What the fuck?
It's all crying a little bit.
How did you fucking do it?
A little piece of shit.
Whoa!
Awesome remix.
How about remix that was the house club trance Euro synth pop special did you get club?
I got more of a club vibe. Oh really? What's the difference? There's well, there's the club. Yeah, obviously
That's like the clerk. Okay, so that which one of mine is grabbing here. You're going out with your friends
It's dark and there's like a smog machine
lasers and a dance party happening. That's that's the club
Okay, that's absolutely club. So you walk into a
Empty warehouse space. It's cold and humid at the same time
No smog machine because it's just naturally foggy in there and it looks like to
People barely humans are fucking on the dance floor now. You're just grabbing a rave, but okay
You walk into a room that's sort of like a library from an 18th century building
There's books everywhere. You pull one open it and it's like this Latin sort of page of potions
You start reading one out loud the entire mansion rumbles
You look up and you're being swallowed into the sky. You're in the sky
It's you and your friends and a series of people that you assumed have been dead for eons
And everyone's speaking a language that you can barely understand. That sounds like a curse pal
Okay
How about this when you walk into a zoo the animals are drunk and speaking to you with a British accent you wake up
And you're actually yeah, you wake up and you're on a train
Transcontinental Siberian Railroad throughout Russia has to be a dream
So what's a club you ever go to a golf play like where there's like a golf course. There's a bar
There's a little a little snack area. Maybe indoor. There's some racquet ball. Yeah
I'm talking about a country clerk
It sounds
Just the country club. What's a country clerk country clerk because there's golf outside. Oh, that's cool. All right. How about this?
It's like a sandwich triangular white bread
bacon lettuce tomato
turkey
Double-decker with a side of chips that are real salty. Oh nice. You put a toothpick take through the whole thing. Yeah, you're talking about a turkey
clear
That's also a clear a turkey clear because of the toothpick
Then it's a clear sandwich and if it's got a little bit of saran wrap on top of the toothpick
Then you must be in the clear
That guy anyway back to the original theme song right right was written by Don Kiani on aka
Donkey onion. Oh, he's returned with another theme song submission that salutes the pinches marvelous
Pre-delegation for shoving his head into his arm crotch. I hope you enjoy the song
He's he hasn't even sent us a song. He has

I'd really like if you plug my soundcloud. It's just sound cloud calm slash day. Sorry D
Kiani on
The letter D. It should be sound cloud.com slash dawn
Diani on so he's like instead of an on and on and on and on
So Kiani on and on and on and on that's sound cloud calm slash D Kiani on
And he uploaded a remix of Kishi Bashi's song
Honey body. I don't know any of these words. Am I at old today? I think I might like Kishi Bashi
Yeah, I think so. It's that easy. I think so really cuz I made it up. I
Made it. It's not a real thing
so
You don't like Kishi Bashi
You don't like any boss. I was thinking of the Kashi cereal. Yeah
Go lean go lean
Hey, welcome to if I were you the only advice podcast on the web hosted by me. I'm a mirror. I'm also a mirror and
Excuse me. I'm a mirror
Frickin Blumenfield
No idea which one of us is talking right now. They do
You sound a little different than me. No, I don't yeah, you're also you're stuffed you're stuffed up
Post-nasal drift or something beer is a little sick right now
Why would I say my name? I am saying I am just all right
So to clarify. Yeah, Jake is doing this weird bit where he's saying that he's a mirror
Okay, so whenever you hear this voice
Yeah, that quacking that was freaking Hurwitz who I think is the man
But he's just doing a little goofy thing right now and Hurwitz is usually cool and I'm even confused
I'm looking at you talking you think we could do a voice. That's so different than one of our voices that our fans won't even know
The difference
So let's do it. Let's do three in a row. Okay, sometimes it'll be me. Sometimes it'll be you
Oh, and we'll see if our fans get it all correct
All right, so the first person is gonna talk see if you can guess who it is ready one two three
Yeah, that was obviously
Or you again, yeah, all right, so it's either me or you one two three
That was more yeah less distinguishable that one was Jake again. Yeah, all right third one
Again, it might be me or it might be Jake all right third one
Let's see if you guys can guess ready three two one
Alright, I'll do the fourth one. Okay. All right, I'll point to somebody it might be Jake
It might be me over this one ready. Yeah, three two one
This is abuse
All right. All right, this one might be jaker might be me ready
Three two one
That's good, what do you guys think it was we'll give you some time to talk amongst your friends
Could have been me could have been jay. You didn't do a voice once it was Jay
You didn't do it once. All right, maybe this one will be me or maybe it'll be Jake. Yeah, ready three two one
This might be jaker might be me ready
Three two one
Who do you guys think that one was I'll give you another I'll give you another question
Don't keep doing it
Who could that be?
