Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, everybody. Welcome back to your stupid opinions. Hey. Hey, hello there. My name is James Petrigallo. I'm here with my co-host. I'm Jimmy Wiseman. Thank you, folks, so much for joining us again for more complaints and grievances.
Starting point is 00:00:30 We even have some international complaints and grievances this week, which is always fun. I like that. And, yeah, we're going to go. We're going to do some roller skating. We're going to eat some chicken. We've got a bunch of stuff to do this week. And I'm excited for it. So let's get right to it.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Well, before we do that, first, if you like the show, number one, tell your friends, post about it. Give us five stars on whatever app you're listening to. It helps a lot. So thank you so much. Let's get into this here. We're going to Australia. Okay. All the way down under here.
Starting point is 00:00:58 We are going to, what the hell kind of address is this? One, two, slash, like a backslash. I don't know how that's in an address. 12-352 South Street in O'Connor Western Australia. That's the state over there. That's the one, if you're not familiar with Australia, that's the one where Perth is in. It's over there in the west there.
Starting point is 00:01:22 So this place, let's find out what it has 4.1 stars on Google here. This is the Rollaways Leisure Center. Yeah. It's an Australian skating rink. All right. An Australian roller skating. We love the American roller skating rink. There's always problems.
Starting point is 00:01:38 I want to see if they're crazy about dress code and all the temperature and all the weird shit that every one of the American ones is weird about. I want to find out if they're the same kind of weird in Australia. Maybe it's just... Rollaway? Rollaway. Rollaway's leisure center here. So I'm very curious to see if they have the same complaints, though, as we do here. Maybe it's just roller skating.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Something about being around the smell of lysol for the disinfectant or something just makes you crazy. and makes you care what young girls are wearing for some reason. This one is from Joe, five stars. Here we go. We love all caps rollaways. Yeah. The tunes are great, perfect for all ages. I've never heard good music that's good for all ages, have you?
Starting point is 00:02:27 The tunes. The tunes. It's either for kids or not for kids. That's it. We love the games, and daughter always has the best time. we just named her daughter. They just called her daughter. It's easier that way.
Starting point is 00:02:41 My aunt calls, you know my uncle Danny. You've met him. They have a son named Danny Jr. And they don't, he hates Jr. despises it. And I can't blame it. It's the worst. If you've listened to crime in sports.
Starting point is 00:02:53 They call him son Danny. I hate that more. What about little Danny? Wouldn't that be easier? I think he would hate that more too. Really? He's a grown-ass adult. He's a 40-year-old man.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Doesn't matter. My grandma. mother always because I had my father's James. Yeah. His father's James. So it was there was a big pop was my grandfather. And my dad was big Jim and I was little Jim always, little Jimmy. Even when I was six foot four, I was little Jimmy, which was hilarious.
Starting point is 00:03:23 I'm six inches taller than my dad. I'm little Jimmy now. This is funny. She made son, son Danny. She made it up. Son Danny. I hate it. Son Danny.
Starting point is 00:03:32 One word. They have lessons to. The staff are so. kind and caring and it's one of our favorite spots to go. What's the daughter think? With my daughter. Matthew, five stars. If old school and retro fun
Starting point is 00:03:48 is your thing, definitely visit Rollaway. The girls had a ball of a time on the skates. A ball of a time. That's an Australian term it has to be. I've heard I had a ball. Had a hell of a time. A ball of a time. Yeah. In America, the girls
Starting point is 00:04:04 are her tits. the girls the girls at a ball of a time it's real bouncy in there there's also food and drinks skating merch and arcade games the whole place just brings you back to a different time
Starting point is 00:04:18 also definitely bring cash as it's preferred yes like a discount yeah yeah it's probably like a discount in New York I know like a lot of the restaurants will give you 5% off if you pay by cash DJ three stars hard to find crowded
Starting point is 00:04:34 and there's young kids falling over everywhere. Not at a roller skating rink, no. I would think these would be skilled Olympic athletes that are just practicing for their gold medal run. The McDonald's was nice, but the ball pit was overrun with children. There's children everywhere. A lot of yelling, screaming, a lot of throwing of balls. That was weird.
Starting point is 00:04:54 The coffee is just okay, and the cooked chips are bland and dry. French fries for the rest of the world. But for America, anyway. But the staff are friendly. The disco lights work well, and the rink is in good condition and well controlled. Your kids will have a great time, and you will love watching them as many parents do. Okay. Revive an old skill set you almost forgot you had.
