starting point is 00:20:45 I didn't know they could change if you stay in the morph for more than two hours. You are stuck as that animal unfortunate Sorry, I know we had disgusting things going on anyway, I are ya go mark Iria. All right, so there was a post on I-A-R-E-A. Alright, so there was a post on Reddit. As with much content on the internet, that's where we turn to for all of our entertainment needs. Even though I think that Reddit is probably a place where most stories are made up and nothing matters. But anyway, so is this podcast. So, we're gonna steal this. Because someone was asking if I can pull up the exact...
Starting point is 00:21:21 Uhhhh... I... I-I-I-I closed the, I closed the. But Mark, why would you close it? All right. Okay. This post, which was made seven days ago by post traumatic cunt dis. All right. Excuse me. I don't know how else you would pronounce that other than that but um. Countess? Nope. Oh, okay. That's not what it is. Anyway, asking, do you have any weird
Starting point is 00:21:53 hygiene habits? For me and my roommates we have separate slippers that we decided to only wear in the bathroom as we don't want to be treading the bathroom floor germs through the house. Now, is that weird or is that understandable? So how does this work? They leave the slippers in the bathroom, like by the door. They walk in, immediately step into them. It's like another layer of having house slippers.
Starting point is 00:22:22 That's a very common. I believe that's a Japanese custom, but possibly in other countries as well, where you have Koreans also typically do it. You take your shoes off at the exterior door and you have shoes only wear inside. I feel like that's not that crazy. That's a level of effort I don't care enough to do,
Starting point is 00:22:37 but that's a pretty like reasonable thing to do, I think if you care about. Okay. So this is normal. Yeah. That's pretty normal. That's fine. Acceptable. If you live in a place, so this is normal. Yeah, that's pretty normal. That's fine, acceptable. If you live in a place where house slippers is a totally normal thing, that probably doesn't even stand out.
Starting point is 00:22:51 In America where people don't universally do the house shoes setup, maybe a little weirder, but also Americans are kind of judgey a-holes, so maybe that's an us problem. It's one of those things where I would like it on the surface be like, and then I think about it like, actually, that's kind of not a bad idea. So I would also, if we're only going normal or weird,
Starting point is 00:23:10 I would go more toward normal. Let's say it's acceptable or excessive. Acceptable or unacceptable. That's acceptable to me too. It's acceptable. This is perfectly acceptable. All right. So we're making a declaration. I'm going to choose to interpret that as if someone asked me to do that, if I was in their home and they asked me to participate in that. That's a good point. It's acceptable if my
Starting point is 00:23:31 reaction would be, yeah alright, and if my reaction is like, ah really? That's gonna be my judgment. I like that as a threshold. Can't be friends with them anymore. Yeah, they're like we lick out each other's ear holes and I'd be like, I don't know about that one, but here's some bathroom slippers where when you go into the bathroom, be like, all right, whatever. That's fine. Cats do it. Why can't people lick each other's ear holes? Henry has this really terrible, terrible habit where he will scratch his ear like just real slow with his back
Starting point is 00:23:59 foot, like in the ear. And he always goes, oh, when he's doing it, like just like slack jawed. And then he always, and we look at it, we're waiting for it. He'll be like done. Then licks his foot every time. Lexi does that too. It's like, why? Why? It's a health thing. It's like why? Like dogs or cats will eat the their baby's poops because they're like,
Starting point is 00:24:21 oh, is it are you healthy? Now you taste healthy. but if it tastes, if there's a problem, you can taste it in the poop or you can taste it in the ear, you know? I don't want you, I want you to stop talking. What do they do if they taste a problem in the poo? They're all, ah, shit. What will it take to get you to stop talking?
Starting point is 00:24:42 I'm never gonna stop talking, Mark. This is your curse. All right, fair enough. Okay, so I got a list here from this thread of things that people do, and we're gonna determine what is and is not acceptable as a burden to our daily lives. Acceptable or excessive, right?
Starting point is 00:24:58 Okay. One person says, I won't lay on my bed in clothes that I've worn outside the house, and if I'm getting into bed with socks on, I'll put new socks on if I've worn them walking around the house. Okay, so there's a lot of layers here that are strange. I feel like there's a couple of different things there. Let's pick it apart a little bit.
