You got to be able to take a punch here and there.

But I'll prank you.
I'll put a fake black rat in the shower for days.
And I'll just wait around.
I'll wait around at your apartment.
Oh my God, you're spending the night?
Mm-hmm.
Oh my God, you're spending the night again?
Mm-hmm.
Just for you to open that shower curtain
and see that little evil fucking rat on the shower ground.
Oh my God.
I don't know why, but it's just, I don't know why but it's just i don't know it's
kind of fun and you can i'm not the bitch that like that like pranks people and doesn't want
to get pranked back like if it prank me girly fuck it if i'm in the shower pour a bucket of
ice on my head i probably deserve it it's my's my beige flag. I don't, and I'm not going to do it
all the time. It's just like on some, on some random shit, you know, what else? Oh yeah. I'll
swish around Listerine in my mouth at every single, uh, every single red light. That's me.
If you, if there's a car in front of you and the door opens
at a red light and someone throws up green liquid out of the door i'm in front of you mommy's in
front but yeah that's what i that's my beige flag i never really sit down i'm trying to think i bite
my nails those aren't those are just pretty normal but i do i do sit kind of weird that can turn somebody off but at the same time be like this is how he sits
like if we're in your living room watching something i'm not sitting on it i'm sitting
on the arm like this sitting on the arm of the couch just balancing both feet on the arm. Or I'm laying down like on the back of the couch.
Your boy sits like a cat.
But what's yours?
What's your beige flag?
Let's hear it.
I love you, Milky Boy.
Okay, so beige flag time.
It's going to be whenever abroad is like,
I don't know animal i'm like
okay chill out okay jessica you're talking about melissa mccarthy playing a multi-millionaire in
the boss okay that's not you baby girl that's not you you live at home with your parents in a
trailer park hypothetically that's you know you know what i mean that like you're gonna be like
that's my spirit animal it's like okay that's literally a hummingbird in central park that is not your spirit animal okay
that's a bird you're a human i don't know why that's always kind of irritates me but it's not
like it's not breakup material but it's damn near close you know so that's what I got for you, man. Hope you have a great day. Ta-ha. Fuck.
I love a good ta-ha.
Fuck.
I hit one the other day.
Ooh.
Ooh, it felt good.
Yeah, spirit animal talk.
I'm always like, no, it's not.
What you think your spirit animal is is what you really want to be.
And I wish my spirit animal,
and you know what I want my spirit animal to be tim tebow
that's my spirit animal i don't know who's my spirit who's my spirit animal she's my spirit
animal i don't think a dude has ever said that really he's literally my spirit animal who you know who my spirit animal is
brett farve just any quarterback my spirit animal doug flutie fuck it
it's always it's the girl you like and she's like my spirit animals like seriously martha
stewart and it's the bitch you can't stand is always her spirit animal i'm like
ah of course
it's always the girl that you want to kill it's like oh that's your spirit animal
fucking nicole richie or something just somebody that's just like
so annoying that's who you want to be?
You know what I mean?
Just anybody that you're just,
just no one,
no one's ever,
that's a great spirit animal.
No,
it's always somebody you want to kill.
I get that.
It's kind of fun talking to spirit animals
because you can actually like figure out somebody a little bit.
But yeah, too much spirit animal talk.
And I'm like, get out of here.
You know the internet too much.
When like a whole girl's personality,
this might be, this is actually a beige flag.
When a girl's whole personality is like TikTok slang,
you know, there's a girl that I hang out with sometimes
and everything she says
is from the internet and i'm like god that's annoying but it also works i'm like
it's just like you know like a really good tiktok comment she'll like take that and store it in her
brain and spit that shit out like at the it's always good timing and it's always pretty funny
but i'm like i read that in the tiktok comments like you you didn't think of that comeback
like you say something she's like retweet i'm like
thank you but like you didn't think of something on your own people with all t. He got that dog in him. TikTok language. Like it makes sense, but
at the same time, you're like, please come up with something yourself.
