Welcome back to the basement. Welcome back to the basement yard. We're here. How you doing? Me and you. Shmitty merch. Yes. Very nice.

It's a good shirt. It's a quality shirt. And I'm not just saying that because he's my friend. It's like a good thick shirt. It does look thick. I do have to sneeze. And also, it's just us today. Nobody else here because apparently ants on the run.

Hmm. I got something going on with my eye. What's going on with your eye? What's going on with your head? I think after the face paint. I'm growing a little stye in my eye. Oh, really? I hate that.

Not how you sneeze. Not how anyone sneezes. Did that fuck your ears up? Now you got something fucking in your ear, huh? Tuesdays. Dude, what? Nothing. Do you have a stye, really?

It's very small, but I'm afraid it's going to pop up on camera. Dude, it is so minuscule and you're being just intense. I saw your face before. I didn't see a sky. Yeah, you're fine. Otherwise, I would have been like, the fuck is that. What's that? fucking thing on your eye.

What's the growth on your face? Fuck, you freak. You got a growth that you probably don't want to talk about. Look at it. I had a stye once for like two months and it was like... Two months. Dude, a long... Do you shove your head inside of a colon?

How'd you get that? That doesn't happen like that, brother. I don't know how sties are... It's a pimple under your eyelid. Got it. That's all it is. I didn't know. It was bad and to the point where like I was like in the mirror like fucking saw

with like a fucking needle ready to like try to get it. How do you, how do you treat it? How do you treat a stye? You're not supposed to pop it. You're not supposed to pop them, but they say that like, you know, like a hot compress. I've seen people say like put tea bags on it, honestly, for some reason, but... I'm not getting my face tea bag. Wow.

You know, you ask in the right circles. I'm sure people will drag their tea bags across your eyeballs, you know? But you definitely did that. Put a tea bag on it. Okay. Let's make it very clear, like an actual tea bag. Yes. Not, not balls up a man.

Not what people think of, like, dragging, like, nuts sacks. You were not that. Not doing nuts sacks on the eyes. Two months is crazy. Dude, it was bad. And I had started a new job at that time, so, like, they took, like, my, like, my ID badge picture. Oh, no. And I was like, and you were styed up.

I was fucking stied out, and it sucked. I don't know if I've had a stye. I feel like I have, but I don't remember. They're, like, they can be painful, but I think. It's just more, yeah, it's just more of an annoyance. You know what I get? That's very annoying. Tonsel stones.

Ooh, I hate those videos I've seen people like do videos where they like Pull them out with like Dude, I have to go with a toothpick In the back of my throat And I've got a bad gag reflex Oh yeah So I'm in the bathroom just going

You're making people happy with this part That I what? You have to like shove down your throat You're just like Yeah, okay But I'm taking a toothpick Are they like stones? I've used a knife before

Are they that's come on brother I swear to God I've used a knife But how would a toothpick get it out? Because it's like, it's mushy. Yeah, it's not a stone. It's not a stone, and it smells like shit, I heard it does. I don't think I've ever had one, but I heard they smell like shit. Well, my...

Because it's just like a collection of food that's just been rotting back there, right? Well, I actually don't know what it is because it doesn't like look like food. It's just like a squishy white thing. Hell. So I don't... I mean, it's got to be food. What the fuck else could it be? Can you look out what a tonsal stone is?

No. Like what it is. what it is like what is it yeah look up science yeah just type in science science on tons right i do hate those it's like there's like a pocket in my tonsil and like sometimes they get in there and then like you can feel it kind of rubbing on your tongue and you're like oh my god but you can't get it out unless you like pick it out that's suck but you should just get your tonsils removed that's like something that people do i was supposed to get my tonsils removed when i was younger because dude i don't know how this happened but when i was younger my if you watch my earlier

videos that are no longer on the internet. But if those videos, I sound so nasally. And it's because my throat felt like, like, it felt like that. I was talking like that. You're right. You did, but also there were other things that were happening with your voice. You were like, you were like, yo, like, don't be a fucking whole on the internet. That's my Joe Sanigato in 2013 impression.

Like, yo, if you're a slut, you can be a fucker's a lot. Yo, if you're like fucking Walmart, put pants on. Also, girls, give hand jobs. I wasn't much better. Let's be honest. If anything, I was worse. I'm just glad at the time. There was lots footage.

I was way more like Queens than I am now. You were definitely, and it comes out every now and then. No, it does. It does. There's that clip of when you said like, you were like, oh, so like. Yeah, it came out of me out. It came right back out. Yeah, I don't know, man.

The queens. Well, that wasn't necessarily. the queens in you that was also the like you know going to school in like corona of you probably yeah I mean that was so funny so wait so like your nasal I know like the I was it sounded like my throat but I used to get really bad uh sore throats oh and um you know when that's happening and you could see like my tons was so big but now that that that stopped happening to me do you ever Have you ever had to get him, like, milked? It's a great question.

That's a great question. I think it's a really good question. Yeah, I think it's a great question. Like, when do tonsils get milk? Suppressed. Wait, what? Are you? I am dealing with two different types of stupidity here.

One out of time. Hey. Do you think that people go to the doctors and they milk your tonsils? I mean, they go in and I'm sure they squeeze stuff out of it. Like, they get rid of tonsil stones if they're too big for being stones in your mouth. if they like get too large they just take them out they don't milk them and how do they take them out they cut them out

I think they're milking people's tonsils I mean I imagine they go in and they have to like get stuff out of them and that includes I've seen videos on fucking on the internet of like people like going in with like that like that thing that has like a wire that's like a circle on the end of it and they go in and they press it and then stones just pop out

and they're fucking hideous and they're stupid fucking weird ass Fix your throat No, you don't get milked at the doctor, dude You don't get milked You just get them taken out Well, because Okay

So I didn't I don't do that But I have There are parts of the body That need milking Yep Need is crazy No, but like

I know I know people that have had Like from like Breastfeeding They've had blocked ducks And they need to like Work it out And like then

You know Of course or like it reminds me That's the only one Let's get that out Nothing else needs to be milked I'm 20% sure That you could milk the prostate

Yeah but it doesn't need to be milk I mean sometimes it does I think I mean you need to milk your dogs On your birthday it does You need a milk dog's anal glands That's true They call that expressing them Expressing that not suppressing

Expressing so like I'm sure there are other parts of the body That must be expressed I sound like a fucking priest express be with you express the milk from your titty and also with you did we want to know what tonsils yeah what is it it's a bacteria dead cells calcium and phosphate and food debris all in one so it's a combo food calcium detritus is that one of those what was the other d in there no one said detritus what was the d word i dead cells i there it is that i don't know what you heard detritus i mean i just

That sounds like a cool Greek god, I will say that Detritus is a thing Is it? Yeah, it's a thing I don't remember exactly I don't remember exactly what detritus is It does sound like a really, really cool Like a Greek, a Greek bully

Or a Greek god who's like in cool with like You know, like he's on the river sticks And he goes to Hades And he's like, it's me, it's detritus And he talks like that Are you okay? Is something going on? It's a waste or debris of any kind.

