Starting point is 00:00:01 God damn. I'm supposed to ignore how you look today. How I look? What are you fucking? I'm supposed to just ignore how you... CIA? What is he talking about? Because you look insane.
Starting point is 00:00:23 You understand? Because you look insane. You look like you want to buy me cigarettes. I look normal. And I'm old enough to buy cigarettes. Nothing you're wearing is part of one guy. Like everything is... Everything is a different guy.
Starting point is 00:00:36 And a different age of guy. I've worn this outfit a ton. It's the sunnies. I mean, the sunnies change the entire... They change the fit. My sunglasses. It's like adding a molecule to oxygen. Now you can't breathe it.
Starting point is 00:00:49 You can't breathe it now. You don't understand me now. Do you think we'll ever be able to breathe something that's not oxygen? And Cush? You can't. It just doesn't feel good. It doesn't feel like you live, right? You can't live off of it.
Starting point is 00:01:02 I should have said survive off. I could breathe weed and live. And I would become a professor. You could breathe weave and you could see. You could see, bro. You could also ascend. You could and I could. And I could.
Starting point is 00:01:14 fly. Weed is, I'm not, I know, maybe some dumb to say, so awesome that we do that. Like so awesome. What about tobacco? It's the same thing. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:01:24 It's not the same thing. Very different. Burn of plants and you feel okay. One makes you wrap. How do you know? How do you know? It's not just, I want us to make you rap. The one is just kind of yucky.
Starting point is 00:01:33 But you like it. It's bad. It's good yucky. It's good yucky. Murphy is good yucky. But weed is a, is the freestyle potion. Speaking of that good.
Starting point is 00:01:44 yucky how about you all check your pants right now oh my god you see what you see in there what happened to my clan what you see in there do you see a tier list is it on the bottom of my shoe oh there it is there it is we guys it's a tearless episode you know you know you love it when we can categorize things and put them in boxes I love putting them on a list this thing this one I think is interesting because my mind feels you can't escape you we do a gamer tier list and you've never played a game in your life. You could escape that tier list. This one, nobody escapes. No. Nobody escapes. Awkward. You've dealt with this. This is socially awkward situations ranked.
Starting point is 00:02:26 And this is also, I think, of all the tier lists, the one that slime had the most input on. So a lot of the prompts come from him. I think me and Aiden combined have about the same amount you contributed alone. I'm gonna fucking shut up and lie to you really quick, but not lie. I'm gonna tell the truth. I actually asked the Yard Discord to help out with this one. Wow. And they have to, some really good ones. Because again, it's all ubiquitous, right? Who is more awkward than our fans? And those motherfuckers are awkward. I met y'all. I had to mute two people in there. Oh my God. Meeting a Yard fan. Is that on their suggestions? No, it's not. Oh my God. Two people started, they started blogging too much. I muted them. I said, this is not the prompt. Mistake. I just, I've
Starting point is 00:03:01 smacked them on the head. I said, this is not the prompt. Meeting a yard fan is not on here. It's such a good one. We can add it later. It's not always awkward, but when it is. When it is, smooth off. I mean, You're smiling at them. You're just like, yeah, man, it's like so cool. Dude, they keep talking because they don't know what to do. Like, he's listening. I must keep talking. He's listening now.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Dude, I, okay, I was at Frankensoons this weekend and I met a yard fan. And, uh, I'm, look, I'm not going to throw any shade at the guy, but like, he belonged in a Frankenstone. That's his vibe. That's like his makeup. If you told me that, it would be hands. Uh, so. But I just, well, I'm going to follow up with something very positive.
Starting point is 00:03:39 This guy, you know, he fit. the bill of someone walking around Franken's and he goes, Nick, and he extends the posture of like a dapp, like a real and I am... A crunchy one. I'm down, but I'm like, I don't think you're the clientele
Starting point is 00:03:55 that's going to nail this kind of situation. When I say, it was just an electric dab. It clapped and everyone had heard and heads turned to see, what was that pop? What was that? An unexpectedly amazing dab. Wow. From the
Starting point is 00:04:11 And then he kissed you? No, no, he just kept it moving. No even conversation. He just kept it pushing That's amazing. That's sticking the landing. I'm crazy? Is that not a boring fucking story? No, no makeout No, no Always with this guy always with this guy with his aviators. I just say I got a little bit chub off the idea of aiden hearing a story and being like that was boring Yeah, I got a little excited at that. I was like dude do that You never do that but he was only doing a bit about being just ravenously sexual what are we putting up here. He's doing a bit about how we always act, but thinking it's so ridiculous of an idea
Starting point is 00:04:47 to say that to someone. Yeah, we just accepted it. I would just tell you your story sucks. We liked that. We liked you doing that. He actually just came... Don't flip it on me. He came from L.S. and he was in a grump or move.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Oh, because he was like Aitchrock was eating his weight in orange chicken. And he was requesting... I ate a chili. He starts hiccuping. Oh, oh, help I want a chilies. Oh, I guess the crab rag goes. Braccoons are to a number. You have to fucking fire a Zelda slingshot of a tom into his mouth. This is fine. This is fine. He deserves it today. So these are our tiers. We have five tiers on this
Starting point is 00:05:22 tier list from from worst to not that bad. One, smooth off. This happens. You instantly just like, I don't really need to be here. You have to leave Earth. You're done. It's so awkward that you would be rather leave the planet in the in the realm in which we exist. I'm actually interested in Aiden because I asked Aiden to submit some of these two and he had some really good ones. And then I realize, like, he's kind of the most impervious to awkwardness of us. He's not imp- He kind of refuses to believe in it as a concept. Like, Aidan believes that awkward is something you can deny. I also think you can. That's the elevated Chad take, but Aden goes about it in such ridiculous, clownish ways. I think there's just these scenarios. So I don't really trust it.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Hey, hey, man. Am I crazy? Yes, and stupid and ugly. What? What? Does it? There's, I, I, I, I, I, I think I had good ones. You did have some good ones. Sometimes there's stuff like fucking up handshakes. Sometimes people get mad at you for having sunglasses on inside. And some people get really heated about that. You feel a little embarrassed about it. Logical.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Because you just wanted to wear your sunglasses inside and you thought it might be cool. After Smovoff, it goes endless haunting. These are the ones that really stick with you. Think about them years later. You might think Smov off and Endless Haunting are the same thing, but Smov off is instantaneous. I need to get the fuck out. Oh yeah. My life's over.
Starting point is 00:06:39 It's over. This is, I did the most awkward thing possible my life is over. Unless haunting is like the things you wake up at 3, I'm going like, oh god. Oh my God, I did. That wasn't even a dream. I actually did that once. You start like singing to yourself to like forget about it really quick. During the Mango Chan to comedy on.
Starting point is 00:06:53 And if you think about it, most people have had sunglasses on inside at some point. Yes, yes. Celebrated commenters such as Vro has had sunglasses. The next one is day ruiner. Obviously not something you're going to lie awake about, but definitely all day. That day. You're thinking about it, but tomorrow it's over. You're not thinking about that longer than one day.
Starting point is 00:07:13 And this is probably the most common. Next tier is no big deal. Honestly, it might feel at the moment, oh God, but then you think about it for like a couple seconds, it's actually no big deal. It's not a big deal. And then the last one, the last one, low-key, a good thing.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Yeah, I came up with this one. I thought it was important that we entertain the idea that some of these things are not awkward. They're actually awesome. Maybe I have damage to my corneas and I don't need to share that with anybody around me. The glasses thing. You're really on it.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Can you fucking crush them in your hand like Goro in the Mortal Kombat movie? Where did you get them? Did you buy them? You guys are coming at me crazy. It's like we're cornering them at a liquor store. You guys, I was just bringing up an example of what a lot of people deal with
Starting point is 00:08:00 and I think you guys are hanging on to it. Something that didn't make the list, but Aidan did submit. And I think we can start this thing off with just me remembering this is I was Aiden Aiden was like laying in bed with a girl he was seeing and he was watching a movie on a laptop on his laptop
Starting point is 00:08:18 and on his laptop get all of the notifications from his phone and what pops up on his laptop is hey it's whoever from Tinder what's going on and Aiden told me about this I'm like what the fuck did you do and he's like I stopped the movie
Starting point is 00:08:34 and I said would you like to talk about that Which is the best thing Honestly the best thing to do Beautifully navigating But to talk But to say that out loud Is hilarious
Starting point is 00:08:44 It is funny You pause the movie But also you pause And David Schwimmer walks in What would your chud ass do In this situation So yeah And again
Starting point is 00:08:58 Giving you credit I think that was expertly navigated I'm happy to remember that It's funny to say that out loud God that is like That is like the perfect awkward situation Yes. That is like said it is very awkward.
Starting point is 00:09:08 And it was one that was hard to fit into the little boxes on the tier list. So yeah, let's let's get to it. Zipper grab, grab the first one. Calling someone the wrong name. I like I like to believe that this is someone that you have met before and you're maybe coming back into a group scenario where you've absolutely spent a bit of time with them. But maybe you like also spent time with one of their friends. One of them is Jake and one of them is Sean.
Starting point is 00:09:34 And then when you meet them, you go, dude, Jake, so good to see you. again, they're like, oh, I'm actually Sean. Like, that was, Jake is the other one that you met. It depends. It applies to a lot of these. I think I've told this story before, but growing up, there was a young woman who was in high school with me that died in a snowmobiling
Starting point is 00:09:51 accident. Big fucking surprise. Fucking, everyone dies around slime. What the fuck do you want from me? Didn't say anything. Didn't even say anything. Fucked up. He's going to the wormhole right now trying to try to find. Anyway, her name is Emily. She had a sister
Starting point is 00:10:07 name Hannah. And Hannah, years and years later, it was like this, it was obviously tragedy, and everyone knew Emily, and it was very sad. Later on at a party, years later, we're all out of high school. Hannah makes a beer pong shot at a party. And I say, let's go, Emily. I just fucked up.
Starting point is 00:10:23 I didn't try to say that. And that, I think that might be the worst way for this to happen. Yeah, that is by far bottom of the barrel. It's funny, because we have to kind of, I feel like that's a different one. It is a different one. That's a different one. Calling somebody by a notably dead person's name
Starting point is 00:10:38 mutual. It doesn't say dead person like using a dead person's name so I'm gonna go ahead and say it's it's like more like mine maybe even slightly worse. I'm gonna actually make a case for this in The Endless Haunting. Because insane. Interesting. And I know but follow me. My local
Starting point is 00:11:00 accused misogynist follow me down this line I actually do have this this fear that comes to be realized sometimes where I realize that I'm, I'm meeting a friend's girlfriend for maybe the fourth time in a couple years. I can't remember her name. And then, and then I'm starting to think about, wow, I'm not remembering this woman's name, this important person of my friend in his life. And the fact, the mere fact that I'm struggling with this woman's name is this something in front of me that I need to confront? And the fact that I am, do I indeed have something wrong or patriarchal embedded within me and evil? I remember the boys' names. And why have I
Starting point is 00:11:42 remembered all my boys' friends' names, but not hers? And you embarked down this endless, the mind. Babe, I don't remember that goddess's name. I don't remember. I don't remember. I don't know. Oh, the chocked bitch. I don't know her name. And then I lie awake at night and I think about that because it's not just about forgetting somebody's name. It's about forgetting her name that many times and I might be evil inside. A big part of this is how many times have you done this? I think this is a first offense and this is the most common version of this is it's a first offense and it's more like they have to correct you. I think it lies between day runer and NBD. I will say on the P2 side of this being called the wrong name. I had a boss when I worked at Land Rover. He just called
Starting point is 00:12:28 me Andy every day and I just stopped correcting him. I'm Andy now. My dad used to call my girlfriend in the wrong name, like all the time. That's crazy. And we had been together for years. And I was, and I, after a point, I would just be like, brother. Like, I don't, whatever her name is today for you, that's fine. I don't care. You just have to.
Starting point is 00:12:47 For you, it sounds like it's, it's more than a day-rooner. I think if the, is, if the context is you've forgotten somebody's name multiple times. Like, like, if you're, if this is like the fifth time you've met the person, which happens sometimes, then it's day-ruiner to endless haunting for me. But if this is the first, like, first or second. I think it's like way more appropriate. It's like the easiest thing in the world. If you've met a person for the second time
Starting point is 00:13:11 or the third time and they've been really spaced out, it is actually so easy to cut through the discomfort by just saying, I'm so sorry, what was your name again? Hold on, but that is not calling someone the wrong name. That is not remembering their name. Oh, which is actually very different. I'm actually conflating. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Yeah, you're forgetting someone's name. I'm sorry. This is calling them the wrong name. This is more likely to be the scenario where you have met them a few times and you just call them the wrong, Like, because to say the wrong name would be a confidence. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Which means you know them. Okay, this, actually, this is borderline. This is day-rooner for me. I think it's a day-rooner. I don't know why this happens. Because they don't look alike. They don't do the same things. The only thing they have in common really is that they both play Super Smash Bros.
Starting point is 00:13:53 We have this thing at basketball where we have called Y-Hat Eli because of D's like 10 times. And I have no idea why it happens. Forgettable personality. Gray. Kind of gray. And I feel so bad because Wyatt Yat's name is Wyatt. It should be the most easy
Starting point is 00:14:13 thing of all. But this has happened so many times and I feel so bad every single time it has happened. I think also just like becoming closer friends with that person after that just like gets rid of this. You don't ever think about it again. This isn't something you happened that happens to someone who's close to you, which can also
Starting point is 00:14:29 feel kind of shitty. Yeah, I'm going Day Rooner here. I think Day Rooner's fine. because all day you're like, ugh, but then the next day you're like, whatever. I'm not thinking about that. The next one. Next one. The next one is just...
Starting point is 00:14:41 Oh, you can do it in order. You can do it in order. I kind of arranged them fun in order. Tripping. So this is, this is, it's like you're walking, usually talking, a sidewalk crack. Yeah, so I was... It happened to me yesterday.
Starting point is 00:14:58 No, actually, you know what? It happened two times in a row within 30 seconds, where we were walking on like a fucked up Hollywood street and it was one of those curbs that like is like you can't really tell but it's even like this and I just kick it and I just trip forward I catch myself I don't fall on the ground or anything and I'm just like oh wow what the hell
Starting point is 00:15:16 a couple steps later again I do the same thing I don't feel like it was too awkward but it's embarrassing for sure like it's like what am I a fucking I don't kick my feet up enough my lazy bitch why are they not tripping most of these are embarrassing right that's why they exist awkwardness and embarrassment go hand in hand.
Starting point is 00:15:35 And sometimes embarrassment doesn't always lead to the awkward energy. Like no one is just put into an awkward state by the embarrassing act. Sure. But for me, I would place this as no big deal. Guy who trench twice. I knew that was coming up. If you do it two times a row, it's like, can you even do it right? Obviously a guy like me.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Well, it could also be low-key, a good thing, depending on how awesome your friend. is. Lo-key, a good thing if you, like, trip, but you, like, do the thing. You know how, like, some cool guys, they trip and they, like, turn it into push-ups? You ever seen that? That's, yeah. That would be low-key, a good thing. That's a salvageable situation.
Starting point is 00:16:14 My question is, what if you're speaking? When you trip twice where you're speaking? Um, I think it's no big deal because you trip twice while you're speaking, and then you make some sort of bang or joke, and everything is awesome. Salvageable situation. It's very salvageable situation. I think salvageable situations can ultimately end up in NBD. What is the most awkward way?
Starting point is 00:16:32 you could trip. Let's, we'll start there. When you're, when you're angrily yelling at somebody. That is really funny. No, you always fucking do this. I'm fucking tired. Listen to what I'm saying. Tripp. Like, combine this. I actually do think there's a, there's, with growing up and did you ever have a
Starting point is 00:16:52 a parent tell you to stop like shuffling your feet or stop dragging your feet? No. I've heard that before, yeah. And I think feeling, the most embarrassing I've ever felt about it is being, told that, being angry at parent internally, and then immediately doing it, immediately tripping because I continue dragging my feet. Oh, man. Yeah, maugged, parent-mogged. But this has to go an MBD because I don't think I've ever spent more than five minutes thinking about it. Uh, I'm fine with that. I'm also an MBD guy. Feels like an NBD thing. Honestly, it's pretty cool. How about
Starting point is 00:17:26 you pull up the next one, somewhat of a nuclear bomb, calling the teacher mom. Oh, yeah. I think This is smooth off. I did this one. I've everyone's done it, bro. Yeah, I did this. That's the thing. It's, um... Uh-uh. You've never called the teacher mom? I've made it through.
Starting point is 00:17:43 Dude. I've made it through. I've lived to this point. Yeah. It's the worst shit in the world. Especially when the teacher's a boy. Nah, I didn't do that. Dude, uh... I...
Starting point is 00:17:54 You know, it's weird. It's... I'm finding an issue with the structure of the tier list in that I believe it's smooth off. But I also, it does not endlessly haunt me. So it's weird that it's like somehow worse? That's what I'm trying to
Starting point is 00:18:08 explain through this structure is that some things are smooth off and they may also endlessly haunt you but they may also not. I think when I sat on that preschool mat with the trains in the carpet and there's a town. I did in preschool? And I call it, yeah, very young. Bro, no, I'm talking high school.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Oh, I did not do this in an adult. It's insane. Are you serious? You did this an adult? Oh, man. I was in an adult. It was like four Teen. Tell yourself. Sorry, definitely not. High school is not adults. I don't know why I was saying that. But you did this as like a, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:38 I was like a teenager. You were in high school. You're basically an adult. You're 14 years old. I was mature enough to decide. You can make a decision. I did this in like preschool. I know I'm talking about middle school and
Starting point is 00:18:49 well let me finish my thought. So when I'm sitting on that mat and I called the teacher mom, I think if I killed myself life would have been, good choice. I think that would have probably avoided a lot of maybe personality traits, things that, you know. So for me, I think it's a smooth off situation.