Let's keep going. Okay. I'm sick. So I'm nasally, but
don't come on here and talk. If you're sick i only want sexy sick voice for the rest of the
time i need to leave a voice message on the espresso podcast but i'm not sick
guess you gotta go to the train station and lick all the handles it's been like an ongoing trend
for years like i think it's pushing like 10 now that all my boyfriends and I have a very diverse group of ex-boyfriends
like I have no type really but they all they love anime like I don't know why I guess I attract like
dorks secret dorks you wouldn't think that they were like anime lovers but yeah to me that's weird but it's doable whatever i'll go to comic con with them
no but see like with me i i own horses like not just one i own like multiple i'm the red flag
in the relationship so i feel like if they can handle that then i can handle anime i think anime world is so weird
i don't get it are you watching cartoons
when anime i don't know if it first was pokemon the first anime i'm confused on what anime is
is it just like chinese uh like cartoons i don't know
i think that might be a red flag for me if i dated a girl that really liked anime i'd be like
what the fuck is going on with you for what
oh but you have a tattoo sleeve you have black hair you get spray tins and your parents are
divorced yeah let's go but it's not just anime like it's like the marvel the dc oh that's me
like this stupid really bad sci-fi movies it's like all of that is that genre i don't know what
you call all that but that's that's what they all have in common they
all like that type of stuff it's okay though i'm here for it no you're not you're so not
nobody is i just found out i was so fucking nerdy for like in Marvel stuff like this past year.
It's not nerdy.
It's just the only thing I've ever watched.
And I was like, okay, fine.
I just want like 18 days straight.
I just watched a Marvel movie.
And I was like, I guess I like this shit.
It's just people that aren't going to grow up.
That's who likes it.
The only reason I like Marvel stuff is because that's what i watched when i was a kid
was just superhero shit so you like guy i mean every guy's so immature and that's really never
gonna change whoops yeah but you throw a fucking marvel movie on let's talk i swear to god it was
so cringy girl i used to date i think she hated
that about me we never talked about it but uh bro one time she took me to a marvel movie like on
some surprise shit and in in my head the whole time i was just like fuck she hates this shit
like i was like you sure you want to do this i said that like four times before
because i was like dude i'm the guy that has to make every that has to make sure everybody's happy
I don't know why
it's like my birthday somebody's trying to surprise me takes me to a restaurant I'm like
but is this where you want to go I don't know what that is but the whole entire movie i was like trying to fake sick and shit let's keep going for
when i get really comfortable with a guy sometimes i act like a baby like i do the baby voice with
them and like baby eyes and uh i feel like that's just beige
if you're in a relationship and you haven't had baby voice you're not in a relationship
how about having to do baby voice like when your boys are around is that the craziest shit
all right hold on guys i gotta that's why i disappear every time somebody calls me i walk
away because i just turn into baby voice doesn't matter who's on the other side my dad i'm like hi
what are we doing tonight night a guy i feel like a beige flag is burping like i don't really care it's just kind of there
they're gonna burp it's not a green it's not a red also like i could even say farting like any
anything like that it's okay to burp like loud
or like to suppress it which one are we doing burping loud sometimes it's like damn dog nine
out of ten that was fire but when you suppress it and you're like that's disgusting smell my body hair
that's me every burp but then some people are just like
it's always girls that burp the most anyway that's beige for me but if a girl's just out here
ripping ass that's red girls burping oh i'm like okay
baby talk
i think if a girl did baby talk to me i would like it
because i'm three no it's... It means they're comfortable.
I like that.
I like that feeling.
I'm like, oh, you're doing baby talk.
Oh, I've only known you for 48 hours.
Well, I guess I'm doing baby talk too.
Bro, one time my friend heard me doing baby talk.
The look he gave me.
He looked at me and goes,
is that you talking like that? I go, oh my God.
I go, nah, bro bro i was just kidding around the only dude and but then you end up doing baby talk too much
and like every time you see your girl you're doing baby talk in the car
baby talk that becomes your whole personality. And then you break up with Aaron and you're like, holy fuck, we baby talked.
Let's keep going.
Okay, so I have two beige flags.
My first one is that I'm constantly asking,
did I already tell you about?
