What's going on, messengers? Messengers might be the one. There's another one that people were saying that might be cute.

No! Mistakes is in the building. They are more than mistakes. They're everything that we wanted and more. So we're trying to come up with what we're going to call y'all. But you know what I'm saying? Hit us back with what you would like to be called. Hey, messengers!

That also feels, it's giving you PS, but. I like mistakes. Marie, would you like to be called a mistake? Some people were born and they were mistakes and they're blessings now. I see how you spun that, and that's how creative you are and witty. But my people in the street, is that a mistake? No. They're not going to go for that.

Girl, listen. Listen. There's worse things that you can be called than a mistake. Girl, see? This is why when we see our fans, you got to show them that you love them. Girl, you are doing enough of that for the both of us. Okay? when you see the fans

and they run up to you and you're exchanging numbers with them and I'm sitting back with my glasses on playing it cool. They are not worried about anything

that I will or won't say. Or maybe they are. They're like, oh my God, maybe she's going to call me a mistake. Yeah. You can call them a mistake.

The people will tell us. They will give us exactly what we need and what we want. Let's get some little socks with a little, like, ruffle on them and then in the back. Mistakes. Mistakes.

And we could sell them at Planned Parenthood. I think they would love that merch there because that's why everybody's pulling up. Mistakes. Yeah. Yeah. Are there Planned Parenthoods in other states? Like the states where they banned abortion and stuff? I only know about the Planned Parenthood in New York City and they know me.

The Soho one? They know me in Soho. They know me in the Bronx. Oh. I've never been to anything in Brooklyn, but they know me. The Planned Parenthood in the Bronx. Oh, yes. Let's talk about that.

What? You got to go through a metal detector when you get there? You have to go through a metal detector, period. Every Planned Parenthood, you swipe your stuff through. But it's giving hood club situation where you might can sneak something in there. Yeah, in your butt. Mm-hmm. It's not giving like the, it's updated metal detectors.

oh you're saying it's the classics yeah they got the 1980s the original versions just the ones that like harriet tubman and them had to go through yeah the dogs was chasing them through those metal detectors the civil rights uh the malcolm x the i am malcolm x right right the get your hand out my pocket metal metal detectives yes um but you you're asking me about the planned parenthood in the bronx i mean i i had that was just the one question okay yeah you thought i was trying to make a trip yes I mean hey and I took that trip I took that trip there but I wasn't doing anything that y'all think I was that people don't understand Planned Parenthood is for all services you get checkups if you need birth control you get an oil change I don't think

you could get a mammogram there but it's all things womanhood and it's not just for you know a bobo a bobos yeah um yeah when I was going to the gynecologist with no insurance I was going into Planned Parenthood and my therapist was like why do you go there? Oh no. And she was like you should go to a proper OBGYN. And I was like but they take what I got here. So.

But we learned that that's not, we can't go with what, we can't go with what they give us because you know they don't give a damn about us. I don't remember but did I say this on the last episode? How I went to the doctor and I finally had an annual checkup. I hadn't had an annual checkup

in many annuals. On record never she was like i'm look she was going through pieces of paper and looking and she's like it seems like you ain't never come to see the doc that you have the right spelling because you know people be spelling sydney wrong they do smell my name and i hate that it's like i i don't look like the type of person who have a y at the end of my name it's just not happening it's not about what you look like the name look like it should be a y there no i think people should change their like point of view or perspective like you know you look like a marina i don't believe that i do at first when i first met you i was like marie that's odd but now that i see you i'm like i that's odd

that's odd i did so i can't i can't call them the people listening mistakes but you can say my name and face combo is odd your face doesn't give marie because marie is kind of like bland and you are very unique no shade to the marie's that are listening marie is a dry but it's it's very cookie cutter you know they're wearing plain white t flip flops boot cut jeans that's what marie feels like honestly that's what i was gonna wear to the party today i had the boot cut on and i said no thanks damn friend okay okay marie what was your mess this week wow can we talk about so today when I was on my way here my landlord called me because I was like yo the heat is not working in my apartment was good so she called me to be like oh the man is gonna maybe come tomorrow

and blah blah blah I'm feeling under the weather I don't care she also as I was getting ready to hang up she was like um also the check you gave me bounced I said hi Marie what what hello is the mic on what is the mic on is the money in the what i said put the motherfucking money in my motherfucking hand are you serious i didn't know he was doing like this girl i didn't even i've never had a check bounce in my life mess the way she was talking to me yes mess the way she was talking to me she was talking to me like she sees me as a poor person now because after five years of living there my check bounced one time but that's all people see you all you got to do it mistake the mess ups all you gotta do is mess up once and that's what people see when you're

coming forward they're like oh you know you know she owe me 30 it's like 30 i'm like well how long did you take to cash the check because the money was in there when i wrote the check right i don't know what happened after i wrote it what account is this that you're like i'm only putting the amount of money for the rent well this is an account that i only take money out of but i You never put money in. So the fact that it's lasted this long, Marie, shocked. The way you live is on the edge and I love it. Thank you for saying that.

And you know, and the thing is, is that you don't look like the way you get down. I don't look like a check bounce. You bouncing, but not the check, friend. She was like, yeah, the check was returned for insufficient funds. I said, whoa, why are you talking so loud? That's so loud. You didn't even ask me where I was. Like, if there's people around, if you won't speak her.

You know she was on the rotary. You know she was on the landline calling you. She was, you know, she does a, she was doing the turn when she's calling you. She was. She was. So, she embarrassed you in front of? I was home by myself. Okay.

But it felt embarrassing. But your plants were listening. Because I know you weren't a speaker. God was listening. God. God already knew the check bounced from him. He's the first one to know. He's never the last.