That was me that's right Amir
All right, let's try to answer some questions
This isn't just about tricking each other and making each other giggle. What a bizarre game people have actual shit
They need us to deal with
Here's one written by a lady who she's from Canada. So we'll call her
Montreal
Montreal way to go
My I'm a 21 year old female and I'm a huge fan writing from Canada
I've been dating a guy for almost eight months now and things are going really well. He's amazing or so
I thought a day ago he left for a five week back packing trip through Asia in the hours leading up to the departure
We cuddled and both cried and he talked about how he didn't want to go and how much he would miss me and how he loved me
Once we regained our composure. I lightly kind of jokingly asked if he was gonna sleep with anyone in Asia
He replied if I'm being honest with you. I'm having a hard time deciding about it
Naturally, I flipped out and when he saw how mad I got he said he wouldn't sleep with anyone else
He left and I slept on it in the next morning
I texted him saying that if he wanted to have an open relationship while he's in Asia
I understood and was okay with it before me
He was with the same girl for nine years and he has slept with less than half the amount of people
I have and he says he loves me and that this really has nothing to do with me and it all has to do with him and his
Limited limited experience. He put it very eloquently and of course. I understand how meaningless sex can be
Maybe I'd want to do the same if I was in his shoes
Regardless, I'm still mad as fuck. Should I break up with him?
I don't know if I will see him the same after he fucks a bunch of hoes at a party hostel in Thailand
I said I was okay with it because I felt like if I didn't get out of my get out of my system now
It would ruin things later on for us
But I can't help but feel that if I was enough for him
He wouldn't even want to do this. The other side is that if this is an open relationship
I can do the same but should I I have a history of being a big slut
So it shouldn't be hard for me to do but should I treat him the same way that I wish he was treating me or beat
Him to the punch. Do I have a right to be mad about this or does he have a right to do this?
Do you think that he'll still love me and want to be with me after all this isn't
Meaningful sex with someone you love better than a shitty hookup
I felt sick to my stomach since I left and I kind of resent him for putting me in this position
What would you do? Please help? Wow?
You she went so far down. She spiraled. She spiraled. Yeah first. She's like I hope you don't have sex with anyone else
Like well, I actually might huh. Well, fuck you. We're in an open relationship. Actually, you can't should I wait
I don't want to fuck anybody to break up
Wait, how long did she say they'd been together eight months eight months
But as a 21 year old right and they said I love you yeah
I know he kind of wants to fuck his way through hostels in Thailand. Yeah, so I
think
Maybe I'm of the mind that no matter what he is saying
He's doing it. Oh
So you might as well already in an open relationship whether you like it or not
Yeah, you preemptively so you like the beat them to the punch technique
I think you might as well say like we're in fine. You want to be in an open relationship do whatever you want in Asia
I'll do whatever I want at home and we'll see how we feel when we get back
Yeah, it is easy to be like I'll never get over if you fuck so much people in Asia
And maybe he'll say I'll never get over if you fuck people when I'm at home
But then you guys might just have fun doing your own thing and maybe you get back together
And you're like, yeah, it was a crazy couple months glad we're back
The other option is to just break up
Those are your two
Yeah, staying together and staying faithful to each other is just not happening
So it sounds like regardless of what happens while he's away
You're in an open relationship and you could sleep with other people and then you can decide whether you want to stay together
Or not when he gets back because he poisoned the well
Well, she asked him and he would felt bad lying to her
But it's I mean, that's what he did was like that truth was worse than a lie
Because he was basically like yes, I might cheat on you
So long like who said that's I guess like if that is the truth then you should break up like
That's not like a that's not a kindness to say that it's just a heads up. Yeah, it's a just so you know
It's an FYI. I might fuck somebody in Tyler like hey if I get really I might kill you I might kill you
You're like, oh, well, that's illegal. That's really bad. Well, I probably won't yeah, but just know that I might
When you imagine sex in Asia, do you imagine like a happy ending at a Vietnamese spa?