Starting point is 00:25:16 Let's just focus on the first half. Laying on bed in clothes that I've worn outside. I'll go first on that since Bob went last time. I'll say that's acceptable. There are definitely times where you go someplace and you come home. You're like I need to wash my hands right away It's like I don't know what I just sat it like if I was riding a public bus or you know I was at a restaurant. You never know your beds your safe place. I like to shower before I get into bed I could be cleaning into clean sheets
Starting point is 00:25:36 So laying on a bed with all your dirty clothes that on the outside have touched who knows what acceptable don't put that on your bed I get that I I am that. I like that. Bob? That makes sense to me. I'm going to move on to the thing I think makes less sense, which is the if you wear socks around your own home and not outside, but outside of your bedroom, then you change socks when you go into your bedroom to clean socks? I'm not saying I don't understand the principle, because I get what they're... And this, I'm assuming maybe this person doesn't do like the house slippers thing, because then it's like, well, then yeah, maybe the rest of your house has like,
Starting point is 00:26:15 you track stuff in with your shoes, if you wear them in the house, take them off somewhere specific, whatever. That just seems like a lot of effort for a small amount of actual return. Unless you keep socks at your bedroom door and you literally don't let the socks that have touched the other floors into your bedroom, there's no way if you live in this place, you're keeping that contamination out of your bedroom
Starting point is 00:26:39 in a meaningful way. Whatever little bits of stuff might have been on your socks, if you bring them into your room and lay them in your hamper or they fall on the floor or you walk into your room and then change your socks, then that part of your floor of your room has the same stuff that the outside of your room floor. It's just like the execution doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 00:26:58 If someone asked me to do that, I don't know what scenario that would be. I guess if I was dating a person and they were like, please, this is what I do, I would kind of be like, p be like, I don't know. Maybe I just won't go in there. I guess. I don't know. If I actually was dating someone and care about them, I probably would shut up and do it because that's not that important. But you know what I'm getting at. That's excessive mainly because the execution doesn't make any sense to me. Okay. All right. Fair enough. The changing clothes or not laying in your bed with clothes
Starting point is 00:27:26 that you weren't outside. Perfectly acceptable. I wouldn't do that one just to be clear because I don't care. But I totally get that. That's perfectly acceptable. Yeah. Perfectly simple. But the socks thing is a little excessive. So we're going to put that in the excessive category. A little excessive. It's not like stupid, but it's like, I don't think you're gaining a lot. I wouldn't care enough to do it I would accept that someone does it so I'd say acceptable but that one's more borderline like... maybe this person lives in in in mess and their bedroom is the only clean place maybe I don't understand their life. In squalor. Like maybe it's real muddy or something and their animals come in
Starting point is 00:28:01 just like leave tracks on the main floor they're like I don't want to put these socks. When you live in a yurt on a platform in the woods things are different. I get it but it's excessive to me I guess. Speaking of modern privilege here, this person comes home, changes into the jammies that they wore in the morning before they left the house, cook their dinner, then shower, then change into new jammies. So they have morning and evening cooking jammies, and then they have night jammies.
Starting point is 00:28:34 How many fucking loads of laundry is this person doing on a weekly basis? God damn. The jammies that they're cooking with is the same jammies they wore the night before. So you can see there's a cycle. They use jammies to finish the cycle, and then they get fresh jammies they wore the night before. So you can see there's a cycle. They use jammies to finish the cycle and then they get fresh jammies for bedtime. So they're showering in the evening. I don't know, two showers a day is another topic. Do not get
Starting point is 00:28:53 into that just yet. But they shower in the evening after cooking because they don't like smelling like cooking when I'm freshly showered. Bob, is this excessive? I understand. This is another one where I totally understand the motivation. Personally, I don't care enough to do this. But if someone did this, I don't think I wouldn't think they were crazy except for all the fucking laundry that creates. Yeah. Maybe I'm the one who's weird on this, but I am not wearing different pajamas every night of the week.
Starting point is 00:29:20 I'm not opposed to fresh pajamas. I like when you crack out, you crack out some new fresh basketball shorts and you get a nice crisp clean jammies on, but like jammies go for at least a few nights for me, minimum, if not long. Like depends how they wear, depends what situation they're in,
Starting point is 00:29:37 but seven pairs of pajamas a week on top of seven, I assume that means they wear a lot of other clothes too. So I assume that means they change everything when they go to the gym or work out, they have a different outfit for that. And it's like, I'm not into doing that much laundry. I don't want to live that life. Jesus. Okay. All right. That's good points. Maybe I misunderstood. I thought it was one pair of pajamas. So we started the night, you shower. Yeah. Put on a pair of pajamas, go to bed, wake up, change for work or whatever, go out, come back, put on last night's pajamas, cook, shower, new pair.
Starting point is 00:30:12 So each day you have one pair of pajamas, one pair of clothes. So each night starts with a new set of pajamas, but the next day you use the back aft of the pajamas for other things. Yeah, if you think of it like, you know, some people say Sunday is the beginning of the week, some people say Monday, this is the beginning of their new day occurs after showering after they eat dinner. That's their new cycle.
Starting point is 00:30:34 I don't sleep in the same shirt two nights in a row. Like if I'm traveling, I will, so I don't have to pack so many things, but I do change my sleep shirt and underwear, but like I do wear the same pair of basketball shorts for like four or five days, cause like whatever. Underwear and shirt I do change for whatever reason every night. So this isn't that different to me than what I do.
Starting point is 00:30:52 It does create, I guess, a decent amount of laundry, but I don't find it super excessive or crazy. The weird thing to me is coming home, changing into something to cook and then changing immediately again. It's like, why not just cook in the outfit that you were in, then get comfy? Because they don't like smelling like cooking
Starting point is 00:31:09 when I'm freshly showered. No, that part I get, but why not just wear the outfit you were in for the day while you cook and then shower and change into pajamas? That is a great, yeah, why don't they just wear the clothes that they had? Why do you put on last night's pajamas to cook? I kind of get that if this is a professional person
Starting point is 00:31:24 and it's like, when I was in law school, I had to wear a suit and tie a lot, right? Okay, that's fair if it's like a suit and tie or something. And it's like I only own two suits. I can't come home from work, take my suit jacket off and then like cook dinner in my shirt tie, whatever. You change, but I would just change into like sweatpants and a t-shirt, something comfortable,
Starting point is 00:31:46 not necessarily pajamas. But so if this person like wears, you know, if they're into fashion, they might wear a nice outfit every day and it might be like dry clean it only or hand wash only. That's true. It's probably super uncomfortable to cook in your suit pants. It's potentially, I could see reasons that that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:32:03 But then why, I get that they don't want to smell like they're cooking, but how much... What are they cooking that would infuse into their jammies that they couldn't come home from work, shower, change into new jammies, and then cook? What... What... How sloppily are they cooking? Maybe there's a lot of like grilling or oil or like frying oil or something? I don't know. That sound like it's gonna get everywhere. It does though. It's small, but it something. I don't know. I sound like it's going to get everywhere. It does though. It's small, but it does. I can appreciate that. It also depends on the cuisine too,
Starting point is 00:32:30 what I cook and what Americans tend to eat generally, very generally. That's a lot of bold flavors, but not always a lot of aromatic stuff, but there are some cuisines where everything is aggressively aromatic. Everything has a bunch of herbs, anything you cook, even if it's something super simple, is gonna have like really intense smell to it. And that will potentially like just soak into your clothes or whatever when you're cooking every single day,
Starting point is 00:32:58 it might happen. So my initial judgment was excessive. I'm moving toward acceptable. Sleeping in a different outfit is a little bit more laundry, but like I get it. You're using last nights to get out of your suit or whatever to cook so that way you can be comfortable and not get your thing dirty.