When I was writing the check, he was looking at me like, look at this bro bouncy. I'm like, what happened? I'm like, can I Venmo you? No, she doesn't have Venmo. She wants a check because she's doing shady business dealings. You think that's what it is? Why do you have to physically come to the house and pick up a check?

Do you not care about the environment? You know damn well. The turtles is dying. The checks are messing up. The turtles, yeah. The check is getting In the turtle shell And he can't get comfortable

That night He's chewing on the checks And that's why they bouncing Girl It's really the turtles That are taking her money I don't Them ninja turtle ass niggas

Leonardo is Get your hand on my pocket Michelangelo is why The check bounced That's why Did you tell her that So then what Did you say

So I'm gonna move some funds No I didn't say that I have already moved the funds Okay But I didn't know There wasn't a I didn't move them quick enough Yeah

For the check to bounce. But she was like, also, when you write a check, you have to write the whole word out. Because I'll, like. You abbreviate it? It's not that I abbreviate, but if something is $3,080, I'll write 3080 or something like that. Zero cents. Oh. I thought you had to write out the word for a check.

Girl, I've been writing these checks for this lady for five years. I write them like this all the time. Because this one bounced, now she needs the whole word there. Babe. Hey, when you don't abide, when things is not right, yes, we switching it up now. The length of the word don't, don't insure the funds. Is there a bias in balance because you didn't, you didn't spell out $3,000? Too little words, too little funds.

A day late and a dollar short. Girl. That's what happened with your check. Anyway, she was like, I'll be there either tonight or tomorrow for the boiler. And I was like, I'll have the check tonight or tomorrow. Yeah. Whenever you turn that heat on, sis, that's when that's when I'll have that money. OK, if I'm freezing, you ain't eating. And then, you know, when you try to wrap somebody up on the phone and they're talking too slow.

And she said, I was like, listen, I'm got to get on the train. I have a podcast that I need to go record. And she was like, another thing is, you know, I don't know what the fee is going to be for the bounce check. I said, listen, I'm sorry this happened, but I got to go. We'll figure this out later. Did you raise your voice to an elder? Marie, who raised you? An elder.

Who was also yelling at other elders. Somebody, an elder with a loud voice. You got to be loud to compete with the elders for them to hear you. You know, they're women of a particular age. Yeah, absolutely. Damn, friend, that's wild. I mean, I had to laugh. But if we're going to end a year with anything, a balance check,

we're leaving balance checks in 2024, 25, all funds are going to be sufficient. Do you hear me? right the account is all funds the account is gonna be fully funded there's gonna be so much in the account that they're gonna call you be like do you know you have all this money in your account girl you're doing too much you're doing too good you're working too hard let me take some of that money off your shoulders yeah what you're saying is i'm gonna be so rich next year that i'm gonna get robbed no white collar crime absolutely not what's the man's name barry bernie bernie made off fernie made off no that doesn't happen to blacks but who black people be having their

money in like the pension fund and whatever and they take it i don't know about those oh okay you only know the bounce check yeah they're like i don't trust the banks and they putting all their money in manila envelopes yeah putting them in uh shoe boxes and i don't like having too much loose cash at my house yeah i've been having cat like before when i was working at the stand a lot i had tons of cash which is so bad because you are literally doing anything and everything and you can't keep track i knew i have 400 on me but i don't know exactly where it is just at a time you'll have a random 400 on you and then let me hold 399 and then i'll think that uh either somebody didn't pay me when something is missing or i dropped it that's how my mind goes and you

Do be dropping stuff. I do drop. Drop it like it's hot every time. And so, yeah, I don't recommend cash. I have some cash on me now. I need to go to the bank. If you want me to count it right now. Yeah, let me see.

And let me tell you another thing that I'm messy at. I don't have a wallet. You put it in your pocket? If anybody wants to send me a wallet, this is how I keep my cash, honey. Sidney's money is in the pages of her passport. Okay, because you know where my passport is not going to be? lost. It's not going to be in the lost and found. Well, knock on wood, baby.

It's always found by my heart. Oh, no. I stay checking my purse because I need to know if my passport is with me. But yeah, this is my cash. That'll be like $302. Let's see how much. One, two, three, $400.

$405. $405? Yes. I know I need to go to the bank. Is it your birthday? I don't carry... No. No, this is my comedy when I'm doing what I do at night. From when I was a kid, I would always have, like, the most random, insignificant amount of cash on me. It was, like, $7. Like, I leave my house with $9.62.

But I will say this. People should have some cash on them because when it's time to, like, split the check or tip, cash is always perfect. Because then it's like, oh, oh, baby, I'm giving you exactly what I got. What if I give you the cash that I have and it's like I have $20? I feel like that's something you would do, Marie. I'll Venmo you the rest of the day. Yeah. Marie, you're not giving people to Venmo right away.

No. They're going to have to pull up like your landlord. They're going to have to call you on the land like, so what? Well, because listen, if I forget, you know the way ADHD brain is set up. It does. If I forget to Venmo you and you forget to ask for it, hey, it's on the house. Really? So you can't keep tabs of money that you know is out there that you might owe.

Loose? Loose. Loose funds? Yes. No. The way my shame works, I usually know when I owe somebody something. It's always in the back of my head. I never forget.