Detritus. That's pretty good. Technically, it is detritus. What you said was wrong. Let's get that out of the way. Just now, I mean. Technically. It is detritus.

That was right. Yeah, technically a tonsils. The ghost that you created. Oh, the Greek character. Yes. I mean, but if they're going to name it after something, waste and like bad stuff, would they not name it after the person that kind of brings people on the ship on the river sticks to the underworld

and it's like they're named after him because he's transporting dead stuff waste we don't need to do all that but we're going to see Haiti I am detritus but they'd be Greek so they'd be like egg in there egg in there that's it's all I got all right well that was beautiful never had tonsil stones

yeah never had kidney stones knock on fucking wood I hear those are bad dude i uh sometimes though when i have tonsil stones if i this happened to me the other day i was talking and it just flew out of my mouth ew that's a little gross fuck it i don't like that like fuck that oh oh yeah yeah um i saw a video once of someone cutting open a bladder to get rid of kidney stones and it i'm not even kidding looked like just a hand holding rocks think about gallstones wait no black a fucking uh the ones that that you piss out. Isn't that in the kidney?

Wherever they cut it out of. I don't remember. The kidney stone? Maybe. I don't remember where they cut it out, but look up a picture and doesn't he doesn't need to put this up. I want Joey to see this. I'm not a squeamish. I'm not a squeamish guy kind of guy either, but Josh, don't put this in. I feel like you're trying to squeam me though. I'm not, I don't want to squeam you at all, babe. What's your order, sir? I'm pre-s squeam. Oh, look up giant kidney stones in in the body. Come on.

Oh, boy. I don't know if it's going to... Oh, boy. I don't know if this is what you wanted. Oh, dude, this sucks. No. Oh, and they look evil. What is that?

Oh, those are the rocks. Oh, my God. This looks like a brain. Look how big they could get. No, no. I mean, I've seen bigger than that, dude. Half an inch? Dude, I've seen bigger.

And I don't think that's an inch, brother. I think that's a centimeter. Yeah, it might be. Because there's 10 ticks. A one inch stone is not making it through your pisshole, brother. Yeah, you're going to have to get that blasted. Not an inch. How do they blast them?

Do they just, like, punch you in the kidney for, like, an hour? You know that's not what they do. I'm asking. I think that it's like a... Like sound? Yeah, like, I don't know. It's like a whale. Yeah, like they'd have a whale scream in your back.

Ah! They do sonar and fucking blow it up. That'd be pretty cool. Honestly, that would be awesome. I would, like, go out of my head to get one so they could have a whale scream at me. You think that's loud as hell? I'd imagine if they can hear it from, like, miles away. Right.

But, like, sound travels differently through water. I don't even know if that's true. Oh, no, I think the laws of nature allow that to be true. But, like, does sound travel further in water? probably not oh that's a great question that we're not going to look up no no because think about this if we're both in a pool and we scream well yeah but we are humans we are not whales they are they are well that's not evolutionarily basically conditioned in order to do that i'm saying when but that's more about hearing i'm saying sound waves they travel less in water they must

Sound waves travel faster in water up to 4.3 times faster. Oh. But further? I mean, I think further, further all depends on... Oh, watch it there, buddy. Further.

I think it all depends on the strength of the sound. So, like, we probably can't scream, even at our highest. We can't scream like whales. Anything like a whale. Yeah, I can try, though. It does also travel further. No way.

Because of the density, man. That's pretty cool That's cool Did you know Penises look bigger Underwater Okay Say what

One more time Penises look bigger underwater What do you What website are you on I learned that from Snucky Um I mean listen All due respect to

Snucky I don't know If that is where I would Ask for her expertise She is a woman I mean She also spent a lot of time At the Jersey Shore

But you can't see in the ocean They spent a lot of times In hot tubs too So maybe it's different in a hot tub I can imagine that the hot tubs they were spending time in had murky water because it was mostly vodka and Tanner

I like watched that show for the first time last year which is bananas for yes sure what an insane like capturing a time and like pocket of human existence

yeah like it is so bro do me a favor the world stopped when that came out bro watch that show and first of all because we were 17 18 19 when that show was at its peak in popularity so we were the ones that were going out to clubs and shit like that i wasn't a big clubber and i don't think you were either but we went out to clubs yeah and like not only did we like at least i can speak for myself here

did i know people that were basically just miniature versions of polly viny and mike yeah everybody But, like, there's just like a, like, it's hard to explain, like, that's such a moment in time. And it's just like, holy fuck, yeah. It's just crazy. Yeah. It's just a crazy thing where it's just like, that was us. You've lost me now.

Why? What are you talking about? Actually, I don't want to know. You don't care? I feel like you're going down one of those holes where it's like there might not be a point. I'll be honest with you. I feel like what I just said was offensive Every of what I say

Ever has a point at the start I find points That's why I'm trying to say Because I'm like If we explain this even further We might not get to a point Yeah it's like it's like You know

I'm like a I'm like a rose bush Okay We're back down another one Go ahead I'm a beautiful Like you see it And you're like wow

And then the stocks grow And then just points pop up They don't ever plan on where the points Are going to be The thorns you mean The thorns Yeah They eventually just pop up

And you're like wow That's a real good one. That's a good point of a good thorn? Yeah. Okay, perfect. Speaking of good points, well, that's not a good segue. Frank's holding out on us. He was like, oh, we have a, what is it, the dictionary word of the year or something?

Yes, so dictionary.com, which is a thing, which is why, like, what, let me start on dictionary.com. I can go on for hours about them. Can you? No. they announced their word of the year. So just to give you some examples, we've had some previous word of the year.

Like selfie and selfie Riz, I think, was on there. It's usually shit like that. Hold on, I'm pulling up to Dictionary.com. So like, oh, 2024 dictionary.com word of the year was demure. Very demure, very mindful. Yeah. 2023 was hallucinate. What happened?

What? What happened there? Was that not in the... Oh, it's not... I thought it was like a new word. No, no, no. Like, it's just picking like the word of the year. Hallucinate.

Word of the year means like they pick a word that's... They feel is like the word of the year. I thought they were introducing. How the fuck is hallucinate? I don't know. For 2023. What happened last year? That was two years ago.

