Starting point is 00:00:00 You think I don't appreciate a good deal when I see one? Camera 2, zoom. What's up, little mama? I'm drunk, honestly. You're actually crying. It's a good fish. I know, at the beginning. Oh, sure.
Starting point is 00:00:18 Here, I'll go. Welcome back to the Pinky Boys podcast. It was Joe Santagato's 50th birthday party. We got pretty drunk. We got a little swasty-wasty. Danny's coming in hot today. I'm coming in hot. How about you?
Starting point is 00:00:37 How do you feel? I think I'm still drunk. I'm in it. I'm 24. I'm a spry young man. I don't have hangovers anymore. Oh. I haven't had...
Starting point is 00:00:50 I mean, you know, this is a hangover, but, you know, if you're 75 like Joe Santagato is, then you're it's gonna it's gonna feel much worse in the morning yeah um i i'm not at the point yet where oh you know like a lot of people in there i don't know 35 plus like uh i i'll have a hangover for three days if i have these two glasses of wine yeah i don't get it i used to have a i used to hang out uh with my boss who's who's 35 at the time all right and he said he said that anything over three drinks is the same.
Starting point is 00:01:27 So he used that as an excuse to drink all the time. Because he said if I have three drinks the next morning is going to be hell so I might as well have 300. That's like how you go away to prison for 25 years
Starting point is 00:01:42 killing one person. Might as well blow up a bus. If I'm in a life sentence I'm going on a kill streak. You think I don't appreciate a good deal when I see one? That I'm not going to kill five people for the same jail time? What are you going to give me? Another life sentence?
Starting point is 00:01:59 Oh, yeah. Give me four more. Paint, paint, paint, paint. I also have another birthday party today. Oh, you're banging them out. Birthday, birthday, birthday. What sign are we in? What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:02:14 The fourth? What is the astrological sign of somebody in March 4th? How about you take it? March 4th? What the fuck? It's not March 4th. Time flies. It's fun.
Starting point is 00:02:25 No, it's February 29th? I don't know. Pisces? Let's see. Take a guess. Pisces? Is it Pisces? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:34 I don't want to pretend like... What is Aquarius? That sounds cool. I don't believe in astrology. You like aquariums? But I love aquariums. Me too. Name five Pixar movies.
Starting point is 00:02:45 Go. Up. Finding Nemo. Toy Story The Invincibles Finding Nemo is Disney No it's not It is
Starting point is 00:02:53 No it is not Yes it is Look it up Okay I'll bet you I'll bet you five shots Oh that's a heavy Right now
Starting point is 00:02:59 On the podcast I'll bet you five shots Okay And if you say Disney Pixar I'm gonna fight you Because it is Pixar Is Finding Nemo A Disney movie
Starting point is 00:03:11 Yeah It's on Disney Plus That is not This does not mean It's a Disney movie Oh It's a Pixar movie No it says
Starting point is 00:03:19 No, no. Is it a Pixar? It says Walt Disney Pictures. Is Finding Nemo a Pixar movie? It says Walt Disney. I'm going to fight you right now. Hey, look at this. No, but it was released by Walt Disney Pictures.
Starting point is 00:03:32 No, but that's because they bought Pixar. It is a Pixar movie. So who's daddy? Who's daddy? Disney or Pixar? I literally just said this. No, no, no, no. Because you realize you were wrong halfway through.
Starting point is 00:03:42 No, I did not. Finding Nemo is a Pixar movie. Why did Disney? Finding Nemo, 2009 American computer animated adventure film produced by Pixar Animation Studios. Production companies, Walt Disney Pictures, and then Pixar Animation is after that. It's a Pixar movie, bro.
Starting point is 00:03:58 It's a Disney movie. If anybody says Finding Nemo is a Disney movie... Is it on Pixar Plus? Is it on Pixar Plus? This is literally right before this. I said it, and Antonio has to take five shots right now. No, it's not fair that you get to... Right now.