Starting point is 00:33:12 I'm not backing down. I stand by excessive. Even though you made the aromatic argument? The thing that for me does it is that's too many sets of clothes in life. I'm not a fashion person, so this is just something I don't get but like I don't Want to do that much laundry. I don't want to own that many clothes. I already feel like I own way too many fucking clothes I don't have a big collection of clothes. I just feel like why would I need ten sets of pajamas?
Starting point is 00:33:37 I own t-shirts which I can wear for almost anything. I wear shorts and pants would many of which have multiple applications I don't want to have that much shit in my life. That's the tipping point for me is that side of it, not the actual behavior. A lot of my sleep clothes are like one basketball shorts. I just love basketball shorts. I wear them all the time. They're the best. My t-shirts are all like old shirts I used to wear like during the day that have either gotten slightly torn or stained or faded or whatever else.
Starting point is 00:34:04 It's like, well, this is a sleep shirt shirt now my daily wear clothes become my sleep clothes over time I agree with Bob in that this is slightly excessive just slightly it's real close because circumstantial to what you're cooking and what you're doing in your life is but this is kind of applying to everyday life for everyone out there I'm gonna say it's just excessive for the average person out there. Just enough for the average person. I guess I'd agree. Yeah. Yeah. Just enough. Well, this is one that we can't really make any declaration of. It's about reusable menstrual pads. We can't make any statement about that.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Now hold on. I'm ready to dive in. Go. Let's jump in. Bob, you do it! Oh, I don't even know what the thing is. Give me- Set me up, Mark. I'll hit it out of the park. Some people say they use reusable menstrual pads when they're on their period. They're made of cloth and they're much more comfortable and absorbent than disposable pads. Plus, I like knowing I'm not contributing to extra waste in the landfill every month. I just launder them like any other article of clothing so they're clean and fresh each month. When I use them, I tip people all the time to consider giving cloth pads a chance. They're not for everyone, but I
Starting point is 00:35:11 love them. People get so dramatic and going on about how quote disgusting it is to use reusable products. I actually do have an opinion about this. I don't have an opinion about the actual using them and how they work. I don't know anything personally about that for reasons that are probably obvious. But I do things in my life where it generates, every time I do it, it generates waste. And I always feel conflicted about that
Starting point is 00:35:36 because I could have better habits. I could make different choices to where I'm not, whatever that thing is, and I'm using this disposable. I feel conflicted about that. And I totally get if you are a person who has periods, you have to deal with that because that is you can't just pretend it's not happening. There are only so many ways to deal with it. And if you care about how much waste you're generating, this seems like a very cool option if they work as advertised.
Starting point is 00:36:01 And if you can just launder them and it's totally fine. Sorry, one second. I'm just going to keep going on my rant. I also feel like and this is just a general thing, I guess. Periods are so stigmatized. I mean, as a guy, like growing up, no one ever talked about it. No one really explained it. We had in health class, they sort of explained it.
Starting point is 00:36:20 But like our bodies make all kinds of messes. All kinds of stuff comes out of us. and it's its own specific kind of thing that you have to deal with in terms of cleaning it up and what it is. It's just a thing that your body does. And I feel like everyone freaking out and grasping their pearls and being like, oh, I could never, why? It's not any more gross than anything that my body has done or than using reusable baby diapers or like I feel like there's a stigma and like
Starting point is 00:36:50 people get so easily grossed out. It's like maybe I'm the one who's out there but to me it's like if my body does it, if your body does it, if you have a period and that's a thing your body does, doesn't mean you have to enjoy it. It's not like, oh it's natural and I love it. It might be, it might be a thing that grosses you out or whatever, but it's a totally natural process. I don't understand why it's this thing where it's like, oh, don't talk about it. It's because it's a thing that I don't do and have to actually personally live with. It doesn't mean it's some horrific thing. It's a normal thing.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Maybe I'm wrong, but that just that reaction of like, that's, that's bullshit. Don't, don't stigmatize periods like that. It's just a normal thing and whatever way you can deal with it, whatever way is most pleasant for each person do that. It works well. Do it. If it's the best way that you like to do it, you should do it. It's good. Well now I can't disagree with you. So maybe look bad, but also I wouldn't disagree with you anyway, you should do it. It's good. Well, now I can't disagree with you because it'll make me look bad. But also I wouldn't disagree with you anyway because I do agree. Like I find it hard to blame guys
Starting point is 00:37:49 because we, like I said, as a guy, I don't know anything about it. No one talks about it. My mom never talked about it. Like it's never a thing. No, but I was raised by like my mom and my grandma. So I was like mainly raised by women anyway. So kind of like a lot of stuff that women deal with,
Starting point is 00:38:03 I was just kind of around. Not that my grandma was really going through periods at that point, but you know, like I had a sister, my mom, so on and so forth. I just kind of got used to whatever women needed to do, they did, and it was whatever, because I was just around it anyway. What'd I miss?
