Starting point is 00:00:00 i finally the short king i can appreciate them they fit perfectly on screen here we go welcome to a brand new episode of see you next tuesday if you're new to our feed this isn't the episode you really should be starting with you should go to yesterday's episode but i'm wrong actually if you want to listen to this episode you should go to last week's episode yeah but am i wrong and then you can play along with us and get live updates bifocals megan if you're watching on i was doing that just for you and yourself if you're watching on spotify you can see us video version we look good we're in the same color family as you is yours green or yellow it's brown but it's like it's got i was gonna say it's got like a unwoven with like we look like um like a faded
Starting point is 00:00:55 desert sunrise like it's so like sandy sandy is a great word for that yeah so dusty don't do that one because that just makes my eyes water you're allergic to dust i am and i can feel that i need to vacuum this room speaking of you should just put your uh filter in there oh yeah suck it all up i thought you're gonna say room but and i said that is so kind of you to assume that there is floor space for the room but i would never assume that i'm talking about is stuff everywhere yeah it's basically what you need to do is clear everything out and i say this is somebody that is in the midst of clearing everything out take it or yours um and just make it a walk-in closet with your desk in there no that's what i want to do but i like i need to figure out where to hang
Starting point is 00:01:45 the clothes and well that's why you make it a walk you just get rats and put them in there there's so much wall space I need to hang some racks on the wall I think I don't know we'll figure it out I do need to eventually figure this room out because it is useless it is quite literally useless
Starting point is 00:02:06 I mean it's serving a purpose let's just make it more organized I didn't say there's no purpose of this room I said this room is useless it has a purpose is it doing anything besides that literally the opposite you can't say that something is
Starting point is 00:02:20 useless and then say it has a purpose it has a purpose it is useful for storing things it just needs to be stored in a organized fashion and again i say that as somebody that has one two three four five closets that's all filled with junk damn that's a lot of closets i know and they're deep closets no they are you can walk into all like all of them i can actually all the ones except for the one into this one you've never been in this room this is the workout room so you haven't like it's just a little because i was gonna say i could step into all of these closets yes you can but yeah so i'm in the process i'm slowly but surely getting there has it taken me years yes yes and will it take you years as well yes of course because you've
Starting point is 00:03:19 been there what two years i can't talk about that because i've been here three years so like like we haven't even set up our bed frame okay that's a little extreme but we did have a bed frame and then we we wanted to tell it we got a new one but we have to just like fix one thing on it because we got it vintage and i haven't fixed it yet and so we were like oh we'll just like swap it really quick and we'll do it soon and then we just need some liquid nails honestly no what we need is liquid slash putty wood and then we're gonna like even it out because one of the posts at the bottom i'm not on the ground but like that goes against across the no no like it's not functional it's like aesthetic wise there's the cap of it it's not like it's a
Starting point is 00:04:06 decorative cap and i was like we a corner got chewed off by a dog and so i was like we just need to like patch that i just want to say right now you're doing your bifocals things and it's definitely not for me anyway so this is what episode 134 and we're going to talk about who was wrong first we have megan goes on an insurance rant one percent said i was wrong 99 said i was not wrong uh i would like to give a wee bit of an update for people so uh i think i talked about how I had my, I also had my, um, telehealth appointment and I was like, didn't know that it wasn't going to be covered either, but I was like, you know, assured that it would definitely be, you know, obviously less than the $1,400 bill for the nasal endoscopy and the in-person
Starting point is 00:04:52 appointment. And even some people were like, oh, my insurance, even if it's out of network, they cap telehealth appointments, like $150, $200. And I was like, okay, tell me why i get the bill 500 it costs just as much to do an in-person appointment as it did for the telehealth appointment but i don't understand there's so many just like telehealth companies that you can do an appointment with that you would have got the same results that are 30 that's what i'm saying i'm like what i don't understand what do you fucking mean and i ended up i saw this tiktok of this guy who his daughter had to get in uh had to use an ambulance and when they initially got the bill it didn't have their insurance on it and it was like i think it was