They might forget, but I don't. Oh. Yeah, because it's not that many people that I owe money to. You know, one friend that, this was like 10 years ago, he ain't never getting that back, but it was a man. not 10 years ago he's fine girl with interest how much do you think

you owe this person he's not getting it back that's one he is a straight man with inflation how much money he'll be fine and if he needed

that money back he would hit me he never hit me back for it girl he forgot he forgot oh no he might remember because he's got a he's got a good brain

and then I think there's like another friend in the IRS those the IRS the IRS oh yeah

oh I have the same I owe that same friend money too sis okay cool but for the most part it's like I hate having that like thinking because I want people

to pay me I hate this is mess these things that we work for you know we independent contractors we be telling them

hey this is what I that's what I'm owed that's what I'm due and you want me to hurry up and do my job but you don't want to pay me you don't want to pay me

in a timely fashion you want to you want to hit me two months later yep that money is gone in two months I need the money

exactly right I need a net now no net 60 net 90 net 120 they said you might get it you'll forget by the time you get the money you forgot what you're getting paid for this is true or no you're in the hole that's the thing that's why you have to be paid immediately i and then they make you feel bad that you hit them up for your money what are you broke yes i am who is saying that to you in an email i'm a bro who is emailing you are you broke they they will never in accounting they'll never say are you broke they'll just allude to oh didn't know that this was in a rush yes yes i need a rush

right now i needs my money and i needs it yeah so if i feel that way about people that i've worked for honestly i don't want to do that to the people that i know because i'm thinking the same thing well i will say this week we went out for alex's birthday oh yeah and a bunch of us went to a diner after and Lisa paid and yeah I Venmo'd her as soon as I got home look at you and what is that

growth that's why my check bounced because I Venmo'd her right away how much was the diner it was like $40 I was like how much is the diner you know what my mess is my mess is showing up late and then leaving early

I have to go I have to get up But I you have been leaving stuff early, recently, so early. That's not even my thing. You know, I'll be the last man standing. I'll be like this one. Yeah, I'll be like one of those animaniacs when they got the like the stuff over their head. And, you know, they twirling and looking delusional.

That's me at the end of the night lights on. And I'm sober, but I'm realizing I ain't got it in me. The thing is that I feel like in the winter when people are drinking, it feels like it's suffocating me and I can't partake in any of the drinks or any of the thing. It's like, so, yeah, they don't need me. I gotta go. Yeah, it's wild because when I think about drinking, I think the summer. It's nice out. We're drinking margaritas.

We're drinking. We outside. We are outside. We're drinking a lot. But holiday season is a lot of drinking that goes on so much between Thanksgiving and Christmas, too. Yeah, it's every day. Yes, it's there is no reason why you should be sober during November and December because there's so much going on. There's so so much like things that you think you should be finishing up or things that you're anticipating for the new year.

People that you probably don't even want to see, but you blood related. It's like a lot of things tied to the end of the year. So that's why people going all out, going all out, drinking, not, not stopping. And they staying out until the sun goes up. And I'm like, you know what? I've been looking underneath my eyes. I'm like, girl, you look tired. Girl, should we get some fresh faces for the new year?

No, it's just, it's just like knowing when to go home. But then my, my other messes. So our friend Alex was posting all these pictures from his birthday and I wasn't in none. And I was like, I was there. why why didn't i get any photos and so that's what happens when you leave you leave early you miss the photo you miss the photo ops and then it feels like well well fuck i wasn't there i know the picture was gonna look crazy of me anyway but it's just like i just i like that little tag that i was that was there well you want us to add you in post we could throw you i would love somebody

just photoshop me in some of the events that i'm not there because i do have fomo that's another messy thing you have photo FOMO though no I have FOMO in general I I want to be there my heart is where my friends are and so when I'm not there I'm like well what are they doing without me they need me the night is not young when I'm not around go home that's what I've been doing that's what I've been doing and then I'll go home and then I'll start scrolling the stories they look like they having a blast and i don't like that i don't like that why you have fun without me yeah well you should be texting me girl wish you were here but next time next time what do you why are you why'd you leave when i say i'm gone people like okay no the last two

this much left yeah I'm leaving in this much time I'm leaving in this much time and I'm like well she's not a lush so she's not gonna guzzle it down I mean but I am also good for leaving with the glass you do I will Rihanna it out of a situation it's it's it's interesting when I see you leave with the glass I'm like only Marie and Rihanna and Rihanna yeah if she could do it I too You can do it. I did it. Okay, so let me tell you what's going on in this week's mess. Let's talk.

Let's talk. So this girl gets on TikTok. You know, that's where usually where I get my news, y'all. I don't want to work too hard. I just stay on. And another mess thing is TikTok is supposed to be banned at the top of the year. Wait, is that official? They said officially it's supposed to be banned at the top of the year.

I don't believe it, but. Who's it? Congress is not even at work right now. What are you talking about? Yeah, well, it didn't get bought by anybody American. So they're like, China, goodbye. you're not gonna be keeping tab on us such haters they are but also the tea is is that people are making a shit ton of money through tiktok and it's a lot of awareness and it's a lot of people

spreading information that is very necessary to people's individuality or people being like we're gonna riot or we don't have to stand for this and so everybody's like oh y'all got too much free autonomy shut the shit down we still have instagram and youtube not doing that on instagram yeah but i'm saying all of that content is still going to exist they can just slide it over people are tired now you know we went to we went to a little instagram event so we we good with instagram but a lot of people they got some notes they are they about damn time i got notes for instagram they are they are exhausted because you know people are trying to um keep up appearances on there and so no one is like living their free life they're posting their perfect photos or

they're getting their perfect reels and tiktok people are messy things that the aperture is off um people be on bonnets um they don't care what they're saying and they're they're telling their all of their family secrets at 2 a.m who's the girl who um dates that guy named chris she does like wig videos she's like oh he came he came and she has the braces yeah oh she has braces yeah she's wild that's a bit that's tiktok yeah i'm i'm i press not interested at times um but yeah so i'm i'm on tiktok and this girl's like hey the men the men something's going on she said so i this guy asked me out on a date she pulls up he he takes me to uh he gets tickets to a comedy show that's the first red flag right comedy show first date no no we need to be