Starting point is 00:38:17 Bob made some really good points, but not quite as good as mine. Okay, all right, and that's a point for Wade. Wade didn't make any points. He's, yeah, he's lying. He's a liar. You're rewarding lies. That's a good points point for Wade.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Unbelievable. But yeah, Bob, Mark, if you could just not listen for a quick second. Yeah, Bob, I entirely agree with everything you said. Just better. Got it. Man, there's so many surreptitious deals going on. I wonder when the lightning's gonna strike.
Starting point is 00:38:44 There is no deal. Bob talked virtually the whole time you were gone. We didn't make any deals I kept answering the question. I just went on and on I just wait Are you saying this point you don't actually deserve this point? No, I definitely do because you wrote it down and therefore it's part of the written point system That's true. I did write it down. You can't unwrite things Okay. Well, that is what it is. I'll eat my hat if that comes back to bite me. It probably will.
Starting point is 00:39:10 We got another one here. I wash my glasses twice a day with hot water and dish soap. Glasses or drinks glasses? Like, yeah, glasses or drinking glasses? Glasses. Eye glasses. Eye glasses. Wash them twice a day with dish soap. Drinks glass. Like yeah, glasses or drinking glass? Glasses, eyeglasses, eyeglasses. Wash them twice a day with dish soap. Thought of just wiping the lenses grosses me out.
Starting point is 00:39:32 To them, a shocking number of people don't wash their whole entire glasses. I'm sure both of us have some interesting takes on this one. Excessive, I do wash my glasses, my whole glasses once in a while, not all that often. So you out swinging with excessive. I think that is excessive.
Starting point is 00:39:49 I clean my lenses with a wiping cloth so I can see, and whenever my glasses start to get to the point where they feel dirty, I give them a full wash. I also think it depends on what kind of brand of glasses you own, because sometimes only just washing them, if you don't dry them properly, can ruin them, rust the little screws, and make make it really horrible and it's a terrible idea probably.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Yeah. Especially if you're not drying it properly, I will reiterate that. I guess I don't know what they're doing with their glasses. If you wear glasses 24 seven and you're out digging in the mud or something or sweating all over them all the time, I guess you got to clean them more often. For me, I wear contacts so my glasses I only wear at night or when I'm relaxing therefore I don't feel like they get all that dirty all that often and I feel like if you wipe down the part that's on your ears or your nose pads and the lenses once in a while that's fine and every now and then I'm just like you know what I'll toss them under the water give them a rinse dry them off whatever not that often and especially not twice a day that is
Starting point is 00:40:41 obscenely excessive to me I don't live my life this way, but I know that some people just chuck their glasses fucking anywhere. They drop them on the ground, they take them in the pool or something or God knows what. I would never, my glasses are one of the few things in my life that I treat as I need them or I can't see shit because I'm like almost blind without them. I treat them like they're like they're my lifeblood and I take care of them. I don't leave them randomly around places but I know other people just do all kinds of shit with glasses and I get why you might want to clean them or if you work like Wade said on a hard job you sweat a lot you work with mud or chemicals or who knows what you might want to wash them. I would never do it. But if you need to wash them that much,
Starting point is 00:41:26 I would say that's maybe acceptable as long as the other assumptions I made are true. Because if not, it's fucking just destroy. They must get a new pair of glasses every six to nine months is they're just burning through them at that rate. Given that Bob wears glasses on a daily basis and if they are this anal about cleaning, I would assume they would be using the microfiber they probably use a new microfiber with every wash but given that I have perfect vision I can't even relate to the concept of wearing glasses. I have to defer that glasses wearers are so
Starting point is 00:41:59 inconvenienced that this is a necessity so I'm gonna go with Bob. I wear glasses! You don't wear glasses. Where are they? Show, pick them up, put them in front of the camera. Right now. You want me to go up two flights of stairs and get my glasses? He doesn't have them. All right, glasses.
Starting point is 00:42:11 I wear so many glasses, I have other glasses sitting behind me on this shelf. I've got sunglasses on the main floor, glasses glasses on the top floor. Oh, he doesn't even have sunglasses near him. Ah, I see how it is. I'm in a basement room with no windows! I'm in a basement too and you don't hear me not having sunglasses in front of me.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Yeah, exactly. I don't have sunglasses in front of me either. They're so perfect my eyes are I could stare into the sun all day, but you know. He even said he doesn't do it and he started off by saying dish soap, what a terrible idea. Oh, I would never do that, but that doesn't mean it's wrong. He's a glasses slob. His slobbingly glasses hygiene does not impact the fact that this is not excessive. It's a terrible idea. Oh, it's true. The only part of my glasses I ever clean really meaningfully are the lenses.
Starting point is 00:42:57 The rest of it? Just a shit nightmare. Terrible. And you probably wipe those multiple times a day, I bet. I stick my glasses up my own butt, but then I clean the lenses off meticulously. Getting the screws and the joints of your glasses wet that often? This person needs a new pair of glasses every three months with what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:43:15 There's no way. That's my argument. It was a good one against doing this. That's why I won. What the? I'm living in crazy town! He's using my arguments against me, but they don't work against me, yet it works! No, I used my arguments for me, that's why it worked!