Starting point is 00:05:35 like five hundred dollars or something and they were like oh five hundred great now let's just like they don't have our insurance and they said the insurance and then it came back being like fifteen hundred dollars and they were like what and they're like well you know california has a law that like and i don't it might not have been 500 but like this is true that california has a law that you were uninsured there's a cap of what the cost they can bill you for an ambulance and the guy was like okay but if i have insurance it costs more to take the ambulance like what what do you mean and they were like well that's just like you know it's the law and he was like okay so can you remove the insurance he goes no sure because you have insurance he goes but why do i
Starting point is 00:06:13 have insurance if it's going to cost me more for an emergent like that makes no fucking sense and it doesn't make sense and um yeah so i will also be fighting that bill but that does mean that before i was like you know i'll eat the cost for the next like telehealth appointment i have with my doctor to go over the results of the urine test no i will not now that i know i will not be spending that money um well you can always sell your piss and then make the money to pay for your appointment no i want to sell my piss and make money to like get a cute cowboy carter outfit like i don't want to sell my piss like mods kept being like i'll cover the cost like you know whatever you need and i was like oh i don't know how i can stress this enough to you babe i am not
Starting point is 00:06:55 paying this like you you can drag me to jail i will not i will not pay this like i'm at the point where i'm getting so stubborn i'm gonna be like you should get this me for free like i don't even want to pay anything you can't even reduce it i'm paying nothing i refuse at this fucking point it's on principle if you want to know what megan's talking about go listen or go follow her on tiktok about selling her piss because do you have an offer here's the thing everything that we do is in supplement with everything else so you got to be connected on all fronts to know what's going on we don't have time to repeat the amount of people who are like wait i missed something and i go check the other so i i can't there's too many there is too many anyways someone
Starting point is 00:07:38 said because i did include a gorgeous photo it's not my favorite one no but it's a recent one and yeah yeah the one that's my favorite one is from the same the smart shoot the same photo shoot no he's like actually smiling and i'm like light up my life i like the one with the eyebrows too where he goes really and i'm like oh got me all tingly get this fanny flutters um and someone said i just can't get over how beautiful he is i'm shaking in my boots this is crazy and i agree wholeheartedly i just love that we got not only do we get a an icon a universal health care fuck the billionaire icon he's also fucking gorgeous have you heard the rumors about him having a sex tape yeah and i i really hope that's not true because i can't imagine being in a worse place like i think in
Starting point is 00:08:33 general i before would have ranked imagine your sex tape gets leaked while you're on a plane with no wi-fi imagine your sex well they're saying it's on only fans so therefore it's meant to be out there but who knows i don't know i haven't seen it so i don't know no i don't believe the rumor i don't believe rumors because i'm gonna tell you right now just like the court system innocent until proven guilty there's no evidence of this tape so i'm just saying if there was i just know that i would have been scented already expeditiously from i believe tiktok would have already had it up totally and then like you can like think about people in our own lives i go if this was true they would have this would have been in i would want to facetime
Starting point is 00:09:25 immediately yep then we have someone who said although i'm thankful in my adult life the issues that i've had with it insurance when it comes to insurance have been very minor obviously you're not wrong the more i realize insurance companies aren't really there to help you and are more more of a way to pay more money and possibly avoid having to pay even more money if shit hits the fan is really stupid and i hate it yeah it is just like there's zero logic to the system which is why it feels so asinine and they can't explain it because they there is no logic to the system someone else said i've been through three insurances in the past four years because my employer keeps changing my carrier i'm exhausted yeah megan is so not wrong i could rant about the
Starting point is 00:10:03 american health care system forever but my personal quote-unquote favorite example of it's failing in my 2020 in 2020 my best friend got a preventative double mastectomy and reconstruction because she's at brca2 positive she'd been going to oh braca that's how you say it braca2 positive she'd been going to all of her pre-op appointments all seems good four days before surgery she was altered alerted to the fact that her plastic surgeon was out of network and they were trying to say it was a cosmetic procedure and that the closest in-network doctor was one who specialized in rhinoplasty it took them literal years dealing with insurance to get it covered for a mastectomy also in 2020 we were 23 that's fucking tough