Starting point is 00:04:11 It's not fair that you get to... Pay me my money. Pay me my money. Give me the shots. Give me the shots. But it's also not fair that you get to realize you're wrong right before you're about to finish your sentence and go, but if you say the correct thing, that's wrong. No, it's, everybody knows Disney bought Pixar, and then it was like, is it a Disney movie
Starting point is 00:04:29 or a Pixar movie? Everybody knows this, bro. I guess technically. It's obviously a Pixar movie, obviously. I guess technically, you owe me five shots, and I owe you five shots. No. I'm also right. You're not right.
Starting point is 00:04:40 I'm also right. Actually, you're not right at all. I mean, that's not true. You're literally not right at all. Unbelievably Disney movie. It is not a Disney movie. Anyway, the five ones were Up, Finding Nemo, Toy Story, Luca. No, that's Disney.
Starting point is 00:04:55 No, it's not. That's on Disney+. That doesn't mean it's a Disney movie. That doesn't mean it's a Disney movie. I mean, is Avengers a Disney movie? No. It is? It's not.
Starting point is 00:05:05 It is? No, it's not. It unbelievably is. It's just so dumb. It is a Disney movie. It's a dumb conversation. What was the fifth one? Quiet, because you can't handle an adult Disney conversation.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Fucking Inside Out. That's a Disney movie. No, it's not. A lot of things are on Disney+. It doesn't make them a Disney movie. All right, name one thing. What? On Disney+, it's not a Disney movie.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Finding Nemo. This is so obvious. Very. It's not a Disney movie. If it has the fucking little lamp that jumps on the eye, it's not a Disney movie. No, but also the Disney castle appears in the beginning also. No, it doesn't. I'm finding Nemo.
Starting point is 00:05:42 If we watch Disney+, I'm pretty sure it does. No, it doesn't. Little Tinkerbell goes right over the castle. Bro, you're so wrong. And everybody in the comments is going to say, hey, Antonio, you're a fucking loser. If you think that Finding Nemo is a Pixar... What about Toy Story? No, that's Pixar.
Starting point is 00:05:58 But when Toy Story 4, it was produced by Disney. That's a Disney movie, yeah. Oh, that's a Disney movie. That's a Disney movie. Of course. I think people in the comments are going to right now type, Antonio is technically correct. Antonio's wrong. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:06:09 You know what happened to me at the bar yesterday? First of all, I was getting picked on the whole night by a bunch of people. But the DJ did something that a DJ has never done to me before. What did he do? You know, what does DJ stand for? Digital joker. Digital jester. I'll tell you this much.
Starting point is 00:06:26 It's before DJ. The term DJ is before digital has anything to do with it. Okay. Directing. No. Deeply. No. I'll even give you the first word.
Starting point is 00:06:39 It's disc. Disc jockey. Yes. That's exactly what it is. Ride that disc, baby. Yeah, like a little horse. Also, disc jockey, I would think it's a... It's a disc jockey.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Like the... Anyway. Like a little horse? Either way, Joe wanted more hip-hop, and it was 3.30, and we were the only ones left in the bar, essentially. And this guy was playing music that didn't have words. It was just a bunch of sounds.
