The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed.
Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it.
Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mentioned only so the babies out there
will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby?
Hey everybody, welcome my brother and my brother and me. It's an advice show for the modern
Scarra. And that means we go from goops to spooks here on the show. No more jokes to be found,
only pokes at your grave. That's too scary. In fact, that's not even scary. My brother and me,
we're going to murder you. Yeah, it's not scary as much as it is like modeling and threatening.
I don't want to be modeling or threatening. I want to be Frankenstein. Whatever Frankenstein
that kind of scary. Hi, I'm your oldest brother, Frankenstein. I'm your most brother over the wolf
man. I'm your baby brother, Osama bin Laden. He's pretty scary guy though, I bet. He had a run
for a certain. Have you ever noticed that the wolf man's never on the FBI's most wanted list?
But why are we doing more to stop the wolf man? Can't stop people from breaking into the White House?
Maybe we could redirect our efforts. The White House, that's a lost cause. We can't
worry about that anymore. But what we can stop is a wolf man. We need to start like a wolf man
program where they can turn themselves in on the 29 other days and like get amnesty and be locked in
some kind of like silver cage. What if you saw a wolf man and you were like, hey, wolf man's got
nards and he was like, I had a vasectomy. I'm a person. Vasectomy doesn't. Oh, Justin, I have
so many things to tell you about vasectomies, brother. They don't just like get all that
stuff out of there. First, before you start like getting all getting all fucking patronizing,
tell me how much you know about wolf man anatomy, specifically genitalia. They got before you start
trying to contradict my goof. I can tell you I know a lot about human dicks and I know a lot
about wolf dicks. So I'm just going to conflate those two knowledge bases. The fucking classic
example of dealing with the wolf man. That's what the mistake everybody makes is thinking he's
half wolf and half man. He's something else entirely. And his nards are on his shoulder.
And his nards are on his shoulder. It's not. Monster camp has established that is not the
truth. Monster camp, monster team, monster, monsters, friends, squad. Super fun monster
weekend. Ass. Weekend at monsters. Why don't we have any jokes? I took that seriously, huh?
And I said that we weren't going to do goofs anymore. I guess I was being fucking
a little bit of grain of truth there with no jokes, no nothing funny. You know,
the problem is we're recording on a Monday and I have a case of them.
There was one. There was one right there, Justin. See, don't sell ourselves short. You got one.
That's one. And it took it took us five minutes to get there. So if we keep that up,
we're going to have like 12 or 13 goose in this episode. And that's I think that's pretty much on
par. Let's just get into the advice and hopefully our dear listeners will rescue us from the
I'm going to go ahead and say a very spooky slump.
Your favorite podcast isn't as funny as it used to be.
I miss Bramble Pelt. I get it. We fucking get it. Okay, people do a horse thing. We're not
fucking clowns. We're not. We're not. We're not your fucking organ grinder monkeys. We're human
beings with real life responsibilities. Sometimes much like Tim and Eric, we want to pretend we
were intentionally unfunny. Exactly. Can you just give us that once a year? Maybe once like 12
times a year. I know a guy who's very clearly crushing on me. I have told him I'm not interested
in dating him twice actually, but I think he forgot the first time. No, he didn't. He didn't.
I would like to remain friends with him because despite him not being the sharpest pit in the
cushion, he's fun to be around. So how can I get this through to this guy that I as a chick who
is not into dudes? Okay, we'll never want to date him. How is he fucking this up this hard?
Hey, it's the biggest fuck up you can do. Remind me real quick. What did you say
when I asked you out last time? Was it a yes or a no? Was it a yes or no? Are we dating now?
Because I can't remember. Let me look at my Facebook. Was it a yes or a no or I'm a lesbian?
Which of those was it? Was it like 100% no? Okay, cool. Great. I'll ask you again in like a week.