Starting point is 00:10:37 when mega began ranting about being stuck on hold it transported me back to 2020 when this one time the call dropped twice and i had to and i was stuck on hold for four hours the music on the hold waiting still haunts my nightmares the one good thing that came out of being on hold waiting was my appreciation for metal scream on music i've always been a pop girly but dealing with insurance calls got me into metal that is funny i will say i think everyone needs to adopt cvs's old music because it is like when the beat drops it's literally like like and like moths when i'm trying to get my meds really goes i could call i could hear that song again i'm like okay very sweet well he can call and track down my um uh inhaler inhaler prescription because the doctor
Starting point is 00:11:22 sent it but like they sent two and i wasn't ready for the second one yet oh and then i think it's gotten lost yep so you can send it back and track mine someone else said megan thank you this is so obviously not news to anybody but still needs to be discussed at length i haven't been able to get a pap in over three years because i can't find a provider that will take me without being pregnant i just paid four thousand dollars out of pocket for dental work that needed to be done because my insurance made a change between when i had the initial dental consult and when i went in for my procedure so i was only covered for annual cleanings by the time i had to pay it's insane and i stand with you luigi is my president this is why so many americans were quote unquote rooting
Starting point is 00:12:00 for luigi i use quotes because murder is wrong but we understood his motivations i first of all we don't know if he did i don't think he killed him we don't know no what he did there's really nothing he was eating food when they picked him up so sorry i didn't know it was a crime to love a mcdonald's hash brown lock me up officer um is there video of him doing it no no also i have to say i think we're profiling men with thick gorgeous eyebrows and i do think that's also a problem um and so yeah and like also i don't think murder's always wrong i don't that's what i was about to say murder murder there's a show called how to get away with murder and you can't watch and tell me i wish all those people were still living um also like it's part of our judicial
Starting point is 00:12:55 system to kill people cops who are supposed to be the good guys get get off with it all the time so obviously they think it's wrong and that's our law fucking yep someone said my cancer meds aren't covered and i can't afford them out of pocket thank god goodness for my pharmacist who literally wrote down instructions for me on how to get them through kiwi drug slash good rx i shouldn't have to go through loopholes to get meds that will help me with my pain i'm so sorry you had to go through this nonsense megan yeah i will say that the like farm like i get really annoying people like talk shit on pharmacists and like a lot of and like you know despite the fact that i have to deal with like annoying pharmacists with like adhd or whatever pharmacists have been some of
Starting point is 00:13:37 like the most amazing helpful people in the health care system like and have been the ones who are like i'm not gonna let you pay this much money like i've had pharmacists where i'm like oh did my insurance like something lapsed or whatever and it wasn't gonna be covered for like my adderall and it's like 1500 and i was like well i have to work so like i guess i'll pay it and literally the guy was like oh my god no and was like i i'm gonna like i need to take a 15 minute break to his boss and literally like lifted the counter up and like sat down with me with a binder and was like we're not you can't we're gonna figure this out and like that to me i'm like i love that and then they keep trying to make all this pharmacy stuff automated i go why are you trying to take away
Starting point is 00:14:13 one of the few medical professions that is like patient facing that is incredibly helpful and also like you're not trying to screw us over yep i will say double check too because i did have a pharmacist she was like being nice and helpful she's like um she's like our code that i have here it'll be you'll get more money off and i'll say can you just check the one that i have just double check it and the one i had actually was like five dollars less yeah so um just double check things with them and they're like it was no problem she's like yeah of course so yeah i know that everyone talks about preferring like the small independent pharmacies i hear you uh unfortunately legally they don't have to take coupons like at good or whatever but like in
Starting point is 00:14:59 general they don't have to take good rx coupons anywhere for controlled substances but at big ones they tend to be kinder about it someone else said if someone who verifies insurance daily it's all fucked doesn't matter what company it's all a fucking scam um someone else just sent in tips on this but i don't think that's i think that's more just for me yeah you want to hear something crazy i got a thing in the mail that they are that my insurance was like hey your doctor sent it submitted to get you to get another ct scan to like of your sinuses um and we want to let you know that we did approve that and i'm like but you don't need the doctor's out of network and like so you just did work for nothing and also like why why are you
Starting point is 00:15:47 saying that you're going to approve this and in the bottom it says doctors out of network may have a higher cost i'm like so you so you don't and then also where was this for the nasal endoscopy Like, huh?