you know getting to know each other i can't do that because now i'm watching i'm laughing at stuff that you didn't say you getting a free ha ha ha you didn't work hard so what's seven other mean i you think you think going to a comedy club a comedy show on the first date is a bad first yes it is yes it is it's lazy i don't think that it is a bad first date it's a bad first date for us because we we at work don't come see me at my job but if like now i get to see what your sense of humor is i get to see if you serious i get to see if you stoic i get to see if they make fun of you how you let that roll off your back like how about you do that in an actual conversation i could see how funny you are if you just get some words out of your mind i could tell in the

first five minutes if you got a sense of humor or not well the comedy show shouldn't be the whole date it should be some drinks involved some a little amuse-bouche okay let me get to it now so she gets there the tickets to the comedy show are 25 each so he buys both tickets which he should he invited he invited her right so he gets there he's like oh uh we got some time before the show starts let's get something to eat she's like i'm not really that hungry but okay he's like let's get some tacos he gets some tacos he buys her taco because she only wants one and then he gets three he gets the tacos they eat and they kiki and whatever they go in and he's like yeah let's get let's get a drink and she's like i'm not i'm not really that thirsty or whatever she's like uh can

you give me some water and so he literally stops he's like why don't you get us something to drink and she's like i get i yeah i could do that but you said let's get some drinks i assumed You would be getting the drinks He's like Well why Why don't we both Go get The water

And she's like This is This is odd Okay And he's like Let me ask you something Are you Now that is another red flag

Let me ask you something No Let me ask you something It's not It's the new We need to talk We need to talk Let me ask you something

It's always gonna be Something that It's like You know the answer to this sir He asked her So are you the type The type of woman To serve your man

Excuse me This is not Burger King I'm not serving nobody. When did this turn into church? He Christian? Yeah. Why he ask me that question? Yes, very much so.

He's like, are you the type of woman to take care of your man? Sir, we are in front of the tacos. Serve you? You're not even my man. Right. We're just on a date. First date. First date.

Mind you, this is my first impression of you. That's their thing on TikTok. They're like, mind you, this is my first impression of you. Meaning like, I've never seen anything and this is what, now I'm going to leave with this. Right. so uh he's kind of like going back and forth with her and she said you know what have a good night and she left she left she didn't even get to see the comedy show because i was like maybe she was at one of our shows yeah she missed had no deal you missed you missed out babe you made a mistake

i would have stayed for the comedy and then i would have left immediately or i would have stayed for the comedy i'm like can we sit different but she must have already not been feeling him like for you to be like that ready to go it must be like you you leaving a bad taste in my mouth or maybe the tacos did but like i'm not even gonna go back and forth with you how loud was he talking he was yelling no i don't think he was yelling but i think we're at the point in our lives i don't know how old this girl is but we've gone on enough dates where it's like some of us are doing it for the plot and other people's like the plot is done i'm i'm exhausted either we're gonna have good vibes or not i did not come out of my place where it's warm for you to ask me so are

you gonna serve your man excuse me i don't speak whatever language you talking about sir i'd be like i'd be like what you mean by that like cater to you destiny shaw i mean that's what she was asking but also it's like you you're taking me to a comedy show and you're getting tacos so you're acting like this is a michelin star like caviar is pulled out we at the opera Girl, you don't know what kind of tacos it was? It was Gordon Ramsay was in there putting caviar eggs on, caviar eggs, fish eggs on the stuff. No, it felt like it was one step above Taco Bell. It was actually a taco truck, mind you.

It was, the tacos were on wheels. Were they in L.A.? Because the taco trucks hit in L.A. I don't know. I don't know. But she was just like, I'm not putting up with this. And I think, I don't know. Self-care.

Everyone, it is self-care. but we trying to figure out what is going on with both people because if someone asked me for me i get the whole like be a man take care of it you know bring back men but it's also like somebody got the tickets they got some tacos i would i would probably offer oh you want some drink i could use your drink and so i think his thing was as a human being you see me doing all stuff you don't want to you don't want to get me a you don't want to get me no water you don't want to well you don't want to contribute i hear what you're saying yes but she's not saying i'm hungry he's like let's get something to eat and she's like i guess i'll have a taco a taco is five

dollars yeah if that uh he's like let's get a drink she's like i don't really want to drink maybe some water now you mad now you're mad because i asked for a water she didn't say oh i'll take a long island iced tea she didn't say i'll take a whiskey sour she just said oh can you get me a water and he was like why don't you get me a drip like it's him yeah no no okay i'm not i'm not team you know him sir are you gonna serve your god and me at the same time now i'm not team him but i'm also like a person who is a giver and you do peep when it's going to be like oh this is going to be one-sided you could tell you could tell but i'm also i'm also not I'm also not a straight man so I cannot relate but I do I do know with people you can feel like

it's not reciprocal you can feel that energy when they like oh I just I came I'm here for the wings that's the gift you know and so he probably communicated that poorly but I do think that if someone asks you to come out right maybe they are paying for most of the stuff but I think it is a cute gesture to be like oh let me get you something you want you want a napkin babe i'll get you a napkin you want me to hold the door for you boo like you know yeah yeah yeah shivery can go both ways yeah let me sit with my back to the door so you can face the door just in case trouble is coming and i can die first for you hey king let me stand on the side of the road so you know the car if the car comes it'll hit me first when you come home late tap me on my shoulder

i'll roll over no no no but i agree i agree with you but also things need to be communicated better but maybe he was having a bad day and he had eight dollars left in his account maybe his check bounce oh girl you're always gonna bring it back to that bouncing checks breezy bounce on that chick ow um what did you see this week um so nick cannon father of 12 just insured his balls for 10 million dollars you know you know what i love that for him because he's knowing his worth he's like do you know how many shots i take and they actually go you miss 100 of the shots you don't take yeah so he's like hey i know that i have stuff that works it's 100 it's 100 the sperm when it hits the egg

is like, it's good. You know what I mean? It's good. Yeah, that's how Nick Cannon's sperm works. He's like, I have to ensure this

because it's 100% going through rate. And I can't say all the guys who have sperm can be as successful. I'm just saying. Nick Cannon does not

play for the Mets. I'll say that as I wear a Mets hat. What's the Mets comparison. The Mets, they play baseball. They bad or they good? What are you trying to say? I don't think they win that much.

