Starting point is 00:01:12 We're excited today because we have to hear more of people's complaints. It's so great. It's so great. I love hearing people complain and I'm honestly starting to, this is the weird part that I never thought, I'm starting to just want to hear owner responses more and more now. I'm very much interested in that. I like-
Starting point is 00:01:31 I need your side of the story, business owner. Because it's other than the psychopath guy, a lot of the times I'm kind of on their side a little bit because it's like, listen shitbag, let me tell you what you don't understand. Unless it's like, you know, I found a roach in my food or some shit like that, there's poop on the floor. Then it's like, takebag. Let me tell you what you don't understand unless it's like, you know I found a roach in my food or some shit like that is poop on the floor Then it's like take your lumps and shut up, but I Enjoy when there's like you were never even here. What do you yeah, we checked all of our records
Starting point is 00:01:55 We don't know you Or even better we checked our records and saw that you stumbled into the parking lot Fucking ran your car into one of our light poles and then careened off into the street from there. So I don't know. You were drunk when you were here. Maybe it was your drunkenness. So anyway, let's get into this.
Starting point is 00:02:15 First of all, before we start, definitely check out our other two shows, Crime and Sports and Small Town Murder, which are exactly what they sound like. And of course, follow on social media and tell your friends and please rate and review the show as well It helps so much. We don't know why but it does so Let's get into this and talk about some people who have rated and reviewed. I'm hungry. Jimmy you hungry Let's get it. Oh, I'm starving and this is gonna be a local Phoenix place I'm a place that I know you've seen before and I've actually eaten here before a place that I know you've seen before, and I've actually eaten here before, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:02:46 It is, and you wonder why every month or so, or maybe not even every month, but we've probably had more Phoenix places than most places. That's because Jimmy lives there for 40 years, and I lived there for over 20 years, so we're familiar with it. Very aware.
Starting point is 00:03:01 It's fun to make fun of, so who cares? Anyway, this is Lim's Chinese Restaurant. Lim's, L-I-M. Where is Lim's? Is it on Cave Creek? Greenway, right off of Cave Creek. You know exactly what I'm talking about. It's garbage. It is, from the outside, it looks like it's been closed
Starting point is 00:03:17 since 1987. It's so bad. Like literally 1987, it looks like it's been closed. The parking lot's broken. Yeah, it's been closed. You know parking lots broken. Yeah, it's all crack It's all fucked up. It's like weeds in the in the in the bar There's weeds and it's next to like weird businesses that aren't really but it's like a sewing machine repair shop or so When the fuck is the last time you've seen a functional sewing machine repair shop? That's the type of shit that's in this little weird strip mall that's rent is like $180
Starting point is 00:03:48 a month or something. And everyone, remember when, when you would buy things and then take it to a repair shop, but just throwing it the fuck out, throwing it out. Yes. It's got like that. It's got like a, you know, like a baby milk center or some shit. Like it's got weird stuff in there. Where you trade in your breast milk for something.
Starting point is 00:04:10 And it's right on the border of the square, which is kind of an infamous place in North Phoenix. It's a geographical square mile that happens to house all of the worst shit in Phoenix. Happens to house like 78% of the felons in the North Phoenix area. And it happens to be in an area where like everything around it is,
Starting point is 00:04:29 is fine. Anywhere from decent to really nice. Yes, and then this really shitty area. They have like three police substations in a square mile block. It's always helicopters. It's so bad. It's bad shit.
Starting point is 00:04:42 And I had friends that used to hang, they used to live in there, and I used to hang out at their house all the times no no no it was actually it wasn't a complex it was like one of these little side ones oh jeez yeah it was bad they got free air conditioning though so it was fantastic so they used to eat here all the time because it had like it had like a takeout buffet option where you could like stuff a clamshell full of shit for like four dollars it was ridiculous it's so but I mean like the chickens like fatty and it's a fucking it's a discount Chinese joint will say here and just to give a little it says Chinese kitchen
Starting point is 00:05:20 bringing together traditional entrees plus a buffet in an informal setting. That is an understatement of the year. Informal is a great way to put it. No shirt, no problem. No shirt, no shoes. You better not be wearing pants either. Yeah, let's go. Tablecloth and a batting helmet?
Starting point is 00:05:44 Come on in, sir. It's informal. We don't give a fuck get in here So it says has all you can eat high chairs available in case you want your kids to get sick, too 2412 East Greenway Road it is and let's see here I'm gonna show you a picture even though you've seen it before but I want your reaction again. That's after the redo. That's after the redo which they slapped some paint on the outside but they still have the same sign from 1977. And now open as it did as it did for forever. The sign isn't quaint either. It's not like a neon or anything. It's just a shitty old faded sign. If it's lit up, it's because there's a spotlight
Starting point is 00:06:31 pointing at it at night. Yeah, probably from a police car. So let's get into this. It has four stars somehow on Google at 819 reviews. It has, in that little area right around there, it has a loyal following, where some people just love this shit, but it makes you sick every time.
Starting point is 00:06:50 I remember my friend would get it all the time, and he'd be like, man, I know they put something in this shit to make you sick, and I'm like, why do you keep eating this? What's wrong with you? It was $4. It was $4 for all I could eat. It filled my stomach.
Starting point is 00:07:02 That's it, yep. So here's Mike Five Stars. He's got a shitload of reviews on Google too, local guide and all that. Buffet had about 10 main course options. I tried them all. Everything was tasty and fresh, the exterior is a little rough but don't let that scare you.
Starting point is 00:07:23 That's the other thing is the sign on the streets even worse than the building Yeah, the sign like out by the sidewalk in the parking lot is looks like it's from the 30s No, it's so old and fucked up and dingy. It's terrible There's a picture of his plate with a sprinkling of things Ten things my man's adventurous Laurie five stars again. Okay and that's how she does that.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Yeah dot dot dot. This place looks rough on the outside. Sure does. Yes that's a fact and pretty basic on the inside. It's been here a long time and that usually speaks to the food or the fact that it's in a shit neighborhood and it's four dollars I think is what it speaks to. Wow. So you go inside and you pay at the counter and you get your cup and head to the buffet.
Starting point is 00:08:12 There are only about a dozen entree items, all your standards. The food is fresh, all caps. Nothing precooked or frozen. Nothing fancy or fusion. How do you know if it's been frozen? You don't know frozen? No idea. No clue. Nothing fancy or fusion except for the french fries. Fresh cut and dipped in tempura then fried. Yummy. That actually sounds like a good way to do french fries. You like that? That could be very delicious. I
Starting point is 00:08:38 just want crispy. I don't want soggy. I don't like a fry that's been dipped in anything. I don't like that crust on the outside. I could do without that too, but if it's crispy or soggy, I'll give me that. Tempura's very light. Just deep fry a potato, man. It's fucking legit. I mean, I'm also, obviously that's the best way to do it,
Starting point is 00:08:55 but I'm intrigued about a Tempura French fry. I don't know that I wouldn't try it. I'd give it a shot. I'm not saying it'd be great. Don't let the outside fool you. This place is a hidden gem off Cave Creek and Greenway. We will be back. To the bathroom, you'd be back. So, Savannah one star.