Did she record this and then play it into the she recorded this on a tape cassette thing like a movie spy whatever it was
because i can never remember who i tell what to because i just get really excited and want to tell
everybody like anything that's even remotely cool to me which is basically everything um so i don't
want to sound stupid and repeat myself so i'm gonna just constantly ask you did i already tell
you about it my second one is so big if i'm dating somebody and i am looking at them all the time
they might think it's cute but in reality i'm only looking at them
to see if there's a pimple that i can pop oh she's a zit popper
that might be that might be one of mine too i will pop all the zits i don't care if you have 46 zits on your back i'm going in i don't know
why i like it i just i gotta get i gotta get him out and i'll tell you too that might be my beige
how many times have i said that might be my beige flag i'll tell you if you got something
fucked up on your face i don't is that a red flag if i'm like yeah you got like i'm not just gonna
let let you chill with me when you have a zit on your head even though it's embarrassing to like
tell your girl like hey you got a zit like i didn't mean to hurt your feelings but i don't
want you walking around with a zit on your face you're like you know we're in this bitch together
you can't be zit girl all of a sudden do your girlfriend had a huge zit on her face if somebody told me that
i'd fucking i'd never come out of my room that girl is he dating that girl with the zit
what was the first one okay so i have two oh fuck okay so i have two beige flags
my first one is that oh she tells everybody everything i mean i think everybody does that
but when you come across a girl like i've i've talked to a girl before that
she'll say something to me and i'll be like all right yeah for sure and she must tell 80 000 other
people because then the next day she'll say the exact same thing to me and i'm like are you
fucking serious we talked about this for six hours the other day that shit might be red that's red but close let's keep going so my beige flag well i'm into dudes that go to the gym like all the
time and when i tell them that i work out from home it turns into this like 20 minute plus
conversation on why i should go to the gym. Like, I get it. I do.
I get it.
But at the same time, shut up, smile, and flex your bicep.
Thank you.
Ha ha, fuck.
Wait, wait, wait.
So she works out at home and then people, wait, hold on.
So my beige flag, well, I'm into that I go to the gym like all the time.
And when I tell them that I work out from home, it turns into this like 20 minute plus conversation on why I should go to the gym.
Like, I get it.

i'll lay the i have laid down like a yoga mat in my room
and done some yoga but like that's as far as i'm going if i'm lifting weights in my
apartment bro i will put a fucking dumbbell through like the kitchen sink
i'm trying to yeah it's pretty beige it's like she works out hard at home it's like
hmm why doesn't she just go though why doesn't she go she wants to save money

shit out of you that's the gym rules oh my god has it in like sometimes when you go to go to the
gym i go to like a smaller gym and it's just like six people that you're like can there be like a
more of a random group of people in here and there's one there's always one guy that's like at the gym there's always one guy that's like making too many noises
i'm like how do you politely tell this guy that he's like a little bit
benching and shit he's like oh i'm like do you have to everybody can hear and there's always
guy that's like singing to parts of the rap songs.

Come on. I'm'ma sing out loud
So you guys think I have a problem
What's up bro
Can't stand it
So yeah that's why I would work out in my living room
Beige
Bad and beige-y
Let's keep going my beige flag is that i love hitting on straight guys thank you bro because do you know what that does to a straight guy?
I've never got a compliment that good in my life.
No girl has ever complimented me like a gay man has.
Oh.
It's so, when gay guys compliment you, it's so like, guys compliment you it's so like i'm like damn
and i'm not even and you know i'm not so you're just being nice like that
what did what did dude say to me he liked my dude all fucking crumble to the ground and it
means more to coming from a guy
you're like oh shit you actually mean that girls girls i'm like what what what's what scam is going
on here what are you trying to what are you trying to get me into what are you trying to loop me into
sis when a guy compliments you you're like that was from the heart dog
i don't even care if it's pride month get over here
somebody gets some some this gay man came up to me and goes
he was watching me for a second we're at a we're at like a restaurant he goes
you're so good at getting out of conversations i was like oh hallelujah i love you hallelujah hallelujah and i needed that
i needed to know that about myself oh and they make you feel so good
I needed to know that about myself oh man they make you feel so good nothing feels better than a gay man compliment black guy compliment right up there too
those are top tier
getting called the n-word by a group of black people i'm like i'm good bro this is all i need forever i don't need anything else from anybody
this was all the christmases right here you saying that
this group of girls we were cat calling the other day this group of girls benedict mon i was like
did you guys hear that
I was like, did you guys hear that?
Nothing better.
That'll change your whole day around.
Damn.
Call me at every morning.
Nah, but yeah, black person compliment, gay person compliment.
Nothing means more.
I will walk into a gay club just to fucking, just rain it.
Make it rain, zaddy.
You could change me.
You could change me to be gay for like 24 hours if you tell me my hair looks good.