Or do you imagine like meeting an a Dutch backpacker?
Going on a few romantic hikes and then having sex outside near a hostel
Yeah, I imagine like another another foreign national
Oh, I see that you meet at a hostel that you go to a beach with that you go to a party with that
You go to a sex show that you go to a club with and then you have a threesome with a Thai lady boy. Oh, that's good
Yeah
That's what I and this is all in Canada and I am fapping. Yeah, I noticed that the room where it fapping. No, please
I like when she says isn't having meaningful sex with someone you like better than a meaningless hookup
Yeah, but he wants both he'll have the meaningless stuff abroad and then the meaningful stuff with you
The best is definitely both. Yeah, because that way you can have a nice Thanksgiving feast before you leave
And then you get to eat Asian street food on the day
And when you get back, you'll have yeah, I'm just saying I want chicken satay
Yeah, and also stuffing when I get home. Okay, the best of both
I want a Christmas ham go back to and a slam bam ma'am and
Two hand jobs from that man over there. It's I am you lost the food references, huh?
It's no longer a front I like the idea of saying alright
You could be in an open relationship
She does sleep with other people while he's abroad and then he remains faithful comes back and she's like well
I slept with a bunch of people. How was your epic adventure?
Yeah, open relationships are tough. You I think the only way to do it is to do the the aligned one
What the one where you're like don't ask don't tell yeah style
It's like the kind where cheating is fine right and then they're like have you slept with anybody and and you're like I
Know like even though we're in an open relationship. I happen like entertained the idea. Oh, that's cool
So an open relationship where these are the rules you can only do it
Secretively behind my back and when I question you about it, you have to deny deny deny. I think for some reason
So I'm gonna say like are you working late today or are you meeting someone in a hotel and you have to lie
I really have to yeah, and like all right. Are you just saying that because of our deal like I know you have to lie to me
I really think that for some reason this deal like having the freedom makes me feel more connected to you
Yeah, I mean I want to and it's not because you agreed to say that exact line every time you don't come home one night
Yeah, I wish it's so weird because I know we set up these rules. Yeah to make it seem like I am
Lying when I'm trying this truth. Yeah, which is the realest I've ever been
Right now, and this is you in a motel with somebody else
This is me in the stairwell of a holiday
As I have nine different hookers in the room and you have to lie because that's part of the open relationship
Yeah, the other way to do it is to what say
Yes, you have to pre-approve. Yes, it can't be anybody. We know yes
It can't be more than once all these restrictions right which is worse than being in a relationship
Because in a relationship, there's just like the normal rules of course don't sleep with other people
Yeah, treat me nice. Yeah, okay. I can remember these three things. Yeah, and it's worse than being single
Which is like you can fuck whoever you want
There are no rules because there's nothing to make a rule, right?
There's no one that's like counting on you to be good or dependable like except for the people that you're sleeping with obviously
Of course, but but the worst is having a significant other
Yeah, who is allowing you to sleep with other people, but with all these different strings attached
It's a lot of bureaucracy red tape. Yeah, you also have to pay taxes for the other person for some reason
Yeah, why is that it's not worth it to get an accountant involved?
Yeah
So I guess my advice to this person is to break up and if things are meant to be you guys will get back together when this
Boo gets back from Asia. That's cool. And if they're not then
You spent a couple months getting yours and that was probably fun
This was written to us today. So after five weeks, will you please fill us in?