Starting point is 00:17:30 and you were preaching to the choir with this melissa the people have spoken um also we are blurring out faces did you like that i did r.i.p to carl melissa i almost sent it to you but i was like i don't want her to be like it was the day it came out and i said yeah i'm gonna pretend that i didn't see that this day and i was hoping you didn't see that this day i did but the episode was already out like by the time i saw it okay it's been out for hours so that was also part of the reason why i blurred the face i said yeah poor timing poor timing yeah yeah um five percent said that i was wrong 95 said i was not wrong someone said karma featuring ice spice was never needed i wouldn't bring that up
Starting point is 00:18:19 i don't even know what that is i 100 agree dolly and saprina should have done slim pickings wait that's um the one with taylor got it everybody have heard it i forgot that that like i have blocked it out of my i fully forgot that that existed uh another person said i about cried of joy when you said this the first time i heard this song it low-key made my ears hurt a little as a lover of both redacted and redacted that's me redacting it i was really hoping for so much more when i saw this announcement and the song choice was just as disappointing as my first and only listen of this duet oh and i did want to bring up so in the remix forgot what the lyric was where i was like um whatever it is she doesn't swear no yeah she doesn't swear and they
Starting point is 00:19:13 changed the lyrics in the radio version where it's just the main person singing she says little sucker that's why i was like i don't think it's the same wait when what what when when sabrina does it it's little sucker when it's just the radio version and um oh and then when um the person that hopped on the remix did it they said um don't embarrass me like the others yeah okay because i know that what i i think i just assumed because people had when before the clean version came out i think they were saying like the others on tiktok and i think that i just assumed that and that must have been the discourse because i know people were saying that like why didn't she change it like you could have she could have done a better lyric swap for the clean version so i
Starting point is 00:19:58 think she did the one that everyone said she should have done for this one that makes more okay uh someone else said i am glad someone finally said it i love redacted and redacted but that duet is 100 a skip for me every time i listen to the deluxe album their voices just don't work together or maybe it's the song but why does redacted the older one sounds so creepy who thought this was a good idea and why is this charting yeah oh i have so many questions about things that chart in general yeah another person said okay i listened and i didn't like it and i thought it was just me i'm a huge the older one lover and i felt like this song didn't do her justice and it made me really sad i was listening to melissa's take while running and thought to
Starting point is 00:20:47 myself i wasn't brave enough to say anything against it and then she called me out directly like a minute later you're right i was scared and that's what you're here for to be brave for the people someone else said honestly i was stoked when i saw the duet but melissa was right you spelt my name wrong it was not great harmonies and they really should have done slim pickings i feel like she just wanted to blow up a different vid for please please please now that barry is in the back of the truck and trash i wanted so much more from this that's a good point slim pickings still would have worked though well also considering all it is like tied together like thematically that i'm like you could it could have been picked up
Starting point is 00:21:31 exactly where that left off good point will this be a lesson to everybody ugly guys will still fuck you over another person said i'm sorry i do not mind the reacted duet sue me going back on what you just said before this ugly people will screw you over when janet jackson and jermaine dupree were together married everybody was like why is she with that man and he said that and he cheated on her too and he said he was never given any attention in his life until he was with janet jackson and he made a mistake and that was you know the biggest regret of his life also when she dumped him nobody's throwing their panties at him either like no i haven't even heard that name in so long it i mean he's still yeah but like he he was only hot shit because people