Starting point is 00:09:14 This place is nothing like the reviews claim it is. From the outside, you might think it's a coming of age, aesthetic, classic, hole in the wall Chinese spot, but no. Okay. Hipsters. Alright, but no. Okay. Hipsters. All right. Listen, everybody. I get it. Like hipsters have this thing where they're like, Oh, it's, look at it. The parking lot's broken. That must mean it's authentic. It also might mean that they don't give a fuck about their business or invest in it at all.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Or it might mean that's the only place they can afford to rent a brick and mortar What it might mean, that's the only place they can afford to rent a brick and mortar building is in a shit strip mall where the management and ownership of the strip mall doesn't give a fuck. No, they have a baby milk exchange center. They don't give a shit or whatever it is. They don't care. And if they don't give a shit about the building, think about what that food is being cooked in.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Think about, well yeah, the outside looks like that. Everybody says look at the bathroom. Because they let you see the bathroom. This is before you even fucking get in the door. If you pull in the parking lot and it looks like that, imagine what the bathroom, then the kitchen, looks like from there. It gets worse and worse and worse.
Starting point is 00:10:18 It's only gonna get worse from there. So this person saw it shitty and went, that must mean the food's good. It's great. it's just terrible. It's just bad, they say. First, they overcharged us for the two kids with us, which we thought we could look past because the food would make up for it, right?
Starting point is 00:10:35 Wrong, all caps. My sister almost had a meltdown because her egg roll tasted like soap. Just don't eat a meltdown. Maybe it had cilantro in it, I don't know, just don't eat it. A meltdown? Maybe it had cilantro in it, I don't know. But a meltdown over a shit. I'm assuming the sister's an adult person.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Yeah, yeah. Also, maybe don't eat the next egg roll. Because I was just gonna say, I go, oh, that egg roll's not very good, and I put it down, it's a buffet. So then I get the next thing, who cares? I'm not eating egg rolls today. To give them the benefit of the doubt,
Starting point is 00:11:05 my nephew really liked the noodles that looked like it had canned chicken in it, like probably little square cuts, and the Jell-O, because every Chinese buffet has, the only dessert they offer is Jell-O or weird cookies that don't taste right. Don't touch those. However, the food was cold,
Starting point is 00:11:22 and you're better off buying great value orange chicken that you cook up in your air fryer while you're watching Shrek 3. That's very specific. That's a very specific Saturday afternoon she just laid out for us. She's done that before. I was going to say. She went home and was like, I'm just going to have goddamn fucking Shrek 3 air fryer great value chicken.
Starting point is 00:11:43 I'm like Mike Myers to talk while I eat great value food. Eddie Murphy, get me through this. What the fuck? What is that? Complete waste of $65. Cameron Diaz. Complete waste of $65. $65?
Starting point is 00:12:04 There's at least four people that we've heard of so far. Yeah. So, I don't know. If it's $12 to $15 a person, I guess. But for kids? How much is for a kid? Six bucks? I mean, what could it cost?
Starting point is 00:12:15 What kind of damage is a kid going to do to a fucking Chinese buffet? $15 for fucking buffet food? For shit buffet food with not a lot of options. That's crazy. Because you can go to that one in Northwest Phoenix out there on Belle that's got sushi and all the actually good Chinese with huge buffet and it's like $17, you know what I mean? On a weeknight.
Starting point is 00:12:36 And it's enormous. It's fucking huge. They have everything. You will not sample everything. You'll die. They have the shit that you give to them and they cook. They have that. They have the whole buffet.
Starting point is 00:12:44 They have sushi bar. They have... it's good. It's actually decent The second I tasted this food. I wanted to get into my car drive 18 hours back to East Texas and eat at my beloved China Cafe in Gun Barrel City, Texas Pew pew motherfucker If you're not a small town murder listener, we had an insane episode of small town murder in gun barrel city, Texas. Betty Lou Beats. Betty Lou Beats baby, you know it. That was years ago. Oh, that's a great episode. I'm
Starting point is 00:13:16 going to in and out now. I would like to note there was a- You're about to be disappointed. I was going to say, you're having a bad culinary day. Baby, you are over too. She's just a glutton for punishment this one. Yeah. Would like to note there was a mosquito in my nephew's water which is a real problem because he's allergic to bees. That's not a real problem. That's an entirely different animal ma'am. Completely different thing. Hey get that
Starting point is 00:13:41 broccoli away from me. I'm allergic to peanuts. Those are different things They both grow from the ground, but totally different I'm allergic to tree nuts. Get totally different broccoli tree away from me. It's those trees. It's growing on You never know a fucking walnut could pop out of the wild woman Now he's scared of bugs. Well, you need to probably. And he's scared of frogs? Bugs. Oh, bugs. Worms, Roxanne.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I'm afraid of worms. Holy shit. Oh my God, I love it. The visit caused immense emotional distress. What is going on with this person? Calm down. He ate some lousy Chinese food. Then you went and got a burger We've all done it. It's happened fucking loosen up You're she's from East Texas and she traveled to Phoenix to just sample cuisine I don't know better now that she it's just made her want to go all the way back to Texas to get a better Chinese
Starting point is 00:14:41 I don't know what it is. You're moved to Phoenix. Yeah back to Texas to get a better Chinese. I don't know what it is. Right, okay. So you moved to Phoenix, yeah. Yeah, you're better off going to the ATM, pulling out $65 and lighting it on fire. This visit was so bad, I started praying to a god I don't even believe in. The hyperbole of this woman is maddening. Here's the experience.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Hey, have you ever been in that Lim's Place, the buffet? Yeah, we went the other day. Was it any good? Eh, I don't know, it's kind of crappy. Not really. We had an out afterwards. Hey, have you ever been in that Lim's Place, the buffet? Yeah, we went the other day. Was it any good? Eh, I don't know, it's kind of crappy. Not really. We had an out afterwards. Oh, really? Yeah, it kind of sucked.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Okay, that's the whole, that's it. That's what you had happen to you. Nobody got poisoned, there wasn't poop in your food, there was no- I don't know, the worst thing, there was a mosquito in the water and then we went and got disappointed by cheeseburgers elsewhere. You know, yeah, so then we were mad at that. And two thin french fries that we don't like. Fuck, I love them. I don't like them.