Are the Mets good? They aight. I don't think so. Somebody fact-checked that for us. Are the Mets good? Are the Mets good? I have a couple friends who ride or die for the Mets and that's how I know that the Mets can't be that good because

why are you holding on so strong? Some teams just win and People don't have to say much. They're like, oh, I know I got the winning team. Can I tell you why I don't like the Mets over the Yankees? As somebody who doesn't care about baseball at all, I don't like the font of the NY. It's different.

Yeah, I like the Yankees font better. Well, this is given like italics. Sure. It's calligraphy. Maybe not calligraphy, but it's definitely given like serif, sheriff. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm trying to say? Yeah, I do remember.

Yes. I'm like sheriff. Whatever. I don't use that font But yeah, yeah, yeah It's Times New Roman But I think that The problem with the Mets is

Is that when you wear this People assume that you Actually like the team Yankees is universal You could just like it For the style But the Mets is like Oh, that was a choice, honey

Yeah Go Mets They be like, go Mets And I be like, Mets? Yes, Mets Oh my God Should we get Mets hats? Yes

But it should kind of be like The Mets font? No No I don't like that font I don't like that font Okay I don't like that font

Okay So wait, so you think it's a mess that Nick insured his balls? Well, because Mariah Carey insured her voice. I think Rihanna insured her legs. J-Lo's insured her ass. Since insurance has existed, people have been insuring these things. To insure your balls, so what does that mean? If someone kicks him in the nuts, he gets $10,000?

What does it mean to insure your body parts? Baby, I don't really have insurance. I don't even know what insured means. Shout out to Luigi. Can't even spell insurance. Can I say this? The craziest thing about the Luigi situation for me is that he got caught in a McDonald's. I have a conspiracy theory.

I don't think any of this is real. I think that he's the scapegoat for the person who really, I think they needed to boost something to let people know, hey, you can't just be killing CEOs. What? Yeah, he didn't really look like the guy who we saw on camera. this guy is is just too sexy too young the guy in the in the video looked older so and he didn't look as tall so what you're saying is you think there's a conspiracy and he's not the guy yep what i got from the situation is hot people need to do more crimes and they do and that's the problem is like you think that you don't think that somebody who has all their teeth and amazing

bone structure isn't pulling a fast one isn't scamming people they are scam absolutely but i'm saying just crime in general not necessarily murder but definitely hot people need to do more crimes i want to use my hotness for good oh and uh it to be and the thing is the so funny thing about uh luigi is that all these women are like all the good men are assassins I was on the train and guys was like damn these girls is on this god dick like what I need to do kill a CEO and he was like well yes make the world a better place baby if you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything thank you I just think it's weird and I don't understand how that works like you have all these kids you

gonna have more if something happens to your balls that are now insured will the insurance companies pay you like nick cannon is worth like half a million half a billion dollars really yeah he's worth a lot i mean and i think that the important thing that people who are like regular and don't have as much access or money they don't know their worth they don't know what you can actually do to um instill like a better future for yourself he knows he has people in his ears so somebody might have told him hey man you see all those kids you had that's a that's a blessing not all these some of these men got blanks they got blanks in their gun you don't you know for some people blanks is a blessing oh and you know what i wish i had more blanks

i wish i had listen it's blank now it is oh they don't work babe i don't i got no eggs now so So there it is. No frittatas happening over here. Shut up. It's an empty egg crate. Empty nesters. Yes. Oh, did you see the, so they're doing all these like lookalike contests.

They did one for Luigi. And they did? Yeah, they did. Not when we knew it was Luigi, but when it was the guy with the hood and the backpack, they had one in the park. Oh yeah. They were being really funny. That was comical.

But this one, they had an actual one for Drake in Toronto. and the videos were killing me because there were so many guys that I'm like, I guess you look like him, but it's more like the essence. But there's one dude that was supposed to be

like the bigger Drake, like, you know, thick Drake, thick Drake. And they say that he's the one that impersonates him all the time. They were like, he was robbed.

He should have won, but they ended up giving a girl. A girl one. A girl one. A lot of these kind of do look like him though. Yeah, no, it's a great lookalike. They did a great job.

They're calling all the skinny guys Ozempic Drake. Yes, yes. Sometimes I think it's cute when people are like, you look like this celebrity, but it hurts when you're not. You're just like, I don't want to look like this celebrity. I just want to be a celebrity. They all look like him except for the girl. And she won.

And honestly, and that's feminism. No, she should not have won. And she was dancing. She was dancing. She was giving it. I was like, I love how committed she was to it. She was like, this is a joke. I'm not taking this serious.

She had the beard and everything. I would like to see what's the, what is your predictions for the next lookalike? Yeah. They also had Adonis there. That's the one thing that I feel bad about TikTok being gone. There's so many funny people out there. People are really, really funny. They can still shoot all these same videos and just slide them to Instagram.

They don't hit the same. The algorithm on Instagram is not the same as TikTok. Instagram, so they say, word on the street is, they want you to put money behind promotion. What? Yes. They want you to boost more things. Instagram is out a rabbit ass mine.