And I'm like, I got a hair transplant. i couldn't even tell i'd be like i love it let's keep going so my beige flag is shaving my entire body yeah and all yeah i do it because i go to the gym and i found out that
bodybuilders do it to look more jacked so obviously had to hop on that trend um i also it just makes me feel a lot cleaner, but the only downside is if anybody ever wants to cuddle with
me, it's like cuddling with a hairless cat and shaving your legs really sucks. I don't know how
you girls do it all the time because like at first it's like awesome and like really smooth,
but then like by the next day you're just itching like crazy you ever see a girl shave
their legs terrifying girls do shit like monsters girls peeing i'm like
right when they go in the bathroom i have to go be
i'm like jeez turn off the hose!
Did somebody uncork a fire hydrant in there?
Crazy.
Like, we can all hear that.
Girls peeing, we can hear it.
Girls shaving their legs is just,
it's gotta be the craziest shit I've ever,
I've ever seen in my life.
Girls shaving their legs. Especially this part.
They're like...
Not one cut.
I'm like, oh!
How'd you do it?
Amazing. Dude, you do? Amazing.
Dude,
girls do shit violently.
I guess you have to do it every day.
So you're like used to it,
but fuck.
I shave my body too.
Every second.
I've always shaved my body.
Have to.
It was like when I was watching a college football game when I was a little kid.
And they're like, one fun fact about this guy he is the one of the highly draftable prospects
will go first round next year and uh something that no one knows about this guy he shaves his
body before every game and i was like oh that's? I'm doing that shit. I was in fourth grade.
Shaved my entire body.
Because, like, there are razors all over our house.
I lived in a house full of girls.
All there was was Venus.
I'm your Venus.
Everywhere I turned, I'm your fire.
Shave your body, young boy.
I'd be like, okay.
One day, my bitch ass just shaved my legs and arms i was so slick dude shaved my butt everything i was the smoothest piece of shit in the midwest
running around the backyard silky dude my shorts i'll never forget that feeling i felt like a goddess
i'm your Venus.
Until the next day I had football practice and I just had to like face 40 dudes and I was hairless.
Oh my God. I never, I was so fucking silky, dudeky dude i was like what if it felt the sweat was just
running down to my socks silky as shit felt so weird but so good at the same time i don't shave
like that anymore i'll trim it up i'll take a. I'll take a, I'll go one all over.
I'll go one all over.
I'm not scared.
Armpit hair,
armpit check.
It's a one.
Dude,
guys that don't shave their armpits,
what are you doing?
Have you seen a guy
and then he raises his arm
and he has like
super long armpit hair?
I'm like,
you don't see it?
And there's always deodorant
like caked up on it. I'm like, you don't see it. And there's always deodorant like caked up on it. I'm like,
who's
has anyone looked at you?
Have you looked at yourself in months?
Years.
Bro, your armpit hair is too long. I mean, that's
my new merch. Your armpit hair is too long.
Let's keep going.
Fuck.
All right.
My base flag is that I will take my pants completely off when I'm taking a shit.
Doesn't matter if it's in public or in private.
I tried it one time because I heard about it.
And I'm never going back shit fuck
so when he goes uh wait even in public you're out here you're out here dropping
i get it though because because I got to have a wide... When I'm dropping deuce, I got to be...
My legs are like this.
I'm pretty much doing the splits when I'm taking a shit.
Even wider...
Dude, this is my routine.
I'll take one leg out of my pants.
You'll always know, fellas.
If you walk into the bathroom and you see a guy with his pants just around one
ankle and the other,
other foot,
just Lucy goosey kind of halfway in the shoe.
It's me.
I haven't taken a crap with my pants around my ankles for centuries.
I think it's kind of archaic.
Honestly,
you're shitting with your pants around your ankles.
Did you find...
Did you slay the first T-Rex?
Did you invent fire?
You live in a hut?
You gotta let them...
I don't know, man.
I think you have to wipe a lot more when your knees are real close together like that. I think it's so weird,
but taking them off completely. I get that when you're at home, but in public,
well, in public, you just got to go one skis on them.
Just one ankle, one ankle gods. Where are we at? Is that a thing?
Espresso pod. Are we are we how we shitting next week question how we shitting
how do you shit for me that's it it's a wrap that's the pod
beige flag a lot of them were beige.
A lot of them were beige.
I think I might have to work out at home now.