It's hard. Like it's fucking hard. Like I try not to cast dispersions on people that I know
two sentences about, but it's like this doesn't sound like a person that like wants to be your
friend if they don't if they don't take no as an answer and then they also don't take I'm a lesbian
as an answer. I don't I don't care how fun you are to be around. If you're going to backseat drive
on my sexual identity, I prefer you just get out the car. I always take I'm a lesbian
for an answer. No matter what the question is, no matter what the question is, you can say that
shit on jeopardy. What is I'm a lesbian? And then Trebek's like, yep, got it again. God,
you're doing really great. Ken Jennings. And for $1,000, the answer is I'm just going to take
some time away from you right now. The question is I'm a lesbian. What is it? What is it? It's like
when women like other women, Alex, why don't you know this? How do you know everything in the world
but not this thing blind spot weird? You're like a super smart anyway. I don't think that somebody
is I think it like not a joke if he's not on board with like your sexual preference. I don't think
you guys are friends. I don't think this is like a question of him picking up the clues or picking
up the hints or getting it. I don't think it's that he's not the sharpest pin in the cushion
if you say I think it's that he's just like, no, I'm going to change your mind. And like,
you don't want to be friends with that person regardless. Oh, there's nothing worse than that.
It's hard. It's hard because like we are we have long been in the camp of like if you have feelings
for somebody, tell them. And it's hard to like reconcile that with like, tell them just the
once. And then if that's not a if it's a no go, because they don't prefer then fucking don't keep
doing it. Then we need to rephrase it and say like just tell her dummy and then listen carefully
and listen so careful. Oh man, listen so good to the next part. It's vital information.
If you're to have a next step, your next step is going to be determined by the next things that
are said and you should be on board with that. Otherwise, you're just like watching her mouth
move but in your head thing like I did it. I asked her speaking. I haven't been listening. Oh shit.
Did she say yes? Did she say thespian shit? Okay.
Actor no actor. That's all right. I'll bring in bacon while you audition.
What a shit show. Yikes. Oh, this is this is I just don't think this person's worth spending
time with anymore. Here is what here's the argument that I would make as to that without
again, we don't know this cat. Maybe he is a sweetheart but picking up on context clues.
This is the painting that I'm gay right now. This is someone who's asked you out and not only did
he not take no for an answer. He actually like is in denial about who you are as a person
in the hopes that you will change your mind about a lot of things and not just his
fucking broken down personality and look his whole situation. I think he is just in it because he
wants to date you. I'm not sure somebody like that wants to be your friend personally. It's
such an uncomfortable thing for both parties and for like it's uncomfortable the first time
and that's why people are afraid to do it to keep doing it to keep subjecting you to that
discomfort is like is weirdly cruel. To himself right? To himself to you it's it's uncomfortable
for everyone. It's uncomfortable for me and I don't even fucking know your real name. It's
a comfort for our listeners who have not been subjected to this third hand. There are 30 million
people who are uncomfortable now. We have 30 million listeners. We're basically the we're
basically the big bank theory. Bazoon Joes. Bazooka Joch. Hey here's a yahoo ascended by
Rachel Sperling. Thank you Rachel. It's by yahoo answers user Nina. It's in the pregnancy and
parenting newborn baby section so Justin. I should be able to feel this one. Yeah uh Nina asks
why does my baby have forehead lines? I just have my son a week ago and he was born with
lines on his forehead. The kind of older people get from raising raising their eyebrows too much
worrying and stuff like that. Well why does my baby have them? I have never before seen or heard of
babies having them. Is it normal? I keep convincing myself that it's my fault because I literally
stressed every day while I was pregnant. I know only time can tell but do you think he'll always
have these lines or is there a chance he'll go away as he gets older? Again he had them
right when he came out of me. The world's scowliest baby. I think that uh I've never heard of a baby
with worry lines but based on the information provided to me in this yahoo answer I do think
this baby has cause for concern. R.E. his parental situation. I think that he may have some room
to worry. Well I think the most worrying thing of this whole situation is that this woman doesn't
know the word wrinkles. You know like those lines like old people get them? You know it's like when
the skin kind of like together you know like a butt crack on their face you know you know.