Starting point is 00:07:01 So I went up to him as politely as I think I possibly could. I asked this DJ. I said, hey, can you play more hip-hop, or are you going to play more hip-hop? And he said, with the biggest smile on his face, i will never play more hip-hop tonight and please get out of my face whoa yeah he said please get out of my face and i went oh oh okay okay that's really rude i was like okay and like but like with a smile while he was moving around i went i'm very confused on how to emote here you also
Starting point is 00:07:29 dancing no i mean no i i was more just i definitely looked so dumb because i was like excuse me you know i was like a little child that's gonna wait her for uh an extra spoon yeah no i mean and and And that's a very vague request. The thing about DJs is I would hate to be a DJ because you're playing music that the entire bar vibes to, and then someone says, can you play Firework by Katy Perry? And it's like, it doesn't fit into the ambiance
Starting point is 00:07:56 that I'm trying, the mood that I'm trying to create. But you gave him so much room. I mean, you can easily, especially with the music he was playing, he was playing like 70s disco, you could easily kind of incorporate hip-hop into that vibe and he did play hip-hop before before and we just wanted it back at least throwing it in there it's not like i went up to him it's like can you play starships by nikki minaj you know it's like i didn't do anything that bad is it
Starting point is 00:08:22 slaps sing the first line go let's go to the beach each let's go get away all right hey what they're gonna say have a drink clink chat about life damn that was a lot that was a lot more than what i said yeah so i mean you know i get i get it i get it i didn't request you know i don't know dmx and or ignition remix or something dmx i don't know what's wrong with ignition remix well you know r kelly you have to separate the art from the artist people aren't aren't too fond of r kelly they piss on little girls he makes great music but he makes good music i mean he makes he makes that one good song actually i and trapped in the closet is a masterpiece strapped in the closet Shrapped.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Well, he was strapped in the closet. But I think it's trapped in the closet. I said strapped. Strapped? Yeah. The replay. Either way. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I mean, I think, I don't know. If I was a DJ, I'd feel like, yeah, maybe. And sure. And just not play it. You know? Yeah. I feel like that's fine. That's what I would do.
Starting point is 00:09:19 My DJ name would be DJ No Requests. That is a perfect name. Hell yeah. Also, you know, you don't know who I am. What if I just took my can and chucked it at you? Do we want to ruin all this equipment? You're not catching me. I think he was asking for some fucking move.
Starting point is 00:09:36 No, if he said, oh, I mean, I could, and then he was waiting for me to respond, I'd be like, what is it going to take? He just starts winking. And then I start moving, and he's like, the glory hole. By the way, can you wink? Yeah, I can wink great. Did it. Did it twice. Other side.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Watch this. Hey, what's up? That was a bad one. All right, I need you to give me a, hey, what's up, babe? wink right at the camera hey what's up babe no you can do it come on i'm zooming i'm gonna zoom in right here ready camera two zoom what's up little mama if that didn't make people swoon i don't know what will you're so hot i'd fuck your dad honestly the line that was a great wink it's a great wink it might have sealed the deal
Starting point is 00:10:22 alone why have you had problems winking i know a lot of people can't wink no i can't wink i mean i feel like i mean not really like i can't like if you have to do if all of the face muscles in your face contract to wink like it's not a wink you know it's not smooth no it's not smooth at all i used to be able to lift both eyebrows but i can only really do the right i also i've never i've also never understood the biting of the lip you ever see a picture of a fuck boy like biting a lip like doesn't i feel like my i've looked in the i've literally taken pictures of myself biting my lip i'm like i'm gonna look hot and it's just like it looks like i'm like looks like you're eating it hey and then you wink i think am i biting too low should i just be like
Starting point is 00:11:08 i don't know why don't you take a class also why is the biting of a lip hot i don't know because it's like like a you know like a like it's like a i guess i i literally couldn't tell you the slightest idea what that means yeah me neither honestly but i'm as the the podcast progresses i'm i feel like i'm getting more and more of a headache oh really i thought you're gonna say you're getting more drunk that's why i'm continuing I mean, I'm getting a little bit drunker. The hair of the dog is a real thing. I love brunch.
Starting point is 00:11:45 I love hair of the dog. I think it's great. I love a Bloody Mary. I think I'm the biggest Bloody Mary fan in the Northeast. Oh. All right. I really do think so. I'll give it to you.