Starting point is 00:22:26 wanted him because he was janet jackson it was proximity to her and then no one wanted you when she divorced you billy eilish has a good quote that i swear to god i think she's a teenager when she said it in like an interview or said you give an ugly guy a chance he thinks he rules the world i was like facts like and a lot of people think that like oh this guy i'm i am the biggest catch this guy will then he he won't fuck me over and i go no he views you as a step on his resume so the next girl he can date is like he thinks if he thinks he absorbs your number so you're an eight he's a four he thinks by dating you he's an eight now or at least a seven i'm like yeah they don't they don't understand no wait there's no they're stupid deeply
Starting point is 00:23:12 stupid and unoriginal did i tell you i had a stress dream about my pee megan we're done talking about the piss for now well you were looking for something so i was just telling you someone else said i can barely tell the older one is even sinking and agreed slim pickings would have been much better someone else said this was my first reaction to hearing it i'm so glad someone else agrees because i went to the comments of the video and thought i was completely alone it could have been great but it just wasn't someone else said with all the pain in my heart melissa you spelt my name wrong is a hundred thousand percent correct another person said i kind of didn't hate that collab tbh i i have to i i do have questions for those people
Starting point is 00:24:01 someone else said melissa's not wrong i too was put off by the duet with redacted there are other duets or collabs i was not fond of this past year but like melissa said i'm way too scared to actually admit it out loud props for bravery thank you so much someone else said melissa's not wrong because not all icons voices go together and slim pickens was right there and would have added to and been made better by the older one someone else said i so love the idea of the older one being on slim pickens i also could have loved to hear her on couldn't make it any harder this is so many people no most i was saying like quite literally like you you spoke truth to the people and they said finally somebody's saying this all right like you prophesied they felt touched by your sermon and
Starting point is 00:24:51 they needed to share their testimony like as i was scrolling through this i was like oh she's gonna feel i bet everyone said weight off their shoulders they go thank you so much thank god another person said i think i voted wrong most it isn't wrong the pairing is iconic but the song wasn't fully it some people avoid you can have like the most beautiful voice in the world but like some people's voices just don't go together or the song some people's voices only work on certain kinds of songs let's take whitney houston and dolly parton if they would have done a duet for i will always love you both songs that they both slayed in their own genre but together it would have sounded awful i can't even like i can't even fat like it's gonna sound like they're
Starting point is 00:25:37 singing two different songs yeah i mean it does yeah if you listen to both versions of the songs they sound very different that would be wild have you seen the bodyguard no of course not you have to remember that's i know i that was one movie that i was allowed to see i was not allowed to see like most films above a pg barely a g um so like this was the one because my mom knew how much i love whitney houston i couldn't see wayne x but i could see this because there was only one scene where she would tell me to close my eyes and also when i got older i was like that was not even anything um but that movie fucking rules and that would go down in one of your good bad movies oh my god okay i'll put on my list because like i think about that i i can't
Starting point is 00:26:26 wait to watch some of these movies that like no way i was allowed to watch i like can't wait to watch glitter and be like so what the fuck was glitter is only available on youtube i literally can see the dvd like at our fucking video store in my mind and i can see being like what do you mean i can't watch this this movie is called glitter look at the poster yeah i'm supposed to not want to watch this like i i felt the same way about kill bill still never seen it well well totally but i go violent why would you put a gorgeous girl in a cute outfit and then tell me as a child who all i care about and i love is fashion and like movies about girls and i go i can't watch it yeah the fuck is great regardless of who wrote it and directed it's a great movie
Starting point is 00:27:09 yeah that foot fetish man yeah there are a lot of feet in there but oh i'm sure an incredible movie i have to say that i love that margot robbie learned from that she goes i'm gonna put my feet in all my movies bitches love my feet let's keep going are you done with yours yeah okay i just hate feet so much yeah i i don't i don't blame you the 2026 chevrolet trax is the stylish And with the standard Chevy Safety Assist Package, you have the backup to handle every turn with confidence.