Oh boy it's I have never seen a baby. I would be distressed if I worked really hard to have a baby
well my wife would but then that baby came out and looked like fucking William Daniels. I would be
heartbroken. I wanted a new human being and this human being looks like William Daniels mustache
and all. Maybe that's it maybe like there's a like knowing soul trapped inside the baby who can't
communicate because it's a baby and like all they can do is like scowl and furrow their brow and try
to figure out a way out of this. Oh my god is it a Benjamin Button? Is this the first you got
old man baby the first evidence the first Benjamin Button in the wild. The baby was born with wrinkles
and tattoos and pierced things. And glasses. It was bilingual. I haven't seen the movie.
What is the return policy here? On the baby? Oh I can feel this one. I ain't got none.
Really? You would think that they would have some sort of like right now my baby has hair on the
top of her head and then the rest of her hair is sort of sliding down like a reverse bald spot
of like kind of a Wallace Sean thing going on. I'm like oh boy what is I'm checking for warranties
looking for the receipts. I don't have any receipts. I have a social security number.
Oops mine for good. Can you trade her out with one of those like spare babies?
Spare uh no actually they do not include burner babies with your baby. It's pretty much just
the yeah. So Cabell Cablehunter didn't have a uh have a baby give a baby need a baby take a baby
system going on. No. Just like a tray. Like a little bowl on the front desk. Just a little bowl
there on the front desk next to the peppermint swirls. They apparently used to have one but now
they have these bracelets on their legs that beep when you try to participate in that particular
program. Oh I'm sorry I thought this was my baby. I am so embarrassed. I did bring a watermelon
wrapped in a blanket that I was gonna. But that was for eating I promise. I I have to assume
that babies when they are born because they don't have like shit like you know marrow or
that stuff that connects your bones um and so I imagine that babies are like the most pliable
you are as a human being so you could probably nip tuck that stuff pretty easy and just sort of
yeah you just get a chip clip pull the skin back you just chip clip it and then just clip your baby
just chip clip it all I'm saying is that if much of society thinks it's permissible to cut the tip
of a baby's wiener off yep because it won't remember this seems like a perfect time for it to go under
the knife to get uh a tuck a nip tuck so face facelift you're saying you are saying cut I'm
cut the tip and clip the chip clip the chip and cut the tip get your baby looking as fresh as the day
he was not even the day he was born I suppose but maybe the few weeks ago when he was looking all
right change your kind of friend change your William Daniels into a Bill Daniels who's a young actor
Bill Daniels turn your William Daniels into a Daniel Ratcliffe that works is fine but he has
some lines he has some unsightly lines too well it's a lightning bolt okay don't even be an asshole
about it I'm a 25 year old student I'm in a pickle vast majority of my friends are women
all the way from high school through uni excuse me college thank you and the various places where
I've been employed I'm perfectly fine with this I enjoy their company and I don't feel like I'm
missing anything by not having a group of male friends to bro out with so I'm assuming this is
this is a man writing this however I'm not doing so well in the romantic scene whenever I tried
to ask a girl out I got rejected even when she was a lesbian stop whoa no it doesn't say that I
don't need any help getting out of the friend zone that concept is stupid uh and besides I'm quite
fine with keeping my friends as friends I just don't understand why I seem to get along with women
so well in a platonic context but fail miss really whatever I tried to find that special
someone help me out brothers how do I find that other half of my life that I'm missing and that's
from Love Lorne in the Levant oh that's a great that's a great pen name um
Jesus Christ Almighty I we're gonna I feel like we're about to get into some shit here
I think I think we're about to get in the shit put on your muck boots and just jump right in I
because like yeah I think a lot of people are like this I know I certainly was I think it's safe
to say like coming up most of my friends were you know theater friends all the way up through
like high school um and and even a lot of college and so a lot of those theater friends were women
and I was really good friends with a lot of women but not such great friends with sex
I was not me and me and basically any erotic activity were not how I say this acquainted
right I mean the answer to your question is right there in the question you you've been
friend you may making friends with women from high school all the way to university and and
for for a decade now um and you are are comfortable with that that idea you're comfortable with that