Starting point is 00:11:58 That's a lot of tomatoes. No, if you were, I feel like the bare minimum for someone who's the biggest Bloody Mary lover in the Northeast, you have to be growing tomatoes. That's the bare minimum. I think you need to be growing tomatoes. I mean, I know tomatoes are an integral part of Bloody Marys, but it's so much more than just tomatoes. Spices. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Bloody Mary mix. It's spices. It's worse this year. I don't think Hair of the Dog actually does work. Oh, it definitely works. No, I think it's like, you know when you have to take a shit and you kind of hold it in? And you know, for this probably 20 minutes, it's gone. But I know it's going to come back twice as hard.
Starting point is 00:12:37 i think that's what hair the dog does it's like you're gonna have a hangover but you're just pushing off pushing it off and now you're gonna have a really bad of course that's what it is but it does my health teacher and literally in high school my health teacher said was our principal the hangover was our principal as well our hangover cure does not exist coffee uh a pedialyte extra water you know bacon egg and cheese everybody has their own hangover cures you know why old wives tales but he said the only thing to stop a hangover is more alcohol and he said i was gonna and he said of course you're just delaying the inevitable but it is the only thing that stops a hangover and i agree with him and tech and it's true and by the way
Starting point is 00:13:22 when he said it he meant he meant the only way to stop a hangover is more alcohol and you'll eventually become an alcoholic essentially you're gonna pay you're gonna pay with your with the way you feel every time and drinking alcohol is not worth it but what we got from that is keep drinking the only way to stop hangover is i'm bloody married in the morning do you think anybody be able to tell that you're drunk like do you do you have drunk right now yeah yeah right now definitely i'm saying like do you have a a super super clear drunk tell do you know well especially with the fucking botched up haircut you gave me yesterday.
Starting point is 00:14:01 I do this a lot with my hair. Hair's fine. I do this a lot. I rub my hand through my hair and then that fucks it up. And that's your drunk tell? Yeah. The higher my hair is,
Starting point is 00:14:14 the drunker I am because I'm running my hand through my head a lot. Yeah, because there are some people, it's like if they're wearing a button down, every button that becomes open is their level of drunkness. I know that's a lot of people do that.
Starting point is 00:14:24 What is your drunk tell? I don't know. i think i just like i sit down more i just sit i don't want to move because i don't get to the i don't get to the oh i'm gonna piss myself or throw up my body just i'll tell you i'll tell you what shuts down yeah it does it does shut down antonio is one of those people where he can be two drinks in and 20 drinks in and it's very hard to tell the difference really it's pretty incredible honestly but the one thing that you do is that and how i know you're drunk is that you'll say you'll say something you'll you'll say this one phrase a lot and and you'll
Starting point is 00:15:05 just go you'll usually end the sentence with it so you know we're just talking you're saying oh the squirrel yeah you're saying this the the squirrel loves nuts that's that's what he does what he does that's his dude his drunk talent is he just goes every other sentence I'm just like a little garden gnome humming to himself it's like do you need another drink Antonio's like yeah I'll take a rum and cook
Starting point is 00:15:30 that's what he does it is your drunk tell that's what you do oh my god and sometimes it changes you know sometimes it's like fuck me oh fuck but that's what it is that's your drunk tell
Starting point is 00:15:46 oh that was an immediate cry This is one of those immediate cries where you push all the juice to the front of your body. You know tears are so weird, right? So you have a tear duct, if I'm correct. Okay, yeah, all the middle. First of all, what is a tear? What is it made of? Is it just water in your body?
Starting point is 00:16:10 Saline. Do your tear ducts, are they like a reservoir? Or do they fill? There's so many things about the human body I don't understand. I mean, there's a lot of people that said, I can't even cry anymore. I have no tears left. No tears left to cry. No tears left to cry.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Jeremy. Yeah. So maybe. Some people are more criers than others. I know somebody who, if he goes to a funeral, not a funeral of somebody he knows, anybody's funeral whatsoever. Crying. Crying. Like, literally bawling.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Bawling. Like he's, he's just, he's just, he's just sad at the prospect of death. What are those people called? Empaths? Yeah. Am I wrong? No, it is. It's empaths.