Starting point is 00:28:19 Writer number one, are they wrong for scaring their boss? 30% said the writer is wrong. 70% said the writer is not wrong. and your writer number only i was like what the fuck are you talking about i get yeah it's the it's the only one we have on this one someone said this is hard and it's fair to hate a job and i'm all for taking corporations to the cleaners slay but it's just the issue it's just the mention of suicide that i have an issue with one of my sisters has a few issues let's say and she would genuinely always allude to committing suicide whenever things didn't go her way i'm
Starting point is 00:28:52 not kidding she was never actually suicidal we made her go to therapy my parents did whatever she wanted because they were terrified she would hurt herself that's why i struggle with this with the way the writer went about it suicide just shouldn't be a joke or a bargaining chip well we don't know what actual mental state that the writer was in and they may not have been using it as a bargaining chip yeah i i think like i don't i feel the same way about like people are like oh my god this person is like faking a mental health crisis i go that's a mental health crisis right like fake that so like i do think in general like using suicide as a punch line in like a comedy bit as like a he he ha ha sure not great but most of the time most of the people who are comfortable
Starting point is 00:29:38 making jokes about suicide it's because like you when you've experienced like those kinds of feelings like it's kind of like you have to laugh or you'll cry like you have to make this and demystify this and in a way for your own personal life that i think in general people who make quote-unquote jokes about that at this day and age who are adults those people have they don't have zero experience with it from a personal level right and then this person too once they said that and then learned that they had therapy at their work for free it was a relief to them so like i don't buy the whole like people do this just because they need attention yeah some people do need attention yeah because like the attention is what they need to help them get through and
Starting point is 00:30:28 get what they need to be helped yeah i knew a girl um who threatened this a lot when she was going through um an ending of a relationship when we were growing up and it was very manipulative but and at the time it was like she's not actually going to do this this is like a manipulative tool she was not mentally well like she was not people who are like doing well and even this person said like your sister had issues i'm like yeah so like this is not something that like people who are of who are completely crystal clear mental health wise are commenting on um and you know i think people a lot of people have different sensitivity levels of like what they feel comfortable making jokes and comments about it but anyone unless that person has like zero experience with mental health
Starting point is 00:31:20 or anyone who's like had mental health like on their own i think a lot of people who have experienced it by proxy feel very uncomfortable with it versus people who've like dealt with suicidal ideation where they're like i have to make a joke about it because and i also have to be able to like feel comfortable just like saying it because like sometimes it is really casual like sometimes it is like you know i'm gonna kill myself like it is it has to be demystified in that kind of a way so i'm not in general i think like we shouldn't we shouldn't assume that someone is being insensitive as opposed to someone is making light of something that they're actually experiencing and like making it a little less heavy and more palatable for the people around
Starting point is 00:32:03 someone else said in this economy you have to use your resources if your boss feeling bad enough for you not to fire you is a way that you can keep the job until you find one that you want then that's the universe being on your side collect your check bestie and use it as your advantage use it to your advantage as long as you can i think that's great advice i voted the writer is wrong but also understand that they're genuinely at their breaking point and it probably wasn't a conscious malicious decision to joke slash threaten suicide high key seems like a cry for help more so and you don't always choose the audience for that sometimes it just slips out that's wholeheartedly exactly what i agree with that's it yep that's like all that is
Starting point is 00:32:37 perfectly sad because it's definitely like one of those oh should have filtered that a little bit more might be someone said i'm not a fan of the way it was said so that's why i voted that they are wrong i do understand where they were coming from and i'm glad that their boss reacted like that not wrong for how they feel lol with the delivery could have been better especially if they didn't know for sure what the meeting was about writers wrong to think their boss is going to fire them but not but so not wrong for scaring the boss into definitely not firing them by saying that they're so right for what they said honestly whether or not they were going to get fired the job force these days is way too ready to fire anyone for anything this is needless stress to