Starting point is 00:15:29 I want potato in my french fries. I like a steak fry. Like, Red Robin is the fries I like. Oh, that's a lot of fries. That's what I like. Crispy on the outside, potato-y on the inside. Yeah, those are cheap, strange, garbage. I like a fries that I can grab a shitload of them
Starting point is 00:15:42 with a pinch, and then just push those fuckers right in my face. They're always soggy. There's no, they're either soggy or burnt to the fact that even when they're cold, they're fucking rock hard. One of the two. There's no way to make them, that's why. Rehydrate your fucking fries to a consistent level.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Yes, there you go. Cindy Stoddard here. OK, one star. My husband took me for our anniversary. To limbs? OK, here you go. Cindy divorced his first time here. Never mind. Let's have a review of your marriage.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Because Cindy, I got news for you. Your husband took out a life insurance policy on you and then took you to limbs. Dude, you've been to this place. Imagine on your anniversary pulling up in that parking lot with a woman and going, here we are, romance awaits. Not a chance. That's a man that was not going to have sex on his anniversary, I promise that.
Starting point is 00:16:37 No, especially not after this meal. And the food posted on the website is not what you get. No selection at all, no noodles at all. I was very disappointed and will never go there again for what you pay. You get ripped off and no senior discount. Oh, so there's no older. Don't eat there. Exclamation point. Staff sat, how old you know, staff sat in the middle of dinner, a dinner area and spoke so loud. You could not enjoy the bad food. It was rude. You didn't even understand what they were saying.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Everyone, I've been in there. They all speak Chinese to each other. There's no... They're not in there talking about you. Or maybe they are, but you can't understand it again. You don't know. Yeah, just enjoy your shit food. Here's one star and here's pictures of the bathroom, which do not look confidence inducing here. I don't know how this restaurant is still in business. The food was okay. I mean, is a buffet. I mean, is a buffet. I wasn't really, I wasn't really want to write the review. That's good. And this guy is a local guide with a shitload of reviews by the way. I wasn't, I wasn't really want to
Starting point is 00:17:43 write the review until I decided to use the bathroom. It was nasty. Just imagine the food. It was one girl work there. She was doing her best. It was one girl work there. I mean, what more? What can you do when you're only one girl working there?
Starting point is 00:17:58 This is a Phoenix local and also this is how they talk. Yes. This person was born in America And has lived here, but the restaurant. I don't recommend at all. I took pictures to the bathroom Just to look at them in there while you shit And I will try to bust it with the review Oh post I think is what they're going for the bathroom has like graffiti on it That's it. That's the light, which is filthy. It looks like it has poop on it. There's an open window. Look at that. To the square. So you can hear screams and death rattles
Starting point is 00:18:37 from there. That's nice. Jesus Christ. I see this guy banging this out on a very old iPhone wearing a Chevrolet heartbeat of America Pumping it out on a blackberry god damn it Fucking fat thing. I'm gonna try to post this to the internet Pictures from this seven pixel camera workout Hopefully them computer gremlins will take it through the wires and put it up so y'all can see it. That's what it seems like.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Sean one star, worst restaurant ever. And this has all caps, three exclamation points, not only at the end of it, but before worst also, in the Spanish way. Yeah. Beginning and the end. of it but before worst also in the Spanish way like I am calling the health inspector and will be trying to reach the owner look at this picture a dirty mop head string in my food he this is he's got a piece of orange chicken there is a mop head what a string a dirty mop strings how does it get to the. How does it get to the floor? How does it get from the floor up onto a counter to get mixed in with the food? Was somebody wearing that trying to be a woman?
Starting point is 00:19:55 Are they mopping the counters or preparing the chicken on the floor? Which one is happening? Or are they trying to wear it as a wig? How the fuck does that get anywhere? Yeah, I don't know. Like a bug's bunny or something. Somebody's in the back with a mop head on their head going, yeah. Just going, look at me, I'm pretty. Just as a joke, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:20:16 Some Chinese guys back there, look, very pretty, ha ha. They're reenacting Romeo and Juliet and just need somebody to be a gal today. They're two dudes. Somebody needs it. I'm not sure. How do you get a mop head in the fucking food? I've never seen, heard of, or fathomed fucking imagined. I've heard of a hair in the food, but how do you get a mop head?
Starting point is 00:20:38 That I could see. Gravity would make... Gravity doesn't operate in this restaurant. Things float. I don't know how this works. Wow. Either gravity doesn't work or they make chicken on the floor. What do they do? It's gotta be.
Starting point is 00:20:51 My wife bit into it. My wife bit into the mop string. Oh god damn it. She sucked it into her mouth like spaghetti. Yeah, thought it was a lo mein noodle. Jesus Christ, this lo mein is terrible. Very chewy Tastes like pineapple. I don't like it. I don't like it. Um, before realizing something was wrong. How is it possible for this to happen? I don't know how it's possible for your wife
Starting point is 00:21:15 to be so stupid that she ate a mop string. I feel like I would have noticed that on my fork. She didn't taste the fabuloso on it? I don't know how any of this is possible and being real honest with you here. Wow. Absolutely the worst dinning experience of my life. Of course. Not dining. We both threw up. I would too. I threw up because she did. We had a good portion. We had a good portion already ate at this point. I got my money back but that is my health and the health of the community they are putting at risk. The manager and whoever is responsible for this needs to be fired. I have an idea that this is probably
Starting point is 00:21:54 a family operation. Yeah, it's their children. They're not going to fire. Yes, they're not going to fire their nephew who's 14 and works here. Even after showing the manager the meal with mop head in it, she still attempted to sell another meal to another customer who smartly declined and walked out. Hold on. They went up to the counter like, I got a mop string and they were like,
Starting point is 00:22:16 no, no, here, yeah, two, two for dinner? And they were like, no. You get to the side, please. We'll talk to you in a minute. We're okay. Okay, one star here. Had a great meal, or had a meal at Lim's, not great. And it was going okay.
Starting point is 00:22:30 But then things took a turn. Mophead, what are we talking here? Went to grab seconds and saw a small roach near the food. Okay. On the counter. Cashing out now. It's bright and heated, like those are bold roaches. Imagine how many there are.
Starting point is 00:22:48 You know what I mean? The heat doesn't affect them. Nope. Totally lost my appetite right then and there. I don't blame you. Staff noticed and went to kill the bug. But seeing the bug really made me question how clean the place is. Yeah, if there's one out in the open, imagine what's in the back.
Starting point is 00:23:04 I won't be going back. Hard to give one star after the Roach incident. I'm never going back. Okay. They said that before. It's like a song lyric keeps bringing it back. It's the chorus. We were not offered our money back. All the guy said was thanks guys. What a joke. Thanks for pointing that out for me. Yeah. Jose, one star. French fries look like a human finger. That's a problem. Yeah. Tempura. Tempura.