relationship you're practiced in like the social ramifications of of those relationships and you
just haven't practiced outside of that so like it makes it's not that surprising that you would get
good at the thing that you have done over and over and over again I think the secret is you've
got to start back at scratch a little bit when you're talking about uh uh something that could be
more romantic like you you have to give yourself permission to be kind of a a neophyte when it
comes to that because it sounds like you don't have nearly the amount of experience do you think
that those two ideas are mutually exclusive though because I might just be like conflating them in a
way that doesn't make any sense because like I it's super super super great that you recognize
that the friendzone idea is bullshit and and that nobody should you know treat treat their pool of
of friends who are female as like a potential grazing ground if only you know how to make
that conversion like that's a super fucked up way to to think and that's great that you understand
that but like is there is there some sort of is there is there some sort of connection between
knowing how to be friends with women without being gross about it and not being especially
romantic I don't think no I don't think that the the I don't think it's about being friends with
women I think it's just about being friends like you you are good at being friends you are not so
good at romance because you haven't practiced as much I think okay this is so thorny I know it
really is like I don't it's really the thing that's hard about it is like we are I a I know
we're approaching this from like a like really crazy heteronormative like position so I keep
getting tripped up on like gender pronouns and and what have you I don't think anything we're
talking about is like exclusive to anyone's sex or gender or anything I mean I I think that it is
completely applicable to no matter where you fall on the the gender and sexuality spectrum I think
that any I think all that I'm getting at is that romantic relationships are a different skill set
and it's a different thing that you need to learn and and part of the the reason you're being so
successful with with making friends with with uh these people and not and not in like a romantic
sense is because when you're making friends with people you're not putting any pressure on yourself
exactly yeah it's the exact same way as when you're in like a a committed relationship you seem to do
better with people who would find you repellent before it's because you're you're you're not
playing the game you're not you're not putting a bunch of pressure on yourself you're just being
yourself I will also say this it makes me think about um you know like when you get out of a long
relationship and then the next time like you get back in the dating pool the problem you run into
is trying to jump too quickly to the level you were at in your previous relationship
and like that can screw things up and like you're coming into it going oh I'm so rusty I'm so used
to being in the relationship maybe that same thing is applying here where it's like you're so used to
being in a friendship that you're just like trying to jump to that level of comfort with the person
because I don't think that's I don't think that's necessarily unhealthy I think what Justin said
was exactly right which is the only distinction between those different skill sets is the pressure
that you put on yourself when you are when you are trying to pursue a romantic relationship with
somebody it did you think but isn't that pressure kind of good because it makes you like you know
performance you're best and like try your best with a person for some people but like I that that
pressure I think is is nominal and you don't there are people who let it just fucking wreck everything
and and and that is that's where you need to pump the the brakes a little bit and knowing nothing
about your situation I would say that that you know might be the most likely thing of like
well this has to be different from how I treat my other friends when really like relationships
like romantic relationships are just friendship with well but that extra fire you know what I mean
whoa so beautiful that's beautiful we've been talking very very seriously for a while and I
hope we didn't fart some poop yeah okay who are those guys should we have a yahoo yeah a yahoo would
be great your friend uh this yahoo uh was sent in by level 451 yahoo shaman drew Davenport uh
this yahdru was asked by yahdru answers user Sadie who asks haunted corn maze actor tips please
I'm working in a maze this year and my character is a saloon girl cannibal and I can't think of
anything to say what would be scary to you okay how about another bottle of sasper killer okay
so I'm not sure that a portmanteau is like I know that you're fucking terrified of those things
when people put two words together that should be a part ah no thanks yeah I mean I'm terrified of