You were hallucinating. Uh, 2022, woman. Should be the word of the year every year. Why was it woman? I don't know Okay I mean I really don't know

I don't remember 2021 ally ship I see a link Sure I see a link on how we got from one to the other 2020 pandemic

Well a little on the nose Too much 2019 Existential This goes back to 2010 Do you want Like want me to keep going You just say eggs

Existential And then Oh yeah let's just go back I want to hear him 2018 Misinformation Okay That's a good one

That's a good way 20 listen if you're in america you remember 2016 to 2020 yeah you probably remember 2020 very well too these words tend to follow a trend here 2017 2017 was complicit okay 2016 was xenophobia yo that being the word in an election year is hilarious which it is crazy uh 2015 was identity and all that? Sexual identity, maybe. Yeah, that was kind of like the awakening.

No, I mean like the pronouns and all that stuff. Like, I feel like that was later. I feel like that was like 2017. Like people started putting them in emails and stuff. Dude, 2015 was 10 years.

I know. It fucks me up. 2014, exposure. Sounds about right. That's the peak of like YouTube. Oh, okay. 2013, privacy. Funny that.

Privacy and then exposure. Oh, 2017 complicit. I think that was. was the year of like the rise of the me too movement got it yeah so that makes sense uh 2012 bluster what does that even mean i don't know i'll i'll be honest i also don't know what 2011 means tervig turgiver saite tergiver say tergiver say tergiver say t-e r giv-e r satee i also don't know what bluster means can we get a ruling on those and then 2010 was change

Was that Obama or something? Oh, no, that was Hope. Hope was, but that was, he was president at that point in time. Okay. But 2025, any idea, after you've heard some for previous years, other publications do like their word of the year. I'm sure we'll get one from like Merriam-Webster or Oxford because that's what they need to do now in order to be relevant.

But any idea, possible, possibility on what the 2025 word of the year is. I'm going to say What is it? Is it political? No. Oh, damn it. That's where immediately where my mind went. I'll say, I don't even remember what happened this year, to be honest.

Fuck. Is it cool? I don't know how to answer. Is it cool? I mean, that's subjective. Everything is cool to somebody. Well, I only have all of the words in the day. dictionary to pick from right now.

Like every I mean, do you think it properly represents the year? A part of the year. I don't know if it represents the whole year, but definitely a part of it.

Vaccine. I don't even know. I mean, I would have been 21. Fuck. Oh, great. Now, now the show, now the episodes

be monetized. Great. Did you ever look up to her givisate? I was honestly trying to remember the word you said without bluster. No, no, so I got tergiver state. It's making conflicting or evasive statements equivocate.

We don't need that. I don't even need that shit. We don't even need that shit. I don't even need that. That's a crazy word. Like, we don't need that shit. Absolutely not. And Bluster?

Bluster. I mean, it just sounds like a really cool kid living down the block that has like a lazy eye. Bluster is. It does that. Oh, that's good old bluster. Hey, guys, want to come over? I have hot pockets. Talking a loud, aggressive, or indignant way with a little effect.

With a little effect. Okay, cool. Yeah. All right, so this word for this year is going to be... I have no idea, dude. What do you think? Give us some... What do you think might be the dictionary.com word of the year.

I thought this was, like, inducting a word, so now I don't even know. Yeah, I thought so, too. I mean, they do... That does happen. it's not I mean I don't know I imagine that if dictionary com is like that's the word of the year

they're going to induct it but I don't know how this would get inducted into the dictionary like where they would put this in the dictionary would like Brat Well I would know where they would put that

I mean but Brat was last year Brat was like Brat summer was like 24 I don't see I just I mean if you live like me you're always Brat Well okay What's something like Sabrina Carpentry Juno.

I mean, no. I don't know. I don't even. All right, what is it? The dictionary.com, word of the year. No, it's not. 6.7. No, it's not.

Yes, it is. Yes, it absolutely is. That's not a word. That's why I said, I don't even know where they would put this. It's 6.7. 6.7, the mean that has captured the internet's attention on late 2025 has been named the word of the year by dictionary.com. Over the years, plenty of internet slang terms have started being used in everyday life.

A number of these have been born out of TikTok and Twitch including Riz, Skivety, brain rot, and ratioed. We're dying. 6-7, bro. Even though they're used

in everyday life, not all these terms are going to make it into the dictionary. A few have been, though, recognized for their cultural impact and how quickly they've become

widespread. 6-7, which was born from rapper Scrilla and his song... What? I just love the way you're like... It's like I'm listening.

Listening to the news, report it, you know. And his song Dut-Doot, which... Whoa! It's crazy that he stole that from us. There's another double date that's been a better thing. Has become the latest of those being awarded Word of the Year. Wow. Those are numbers.

Most other two-digit numbers had no meaningful trend over the period, implying that there is something special about 6-7. Shows the speed at which a new word can rocket around the world as a rising generation enters the global conversation. I hate when, like, they take something fun and do that. Yeah. No two other two numbers was significantly... I could think it too. No other two numbers?

I could think it too. 9-11? Oh, those are... Not what I meant. I thought that's where you were going. What numbers did you think? 69? I mean, 69's been around since the fucking...

69, 9-11, what else? 420. 420? 420. Yeah. But this raised the question. What does 6-7 actually mean? Oh, God, we can't go down this road.

There is no meaning. We as the basement yard, Joey, not only are we, we have a responsibility as the sexiest podcast on the planet to, in the year of our Lord 2025, figure out for our fans, for the people at large, what 6-7 exactly means.

There is no meaning. I mean, there has to be. No. So it's just, it's just, it's just, yeah. Nothing, there has to be, it has to stem from something. What did Scrilla say? The hardest thing to explain about 6-7 to my parents was how it means nothing. It's like an impossible thing to explain.