Starting point is 00:19:02 For you, it's worse. Is there a worse one to smooth off? It's yeah, ultra smooth off Like baby smooth off I think the hottest girl at school should get to kill you In front of the school with a chainsaw Yeah, I think this one is smooth off Especially the older you get and I'm talking about that worst-case situation with is eighth grade and then ninth grade 10th grade I think if you're a junior in high school and you do this you're actually Developmentally you need to solve something I I mean you have to take me through this because I've I've never made this mistake. And I never would.
Starting point is 00:19:34 I fucking hate Derek. So how did it make you feel? It was 10. Okay, here's what happens, right? You need something from the teacher. Maybe you have a question. It's kind of like, they're not a lecturing. It's not a lecturing section. They're just, everyone's doing work or something. And you go, mom.
Starting point is 00:19:51 And you would be to go, Ma. Miss Applebee's? And honestly, it depends on whether or not the people in your classroom are evil fuckers or not. Oh, no, you're getting bullied. Is it in high school? Does it feel similar to saying love you on the phone by accident to somebody you don't know?
Starting point is 00:20:09 I've never done that. You done that? Yeah. I think if you call the teacher mom, they should pull your pants down in class, take a picture of your penis with a flash on, and put it in the yearbook. I think you should suffer the worst punishment. It is the worst. If no one objects, it's smooth off.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Look, only you have experienced it. Shut the fuck me. I didn't, Derek. Have you ever done this? The thing, um? You've ever done this? I've never done this. I didn't talk to my teachers.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I was talking to hot chicks in school. Oh my God. I hate Derek. Dude, Derek is always talking about burritos and banging fucking models, dude. And Halo. Talking to the teachers was fucking gay, dude.
Starting point is 00:20:48 God, does it really smooth off? I gotta really think about it. I mean, yeah. It might be an endless haunting. No, no, here's what. As a guy who's done this, I don't think about it later and I'm like, ooh, that still applies.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Because a lot of things that happen in some, like, high school setting, you're like, ah, you know, kids are kids, whatever. And it doesn't, it doesn't remain. Although some, once again, smooth off can also endlessly haunt you. But there's a severity to it. But it is an instant I want to die situation. Wow.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Okay, can I make a vouch? Can I actually, can I actually, oh, God, I want to change the category. Hear me out. I'll hear me out. What if endless haunting is the worst one? And before that is like long cool down. or something. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:21:33 that can work. Because I feel like the difference, sometimes being alive and haunted for the rest of your life is worse than being dead. Yeah, okay. Can you do that?
Starting point is 00:21:43 Death is an escape. If you, it's the gear on the right, zipper. You just move it up. Death is an escape from torment. Yep. That none of you should seek
Starting point is 00:21:52 to be clear. But is, you know. I'm fine with this change. I think this makes sense. And I don't think it, paradoxically, doesn't change much
Starting point is 00:22:01 of what's going on. okay so we're making that we're just making the claim that being haunted by it forever is worse than just blowing your shit off what happens i would say it is i'm fine with that i like that i don't like being haunted um all right can you guys read them up there are you blind i'm just confused it's really dark are you now a blind guy this is i'm gonna come take them off this is what bro did bro would just wear the glasses and then just talk about them endlessly and then he stopped his landlord.
Starting point is 00:22:33 So let's go on to Thought You Were Alone Singing. Thought you were alone? Okay, so caught singing. Caught singing. Well, if you're Kyle Mooney, this is actually an opportunity
Starting point is 00:22:41 for to begin the career of a lifetime. It does change your life. Changes your life for the better. But if you're me, um, ooh, this is bad. Cot singing. Now how bad?
Starting point is 00:22:51 Because I, here's the thing, in the office. It's a day ruiner. If you're in the office, so anyone in this office who hears me fucking singing, I think it's like, I go,
Starting point is 00:23:00 I turn around and I go, Like, a good thing. Dude, the song matters. The song matters. So I did this. And I remember,
Starting point is 00:23:07 and it's a bit of a haunter because it was a U-2 song and I hate U-2. And it wasn't, it was my, the guy my mom was seeing at the time. It wasn't even a very important person in my life,
Starting point is 00:23:17 but he heard me singing a song and I was really trying to sing it and I was so embarrassed. I endlessly am haunted by this, but again, because it was one of the shittiest bands of all time. When I was in high school, of me and Aaron actually were we had like an agreement because we were we were trying to become
Starting point is 00:23:35 good singers but we didn't want anyone at school we wanted to be get better at singing but we didn't want anyone at school to hear it or like no so we would we would privately send each other like us singing and get like notes no way this is so vulnerable yeah it's very vulnerable and so we so I had a video I'm sorry not a video sorry I had it was an audio like the iPhone audio app. I had an audio recording of me singing, like trying as hard as I can. What song? Nick? Dude, I don't, I don't know. What song could it have been? It was so long ago. It would
Starting point is 00:24:04 be, dude, it would be like the worst. Do you girls bad guys? No, no, no, no, no. It would be like a song by like, like, like, Incubis or Anne Berlin or like some, one of these bands. Let me like that. Like something like really lame. Or like a band that's just two guys both with acoustic guitars. Like something like that.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Oh yeah. Can't remember what it was though. Maybe I could check my phone. Maybe I have it. Anyway, fast forward. I don't remember, I was dating someone and I was looking for, I was just like, like, casually looking through like my voice memos, not knowing what any of them were like, oh, that one's kind of funny. And I play the one of me singing. Whatever to my mind.
Starting point is 00:24:39 It gets, dude, it gets like three seconds in. And I pause it and I'm like, oh my God, don't worry about that. I just keep going. And like, what was that? Let me hear it. I didn't let them hear it, but it was, ooh, it was a day ruiner for sure at the very least. It was so awkward.
Starting point is 00:24:54 I think I, I'm down for day. A-rooner, because I, this one bounces out in a weird way where as an adult, I actually don't feel very much embarrassment about it anymore. It just goes into this, oh, that was kind of funny category. But as a child, this was traumatizing. So I mean, do you have any of poses in the shower? Poses? Yeah. Do you ever strike a pose in the shower? I don't think I've ever done this in my life. You walk around your house like yelling random things. I do that. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you ever act out random things? Not really. Never. I'm a verbal guy.
Starting point is 00:25:26 I'm trying to imagine what I would do like freeze I'm a detective like I'm a detective and I finally found him freeze no I don't do that but as I explain this to you it sounds like it'd be really fun do you do this yeah I ran him yeah I talked to myself but no act out little things yeah what are you act out I don't know if I'm just having a thought I might mime it to myself do you know what I used to you know you know an old Mario Party games when Waluji wins a mini game and he has a whole thing and he goes like ah yeah dude I'm I used to do that.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Like, you just kind of like, you have like a thought and you kind of do it. I don't think I do any of this. I'm imagining in my head, like, like someone walking in on me miming something to myself. And that is like the ultimate. That is like the ultimate torment. Nine year old,
Starting point is 00:26:11 again, what would please? What would it be? A nine year old me in the shower doing the animation of Walauchi hitting the block in Mario party and it. And your cock flops up and down. Yeah. And my little dick's sticking out.
Starting point is 00:26:24 And my mom walks in or something. I don't know. Dude, imagine breaking your neck doing that. Ooh. Day Rooner. I can't find this to be a smooth off. This is just a dayrooter,
Starting point is 00:26:35 no matter what, the context. It really sucks the rest of the day, but tomorrow's, I'm over it. I'm okay with that. Yeah, day rooner. It's weird. Did you add my one I was thinking about, which is all the cool kids
Starting point is 00:26:44 come to the library and find you playing Yu-Gi-o with a Naruto headband on? This happened? You did this? Derek, please. No. Derek, tell me that you did
Starting point is 00:26:55 because we're going to have to kick you out of the frat, bro. Like that movie split. It's like, is it came with Aden in there? Can we talk to him right now there? Purely hypothetical scenario. You had a Naruto headband and you were playing Yu-Gio. You wore a hard of a headband. Pick a struggle.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Did you wear it to school? Did you bring it to, you were it from home? Absolutely not. Only in this small closed room at the library. Okay, so what didn't happen when all these people didn't find you? What didn't happen? Yeah. Hector walked in.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Well, we can imagine his name's Hector. He walked in. And he said, Yu-kyo? And he said, Aided. And then he just walked out. Damn. And I was like...
Starting point is 00:27:33 And then you try to kill yourself with a big dictionary. Yeah. So anyway, the next one is the wave behind. Wave behind. This is when someone waves at you and then you wave back and they weren't waving at you. Yeah. I've said this on the podcast before, but I had one of probably the most brutal version of this situation where
Starting point is 00:27:58 the first time I ever met Kaide was at a TwitchCon where she waved enthusiastically right at me and sorry I waved sorry I waved past her at at Zekin I think it was and I was like hey and then she thought I was waving at her
Starting point is 00:28:14 so she enthusiastically waves back and for some reason usually I think I'm quicker than this for some reason I said oh no I meant him instead of just saying nice to meet you like a fucking normal person. You missed the QTE. And it clearly was like, like, she was like, oh, like,
Starting point is 00:28:32 like what a dick thing to say. And I'm like, very reasonable response. I don't know why I just said that. Hi up. Oh, you're walking away. Right. Sorry. It was incredibly awkward. It's so crazy. Because this is the reverse of the wave behind. And it's so much worse. Yeah. Well, can we imagine that? If your Kai day, is it worse? Um, no, it's worse for me. No, it's definitely worse. It's worse for Nick. I think it's worse if you thought you were being waved at. No. It's worse because that's like the level one. I think the guilt of me like fucking up the interaction after so badly outweighs the awkwardness of her waving nicely.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Anything that has true guilt interwoven into the embarrassment is just layers worse. Here's my argument against is that in her position, she can only feel shitty. There is no way she can play this off. She has made a mistake in being mistaken. Nick, if he is a sociopath, he could just not care. He could pretend he didn't see her waving back, right? So there is a reasonable out in which... Yeah, but if we were doing this tier list and it was the sociopath version,
Starting point is 00:29:36 they'd all go in NBD. Do you understand what I'm saying is like she only loses in this situation when Nick can win by pretending he didn't see her in a massive QTE? Do you understand? I think it's because she, in her position, in the hypothetical scenario, because we've all been in her position. She's like kind of the victim here. And Nick is not really the victim.
Starting point is 00:29:56 So I would put this in day ruiner. I think it's a day ruiner. I think no matter what it's a day ruiner, but I did like to think about, you know, who had it worse. I still maintain that it's the way V because it's like,
Starting point is 00:30:07 yeah, guess what? No one was talking to you. That's a bad feeling. You agree, Aiden? Day ruiner. Day ruiner. I'm locking this in. All right. So, slime, you're going to have to explain your system to me
Starting point is 00:30:20 because you have P1 written at the end of long slash unfunny video. So this one, this one I think is important enough to distinguish between P1 and P2 and rank them. This is the long, unfunny video, long slash unfunny and or. You show your friend, bro, you got to watch this. You load it
Starting point is 00:30:35 up on your phone, you sit next to them. You are saying, bro, come look at this video, and it's just not that funny, and it's taking a long time. And you find yourself, you're like laughing out loud at the sections you want them to laugh at. You're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
Starting point is 00:30:51 you're like chuckling, and then they don't laugh and you're kind of like, Yeah, like, oh, I've had this experience with a movie. It was my, it was Black Dynamite. I was like, my friend Robbie, I was like, bro, let's watch Black Diamond and you're gonna love this movie. Just crickets the whole time. And I'm like, I fucking, I'm sorry. I wanted to go home.
Starting point is 00:31:06 I wanted to go home. Because it's a movie, it's the longest type of video. It's the longest video. It's the longest video. We're halfway through like a three minute video, you pause it and go like, we don't have to watch the whole thing. Oh my God, bro. It's really, it's, for you, it's painful.
Starting point is 00:31:21 It's kind of awkward for the other person. right? But what's the P1 described? Who are we? P2 is the person that was told to watch the video. Okay, so P1 is a person Watch this video. Showing the video. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:32 And I think for me, this is smooth off. This is smooth off. It's such a, it's such a clean, long burn. Is this? Is this endless hot? No. Because there's a lot of videos in the world. And this mistake gets made on a lot of sides.
Starting point is 00:31:47 But this is like this flash in the pan. Like, like I think it's sort of the, the feeling of like I rope someone into this and they're sitting there and nothing's happening and there's much more of a clean raw burn and that makes it smooth off. It's only that. It's like when I'm showing them the video, this video is essentially me and their lack of enjoyment of it is basically them saying you suck ass and you're not funny. And so I'm like showing them and I'm like, right, by bad.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Because you know what? You could just have sent it to them. You could be like, hey, watch that video I sent you. It's funny. But you're making the decision to be like, come here and look over. my shoulder at my phone right now. You're hijacking the moment. Yeah, it better be worth it.
Starting point is 00:32:27 And when it's not, it's like, wow, I'm such a pussy. And you fail. Does that, where does that put, do you agree to smooth off, Aiden? Absolutely. Okay, well, I absolutely. Where would that place, long, unfuny video from the other person's perspective?
Starting point is 00:32:38 I actually think it's a day ruiner. This is, this is an easier path to, to walk. For sure. I think so, I think, so you have a lot of control in this situation. You could just fake laugh. But this is what, you, this is the, same logic that you just dissuaded me on. Is P2 not the victim in the situation? P2 was not
Starting point is 00:32:59 the aggressor in the situation. Kidei, if Nick never existed, Kidae is never in that situation. Right, right, right. That's kind of the point I was trying to make. If I never existed, Kitey's probably like the president. There's probably some like butterfly effect that she benefits greatly from. You change the trajectory. So you're the guy. If someone comes up to you, bro, you've got to watch this video. You're like, okay, and you're watching. And you're watching. and they're kind of looking over at you and you're like oh this sucks and you can make a decision
Starting point is 00:33:25 you can start laughing you know what I do in these situations because I've kind of been a little older been around I say this isn't funny right now is there a part that's funny but I basically say I trust you that this is funny
Starting point is 00:33:38 but this isn't funny right now I just suffer through I just watch the video pathetic I just watch the video maybe it gets better I want to take control back I tank I tank it
Starting point is 00:33:48 you tank it you tank it I tank it What do you want me to fucking say? If it's someone I don't know, that's fucked up. Like someone you made at a party, they're like, bro, they want to connect with you. Bro, check this video out. But I think I'd even go as far as say, no big deal. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:34:04 It's a day ruiner for sure. I mean, look, I experience very, this is a secondhand embarrassment, right? Like, the person who it's happening to is receiving secondhand. But that's what I mean. It doesn't stick with you. But it's ultimately fine. Secondhand embarrassment leads to an awkwardness that is like really bad for me. I hate,
Starting point is 00:34:19 I hate feeling that way. They put the phone away and be like, ah, I guess another funny. And now I'm like, I'm like, oh, no, dude,
Starting point is 00:34:27 hilarious video. And I'm like sitting in it. I'm like, yeah, this is what I want to die. But I'm never going to think about it next day as the person. Oh,
Starting point is 00:34:36 this would never haunt me as PTA. I'm too much of an empath. Too much to think about it. I'm like, yeah, they made a faux pa. Who cares? They're awesome.
Starting point is 00:34:43 So I'd say day ruiner. I think, I think it is a day ruiner. It's something that, let's say you're having a really good time at the party and this happens, you kind of got to get those, you got to find those vibes back. Oh, maybe it is no big deal, Aden.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Really? I think it's no big deal. I think I'm being persuaded by him not saying anything, actually. I'm just coming towards you in the room. I think it's just no big deal. I mean, I can, I'm willing to be overruled here, but. There's something in me that wants to alleviate them. I want to like spare them. You have the control to fix it.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah, I'm like, so I'm just kind of like, you know what, like whatever. I have all of the control and autonomy to make it better for them. But if you're the person showing the video, it rests on you. You're in hell right now.
Starting point is 00:35:26 Yeah, you've caused this. You made your choice. Sure. I'm okay with no big deal. I think both, there's arguments for both of these, but I'm willing to lean on the good of mankind to make it better.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Bated into penis categories. Let's go. You've been baited into balls and shaft. Whatever. What is it, dude? Nothing, bro. It's definitely something because you're making the upset noises.
Starting point is 00:35:49 All I had for breakfast was beetles again. Again? Yeah, it was just a big handful of beetles. It's all I had for breakfast, I guess. Why did you eat? Are you doing this more? Where did you get beetles?
Starting point is 00:36:01 It was all I had. Enough Beatles for breakfast. And it's all I'm all pissy. I'm all pissy for the podcast because I just had a handful of beetles and that's all I ate again. You could try, I mean, you could try a lot of different things. I feel like you might like you'll. Why?
Starting point is 00:36:16 Go ahead and retry it right behind you. Because it's a whole, whoa. I set something up for you. What's this? That's Hewell. And it's not exclusively not beetles. Really? Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Yeah. I mean, I don't like the beetles. It's the, well, I don't like eating them. So this is just food? Yeah. This is basically an entire meal. Dude, you could get a ready to drink bottle just like this one. It has a bunch of essential vitamins and nutrients.
Starting point is 00:36:41 And it saves you time. It definitely saves you more time than a bunch of beetles because I don't even know where you source those. Yeah, I hate it. I have to dig them out of the ground. It sucks. I'm an unhappy guy. I gotta be honest, I almost feel bad recommending this to you because there's just, it's such a big leap up from where you're at. You could be doing almost anything else.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Really? I don't know how much protein beetles provide. I'm sure it's not zero. I don't either. But fuel has 35 grams of protein and 27 essential vitamins and nutrients. That's way more. And minerals. It's a lot more than beetles.
Starting point is 00:37:10 I can just eat this in the morning. It's a complete meal basically ready to go. No beetles. Even if you don't drink this, I want to be so clear. shouldn't eat the Beatles. You shouldn't do that. Whatever you decide, we're going to, we're going to support you as our friend, but just please don't choose Beatles. Well, I guess I'm done. I'll just, I'll just, I'll just drink this.