them for a good reason though I mean look at how I brought this show to a screeching halt yeah
how about this like uh hey cowboy better get pretty hungry out there on the range care for a bite
because she's a she's a cannibal that's like a slow that's like a line where are you going
wait I haven't finished my sentence that's like sounds like she's trying to like seduce him and eat
him like a praying mantis right it sounds like a line from old west species but also is that not
what's going on it's just not how corn mazes work where you jump out and you're like he's gone
you're like brah hey there cowboy you look hungry because you've been out on the range you've been
taking the long road from tuska lusa and it looks to me like ah shit another one oh I I I know just
jump out and yell I got my masters for this yeah I went to I went to corn maze school
I was on three episodes of uh uh days of our lives from a from a day player on psych to this
I why do you need characters in a corn maze well a corn a corn maze is the fucking scariest
imaginable place that you can be a you could die in there you could just get lost and die in there
it happens every year there's like 30 deaths it's like more than um more than shark bites um
b and way more than shark tank b it goes it goes corn maze corn mazes shark attack and then
pop machines falling over on people that's exactly right b corn is the scariest vegetable it looks
like a knife it looks like a knife it's got a fucking hilt it has its own scabbard so maybe a
sword knives typically don't have scabbards or hilts um see scarecrows right it's just there it's
just right there I just why not why not just like wear a scary mask and jump out do you think the guy
who invented the scarecrow like on the day he invented it he was like oh that's pretty and he
invented it during the daytime and he was like I gotta figure out something to do to get rid of
these crows wait a minute I got it I'll make a scarecrow and he made it up in the daytime he was
like pretty good invention stole Tommy man I think I crushed it and then that first night
he looks out the window is like what the fuck have I done this is this day Martha come look at this
shit I'm losing my mind look what I did I made the scariest thing ever so now I'm a I'm a nightmare
weaver Martha I'm a nightmare weaver I am Edgar Allen Poe I made it I made a scare human is what
I'm Stephen King senior senior senior and I can't believe I just created this terrifying vision
I was at Home Depot the other day buying a fire pit and they had their you know they had their
autumn regalia out and there was a fucking scarecrow that was just like propped out in the garden
section and there were actually crows on it like actual crows just like chilling pretty good scare
pretty good job inventor of the scarecrow you invented things that can only scare humans
and nothing else well done sir no the world wasn't scary enough let's go ahead and get more
stuff and make sure that we surround it with knife-shaped produce terrific job the worst part
about that is that guy had to watch all the time to see if it was working he just had to stare at
that thing maybe set up like an old-timey lawn chair next to it and just see if the crows were
and eventually they became friends I lost a shoe in a corn maze once do you remember those books
that like you used to buy there was scholastic book fair that were like scary story six or whatever
yeah goose pin goose pimples they were scary as fuck there was one about like a scarecrow that
like peeled people's skin off and laid it out to dry on a barn or some shit yeah and but it was
actually Richard gear dressed up like a scarecrow I think that's the plot of the hit West Virginia
made film dark harvest Richard starring I can't believe they got Richard gear in that independent
film production yeah but actually that's funny Richard gear is in the mothman movie which is
set right he was not that much of a stretch he was in wv he was like let me swing by for dark
harvest but I'm also get into dark harvest real quick I'll play a scarecrow it'll be easy for me
because I do that shit in real life every scarecrow you see the Richard gears in there somewhere
and he wants your skin he would love it he would love nothing it always tastes looking so young
he would love nothing more than to take your skin put it on himself get rid of those fucking
William Daniels wrinkles when he does that charming Richard gear wink that's his eyelids
get falling off and he's trying to scoot it back and play there's a there's a special
motion graphics designer that works on every fucking film he's in that has to edit that
shit out that has to edit off this edit out the sloughing of his skin to the floor guys if one
celebrity besides Richard gear had to be every scarecrow which actor or actress do you think would
be is like the most like a scarecrow I think Jeff Goldblum is very much like a scarecrow well that's
not fair no he's like a he's like an american treasure I love Jeff Goldblum are you saying