So like, is it like the idea of like if someone asks you like, oh, like, how do you feel right now on a scale of 1 to 10? You're like, ah, like 6, 7. Yeah, like you could do it like that. I know I could do it like that because those are numbers in a numerical sense. that's like that's yeah so is is the meaning of six seven that it's just like like i don't know like it's become a meme within a meme to my understanding okay that doesn't mean anything it realized that that's what i'm saying though where it's like it started as a meme like i from what i know there was like this kid and like he did it at a game like a basketball game and he like

did this thing with his hands and said six seven and then everyone was like making fun of this kid and then it just became like a mean so they would ask like other kids like you know or they'd be interviewing uh athletes like yeah at half i had like six seven point like it just became like a meme okay but but and now it's just kind of meaningless but if we go back to the earliest existence of memes which a lot of them stemmed from rage comics um what you don't remember those comic comics where like where so many of those like you know like faces came from the like you know stuff like that they were like oh yeah early 2010s um which the earliest onset of memes talk like a human there's something hysterical about like someone eventually is going to do like

teach a sociology class in like 2058 100% and just be like so here is where we saw the earliest onset of the memes yeah like oh miss you know miss labeled memes didn't Keith use that didn't he call him me me he called it like me me he's like yeah I saw this me me me I was like let me stop you there but like all of the memes they mean something but they are just like like masking it is like it means this but it also means like it's just another way of saying it like when you see the meme of like give me a popular meme i mean yo dude i'll be honest with you a lot a lot of the memes that i like are like so meaningless i went down this rabbit hole one time and because you know once you like like a video it's like it's just sent to you

all the time but it was just the sound of pipes bro it was just the sound of pipes like things hitting pipes just pipes but like pipes have they have to they have to they like makes you sound like if you threw a pipe. So something hitting a pipe. Yeah, or yeah, just like throwing a pipe. But it was like a bunch of pipes crashing into each other, basically. And it would just be like a regular video. And then all of a sudden you would hear that and then slowly like fade into a picture of one pipe.

And it killed me. Exactly. But that's, but that literally was like, it just made me laugh at heart. But I think if you think of like memes, like you think of like the like the baby that's like, you know, you know what baby. I'm talking about. Yeah. Or you think of like sad Brian. You remember that one where it was like...

These are like throwbacks. Okay. But I'm using more than 10 years. Yeah. This is insane. All right. But I'm using those as an example. Or like the guy that's like typing at the computer like, you know what I'm talking about?

Oh, like this is fine. Yeah. Or like no, no, no. Like the old man with the like full beard and he's like, you know. Or the one of Scarlett Johansson from that movie marriage story where she's like, where it's like how your email is finding me. Have you been on a computer? in like 10 years or

I'm saying memes they gave a feeling to something that otherwise doesn't have a definition like there is a meaning it's just it's something

that we have not been able to put a word to but there's people put an image to it but there's comedy in zero meaning in the same way that like the pipes thing like would make me laugh

I would send it to Pete all the time but just be pipes or they like the Italian brain rot craze I never, I don't think is a meme. That I don't think what you're explaining is not a mean. It's just a stupid thing that someone does.

Like, a meme, if we could actually, seriously look up the definition of a meme, I feel like it is. We shouldn't. We should. I should. We should not. I feel like it's like. What's going to, like, what do you? Because I'm trying to explain that this is not a meme.

It's just a thing that someone says. Like, if we're thinking about a meme, a meme, a meme is representative of a feeling, a thought, and emotion. Why are you trying to like put parameters on memes? Yes, I am. because I am of someone of high status. It is a... It's just like an internet inside joke, kind of. That's pretty much it.

An element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another. I don't even know what that means. I think I'm wrong. I think it's just like an inside joke. I don't know. Dude, the pipes, though. That's such a stupid...

It's so dumb. I literally, I'm just going to type one thing into Instagram, I just try to see. I guess memes existed before the internet. Like, do you remember? remember when you and I would just be like, I don't know if this is such a deep cut. I don't even know if you're going to remember this, but we'd be like, yeah, right, I'm going to go to this store.

Yeah, yeah. But listen, listen, this is the pipes. So that's the pipe sound, right? So there'd be a regular video playing, just a regular, regular, regular video. And then you'd hear that. And then just a picture of like, not even the background cropped out, just that. Look at this picture It's just that

Like it's just the stupidest thing Exactly Exactly That's why it's funny to me Because like what the fuck thought of it But also like come on You know like It'd be like a scene from Spider-Man

Not even a funny scene Just talking All of a sudden you'd hear the pipes And then the pipe would slowly fade in And I'm like who keeps making these And it just it would kill me It had me in a chokehold for like a summer That's so stupid

That's so stupid. Crashing pipes. That's like, remember when we would just be like, all right, like, well, someone would talk to us, and we'd be like, all right, cool, yeah. Yeah, you know, just like, shit like that. It's just, I get the idea of like something is so stupid, but I guess I always, I viewed memes as something else. Like, it's not, to me, memes meant something more, okay?

When I was a kid, memes meant something. They stood for something. They stood for an emotion, something that you couldn't put words to. So what came to the rescue? a picture of a kid in a backwards brown hat and a big puffer jacket and he looked like a big douche bag. It's crazy.

He's talking about the original, like, very long ago memes. But there's some good old school memes. Should we look at them? Should we look at old school memes? No, we shouldn't. But we should, no, we should do. We should get to these ads

okay we should answer done we should I think we should come up with a bigger meme than six seven

please stop I think if we can capture lightning in a bottle here on the basement you're thinking about it too much we can become hot dogs we can have a bigger meme than 6-7.

I think hot dogs were bigger than 6-7. No, they weren't. I actually did have a hot dog the other day. Oh, I had a couple. I went to the World Series game, Game 6. Jay's lost, but. Trader it is. Also, was able to go shout out to Seatkeek.

Last year they sent us to the World Series. Yeah, Seek. Always with a hook up. What the hook up? Hook me up, Seatkeek. We went to the Yankees last year and they hooked it up. So this year I went and in Toronto to go to a game. Just want to say, just want to say,

the game we went to last year was the only one the Yankees won? It might be us. It is us. Yeah. You know? They did lose when I went to see the Jays, but is what it is.

But yeah, no, fucking awesome experience being able to do that. They, like, hooked it up in the last second, too, um, for me to go there. I took a plane. I was there for like 18 hours. So you had a dog in you?

So I had a dog in me. I was at the game. I was like, you know, lot. I'm here. They're giving me this cool experience. I'm going to experience it the way you should. With a dog. Dog down your throat. I'm going, okay. You're going crazy with the down the throat thing. I hate it like a normal person. Okay. I mean, it did. There technically was a dog down your throat. It was chewed up. I don't care how the dog got there.

Fine. But yeah, I did get a hot dog. But I also, I ordered a, because we were having beers. Ooh. All right. So I was like, yeah. We're having some beers at the baseball game and whatever. And then I was like, I'm going to switch it up. You know, I'm going to get something nasty. Something filthy. Yeah, or I don't know, something cool.

I don't know. What do you get? So I see this thing. No, it was a Halloween. Do you know, I forgot about that story. A year, a year ago. There was something on the menu. It was called like a manganata or something like that.

Like, Aunt just perked up. But I was like, I was like, oh, what is this? What is this drink? Like, is it like a, because there was, like, rum in it or something and some other shit. So is this like a margarita? And the guy's like, yeah, kind of. It's like a, like a frozen margarita, something like that. I was like, okay, cool.