Starting point is 00:23:30 The sweet and sour pork was pork flavored. Right. Yeah. Okay, good. You get it. But the meat was not specified. Huh? Wait a second.
Starting point is 00:23:41 It's sweet and sour pork, man. Sweet and sour pork and it tastes like pork. I am if it walks like a duck Quacks like a duck. I'm gonna go ahead and assume. It's a fucking duck at this point Yeah, if I could leave a zero star review But doesn't say I would just doesn't say that If I could leave a zero star review I would I pay oh I would I pit so he does say I would but then he Goes into another sentence without any punctuation. I paid I felt okay good. We're At least the world is on its axis for us here. I

Wow, that's that's top-tier prices for a buffet Chinese buffet there again. down. I've had enough. Oh boy. They've been taking advantage of me for years. Stop by today and several patrons were visibly filthy and should have been refused entrance. Oh so hmm. It's a casual member. We said casual atmosphere. Incredibly casual. Plus I mean not to be a jerk here but it's not it's not the fucking Four Seasons right it's not there. Yeah, this is a this is you're in a Lower class a lower middle class neighborhoods Chinese buffet And if if even if they're homeless people if homeless people got up enough money to get food Right, maybe feed them. Here's the other
Starting point is 00:25:19 Asking for free shit. They're in there buying food the visibly dirty guys probably just got off work. That's the other thing. You know what I mean? That neighborhood has a lot of people that work construction in it. Yes, a lot of people work in muffler shops and fucking construction and drywall and roofing and come in with hot tar all over them and shit. A lot of people with dust and dirt all over them. Work very hard, make a nice living and now they just want some Chinese food, leave them alone and let them eat it. I couldn't finish my meal and had to leave. I'm not eating food with filthy people.

Go to Buckingrider and pay $40 for a piece of fish then you fucking asshole Jesus Christ Quickly a couple more here Nadine one star where you go using up so much of the show, but it's funny as fuck I don't care One star bad if you're used to eating out of garbage cans you will love it So it's bad, but if you're used to eating out of garbage cans gonna be top-notch Fuck yeah amazing how a place can stay open so long and serve what I call garbage food

Jesus Christ Hassan one star the owner. She is not nice Okay, or no. She not nice not even is the owner. She not nice Her buffet is quick cook supposedly Chinese food went there twice in two years thinking the first time was a fluke Second time as bad as the first. Got more mop head. Got more mop head in there, no good.
Starting point is 00:27:09 You don't wanna have that. Okay, so let's go from there. I'm all full up. We gotta do some walking around. Sure do. You know what I mean? The baseball season's over, I'm feeling a little historic about the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Let's go to the Hall of Fame, the baseball Hall of Fame. In Cooperstown. Cooperstown, New York. We are's go to the Hall of Fame, the baseball Hall of Fame. In Cooperstown. Cooperstown, New York. We are driving up to the middle of fucking nowhere. This shit is like three hours from me in the middle of Western New York. I don't know how they picked this as a spot. They're like, how about we get a place
Starting point is 00:27:36 that's not convenient for anyone to travel to? Anyone at all. It has to do something with the history of baseball, right? I guess, but there isn't even a fucking highway to it It's like you got to take these it's crazy roads and shit. Yeah Because that's where the first football team was that makes that Cooperstown has to have something to do with I know they have a Thing with Abner Doubleday there and stuff, but they found out that that's bullshit, and that's not where baseball So it's fucking move it at this point. It's who cares
Starting point is 00:28:04 But the town won't be a town anymore. It's the whole town is. It'll dry up. Is baseball. So this is in Cooperstown, New York. It has 4.8 stars out of 6,200 Google reviews. That's not bad. And I went there when I was 12 years old, 13 years old,
Starting point is 00:28:18 and it's fucking magical. It's a wonderful place. It's wonderful. They have tons of shit. And that was then. I'm sure now it's even better. Oh God I was gonna have way more stuff now. So I mean, just all sorts of cool shit. And it's a lot of stuff to look at to walk and just to take in and you don't even like you think I cob touched. Yeah, you could go there not a baseball fan and come
Starting point is 00:28:39 out liking the history of baseball. Like that's that's the way I would say here. So it is a the National Baseball Museum, Hall of Fame and Museum is a history museum and Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, operated by private interests. Oh. Okay. Now. Doesn't have anything to do with baseball.
Starting point is 00:28:56 No, Ricardo, five stars. Watch the video in the theater. If you have love of baseball, family, history, or a heart, you'll be moved. Take two to three hours and you can see the whole museum portion without rushing. Take more if you're someone who wants to read everything. The hall itself is cool for a baseball nerd, but not the main reason to come. Cooperstown is a place you can spend a whole weekend alone or with your family. I don't know what you would do in Cooperstown alone all weekend.
Starting point is 00:29:25 There's like two pizza places. All weekend? Yeah. And like five hat stores, you know? And it'd be like, that's, you'd be so fucking bored. There's nothing else there. Middle of nowhere. I went to the Negro League Museum.
Starting point is 00:29:35 In Kansas City. In KC. Yeah. And. I couldn't fucking get that stuff. It's way smaller than that, I imagine. Oh yeah, yeah. And it would, if I sat there and read every damn thing,
Starting point is 00:29:44 it would, I need to come back the next day. There's so much shit to be told. It is. Sarah Five Stars, as a lightweight baseball fan and a retired non-athletic woman who only and aptly has played ball, I expected to amble through the museum in just a couple of hours, but there was so much fun stuff to read, so many visiting baseball fans to interact with as we took in the exhibits that I was there for five hours.
Starting point is 00:30:10 She bothered strangers about this? Dude, she went there alone and was like, what do you think of that? Do you think Pete Rose belongs in here? And they're like, huh? Who knew his name was George Herman? I thought he was born, babe. Excuse me, I'm trying to take my sons here.