because he has the dimensions of a scarecrow is that what you're saying because that's that's
I'm hateful I'm just saying if it turned out he was a scarecrow the whole time I wouldn't be
surprised but shimmy too well that's okay I'm sorry just I hate to call you on some antics but
you wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that Jeff Goldblum just fell over at the Oscars
and a bunch of straw poured out of him you'd be like I fucking knew it I told everyone I'm 33 it's
very hard to surprise me we met Jeff Goldblum uh outside the the show door at the Rainmaker
and I lit a cigarette and he lost his fucking mind explain that he said like what hey he said uh oh
no no no uh no no no that's my Jeff Goldblum impression yeah sounds a little bit like Yogi
Bear no no no we must we must get away we must get away from the the cigarette hey no no no no

through 21st oh shit breaking news we've got some farm wisdom farm wisdom put your scarecrow in the
barn farm and then light that barn on fire stop him any way stop him however you can with him
because I would like you to read it please okay uh this is uh the worst thing I've ever read this
is the worst this is the world's worst sentence thank you for listening my brother my brother and me
this is the world's worst sentence you're hearing the debut of the world's worst sentence right now
here it comes all right you're not your life is not going to be the same this is going to be the
moment that you'll always remember of where it all started to go bad your whole there's still time
to get out there's still time to leave before the world's worst sentence billy goats pee in their
mouth and beard when they're horny and that's from Cassandra and Micah who just ruined the lives of
30 million people what what what Cassandra and Micah do not include is the phrase on purpose
is it like an accident thing is it like they're like so horny the shit not again
ah man not again piss beard I gotta stop getting so horny and then being on myself horny all the
time uh hey Greg uh yeah Mitch what's going on yeah Greg uh just so you know I noticed that when my
wife stopped by earlier this week you know Darla yeah I know Darla yeah I noticed when she's stopped by
your beard smelled like piss and I I want you to explain that to me right now or our friendship
the reason for that and I think I figured it out is that I watched you piss in your mouth and
beard so so should we dissect this is there something we need to talk about is there something
going on here what I want to find out but I'm not willing to look it up is if it's like they do it
and react to it or if it's just like something that happens and they just stand there continuing to
be horny gently peeing in their mouths and beards do you think that's why they eat all that garbage
because they're trying to find something to feel like garbage it's I feel like garbage
I deserve it look at me I'm a monster it's it's super weird this past summer I went and saw
disney planes fire and rescue and I started pissing in my mouth and beard so I guess is it
planes talking planes do it do it for me is it maybe the whole cards universe
I'm changing I'm metamorphosizing because fucking Cassandra and Micah just ruined my life
thanks for nothing Cassandra and Micah for that sentence
do you think Zambonis are the fat people of the cards first probably not how about a question
I'm very awkward when it comes to receiving compliments and although it's very nice to hear
that someone likes something I'm wearing or my new haircut I always have some very odd responses
I have a terrible habit of needing to respond where I got something or how I got it as soon as
it's acknowledged now if getting these things from somewhere interesting or I had a cool story
behind them that might be different but most of my clothes I get second hand or I cut my own hair
so our conversation usually ends in a lull where the person stares at me waiting for some sort of
point to my story brothers how can I learn to respond to things without going on long and boring
tangents uh not unlike this question okay wait I want to play this out just I need you to compliment
my hair okay okay hey Trevor your hair cut looks good I cut it myself I did yeah it's pretty bad
can I you know I was laughing when you were reading that question I came to the slow and
horrifying realization that nobody in the fullness of my lifetime has ever asked me where I got an
article of clothing or haircut in my life ever is my shit super busted is it because I only wear
clothes I bought at Target and Target clothes are designed to be almost camouflage-esque almost
like razzle dazzle they're super fucking hard to like get a lock on my clothes because they're so
normal on my mossimo jeans where did you get those mossimo jeans I must know was it target the only
place where they have those are you even wearing jeans right now I'm trying to focus on the bottom
half of your body and I can't I'm trying to focus on the slides off here I'm trying to focus on the