Starting point is 00:37:28 I actually have been drinking these, and they're great. Okay. I feel like you just kind of blindsided us with something else that I'm really wrapped up. Yeah, I'm just going through a lot right now. Well, here's a limited time offer for you. Get Hewled today with an exclusive offer of 15% off with an online code, Yard15 at at Heel.com slash yard 15. And new customers only.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Thank you to Heel for partnering and sponsoring our show. and let's just get back to the tier list where no Beatles will be mentioned No Beatles on this episode At this moment, Mike We don't know that We shot the ad before the episode So we didn't even know that
Starting point is 00:38:00 I guess we don't know that yet You too So what's really funny about you too Is I didn't read Slimes list at all I wanted to go into my list Like pure And when I wrote mine I looked back at his list after
Starting point is 00:38:10 And I had also written exactly You two with quotes and an exclamation Yeah I wrote the exact same way Do we all know you too You too You too You're at the movies they say enjoy your movie. You too.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Let me come out. Let me come out and say it. I would say, I would say this is our first, low-key a good thing. How? You fucking stupid idiot. Everyone hates you. Lo-key-a-good thing. Because what is it mean? It means you cared a little about the other person. No, it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:38:37 You weren't listening to what they were saying! It's funny. It's a little charming even, because it's cute. It means you autopilot. It's like walking, it's like doing the little dance where you walk in front of the person, like, oh, sorry, I'm on the left. side, oops, sorry, now we're both on the right. That's on the list, by the way. But you're wrong, you're wrong. It's basically autopileting your interaction, getting the wrong filed slot machine one. Nirvana is realizing all of these conversations are on the same autopilited plane.
Starting point is 00:39:05 No, there's not. They are. The how we're yous and the what's up with you. No, attention is a spectrum. And if you have enough to be able to say, enjoy your movie and you go thanks, that means you had just enough allotted to this human being to say the right thing. When you say you too, it means you made a mistake that's embarrassing and you should feel embarrassed. You're just so wrong. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:39:28 You're so wrong. What if it's a woman? Because when you say you too, when you drop that little oops and then you both have that the little grin pops up at both of the corner of your mouths and you share a magical moment together. Disgusting.
Starting point is 00:39:43 It's real. Because what happens is you say you two and you're already walking away and you're like, oh my God. That's an interesting point because I was going to add that to me this cannot exist outside of day ruiner or no big deal because there is a built-in mechanic a jiggle mechanic if you will that when this happens you are you are almost always hearting ways. So it is difficult to remain in the awkwardness that is shared you are in a private awkwardness that I think is more manageable. Here's my argument for no big deal. We have a brief moment of beautiful. You're saying you smile. You're not smiling. You're leaving. What the fuck are you talking about. Derek. I remind everyone we all have our one. time. We have one time.
Starting point is 00:40:20 I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, no one does this. You don't go back and do this at the movies. It's busy. I'm sorry. I didn't realize I was in accord with social troglodytes.
Starting point is 00:40:33 Well, here's my argument for no big deal is because the person receiving it probably thinks it's funny. And like, yeah, you're right. But you don't turn around and then parts show up. And the Pebble of Lue music shows you hug each other. Can we not found the human experience between us? The other person thinks it's funny.
Starting point is 00:40:50 You just kind of suffer it. It's your own little personal hell. But even then... What if the person is... What if they clearly hate their job? Like, they say enjoy your movie from the standpoint of like, like, welcome to fucking Bucco's.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Can I offer you Bucky fries? Like, what if you go, they go like, enjoy your movie, you go, you too. And like, you have enthusiasm that's unmatched with their lack of enthusiasm. That's insane shit. I think if you make that mistake, you're making a bigger mistake than normal.
Starting point is 00:41:15 It's just because no normal person on the other end of the U2 hears it and then immediately goes wow they weren't even paying attention to me that's the feeling it can be the feeling I think it's only funny it's only funny that to me it's a reminder
Starting point is 00:41:32 it's a reminder that we are in PCs sometimes and that's a dark feeling it's like a when I say U2 I go wow autopilot took control of me and I didn't offer that person my attention and genuine personality enough attention I did not find that important enough to be thinking before I spoke, and I find that to be a little
Starting point is 00:41:53 embarrassing on my part. But I could, like, I should just say, have a great day or whatever. Enjoy the movie. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to eat all this popcorn before the previews. Bad ass like me. I will do that. I will do it. I think I argue for NBD. I think at the worst, it's, if the person having a bad day, that's just BL. Can you do? NBD. And that brings us right into the next category which is porn in your browser history. I'd like to include information here because it kind of depends what the porn is a little bit. Like if you look at it and it's like
Starting point is 00:42:26 you know at fucking XNXX.com and it's like slash like busty teacher gets cream pied by awesome fucking janitor. That's like whatever. But if it's like something crazy. What's crazy? I don't know. Because there's a spectrum here. What if it's Chinese gilts? Then oh man, it's kind of
Starting point is 00:42:45 funny. That's Loki a good thing. That's Loki a good thing. If I were to open Aiden's browser history and it was like all Chinese gilf porn, I'd be like, Aiden, you dog. That's what you're into, huh? This is like when Sanchoves
Starting point is 00:43:01 was scrolling TikTok on his stream and it was just a bunch of foot videos and he's like, he stopped. He's like, what? Fucking what? You think I'm embarrassed? This is my... Fuck you. No, fuck you. This This isn't bad for me, fuck you.
Starting point is 00:43:17 It's kind of like that. It can be. But I think no matter what, it's embarrassing, right? You open up your browser history or the auto-complete. And I don't even think it... It's like, they open up your boy's history. It's like Futurama hentai. So this happened...
Starting point is 00:43:32 This was actually a weird situation that happened. I was at my friend Eric's house, and I picked up his iPod touch to, like, look something up online. He's at his computer, and I'm sitting on his bed. And I open up the browser, and it's automatically porn. meaning he was using this to jerk himself off probably in the bed that I was saying. And potentially busting on the screen and then checking
Starting point is 00:43:50 if he takes a screenshot does the bust show because we were young and dumb and it doesn't. And it was funny because I opened it, immediately saw it, closed it right away, and I didn't tell him. I didn't want to embarrass him like that. But I did years later get on a podcast and say that this happened.
Starting point is 00:44:08 But you know what I mean? I always had it in my pocket like Eric beats off using his phone, which I didn't really do back then. Or his iPod Touch. Well, because for you, it had to turn the dial, the number had to,
Starting point is 00:44:18 you know, put the finger in the hole. With the same age. And then you had to rotate the number. How would you jack off with that? So I think, I think this one is just move off. What do you think about it? This screenshot,
Starting point is 00:44:31 thinking that the screenshot with something come on, it is so funny. What's only funny because it... Where did the giz go? I definitely jizz on the screen. I just, You're looking at it like clouds in the sky.
Starting point is 00:44:45 This is borderline. This is endless haunting for me. This could be endless haunting. Really? Yeah, because it's a stain on your character that populates first of the list to anyone who saw it forever. In my head, when someone I know sees me, the first thing they will think is Chinese grandma porn. Nick, like soccer. They will go in that order for the rest of my life.
Starting point is 00:45:09 That's how I have to believe that they're going to think. And that will endlessly haunt me. I think I remember what's crazy is the vividness And I can remember when this happened the first time the other way around still I can remember the title of the video that was in the browser that you saw on someone else's Yes, somebody else well please it was Brooke strips in kitchen Well who knows what she was doing Maybe she was making New York strips 12 ounces maybe it said bacon strips in kitchen and it was next to the P-Hub logo
Starting point is 00:45:40 Wow Can you do? I think I think should it be here? Should our cultural be so sexually ashamed? I mean, there are, I immediately thought of this
Starting point is 00:45:53 that there are circles in which porn in the browser history is like you and your weird goon buddies are high-fiving or some shit. So this is more for normal people where jerking off and watching porn is something you do alone and you don't really talk about.
Starting point is 00:46:07 Is a healthy amount of shame. Healthy amount of shame. I think that even if I'd like to believe, I've divested most of the shame that would be associated with this. I really haven't. And I, and I, even, even if my girlfriend saw me, like, I would still be ashamed. And she's the person who I share, like, the most intimate things of my life with. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:27 I'm good with endless haunting. Wow, the first one, Chris in the category. Let's go. Yep, classic. Classic. And that's why we use Control Shift. I don't actually know what this next one is. The grocery store linger.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Please, Aiden, if you could. The grocery store linger. is when you've walked into an aisle and there's a person standing sort of in your way or around you, but you also need to find something in that area or you think you do. And so you need to,
Starting point is 00:47:00 you're unable to go straight to the thing and just get it because you need to look and you also feel awkward because maybe you don't go to this grocery store very often or maybe not at all. And then this person is also there. They're taking their time. You have to just stand and kind of you start checking out the Tupperware. Yes. You start sizing it up. And kind of
Starting point is 00:47:18 pretend that you're busy with other things in the aisle like oh wow chili flakes. I'll definitely make something with that. Yes. And you sit in this eternal, it feels eternal until the person finally decides to leave the aisle and then you've reset the situation. Yes. This is this is low-key a good thing because really yeah because I think one time I I was talking to Sunsei, the melee player, and he was discussing that every day he wakes up and he makes his bed.
Starting point is 00:47:48 And I said, oh, I hate making the bed. It feels pointless. I'm just going to get back in the damn bed and mess it up again. Why would I make the bed? He's like, well, if the first thing you do in the morning when you wake up is do something you don't want to do, it becomes easier to do things you don't want to do
Starting point is 00:48:00 for the rest of the day. And that's an important thing. And I was like, that's the best argument I've heard. I think not getting exactly what you want right when you want it in the grocery store is a practice and mindfulness for you. What are you talking about? What a stretch you're making.
Starting point is 00:48:15 I want to get to the paper towels, but the chud man is in front of me and he's looking at cereal for quite a bit of time and I'm stuck in a little awkward. I'm doing the robot. I'm acting like to look at Tupperware. But you know what? This is good.
Starting point is 00:48:26 This is good. It's not awkward. This is good for me. I need to not get what I want all the time immediately. Go down. Guy who tripped twice. This is low key.
Starting point is 00:48:33 A good thing. Slow down. This is an opportunity. You're like LinkedIn posting right now. Tripping and like trying to reject. He is. He is LinkedIn posting. It's LinkedIn posting.
Starting point is 00:48:43 I think the problem with this, that here's why I don't think it's good. And because this is often coupled with a very strong fear that by doing the grocery store linger, you are putting an undue pressure on the other person that you don't think they deserve. Yeah, the linger is an answer
Starting point is 00:49:01 to not pressuring them. Yeah. You're trying to pretend that you weren't even interested in getting the chili plates. Because you don't want them to have to rush because you don't actually know where the thing is.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Here's the interesting aspect of this bitch is, okay, let's say someone has half of an entire poop hanging out the back of their jeans. So like they've left the bathroom and something that's gone terribly wrong, but they don't actually know, they don't know this. Are we in a grocery store still? Yeah, sure. We're in a grocery store. We're in the aisle that has like hockey and like soy sauce and top ramen. Yeah, yeah. It's like the fun aisle that's like, has a bunch of food like that.
Starting point is 00:49:35 And so they have half a log that's coming out the top of the back of their jeans. they come out of the bathroom. Oh, what? This is like, I don't know how this has happened. They don't know this is happening. Sure. You can smell,
Starting point is 00:49:44 you can smell like a tuniquetail. They don't notice it. And this is awkward, right? Because it's like, this person doesn't realize that they have poop coming out and everyone can see how awkward. But they are not experiencing the awkward
Starting point is 00:49:56 at all. They don't know what's happening, right? And there's no, there's no necessarily a moment where they're going to discover. This person that you're behind who you're lingering around might not ever really discover
Starting point is 00:50:06 that you're even lingering or waiting. This is happening only to you. So you are the one feeling the awkwardness. So I find it hard to say this would be a day ruiner because I feel like it would have to be that the person who is blocking you discovers they've been blocking you that creates an awkwardness for them that ruins their day.
Starting point is 00:50:26 But I feel like in this scenario, they kind of don't notice you. I think ultimately this is NBD. Even in the worst case scenario where someone notices you lingering, they go, oh, sorry. And then you get the thing you need, you exchange something, it's NBD.
Starting point is 00:50:39 but I think it is such a ubiquitous experience that it's important to file into this tier list and also remind each other sometimes that it's NBD. And you're the tiebreaker? Your tiebreaker. Show me NBD zipper? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:50:54 It's NBD, but it's worth talking about. Also, your analogy, I guess it does make sense because the person doesn't want to be in your way and they don't want the poop. I was going to say... If they noticed you, they'd probably just go, oh, my bad, and scoot over. But they don't notice you.
Starting point is 00:51:07 So your experience, you're the one lingering. Sure. And if when they do notice you, they usually will be like, oh, and it's good. And you go, yeah, sorry. Yeah. Okay. Pretty, pretty common one. Boner in class.
Starting point is 00:51:19 Boner in class. Loki, a good thing. What's the fuck up, bro. Well, it's good because you know your T is probably doing all right. Like, you're getting random boners. Like, you're doing a good. I'll say this. I haven't gotten to random boner in a very long time.
Starting point is 00:51:34 I think it's, I'm in my 30s. You don't really get those anymore. You should take a, like, a testosterone test. I get him in the morn. But like, the way we were getting him as teenagers, are you kidding me? In fucking in health class, just like, oops, it's boner time.
Starting point is 00:51:49 I didn't even want that right now. What am I going to do with this? Nothing. Besides do the walk or the tuck. It's another private awkwardness. It's only you in this area. It is, but okay, the thing is about having a boner in class,
Starting point is 00:52:03 I remember this so vividly. I was in class, I was in seventh grade, and it was Mr. Lagrange's health class. who ended up throwing a chair at a student. Did they die? I think he had BPD before we knew what that was. He did not die.
Starting point is 00:52:17 He missed James, the student. A whole chair. That's amazing. He flung it like fucking WWE. Anyway, it's, I'm wearing gym shorts, bro, and the bell rings. It's time to go.
Starting point is 00:52:32 The gym short bono. And I got the boner. Blueprint. And I remember I didn't tuck. I just used the book. my big hardcover health book and I just kind of moved around like a weird guy luckily no one was talking to me
Starting point is 00:52:45 and I didn't have it there was the conversation with a classmate while you have the boner is insane you know like someone's like hey I'm sorry to add like can I bum your notes from yesterday because I just like wasn't here and I'm just like rock uptuck
Starting point is 00:53:00 and I'm just like oh I'm like so much more gracious I'm like absolutely yeah let me get you my notes I'll say the bow if you're uptucked you're safe Everything's fine. Yeah, but you still have to be the guy with a boner talking to someone. I think you can fade that, though. Like, as long as it's not known that you have a boner
Starting point is 00:53:16 and you've already gotten into the tuck situation, but the thing about a tuck, Nick, is that you have to reach and grab your penis and tuck it back up. Yeah, you do. That's the hard part. And doing that on the low is very scary. You're reaching into your pants.
Starting point is 00:53:30 Yeah, you are. And you're hoping that no one sees you reach into your pants. Because then it's like, wait, what do you reach in there for? What do you get under your pants? Someone's, it's got a bone, right? That's a worst. case scenario. How do you think this compares to false accusation of gene fault
Starting point is 00:53:41 being a boner? That's fine. Yeah, you just, you flatten it out and you go no boner. What's up, pussy? I don't even get those. Yeah, you get to go, boop! And be like, nah. Nah, dude. Nah, you're wrong. In school, being like, I don't even fucking get those, dude. I don't even get boners.
Starting point is 00:53:58 I have a weird disease. My boners don't work. I'll die on the low key, a good thing, he'll. Dude, I think it's smooth off. I don't think it's endless haunting, unless someone, unless you get pointed and laughed at for having it, then it's truly the worst moment of your entire life. Maybe, I think that's a record, but I'm going no big deal because I, I think if you have technique, you simply are never discovered. Wait, I have to adjust this. I have to adjust this.
Starting point is 00:54:25 Because thinking about the other ones, I think the boner in class is something that people have to notice. I think we have to make it. You have a boner in class. Notice. Notice. Notice boner in class. Yeah, because like, for example, like, oh, then. If you fart in class and no one finds out, it's a very different thing than farting class and everyone hearing you. Right? So it's like, what is the boner in class? Is it private or is it? You have the boner in class and someone sees it and goes, do you have a boner in class? And then everyone else hears it and starts laughing or whatever. I mean, it's endless haunted. I think it has to, it's the worst of it. I think it's the worst of my life. I think it's the worst. I can modify this later to say, it's the worst. It's not. I think it's one time I was in school. I had a boner in class noticed in parentheses, noticed. Caught. Yeah, it is endless, yes. Yes. It's the worst thing you can ever ever happen. This one's fun.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Watching a movie with your parents and a sex scene comes on. I'm like, damn, mom, they're good at it. Damn, is that what it's like? Dude, sometimes movies are just so... It also obviously depends on the parent, but even with my like fucking cunt hound of a dad, like, It's just fucking annoying. You don't want to watch a sex scene with your parents.
Starting point is 00:55:41 It's so weird. It's the worst shit in the world, bro. I don't like it. I don't like it. I think it's because you have to sit in what you think they feel when they watch a sex scene. You have to, that imagination creeps onto you and you're like, I don't want that thought. Yeah. I don't want them thinking about me sexually and like what I think about sexually.