Starting point is 00:16:56 No, I mean, but like, isn't there like an extreme one where they could like, like something like that? Like, I don't think I could walk into a random funeral and just feel the sadness and the, what you feel that, but enough for me to just start crying. True. I mean, I don't do that either. I also know one, one, one, one of my mom's best friends, she would cry every time Amazing Grace came on.
Starting point is 00:17:14 that's just her song like that's just a song oh what what what one time my mom and her went on a cruise and and for some reason every day at the beginning of the cruise they played amazing grace and she'd cry every time dude about a whole vacation where you start your day with crying it can only go on from there i guess but crying isn't a bad thing no let's let's let's lay this out on the table right now oh here we go i i feel like as men we've been told not to cry i don't cry yeah fucking sometimes you need a good cry yeah just cry dad i mean antonio cries all the time i do cry and and and and and crying isn't always bad you know like probably i i i'm lucky enough that in my life the most i've cried has been from laughing which is which is i think
Starting point is 00:18:05 the benchmark of a very good life yeah you're very very blessed so blessed i'm so hashtag blessed hashtag blessed if you had a bucket of tears from every time you laughed every time you cried oh my my laugh bucket would be so much higher laugh cry swimming pools of laughter cry swimming pools laughter and if you're sad cry it out sometimes crying helps it's a human i don't know if it's an emotion it's not an emotion it's a human reaction definitely human reaction human reaction cry your cry your eyes out did you know i know this tear fact that happy tears sad tears grief tears and guilt tears all have different shapes like snowflakes is he lying to me i swear to god but in fact right now i swear i don't want to look like an idiot i swear to god isn't that
Starting point is 00:18:53 crazy we can cry are you serious i swear to god like i think that's incredible i think sad tears under a microscope are more square. It's very confusing. See, I would correlate the shape of sadness more hecticonal. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Hectogonal. How many sides of hecticon do you want to have? Come on. It's very sad. A hexagon is a sad shape. It's a very... Or maybe rhombus.
Starting point is 00:19:33 Very sad shape. I could see... By the way, I love that word. Rhomboideus. Rhomboideus. I don't know if that was a real word. So what? Happy, what?
Starting point is 00:19:40 More circle or a star? Yeah, I... Oh, my God. Yeah, happy should be a star. It should be a twinkle in your eye, you know? Yeah, yeah. What about guilt? Also, is every snowflake different?
Starting point is 00:19:50 Is that true? That's true. Is it? I think so. Have you ever seen, like, a fucking fat snowflake? like it landed in your and you can literally see it like with your eye you can see the shape of it it's pretty incredible i mean yeah kind of not sometimes they just look like huge feathers honestly coming down and sometimes they're super small and you know under a microscope they look
Starting point is 00:20:11 very different but but but like have you ever seen like like there was there was one time i felt like i was in a pixar slash disney movie there you go and they and snowflake landed right on my palm and it was like, it looked like the paper, you know? It looked like the things you cut out. It looked like a snowflake and I could see it. I was like, wow. And you cried. This is incredible.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Of course I cried. I cried in rhomboidious tears. Rhomboidious tears of peril. No, I cried. Star tears. Star tears. They're probably circle. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Oh my God, my nose. What do you think is the saddest color? Gray. Gray. I don't think black No, I don't think black either Also, not technically a color Here we go, sorry
Starting point is 00:21:00 It's definitely attributed most to sadness because funeral is all black Honestly, side note, I don't remember the last time I actually wore black to a funeral I always wear black to a funeral I go black on black on black Black shirt, black jacket, black tie I'm not saying that I'm
Starting point is 00:21:17 wearing my rainbow jacket and tie-dye boots That's not what I'm saying I'm saying, unless it's your relative, I don't remember the last time I was in black, black, black. And I've gone to a funeral recently. Not a lot of people. It's like jeans. It's a shirt. Sometimes I wear something that would try to emulate the person who I thought it was.