The people who need to see the content will see it and those who don't will miss out. Mark Zuckerberg is not getting a dime from me. I mean, no one's getting a dime out of me. Checks do be bouncing. Tapping her foot. Girl, first of all, guns cost money and my landlord is not spending money on guns. Who do I think is the next lookalike?

Well, because we got a Timothee Chalamet. We got the we got the Zendaya. Oh, I didn't see that lookalike contest. What did that what did they look like? Biracials. She's biracial. Yeah, they were giving biracials. And a lot of the comments were just like, I see where y'all were going with that.

But also, if I was Zendaya, I would be mad because none of these girls is giving her. They did Tyla. They did Tyla. They did Rachel Sennett. I'm wondering, like, who's the next person? Trump. They should do. No.

It's going to be Trump on Inauguration Day. No. In D.C. It's going to be big, orange, blobby, toupee-wearing, lace-front, white men. girl. Are you done? They gonna do that. I don't want to hear that. That doesn't matter if you want to hear it or not. I think you asked, what do I think is the next one? I think it's gonna be

big orange lace front white men in ties that are too long and suits that are too baggy. Yeah. I don't know. I don't want to honestly, if my eyes don't work that day, I won't be mad. I won't be mad. Maybe

Paul Pascal. Pedro? Yeah, people love him. and he's a cutie too but I don't know that many people who look like him Pedro Pascal yeah

the Spanish guy girl you don't know nobody that look like that I don't know anybody who look like that you don't know nobody with a little mustache and a little tousled

bed head baby I live in East New York I know I know more people who look Haitian I know more people who look like Sean Paul

Pedro Pascal if you squint you kind of look like Sean Paul no Sean Paul is Pedro with a little seasonings stop it

wait i told the story right the story about how i was in miami we were at uh sls hotel all day getting i mean i had i had so many margaritas you my middle name was mark so we we're in the pool all day we realized oh shoot we're running late we got to get our bags because We got to go to the airport. That's how it happens in Miami always. I still have my bikini on going to the airport. I'm soaking wet. It looks like I peed on myself.

Mind you, there's traffic. So we're like, oh, we're definitely going to miss this flight. There's traffic. I have to pee. I get out of the car in the middle of the highway and I pee on the side in my wet bikini. Then we get back in the car. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Because we need the visuals here.

you pull the bikini bottoms down to pee or you pee through the bikini since it's already wet now you know I'm a classy girl so you pee through the bikini I pulled it to the side not classy peeing on the highway and I had a maxi dress on

so we get to the airport and they're like oh we actually do have some time it's not that bad we pull up to TSA I got a or like a cowboy hat on

my wet bikini long dress in my suitcase and another friend she's not nobody is in their bikini except me yeah why would you

I was like I don't have time to take it off you're like why don't you just take it off you could just be naked underneath this

I said no I don't want it loose but eventually I do take the bottoms off because I was like this is gross we're going through TSA I'm so messed up

but my eyes see so clearly that Sean Paul is about to come through TSA and I scream baby boy you stay on my mind baby boy

you look so safe and everyone is looking around and I was like oh na na na and then he get busy and so he sees me

and I was like shut up oh my god I'm screaming I'm so oh my god shut up everyone was looking

at you like that because probably no one no one knew it was him no just I'm sure no one ever reacted

that strongly to him before. No one knew it was him. He probably was looking at you too like, do I owe her money? No, he was such, and he's like a tiny guy. He's not big. He don't look big.

Yeah, and he had a mohawk and everything. And I was like, I am such a fan. I know you gotta go catch up. Can we take a picture? And so, first of all, I give him a hug soaking wet.

Wet. Soaking wet. Sean was like, still got it. I'm still in love so he gives me a hug and he's like okay and then he he takes a picture he's so you could tell he's so happy because he's like someone acknowledged me he i'm sure he was like i felt so seen i'm screaming baby boy anywho i uh i end up like sitting down for a second because i i was definitely very much so black out and i was like i lost i had a bag of like sun tanning oil that's

how you know i was hanging out with too many white people because i was like i need tanning oil sun tanning oil sun tanning oil now what is the purpose of sun tanning oil for a blick it was a band of soul so it gives me like a really bronzy glow like it wasn't just like getting darker but They were like a glow from within. Oh, girl, that's Jesus. You need the Lord for the glow. Anyways, I see that for you, but Bondel's soul came through for me. Girl, I need to see a picture of you, crispy, crunchy, blackout.

I posted it on Instagram. People were screaming. They were like, Sydney, I wish I knew you during this time. I was like, no, you don't. That was the best of times. That's the worst of times. I would have loved to be your black friend during that time. Friend, you caught me on the end of it, and you were like, I think you got a problem.

That's what you said to me while I was at my job. Because you were blackout at work. That's the problem. I said, give me my drinks back. Girl, being blackout in Miami is different than being blackout at work. I said, throw up that sandwich I just got made for you from scratch. How dare you? Oh, yeah.

Visiting friends at work. Is that mess? You know, ooh, that's good. Because that kind of ties into something that I would say kind of happened. But I think that people don't respect like the things that we do. They think it's like a pull up like, oh, we having fun. This is not really a job. It is.

We are at work and people are constantly watching us. And even if you think that people are not judging or not, look, they are. And so anybody we have around it, you are a reflection of us. And so you can't go to people's job being loose, too over familiar because you make the vibes a little weird. I had a friend come out with us at SNL and we were at an after party.

He pulls out a brand new disposable camera still in the wrapper and unwraps it and starts taking photos at the table. And I said, brother, no, no, brother, no. I was like, this is not the time.