I'll do one of those. Bro, this thing shows up. It fucking. Bro. It's. This big. Yeah. It's like red and yellow overflowing in the cup, giant straw and a lion.

right ordered it from a dude a girl who works there was comes over to us and goes like this manganada oh like you were orders this

you were such a fucking pussy to her in that moment bro she literally was like manganada and I was like that's me and we were dying dude also sweetest thing I've ever had in my life had two sips and I was like

I don't know if I can have the rest of it Like, I imagine it was like a mango strawberry type It was, yeah, like now Or was the red just like grenadine? No, because you know what like mangoes also have that red in it? It was kind of like that. Let me be very clear about something. I have never had a mango outside of the skin on the outside

That has any amount of red in it. Like near the center. It's like kind of red a little bit by the pit. My brother in arms. Wait, am I thinking of a different thing? You have not had a mango. You're thinking a peach. Okay, yeah, I am.

I don't think of a peach But it looked like that Like you know It looked like peach colors The lime is confusing I mean no I mean it's just You know I'm sure there was tequila in there

Tequila lime is a pairing At time As old as time Yeah spaghetti meatball Spaghetti meatball macaroni cheese Lime and tuna fish Does Toronto have a Toronto dog Like do they like put

Poutine on it or something No but they were selling Poutine and I saw a bunch of people Get me Oh fuck you by the way I didn't get Whoa That's crazy that

Putin I heard it's Putin. Oh, shit, too. If I say it another, will he appear? Do you say Putin three times? He pops up. I know. I heard, I heard, I think Mikey was the one that told me that he was just like, it's not Putin. It's Putin. It's Putin. Really? We'd have to ask him, I'm pretty sure because I, I mean, if you completely grab that at thin air, that'd be interesting. If I'm going to be honest with you, if I am misremembering that, I'm concerned about my mental well-being. Same. Because I can remember having a conversation with him and him telling me that.

And if this is a creation of my delusion, we have a serious problem. We have a problem in our hands. But I will say that the game was like an awesome experience, especially in Toronto. They give so, they give a fuck, dude. Everyone on the street was wearing a jersey. Like, it was just like a cool. It must be cool. And I don't know if you like have thought about this.

But like, it must be cool to live in a city where there is one MLB team. One NFL team, one NHL team, one NBA team. Yeah, like, I mean, because like here, there's two for everything. It's Yankees, Mets, and then it's Nets, Knicks. And then, you know, like the only sport, major, I don't know if it's yet considered a major sport by most people. But like, the only, like, sport that has one team is the Liberty, the WMBA. Everyone else has two or three. And so New York is also one of those cities that a lot of people move.

to so you don't get like the entire i mean other than honestly i feel like nix fans are like everyone the nix fan like i don't think there's a lot of net fans in new york i think there's more net fans than you realize there's i mean i think if percentage wise like way more of new yorkers are nicks fans than they are sure well they've also like the nets were in jersey yeah well that's why it kind of feels like that like everything else feels sort of like split but that one feels like whatever but the but yeah like being in a city like that where everyone like cares about this so much everyone's fucking you know yeah that's got to be pretty cool like i don't remember where if like i can't really remember like us being on tour and like any of the like cities like had

their team and they were like ride or die for that team well when we were in awesome we went to that to the university of texas i'm not talking college because who fucking like dude they give a fuck dude you want to hear something funny i think they care more about the college team when we were in austin i got becca a longhorn's hat yeah because last year anytime we went somewhere i got her a hat from that place you know and we were out yesterday at a child's birthday party and her and i like the kids were like playing and we were sitting near the window and someone walks up to the window and i think they're going to point to me you know you know you know it's because I'm the sexiest podcaster

right exactly and looks at Becca well first he walked by and then doubled back knocks on the window and goes horns down horns down to her and she was like because she didn't know what the fuck

and I was just like you don't realize what you just did and she's like I don't get it and I was like they did horns down I was like people get like shot and in fights for shit like that Damn, threw all horns down on a woman. Didn't, like, didn't Vince Young get into a fight because someone did horns down to him or something like that? I mean, I imagine. They love Vince Young, too.

Well, he's like a big, like in the Austin area. He's big over there. Bro, he gave him a nattie. They fucking, he's God. Well, have they won since? Texas? I don't know. All I know is that game was like, fucking unbelievable.

I mean, I remember that game. It was them USC, and it was Vince. Young versus Reggie Bush. Crazy. 2006, I want to say. But, yeah, dude, he doubled back. That's so funny. To tell my poor wife, 2005, okay.

Horns down. To tell my poor wife, who knows nothing about? And, like, I'm not saying, like, I know much. Yeah. But, like, I knew that what he was doing was like, fuck you. Fuck you, basically. It was just, like, a crazy interaction.

That's how much they care, dude. It was awesome. But have you been to stadiums that, like, like, you remember, like, their signature food or drink was like bananas I don't indulge at games like that I usually just go for like the chicken tenders and fries I did get a hot dog

because I was like yo I'm in this bitch and it's the World Series got a dog it you know what I mean got a manganada in there I don't know if I would go back for the manganada I will say last time we went to a baseball game together not the last time we went together but there was a game we went to I think last year or the year before and you in your seat

ordered a spicy marg at a Yankee game and I was like this just feels wrong I mean it just felt weird like that's like Joe shake ass for a spicy marg I would no one is hornier for a spicy mark than this dude over here I love it that's why I ordered that

I thought it was a spicy mark but it wasn't it was a big tropical drink and you know the girl was rightfully confused and you know it was a it was a good experience and a good memory and I won't forget it And thank you again to Siki Because that was really fucking cool That you were able to get me tickets

To the World Series again That is Yeah Now you gotta go next year When it's no one versus no one Because of the lockout That's an inside baseball reference Literally inside baseball reference

Like it could not be more actual inside Inside of the baseball Yeah So well good for you I'm glad you had a good time Yeah I was getting my wife was getting yelled at For wearing a long horn's hat

Dude that is so funny horns downing Literally, he was just like, yeah. Good God. Yeah, no, that's not. It was like violent. It was violent. But we do have some more sponsors. Let's just jump into these

Hey And question He's got a question Let's see it now Bitch That is a new updated That's a new update We need to write like a full version of it

So it could be like There needs a ballad version of it Just like And question Got a question That he's gonna You're ruining it And question

You're still going You hit it on the back end A little bit there I know well like See this is the thing If you leave me alone I have to reel you in You'll run around the yard for an hour

I will We won't even be able to talk on this podcast You'll track mud into the house I've been described by my wife As a chocolate lab That just runs on hardwood And I think that they just You run not going on and I just

I think that's accurate That's a great Damn it I got you So here's the question Would you rather fight 100 Bloodlusted 95 year olds Or 100 bloodlusted

three-year-olds. Let's get this out of the way first. Bloodlusted, meaning zombie? They want to suck our blood? Or they're just, they just want to kill? They want to fucking suck our fucking blood so much, like through a straw or something?