Starting point is 00:56:01 There's also this moment where especially if you're a younger person, you're like, do I look away? Like, should I look away from the awesome brain? that are bouncing up and down and this sex scene of these two characters that are fighting is coming to a head. Like it, and it's only made worse when your parents acknowledge it,
Starting point is 00:56:17 I would imagine. Oh God, there's soap on them? I mean, yuck. But I don't think this is an endless haunting situation. I think it's just one of those growing up things that happens. It's the worst shit in the world as it happens,
Starting point is 00:56:31 but then, you know, later on it's like whatever. That is fine. But it's a smooth-off situation. Oh, it's smooth-off situation. for sure. Really? I think it's to move off
Starting point is 00:56:42 because once again kind of like calling to hit your mom the unfunny video You're sitting in it. I've done this before. I feel like it just kind of ruined that moment for me. I think about a day ruiner.
Starting point is 00:56:51 I think it sucks a lot more than that. My temp check on this is with a lot of these I think they you evolve as you get older and they're less embarrassing because it's just fucking fine. I think this is one of the only ones
Starting point is 00:57:05 on the list that I actually like still have a very distinct discomfort as an adult when it happens. I'm like, I don't want to be here. I don't want to do this. Something that adds to the smooth-off category and maybe the ones alongside it in its cohort is the length of time that you have to sit inside of it. If it's just a flash of a titty in Austin Powers and you're like,
Starting point is 00:57:25 ha, what can you do? But if it's a sex scene where people are having sex and you have to sit there and are you thinking about and wait for it to end, I think so, yeah. Are you? You know what I'm thinking about? Next time I think about that movie, I'm thinking about that happening. I'm thinking about your parents.
Starting point is 00:57:40 No, I'm just thinking about God I had to watch that fucking sex scene with my parents. Yeah. You know? Yeah, it hangs on like that. And it does persist. That movie has a bit of a stain on. I'm being outnumbered.
Starting point is 00:57:49 I'd like the record to show. I believe it's the day ruiner, but I will accept my loss and we can place it into smooth off. That's a smooth off situation. No, next we have bad haircut with two teas. I misspelled it. What can you do?
Starting point is 00:57:59 It's low-key, a good thing. And the reason is, I, dude, I think it's good. One time I had a mustache for a week. and in my head it was a practice and feeling ugly that I thought I looked like shit with it and I was like you know what how does it feel to like not like how I look for a week
Starting point is 00:58:15 I guess that my situation that I'm trying to that I'm saying in this is you get a bad haircut and immediately it's a bad haircut you're still in the chair oh oh you've received you've received a bad haircut and you're with the person who cut wow wow that is awkward
Starting point is 00:58:32 situation how you handle it because you could be like they're like all right like how's you feel you like it? You want me to go up on the sides more? No, it's great. Oh, dude, giving it's all good and leaving. And you can tell, like, you're wearing your heart on your sleeve in that moment. No one's lying well there. Like, no one's going like, I love it.
Starting point is 00:58:48 They're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good. Maybe you could, um, no, never mind. You know what I mean? Yes. That is pretty bad. And not counting living with your haircut and how you feel about it, but more this moment. Kind of the definition of a day ruiner. I feel.
Starting point is 00:59:07 Yeah. It's kind of, yeah, inherently. Then you also are just like, fuck, man, I have hair fucking sucks now.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Yeah, you're walking around. How do I fix this? And it's like, your hair was cut. So there are really so many options. And it's also like, now I gotta like not go back to them.
Starting point is 00:59:22 Like, that's awkward. Yeah, you kind of make a little big of a big tip. They're like, hey, so do you want to just
Starting point is 00:59:27 schedule your next appointment ahead of time? I'm like, oh, I have so much coming up. There's a lot going on. I actually thought I'd grow
Starting point is 00:59:36 a rat tail so I'm good man I have your number though so so I'll hit you up yeah pretty bad and it's obviously been a while since I've had one but I remember the body remembers the body remembers up next is dead family member surprise this one is uh you had this in your list I also had this in my list
Starting point is 00:59:56 yeah this is uh yeah your mama suck my dick yeah my mom's dead um I have one of the I had one of these organically happened to me um I was on Xbox live actually I was on the map Karachi he was searching destroy and I was playing with friends but like online friends people I'd never met in real life and me and one of them are like playfully like talking
Starting point is 01:00:14 shit to each other and he's like saying like oh you're fucking you're gay or whatever and I was like well I fucked her mom and he didn't say any he didn't say like my mom's dad or anything he just kind of like stopped joking around with me and then his brother who was also in the game DMs me
Starting point is 01:00:31 on Xbox I have to open the message yo bro just so you know like our mom's dead. And I was like, oh my God. And I'm like just, I didn't say anything, but I was so nice to him the rest of the day. But I felt like I was like crushed. It was horrible. That story I think about every once in a while. Interesting. Which for me places it into endless haunting because it's the best case scenario when you say I fucked your mom is that everyone laughs at that person and you kind of win the the battle of wits. The worst case scenario is that their mom is dead. Yeah. And that you've unearthed that and you've taken advantage of it to hurt them. Yep. That is way worse than the upside and then
Starting point is 01:01:17 you're stuck with it. My version of this is, um, I think I've told this story before. I was, we were at a big party and my friend Tommy, we were doing this bit where we were like rednecks that were just, we did redneck voice all night and it was high school party. We were kind of early to this party and the girls there did not want to hang out with us. It was very awkward. But me and Tommy are just kind of fucking, we're just laughing and having a good time anyway. Trying to make the most of the situation we're not really wanted.
Starting point is 01:01:42 Anyway, we started talking about how much we love fucking drunk driving. We both didn't have a car. Like, we just fucking love drunk driving. Fucking driving as fast as we can, motherfucker. And then Haley goes, oh, you like drunk driving to Tommy. I was out of this one. And he goes, yeah, fucking drunk drive all the time.
Starting point is 01:01:58 Oh, you like drunk driving? That's funny. He's like, yeah, it's fucking funny. And it's fun. And she said, my brother died to a drunk driver crashing into him. And he's just immediate fold. He's immediately,
Starting point is 01:02:10 his eyes just went wide. He's, I'm so sorry. And I never forgot this moment. Tommy surely didn't ever forget this moment. And Haley also, I'm sure it was terrible for her, but I know that part of her was
Starting point is 01:02:28 kind of happy that she got to do this to punish the guys that were being annoying. Dude, one time, one time I was getting my hair cut by this guy. And I was trying to, like, tell him a cool story. I was like, and I was like, dude, I got this friend. He drives so crazy. He, on the freeway, you know what, those big, like, the tall cones that separate the, the, we have like freeways in my hometown that are like, they have cones that don't let you go into the carpooling at all.
Starting point is 01:02:54 If they're just, like, tall. And he was like, I have a friend who just runs them over and just goes into the carpool. And it's so crazy. And he goes, he gets the first time he was ever serious with me. He goes, someone did that and almost. killed my wife. And we had just started the haircut. And I was like,
Starting point is 01:03:11 yeah, he shouldn't have done that. And I'm like, so can I just get like, keep the top cut along? Yeah. So you know what? You guys have both made a compelling case. I think this is endless haunting. It's endless haunting.
Starting point is 01:03:29 It's endless haunting. I remember that, dude, the, I remember how many, like, inches away Tommy's knee was from Haley's knee sitting in two chairs next to each other
Starting point is 01:03:40 it's the most vivid memory I have in my life is Tommy just going I am so sorry You were even the guy who did it I wasn't even the guy who did it Yeah You also have
Starting point is 01:03:49 a more recent example of Master Baker Oh God So that's the other side of this I would say that the P2 version of this is Loki a good thing You have all the cards
Starting point is 01:04:00 on the planet But also there's P3 which is all the people surrounding you guys that are like listening I think you can see on everyone's faces they're like so it's so awkward for them yeah but that's sorry sorry you just got to deal with that
Starting point is 01:04:16 the situation we're talking about is it's an NBD for them you explain it but yeah it's Austin came up to me a Messerbaker and him and Extra Emily had this this thing they made it was an Eclare and it was based on this story that they made up and it was called the car crash Eclare and Little Johnny the lore is
Starting point is 01:04:33 that little Johnny made this a Claire for his mom who got into a car crash and he shoved it through the feeding tube because she was in the hospital from a car crash shoved it through and it healed her. Yeah. And she sprang back to life. And you're the judge. And I'm the judge.
Starting point is 01:04:45 And Cudy Cinderella is the judge who also has a mom that passed away and we're just sitting there. Like we just have fucking an RPG loaded under the table. And I said to Austin, I was like, oh, that's terrible. Please go on. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:01 Beating him to say more. Dude, oh my God. And so, I mean, it obviously depends on how far you are away from whatever traumatic thing happened. But my mom's been dead for half my life now. So when I get an opportunity like this, because it used to happen a lot more when you're younger and stuff, but now it's like I get this beautiful choice, this magical Sylvia Plath fig tree of all the things I can say and do.
Starting point is 01:05:26 I can make this person feel terrible. They're going to feel terrible, but I can make it fun. but no matter what they are going to say sorry to me and that's hilarious so the P2 side is a good thing I think endless haunting is good for this though endless haunting for sure
Starting point is 01:05:41 it's one of the worst things that you can do I think yeah saying hi to a stranger this is saying hi to a stranger you recognize as someone and then you realize immediately that they're not someone you recognize okay I can make a compelling case for this
Starting point is 01:05:53 I had I'm in Long Beach I have not lived in L.A. for very long. I'm hanging out with somebody. I'm walking down like the Long Beach pier, and I see a man on the opposite side of the pier walking towards me. And as I'm getting closer,
Starting point is 01:06:14 I'm so sure this is Snoop Dogg. Because it looks exactly like it. And you're in Long Beach. And I'm in Long Beach. And I'm in Long Beach. And I am literally, I'm uttering the words as I continue to get closer to this man. Snoop Dog.
Starting point is 01:06:34 And then I'm maybe like five feet away when I realize this isn't Snoop Dog. What have I done? This is like I'm... And you have this person's intention. And then I, nothing happens. And I walk away. But even the memory of that may be happening
Starting point is 01:06:52 rocks me to my core. Like the fact that I was so close to doing it and thinking about what would have happened in that social interaction if I had said it. Dude. This is, to me, this is smooth off. I actually did, I had a less embarrassing version of this
Starting point is 01:07:11 with Richard Lewis. Because I knew he worked in Atlanta and I saw a guy on a date kind of like a food court style thing and I literally, I was so confident it was Richard Lewis. I went up to him to introduce myself because it was like working in e-sports at the time.
Starting point is 01:07:29 And I knew he was working on E-League, whose set was in Atlanta, and it just wasn't Richard Lewis. And then I had to explain to them who Richard Lewis was. No, you didn't. No, they asked. Oh, God. Dude, getting asked. Oh, I'm not who that is.
Starting point is 01:07:43 Who did you think I was? Yeah, which is worse. Because I have to explain, like, I have to contextualize who Richard Lewis is to two normal people. I guess you got to be so pissed off in me. I think this is low-key a good thing. I'm not kidding. Dude, what the fuck? You said this for almost every single one.
Starting point is 01:07:58 How so? Because I've been in this situation actually a bunch of times where like I have like thought a stranger with someone. I stopped them or like I or like I said something to someone on accident in public and every single time it goes the exact same way. Where I'm like, like, I'm sorry, are you like blah blah blah? Or it's like, were you in something blah blah blah? And they're like, oh no. And it's just an opportunity to like make a joke. And it always, I like having a positive interaction with a stranger and this one has never been negative for me.
Starting point is 01:08:25 I'll say this. I think part of what makes this particular situation bad. is when you full all in, you don't say, are you someone? You go up and hug them from behind? Yeah, straight up. Like, you give him the McDonald's co-worker. It doesn't say like, like say hi to a stranger, racist. Because like that would be on, that'd be smooth off.
Starting point is 01:08:45 This happened to me, I think two weeks ago. It was like, you're sad. I basically, I'm walking by, I'm walking on the street. I always walk. And I thought I walked by someone that works at the coffee shop I always go to. And I, I waved and I. said what's up to this complete stranger, which again isn't the worst thing in the world, but I fucking, I wanted to die for a second because that guy was like, oh, maybe that guy was
Starting point is 01:09:10 just really, I think in general, this is NBD because the person receiving it usually doesn't care. In fact, they get kind of like surprise, fun attention unless they're insane. Loki, a good thing is a hard argument. Bro. I'm a, I'm a dame lover on this at the least. I actually, I hate when this happens. Wow, it's so unlike him, I feel like. Yeah, yeah. It's interesting to see you squirm and a... So none of us have agreed with each other.
Starting point is 01:09:37 What do we do? Whoops. How about we hold on to it later. Put it at the bottom. Yeah, we put it at the bottom and then we come around. Because usually we start to figure out where these tears end up feeling. So yeah, let's put it back in the pile.
Starting point is 01:09:51 This is forgetting someone's name. Okay. We talked about this one. I think this is NBD because you can always save the situation. You can ask like what's their name. Much like calling someone the wrong name, I think it really does depend
Starting point is 01:10:06 how many times you met them. As soon as you've passed the three, if you're on the third time or longer, you've entered a dangerous territory where it moves up this list. It's so easy to clutch though. You can just be like, I am the worst person on planet Earth.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Can you remind me your name again? I love hearing that. I love hearing that. Because it's like, oh, he cares enough to feel a little guilty and now he'll really remember. Unless he doesn't. Maybe I have too much baggage with this one.
Starting point is 01:10:34 Well, that's what's what's all about. The worst version of this, what I think is not fair to include is when you introduce yourself to someone that you've already met, which potentially should be on this list. I would consider, yeah, I guess it is pretty bad. Because that one is like, that is awkward.
Starting point is 01:10:48 I've done that. That one is awful. That's one of the worst. I mean, arguably, maybe we even change that one to say that. There's a lot of name ones. It escalates. It escalates. It escalates.
Starting point is 01:10:55 It escalates. It escalates. I'd be laughing at the next. one. Let's go to the next one. Which is surprise snot during laugh. This has never happened to me my life. What? Surprise snot? Like a booger, like you're like and it comes out of your nose. No, it's never
Starting point is 01:11:10 one. What are you talking about? I'm saying, that's never happened to me my life. What are you talking about? I'm swear. I swear. I swear. I'm not, I don't have pride. Have you seen this happen? Tell me why it's no key. I don't think. I've seen people snort or like I've seen something come out of their nose like they're drinking liquid and it comes out their nose. This happened on the podcast. I got it on the mic and then you told me about it. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:11:30 Wait. Real. But wait. Were you laughing? Oh. Yes, bitch. I, bro. I don't remember.
Starting point is 01:11:37 I don't remember. That means it's not that number. What I'm saying is this happens. Okay. I'm not saying it doesn't happen. It's the thing that happens. And it fucking sucks. But I think it's,
Starting point is 01:11:48 the question is, is it a day ruiner or an NBD? I will say if it's during like a date, it's kind of smooth off. Oh, yeah, a date. Yeah. So it's context dependent. but it's gonna land somewhere around there.
Starting point is 01:12:01 I think the worst case scenario, it's to move off, and it's actually very rare. And I don't know. I think even in the smooth off scenario, there's potential for it to like, it kind of to be endearing, like that you handle it so well.
Starting point is 01:12:12 You have a chance. Ultimately, it's like a bodily function that isn't on the tear of poop. So like, it's a lesser evil that you can expel. So if I like laugh so hard, snot comes out my nose on a date,
Starting point is 01:12:23 that's incredibly embarrassing. It ruins my day for sure. But then like a month later, it's like one of our funny stories. It could be. Yeah, it could be. Unless she thought your micro was a deal breaker. But if I diarrheaed, if I diarrheaed and then my micro came out,
Starting point is 01:12:38 if both of those happened on a first day, right? My micro comes out and that causes me to get so scared I diarrhea, then I don't care how long we stay together. That's never going to be funny to me. I've always been like, that was the worst day of my life. I can't even look at you. Wait, how can it not be funny? It's so funny.
Starting point is 01:12:57 funny right now. Yeah, I think you're right. I'm on the ground of the restaurant from the day. I'm fucking, there's poop all around me. My micros out. Yeah, my micros out. My pants come down, I go, my micro, oh no. I just start everywhere.
Starting point is 01:13:15 You make the sound that guys making CS go and you zeus them. Ah! I think this is, for me, this is a day-rooner. It's a day-rooner. I'm on NBD. I'll let you tie break here. I'm on NBD because I think when it happens, people laugh,
Starting point is 01:13:35 but it's like, again, bodily function, and sometimes it happens. I'm gonna say day ruiner. I have a personal disgust for myself. If someone's like, if someone's like, oh,
Starting point is 01:13:46 you have something in your teeth, that'll literally bother me the rest of the day. Really? Yeah, I'm like, I'm so embarrassed they saw that. Okay. So this is like worse than that. So it's going to ruin my day at least.
Starting point is 01:13:54 A bit of a problem. So you know that. 28 year old guy I adopted. Yeah. Yeah. But Brian. I don't know you could do it that old. But yeah, he's pretty much self-sufficient, but I did adopt him legally. But he's sleeping on the floor now because I don't really have anywhere for him to sleep. And
Starting point is 01:14:10 he's also really annoying. It was a big mistake in my life and I don't know what to do. Everyone wants to sleep on the floor like you do, by the way. Yeah, I thought he did. I didn't think when adopting a 28-year-old that maybe he would want a bed? No, he's a product manager. He does, he has his own life. I don't know why I this. It's so annoying. Why don't you just get him one?
Starting point is 01:14:30 Get him what? Well, you could get him a helix sleep mattress. He could take the sleep quiz and he can get a mattress that's perfectly made for him at 28 years old. Do you think that would help his situation? Yeah, I mean, you could get it shipped for free to your home. They have 20 unique mattresses, various designs of memory of foam and cooling features, and it has sleep zones to customize Brian's sleep.
Starting point is 01:14:48 Here's the thing. I'm afraid if I do something like this, he'll stop calling me dad. Why would giving him a bed? Make him stop calling you dad. I don't know. That's why I'm not doing a lot of things. And why is the 28-year-old man calling you? Because I adopted him.