Starting point is 00:30:23 This is like a thing we're trying to make memories and you're not in them. So please fuck off. We knew his name was George Leave us alone. Leave us alone. We all know that's to everyone. That's who knew The history early baseball clubs standardizing the rules Negro leagues women's baseball Wonderful stories of all sorts of people who played and or enriched the game. It was just wonderful. The Hall of Fame plaques are career vignettes of the players. Just overwhelming and very cool.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Love the statue in with the Hall of Fame plaques area of Ted Williams and the notes about it. There are, yeah that's cool, there are areas that focus on key contributors, Babe Ruth, Cy Young, Connie Mack, Ken Griffey, Ichiro, etc. and areas that focus on groups of contributors, Latin Americans, Negro leagues, etc. And there are interactive opportunities, many, including the opportunity to take your photo and be emailed baseball cards of yourself and the team you select. That's cool for kids, that'd be fucking cool as shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Yeah, fun for all all highly recommended if you have any interest at all in baseball. She was all alone she got her own baseball card. Look it's just me no team solo team. I noticed families couples and groups of just women and just men everyone seemed to be having a good time. Good for all. And now the bad, one star from Monica. Dads in polo shirts with five kids that they can't control but times 50 so you can't possibly see or enjoy anything. Okay. Weird that kids would wanna see stuff about baseball, strange.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Yeah, and strange that a middle-aged dad probably played a little ball as a kid. Or just been watching his whole life. Yeah, and loves it. Stuff like that. Fucking loves it like that trying to introduce him to his sons to his love of it and hope that's nice okay but fuck that I can't see a bunch of assholes trying to make memories like fucking I'll bet you could get that out if you want to go do it by yourself probably I'm not sure be prepared to have people aimlessly stand in entryways, completely despondent to the
Starting point is 00:32:26 world around. Do not expect them to move. Great museum, but the absolute strangeness that come from the people of Cooperstown is too much. So you gave the museum one star. It's not the people of Cooperstown, it's tourists. You're upset with how tourists... You're upset with someone from Michigan or something.
Starting point is 00:32:43 That's what you're upset by. And all they can do is set up a fucking museum. They can't eyeball people as they come in and go, no, too many kids. They look rambunctious. Fuck off. You look like a stand-arounder. Get the fuck out of here. Monica's not going to be happy with this.
Starting point is 00:32:57 We don't feel like... You look like a guy that walks on the left side. Get out of here. Described every public place that's ever existed. Monica, I got news for you. Stay the fuck out of an airport. Yeah, the airport, the grocery store, the DMV. Those people are allegedly going someplace and they still stand in the middle of the fucking place. They don't seem to be in too much of a goddamn hurry to get there. I'll tell you that much. Seems like they've quit traveling before they got to where they're going. I'm having flashbacks and already upset that I have to go to
Starting point is 00:33:31 this Austin airport again because of what happened last time. I had a fucking meltdown. Yeah, airplane zoning them up to leave. And I was so right that they didn't even, at the airport if you have a meltdown and yell at people normally right or wrong you're in trouble. They'll arrest you yeah. I was so right that they asked that people behind me went yeah and then they actually listened to me and did what I said that's how right I was that's how fucking ridiculous the goddamn Delta counter at this fucking airport was. That's how ridiculous airports are. The people that work there forget how to move on. Crazy.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Mike, one star. They managed to make a great experience sour at the end. The museum itself is amazing and a must see if you're a baseball fan. My issue is with the return policy on items. So I'll give the whole Hall of Fame one star. See what I mean? Because they won't take back the fucking baseball. I know they will not reimburse the cost of sending back an item that was made incorrectly The cost of the shipping cost for sending it back. So he got something special ordered It showed up with a Reds Jersey instead of a fucking Cardinals Jersey, and he they won't pay for shipping to send it back
Starting point is 00:34:44 So one star for the entire baseball hall of fame Don't fix it man. You just gotta pay shipping and it says be careful of ordering items via the website. He didn't fucking Okay, I don't even go you're an asset Mike. I swear to God Mike You're something online and you're upset with the transaction. This doesn't nothing to do with all of it. There's nothing to do with all of it I have a feeling this happens a lot. Yeah, this happens to you a lot. I have a feeling oh My god and again Alex same shit one star the hall itself was fine Okay, okay, so five fucking stars. It's that's what you're there for is the hall of the gift shop is a separate thing Yeah, until we tried to pay for some shirts at the gift shop here
Starting point is 00:35:27 We go I paid with my European bank card and even though the funds were were and are are still taken from my account They told me it failed the eighty nine dollars are gone from my account And they are refusing to take responsibility and either give me my refund or send me my goods that they are calling free. Oh, I don't know what you're talking about. They are not free since I paid for them. So now their mess up turned into my problem. I was told to give it 24 hours and if the funds are not back in my account,
Starting point is 00:35:57 they would send me my goods. Now they're saying that my bank needs to send them the money while it's no longer in my account So it sounds like you need to wait until oh my charge is reversed Yeah, I don't know what's going on. Give it a few days This has nothing and I'm nothing nothing to do with Sandy Kofax's fucking plaque It has nothing to do with Joe DiMaggio's fucking hat from the 39 season. I guarantee you that The award is his fucking- The Camero's bat is still there.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Hitting streak, that's too much. So they either lied to me in the gift shop or they're just ill-informed. Honestly, I don't care. I want my shirts that I paid for and I want them now. One star. I want them now. Shannon one star, very disappointed
Starting point is 00:36:44 in the baseball Hall of Fame We paid $25 to get in just to look at plaques on the wall and that's all you get Would you expect that's not what happens the fucking ghost of satchel page to take you around the fucking joint. What do you want? Then she goes on to something that I know isn't even true. No jerseys of great players, heroes. You drive all the way out there just to look at plaques. That can't be true. It's certainly not true. They have all sections.
Starting point is 00:37:14 There's a response from the owner. Okay. Shannon, not sure where the disconnect was, but in addition to the plaque gallery that you referenced, there is more than 50,000 square feet of museum exhibits outside of that. Ma'am you missed the turn. You missed a city block of shit. Fucking idiots. You made a right turn at Albuquerque. Yeah like just like bugs. 50,000 feet of museum exhibits spread over three floors. She didn't even go upstairs.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Didn't even miss that. Featuring thousands of artifacts, jerseys, bats, balls, helmets, spikes, and lots of other items on display. We're sorry that you missed, they say the rest of the museum. I'm gonna say 96% of the museum. What'd you think was upstairs, Shannon, the fucking- Offices?
Starting point is 00:38:06 The plaque. Where they make the plaque the plaque culling department, I don't know where Wow plaque acquisitions the top three floors She had to have read that and just her belly had to fall. I hope That sounds like a type person that would be mad at them so well there wasn't signs then because I didn't see even though Everyone else found it Jesus Alan one star a true ripoff overpriced haven't been there in over three decades Well, then shut the fuck up 30 years ago. That's when I went there and it was wonderful
Starting point is 00:38:42 Shut up, and unless you're a baseball fanatic save your money Why reward the overpaid and cheating players of the last 25 years? Okay, there is Wow answer. Okay. Why are you reviewing the Hall of they don't even Barry Bonds isn't even the Hall of Fame They haven't even let him in Mark McGuire Roger Clemens. I'm in the hall. It's not a fuck up Jesus Christ Joseph one-, lame museum, mostly just stats and memorabilia on a wall. Which is a museum.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Oh my god damn it. It's everybody. I want the field of dreams ghost people to come out of a cornfield and play a game for us right here in front of us. That's what I want or else I will not be happy. I need Robert Redford to tell me everything. Tell me all I need to know. Jesus Christ. Nowhere near enough interactivity.