same two flannel shirts you've bought 20 times but it doesn't seem to stick for some reason you
literally blend in with everything where did you get your hair buzzed with a size six guard every
fucking time for the past seven years I must know hey somebody do that what do you call that oh I
call it the same haircut I've gotten for a long long time uh no Rachel doesn't for me in our backyard
it's pretty good uh money saving tip have Rachel cut your hair have have my wife cut your hair in
our backyard she does a great job she gets a little nervous about cutting the bangs which I don't
blame her because that is the money in zone that's my money zone you know where this gets awkward
is I have a shirt that I uh made with Justin Russo uh we we had a clothing line uh for a while
called 100 Juddalo because I thought it was pretty funny to replace Jug in Juggalo with Judd and make
a shirt that said 100 Juddalo and it had a picture of the Judds on it and I will occasionally receive
compliments on this shirt and then I have to look this person straight in the eye and say
thanks I'm an idiot thanks I've made I think I'm a stupid animal I feel like five so if you want
but if the question is I need an interesting response I don't feel like you get more interesting
than thanks I made it myself and then they go what no you didn't yes I did because I thought it
was funny but now I feel stupid I guess I guess that's true I the problem is I forgot the link
for so long that I can't tell people where to get their own geocities.com slash 100 juddalo
as it turns out it's juddalo.spreadshirt.com uh and apparently uh the last tweet from
at juddalo juddalo apparel official twitter account was uh June of 2012 and I said the people who
spoke in juddalo begins work on its Judd Nelson shirt coming. That lies empty promises uh so that
that is that is uh not a thriving I thought that would get me out of the podcast racket uh but
but uh it it did not. Justin I feel like more than either of us you you have a lot of uh distinctive
apparel uh in in the form of your I mean obviously the the gold standard is your fat mama t-shirt
a t-shirt a t-shirt celebrating the uh personal brand of fat mama uh who you might know
you won't know uh from the television show who wants to be a superhero starring stan lee
mm-hmm I do have a uh uh fat mama shirt that I bought from fat mom the problem is I can't
see that shirt in the dark oh wait I can because it does because it does glow in the dark and of
course there is a donut. I have gotten to a point another fun fun uh uh tidbit about my wardrobe
is that uh my my in-laws Sydney's family uh have made trips to Tybee Island in Georgia for a long
time uh they that that has been their their vacation spot of choice for the past five years or so
and every time they went they were bringing back a uh uh a Tybee Island t-shirt that they
purchased and since I've been going going with them I have continued the tradition by buying
Tybee Island t-shirts uh so I started getting them like ironically like I laughed because
her little sister picked them out and she was like six or seven at the time so they maybe uh uh
weren't the most fashion forward and then all of a sudden it turned out that half of the clothes I
own say Tybee Island on them somewhere along with some of their rejoinder like uh uh it's five o'clock
somewhere this is Tybe Island this is breaking breaking Southern California news Jesse Thorne
is burst into flames somewhere and nobody knows why you've been listening you've been listening
to take this off starring the McElroy brothers beach t-shirts relax me now I don't know what it is
we're killing fashion one shirt at a time take that I so so sue me it's October in West Virginia
I'd like to live on island time for a day you cut me some slack I have Spotify open right now on my
computer do you want me to blast you do you want me to put you on blast because I got your history

buffett what the fuck happened to you are you are you fucking possessed you used to be my brother
I had a case of the mondays I had this whole monday blues you know just trying to chase away
I just want to remind people of the concept of the show is that Justin makes up one third of the
team that feels qualified to tell other people how to live there how did you fuck all
you guys want to yeah do you guys want to yahoo sure this yahoo is sent in by justin rubio thank
you justin it's by yahoo answers user jb who asks best fast rap hip hop songs to have sex to
I love really fast and loud hip hop songs eg drop by timbaland and magoo is that a person
I believe so yeah or songs like lip gloss by lil mama I also like fast paced club music like warp
1.9 by the bloody beat roots that's fake thanks fast rap hip hop songs to have sex to
um I like that mystical track hit me that'd be a good one that's pretty good I like bombs
over bag that by outcast except if you do that the friction would like break all the bones in both
your bodies is there a point at which it becomes so sexy that it stops being sexy like anaconda
uh that's the least erotic song I think the great job you made a song about butts which are