Starting point is 01:15:03 He's my son now. Yeah, but... Ryan, if you're listening to this, because I know you do watch your father's podcast, go to helixleep.com slash the yard for 20% off-site ride. That's helixleep.com slash the yard for 20% off site wide.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Also stop eating all my shit. And stop... You can afford your own shit. Brian, you're a project manager yourself. I guess you should have a job. He does have a job. He does have a job. He does a really says a whole job.
Starting point is 01:15:25 He's a great guy, but he's my shit. Sleep.com slash a yard list. Go back to tier list. Okay. Stinky but don't know it. You can also find P2 because we'll do that next. My worst nightmare. Stinky but don't know it.
Starting point is 01:15:35 There's a P1 and P2 version of it. P1 is the guy who's stinky and you don't know it. Whoa. And you are, I guess, being told. Because you have to imagine the most realistic scenario here where you're stinky. You don't know it.
Starting point is 01:15:50 Somebody comes up to you near the end of the day. Or maybe when you get home and it's somebody that you're closer with and wants with. And they say, I'm sorry, but you're, you smell bad. You smell bad. Dude, getting the, getting that, I'm sorry, but your breath is really bad. Oh my. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:16:06 I don't, I can't stomach it. You immediately go through the file cabinet of the day's actions. And how many, and how many people smelled me and didn't say anything. You go back to the, I was, I was, I was, hey, breath exhaling contest, three, two, one. All these memories from like the, dude, lick my tongue. What does it feel like? Yeah. Okay, I think,
Starting point is 01:16:29 I think though, bear with me here. Loki, a good thing. Wow! I love what your heads are. Right? You guys are freaks. It's obviously,
Starting point is 01:16:39 it's obviously Loki a good thing. Freaks. And I came with you too. You're disgusting. You're disgusting. Derek, it's simple. If someone is willing to be brave enough to tell you that you stink,
Starting point is 01:16:52 you can change it and then that never happens again. If that person doesn't intervene, if you never learn, you might feel embarrassed now, but you fix it. If you never learn, you're always stinky. This is Loki a good thing. Oh, I see. I have to disagree with his logic. Because if you never learn, you never know what happened. You never feel awkward. Because we're in P1. No, but people are always, I mean, basically, it, it would happen, you would learn as P1 in a much worse way. Right. Basically, it's like, you need this problem to be solved. It gets solved. It's low key a good thing.
Starting point is 01:17:24 even if it's embarrassing at the moment. I don't think I can come around to that. Everyone wants to know that they're stinky. Whenever the moment that, yeah, everyone wants to know because the idea of not knowing leaves a bigger trail of people who form an opinion about them
Starting point is 01:17:37 for being stinky that they can't control or change or whatever, that is scarier. But I think the moment you find out you're stinky is awkward no matter how you benefit from it. If someone was like, yeah, you smell bad, I'm like, I do.
Starting point is 01:17:52 I think this is, because like this scenario is distinctly different than like, I just played basketball and someone's like, you smell sweaty. I'd be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm wearing basketball garb. Yeah, this is more the guy at the office.
Starting point is 01:18:06 The passive stink. Passive stink. I would wonder, because what would haunt me is that I didn't know I stink. So now no matter what I do, every day I'm going to think I do, even if I can't smell it.
Starting point is 01:18:16 I'm going to be like, do I smell to people right now? I heard, I saw this tweet that was like, if you kind of smell yourself, trust that a lot of people can smell you. That is true. I definitely believe that.
Starting point is 01:18:27 I mean, when I have like a really like, I don't know, I have like all fucking dumb issues, but like bad breath. I like, I can't even smell it. When someone has bad breath, I can't even look at them.
Starting point is 01:18:36 I'm like, just go away from me. It's like so bad for me. So when someone has bad breath, I have, it's so hard for me to deal with that I can't even muster the courage to tell them because of like
Starting point is 01:18:46 how much I think it would hurt me to hear. So. Yeah, same. So I don't tell them. But then I immediately think, what if I currently have bad breath and they're not telling me because of the same fear?
Starting point is 01:18:59 I'm gonna hurt you right now I've been in the situation with you what? Would you want me to tell you? Of course I would want it. And I would be gentle with you. I just drink coffee every day. I'd be gentle with you.
Starting point is 01:19:10 I'd make sure. Today you're good. Okay, so P1 so I guess I'm outnumbered here I think is Loki a good thing. Think about it. Because the thing is getting a boner in class,
Starting point is 01:19:22 you don't fucking learn a lesson from that. You learn like, I hate getting a boner. But learning that you're stinky leads to a better life and that's why it's Loki a good thing. That doesn't really apply to all these other ones. That's my argument. I think it's smooth. I think it's smooth.
Starting point is 01:19:36 I've left it. Have you left it? Have you left it? I'm saying I'm leaving. Leave it then decide on something. You're taking it. So you want Loki a good thing. No, wait, I'm leaving it. Me too. Smooth off. Oh my God. Move off.
Starting point is 01:19:50 Fine. Yeah. I guess some of us like to know our flaws and some of us are scared of them. Great next category. We can go P1. Oh yeah, yeah. P2, we'll do P2.
Starting point is 01:20:00 Sting. So we don't know it is the person They're delivering the news. Someone near you is really stinky. Yeah, someone near is really stinky. You may or may not decide to do something about this, but you now are at a crossroads. Bay Ruiner.
Starting point is 01:20:12 This is just a day ruiner. It's clear cut. I hate being around someone who smells bad. It's not fun. It's not fun, but you got to step up. But tomorrow, I'm not going to be like, God, that person yesterday smelled bad. hang on to it. Well, to be fair, and I agree with you guys, but just an exception maybe that proves
Starting point is 01:20:27 a rule, at Bigger Belk, I remember smelling someone's penis so strongly. To this day, I still think about it. Yeah. You'd smell someone's penis from outside of their pants, just nearby them. It was just, I'm at the bigger belk smelling somebody's shrek. And you can tell that it's not, it's not, it's a penis smell. No, it's not. It's penis. It could be your balls. It can be balls. I'll give you that. But it's that area and it's probably penis and it was at the pools area during pools and I was like that's crazy
Starting point is 01:20:59 anyway next one courage JD courage JD I think I mean I think I mean there's definitely just an awkward energy I think there's a category where he smoothly fits into
Starting point is 01:21:13 based on past categories can I make the and this is my first low key a good thing Loki, a good thing? That's my teammate. You meet the guy for one fucking Ciasterman that you rigged. He's electric, bro.
Starting point is 01:21:29 I love this guy. What can I say? What can I say? I think he's a nice guy. I fucking love him. I think he's a nice guy and stuff. But don't make me use my one time to put him and smooth off. And let's just put him in there normally.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Don't make you. What if I use my one time? What happens then? Then we're at RPS or something. Which I'm down to do. I'm going to let you guys decide this one. I'm undecided. because I want to say endless haunting
Starting point is 01:21:52 because it's funny and I also want to say low-key good thing because it's funny I think smooth off is the funniest one because we end up killing him on these
Starting point is 01:21:59 tier lists all the time here's why I I'll make a genuine case is we both we all have had a similar disdain for maybe this corporate e-sports world
Starting point is 01:22:12 the where my yeasies to work and pretend like I don't work in video games culture and I think I think I put courage there in my mind for a long time. Even like way before we even did that first tier list episode.
Starting point is 01:22:30 And as I have watched his stuff over the last few years and I've met him a couple times and then we played in the tournament too. It's all made me, this is just a great, this is just a lovely guy. Fly on the play, glazing. This guy is corporate esports, even if we like him. Thank you. He puts ads on Twitter videos. Thank you. I don't tell you.
Starting point is 01:22:49 But it's ads on a Twitter video. Is he not Loki a good thing? I wouldn't even know where the setting is. Can we not enjoy it? I wouldn't know where to find the stuff. He shows up with a bunch of bananas to the CS tournament and eats them at the desk. Push-ups on camera.
Starting point is 01:22:58 I feel you. I see all of it. And he's electric. Purple shell. He's electric. Marvel. Marvel's unite. What do you say?
Starting point is 01:23:05 And Marvel's great. Avengers assemble. Avengers assemble. Avengers assemble them. I think I'd like to. Oh, God, it's funny to put Loki a good thing. I think I'd like to blow my head smooth off. To quote a mortal technique
Starting point is 01:23:22 When you When the devil wants to dance with you You better say never Because a dance with the devil Might last you forever Courage J.D. Dance with the devil You can say all this shit Like oh he doesn't do this all you that
Starting point is 01:23:36 He could have said no To the PJs Calling you the PJ We would never do that bro We call it a PJ All the time now because of that. Ironically! And that's the Pepsi difference.
Starting point is 01:23:53 Basically everything Nick said, I agree with, how do you monetize a tweet? Move off. That's crazy. I don't know how. I'll say that. I don't know how to monetize a tweet. You're welcome to use your one time. Will you? No.
Starting point is 01:24:08 Let's go. Interesting. The next one is promposal denied. Is there some crazy what's going on? Proposal denied. So, if you ask a girl to a dance and you do it in the elaborate way where you like, you go to the grocery store and have someone write it on a cookie and you make a little sign or something. I mean, can we say, this is endless haunting. This is obviously endless haunting. It's either endless haunting or smooth off. I've never,
Starting point is 01:24:27 I've never had this happen. This, this has not happened to me, but even the idea of imagining my proposals being rejected is horrifying. Do you think it would still haunt you to this day? If you, if you asked to go to prom in front of the school. I think so, yeah. I think I think lesser things have haunted me. So yeah. You've gotten denied. Because it's this combination of vulnerability and effort. And grandiose. And it's so... You're also like, if you're making the sign, you're pretty sure she's saying yes.
Starting point is 01:24:59 Like, you're not making that sign if you're wondering if it's yes or no. I don't know. What if you make the sign and you're like, there's no other way but this hail Mary? Oh, like this has the best chance. Yeah, like it's a no unless I really nail this shit. You're asking out like head cheerleader and you're like at best like chess club number three or something. This one is just... Yeah, I think it's a good endless haunting.
Starting point is 01:25:21 I will say this, though. I didn't know when I had my girlfriend in high school, she got really mad at me because I didn't ask her to prom. And I was like, you're my girlfriend. We're going to, I don't need to ask you that. But you're apparently, if anyone's listening in high school, you have to ask.
Starting point is 01:25:37 You ask especially because she's your girlfriend. They don't write this shit down for us. Don't understand where that was explained to me. Yep. Can you do? I don't know how to open a rough eye right don't know how to fucking cast my girlfriend a problem learn to drop ship uh happy birthday wrong day these are painful for me i i when i say happy birthday to someone they're like oh it was yesterday
Starting point is 01:25:57 but thanks i'm like wow now every time i say it in the future you'll remember how i got it wrong i don't know i okay you you had this one and i saw it i just never had this happen you've never said it on the wrong day i don't think i've ever have you ever had someone be like oh by the way it was so and so his birthday yesterday yeah i don't care you don't care you don't care. I guess here's a thing I'm not much of a birthday guy as you fuckers know, but we made you a little birthday guy.
Starting point is 01:26:24 You made me a little birthday guy. And I and I tried to turn the tables. You successfully turned the tables. I successfully turned the tables. Yeah. Yeah, I did feel like you took control of when I told that waiter I had leukemia. I did, I definitely did turn the tables. He's not kidding. He's not made up. Just a moment with you.
Starting point is 01:26:42 He's not made up. We surprised him to take him up for his birthday. We surprised him with birthday dinner, a sweet gesture. he told the waiter he has leukemia. And the waiter believed him. So the next time y'all want to try some shit, be prepared for the hurricane. No, I paid the price. You're right.
Starting point is 01:26:57 I have no need to try some shit again. You can skip that next time. Anyway, so this doesn't really happen to me, but if someone's like, oh, someone's birthday was yesterday, I'm like, oh, that's cool. And you know what I do? If I like the person, happy belated. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:27:12 We're fucking adults. Kill yourself. On your birthday. I'm actually, I'm down for Loki a good thing on this one. I don't think. It's not Loki. It's not. It's where Zipper put it.
Starting point is 01:27:25 It's an NBD. Oh, who's the thing where you twirled around. It didn't get confused because the object permanence. MBD. Well, but you think it's not NBD because it hurts you. Yeah, I don't think it's MBD because I think it's like, I don't know. It's kind of like being like I'm larping as being someone who cares about you enough to know details about you,
Starting point is 01:27:42 but I'm also failing at that. And so it's almost worse than forgetting it entirely and not saying. anything? Yeah, I guess so. Because at least you don't know it's like, why I just don't know your birthday? It's hard to separate how I feel about birthdays from all of this because if someone was like, oh, it was your birthday yesterday? I'm like, yep, I don't care.
Starting point is 01:27:59 But that's my own personal bias. I put it in NBD. What can you do? What can you do? But you're no big deal? No big deal. All right, I lose. I lose. Silent Friendlies. This is a great one. This is one that I thought of. It's basically when you're playing friendlies with someone and there's
Starting point is 01:28:14 not been a single thing discussed. Like there was no, like, they're not saying, stop doing that. They're not saying you're being annoying. You're playing like an asshole. You just haven't set a word in like 15 friendlies and you can feel it. You can feel their energy. You know, that was more distinct.
Starting point is 01:28:31 And there was one of those words. You might think that, oh, me and Aden, they're playing a fun gate, his chic, my Falco. You know what, this session? Getting the better of me. Nope. It was not what's happening. It was actually my Falco, his peach.
Starting point is 01:28:44 Oh. So it was prison rules. and he was just he timed me out Oh my God It didn't go to time I it almost did And it was a friendly
Starting point is 01:28:57 And I said You just fundamentally Don't understand What friendlies are for This must have been a 2018 or something Dude don't you remember We had a whole conversation With you at the car about it
Starting point is 01:29:08 I think Well it was where Who was at work at BTS right Yeah it was at we We were playing in the kitchen Yes yes I do remember it was on the, yes. The small stint where the step was in the kitchen.
Starting point is 01:29:21 You guys thought the lights argument was annoying. Woo! Not that I didn't find it interesting. I had a lot to talk about. We all three did. But man, I learned, I mean, I took something away from that day. Yeah, you fucking better off. Why don't you time him?
Starting point is 01:29:37 No, it's, it's, it's, it's, of course, you almost find it. You would have preferred to have. Was it single digit seconds? Huh? Was it single? No, no, no. There was under a minute left. Under a minute, under a minute.
Starting point is 01:29:46 Not single digit, but double digit seconds and no minute. What can you do? What do we do? Anyway, this to me is slightly different. That's like more of an overt attempt to torture. Sure, sure. This is a, this is a, you're playing with someone, they're losing, they physically can't handle it. And they're like, they're steaming, but they also can't let it out.
Starting point is 01:30:04 Yeah. And you're sitting in it. Bear with me. Low key a good thing. Because either it means one of two things. One, it means that you're clobbering someone and you're making them kind of mad, which is fun. It's fucking fun. If I'm imagining it's at a tournament
Starting point is 01:30:19 or I'm imagining if it's one of my friends. It's super depends. Both of these situations, I like this. The real terrorism is when you managed to do this the other way around even if you're losing the games, which I did do at one point. I think on the other side of this, let's say I'm pissy and I start going silent.
Starting point is 01:30:38 I would argue that none of these awkwardness situations apply and it's a good thing that I'm getting clobbered in a way. in sort of like a self-improvement sort of way. So I think on both sides of this, this is loki a good thing. This is when the rubber meets the road, boys. I like it. So interesting.
Starting point is 01:30:59 This is the type of feeling I hate personally. Like, if I'm playing with someone and I'm bringing them dread by winning, I'm like, I don't want to be here anymore. I don't like, I just want to get up. Maybe I'm a piece of shit, but I like it. I can find a person that I would enjoy it more.
Starting point is 01:31:14 I think I think I'm only. If I'm playing Josh Man, and puff Falco and I'm winning games and he was silently mad, I'd be like, this is fucking awesome. Dash McLemore. It's awkward, in my opinion.
Starting point is 01:31:27 Like, I would put this no big deal. The only time that I feel worse and I would move it up tiers is actually when it's the reverse. Like, when I'm, if I've been in a bad mood and I'm losing, but I realize afterwards
Starting point is 01:31:41 that by through that I've made the other person uncomfortable, I actually put that and smooth off. But this is the opposite. Is the feeling you feel in that moment awkwardness? Yeah, shame, awkwardness, embarrassment. I feel like the more awkward person
Starting point is 01:31:57 in this whole thing is like the person who is like receiving the silence. Sure, yeah. That is the person who feels awkward. Here, like, if I, like, here's an example, I'll just say, I think I've talked about this a few times over the course of the show. There's a Dr. Mario player from, I think, New England
Starting point is 01:32:13 in Polika. and I was really frustrated that I was getting my ass beat on the setup at Shine ages ago and this is like, I think I was just so frustrated that it was losing so badly so I just started camping the shit out of it and these games, these weren't a three-man roto
Starting point is 01:32:33 and I'm losing and every time I play Polika on this setup the game takes like seven minutes but I'm down, you know, I'm losing the game so when the game finally ends And I felt like years later, I feel like bad and have like shame about that having it happened. You know what I mean? What's beautiful is in that situation,
Starting point is 01:32:53 the most awkward person is the third party on the setup who's not playing. Yeah, and is sitting between you guys. Just like, wow, this is weird. That's actually couple fighting, which is coming up. But that's kind of what I mean is like,
Starting point is 01:33:03 if I'm in the opposite scenario where like I'm the person up and winning and I'm making the other person frustrated and we're not saying anything, I don't really feel like, I just feel a little awkward. I don't feel that shamed or uncomfortable or embarrassed. Like, I would just put it into no big deal.