Starting point is 00:43:32 What the f- What's the next one? So, the next one here, as we're moving on from this, is... It kind of reveals a lot of things, which a lot of these comments do. There better be a bald one so I can get even. There's not. They say, I don't think it's weird, but I guess a lot of Americans find it weird to use a bidet. I don't feel clean unless I use one.
Starting point is 00:43:57 Whenever I hear, and this is the second part which is, we'll tackle separately. Whenever I hear about people showering and scrubbing between their butt cheeks until there is no more brown on the watch rag. What? I just wonder how are you not getting all that off at the toilet? So yeah, there's there's two separate things here that are. Yeah, we'll tackle the second one separately, I think. OK, yeah, I'll take this. I'll take the softball. No, it is not weird and it is totally acceptable to prefer bidets and to use bidets whenever available
Starting point is 00:44:32 They are not universally available in America In fact, I would say they're probably not generally available in most places in America, but in your own home I think lots of people are adopting that totally fine totally acceptable. Yeah But in your own home, I think lots of people are adopting that. Totally fine. Totally acceptable. Yeah. This is an ignorance question. Are there bidets in public bathrooms in other parts of the world? Or is that in your own house, exclusively kind of set up? I'm going to look at it.
Starting point is 00:44:58 I don't know how I would feel about public bathroom water shooting up my ass. Yeah, I feel like a public bathroom bidet shooting mystery water up my butt. I would have mixed feelings about that situation. There are public bidets in most of Southern Europe, like Italy, Spain, and France, but that's pretty much the most place where they are publicly accessible. I would not be a fan of that. But yeah, but I mean, but days are awesome. And I feel like I don't even know if that's worth points.
Starting point is 00:45:31 I just want to move on to the second part of this because I would be shocked if anyone in the world who has used one would be like, ah, fuck bidets. I can't stand it. It's pleasant. I've never gotten to, I've never used one other than to cover marks contact lenses in them That is the only time I've ever used a bidet Watching us press the button. I think it was Leo who pressed the button Every toiletry mark owned covered in bidet water
Starting point is 00:46:02 Yes, good times good times. That was the funniest fucking shit. It's okay because it was home bidet water so it was fresh. It was Airbnb bidet water. It was high pressure. That got across the bathroom. Or they were like, check this out, and press the button and just that stream Perfectly went across the bathroom hit the mirror every part of the sink that had anything that mark owned was where the water hit I thought you were making a joke at first like oh you dunked by and then I forgot oh yeah that happened That did actually happen. Anyway the second get wait. I'll let you open the volleys on this one the second part of that Do you need me to reread it for you? Anyway, the second, wait, I'll let you open the volleys on this one. The second part of that. Do you need me to reread it for you?
Starting point is 00:46:48 Maybe set it up. Whenever I hear about people showering and scrubbing between their butt cheeks until there's no more brown on the wash rag, I just wonder how are you not all getting that off at the toilet? So there's every part of that sentence has something interesting. So let me start with the first real quick. I agree with Bob. I've not used a bidet, but I think bidets are fine. I think people like them that have them. And I think whatever. Second one, what in the fuck is happening during the wiping process or the bidet process where
Starting point is 00:47:20 there is just shit tons of brown between your cheeks when you're going to shower. The amount of like just chafing and issues and awfulness that that seems like that would cause to have shit between your cheeks makes me want to hurl a little bit. When I shower, I don't use a wash rag between my butt cheeks. I just soap, water, clean it out, whatever. And I don't think I've ever been like, Wow, look, it's like I'm at the chocolate factory my fingers are drenched It's soap, and it's fine. You're just cleaning yourself, and you whatever what the fuckity fuck shit is happening We're using a wash rag using a sponge using one of those little fluffy things to clean yourself
Starting point is 00:48:00 Whatever you clean them you wash then you clean the thing get that. Why is there excessive amounts of brown? Wipe! All right, well, I thought I was not gonna have anything to say, but I cannot believe that's the direction you took that, Wade. I'm just, I'm disturbed by the amount, I might have more to say, I'm just still shocked by the brown.
Starting point is 00:48:21 I think that this part of this comment says more about the commenter than anyone else in the world. I think that this part of this comment says more about the commenter than anyone else in the world. Yes. There is no chance that this person is out in the world and their friends or family or coworkers or whoever is like, man, when I shower, there's just so much extra shit between my cheeks. Why can't I can't?
Starting point is 00:48:42 No, no one does that. I've seen this trend online lately and it's a thing I would never do because I would gross myself out but reusable toilet towels is a thing a trend I've been seeing online literally it's you don't use toilet paper you use like a towel you clean it off when you're done and everyone shares them in the household. Even in that world, there's no poop left when you're done. And if there is, you're not done. That's what I'm saying, man. There should not be shit between the cheeks. This person is talking out of their ass that they're like, yeah, everyone, everyone who
Starting point is 00:49:17 doesn't use a bidet just walks around with extra fudge up their butt. Unbelievable. And they're talking about it too. Just either a liar or an absolute psychopath who believes that that's what's happening. Sorry, speak up, the shit in my ass wouldn't let it hear you. Get the shit out of your ass. I'll go left. It is.
Starting point is 00:49:44 When you use a bidet, you still wipe. Again, I've not used a bidet, but I assume you still like... Generally, yeah, you dry it off or something. Like you clean up a little bit once it's all... You don't just walk around with a wet butthole. No, you don't want that. Yeah, the weird part about this is not so much what they're saying, it's the context that they're trying to frame around their conversation.