Starting point is 00:21:41 What the fuck does that mean? The person who I thought it was. I've tried to emulate something that they would like, let's say. Yeah, Danny's going to come in in a skin suit. Like when I went to my grandpa's funeral, I wore like a very like emerald green Irish because he's from Ireland, like an Irish tie and, you know, something that he would like, you know. But he's not seeing it.
Starting point is 00:22:03 That's besides the point. It's a funeral. It's a celebration of life. I swear to God, I'm putting this on. I'm putting this on video. I'm drunk, honestly. Really? I'm putting this on video right now.
Starting point is 00:22:19 When I die in two and a half months, please. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What the hell? All right. He goes, sorry. Please, please don't be sad. I mean, you can be sad.
Starting point is 00:22:34 I'm not going to tell you not to be sad. But can we not have the old drab funeral? Oh, you know. like can you please just like take all the money that it would take for a normal wake and go to six flags or laser tag for god's sakes celebrate life celebrate the life you know so you if when you die it's like that quote i love that quote don't be sad that it's over be happy that it happened or something like that yeah stupid i love that quote stupid quote you're such a it's just as dumb a quote as it's not about the destination it's about the journey
Starting point is 00:23:10 Dumb quote. It is about the journey. It's a dumb quote. It's such about the journey. Yes. Unless the destination is, you know, the coffin, fine. It's about the journey. That's what the...
Starting point is 00:23:18 Not really. It's about, like, you know, success and accomplishments and, you know, it's dumb. Whoever says it's about the journey, not the destination, never made it to the destination. That's just not true. I swear to God. That's not true. Swear to God. It's not true at all.
Starting point is 00:23:34 And the point is, celebrate my life. Don't be sad. Don't be sad. It's over. I mean, that's true. We should celebrate all your accomplishments. You know, be happy. That's what I would want you to do.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Are you going to start crying? I might start crying. Are you going to start crying right now? For God's sake, just celebrate life. Celebrate me. Celebrate life. Come on. It's fun.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Okay. You need to relax. It is fun. You know what? How about I'll get you a marble statue of you, and I'll put you right here. Fuck yeah. Fuck yeah. You like that?
Starting point is 00:24:09 Should I hit a little button that makes you fart? What if you should just stuff me? Oh, okay. Like I had to go to a taxidermist. Can you? Get me stuff. Can you taxiderm a corpse? It depends on the country, I think.
Starting point is 00:24:23 What country do we have to move to? I don't know. But, I mean... Thailand? First of all, taxidermy in general, unless you killed it, it's very weird. Like, if you taxidermy your dog, very weird.
Starting point is 00:24:37 That's very weird. What about being a taxidermist? You're probably grandfathered into it. But I'm not a pet guy, you know? That's true. Have you ever had a pet? I never owned a pet, but my family has. I'm not saying have you personally owned a pet.
Starting point is 00:24:53 I mean, that was word for word what you asked me. When you were a kid, did you have a pet? I mean, yeah. What was the pet? It was a dog. You had a dog? Yeah, a dog. A little Mikey.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Like a ninja. A little Mikey? Michael Angelo. What kind of ninja turtle? What kind of dog was it? A little Pomsky. A Pomsky? Yeah, a little tiny little Pomsky.
Starting point is 00:25:10 It's a very good dog. It's a very good dog. It's a very cute dog. No, it's a Pomsky? A Pomsky. Pomeranian Husky? No, no. It looked like Logan Paul's dog.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Sorry. That's just a Pomeranian. Pomeranian. It was a Pomeranian. It was a little Pomeranian. Really? Yeah. When was this?