Starting point is 00:33:14 the employee and is this is so unfair so telling the boss how you really feel isn't only good for the writer but anyone else if they feel like letting go for quote anyone else they feel like they should let go for quote-unquote low productivity or whatever employers constantly forget that numbers they fire are people who have to pay their rent too and if they're firing it to make a spreadsheet look good then they probably need to rehire in the future to make it look good again creating a jobless limbo that is so unfair we need to normalize real answers at the job that's deep love that it's a very deeply human way to respond to something that is like not a human like not compassionate right now for a limited time everyone's part of the buick team

Starting point is 00:34:40 and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years writer is kind of wrong but at the same time i hope they take the advice and milk the situation writer is not wrong and should try to get all the benefits from the job as you can before they leave suck the job dry the same way it's sucking you dry suck suck suck suck it off so this is the original writer writing in to answer some stuff so at my job my manager would fire people by saying Can I pull you aside? And has a folder. I've seen two people get fired with the folder in his hand. And when he was about to talk to me, I saw the folder. And that's when I quoted Katya from. And they usually don't tell me to cover someone's shift as that's not a thing at my job. It's work
Starting point is 00:35:23 two hours, seven minute break, work another two hours, 17 minute lunch and another two hours, then a seven minute break and another last two hours. And it was also his body language when he was about to give me the folder. Also, even though my manager offered therapy, I never felt valued at this job i would report transphobia but they get blamed for but then get blamed for it as well as reported racism towards me getting written up for being racist towards white people when they've said worse and make jokes to me oh when they've said worse to me like making ice jokes i have thought about taking advantage of capitalism part like seeing if they can help with college which i've just thought about going back to but i just want to do something i'll enjoy and to work
Starting point is 00:35:56 at a queer friendly place also love that megan saying uh read you wrote you also the episode i used from katya is from an episode of getting fired yep yep yep i think this is a deeply related like relatable thing and i also think there's ethic there's no real ethics in the workplace at this point yeah so stay where you can as long as you can but i'm also as someone who everyone told me to like stick out college and like make it work there's a certain point where you're like i cannot and i've said like literally at the time i was like i won't survive like i literally won't survive and i'm like read into that what you will you want to get dark that's the meaning of it but i'm like i'm being delicate i was like i have to drop out like you
Starting point is 00:36:35 got this i'm like quite literally alone i literally i don't and so making a decision that's like hard and that people look down upon or feels like running away or whatever like that's when you have zero other options left so like i'm also a big fan of quitting when you need to quit then we have my wrong of the week this is quite unfortunately been the theme of piss week we have kelly tedford the grocery store pisser 98 said kelly is wrong two percent said kelly is not wrong i will say i did deeply judge kelly and then within a seven day span i said maybe i should start selling my piss on tiktok also found out she works at the grocery story yes so she knew where to go where to go how to do it without being caught she probably
Starting point is 00:37:27 did some before hours after hours so and i just can't imagine bringing your your piss play like i'm fine if you have two jobs don't do your kink job at your other job it's the same thing i feel like nurses who do like only fans i'm like fine don't be scrubbed in and like be doing your sexy shit while you're no you're at the same with the teachers that were doing it in their classroom i don't care like i think everyone should be paid more i i whatever hustle you need to do i don't think it makes you a better or worse person for doing sex work on top of another i don't think there's any job that it's like oh you shouldn't be doing sex work on top of that i don't give a shit i don't give a shit shit shit shit shit i do give a shit when you are at one of your jobs