I think it'll be roughly around New Year's Eve. Let us know how things went with both you and your man's hostile sex in Thailand
It'd be really fun to talk to them both
Yeah, I have a feeling it'll be hard for him harder for him to sleep with people than he thinks
And he's like I want the option and then it still might not happen. Yeah, I think it's gonna happen though
That's awesome. There's not as much as he thinks but it can happen
All right next question another lady
This one is from the UK. So we'll call her of course my favorite UK city
Bath nice
Ball rights, I moved into a new place three weeks ago, and I'm appalled I
Had sort I had to sort this room out while I was out of the country
So I didn't get to see it in person before moving in long story short
It's a straight-up horror movie hordes of fruit flies appear if I open one banana and allow it to brown
Maggots infest everything. That's not sealed in an airtight glass container
There's cat hair piles in every corner of every room
There are literal piles of shit in the cats shit box because my roommate clears it once every three days
I don't even think my roommate has cleaned anything since she moved in a year ago
So I've decided to GT fo good when I give notice
I'll have to explain why I'm moving out already
Should I explain to her that she lives in a literal shit box or should I lie and make up some BS about moving to a new job?
Thanks for your help keep doing you
Let us well lie. It doesn't matter. You don't think she needs to know the truth
Oh, I don't want to live here because it smells and everything is bad. You live in a shit hole. I guess like the
What's the benefit of telling this person the truth that they might clean and make it a better situation for the next roommate?
That's right
So that's probably the right thing to do
But this you're under no obligation to do that at all. So if it makes leaving easier, yeah
Like the the primo thing that you have to do here. Yeah, GT fo. Uh-huh. So like if you're
Apprehensive to tell someone that their apartment is shit and that's why you're leaving
So you end up sticking around a little longer because you're like worried about this uncomfortable conversation
Then just lie to get out of there. Your first priority is you not having fruit fruit flies and shit in your apartment
What if you do this little passive aggressive thing? We're like, I don't think I can live here
I think like I have this weird aversion to maggots
Like it's I don't know. I feel like I'm this weird. I have this crazy quirk where I don't like maggots
Like they freak me out like I like the fruit flies the fruit flies are fine
The cat shit doesn't smell that bad, which is crazy because usually
Yeah, how it's sort of dank it's really dank here like the maggots
And it's not it's probably me. Yeah, like do you have any like thing that gives you like goosebumps like the nails on a chalkboard?
You're like, oh, that's like a weird like I don't like that feeling
So that's why I'm with maggots minds with maggots and like the other stuff really is like I don't mind dust
Dink like the fact that you haven't cleaned any yours fine by me really
The other idea that I have is to do sort of like a half measure
So like you give two reasons. Okay, like
My my job that I just got is is on another side of town
So I think I need to move to be closer, but like this place isn't a great fit for me. Anyway, I need somewhere that has
That is cleaner clean ass clean. Hey, it's nice
Uh-huh clean hands
Sorry, you're why are you leaving? I don't like maggots, mate. You have a new voice. Oh, hey, just
Clean hands. That's a new Zealand sling. I think you could move in with one of the maggots if it gets big enough somewhere
Like some sort of farsight cartoon a giant maggots sitting at a dinner table
And he's like being sort of snooty and snotty where it's like, oh like you're eating you're eating um
Spaghetti or you're gonna finish that. That's good or like you're eating like a rotten fruit
Like don't just throw that old apple away says the maggot right because he it's good for him. Yeah
Oh, or you know what it is. It's like he cooked you a really rotten pie and you're sort of looking at it
Like apprehensively and he's like really I cooked you my favorite dish
maggots try it
Maggots are perfectly named. Yeah, like for like little larvae that are disease-ridden and move very
Sloppily, there's something perfect about the name maggot
I like the name maggot
That's actually what maggie is short for
Oh
Yeah, not like margaret. No, you know maggot simpson, right? Oh god. That's why she moves such
You can't wait until you name your children maggot
Uh, all right. That's it. Let's take a break. We'll come back on the other side of these

And we're back Jake. Do you have any? Oh, it's a lift
I
Do not doth you yeah, so yesterday, um, and I posted about this on my instagram story shout out to me
God that makes me sad for you
I ran out of tomato sauce, so I used cranberry sauce in my pasta with meatballs
My theory was that tomato sauce is nothing but sweetened tomato jam of sorts
And so why are we dedicating our italian dishes to tomato sauce?