Starting point is 00:50:04 By the way, I have scratches all over my arm this is for me cutting down trees I didn't know how to grab them properly and I was wearing short sleeves don't do that when you're when you're cutting down trees your scope didn't help you aim better? I didn't put a scope on my chainsaw just yet I am that I got that on order it's coming in there's no reason this man should have or this one whoever they are there coming in. There's no reason this man should have, or this woman, whoever they are, there's no reason this person should have caked on shit in between their ass cheeks in the shower.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Well, it's not this person, but I hate the, whenever I hear about people showering, as if this is the conversation, like, I just can't, they're walking infomercial people, I can't get the poop out of my butt when I'm showering. There's gotta be a better way. I use the sham wow. Look at the brown stains.
Starting point is 00:50:49 What you should be using. Anyway, yeah, so something's wrong with what's going on in this person's life, I think, yeah. I'm not gonna say it's impossible that maybe I'm the one who's out of touch. Maybe that's just a cultural difference. Maybe there are parts of the world where everyone talks a lot about their hygiene practices and shower stuff.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Maybe there are parts of the world where lots of people have shit caked up their butts after they go to the bathroom for whatever. I don't think that's very likely to be the case because any rational human would... Even if you didn't know, the first time you took a dump and you didn't clean yourself and then you were walking around you'd be like, oh That's really unpleasant. Oh and you'd go and you'd finish but you'd go back to anyway You'd also I don't know smell shit every time you sat down or did anything this commenter is off off the rails We're gonna go through we're pretty much done with the episode But we're gonna go through some things because I feel like people need these rules outlined in their life. There's not really gonna be too many points up for grabs here. It's gonna go quickly through this. I wanna, I wanna make some declaratives.
Starting point is 00:51:53 What's the ideal amount of showering? It could be more than once per day. It could be once every other day. How often should people shower? What is the ideal amount? For me, I shower every other day cause I've got very dry skin. And if I shower daily, it gets worse. Should you get a lotioning body wash? I use that and I actually have like dermatologist lotion, but like for some reason just showering every day makes my dry skin a lot worse. Showering every other day works for me. Showering daily.
Starting point is 00:52:20 I think like people that have really oily skin, showering daily is fine. It makes sense. And I think if I didn't have dry skin, I'd probably shower just once a day. More than once a day was only whenever I was doing sports and I would like get really sweaty and nasty. I don't know. I feel like more than once a day without extenuating circumstances a bit much. I'm basically in the same boat. Every other day is a good minimum. More frequently is cool. And if you work out for the love of God shower,
Starting point is 00:52:42 if you go to the gym shower, please, even if you showered in the morning, if you work out, ringworm and fungal stuff and all the shit that gets passed around at gyms is very real and it's not probably gonna kill you, but it's really unpleasant. Just take a shower once you're done wiping your sweat and juices all over all that stuff at the gym. And don't use your gym towel
Starting point is 00:53:02 to get the cake out of your butt cheeks. No, use your poop towel for that. Keep your poop towel. Poop towel, the community poop towel. So minimum every other day, maximum, probably two a day is normal. If you're exercising and stuff, yeah. Between every other day to two a day is a normal range.
Starting point is 00:53:19 All right, changing your bed sheets. How often should you do that? Every other day might be up for contention. If some people really want to argue for that. That's a lot. Probably the end range would be like every two weeks. Some people might push it to a month. I don't know. I would say ideally every week and realistically every couple couple weeks probably it's a little more realistic. So forget to do that a lot
Starting point is 00:53:50 I think every week or two if you're going a month on the same sheets that gets a bit much But like every week or two again, I also shower before I go to bed So you still sweat or whatever during the night so it still needs to be clean But like I feel like I'm more clean going to bed than I am at any other point during the day. Cause I'm a night shower. That's a good point. It does dictate on when you're showering. So if you shower right before bed.
Starting point is 00:54:11 More frequently than once a week feels unhinged to me. That just feels like a lot of work. Because one, who has more than like two set full sets of sheets for a bed. Yeah. Realistically. And then two. We got two.
Starting point is 00:54:24 We have exactly two. How many times a week are you doing? Cause if you do like your, your bedding, that's like a whole load of laundry. It's, it's not like you just toss that in with your clothes or whatever. That's its own separate thing. And that's like multiple loads of that a week. It's a lot of extra load. Here's something that's changed my life though, in terms of automated cleaning machines is don't be afraid of doing a small load. It is totally fine to have a half full dishwasher and doing that because it is less of a burden to empty and the
Starting point is 00:54:54 psychological burden of filling and emptying those things is the biggest hurdle for me doing them regularly. So if you just have a few dishes, chuck them in the dishwasher, do a quick, there's a quick cycle, just do a quick. Don't get tabs, get powder or liquid, so you can put just a little bit in there because you only got a few dishes in there. Then you run it on your quick cycle and you're fine. Same with laundry, it works the same way. You don't need to do those pods because kids will eat them and you don't need that in your life. They'll break into your house and they'll eat your Tide Pods. They're gonna do it. It still happens.