basically the best part that any of us have and you just kind of ruined it you just kind of ruined
the whole sort of concept of what a butt can be it did come out of the point where there are like
six other butt songs though that is true I didn't get that all about the that bass was about
so I got confused and I was talking to friends about this the other day is all about that bass
about um big butts or is it about like them actually preferring like the low parts of songs
Griffin the bridge is I'm bringing booty back it just seems like I want her to pick one thing or the
other but she's all about that bass you know what I mean like like you know like you're not comfortable
with the double entendre I just don't is do you like the song by J.Lo in iggy azalea simply called
booty is that clearer to you does that like fit more into your concept I do yeah I do I do and
I'll tell you why it's because what are we all about booty fantastic thank you me too what are you
all about I'm about bass like the low parts of music but I also butts and it's like I have I've
got a hit bubba sparks featuring yin and yang's track for you what Griffin called miss new booty
okay we're in the yin and yang twins just say booty booty booty yeah no that's that's fantastic
that's so many songs about booty but not a lot of songs about breasts that's a group that's a
great point I mean you never hear a song that's like I like big boobs they're pretty great brass
everywhere brass brass everywhere Travis you're apparently not familiar with sir mix lots less
popular follow-up put them on the glass uh but but but we sorry Travis uh sorry Travis put them
on the glass uh my ticket could edit in a little put them on the glass for me uh I just did and
it was great um I put them on the glass terrific I think to get back to my point about all about
that bass is I think I just think it could be two songs I think she could have one song that's like
isn't the low parts of music really great and then another song that's like hey now
now that we're done with that other song let's talk about butts for a little while I don't think
that's too much to say with like a like a like queen did with we will rock you and we are the
champion that's exactly what I'm saying it's a two-part song I'm saying it's like uh the pure
prairie league Amy into uh in and out of love with you I'm saying it's it's four-play long time
I'm saying it's let's talk about butts okay next part of the song this is her Leila and weird
ending of Leila that's what I'm saying Travis that's what I was just about to say why did Eric
clap to ruin Leila by putting a part at the end that's not as good as the rest of the song now please
listen to this for another three minutes you already started listening to this and hear some
words of the song I hope you weren't looking for the next song on the radio because it's gonna be
a while I'm saying we have a brain stew situation on our hands or we could I think it would be a
improved thing it could be like all about that bass about that bass no treble and butts are cool
and butts are great they are better when they're big that's what my mom said that's just a prototype
I'm assuming you're gonna smooth out some of these baby wrinkles butts and butts and butts and butts
good job butts keep it up hey butts let's talk about you now you have nothing to do with music
hey hey hey hey hey and then it's mostly hey after that I would buy that track it's a good track
it's two tracks double your money that's it this is what I'm saying so many young artists musical
artists are fucking broke nowadays all of your favorites coldplay they have nothing they have
no money they have no dollars they're talking about butts and music I'm about butts and music
exactly um sorry travis sorry hold on breaking news travis you're uh you're fucking uh 100 lives
of black jack savage pull has just been outdone by your obscure reference to the hit musical a new
brain yes starting the guy from caroline in the city whoo it was so it couldn't be done it was so
obscure that I didn't even i didn't even realize there was a fucking reference so that's where we
are as a as an entertainment show now so now one third of us got it what i what i'm saying the point
that i'm making is that this this young lady this young musical artist can double her profits she can
have two chart toppers instead it's just the one that that that is gonna get the itunes downloads
it's all about fucking diversifying here's the question does the song about music have the
same draw as the song about butts it does if you fucking attach them you know the good thing about
it is that you i i feel comfortable giving my baby daughter a song about music and the low parts of
music exactly um her hearing is fully formed i'm excited about that i can't let her hear a song
that's even obliquely about butts exactly she'll find out about butts in her own good time i'm not
exposing her to that so have you not let her listen to back to poo corner travis patch travis