Starting point is 01:33:22 So if you're making them silent and they're pissy and seething, it's NBD for you. Yeah. But if I'm the one who's the, if I'm this one steaming, I actually feel way worse than I put that and smooth off. Well, I think this is good from the perspective of the person that makes it silent, right? Because all you were doing was playing the game
Starting point is 01:33:41 and that person just started being mad or whatever it is. I think NBD is close to Loki, a good thing. I mean, maybe it's a horse race. I mean, it's such a day ruiner. A day ruiner? Yes, from the perspective of the guy, I'm playing male. I'm just trying to play my game,
Starting point is 01:33:55 trying to get my cool convos, trying to learn something, one or a thing or two, have some fun with you, and you're not trying to have fun. You're mad. I'm like, this ruins. I'm like, I don't want to be doing this anymore. I would like to use my one time. Oh, he's using his one time.
Starting point is 01:34:08 Wow. And you like to put it where? I would like to put it on Loki a good thing. Yes. I have to respect the rules of the game. The rules of the game have been decided. The medallion is yours. It's also funny because it's like
Starting point is 01:34:20 past slime, melee playing slime. Yeah. Not really a silent friendlies. Not really the way he would handle it. No. No. But I've made people go silent. He'll get loud.
Starting point is 01:34:30 Okay, here's the thing. It's like with where I'm at in the last few years, I don't think I'd let it be silent anymore in the first place. I think I'd just say something to them. And I'm like, you having a rough time, buddy? Oh my God
Starting point is 01:34:42 I just break the ice You know Like I would never I feel like that's the other thing with this Is like I feel like I'm not in a stage of my life Where I'd let it get to this point anymore I think I And this is all to say
Starting point is 01:34:56 When I make the other person go silent I'm having a great time Even if they're my best friend Because we're playing fucking fighting games bro Well he uses one time But I god I feel so different I hate the feeling More than anything
Starting point is 01:35:10 It goes on the record and it'll go on the big declaration of independence. Next one. Homie yells at his mom. Yeah, you're at your friend's house when you're younger and like his mom comes in and says something and he's like unreasonably mean to his mom in front of you and you're just sitting there. Yeah. This didn't happen a lot,
Starting point is 01:35:27 but it did happen. This is an endless haunting for me because like I could never talk to my mom that way. And when I see someone mean to their mom, I'm like, oh my God, I'll never forget it. It is a very like, I'm not included. in this and the dynamic is flipped around. Bye Mrs. Applebee's. Thanks for having me over. Because if Mrs. Applebee's
Starting point is 01:35:46 really fucking mean to your friend, it's like parents, motherfuckers. Yeah, wow, your mom's a bitch. And you do. But. Which she's sweet and they're still like really mean. It's like... I think I'm smooth off on this because I don't, it doesn't stick with you because I'm not it doesn't, you're not the problem.
Starting point is 01:36:04 I think I have this like immediate horrific like reaction to it because I would never, I would never get away with this. My mom would kill me if I did that. So I can't even believe that I'm like witnessing or here for it. Yeah. Or, or the idea that like your mom thinks the same of me and that I would ever disrespect her in the way that you are disrespecting your mom right now. But I, it's like, I'm not going to lie awake at night about it. I'm with Aiden on this one. I think it, like a lot of the smooth, lawful ones, it burns really. It burns a lot. You're also trapped in a
Starting point is 01:36:38 situation. It's longer than it should be. It kind of fits the bill of all these ones. And I don't, I haven't really thought about this until you put it in the list. I'm fine with smooth off, but you just move courage JD up one. It's like the left. Yeah, right there. It's put it higher. Yeah, thank you. No, not too.
Starting point is 01:36:55 Not too. That's not on that. I'm good. Caught talking shit. Caught talking shit. Aiden, this was one of yours. It was a lot of words and I tried to condense it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Explain what you meant when you wrote it. Okay, what I felt
Starting point is 01:37:08 my soul in the in the version of this I actually wrote is the feeling of getting caught talking shit when you didn't actually is that I actually hate that feeling the most is like when someone is confronts you or says like like you said this or like I heard you say this but they've obviously gotten like a telephoned version of what happened and I'm like and then you have to like awkwardly defend yourself. A little niche. I think I think I think the situation should be Like, you talk shit about someone, they found out, and now you're in the situation where you're being confronted. Maybe I'm, okay, maybe I'm crazy.
Starting point is 01:37:46 You are. Maybe I'm fucking, and I'm fucking crazy sometimes. Because if it's that, then I'd put it in low-key, good thing. Okay, listen, what you just described in your niche situation where someone is mad at you because it's something they think you said and you didn't, I would love that situation because I get to be right. I get to be like, I didn't say that. Let's talk about it.
Starting point is 01:38:06 And I have this full, amazing confidence in that. like this is just not the truth. Now it's my job to convince you. It's actually kind of fun. Let me give you a scenario, Aiden. You're on Pita Lemonade Stan. And you're having a new guest this week. Oh my God, they're making now you see me four.
Starting point is 01:38:21 It's Jared Fogel. It's close. Jesse Eisenberg. And he's coming on the show at five. What's the most recent one? No, they made three. Is it only three? I think they're on four now.
Starting point is 01:38:31 Or the next one before, I think. And it's like, oh my God, Jesse Eisenberg. He's coming on Pilemonet, oh my God, it's so awesome. A celebrity? and he sits down and the first thing he says is so Aden I actually did see the clip of you saying that my wife looks like my mom
Starting point is 01:38:43 and you guys in the car you're sitting in a car bed actually you kept talking about how we look like siblings and we're married and that's really how I am a sex pest because of it I'm a sex pest for my mom so do you still think that?
Starting point is 01:38:59 Now Jesse now what are you feeling right now I want to put it in an endless on it because you're saying Loki a good day Jesse Eisenberg? Because I had that thought the other day because he's doing like a weird press junker where he's going on some shows that he went on Dr. Mike.
Starting point is 01:39:16 Put it in Dr. Mike. Put it in endless haunting. I was like maybe he'd come on the yard and I remembered what we said and I was like we could never talk to him ever. He can come on the yard and then we fucking talk about it. This is an essence of humanity bro.
Starting point is 01:39:29 I would say to him straight up dude she looks like your mom. Do you ever think that? Endless haunting. Endless haunting. Now it is Loki a good thing. I've been convinced. I'm endless haunting.
Starting point is 01:39:39 Wow. The tides of time have changed us all. Okay. I think this is, I'm realizing what the gap for me was. Because I generally try. I think about what Ken, do you remember Ken's advice was like never say
Starting point is 01:39:59 or send something that if it was just like displayed in public, you couldn't. You wouldn't want that. You wouldn't want that or you couldn't explain it. And I feel like, I like, I'm not saying I live by that principle purely, but I do think about it a lot. And I do let it dictate and guide a lot of actions. But I think I passively, like when we talk about Jesse Eisenberg or somebody who's like untouchable to me on the show. I'll never meet them.
Starting point is 01:40:25 It's like, we have fun with it because they're almost like a character, which is not a good way to look at things. And I think is like, is what it is. Hypocritical, but it is what it is. and as soon as you made me live that it goes in endless talking you know what's so funny as soon as you made me live it I got excited I saw that in your eyes and as the guy
Starting point is 01:40:46 Aiden Nick Ludwig who always seems to get into these situations and have to deal with them I guess I've gotten a taste for it I guess I've gotten a taste for this shit boy it would be so cruel to say that to him It wouldn't.
Starting point is 01:41:04 It was cruel to say it in the first place. I wouldn't try to make it cruel, but I would make, I don't think ignoring it and feeling so ashamed is a good thing. Do you think it was cruel to tell the waiter you had leukemia with no, I'm just kidding, I don't have leukemia within. We'll talk about it next week. Within 45 minutes. When 25% of the group is here, but in a way I do think I was justified.
Starting point is 01:41:28 Interesting. But I'll say this. And I can't wait to talk about that on the next episode of Dr. What if he? get a hard counter with that's so I'm so sorry like my mom has leukemia and it's really tough my mom died it's fine you would call you'd counter I would I wouldn't I would be like I'm saying what if you hit him where it hurt if I hit him where I heard and then you said I was just kidding I don't have that I would say I don't have that but my mom is dead I picked a bad I should have said like cousin or something
Starting point is 01:41:53 what you say dad like yeah I'm dead too I wouldn't say that I'm saying yeah I feel you and who cares about their cousin dying say I just that's true that's Okay, listen, listen. On the subject of Jesse Eisenberg, and let's say he comes on this show, I think ignoring it and just pretending it never happened is actually more disrespectful than being like, look, bro, we were sitting in this car bed and we said something that your wife looks like your mom. Like, I would just bring it up and I wouldn't try to hammer it into his head, but I'd allow him a chance to defend himself and call us assholes. I would do the same thing in a world where I was forced to have Jesse Eisenberg on my show. I actually think I've lost the privilege. And I don't.
Starting point is 01:42:32 because of a clip where we laid into him for his wife. I think I lose the privilege of Joe. I kind of do too. Mother wife. Well, now we're definitely not having him on. Pick hard, any card. Next one, next one, next one. All right.
Starting point is 01:42:45 Okay, next one. You are witness to a couple fighting. Okay, I actually have a question. I have a real life example. Is this, you're witnessing the couple fight. You're with, you're within ear shot. Oh. It's not, it's, you're not like within,
Starting point is 01:42:59 you're literally in the group. It's at the house. hang out. Okay. And there's a couple and they're fighting. Because the example that I can think of is Nick and his girlfriend were probably 15 feet away from what is maybe me and my girlfriend's biggest fight ever. Really? And I don't know if you guys heard it. Did you live? Because we closed the door. It was when we were living together still. Oh, so there was a layer of privacy. I remember this. So in that situation, you guys are in your room. Yeah, yeah. And that's kind of different. because you are awkward though you're it is but you're implying privacy I'm thinking of
Starting point is 01:43:36 this more as I have a good one I won't say any names but you're at a restaurant yep everyone's there and two people who are together start fighting in front of everyone cross the table maybe and uh yeah awkward it's it's now is it what kind of awkward is it Nick is it a day runer or is it a smooth off I think these situations once again smooth off being a link one that you kind of can't get out of and it lasts a little while kind of fucking sucks. I actually think it's day ruiner
Starting point is 01:44:05 because like it ruins the hangout but tomorrow I'm not like oh my God it's so I'm just like not like they're crazy that's all I do is I just go that couple's crazy that doesn't bother me for the rest of for any amount of time after.
Starting point is 01:44:17 Sure sure it's sort of also like maybe intriguing in a way that my homie yelling at his mom will never be like it's it's a window
Starting point is 01:44:30 into their relationship. I only feel ashamed about my homie doing that. But with this, it's like, I'm a little intrigued. If my homie yells at his mom, I'm like, I'm like, that's my mom. That's what I'm feeling. It's like, how would it feel to do that? That's horrible. But if it's like, if like my homie's fighting with his girlfriend, I'm not relating to that in public, I'm not like, I'm not putting myself in his shoes.
Starting point is 01:44:49 Sure, sure. I'm just, I'm outside of it and I'm like, you guys do your thing. Yeah. I don't want to be a part of this. That's the feeling. Yeah. Is the, hey, whoa, whoa, you want me to, I'll get dinner at the other table. If you want. Um, so it's, I think it depends on the smith. Yeah, I think you're right. I think even at its worst, it's not smooth off because you can always just kind of get away. In fact, it's probably better to get away because they need time to figure this out and they need space.
Starting point is 01:45:15 I think day runer is a good is where it belongs. Bad tattoo is the next one. It's basically a bad haircut. It's basically a bad haircut, but it's permanent, kind of, because you could cover it or remove it. I, depends. I mean if the if the tattoo is like a Swazica and says like I love Kanye West especially his new stuff then like that's awkward but like if it's like a bad tattoo
Starting point is 01:45:38 they manage to fit all of that into the swastika it's like it's like a cursive and that's like Philippians for it but if it's like one of my bad tattoos which I have plenty of then it's like it's more like you got a tattoo you had an idea of what it was in your head it is completed on your body they do the thing where they covered in soap and they slowly reveal it like on Instagram and it just looks like absolutely sucks. Aw.
Starting point is 01:45:59 I love it. I don't have that many tattoos, but this one in particular, and Brandon did this one, who did Nick Scarfield, I don't think it's bad at all. I just am very self-conscious about the lettering.
Starting point is 01:46:09 And it's something that's just in my head. And I remember after it happened, I was just, I kept thinking about it. And I was worried, like it kind of sucks. Like, it's not a haircut. And it sucks really bad.
Starting point is 01:46:22 The awkwardness, I think, is in the room. The moment you realize I might not love this, but you're looking, it the person who did it. And they're like, all right, we're done. And I'm like, we're done. Over? There's no more iterations. Do I have another session coming up? Yeah. And it's also like, if it is sick, you're like, look sick. Like you say it. Yeah. Yeah. More so than a haircut, right? They at the very least, you're going to take away that you're not in
Starting point is 01:46:46 love with it. Which is, yeah. And then they start saying stuff like, well, the ink will, you know. Yeah. They'll take your picture in a week when it heals because it's going to feel different, look different. It's smooth off. I think it's definitely, it's worse than a haircut because it can't change. If it changes, it's a lot of work and it sucks.
Starting point is 01:47:06 Yeah. For me, it's lower, but I think I'm a niche case where it's like, I just have so many tattoos. I don't care if they're good anymore. And that's cool.
Starting point is 01:47:12 Give me a bad tattoo. I'm like, fuck it. You changed my mind once. You told me something I never forgot, which is like, I was like,
Starting point is 01:47:18 your first tattoo should be special and you were actually like, I don't think it should be. I think it should just be what's happening in the moment and if it's shitty, it's cool. Like your first time having sex. And just, yeah, just, it's your first one.
Starting point is 01:47:28 It's just like, that's just the first time, and it's kind of whatever it is. And I like, I like that outlook a lot more than mine. It also makes your next one easier to get. And it also helps you get neck. Are we allowed to do this? I'm allowed to do what? Can we do this one without Ludwig? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:47:43 I get scared when he's not here. Yeah, I thought, what am I supposed to do if he's not here to talk about a mental versus? It's not like he's coming back. Well, let's just, why don't we go ahead and try? I think we could, I think if we, he literally got ripped in half like those guys on the spaceship when Battlebeast won in battle and ripped that guy in half and then his bones are everywhere. That's what happened to Ludwig. He's not
Starting point is 01:48:02 coming back. The visceral bloody combat. Yeah, the visceral bloody combat from the show from Invincible. But that's in the game Invincible Verses. There's a game? That's the game. That he does the adornings for it. Invincible versus is a brutal tournament quality superhero 3B3 tag I'm getting scared. I'm thinking about
Starting point is 01:48:17 Battlebeast is in it. Ludwig usually gets us through this part. I know it's fine. The 3v3 tag fighting game that lets players become a superhero in the bloody fight in the universe. Okay, it's actually, it's actually cool because you can be Cecil, and Cecil is a guy that's just from the government, and he's an old guy who's just from the government. But he fights, like, with all the weapons. It's actually very interesting, and Battlebeast is in it, which I didn't know until a little bit ago. Battlebeast is very cool.
Starting point is 01:48:42 He's a beast who needs battle. Wait, there's 18 playable guys in it. Yeah, I'm really only talking about Battle Beasts in Cece. You keep talking about one guy. There's 18 of them. Yeah, there's like Omni Man and like a couple of Biltramites and all kinds of shit. But Battle Beast and Cecil-Lorraine. You can give the standard edition of Invisible Verses for 4999 with pre-order bonus color variant costumes. Ludwig was here. Also, Seth Rogen voices one of the guys in the show. The year one past all players who pre-ordered the deluxe edition.
Starting point is 01:49:09 Otherwise, players will be able to purchase it separately for 1999. I mean, Luddwig does this all the time. And he laughs like this. I hope there's not 18 characters forever, though. There won't be. They'll be more. They're going to keep releasing characters. But once again, I'd like us to all focus mostly on Battlebeast.
Starting point is 01:49:24 I guess that's good. well thanks for watching the yard and Imintel versus is out now on PlayStation Xbox and PC so go enjoy and enjoy your life while you're at it as well he needs battle this is goodbye into the same
Starting point is 01:49:36 direction walk classic this might have been the first awkward moment like well Jebediah I'll be going to my village wherever you live sounds awesome I'll see you later and we're going the same direction
Starting point is 01:49:51 oh you live by the river oh and then one person starts to speed up Yep. Dude, that's the worst. How's your sister wife? It's, it's tough because it's like, it's not that big of a deal.
Starting point is 01:50:05 It's no big deal. But you're caught in this. It's a strong feeling in the moment. Maybe, yeah, it's really strong in the moment. I almost want to say day ruiner because it's like this awkward, you have to live in it for so long. And,
Starting point is 01:50:20 but it's also very inconsequential. And then you have to say goodbye again, which feels like such cock, behavior. I think it's no big deal. Even though it lasts like five minutes. What then is your, it's not even five minutes. It's less than a minute. Because you're going to your car or something. Yeah, in my head I was walking to a parking garage. It's just like maybe. Oh, that's move off.
Starting point is 01:50:38 When you have to fill the conversation for that second minute long walk. I, okay. Let me ask you something then. If you think it's NBD, how do you handle it? Okay, so. Okay, bro, hey, bring it in. You know, great hang, great hang. All right, I'll see you later. All right, bye. They walk to the crosswalk. I'm like, going to the crosswalk too.
Starting point is 01:50:58 And so I kind of follow, I'm going to actually make it worse. They get to the crosswalk. I like go on my phone for a little bit. And I'm like, oh, I'm that way too. And then I meet them at the crosswalk like 10 seconds later.
Starting point is 01:51:07 I go, I go, I'm also this way. Just like a joke. You know, some sort of like funny. And they're like, oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:51:14 And I'm like, what do you do today? You know, something to break the ice. You try to. I try to make fun at the fact that we're in the walk the same direction moment. we're sharing that and I try to make the most of it.