They want to kill. They want to kill. Oh, so the bloodlust is just in like a sense of like they need to murder. Yes. Nice. They'll do anything to get you. I mean, which one would I rather fight?

That's the question. I'm going to say three-year-olds. Bro, I'm like an unlimited amount of three-year-olds. How much space do I have? Do I have the earth? Because they're definitely not getting me. It's like an empty field. Empty field.

I'm crushing them. And what do I have at my disposal? Is it anything I can find? Like, if I dig up a rock. If you can dig up a rock, sure. But from base, it's a fist to cuffs. This is what's tough. I didn't even consider weapons.

Here's what's tough. A hundred-year-olds seems like it'd be the easier one. Because, like, I can tire out a hundred-year-old. so fucking quickly or 95 year old is that what you said 95 I don't know if those five years

tomato at that point I mean they're already tired yeah I have to sneeze okay which one did you pick I realize you're trying to sneeze I'm trying to sneeze

all right sorry see I can tire out a 95 year old a hundred ninety five year olds by just jogging in a circle for five seconds you know how difficult it is a tire

out a five-year-old or seven-year-old? I'm not worried about tiring out the three-year-old. A three-year-old. Dude, you should be worried about that. Really? I bet a swift kick to the head would. They're bloodlusted. I'm not saying I would do that, but I'm saying... They are bloodlusted. I think I'm going to go with the three-year-olds because the 95-year-olds have lived enough of life to have a sense of, like, strategy. Like, they might be able to say, like, yo, if we band together and work a certain way, we can get this done. The three-year-olds,

It's anarchy. Yeah, yeah. They don't know what the hell they're doing. They don't even know that they're a part of a community. They may just, like, be stopping and talking to each other at one point. And they might be picking dandelions and stuff, like, unless they're given, like, a rage virus of some sort. Yeah, bloodlusted. Oh, yeah, they are bloodlusted.

Don't forget about the bloodlust. I will say, I think just from a pure weight standpoint, like a 95-year-old is going to weigh more than a three-year-old. So, like, eventually the 95-year-olds, all they have to do is, like, fall on top of me. And, like, eventually, it's a rap. But also, the three-year-olds, like, you're going to, like, listen, I can outrun a three-year-old. Yeah. I do it every other day, if not every day. But you have to move quicker.

Like, I can just briskly walk in the same direction for 10 minutes, and I will out. Like, I will get half these 95-year-old. And listen, I'm not saying they're, like, freak, like, still in great shape, like, Rita Moreno. Although, I don't know if she's 95 yet. And Dick Van Dyke. But, like, if I just walk and tire them out, like, I don't care how bloodlusted they are. They're going to be, like, crawling, and then I'm just going to stomp them out with my giant feet. Well, I have a question.

Imagine, like, these two scenarios in terms of zombies. Like, would you, like, a charging three-year-old zombie, I feel like is scarier than a charging 95-year-old zombie. You're bugging. No? Like an old zombie? I'm kind of with you on that. That's not as, like, I feel like they could be the same. They could be bigger than me.

I know, but like a little one coming at you. Oh, from a fear standpoint. I feel like it's scary. I feel like they're harder to. Also, I have like played like played with my like two children. All three of them are basically three years old at one point. So like I have experience playing with three three year olds. Yeah.

They can hurt you. Like it's not just like because they're so small like I've been kicked in the fucking balls. That's because you're you're like playing nice though. Like if you, like, if it was like, yo, me or you, it's a rap. You know, but also like, yo, you would be surprised how quick kids are. Three-year-olds are dense. Yeah, yeah. You know, like, I, I, my nephew at three years old, you know, I feel like it would be punching like a bowling ball or something like that.

I'd probably hurt my hand. I wouldn't. Average weight of a three-year-old. Average weight of a three-year-old is like 40 pounds? 26 to 30. 38 pounds. Okay. 26 pounds.

Never mind. Bring them on. I think you are like... Also, if I get cornered, you'd rather the three-year-olds, dude. If you get cornered, this seems like... If I get cornered, I'm taking the 95-year-olds. I rip their arms out of their socket because they're falling off anyways. I would throw up.

And I would just fucking, you know, like... You might catch one that had some military experience, though. It doesn't matter how old they are. Yeah, but I don't care. Like, they can fight. No, they... Bro, they're 95. I'm sorry, like, even in the best shape at 95,

like, they're not beating a 33-year-old Frankie. Dude, I don't think... Yeah, but a 3-year-old won't even know what to do. I feel like it would run at me and then what's it going to do? Scratch and claw. Go for your eyes, maybe. Go for your eyes. How are they getting to my eyes?

Bro, they're gonna... Like, they don't even need to, like... Here's the thing. I wear long sleeves. Okay, I'm gonna say, like, it's not necessarily a zombie thing, but, like, if a 3-year-old runs at you and just grabs your leg and holds onto it, like, then another one, and then another one, and then

another one. I can just back up. You have more of a chance of them dogpiling you than the 95-year-olds, without a doubt. If I threw my shoe as hard as I possibly can at a 95-year-old, I mean, what do you think any of these? Hold on. The three-year-old's going down. Watch this, watch this.

You want to see how I'm getting away from 95-year-old? Thank you Yeah I mean a 95 year olds can probably Yeah They're blood lusted The average We can't go off of like

Their blood lusted yeah Oh they're lusting They're lusting for blood We have to go off of the average 95 year old We can't go off of like 95 year olds That are like running marathons And shit like that

I mean bro the average 95 year old In Europe's probably like not that bad We didn't specify where they are I know We're saying average of the earth The average 95-year-old is about 166 pounds That's heavy, dude That's a heavy purse

Heavy That's big, man That's like super lightweight Yeah, I know, but it's less than 25 That's like a Pomeranian Did you catch... Pomeranians are like five pounds I would, I'm not taking the Pomeranians

I would take both of these over the Pomeranians I'm dead Because they're fast They're very fast They're faster than both of those. You make a good point that the children could... Can a three-year-old run? Like, run.

Yeah, dude. But can they fall still, no? They could. I mean, like, it depends on the... Like, they wouldn't be able to run down a street without falling. I mean, yeah, they can. Mave does it all the time. Every now and then she trips, but, like, for the most part, she runs and, like, runs.