Starting point is 00:25:23 Oh, this was wrong. Really young? Yeah. Like, was it just you and your sister? Oh, yeah. My brother's not even a concept. I don't even think they were loaded in the chamber. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:34 I'm telling you. Yeah, really, when you think about life like that, it really does make you think, you know, it's like there's a billion sperm. Okay. And you did it. You did it. And it's the only race I've ever won.
Starting point is 00:25:53 The only race I've ever won. And maybe you found a shortcut. I'm not going to tell these fuckers. And I didn't get a dog. I didn't get a fucking dog. I've had two betta fish, Swimmy and Joey. Joey died immediately. Not only did he die, he killed himself.
Starting point is 00:26:10 You must have been a great owner. Don't put this on me. I've had enough childhood trauma. Because I had, basically, so we went to my cousin's wedding, and the centerpiece was a betta fish. And underneath each coaster, there was a red circle, or you have a star. And the person with the star was able to take home the betta fish.
Starting point is 00:26:37 great wedding idea by the way and how you put the burden of this and so and so so i won i won one and my grandma and the other table one another and we both had them and and then they were they were in my grandma's kitchen little did we know they were in two different tanks i mean we obviously we knew betta fish can't be in the same tank they will fight they will they won't fight they'll kill each other okay it's not a karate tournament it's a battle to the death i'm sorry No, it is a gruesome battle to the death. Yeah. But little did we know, we had them in two glass jugs,
Starting point is 00:27:10 which was the centerpiece, and next to each other, and they could see each other. Okay, vision. And Joey jumped out, leaped out of the glass in an attempt to murder the other dumb fish's name. I don't know if he was... Swimmy? No, no, that wasn't Swimmy.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Oh, I'm sorry. That was my grandma's fish. who knows who knows his fate but jerome but he joey leaped out of tank in a suicide mission to try to kill him and landed on the floor and then little old me went to go fucking you know i don't know get some entenmann's cake or some bullshit and i and i and i and i we're we're not italian and and and and i went into the kitchen and and joey is just dead on the floor joey joey I was so sad. Oh, that was a rhombus cry.
Starting point is 00:28:03 That was a rhombus cry. Unbelievably. That must have been. That was a hexagonal tears. I cried so much. That's definitely traumatizing for a little. And then, like, I don't know, probably a year later, after I had gotten over the traumas, we got Swimmy.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Not the most creative name. But we had Swimmy. And Swimmy lasted for, like, six years. That's too long. Swimmy was my best friend. And many times, I thought he was dead. and I'd be tapping on the tank and he just wasn't moving
Starting point is 00:28:31 and then eventually he'd go. Maybe he's like, oh God, he's back. He's back. He keeps tapping. Yeah, so that's the story. And so I actually buried him in my front yard. Buried the fish. I took one of my mom's jewelry boxes and made it into a coffin.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Didn't take out any of the jewelry, so let's go find his. And I buried it in the ground. And that was the only two pets I've ever had. yeah we just we put mikey down oh and then cheery and then uh why would they have got coma or something yeah something i don't know cancer in the bones or some shit who knows bone cancer that's a rough one yeah not great and my dad had to do it actually put him down he just took a shovel what i'm kidding i'm kidding oh my god no i'm kidding i'm kidding no it's legal no it's
Starting point is 00:29:25 like it's a dog you know dogs all put it in his misery there you go i didn't bury it in the front yard i wouldn't i also wouldn't bury a fish why i don't know don't you flush fish what a what a what a terrible memorial we it's like a little thing you the flush you could see it spiral down I was a very, you know, as a kid, I was very extra. Like, I did a lot of, you know, I guess as an adult, too. But I didn't just... You definitely calmed down now. I didn't just bury swimming.
Starting point is 00:29:57 I had, as I mentioned, a celebration of life. I had a funeral service. It was me, my mom, and my dad. But we all took turns standing up, saying what he... He was with us in our lives for six years. Yeah. oh man it's an important fish oh man do you remember what you said yeah what'd you say i said swimming you were a great friend to me i'm gonna cry