Starting point is 00:39:32 I would never I would never come back. Worth a visit if you drink the baseball Kool-Aid but not at all for a casual fan. These people are crazy. Truly. Fucking insanity. Okay, one star, Carrie, it's a beautiful museum, deserve five stars, but we make reservations for a Monday at noon, and it was so much people that we wasn't able to walk and enjoy. Monday, any day, middle of the day, probably shitloads of people. Yep, Tuesday, two o'clock, that's when there's no one there.
Starting point is 00:40:02 There you go. That's where I go everywhere. Tuesday, two hours before closing, that's the time you go. That's the time you go. And then this is a fun one. One star. Everyone who loves baseball should do the tour. Absolutely. One star. That's the whole review. That's all they said. I think you misunderstood the assignments. I need everybody to go that loves baseball and have your stomach turned by how they've just pissed on the whole legacy of Major League Baseball.
Starting point is 00:40:28 Oh my god, finally George one star. I didn't hate this place. I just got one star and I didn't get any more. I really liked it. He ran out of stars. That's his problem. He's used up all his. I've got left.
Starting point is 00:40:41 He used up his whole star allotment for the week and he doesn't have anything else to show you here. That's the problem. Oh, got left. He used up his whole star allotment for the week, and he doesn't have anything else to show you here. Oh, that's very funny. OK, so I'm still hungry. We walked around. We didn't eat anything. We're hungry again. It was Chinese food, James.
Starting point is 00:40:55 That's true. We're hungry. We just walked down the Hall of Plaques real quick, and now we're hungry again. There's nothing else. There's nothing else here. So I don't trust any of these restaurants anymore. Let's make our food at home.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Let's go grocery shopping. What do you say? Are we going to get some orange chicken and some trick three? We can, a bag of it if we want. Because we're going to a supermarket in Oakland. We're going to Foods Co. Oh boy. Oh boy, that's not good.
Starting point is 00:41:21 If it's got food in the title, it's usually bad. Food City, yeah, that's not good. If it's got food in the title, it's usually bad. Food City, yeah, that's not good. So 10790 MacArthur Boulevard, Oakland, California, for one of the Foothill Square shopping center, it says. This is 3.8 stars on Google, by the way, for a grocery store. Okay, here's five stars to start out with. New self-checkout is fast and good
Starting point is 00:41:44 for those who shop lightly. In and out every time instead of a long wait. Clean store too. Good job workers. Good job workers. I think he's saying good job workers. That's why punctuation's important. Because it just sounds like he's saying, they have good job worker people that go there. Supervisors, managers for sticking in there even through the pandemic, thank you, Food's Co. Yeah, okay. And employed individuals.
Starting point is 00:42:11 Yes, and employed, all to all employed individuals. Darrell, five stars, staple of this neighborhood. Felt good watching the development of the store built there and now my deceased and my now deceased mother enjoyed seeing Larry Reed up at Foothill Square promoting its opening. Wow. Okay. Ola Oleana three stars the fruits and veggies always seem rotten. Whole review. That's not good. That's not great at all. One star a guy and this is that we're gonna hear a lot about this guy, by the way, a lot. A guy named Tuan, T-W-O-N,
Starting point is 00:42:51 who has a cashier for checkout 12. I think it's T-Won. Everybody spells it Tuan, though. Everybody spells it T-W-O-N, no dashes, no nothing, no fucking apostrophes, just Tuan. It might be Antoine, and he goes by Tuan. Oh, that might be it too, yeah. Something like that.
Starting point is 00:43:09 He said no, no, no loud to my mom as she was just putting SMT away, I don't know what that is, and he took it offensive and acted weird and rude. What? Lastly, I found his Instagram. What? It's you cyber stalked this man. It's 20 bow. She gave the app. She added him. Yeah. If he's ever rude to you, report him. We're on his own Instagram. What are you talking about? DM this motherfucker telling me shit because this is ridiculous having an
Starting point is 00:43:48 employee like that working at a grocery store okay next up 20 bow you're gonna get a couple more followers I have a feeling Martha one star this is a log one for a grocery store but wow I'll read it all today my sister, and I were trying to pay on the self-checkout this guy Tuan approached us I don't know if she stalked him and found him on it this person said This is where he lives Tuan Oakland. It was like looking shit up. It was like okay Oh, there's a picture of him in his mother fucker. There he is his uniform. There we go He got his you're there's his uniform shirt motherfucker. Hell. Yeah, 20 bow. I see you motherfucker. Yeah one star I'll give you one star
Starting point is 00:44:40 Tuan approached us in a very rude way and said we have too many items We were going to make two transactions my stuff and my sister's going to different houses. I always respect the express checkout if I have lots of items. Hey, respect the express. I asked my sister to take me to the store because I did not want to drive. My high blood pressure was almost 170. That's the reason for using only one shopping cart. They're saying they carted all their shit together, but then they were
Starting point is 00:45:10 paying separately. I can't be pushing an extra cart. I got high blood pressure. I got my blood pressure 170. I was paying. I needed help. Tuan saw me not just once a couple of times and he just ignored me. I waited and he kept ignoring me. Hate that. He wasn't helping another customer, he was just standing there looking at me like I'm not going to help you. But didn't actually say that, I get the impression here. I had to look for the manager to get some help. He moved my items, I was in the middle of a transaction and instead of helping me, he just moved my stuff when I was getting the manager. Never apologized or said something good.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Okay. Listen, you got too much shit, get the fuck out of here. Your hair looks very nice today and I like that dress. Anyway, moving on. Don't even look like you have blood pressure. No, not at all. Your blood pressure looks great. I was upset and confined, convened, confined with something with high blood pressure. Imagine how I was feeling.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Had to relax or I was going to end up in ER. Wow, OK. Hope people who are supposed to help us do their job and management take actions against this kind of behavior toward customers. I was just trying to pay for my groceries to the owners take care take care your business food max is close to my house and I always go to this food Co but not with this kind of employee there's a food max to max food Co damn so Ray orarea, one star, wow. I don't even have words for this. Uh oh, what'd Tuan do now?
Starting point is 00:46:47 But here they are. I was checking out in the cashier by the name Tuan. He did it again. He's a star, man, Tuan's a star. Was absolutely rude to me, this is unacceptable. Treating me like a child, basically arguing and screaming with me like what that's the whole review Like what?