Also, children get tired quickly. Not nearly... Bro. Running? Running, though, runs. Like, I know he gets tired. Like, oh, we're playing. Bro, children have way more energy than a 95-year-old, dude.

Blood lusted. Blood. It's so much blood lusting for it, and they love it. I don't know if this is a hot take. I think you might be toast either way. I don't know if you can do it. I don't know either. Because even, like, doing enough damage 100 times.

You're going to get tired. Without getting dog piled or something. It's like you are the gorilla. But I have a better chance of catching my breath. with the 95-year-olds. Because I think I said three-year-olds originally, but I'm reverting now. I think I might go 95-year-olds.

Because think about it, if it takes just walking in a quick, like three miles per hour in a direction in order to catch your breath, that's way easier. Like, with kids, dude, kids will not let up. I'm telling you,

I fucking play fight with and play wrestle kids all the time. Yeah. 95-year-olds can strategize, though. What if they all lock arms and like... That's what I'm saying. Come at you. That's a problem.

That's something that I... That's something. That's something you're right. That is. The strategy is big. Can I, could I like, how much money again? Or is it just, it's just, we're not doing for money. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah. What if I, like, will cut off, like, three of my fingers in order to give all the 95-year-old's dementia? What does that even mean? What does that mean? Wouldn't that be worse? Just like, I get it, like, a bit of a, like, an advantage. Oh, you're saying trade.

Yeah. Like, I'll trade three fingers. They all have dementia. I don't think that helps you at all I don't think that's good I think it definitely helps I don't think it does yeah because like in the middle

of trying to fight me they'd just like break out to singing somewhere over the rainbow that would be a great song that would be terrifying that would be terrifying that is a really good song I would think that it's over

yeah I would think something's happening something's wrong if they just stop there just like somewhere over the rainbow I would probably just walk towards them I'd be like well it's over now

I don't want to be way up high And then they snap back into it. Yeah. Blood lusted? Blood loss. I forgot about the blood loss. Yeah, you can't forget about that.

I think it's a toughie. That is a toughie. I don't know if there's a right answer. There's definitely a rough. I'm with you in that 95-year-olds probably move slower. So you can kind of like back up and catch a breath a little more. But they will have the ability to strategize because they have 95 years of experience. Bro, think about this, though.

like if they surround you it's kind of like you're toast if they surround me I just Jerome Bettis style lower the shoulder and run as hard as I can in one direction

but wouldn't you rather run into three-year-olds yeah that's a good point I can probably clear a couple of them I feel like they dive at your legs and you go down if you fall it's so no I'm jumping over yeah anywhere if you fall on either of them

you're yours yeah you can't go down you can't go down because of what Well, a couple things, mainly the bloodlust. Well, the bloodlust thing is huge. I think if, but like, think about this. Two 95-year-olds fall on your back.

You ain't getting enough. You need like six babies on your back, and that's only how much? Like not even 200 pounds. I could get up. I mean, speak for yourself. I could get up with two 160-pound 95-year-olds on my back. Is there an argument to them being harder to hit?

smaller target harder to hit with your fists short because you have to strike down which takes way more energy upper cuts fellas uppercuts but even that's way harder bang and there it goes funny bone was it hysterical uh i feel like it's harder like uppercutting a three-year-old because you have to like you have to like scoop it yeah it's all kicks for three-year-olds It kicks take way more energy Because your legs are heavier Technically, am I bloodlusted Because they're coming at me

I mean, that's your choice I would be bloodlusted Well, I don't think you can have I mean, I guess technically If one side is bloodlusted The other side would be in defense I would be defensively bloodlusted You'd be defensive lusted

Yeah What if you had a bat? Oh my God, dude Ooh, a vampire bat I don't know why that was so funny to this day Because you didn't say it correctly I said it very correctly Vampire Bet

I'm not I'm not doing this fake pronouncing words Kate with you What Bet The bloodlusted is crazy though The bloodlust is a good point Now How many

If it was a million dollars per person How many do you think you can get through and they came one at a time like Royal Rumble style like they came two minutes after the next there was it it was like Hell in a cell no like Royal Rumble style

I had the match right oh I was thinking like elimination chamber sure I mean yeah but like that's only six Royal Rumble gets up to 30 yeah yeah yeah no weapons no weapons

damn eventually you get tired sure but But, like, if it's one-on-one and you're tired, do you have a better chance of... I mean, we're over here arguing this. The number has to be all of them, no? If you send me a one-on-one with a three-year-old, I'd be out there all day. You'd be surprised. Yeah, dude.

You'd be surprised, dude. I'd be floored. You'd be surprised. One child can't, like... Yeah, I'm not saying one. And also, let's... They're not human children. They're vampire children.

These are bloodlusted vampire. Vampire bloodlusted children Because we would never Let's make it very clear We're pacifist We don't want to harm anybody Oh Who would we do that too?

But bloodlusted You put me in a corner? You're bloodlusting? I'm defending myself What's that animal? There's an animal that if you put If you put them in a corner They like kill you to get out of it

I think that's any animal Now that I think about Like a honey badger or something? No, but there's like There's one animal that's like Fuck, is it a mink? That like if you put them in a corner and it's like mud around them.

They'll die before they go through the mud or something like that. Oh, that is a weird one. I don't know. I know rats will eat through you. Yeah, that was like a Japanese torture thing. Oh, yeah. You remember that? It was just like they put a can on you and they weigh it down with a rat inside.

Or they like the can on fire and the cat, the cat, the rat digs through your, that's got to be the worst way to go. I mean, the bamboo sounds way all so bad. What's the bamboo? Where they like lay you, because bamboo is one of the fast. growing things on the planet and they'll lay you over a bed of like young bamboo shoots and like they'll lay you there and like tied up and basically the bamboo shoots will grow through your body i have never heard that yeah that's a bad one i've heard that i've gone

through many a rabbit hole of like medieval torture like the worst ways to go i mean they just use that big cranking one where they pull your arms and legs that sounds bad that one's bad that sounds bad you got any good ones there was one where they would put you in a boat like They put you in a boat, and then another boat on top of you, like upside down. A boat? Yeah, boats, like little row boats. Okay. And they would, like, shove honey and milk down your throat until you're, like, expanded, and then cover you in honey, and then, like, bugs and snakes and rats would come in and eat you.

That doesn't even make sense. Wait, I'm very confused. About. You put a boat on top of a boat. They'd feed me until I was stuffed, and then they would just put me in a boat. What was the point of the boats? I think it's just, like, a dark place that, like, bugs like to go, and they would just eat you. Let me be very clear.