When in theory tomato sauce
Is more disgusting than any fruit sauce. I don't love tomatoes that much
So i'm like, why don't I replace the tomato sauce with cranberry sauce? So here's
Something I don't interrupt me
You I you had to have been finished. Yes. I was at that point. I was just saying in general right continue for the future
Yes, for just like a warning shot in the future. Let me finish. Yes. Let me finish. You did
And I thank you. Excuse me. Fuck you. Thank you for letting me finish and I want you to keep doing so here's the interesting thing
I was 100 sure that was a joke that it was a joke. Of course you've done stuff like that before where you know, like
You like do some kind of weird like paleo thing where you like
Cooked a sausage or
I was like the guacamole like leaving guacam an avocado in a bag for a month. Yeah, that's how I make guacamole
Right, like you do like weird food shit all the time where you're like post something really disgusting
You talk about how you cooked it or how you're gonna eat it. Yeah, so I like I was like, I guess he he must have just like
Made extra he made a lot of pasta and he had extra and he didn't want to save it
So you did this joke. Yeah
That's insane. Yeah that you had that. That is so gross. Yeah, it's so bad. Well, here's my thinking
I've got your thinking that you just think that
Sweet red sauce. So talk about vegetable. Sorry. Let me finish. Okay, tomato's a fruit
Okay, tomato is a fruit. That's right off the bat. There's a gray area. Yeah, um, I think it's like both
Thanksgiving sandwich. It's turkey. It's stuffing. It's cranberry sauce
Is that disgusting to you?
For me, yes. I don't I don't like cranberry sauce at all. Is that more disgusting?
I prefer savory. Yeah, generally. Do you like teriyaki chicken?
No, I'm serious. Do you like teriyaki chicken? Answer the question because if it's this is like
I don't want to be like antagonistic and like this has got your journalism
I don't I don't want my blood to boil. You told me at the beginning of this conversation
Don't interrupt you. Yeah, don't interrupt me. You said not interrupt me. I hate teriyaki chicken
What are you talking about?
Took the wind out of your sails there, didn't I? Orange chicken? Thoughts on orange chicken or general so
I mean, are you a member of general so's army? I like them both. I'm not saying I dislike that stuff
I like teriyaki chicken. I like general so's chicken. I just orange flavored chicken
And cranberry chicken meatballs with pasta
It's all the same. It's bread. It's sweet fruit sauce and it's meat
And it's me and because I put it in a weird bowl people are giving me gruff
Yeah, I'm getting lambasted online
I am getting the twitter sphere is a buzz and everyone's scolding me for this
The zitri all I see on social media these days
Uh, I just think it's a it's a unique shape of these three elements, but they've already existed and people eat it all the time
I think cranberry sauce in in like in and of itself is a little polarizing
Like I don't think people all like cranberry sauce. Mm-hmm. What?
So
I mean, why didn't you just put butter on that? That would have been good butter and parmesan. See I don't like I don't like cheese
It's so weird that you're like, you don't like cheese, but I do like cranberry sauce on my noodles
Is your unsolicited advice to do this? No, my unsolicited advice is for you to go fuck yourself
But since I'm here, why don't you why don't you have a bowl of strawberry freaking lasagna?
My unsolicited advice is to
Is to not listen to a mere fucking strawberry?
Pineapple
No, imagine an apple palm
Well, we're all eating eggplant with tomato sauce
I want you to slice open a freaking
Rasmut has smoothie and pour it on a pile of gnocchi
This remembers me
Reminds me a little bit of my friend Dan when we were in high school
We like made mozzarella sticks and french fries after school one day
Ew, and he thought that he's pouring salt on them
But he like put a bunch of sugar on it and he thought it was so fucking good. He thought he invented a new food
Yeah, like cinnamon sugar fries
Who says no to that? I I would I don't like sweet like that that is but you know, but the weird thing
But then you dip you do dip the fries in a ketchup in a barbecue sauce
I was even gonna say a milkshake at wendy's when you would get the frosty with the fries. That was so good
Yeah, so why do they monopolize that?