Starting point is 00:38:13 and suddenly bodily fluids are being introduced and i did not sign up for bodily fluids to be at this place that i'm going to yeah the way i need more details about this like why on earth was she doing that did she get paid and what were the logistics i was also and and also simultaneously already know way more than i wanted to thanks megan you're welcome that is what i'm here for uh my question is does she go the route of squatting in a corner is she decent enough to clean up after herself or is the aftermath just as disgusting as the battle it would go point and also if she's at work i assume she's clean up on all three that's why i don't trust those big like industrial mop things at the grocery store i go you are just spreading around
Starting point is 00:38:54 all the yuck well with the if it's a wet thing they're usually bringing out the cat litter to soak it up so if it's on carpet not if it's on yeah they do they did that all the time when i was in school too somebody threw up in the hallway oh i'm thinking of piss yeah you think they do cat litter for piss yeah anything wet because it soaks everything up before you yeah no that's smart it's a good point it's a good point good point so at least it's neutralizing it someone just said disgust i don't know why but by the way i'm also just picturing it being an apple like it's it's in my mind it is it is produce we're not getting a lean cuisine i was thinking like a bag of rice
Starting point is 00:39:41 because that also works an open bag of rice yes because they're also soaking things up oh my god she's cooking she pisses in the rice cooker and says they said use any liquid how about urine someone else just said ew they're without a doubt wrong and inconsiderate for putting that shit back on shelves i really hope she's at least getting paid for this well now we know she's getting paid from her corporate job i mean her corporate but her regular job her day job crazy but her day job gave her access to her passion go directly to jail do not pass go do not collect 200 no amount of money would compel me to do this p.s jamie still looking for a sugar daddy lol i'm assuming that's what sd means all right then my wrong of the week was
Starting point is 00:40:28 amanda hergen derger or chris hamilton 97 said amanda was wrong three percent said chris was wrong someone said if she was coming from a genuine non-savior place she should have waited as you say or she could have left her car with a note that said she could provide free vet services there are also non-profits to link people with like mobile clinics with intake coordinators basic needs and even vet care yeah another person said if she saw the dog was in distress she should have either waited to see if someone showed up to claim the dog maybe also reaching out to animal control another person said as much as i understand the compassion of seeing an animal in need and wanting to help them i also understand the bond between a person and their animal and how that
Starting point is 00:41:20 would never be broken especially if it wasn't your choice no matter what reason he wasn't able to get the dog care that he needed it's unfair to take someone's animal and act like you're high and mighty to do so i'm glad the dog got the care that it needed but i can't say that her method doesn't leave me with an icky taste in my mouth also like it's not like she's paying out of pocket for people who come to the vet who don't have insurance right it's like you know you think that you're going to be able to keep the dog after this someone else said if you were helping not stealing you would stick around to talk to the owner you would also return the dog another person said i was physically enraged listening to this and walking to class there
Starting point is 00:42:04 was a right way to help the dog and the man if she wanted to but this woman was so wrong another person said i think my voting got messed up because amanda is wrong when listening i first thought she was helping the dog and bringing it back but as the story went on clearly not it would be one thing to help the dog if she saw it was struggling not sure how she could see that without examining it first though and wanted to help the owner as a favor but then to actually turn it around against him is horrible as someone from michigan that area honestly does have a lot of white women with savior complex give a white woman a dog in the vicinity and it's just that white woman animal lover complex is insane yep and someone else said it's the same energy as
Starting point is 00:42:56 people who only care about the well-being of animals over human beings if she truly was a concerned neighbor slash good samaritan she would ask chris first about the dog and offer to help check in with the dog medically once every once in a while yeah it's very let me buy your baby all right that's it that's the end of our episode we hope you all enjoyed so tune in what's going on with your wrist why do my knuckles look so white because you're gripping that so hard no i'm not well we know you have circulation problems yeah and it's cold it's cold yeah and we're going to take a little break here um thank you guys so much for tuning in we will be back on thursday with don't blame me friday for fisting friday