Ugh, brother. Ugh, yeah. I mean, you know, Chris Rock was there. All these celebrities were there And it was like, nobody wants to see this big disposable camera doofy CVS flash happening at Zuma. Like, it's just not. Big doofy disposable camera flash. Is that the title? I like it.

Yeah, maybe. And maybe it's me because I am very in my head about being perceived and like people seeing us. But I don't like that. I don't like being embarrassed. I'll embarrass myself, but I don't want somebody else embarrassing me. Yeah, but you know what? i was out the other day and i was with a friend of mine and we went to get ramen and we you know we had both taken edibles we had smoked a little so we were feeling good and he was really chatty

and at one point he said he said something like somehow he was talking and i was like oh he's being kind of loud and this is kind of like silly low-key annoying wait do i know this person I don't know. But he said some stuff and people could overhear him. And I was like, oh, that's embarrassing. But the people that overheard were in on it. Like they were like, oh, yo, bro. Like they were completely feel like they were there for the vibes. They felt good. He had he had a friend. Yeah. He made friends. And I was like, oh, maybe maybe it was me. We do be in our heads. But I mean, sometimes remember when your brother came to my job and he started breakdancing, step up to dance moves in the bar was crowded.

My brother turned into it was it was shoulder to shoulder. My brother turned into black Channing Tatum. He did. And was he wearing a fedora? He was wearing a Fedora. I can't believe you weren't embarrassed, friend. I'm always embarrassed. I'm always embarrassed when he starts to breakdance. i'm always like oh here my friends are here they know me here your brother he was he formed a

circle he formed a circle like it was a dance battle and he was at a bar mitzvah yeah he started like kung fu panda backflips and all ring around the rosy it was insanity and i've got my tray and i got like four watermelon martinis and i got shots and i see your brother doing all kickflips acrobat Cirque du Soleil I said girl now

this is the first time you met him and he did that and I said girl now he cute and got abs but this too much girl you know

I was embarrassed every time he does I'm embarrassed but sometimes you just gotta let people be embarrassing yeah you have to let them

do that because I'm not your mom I'm not gonna scold you I'm not gonna be like listen listen here you little bitch this is have some decorum

we at a bar no let them do that they're grown you acting like that should not embarrass me because i'm i'm cool really that's what like i'm saying in the moment where the where the my friend was talking and i was like everybody was like and i was like oh yeah i guess it was just me okay and that's the thing i think uh that gets really like nothing is black or white but it's well it is black and because white people don't get embarrassed when they people do crazy stuff because white people are not a monolith yeah they're free they see a crazy white person doing whatever and they just

like tom's crazy yeah but a black person if i'm out and a black person is acting wild i'm like they think we came together truly think that's my ride yeah when i'm on the train and the one guy that's like being weird is like talking to me I'm like sir I don't we don't know each other stop

you're so familiar you be talking to them though because also I don't like when we ignore people who are obviously kind of going through something like you could be

that one person that changed their day and I don't want to treat them like girl this is dangerous you see it's dangerous this is crazy

why I understand I understand acknowledging somebody that's there but I also, I'm not trying to put myself in harm's way. I don't know what this person has gone through. I don't know

how they feel about young, petite, black bitches on the subway. I don't need you snapping on me. I'm moving seats. I'm moving cars. That's valid. I'm not. You sitting there, you gonna have a powwow? Not a powwow but you know, I'll chat it up a bit. You know, remember, did

I tell you a story about the guy named Machiavelli? Yes. Machiavelli. That you met on the train, the rapper. Yes, the rapper. He was and I honestly think he was pretty good girl he wasn't he wasn't terrible i would i didn't i at first i was like now i have i have some money i have some money in my purse and we know you have you have 452 dollars in your purse i had a couple dollars i had a couple dollars with machiavelli and he's chatting and i'm like all right man like he after i gave him the money he would not move and i'm like i yeah

girl because he saw you pull out your passport and unfold several hundred dollars and you gave And what did you give him, like a 10 or a 20? Oh, girl, I gave him $5. And, you know, he's talking. I said, fine. Then he's like, can you follow me? Sir, I gave you $5. That is your follow, okay?

Follow for five. Yeah, but it made me think it's like I am so embarrassed by peddling my jokes or like things that I'm doing and it's hard for me to promote. this man got five dollars from me and then he said i need you to follow me so you know what maybe i need to move in the world more like macaveli be more like macaveli don't you agree i think we need to get out of our own heads um that is mess the people thinking that oh like i love the brain but then i'm also like throw it away throw it in the trash throw it away because it's it you at the end of the day you realize it's like it's never that serious it

never was it will never be that serious and it's just like have fun throw things at the wall if it doesn't work out who cares but when you think about the people who seem to be the happiest people that you know yeah just like think about the person that you feel like oh that person seems to be pretty happy you have somebody in your head it's usually somebody who like they march to the beat of their own drum they like wear what they want it's usually something real weird or Miss Frizzly or whatever but they wear it they maybe they have like a scooter or a Vespa or something stupid they like drive a Fiat or something you know what I'm saying like they they they don't drive the cool thing or wear the cool stuff or say the right they just do

they just be yeah I think that's important yes you just I think we got to get out of our own heads and just like for me if I if something makes me happy I'm going to do it if something doesn't make me i mean i've been saying this for years now but like you know when you're old and gray yeah right in a hundred years and you sitting in your house thinking about your life you're gonna be like a whole house bitch i can't get an apartment right now you're talking about house a whole house thank you friend i'm triggered i am motherfucking triggered friend do you know me sydney in a hundred years in two years i don't know i don't know the way the landlords got their hard bottoms

Listen, if I'm being honest with you about what I'm doing, there's no surprises I'm in and out yeah but that's also that's also a scary thing is like I think it's weird when you uh tell somebody how you feel and what you do and they still go through with whatever no no no it's okay I want to do yeah but that's just confirmation that you're awesome and the way that the delusion that you live I can you spread that spread that

Honey, all on me. Every week, every Tuesday, I come here and I spread my DeLulu, the gospel of, you know, be all that you can be or be trash. Be all you can be. That might be the title, friend. I'm not mad at that. Thank you so much. But I do this all the time. Yeah.