Starting point is 00:55:27 If you're doing a small load of dishes, you can also put your poop towel and your glasses in there at the same time and just do it all at once. Ooh, that could save that person a lot of anguish. Glasses in the dishwasher every day. Oh, there you go. That'd probably be fine. You can change your sheets every week
Starting point is 00:55:42 if you're showering a knot in the evening. You can go up to two to three weeks if you're showering in the evening so that you're clean going into bed. That's the dictation. I think weekly is ideal. I think bi-weekly is more realistic as to what happens with us. Yeah, I think weekly is pretty unrealistic for me. Yeah, yeah, fair, fair. All right, towels, showering. This is actually a novel concept for a lot of people. How often should you change your shower towel? How often have I historically changed my shower towels
Starting point is 00:56:09 or how often do I think a person should do this? What do you aspire to? I think I might've used the same towel from the age of 15 until about 27. Without cleaning it? I couldn't tell you the number of times it went through the laundry, but it was not a lot. I cause you know, you know, you know, it's bad when I used to bring my towel. Cause when I live with roommates, you keep your stuff in your
Starting point is 00:56:35 room a lot of the times, but I used to keep my towel in my room, but I would bring it with me to the bathroom and hang it close to the shower So that it got kind of steamed up because that would soften it up before I had to use it Hey, whatever's all stiff and rock hard you're trying to try Well, you know it gets a little scratchy after a while when you accumulate you seasoned it you got to really season it gotta really season it. Oh, it's like an iron skillet. Yeah. Yeah, it's like the seasoned coffee cup. I developed my own personal musk that was irreplaceable
Starting point is 00:57:11 and was only acquirable through the use of my towel. It's like the vampire guy who takes his kid's blood, except for it's you taking your own recycled younger you skin cells. Sure, yeah, it's like, it's basically stem cell treatments at that point. But anyway, what I was saying was, Oh, I wash my towels like one to two, every one to two weeks, like everyone else does totally.
Starting point is 00:57:32 But do you have a, you don't have a new towel with every shower? God, no. I think I have a fear of laundry or something that other people don't have, but God, that'd be so many fucking towels. Even if I only shower every other day, towels are big. They take up a lot of laundry space. Trying to minimize the laundry loads here apparently is my main concern. Didn't realize I'd be so laundry focused, sorry.
Starting point is 00:57:53 Depending, I'm either a new towel every shower or every two to three tops. What? I will not use the same towel for more than like two or three showers. Why? But I also like use that towel, like after I wash my face, then my previous night's shower towel
Starting point is 00:58:08 might be the one I use to like wipe my face, or like after I brush my teeth, I might use that instead of my hand towel. Yeah, those are all normal towel activities. Yeah, but after I like wipe my face, or like wipe toothpaste on it, so I don't wanna use it to dry, so then it's like, okay,
Starting point is 00:58:20 well now I need a new towel to dry the next time I shower. So it really depends on what all I'm using it for in between. I'm more towards Bob on this one because, simply because... 15 to 27 years? Not that far, not that far. Oh, okay, alright. But just because I also am of the mind that if you are stepping out of the shower,
Starting point is 00:58:41 you are as clean as you are going to be. If you did your job right in the shower all you're doing is getting the water, the basically filtered spring water that's emanating off your body. Filtered spring water. If you did your job right in the shower so the more I learned about my Korean side, the more I learned that Koreans are an obsessively cleanly people in some regards. My family was over before Christmas. They were over. Let me tell you, that laundry machine was running 24-7.
Starting point is 00:59:14 God! If they went out and just, they would throw in the clothes that they had, worn that day, and they changed into the jammies at night after showering, that shower also was running 24-7 and then they would right before they all left the entire night That laundry machine was running and the buzzer was on loud because they would get up in the middle of night when the buzzer went off To change it out and put new clothes in there because they needed to they cleaned every single clothes that they had in their entire clothes in there because they needed to they cleaned every single clothes that they had in their entire Suitcase even if it wasn't worn even it had just been washed
Starting point is 00:59:53 Then that might have been my mother because my mother loves doing the laundry and making sure it's really clean They also don't take their shoes from outside inside is fastidiously cleanly people for the most part I don't completely understand why people would want to do that. I just couldn't live like that. That's a lot. That's a lot of work. For me, I guess, because of how I live, it's like that's not going to accomplish a meaningfully different level of cleanliness to me. The world is still kind of messy. Outside still gets inside. Like, that's tough. But I get it. I get it. And especially as like a cultural thing, if that's how you're raised, then obviously that's how you're going to live.
Starting point is 01:00:28 But that's just I fucking hate doing laundry. I will leave it at this, though. People don't use the convenient machines that do work for you enough. The most important ways are the dishwasher and the laundry machine. Throw shit in there. You don't have to scrape off your plates nearly as much as you think you do. Just chuck the excess in the trash or the laundry machine. Throw shit in there. You don't have to scrape off your plates nearly as much as you think you do. Just chuck the excess in the trash or the disposal.
Starting point is 01:00:50 That's a whole episode. That's a whole episode. I have to. I have to clean my plate so thoroughly. You don't have to. No, it's not a dishwasher thing. It's a me thing. Modern dish soap is enzymatic.