Starting point is 01:51:26 I think it's like, it's so easy to manage and turn into something kind of funny. Maybe. Okay. I think, I think the maturity maybe is, is knowing that this can happen
Starting point is 01:51:37 and beating it out. Like, just saying, saying like, which way are you going? And then you don't even have to interact with the situation at all. This is a strategy. You say which way are you going? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:47 And they say, oh, I'm going that way too. You continue talking. And then you continue talking. I have to believe we already failed that part, right? because we're in an awkward moment to your list. So it's like we failed that.
Starting point is 01:51:55 We started walking and happened to be the same direction. I might say, I thought you might get scared. So I figure I walk you. That's great. Figure I walk you your car. That's good.
Starting point is 01:52:03 I think I'm been convinced. I've been convinced. I think this is NBD with proper, with proper care and love into the situation. Sex overheard. Sex overheard. This is,
Starting point is 01:52:16 I think we should, a lot of P1, P2, nonsense than this. I think we should say you are in a small group people at your home hanging out and your roommate is having sex and everyone can hear it. This is not you having sex and other people can hear. The only time this has ever happened, it was more funny than anything. It was we were all at Braxton's house. Dude, that's a name for
Starting point is 01:52:39 you. I will never lose. And it was so funny because this guy, Justin and this girl were there and they've been wanting to hook up and it was just like kind of an excuse. It's all of just hang out. We were playing the UFC video game. game. What was that slam? What that game? And Justin, he just has a beer in his hand and Callie's right next to him and he's like, oh, I'm tired. You want to go to bed? And she's like, yep. And they went like three doors down and started banging. Awesome. And we're all just playing UFC listening them bang. And it was kind of hilarious. It was funny. But that's, I think that's an anomaly of a situation. It's more of sex overheard when you kind of didn't expect to hear it.
Starting point is 01:53:19 I actually want to split this one in my head. We don't have to. the chart into hearing like your roommate or somebody you know have sex versus your parents. Oh my God. Well, sure. That's a separate category. That's different. Very traumatic. Well, the parents are like your roommates.
Starting point is 01:53:38 If I ever heard, if I ever heard that endless haunting. Do you guys are walking on your parents? No. No, I never walked in, but I definitely heard it. My parents were kind of divorced off of it. You've walked in? Yes. Easy endless haunting. Dude, it was the worst shit in the world. Dude, shut the fuck.
Starting point is 01:53:54 I know. I know it, but I'm not telling you. Do you please tell me? No, I'm not telling you. It's good data. It's not good data. I want to know how fucking older people do it. Like, are they just miss?
Starting point is 01:54:04 What are you being older? She was younger than me than I am now. Holy shit. Yeah, I'm old. That's great. Fuck you. Fuck you. Fuck you.
Starting point is 01:54:13 Okay. How will I say a collection? You say if it was one of the mess or no. No, I don't want to do this. Mish yes or no. Stop, stop it. See? But that's how you need.
Starting point is 01:54:23 know if it's the parents, it's endless haunting. Yes, parents are the fucking worse. Yes. But that's like... Side shots? I'm trying to read him with a mentalist. Dude, he covered his eyes and that's a tell. I'm red John and I kill you.
Starting point is 01:54:35 Okay. I actually think it's... In a roommate context, I actually think this is no big deal. Like, it's just... It's just funny. It's just funny. Yeah, we all just fuck each other and the sucker come out for penises all the time.
Starting point is 01:54:49 I'm cool with no big deal as well. Yes, I just... I heard your girlfriend's squirt. I liked it. That's how you are. But if it's... That's how you are. If it's parents, it's endless haunting.
Starting point is 01:55:00 Yeah, sex over her, no big deal. I'm fine with it. I think it's fine. Okay, the next one is new discord discovered. Let me explain. This is when you make a new discord to avoid one single person
Starting point is 01:55:10 and then they find out it exists. That's that feeling we're looking for right there. That suck through your teeth. But, but, and I, and I would say I know this feeling so well that I solved it forever. You know what I found, you know what I realized is when we all played CSGO on my birthday or CS on my birthday, Ludwig wasn't in the Aman Gamen Center. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:30 To this day, he has not been in the Aymond Gaman Center. It surprised me, but now he is. Wow. Well, we are not in the world where we have fixed the problem. We are in the world where the problem has just happened. By the way, for anyone does know, Amon foresaw all of this like a prophet and he created the Aman Gaman Center, which is a discord with no text chat functionality at all. And it's just a bunch of pepos with torches that says no chat. And Aiden is the one admin and it's only voice channels.
Starting point is 01:55:58 And it's voice channels that have different call caps on the number of people. He basically recreated mumble. Yeah. And I will say it has withstood empires. Yeah. It still holds up. But the feeling of new, this is pretty bad. This is pretty bad.
Starting point is 01:56:20 This is pretty bad. haunting, I think, bro. This might even go, this might even be Amazon and honestly. I'm down. I'm down for sure. And you know who was a big perpetrator of this? A. Z. They in fact had so many,
Starting point is 01:56:32 they had so many layers of sneak dis chats they called them. This is the culture that Nick Yingling came from. That's why such a fucking terrorist. And it's like, and honestly, it's like, I try, my idea I had when I realized that this was a thing way back when
Starting point is 01:56:47 was to create the server called the Yard, which is where it was a holy server. where we try to be as strict as possible. It's like everyone has to be verified homie. Yeah, yeah. At some level. And it's like if they're not verified homie some level, it's like,
Starting point is 01:57:00 and like there's a threshold for that. It's like, like, yeah, I'm gonna add this guy that's not all people know in here, but I know, I've known it since high school. Dude, I had to fight for,
Starting point is 01:57:06 I had to fight for J-ZU in like 2018. He told me no. J-ZU came in two years later. Oh. Yeah. Didn't know him very well. And I was like, I promise he's cool.
Starting point is 01:57:18 And Nick was like, it was funny because I had no context to what this server was. but you added me to it after, like shortly after I moved in. And that was the talk. And you were like, this is your invite. And I was like, and I was so confused. I was like, oh, this is before the yard podcast, before even the idea of the yard podcast.
Starting point is 01:57:37 This was just when the yard was the idea of the yard where we hang out. And I was an eight year old server man out. Yeah, it was my first, I was my first one of my first servers I ever joined. And I was like, look, if we, if we run this shit, this Navy chip like this, it'll last of time. And honestly, well, I learned,
Starting point is 01:57:53 you can't really win. No. You're always going to have fallouts with friends. You're always going to have... It just happens.
Starting point is 01:57:58 I had an idea recently that I would put a post in that server that says, at everyone, and then also at here. And it would say, if you read this,
Starting point is 01:58:09 you have to reply with an emoji. If you do not do so in the next 31 days, you will be removed from this server. As a cleaning out of inactives.
Starting point is 01:58:18 Interesting. I've had this idea recently. I think everyone would kind of revamp the energy Everyone would do it Because maybe someone's like I haven't used it in a while
Starting point is 01:58:26 Maybe I'll come back Sure You know what I mean? You know what I mean? I play. I silently remove people sometimes I will say this is The new Discord discovered Is it terrible thing
Starting point is 01:58:34 But if you're really If you're really It shouldn't be a thing You shouldn't be You should develop systems To where this doesn't work Or don't hang out with people You don't like
Starting point is 01:58:43 Yeah I mean Really you should just like When the homie gets weird You should have a talk with them For our advice show It's probably one of the most common questions. It's really cool. It's like this guy's a dick and he's in our discord.
Starting point is 01:58:54 And just make the aiming game. But sometimes sometimes it is unavoidable. Like sometimes it's like the homie's girlfriend. Yeah. How can you do? And whatever they're doing the call, it's like the vibe's terrible and it's like you can't sell the homie's girlfriend. You can't be in the discord. You can't be in the discord. Fuck, bro. So you make a new discord that doesn't have the homie
Starting point is 01:59:12 in it and you make an excuse that's like, we play a different game in this one. And then he finds out. And then we're endlessly And it's unethlessly haunted. And that brings us into another category that's called card declined. Card declined. I don't know. This is, hey, hey, first date.
Starting point is 01:59:28 Hey, let me pay. Oh. Oh, my God. Thank you so much. Card comes back. I'm sorry, sir. I don't know. I ran it twice.
Starting point is 01:59:37 And I'm like, did you try? You're making it worse. Did you try swiping and not inserting? Because sometimes, yeah, I did both. Maybe. Okay. Oh, okay. I'm really, this is so, I'm so, I don't have another card.
Starting point is 01:59:48 Could you? All of MOU. Maybe. Maybe. Hear me out. Oh my God. I know what you're going to say. I just think it's no big deal, man.
Starting point is 01:59:58 It's no big deal. It's just no big deal. Because not one time, this is the reason, I've thought about this. Not one time have I been on the other side of the interaction where the other person's card is declining. And I've thought it was embarrassing. Because I feel like the implication is that the person is ashamed that they don't have enough money for the transaction. That's what the embarrassment is like implied upon or maybe the just the
Starting point is 02:00:23 inconvenience of it being declined at all. But I've never felt like this is a big deal from the other side. And because of that, I don't think I've ever felt bad when this happens to me. It's just like cards are just finicky and dumb sometimes and they decline. When you have to pull out your damn iPhone, open the app for your bank and transfer like $60 into your checking account. Yeah. I also disagree. I don't think cards are finicky sometimes. I think that we've developed technology to where it, when it declines, it means it's declined. Unless you're buying like a jacket in France, your credit card works. Yeah. Unless you just don't have any funds in the checking account. There's, guys. All these things are finicky. He's like, no, we actually have the new machine.
Starting point is 02:01:07 It's really good. Guys, sometimes they just don't randomly work. Wait, we actually have the machine. It's square and it says this shit doesn't ever fuck up, L-O-L.L. This is smooth off. No, dude, smooth off. It sucks. It's important. It's important. embarrassing. It's incredibly embarrassing. What are you talking about? Because you're like, oh, I'm broke. I have no value for you. I'm broke. Like, also, I volunteered this.
Starting point is 02:01:28 Because when the card declines, it means you're paying for someone else's shit. Or you're paying separately for something and you have to ask them, hey, can you get mine too? Commenters dab me up if you think it's finicky sometimes. Dude, I actually have an endless haunting one of these where in my current relationship, but in like the very
Starting point is 02:01:44 beginning, we went on a trip. And when we got there, we decided that we would rent a car and I didn't have enough money to rent the car like in my checking account. So I went to use my car and it declined and I was so embarrassed that she had to pay for the car. And we, I think about that all the time. Like I was like, oh my God, I'm such a chud. Yeah. I actually kind of got my bread right after that. I was like, I can't have that happen again. And she was even like, I remember she was even like worried I was bad with money. She told me that. Oh my God, bro. She was like, why don't you have enough money to rent a car on a trip?
Starting point is 02:02:18 I think I think I'll change this later on to card declined on date because I do agree with Aiden if it's just whatever it's declined what can you do? I think smooth off, yes. Thank you. You can't, they're not finicky, Aden.
Starting point is 02:02:34 They work. Fart in public, but it's smelly and quiet. So it's a silent but deadly. I don't know why this was even submitted. I think this is low-key a good thing. In fact, it's high-key a good thing. Fuck the public. Fuck cops, too. You're on a, okay, you're on an airplane, you're on an airplane.
Starting point is 02:02:51 Fuck, the airplane. And you are the aisle seat. And next to you is the window seat and the middle seat. And you let out like an eggy. It's always eggy on the plane. You let out like an eggy fart, okay? And you go, okay, this is okay because like there's a person as another person, right? So like the third person will expect it's the middle person.
Starting point is 02:03:12 The middle person could have reasonable doubt that it'll be. But then the moment you do it, like the middle guy gets up. leaves. And the smell, the eggy smell, it takes a while to permeate your jeans and like get, because first it like the way I imagine it, no, don't get, don't hide. Okay. Don't hide. The way I imagine it, activated a memory. I'm moving this up the tear list. The way I imagine it is that the smell comes up your t-shirt. Like the scarab and the mummy? At first, it first hits, it first hits your nostrils and then it goes into the room. This process can take up to a minute. And, and so when the person stands up and leaves, now you're like, oh my God, I've already done it. But this person is going to
Starting point is 02:03:47 know it's me and we're not going to have a conversation about it. So you just sit in the awkward filth. Dude, this is the worst part is when that part of when it hits your nose and you know that the heavy egg that you've dropped into the air is making its way to the other people. It hasn't
Starting point is 02:04:04 hit them yet, but you know it. You know how bad it is. And I have a very specific memory. Your heartbeat is racing. Dude, I was at the fucking event for the season one premiere of the arcane finale. and Riot had like built out this like incredible live world that like represented the game and I was with I will believe there it is
Starting point is 02:04:28 I was with and I was standing there and I was like I really have to fart right now and I let one out and it was horrid dude and then with the baddest and two X and I did the thing where the only thing I could think I could do, which is I shifted like, I started walking in a direction to try and get the group to move
Starting point is 02:04:56 so that they wouldn't get hit, but then like 10 seconds later as, oh my God, what does that smell? But I was never accused. Well, because you keep a low profile. You start doing things like you fart and you start doing
Starting point is 02:05:14 things like starting a conversation because like what talking person would fart? What talking person? Surely if they did that, they would be grunting or something. So I would just start a conversation, and then once they smell it, I'm like, oh, would you smell something? I'm like, oh my God. Oh, wait, I mean, we smell like two. It's disgusting.
Starting point is 02:05:30 That's a disgusting thing. If we assume the fart is the worst it can be, this is smooth off at least. Will you allow me space to speak? Here is what I have to say. I don't think it's Loki a good thing. I am a human being. I also feel shame if I do something like this to strangers on a plane. However, I think it's NBD.
Starting point is 02:05:51 The guy who goes, try it. Try it. I'm supposed to believe what, I'm supposed to like trust who the answer. I don't know, window seat. I go, try it. Hey, you wake them up. Hey, so, no, three hours left on the flight. Just try it.
Starting point is 02:06:04 I wake him up excited. Try it. Try it. Try it. Supper has been served early. Try, try. Try your supper. Try your supper.
Starting point is 02:06:14 Put your tray table down. Please try. Try me. Okay, okay. We all agree on that one. Okay, listen. Not a big deal. I will say...
Starting point is 02:06:26 You say it was to move off? I will say it... I am a human being and if I'm in a window seat and there's strangers here, I've tried really hard not to fucking do this. But it mostly comes out of if I do fart, it'll probably be loud
Starting point is 02:06:40 and then I'm immediately solid snake enemies, Metal Gear, and they all look at me and I'm like, yeah, I don't know what the fuck to do. It just caught. But, Wait, wait, when I'm in this situation, it's because I could no longer hold it Something has gone wrong with my tummy and I have to let out I have to like literally like you know how it goes
Starting point is 02:06:59 You're trying to make it silent. Yeah, and you're like oh fuck It's weird that a guy it's weird that a guy who can control the smell Oh, I mean we'll ever be in the situation It doesn't work in the sky Oh my god, it doesn't this is true It doesn't work in this guy Why would it work in the sky? Think about it for two seconds.
Starting point is 02:07:20 I'm a land-based mammal. Anyway, you're in the sky, and you're trying to make it, and you, and you let it go. And what I feel is, it's kind of like how when Oppenheimer finished the project.
Starting point is 02:07:33 You just feel like this great shame. Like, I've changed the world, and it's out of my hands forever. And you wait for it. And then the guy next to you is like, you've done the opposite of air conditioning. You've done air punishing. It's funny, because the guy,
Starting point is 02:07:45 the person next to you is usually like, like they don't start like throwing up or something the classic when like someone someone does this to you and they're talking to you and you kind of go oh wow yes bro like you're thinking but you're really just trying to get like oxygen doesn't smell like their asshole like yeah dude do 100% but i will say this i don't feel i don't feel any sort of like of like of this
Starting point is 02:08:09 the socially awkward like pain i just feel i just feel sad i just feel sad that it had to come to this it's like i'm looking at a graveyard and I'm like so many have fallen. Anyway, finish it, finish me off. Move off. Finish me off. All right, we're putting that in the smooth off category. Fucked up the handshake, I would even extend this to be fucking up a dab. Well, if you look. Oh, there's another one.
Starting point is 02:08:32 So there's two different ones. Wow. This was, this was Aden's idea and you thought they were distinct enough to have separate ones. How do you fuck up a handshake? Let's hear it. Well, sometimes, you know, a fucking up a handshake, more basic right but you sometimes you land in the pocket wrong and then or the other person chooses to grip in a weird way you give them the and you aren't really sure like whose fault it is almost but we both know it was a terrible handshake and it was it was uncomfortable uh it's a little awkward and then we just have to like move on
Starting point is 02:09:04 and kind of pretend like it didn't happen especially if you're like meeting multiple people at once this is for me this is in between day runer and no big deal me too but i'm not sure where it lands particularly because usually when you're doing something like this it's like you're already talking there's a lot of people there's a lot of conversation it gets moved past actually that's why I think it should end up in no big deal because usually in the handshake situation you're more interested in speaking quickly right away you you mow over this you pave over it also can be fixed like if you go like this you can kind of like oh yeah you can adjust it's adjustable the adapt is not adjustable we'll get there we'll get there yes I think that's the distinction train wreck so I
Starting point is 02:09:44 I would go with no big deal. I don't know with that. No big deal. So then let's let's go go. Now dude fucked up the dapp. Fucked up the dapp. This is a, this is maybe smooth off. Oh, I don't know. So the difference here is that the dapp is a, it's an event. It's something that, it's something that you do. I don't want to, I don't want to make it about this. But can I ask the, who am I dapping with? Is it a white man? Is it a black man? It matters a lot. Because if I am a beautiful black man and he goes, what's up? And I go, what's up? And I go, what's up? up and we go for the DAP and I'm like oh oh sorry we're trying to are you doing the hug I straight up want to kill myself
Starting point is 02:10:20 I will never ever ever forget it ever ever I ever I talked about it on this show I fucked up the Dap with my black barber so bad that I still think about it now like I live I live with that event in my head forever I'm not kidding we need to we need we need fucked up the Dap
Starting point is 02:10:40 and then in parentheses white slash black and then we need fucked up the DAP white slash white, which to me is far lower. To me, to me, you fuck up the Dap with the white homie and you're like, you're like, oh my God, we're so silly. Wow. You want to try again? You're going to you. Hello, my baby. Hello, my dog. We're so goofy. Surely we both need the practice. Let's go again. I, I, I filled it with my barber and I was like, I'm not, I'm not worth anything. What if what is like fucked up the Dap white, white is loki a good thing? we get to grind it.