Starting point is 00:47:12 He's got to be so mean to get that three name checks in an act There is more about Tuan He's the star of the show in this review section, man. It's all Tuan all the time. He's doing the most in the store. He is. He's definitely doing too much of something. I don't have that much. You gotta sit down, Tuan.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Take a day off. Tuan doing too much, man. Take some PTO, buddy. Yeah, no shit. Wow. Mesha one star. I went in and there were no carts. I was directed to the manager at register 15,
Starting point is 00:47:49 asked he would call a UC to round a few. I don't know what the fuck that means. Cart rounder, yeah. He tells me, quote, we don't have none. And turns around. That's it, we don't have none. She tried to use some grocery store lingo and he's like, I don't know what that is.
Starting point is 00:48:09 We don't have that. We don't have none. Bye. Very unprofessional as a manager. I won't be going back. Okay, yeah. Wow, holy shit. Then there's a picture of the cart return outside
Starting point is 00:48:20 overflowing with three wide rows of carts well into the driving area. No one's taking them inside. Look at this, I'll show you. Look at all the carts. There's so many. It's well past the parking line. That's all of them, yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:35 It's every cart that they own is outside right now. So that's why Ruby wants to start. Maybe that's where they keep them, you know what I mean? They're all out there, go get them. They're all out there, you know where they're at, lady. The sun cleans them, that's where they keep them. You know what I mean? They're all out there. Go get them. They're all out there. You know where they're at, lady. The sun cleans them.
Starting point is 00:48:48 That's what we like. Yeah, the sun disinfects them. That's how it works. Cooks everything off. Ruby one star. Black dude was so disrespectful. I wonder who that is. I wonder if it's Twan.
Starting point is 00:48:58 Pretty sure it's Twan at this point. The manager didn't do nothing about it. She ain't care about the way he was talking to me while having a three month baby in my arms being so disrespectful to me and my three month baby. My baby hates when people disrespect it. He doesn't play that shit. My baby will cut you. Put some respect on my baby's name You disrespected my baby right now
Starting point is 00:49:39 That's too funny My god that black dude needs to get fired My god that black dude needs to get fired And the manager needs to get fired none of none and you end of the workers are professional they be so rude I'm gonna let it be known by all the people that read these as reviews these is I Want all of Ruby's reviews because they're gone Ruby Oh Ruby, you're fantastic. Ruby, you rock my shit. You rock my shit, Ruby. Aaliyah one star. Horrible company since they don't have enough security.
Starting point is 00:50:13 I waited 30 minutes just to be let into the store. What? Why do you talk? What? Were you early? What time did you get there? What are we talking about? Is there like a bouncer at the door with a clicker?
Starting point is 00:50:24 Not only letting a few in at the door with a clicker? Not only letting a few in at a time? Hold on sweetheart, hold on. You're gonna have to wait until this bitch with her three month old baby gets her infamy. Wait till Twan throws some folks out. Twan's clearing this motherfucker right now, don't you worry about it.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Oh, carts, they're back there. You missed them. They're back behind you back by your car. And then she gives some very, very specific advice at 38 at 38 weeks pregnant. Don't shop here. No, 37, 39. Fine. But 38, you're not going to like it, boy. Let me tell you something. Oh my God. Uh, Latasha, Latasha, one star that was racially profiled by Karen employee on Thanksgiving. She didn't wanna talk to her own race
Starting point is 00:51:12 and I guess she didn't know I was a regular customer. I think she's saying, I'm black and a black woman profiled me. Yeah, I don't know if that's the thing, is it? I don't know. Apparently she's a black woman saying it, said that a black woman could be a Karen, so I guess so. I don't fucking know.
Starting point is 00:51:31 She didn't know I was a regular customer. I brought my dog in the store and the Karen accused me twice, lied directly in my face, not once, but twice, and said my dog took a dump in the store. What? twice and said my dog took a dump in the store. Mind you, it's another lady, her race that's been all over the store. Okay. So somebody else brought a dog and it's shit and everywhere. My dog, not me.
Starting point is 00:51:56 I even asked her to look at the camera. She kept saying, it's okay. I seen the camera. I'm a go. I'm I'm a go clean it up, but your dog did the dump. Like listen, I'm not mad at you. I'm gonna clean it, but it is your dog's shit. Just wanted to let you know.
Starting point is 00:52:14 Your dog did the dump. Your dog did the dump. Liar, liar, liar is where they go on to say here. Dog did the dump. Oh, cry me. Imagine Imagine that imagine sitting there squeezing avocados while this shit's going on. This is hilarious. Then Tuan comes over to make it worse. I see Tuan comes over throws the dog like a football out of the store. This motherfucker out of here. My dog is trained but I did ask the manager to look
Starting point is 00:52:48 at the camera and he would see I didn't even make it on the other side of the store yet and the cold thing about it almost step in the dog I almost step in the dog dump so yes I'm sad guess on the way over to look at it maybe they went over to get a visual on this dog. Come here, let's all look at this dog shit. So now I picture her, her dog, Black Karen, and Tuan all standing around staring at the dog shit, deciding what to do.
Starting point is 00:53:16 This person almost stepped in it because they didn't even know what to do. Arguing about who, it must be a small dog if you brought him to the grocery store, like I'm not gonna bring Benny in the grocery store. And I'm over here knocking on cantaloupes. What are they doing? What is happening right now? Then again cold thing another cold thing about it. Yeah, love saying that cold thing cold thing about it I thought she was walking up to me to apologize the second time. Nooo with a lot of O's.
Starting point is 00:53:49 She was coming up to me to lie again. Other than that, it's a cool store. And also if you go to the meat department, the sausage area and cheese, check the meat because they put back meat that's been sitting out for a while. The color be brown every time I come I have to reach in the back as the sausages of the sausages because they always brown and that area always stinks. True story. Now I believe her. Maybe it's the dog shit. I don't, yeah. Oh my God. Oh wow, this place is amazing. I wanna shop here.
Starting point is 00:54:28 I have to shop here. Next time we go to the Bay Area, we're going here. One star, worst grocery store line, not worst, just worse. Yeah, worse. Worst grocery store line, literally wrapped around the store, wrapped around the store one time. It says one line, but I'm assuming they mean one time. Manager closed his line, asked if there was anyone
Starting point is 00:54:48 to open another line. He said, that's it for tonight. Store not even closing yet. He just said, well, I'm done. Peace out, let's not clear these customers. Got workers just pushing around empty carts doing nothing. Just ghetto. Alejandra, one star. Customer service is awful. Management's a big joke. They never address an issue. Be prepared to even slap one of these people
Starting point is 00:55:15 getting out of pocket. What? You gotta have your slap hand ready here because they're gonna get out of pocket on you and you gotta fucking level off some. Wow. This place, you gotta be ready to fight when you come in here. Yeah. Paintbrushed motherfucker. Holy shit, man. Ada, god damn. It's a fucking war zone. This is amazing.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Ada won star, the cashier was so rude, instead of apologizing for the long wait, this isn't Tuan by the way. No shit. She made a statement about people who smells What so rather than trying to clear people out she was like number three in line you stink like shit The one got longer and I was up next waiting hashtag bitch with attitude Hashtag bitch with attitude. Hashtag. Oh BWA around here. Hashtag bitch with attitude. I fucking love it.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Amazing, she's hashtagging her review. I've never heard of that before. Never. That's never come up. Empress one star here. The employees need training, they are super mean. Never throw, never smile. Throw your food. Throw your food.