Honestly, like a lot of sauces are masquerading as non sugar sauces when that's exactly what they are like
There's no difference between sweet and sour and apricot preserve
It's all the same is like people like that. That's why you put like salt on top of a cookie
Yeah, salted this salted caramel. I don't I don't know. I think there's just some
Food combinations that are objectively bad like you like you wouldn't put toothpaste on your meatballs
Would you that would make them sweet?
I'm obviously not gonna eat toothpaste. I resent the accusation that that's what I did
You tilted your head and raised your eyebrows like you were I was considering it because what I did yesterday was put floss in a meatloaf
That way I'm sort of dealing with oral hygiene while I eat with a mint floss
I'll fill my waterpick with gravy and I'll just flush out my cavities with an aju
Christ
Uh, but yeah, that's my unsolicited advice. I guess don't think of tomato sauce as this secret elixir
No, it is not big tomato has its hands and it's in every italian pot. There's another option. There's a better option
There's a cranberry option and there's a cran apple option
There's a world where pizza was made with apple sauce and not tomato sauce
Yeah, you know, do you like bloody Mary or do you like a vodka cran?
And that's a great
Metaphor for me because I hate bloody Mary's and you love vodka and I love vodka crann. I love the crann
What would you rather have? I would rather have vodka crann. I like I like my drink sweet. Yeah, so
Why why stop it drinks is what I'm trying to say
What about soup because you're a soup guy and you don't like tomato soup, but would you like a hot cranberry soup?
That's a good question. I've never even heard of a hot cranberry. It's a hot sweet soup
Let me do a google search for hot cranberry soups. There's not a lot of sweet soups
Apple sauce is almost a soup. Yeah, hot apple sauce. That's soup ish. It's all like warm baby food
Yeah, I'm seeing some raspberry cranberry soup
Um, well, you are fucking welcome, dude. I just introduced you to your new favorite soup
Put the ball in there and you're good to go
Oh, interesting. You can dip your balls in this soup. What do you mean? Like you're actually never mind
You can dip your balls in any soup
No, I'm just saying this will be like enough. It's got
It's gotta be that have that steely resolve
Actually, you can dip your balls in any soup. Somebody wrote us an email
Um, that was asking for a senior quote
You can dip your balls in any soup
Is not a bad you just have to be brave enough. Yeah, ben scambler writes in hey guys
I need a senior quote
And if you read this on the show and suggest something I'll use it as my quote. Thanks ben
Cool. So you can dip your balls in any soup. You just have to be brave enough
Yeah, because a lot of soups are either like
Scalding hot liquid. I wouldn't want to do that. You want like a warm creamy soup
Almost like a cream of mushroom that you left out for a little bit too long. Yeah
Creme fraiche a french onion soup because then your balls are just resting on top of cheese
See, I don't like cheese in that way
Like if I'm gonna tea bag a soup, it's not gonna be french onion. What soup would you tea bag? Um
Maybe I think it would have to be
Like a bisque or like a clam chowder. Yeah, you want the thickness
To coat your sack. Yeah. Yeah, that way your sack is surrounded by the cream witness the thickness
That's another senior
Uh, all right, what else we got let's answer some more questions. Um
I should say we are still making videos for our patreon patreon.com slash j a
inching very close to releasing it at, uh
Groomsman speech that I gave at your wedding that is true. I'm excited for the world to see that say
You really lambasted me on that one
Oh, here we go
Hey long time listener first time e-mailer
Um, my name is
Slim shady. Oh, I guess he's from america and I have an issue for the pinch. Fuck you amir na jk
First date ideas, please in desperate need. We barely know each other, but there's definitely enough chemistry for a first date
I don't want any place where we can't talk like a movie or something
But I don't know if I if just talking is a good idea either such as coffee or alcohol
Please help. Thank you either such as either such as oh is it such a good idea either such as a coffee date
All right, cool. So I won't make fun of the way he wrote it because you read it bad. That's right. Um
Uh, I used to have a really solid go to
Date first date in new york
Because I didn't really date when I moved to LA and what was it? It was brooklyn bowl
Which was bowling and drinking and it's combo. It's perfect. I think the gutter is also good
Oh, I mean any bowling alley where you can drink that's I think that's the perfect first date because
You
You can talk there's a game involved. So it's like fun and flirty and supportive