Starting point is 01:01:02 It actually makes it less clean when you do that. It's a problem. Modern dish soap is enzymatic. It actually makes it less clean when you do that. It's a problem. Modern dish soap is enzymatic, which means it needs foreign material in order to activate. Your dishes will taste soapy if they're too clean when you put them in the dishwasher. It's a whole discussion to have. Yeah. Yeah, we need to cause. Because I'm no, I'm with you, Wade. I am with you, but it's a whole thing It's a whole thing I remember in when I was a kid the commercials are burned into my head of someone being like look at this fucking dish So they they show the CG in they put a camera in the dishwasher. You see like it's fucking lasagna plate
Starting point is 01:01:39 Yeah, oh Perfectly clear. I know that in my head that it does that but I also have trouble putting it in there completely dirty I go like that's not right. It is a machine meant to clean I can't I cannot put chunky plates in a dishwasher, man It's gotta be I would rather hand wash all of my dishes than put something dirty in the dishwasher like that You gotta get over it. You gotta you gotta you think about much time you'll save That's like taking a sponge bath right before you get into the shower. Yeah, I'm okay with that. And as much as I preach it, I still also scrape. No,
Starting point is 01:02:11 yeah, I'm a hundred percent a hypocrite. I'm right there with you, Mark. But the faucet is running the entire time I'm loading dishes and I know I'm like wasting so much work while doing that. It's on hot. Like I go, oh, I make mac and cheese and that pot is shiny clean before I put it in the dish. I cannot even leave the cheese in there. I can't. I know. I always soak pans before I put it in the dishwasher.
Starting point is 01:02:35 I soak them for hours and I'm like, God, the dishwasher doesn't soak them. I'm sure it doesn't. I have a pan soaking upstairs right now. I think there's a pan soaking in my sink right now. It's happening We need to go away from enzymatic soaps We go back to the good old days where we had to clean our dishes before I put them in the dishwasher Just let me clean everything in my life with borax powder Mmm. Now they're just making slime out of it. All right, we're done. Can you read my points first? So Bob?
Starting point is 01:03:02 Okay, you lost a point new Jumanji fan can't abide by that I stand by it. You did get a bonus point because this was your idea. So that is good You got a car startgasm point because the noise you made when you started your frozen car you oh This is your super power charger seeking missile. You you really know where your charges are Iria, which was the segue point that's funny. Oh I gave you a separate segue point that says plus segue I area can be funny on its own I think I meant to do a segue point and I somehow wrote segue point afterwards But it's written down and there's a plus. You know what give them the two they're both it was funny All right. Okay. All right. It was funny. I laughed
Starting point is 01:03:46 I told you to give him the point and then it was also a segue I would want two points for that. Therefore you should give him. I got you aromatic king glasses slob The meat of the matter for getting the context of something the real question and then soften up your towel that Who doesn't like a nice softened towel after a crisp shower, you know? I'm all for like steaming your towel, man, but not the 20 year old one that hasn't been washed. Okay, it was like 12 years tops. Oh, calm down.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Wade, you got a point for like an old Jumanji, the great reference with the scream. That scream is so good, dude. That scream is... You got a handsome point, you're looking particularly good today must be your by daily showers You got a supervision point for having the same bacteria vision that I do You got anamorphs for kids for adults to anamorphs for kids you got licking ear holes You got a good point point For having a good point you got a point for look ma. I'm at the chocolate factory Wait had so many gross ones today
Starting point is 01:04:54 That was a close match with the negative point Bob You had plus nine minus one that puts you at eight and that puts weight at seven The bonus segue point only prevented a tie round Oh damn it we could have been marked with a solo episode So it would have been a wheel which we are up at 12% for a reminder for the one man show I'm sorry. I let us down. Hooray Someday that will be tripped and it almost was today. That's my bad at everyone, but Bob congratulations tripped and it almost was today. That's my bad everyone. But Bob, congratulations!
Starting point is 01:05:30 Wade, you saved us. Saved me from the one-night show. I saved Bob and I from the real work having to write it. I know, who wants to write stuff? Well, that's what you have GPT's for, am I right everybody? Everyone loves Chappie J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J- speech versus them. I haven't won since the episode before last so I was feeling like it had been a long time but it's good to finally be back here you know if I go too long without winning it's just sad I guess I don't like to be sad I'll let Wade be sad that's fine by me thanks Mark for keeping it fair and thank you to all of the listeners today because arbitrarily I favor you right now. Go listeners. Boo watchers. Winner out. All right. Loser. Hey loser here. But loser starts with a W watcher and that's why you and I are in this together. I'm team watcher. Wade loser, both start with W for wins, because we're the real winners somehow. I thought it was a great episode.
Starting point is 01:06:29 I thought Bob Mark had a good idea, and I thought that being the only one not on the end on the idea, I had an advantage. Mark stepped away, I gave myself a point, really thought I put myself in the driver's seat, and I did. Unfortunately, the driver's seat was right between some shit-cakedaked butt cheeks and we crashed.
Starting point is 01:06:46 I'm glad you were here to watch it. Watchers, loser's speech out. I have run out of recycled paper. I'm gonna need to actually get some for the next time I win, which will inevitably be the episode after Bob's. For reasons that are so obvious we can't even say why. Thank you everybody so much for listening. Remember your obligations and hope you enjoyed the easter egg at that time stamp.
Starting point is 01:07:10 That really changed your existence. And also... No merch. Ever. Ever? Question mark? The new distractable sniper knife. We could start a distractable weapons division, you know?
Starting point is 01:07:24 We could just... Life is ours to choose. We could make a distractible weapons division, you know, we could just Life is ours to choose. We could make a very hard pivot and just start manufacturing Tony Stark level weapons. I was gonna say can we be like the Stark Industries of Oddcasts we'd probably like hammer tech, you know Yeah, I was gonna say I feel like we we would feel more like the hammer tech role But then you could dance real good to the fun song in the airplane hangar right before everything goes to shit. That's real cool That's true. That's true, and he still made money He still sold weapons so so long as we get the American government on our side and the military industrial complex I think we'll be a okay