And you know why I'm allowed to be delusional? I'm not in my head. Are you ready? Are you ready for the messages? Yeah. Thank you, guys. You guys are doing so well with the messages. We're really proud of you.

You're working very hard. You're spilling. You're opening. you're being transparent and uh you're making them long but short long but short we're getting to the point you're setting the scene and we're getting in and we're getting out and we appreciate that uh so this one is a family mess to share hi sydney and marie first of all i just want to say i'm a huge fan of mess oh thank you uh i've been binging your episodes and thought who better to turned to with my family mess than you two our hearts so open for you uh here's the situation

for context we are african i have an older brother who's irresponsible at best and delusional at worst he has a family of seven and has never held down a steady job world away you dragging your brother are you sure it's your brother whoa but also it checks out yes his wife is the breadwinner and works tirelessly to provide while he bounces from one poorly planned entrepreneurial venture to the next.

Damn, you ain't here for your brother, sis. Meanwhile, I've been grinding since college, working hard, and that's usually how it is for the ladies. Building my career and securing my future.

I'm in the C-suite now and I've made wise decisions with money. And now my family reaps the benefits, travel, best schools for my kids, and solid investment. I've done the work

and I'm proud of where I am. Okay, girl. Okay, period. Dude, listen. Boost yourself up. You deserve. Okay, here's where the mess comes in. Okay.

A few years ago, a family friend offered our family, not just me, an amazing deal on a house from a recently deceased relative. We already know how this is about to go. I was the only one in the family with the right debt-to-income ratio,

credit, and financial standing. So everyone convinced me to buy it. Real estate is always a good investment, right? Mm-hmm. Girl, well, the investment turned into my brother and his family moving in because, of course, they had nowhere else to go. Damn, Gina. But I thought the wife was a breadwinner. She must not be winning enough bread.

No, she's winning the bread. But, you know, the brother probably convinced, like, why do we need to get another house? We already got one in the family. OK, so he swore he'd get a stable job and pay rent. But you already know how that turned out. his wife is breaking her back trying to cover their expenses and now it's become too much for them to even pay me the rent consistently some months i don't even get anything other months i get rent in pieces over the course of months oh it's giving karma honey i've had enough i told

them it's time to sell the house so i can get out of this mess and cut my ties now the whole family is mad at me they're acting like i'm the villain here and i'm tired of enabling his irresponsibility am i the asshole for wanting to sell or is my brother the real problem here would love your thoughts love y'all oh girl girl you are beautiful with this thank you this was this is guys if you ever want to know how to write us something this it had details it had a twist she was dragging she boosts herself thank you marie what's your thoughts um i think in a lot of families that have a girl and a boy the the sons usually get babied so i'm not surprised that they're like you should support your brother like i don't want to support him and his seven kids or i mean five

kids and his wife but yeah i think that it's kind of easy to jump into a situation and be like this is family you'll get the money when i got it no i want it now yeah i i hate saying this on the record but I don't F with my family like that even though we blood and stuff like I pick the people I want in my life which sometimes sucks because now I feel like I'm just leaning on

this chosen family of mine but no you don't get to just be related to me and then all of a sudden have all these demands or tell me what I'm supposed to do it's not happening I work too hard I spent money to buy this house

and I don't know nothing about home ownership maybe you maybe y'all i don't i don't olivia get an apartment baby apartment ownership okay apartment rentership i don't know how homeowning works but like after you buy it you still got to pay taxes every month i think right it's like mortgage like you put money down and then the mortgage is to like for maintenance so i'm housing y'all yes no yes you gotta go you gotta go but What about the kids? Did I give birth to them? What about the kids?

What about the kids? The kids need to know their dad is a bum, and therefore, they will grow up to not be bums. Don't enable the babies. You come from a long line of bums, baby. My father was a bum. My grandfather was a bum. My grandfather's father was a bum.

My father's father was a bum. Yes. Yeah, no. The bum of bees. No. The secret life of bums. Yes, girl. But don't feel, I know it's a lot.

I'm sure it's stressful. And I know that the family is putting pressure on you and making you feel bad. Tell the family how much he owes you. And tell them to either settle the balance or the house got to go. Yeah, you got to find this money. Like any landlord, you got to find this money. And if you ain't got it, we got to get other tenants in here. Or we got to sell it.

It's not even that. She said she's ready to sell it. She don't even want the responsibility of being a homeowner. It's a lot. And I have friends who have, we have friends that have homes. And they're like, baby, you that's why they're working so hard, because it's not like you just buy a home and then you don't have to worry anymore. There's so much money that goes into maintaining a house. So, like, you know, I think Beyonce and Jay-Z bought a house for like seventy four million dollars or something like that.

After you pay that seventy four million dollars, you still got to pay money. Like, I can't just I'm not done. Well, maybe with them, because they have the actual money, they probably paid it off. But you still have to maintain. it doesn't you don't just buy a home and just let it go right

like Swiss Beats yeah you gotta get the snails done you gotta get it waxed you gotta trim the hedges and whatnot you got the hyaluronic acid on the outside

yeah there's a lot of work that goes into it so maybe they just were able to pay it cash right and then move from there but a lot of people they getting them loans

they're paying a certain amount and then they have to pay you know four thousand eight thousand dollars a month so yeah