And then finally, one star, and this is originally written in Chinese, which I assume why it's one star. I don't think they understood the-star.

I don't know. Designed by a doctor of pelvic physical therapy, through treating women in her pelvic rehabilitation clinic, Dr. Amanda, no last name necessary, recognized the inability of other wands to access the deep hard to reach muscles in the pelvic floor, so she created her own.

Starting point is 01:02:41 Recommended this for how do you know if your pelvic floor is weak? I don't know. Do you piss or do you shit? Maybe that's what I mean. I was very confused here. Recommended this for previous issue with dysparanaia, whatever that, painful intercourse in parentheses. So there are women that have that painful intercourse because there's something wrong in there. I am widowed and not sexually active, but the physical therapist said that the muscle spasms that likely caused the pain could be contributing to bladder issues. There's your answer. Yeah, they piss. I have been using this for a couple of weeks and I'm able to find and apply acupressure
Starting point is 01:03:18 to the sore areas and I believe they are getting better. Wow. I didn't realize I would need lubricant, but pick that up at the drugstore. This old lady coming in and getting some lube is great, by the way. The wand works as it's described. It's easy to use and comes with a storage pouch. You mean you don't put that over the mantle when you're done with it? Yeah, put it up there over the fireplace on the hearth so everyone can take a look at it with the Christmas cards. After I use it and wash it, I put it in a ziplock bag first then in the pouch.
Starting point is 01:03:47 That's more personal than I needed to know somehow, even though we talked about things going up your vagina. Somehow that's too personal. So this just goes in the vag then for the pelvic floor. They say it's for dudes too. I don't know how that works. It's a little pricey for something that probably costs less than a buck to make, but it's worth it to get relief. Brie One Star. I love her title. This is not a vibrator, is her title.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Do not use this. She's like, I am going to come hard tonight, ripped it open and was like, what the fuck, how does this work? I should have read the full description before I purchased the item. Yes, you should have. Even if you did, I don't know what it is. It doesn't say makes you cum though, anywhere in there. But it does say massager.
Starting point is 01:04:38 But all of the other sex toys say mind blowing orgasms that will have you dripping from the ceiling and all this crazy shit. So yeah, that seemed very clinical and medical. The description here. I should have read this full description before I purchased this item. She just saw this goes in my pussy. Click add to cart. That's wild. I thought it was the vibrating model and it had a quick delivery time. So I bought it. I can fuck myself tomorrow with this thing It doesn't vibrate and obviously Amazon won't let me return it even though it hasn't been used and will never be used No, that is your pelvic floor massager
Starting point is 01:05:22 That's your mistaken dildo. Yes, your non-dildo. One star, clearly used and returned. I fucking hope not. Oh no! Gross in all capital letters with one exclamation point. Items such as this should not be able to be returned. They're not! That's your dildo! Right, that's yours.

I can't believe she wrote that on the internet. I can't believe she wrote that on the internet. I can't believe she wrote that on the internet. I can't believe she wrote that on the internet. I got an allergy. All right then Fantastic and then just said yeah I want to get her together with add to cart check and just see what they buy Veneta one star I didn't like it. It don't do nothing. She's saying it was going to. I don't even feel like I'm going to come in. Where do you put the batteries?
Starting point is 01:06:32 Where do you plug it into the computer? What goes on my clip? What's happening? Um, one D one star scary. They say scary. This product should only be purchased if recommended by a physician. The one star scary. Basically scary. Why? Okay. This product should only be purchased if recommended by a physician. It can also cause pain and urine incontinence.
Starting point is 01:06:51 Fortunately, it wasn't long term as I only used it twice. I didn't have a recommendation from a physician to use the wand. Yeah. She beat herself into it. She couldn't hold it any longer. She self-diagnosed a medical problem and bought this thing to jab into it and it didn't work. Now what it did was make me have to piss. Oh my god.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Mike with one star. This does not vibrate in all capital letters. Oh Mike. I don't know why Amazon listed this as a result for vibrators, but but to my horror upon receipt this item does not vibrate right He's like I got something for us for Friday night, and he's like look. It's a medical device. I fucked up bad Well, I got a hum on it to make it vibrate. I'm so sorry. I think we're gonna do good here waste of money I should have read more carefully, but thought it would be perfect The shape of it was so intriguing.
Starting point is 01:07:46 It was so intriguing, so why not? Thought it would be perfect. Papina, one star. Only used it once. This is fucking crazy. It's really awkward. I'm scared of puncturing my vagina wall. With this, since the shape is odd came in a pretty package fuck you bitching about then here's another one one star from Sue I can't figure out
Starting point is 01:08:16 how to use it have no clue how to use I think a doctor has to tell you how to use this thing, otherwise it's not going to make you cum. Joseph here, one star, maybe I am built differently is their title. Nice packaging, nice pamphlet included, but no real instruction on how to use this item. No joy and no refund. Yeah, it's not a sex toy Joseph And finally Kevin again these guys are just confused they just saw they're like that goes in a pussy I guess I don't know these guys just telling on themselves. I bought it for me
Starting point is 01:08:56 Doesn't vibrate, and I don't know how to come with it. I don't understand Then one star finally from Kevin how is performs how is performs ain't stricken it not sticking it ain't stricken it up my butt okay then jam it in your dick man jam it in your urethra then says go for the green one that's all that's the whole review the green green one's beautiful. That's great. It's very nice. It's the nicest one not to stick up your ass, I would say. Holy shit. So we'll stop there because that's crazy shit. It's enough. Men are so dumb. A lot of people did not understand the assignment. In our defense, plenty of women made the same mistake, which
Starting point is 01:09:42 is even funnier. It is for women. I hate that they have men in the description because I don't think it I don't think it's for men at all. No, I think men bought it as a sex toy to deal with with their whatever And then we're like, oh this isn't and they were like, oh you want me to do with this shit? He was like I thought one went up your ass, but now that I'm looking at it I don't know how that works. I don't think that's how this is going. So anyway, there you go everybody. That is your stupid opinions.