Starting point is 02:11:16 I like that. I like that. And fucked up the Dap, white, black is endless haunting. S plus tier. We'll add that after, zipper,
Starting point is 02:11:25 make a note. We're gonna, we're gonna break those out in the different tiers. But endless haunting for the one that is, yeah. Yeah,
Starting point is 02:11:31 that's unanimous. And up next, we got a really strong category. Who, elbow touches boob. So this is like, it would be funny to fill out this entire chart
Starting point is 02:11:41 with just racial variations of fucking, the DAP, like it's just 20 things. It's like, Silent fart, white, black. Fucking up the Dap. Fucking up the Dap. Um, okay.
Starting point is 02:11:54 Elbow touches boob. I saw this on Nick's list and I was like, how did I forget? How could we possibly forget? Dude, elbow, elbow touches boob is such a false flag. What? He's gonna do the thing again.
Starting point is 02:12:06 Oh my. It's such a fucking bushed 9-11 of, of embarrassing moments. because in school, what I remember, I think if it happens as an adult, if we're two normal people and I'm like moving in space
Starting point is 02:12:21 and that accidentally happens, I'm just like, oh, I'm so sorry. And like, and the other person's like, it's all good. But do you remember if this, like something even remotely like this happened in school? And then the girl would be like, oh my God, you touched my boob.
Starting point is 02:12:34 Yeah, this has never happened to me. I would kill myself immediately. It's this allowed, like you're immediately called out. You're labeled for it. It's horrifying. And it's like if we're just too normal Like if this just happens in adulthood Then it's like it's not a big deal
Starting point is 02:12:49 I disagree I think I think maybe There's still that that that juvenile Kid in me who if if an elbow Touches Boob I still get a little scared I literally I go I go Yeah like I'm like oh My bad sorry and I think that That event is worth examining
Starting point is 02:13:05 I just say oh sorry ma'am Yo's fucking sorry how a lot about about it I didn't mean to touch your breast ma'am So I think that It's tough Because it feels like a day ruiner Depending on the context I also believe day ruiner
Starting point is 02:13:24 I think it's a day ruiner bro In Canada you just say soaring you move on To move off or endless haunting would be like You go to give her a high five And you move past it and put your hand on her move And then you recoil back Like you touch something sticky And you go oh my God I'm so sorry
Starting point is 02:13:42 That would be So sorry. But elbow is just like you rebound off the bra. You feel really, really kind of like, oh my God, I'm so sorry. You know what?
Starting point is 02:13:50 It's a feeling I was too close. Yeah. I was too close to this person. Like physically, I fucked out. You feel all this like just a rush of shame. Can you put it like towards the top? It's kind of funny.
Starting point is 02:14:00 That's towards the top. It's like anywhere up there. It's funny. Yeah, great. And yeah, do anyone want to add anything? No.
Starting point is 02:14:09 The toilet clog. Toilet clog. So I want to bring up a specific example. that's happened to me this is like you're sharing a hotel room with someone and you go take a shit and you clog the toilet
Starting point is 02:14:21 and there's not a plunder but you must make it known to the other person that you've clogged the toilet because you have to prevent them from going in for a while you have to say look I clogged the toilet
Starting point is 02:14:32 I'm going to handle it but I've clogged the toilet okay look I think it's actually not worth making a distinction because I think clogging a toilet and also having to use the plunger and people
Starting point is 02:14:45 kind of hearing that happen they'll get there too is equally I'm thinking you're going to come with a plunger eventually but what I'm trying to avoid is like you clogging a toilet using the plunger and like getting away with it well what I'm saying is even if that's my situation is you
Starting point is 02:15:00 you unclog it with the plunger people hear it like unless the bathroom somewhere else and you do get away with it it's a clean get away I'll happily include you clog the toilet and then everyone in the house at home hears the plunging and then you just walk out without mentioning
Starting point is 02:15:16 and you're like, I walk out and just like, and then you just like wash your hands like 20 minutes into this process. You know, the sink goes 20 minutes in. Or even the sink running and then you hear the plunging and it's like they're not in both places. Here's the thing, even if you were in there and you didn't clog it, you were shitting for 20
Starting point is 02:15:32 minutes. Something went wrong and people are going to notice that and it's up to them to say well, you were in there for a while. I ever tell you guys about Atriarch hosts a pool party every year where he rents out like the backyard of basically a big mansion that like rents out their pool and one year he's been doing this for years now one three years ago blur clogs the backhouse toilet and the next year the next year we came back there is a sign in that room no poops that says no poops in that bathroom will clog
Starting point is 02:16:05 toilet and and and then we keep going back to the same place it's a picture of blur and he's behind bars He would have no shame. He would just be like, come on. You are now watching a high win rate shitter. It sucks. This is really, really embarrassing. This is move off. Okay, I will say this.
Starting point is 02:16:31 I think it's smooth off. This is, again, obviously, it's like normal situations where you're likely to be embarrassed. But if this happened and like, honestly, of anyone in this office or any, like, any of you guys or our girlfriends or something, I'm coming in there like a fucking, like Mario, and I'm making a joke about it.
Starting point is 02:16:48 It's hilarious that I did this. Yeah. Because you clogged it, is what you're saying. Yeah. And I think there's some consideration for that. You're kind of, and correct me to think I'm wrong, and you're kind of the poop guy of the group. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:17:01 You understand? I mean? What are you? What? You're kind of the, he's kind of the poop guy. And it's actually kind of crazy, because in our group, I think there's be, like, if we took any of us individually to another,
Starting point is 02:17:11 group. No politic here? Because I think any human being that I've kind of like collectively named if they did this, it is a celebration across the board. It's fun. Yeah, but that's why you're the poop guy. No, no, it's a celebration with everybody. Like, if Aiden comes and he clogs the toilet and he comes and he goes, oh, clog the toilet, he does a fucking face. The fact that you think this makes you the poop guy. That's what we're saying. So you're saying this is incorrect. I'm saying you like, you like, you
Starting point is 02:17:41 like the fact that poop caused a problem. It's happy for you. But I'm saying that he handles this with the same amount of whimsy that I would. Oh, you're saying what he would do. Yeah. Would you do that? Or would you be embarrassed? I called the toilet. Oh, in this group of people, I would do that. I would do what he's saying. And you would do it too. But I would be embarrassed as hell. It's funny. You would. Yes, of course.
Starting point is 02:18:01 You'd be embarrassed. What if it's the four of us? If you heard the slurping of a plunger in the Airbnb hotel room on a trip and I came out. You would be embarrassed. It's us. Bro, yeah. It's course it's embarrassing. I would never be embarrassed in front of you got. I would be embarrassed, of course. But I would still tell you. That's so interesting. Yeah, it's just embarrassing. It's like my poop caused... What's embarrassing about it? It's a strong poop.
Starting point is 02:18:19 My sideways log caused a problem. Like, I broke the infrastructure of sanitation in this building with my, with me. Like, that's embarrassing. Like, why am I different than what it was designed to handle? It's funny because the way you, the way you just described it, sounds kind of sick. Yeah, yeah, you're like a machine
Starting point is 02:18:35 built to destroy. I feel like a freak. Maybe low-key. That's so funny. I mean, But again, this is getting away from it in a more normal situation where you're likely to be embarrassed to have to tell people that this happened or whatever. It's smooth off.
Starting point is 02:18:50 I think it's smooth off. I'm with you. Because it's like... It happened to me in front of a girl once. Especially like a house gathering or something. You have to kind of either find who runs the place. Yeah, or...
Starting point is 02:19:02 That's the worst. Hey, do you know what's plunger? Or stick a pen in the toilet. Dude, in Italy? Again, I don't care because it was with you guys and it was like a villa. But man, I had to use a pen to break it up.
Starting point is 02:19:14 It was the most proud poop I've ever taken. Besides at Robbie's house. So gross. We got to move on. Besides that Robbie's house. Okay, loud fart in public. This is just the opposite of fart in public's quiet. It's less about the smell.
Starting point is 02:19:27 The smell can make it worse. It's more that you fart and everyone hears. It's kind of just day ruiner, right? I don't know, man. I think, and hey, I'm the poop guy. I think it's really, really haunting. Like, I don't. Imagine this is in the coffee shop that you go into every day.
Starting point is 02:19:43 Yeah, he really, he's quick to make it a complete stranger because he has farted in front of some people that he barely knows. Like you farted in front of Muggle Moves employees. Yeah. I 100% know these guys a lot. What are you talking about? You know, like Liza's last name? Spinelli.
Starting point is 02:19:59 Not close. Nope. And you did, zipper. And you did fart in front of her once. What is Liza's last name? Right. Anyway. So this is kind of what I mean.
Starting point is 02:20:10 for a long time. Come on. Yeah? I think Liza's a bad example. I think you're not wrong but that's a bad example and I have farted but I'm talking about people who I deem as innocent civilians. I think it's a day, this has happened to me. It's a day ruiner. Just a day ruiner.
Starting point is 02:20:28 I think about it for a lot of the day. You're such a fucking joke. What do you mean? Because it's not as bad as farting publication. Because you're just, it's cope. Oh, it's not it must not be that bad. Bro, you farted loud. People heard it. Why don't you care? Because they won't remember it five minutes later. Yes, they will. I'll think about it the rest of the day.
Starting point is 02:20:47 Nick told me about you farting once. You think we don't talk about it? Because Aidan Fartes doesn't say anything. That's the weird thing. He farts. You just gonna fart. He just continues on like nothing happened. Because you have to. No, you gotta be like, you gotta do you gotta go like, oh, or something.
Starting point is 02:21:04 Yeah. You gotta acknowledge. No, but that's what I'm saying. You gotta go, how horrible. Shame. It's what I do just now. Shame is it beyond this? It just ruins the day and that's it. I,
Starting point is 02:21:18 I, I, I, I, I, I, I, think you're 100% wrong.
Starting point is 02:21:21 I think you're insane for saying that. Well, a girl in my high school farted very loudly in front of the whole class and she ran to the bathroom, crying, and said,
Starting point is 02:21:27 she was saying things very similar to smooth off. It was reported that... Okay. Maybe she should have just been like you. Pomeen smooth off. Maybe she should just... Fuck me up.
Starting point is 02:21:36 Bung me up. Popa me up. me and Scoombo. Maybe she should have been like Ashley in eighth grade and just pissed all over the floor and pretended it didn't happen. It has to be more embarrassing than the smelly one. Wait, the smelly one is worse. No, it's not because you can reasonably like deny it. Yes, you have deniability. I guess maybe, but it's like I think I feel legitimately bad for setting my toxins on people. Yeah, but that's between you and God and Christ above. Okay. This one is like you are pointed at everyone gets an exclamation point over their head. You guys are winning this argument actually. Move off. Move off. What is hallway dance? Is this caught dancing? Ah, you're trying to get by? Oh, hallway dance.
Starting point is 02:22:16 So it's like, yeah, I see, I see. Yeah. So this is kind of similar to grocery store lingering, but it's happening to both you. I feel this way. I feel the way about hallway dance the same way I feel about you too, which is I would put it in loki a good thing
Starting point is 02:22:30 because it's a funny human moment together. And there's no one, no one is in trouble. We just got to be cute for a second. I like this. I think this is a, besides the one that I use the one time for, which I believe in very wholeheartedly. It is awkward, but it's awkward, slighted positive where it's like, how a fun little twist on walking. We flipped the coin wrong four times. The only time it even goes bad is like, have you ever had one that goes on weirdly long?
Starting point is 02:22:56 Like you hit the sixth time and it's like, okay, one of us has to fucking move. Never. This only happens in my imagination. Yeah. What I think about what the worst thing could happen walking on the street is. I kind of think it's like, it's like skipping rocks. It's like you've had one really dope one. your life.
Starting point is 02:23:12 Yeah. So the next one is the car version of this. Or if you're a pedestrian, it's the traffic, go ahead, know you, maybe a stop sign.
Starting point is 02:23:23 Fucking, weirdly enough, I think this is fucking miserable and I think it's move off. I hate this shit. So it's funny. So this infuriates me, but it's not awkward to me.
Starting point is 02:23:34 That's exactly what I was going to say. I think, let me, tell me how you feel. I think, if someone's saying, If you pull up the stop sign, maybe arguably the same time.
Starting point is 02:23:43 And they wave you and then you wave them. If they wave you back, they've broken the rule. Interesting. Because this is why. If they wave you, you might not be trying to go first.
Starting point is 02:24:00 You might be changing the fucking song at the stoplight. You might have a reason to wave. But if you wave and then they wave back, they're breaking a contract. They're breaking a contract. It's like, no, no, no, I wave. Don't wave back.
Starting point is 02:24:13 We already went through the both. Like, I'm saying, no, I insist. And you're going, no, please. Well, I think part of this sometimes includes that it didn't actually start with waving. It started with you guys pump faking. I'm going, oh, he's going on top. Oh, he's going on top. And now you start to wave.
Starting point is 02:24:28 Okay, if you pump fake and one of you waves and then someone waves back, the second guy isn't the wrong. Yes. The guy who waived said, you win, go. You don't get to go. You, you go. So what you're saying is there's a simple formula to this, and if it's not followed, it's just wrong. And I'm saying it's just wrong and mad. It makes me mad. But I never felt awkward in awkward in this moment ever. It's weird because I put it in day ruiner out of like frustration, but not out of...
Starting point is 02:24:55 I hate this shit. I guess I've never subscribed to this math problem, but I hate the idea of both of us not being sure. And then the worst part is like, you start to go and then the other person starts to go and then you kind of wait. And then you start to go. And then you start to go. And then you start to start to go and then you start to go and then like you both tried to pause and you're flipping the coin a bunch wrong but you're in cars and it fucking I hate it I would put it in Day Rooner just to kind of get it out of our mind maybe I'm too cynical
Starting point is 02:25:24 maybe it's a good thing what are you talking about it's not a good thing no no Day Rooner overruled day Runeer overruled What are you talking about? I don't know Day Rewater you've been overruled Let's go to that last one there Cop Myron Cop Myron
Starting point is 02:25:38 This is like what? Maybe someone They look very nice Pretty girl Pretty girl and you're looking at them And then they see you looking at them Oh shit This doesn't also have to be like
Starting point is 02:25:52 Attractiveness thing Maybe a guy has giant fucking biceps And they're sick And you're like just staring at this guy's vainy biceps And maybe you're like maybe it is a sexual thing It is And then he looks and you're like Oh fuck
Starting point is 02:26:03 So basically you were caught observing someone Maybe longer than you kind of were supposed to be doing. It, like, oh God, it really depends. I'm gonna say no big deal though. No big deal. Not to say that, like, in all cases, because I'm sure, like, women definitely don't like feeling ogled or whatever.
Starting point is 02:26:22 But like, I think people, you know, it's like innocent and it's kind of like a look and then it's what people like when you notice them generally. I'll say I do. It doesn't happen a lot. But if I'm getting looked at and then I notice and someone kind of snaps their head away, I still got it.
Starting point is 02:26:35 Oh, I guess I fucking, I guess my graphic T did. day is pretty good. To me it's no big deal. You guys are both going no big deal? Yeah. I think this is being cut. I'd put it in day, Rooner. Really?
Starting point is 02:26:50 But I'm, you guys outvote me. Well, can you explain why? I think there's, regardless of the version of this, like I think there's the, wow, this person's like attractive and I'm looking at them. There's the people, there's just the plain people watching version of it.
Starting point is 02:27:07 Sure. I see someone because, and they're fascinating for some reason. Yeah, a guy has a full on skullet ponytail. And I want to watch him. You want to see, you're just trying to look like how physically is that working? And then I think... At worst, they meet my eye line and then I break contact immediately and I kind of feel a little awkward.
Starting point is 02:27:26 But it's, I'm not thinking about it for more than a minute. I think I just feel a sense of shame because like should I, maybe I shouldn't have indulged. And I don't mean in like a... It is indulgent. Yeah. It is. And I don't mean in like a... a sexual sense.
Starting point is 02:27:41 I mean, in like a, like, I, I'm, like, choosing to observe this person in a way that, like, that is inherently selfish? I don't know. I, dude, I'm with you there, but I like the idea of telling myself when I look at skullet ponytail man
Starting point is 02:28:01 and he sees me and I snap away, that it is no big deal. And actually, that's a sick-ass skullet ponytail. So what we decide, boys? NBD. NBD as well. All right. Okay, so we're going to come back around this one.
Starting point is 02:28:16 This is saying hi to someone, and then you recognize that it's not actually somebody you know. It's a stranger. I still hold it's Loki a good thing. Loki a good thing. To me, it's the hallway dance. I mean, it's you turn it into something kind of fun. A person you would have never spoken to,
Starting point is 02:28:31 you get to speak to. Meet a new person. I think it's also Loki a good thing because it's rarely is it for them a bad thing. Very rarely. Unless you're like, so I'm so sorry, are you the Guinness World Record holder for like worst hairline?
Starting point is 02:28:47 Yeah. I'm so sorry, it's not you. Oh, sorry. Usually it's like, sorry, I thought you were fucking Glenn Howardton. You know, it's like, it's a celebrity. Realistically, you just have like an interesting conversation. Yeah. Realistically. This actually happened. I was, I was on the way
Starting point is 02:29:02 to a date. This is in Santa Monica and I'm walking down the street and had sunglasses on. And this pack of kids thought I was Johnny Sins. Like, yo, are you Johnny Sins? I take out my glass. I'm like, no. And they're like, oh, bro, you look like him. And you're like, thanks, guys.