I'm not dying from bugs on a boat. Oh, man. He might be dying from bugs on a boat. He will. I mean, I don't know. I mean, someone will because they'll jump off. I will. The ones that I've seen that are terrible are like,

they tie people to, like, posts, and it's, like, high tide rolls in. Yeah. And then, like, it, like, just goes above their mouth at high tide. Vlad, I think Vlad, the Impaler would put you, like, sit you on a steak, and, like, the steak was, like, really, really, wide but your body would just slowly

go down it anyway from your butt yeah from your butt and then you would just like your innards would just right up top sometimes sometimes it would the duller they would make them is the longer that you would have to it would take you to go down on it so you technically want a pointy stick

that's a bad one that's a really bad one you're telling me if I put my butt on a dull steak that my butt would just accept it eventually it would accept And then it would split my fucking body in half? Yeah. My body doesn't know to stop.

I mean, it can. It's fighting gravity. Gravity always wins. I think they would, like, tie weights to your ankles. So you would, uh... People are sick. There's other ones that are crazy, too. I mean, the one that I heard of, I don't think this is, like, for, like, death,

but it is a form of torture that always got my skin crawling was when they would put bamboo shoots under the fingernails, and they would hammer them in. You love bamboo? You do like that? I don't like it. I mean, I don't mind it. I think watching pandas eat bamboo is very cute.

That's as far as I go. Yeah, there's some crazy, like, torture stuff. The drop on the head. You know that? I can understand why that drives someone crazy, but, like, I tend to probably believe that I am stronger than that. You aren't. I bet it would be less than seven minutes of dropping on your head.

I mean, we can. We're not going to do it. We're not going to be those YouTubers. We're not going to be those YouTubers. There's like, all right, we tried out seven medieval testing torture techniques. You know.

I, I, uh, I water bordered my, board, said, Hote. I waterboarded myself once. On purpose?

Yeah. You ever do it? I think I have. Yo, it's, it's tough. How, I did it in the shower,

I think. You put like a rag over your face. Yeah. Dump water on it. Yeah, you cannot breathe. Like you can't take You can't suck in anything

Look up other crazy to torture techniques Let's be that Why are you talking about torture? Let's be then Let's be those podcaster You know what I don't get This thing The stocks? That's just a public shaming thing

It's like just you know It's just like look at this dumb ass With his bare red ass out in the middle of the fucking town square Red ass Yeah because they would like hit them with stuff Oh they would spank them? I think they would right

I think that yeah it's just like You were probably on a different website no i'm serious i think it was like they would like put them in the stocks and they would have to like hit them and their legs would give out do do you see what the pirates would do walk the plank walk the plank but then they would also like tie you and pull you underneath the boat all the way to the other side of the boat but underneath the boat is like barnacles oh that's it would like your body would be scraped along the bottom side of the boat that is miserable so you're drowning and being scraped that's that's wait how would they do that though how would they get the rope

on the other side i like that question how would they because i know they had a way of doing it but in my head it's old so it's stupid i don't know rope yeah but like what are they going to be like someone swim under and grab this rope for me so we can torture this guy if you throw the rope in front of the boat and the boat goes over it don't you have it on both sides now that's a big rope though and they had big ships you definitely need rope that big I don't know I don't know that's a crazy

one what other ones you got in I know you're a sick freak and you love this shit you horny little fuck you want me to look them up I don't know that's a little walking the plank is I mean that's just more like I mean that's much better than any of the ones that we've talked about I'll be honest with you walking the plank's you know how I feel

about the ocean but there's a small part of me that's like I could survive I mean I just got to float and hope for the best, which the best is probably not coming, especially back then. Oh, the one that I saw that was crazy. It was like they put people in like a metal horse and they light a fire underneath it. A metal horse. A screaming

bowl? Yeah, the bull, bowl, bowl. The screaming bowl? The screaming bowl? The pair of anguish. Oh, I know this one, the pair of anguish. What's the pair of anguish? So they would put this in mouths of people that, sometimes butts, but mostly mouths of people that were like speaking wrong or like behind it back, and they would just slowly

open it, like a vice like this. Yeah. And it would just like essentially stop you from being able to talk and also be painful. Okay. Oh, you would just break your jaw? Yeah, it would like slowly expand your jaw. Like, oh, the saw. That's not cool, but like, there's no barnacles.

I mean, that's fucking horrible. Is that the bull one? Yeah, this is your screaming bull. Yeah, that one's crazy. That is, like, that is unbelievably nightmarish. The guy who, um, created it for, like, the emperor or whatever, they tossed them in there and did it to them. Not cool.

What? You heard of that one, right? No. So, it's a, they build a metal bull. Big brass bull And they would put someone in it And then they would light a fire underneath And it would cook them

And their screams would come out of like Little tiny holes And the bull's nose And it sounded like a bowl screaming Fucked up Humans are disgusting That one is fucked up I don't like it

You heard it here first Rat torture not into that at all That's the thing we talked about No The tongue tear They used to do that back in like Ancient Egypt right They'd be like

You stole Give me your tongue Thumb screw I have a feeling I'm gonna hate that they would just tie your thumbs together like this screw it in it's just like uncomfortable sometimes they would put it behind their back like that and yeah that sucks but bro how do you know all this a lot of rabbit holes he's a freak the iron maiden actually wasn't real do you know that

like they never really i don't know what it is to begin with the thing from uh the the the thing from uh matilda oh the the choky the choky yeah oh it'd be like spikes on one they never really used that i think it was more for fear intimidation got it i mean why not that's a cool looking fucking thing. The heretic fork's a good one. So that what they would do is they would tie... I love I was talking about this. Like, oh God, this is such a cool move. So they would tie like a kind of like a pitchfork, like a mini pitchfork underneath here. Yeah. So you can't like you always had to look up. I think it was like a prayer thing or like a religious thing. And any time you like your neck got tired and try to look down, it would pierce you. Not good.

I saw that like there's like allegedly some military training that does that where they like put pins in their collars and like to keep the person's posture they have to be like that and if they go forward it'll fucking poke them could be making it up but I think it's big in the Japanese military like perfect posture and stuff like that I love for you're not sure but you're willing

to say that I'm not sure who it is but I'm pretty sure it's these groups of people I'm about 72% sure 72 it's not bad sorry for the history last time I'm bad I got excited I mean yeah clearly you strike me as a history

guy. You gotta know where you were to know where you're going. Oh, God. That's crazy. Well, there you have it, folks. Hope you enjoy torture. To torture. I hope you enjoyed the torture tank talk. I told you had a good time at the beach me would.