If like she gets a strike or if you get a strike you could show that you're not a sore loser
Yeah, there's and unless you are and there's like, you know, you can show off either way
Like if you're good at bowling, that's cool
And if you're bad at bowling you show off that you're in good nature about it and it doesn't bother you
That's fine too. Yeah
And the other nice thing about having it be a game is like
If there's any time where there's like, you know, if you're at coffee and you run out of things to talk about for a second
There's like that moment of silence where you're like, so what else? Yeah, someone has to come up with a question. Yeah
But with
A game or something like bowling like oh, okay
There's like all these natural breaks in conversation where you like have to not be speaking also things to talk about
The game that's happening is a conversation started around you. Yeah, you can make fun of somebody else the guy that bowled
differently if he had like a weird
Like a gimpy foot
Imagine like just you can make fun of handicapable people. Yeah, like a guy without a foot bolt. What?
I'm just saying you could make fun of
Yeah
Date with anybody one of your
Your topics of conversation. I like the people that are less. Yeah, I saw I like to make fun of the less fortunate on a first date
What's your aside from making fun of the less fortunate? That's pretty good. Why don't why don't I zoom out and like that's another senior quote
You can make fun of a less fortunate on a date on a first date the first date
Zoom out a little bit any bar with games like black cat in new york. Was that what it was a fat cat or something?
Yeah, was it a fat cat? Yeah some some cat
It was that there was like ping pong there. Yeah and or connect for and or something that you can do
Yeah, there's a decent amount you can like even I think you could probably like yelp that because there are
Game bars Brooklyn had a whole bunch of games in it. Yeah, and even like upstairs in the counting room had jenga
Yeah, I mean I'm just like let's just recount all of our first dates and any bar has a checkers in it. Yeah, you could I think
Some place where you can distract yourself easily from like if the conversation hits a lull. Yeah
That's a good thing for and also if you own a bar
Why don't you just tuck away a shit ton of games in the corner because nobody's if even if nobody plays the games
That's fine, and it at least gives people something to do while they're sitting around a table
Yeah, it's like when we brought past the pigs out at your bachelor party, which god damn was that good?
Yeah, I had such a big regret that I didn't bring that out during
Um
Like as we were getting ready before my wedding. I heard yeah, you mentioned that in your vows
Yeah, I said my biggest regret is not playing past the pigs before this
Yeah, just to get me going and you were so choked up during that. Yeah, I thought that was a really sweet moment
I actually thought that was a really sweet moment
Thank you for like talking me through that again stuck with me. Um, all right next question. Mm-hmm. Let's fucking keep it going
All right, here we go
A 21 year old guy from canada. We just got rid of a 21 year old girl from canada
Got rid of do you mean talked to her?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I figure once I archive these emails there
Dead
Well, we you specifically asked that girl to talk to us in five weeks
Yeah, I guess she could stay alive for now. We'll call this guy
Tehran
Nice
I'm a 21 year old guy from canada. Here's my problem. I dated a girl a while back. Let's call her anita
It was nothing all that serious. We only dated for probably less than six months in total
But overall it went fairly well
We ended things at the start of the summer and I was pretty okay with it considering
We both had to go to different cities for work purposes. However, since breaking up
I always had this lingering feeling that we could pick things up again as we're both back in our hometown this summer
I guess I'm not expecting anything particularly serious as once summer hits
It will be the same situation, but hell it's cuffing season
We had a good time and to be quite honest. I'm lonely af
I tried getting her attention casually at first throwing a few instagram likes her way
Slid into some dms trying to spark up a conversation when I saw her in public
All to an overwhelming amount of disinterest from her
Eventually I gave up and moved on my feelings for her are completely gone until I caught wind that she's now dating a girl
Now she never gave me any signs that she was gay slash bi when we were together and frankly
I'm fully aware that it's not my business, but now I can't help but want her again
I'm overwhelmed with feelings of jealousy and inferiority. She occupies my thoughts almost 24 seven and I can't make it stop
What can I do?
Do you think the fact that she's dating a girl and not a guy has anything to do with the way I'm feeling?
Have either of you ever been in this situation before? Please help
Just knock it off man
knock it off
He's like growing obsessed with this girl the less interest she gives him
It's like she's so far removed from having anything to do with you now. You're like her
You're some random guy she dated for a few months over a year ago
And now she doesn't she's like not even attracted to your sex or at least
Is attracted to this other person that's not your sex. Yeah, so like
Just quit it. He demands an explanation. You don't deserve one. You don't get one
I like that. I threw a few instagram likes her way nothing slid into her dms, and she was very
Unresponsive. I even tried to make conversation with her irl and nothing was brewing
So now i'm totally over her except for the fact that I think about her 24 seven and i'm curious about who she's with
And jesus christ as she gets further and further away. You're growing more and more intense
Uh, she does not owe you an explanation. She
Does not owe you a goddamn thing
Uh, just find someone else. Yeah, I mean the the best way to get over whatever you're feeling is not to get like
closure from from this person because
Whatever is happening is happening in in your head not hers
So like she does there's there's nothing that she can give you that will make you feel better
Would you say the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else?
No, because I don't know if this guy's ready for any relationship. It sounds
Would you say that he deserves a big helping?
of
blueberry bolognese
ballonese
um, yeah, I guess my my um
My advice for anyone trying to get over someone is to just
Shift your energy to someone else somebody be new somebody exciting
You're probably just creating a narrative in your head. That's keeping you more obsessed growing
To the point where you're thinking about her almost 24 seven. Yeah, I think the easiest way to shift from
One person to another is to bring your focus back on yourself to do so you
Focus on you and how you can make yourself better
And then that will that takes the the laser focus away from this person unless you train it elsewhere
After you've done some self-improvement. That's beautiful
Or okay
That's a happy ending
Like a massage. Yeah, like a massage where someone brought that up to the go
You brought that up when the guy was going to Asia. Yeah
I've been thinking a lot about happy endings and whether or not they're legal v e legal
I feel like if we did like a bullet point of your advice this episode
It was like get a happy ending in Asia. I make fun of people as fortunate and yeah the one put cranberry sauce on your meat
Yeah pasta. It's just like this was like a really big
You know turning for for you today like all everything I said was
Yeah, basically not nice or good to have
Yeah, like everything that I brought up on this on this episode basically like from start to finish
Oh, you also did the um, you know, like the passive aggressive thing to the roommate. Oh, yeah as an option to be like
To basically not to be honest with yourself. Yeah, or somebody else, which is also. I think not good
Yeah, like basically in total all my all the things that I said this episode were not good
Yeah, right. Yeah, and then one of them was kind of mean a few of them were illegal
And one of them was just being nasty to other people
Yeah, right. How did you do?
I mean, I think we should call each other out on our bullshit. Yeah
I think and I appreciate you doing it to me. Right. But now it's like let's yeah, what did you say?
I don't know if I how many questions did we answer I think four
So I think I went four for four and then I would even consider
So overall I feel like I feel like I feel like me. Um, I think I'm coming between the two of us
We did pretty good four of eight. Well, yeah, but it's not it's sort of like
You know, I'm happy. I'll take what two baseball teams play each other. They don't you don't combine. I'll take it
Yeah, I want to split that double header
I almost like pitched it's like I pitched to no hitter because I also did really well defensively
And then I did because I said the cranberry I gave up a few runs
But overall we ended up outscoring our opponent if I wasn't starting pitch
Would you say I did fine?
Like I had a you got shelled if you were starting pitcher because I like went ham on you
I feel like I went six and I gave up like two earned
But we ended up winning the game 11 to two or something like yeah, no you
And now I'm gonna fucking detox with a hot raspberry puree
And an ice bath