Starting point is 00:05:19 FYI, I forgot how good it feels to fly around a skating rink, but I'd also forgotten that it really hurts when you fall. I didn't cry, though. That's good, D.J. Yeah. That's a response from the owner. Hi, D.J. Hi, hi, thanks for your review. We're glad you were brave and you didn't cry when you fell over, smiley face.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Right. Now that you've got your old skating skills back, we'd love to see you again. Okay. Three stars. Okay. Decor from the 1970s and so is the setup. I think it's supposed to be. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:53 That's the idea. Yeah. Sure, I can recall being here in 1979 or thereabouts. Prices are modern day, though. does not accept any credit cards. Pretty sure we had a bank card in 1979. Right. To be balanced, conditions are advertised before you enter.
Starting point is 00:06:12 The kids had a nice time, and I know this place services a specialist market. To the owners, how about at least F-P-P-O-S and Wi-Fi. I know what Wi-Fi is. I don't know what the fuck F-P-P-Paz is. It's some sort of, like a kangaroo repellent that you play, like a sound that. that goes through like a wave? I don't know what that is. I think it's electronic financial transaction with a point of sale.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Yeah. Maybe, yeah. That sounds right. A response from the owner. Thanks, Hugh, for taking the time to provide us with... Thanks, Hugh. Thanks, Hugh. Thanks, Hugh.
Starting point is 00:06:49 With a response for taking the time to provide us with a review of our business. This is appreciated. Our venue is certainly popular with the kids who are sure to always have a good time. We know that being a cash-only venue can be inconvenient for some and do apologize, but glad you could see we clearly advertise that. We are cash-only, which is primarily for speed of service so that patrons can get out into the rink faster and enjoy the skating, rather than waiting in lengthy lines, which we previously traveiled. We look forward to hopefully seeing you again soon.
Starting point is 00:07:22 No, first of all. Stay up. An electronic transaction takes three seconds nowadays. This is not, this isn't the fucking 80s where I had to go click, click and take it and then look it up in a book and see if the credit card was good and call somebody. Hand over a carbon copy of the slide machine. No, this is literally you tap it on a thing and then two seconds later. You're good. How is that harder somehow?
Starting point is 00:07:48 Than counting out change. Then that would take more time for the teenagers that you probably have working there to count my change takes longer than for me to tap my card and walk away. It's stupid. And you got to go to the bank with all that change. That's the other thing. Rockingham gives it three stars. It's a very short review and perplexing a little bit. Great place if you like roller skating.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Well, yeah. That's kind of the idea. Yeah. I went to this pool, but I don't really like to swim. Fucking one star. Like, no. Brooke one star. I don't know who this she is, but the she she she's talking about is nasty apparently.
Starting point is 00:08:25 She aggressively stabbed me with a floor star. Stamp floors are Flegel are feeling or peeling is what they're going for. They spelled peeling F-E-E-L-I-N-G-G. Feelinging. Feelinging. That's what fuck me up. She must mean peeling, I assume. And the mini-game sucks like someone put effort into this place.
Starting point is 00:08:52 There's no punctuation, by the way. I'm going to read it like this. She aggressively stabbed me with a stamp. Floors are feelinging off. And the mini game sucks. Like put some effort into this place. The roller skates suck. The bumper isn't there.
Starting point is 00:09:05 And the staff is so bad. They like don't even care. They had like had the audacity to say, bring your own coffee or pay 50 cents for a cup. And the they haven't changed the place for over 20 years. And the stoppers are gone on the skates. You might lose as well as use the old rude lady for the skates. and so overpriced $37 for a stupid experience. If you go bring your own skates like $11 for soggy sad chips,
Starting point is 00:09:34 don't go. Their horrible service and everything sucks and the staff are show-offs. Fantastic. Holy shit. Well, you don't know how to use periods. So I just, your whole shit is thwarted, right? There's show-offs. And she aggressively stabbed me with a stamp.
Starting point is 00:09:51 She got stamped like you get stamped to go in places. She said aggressively stabbed me. with it. It's a fucking stamp, you idiot. Brooke, you're a dummy. I'm sorry. Australia, cast her out into the ocean. Fuck her. You don't need any more Brooks. Stabbed with a stamp. Yeah. Floater over here. Florida, she'll fit in graders, wherever. Just America. I'm even taking Florida. I'm not even taking the piss out of Florida here.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Melanie, one star. Pictures on the internet make it look good. But when you get there and walk in, it smells funny and the staff aren't. very nice to newcomers. You can't smell pictures. That's about things. You can't. No, you can. I wish you could sometimes. Got the blades and it was missing a wheel. You kind of need those. You need all your wheels,
Starting point is 00:10:38 probably. I think that they're set up for a certain amount of wheels. Was not very impressed. Also, there was no soap in the ladies' toilets. Well, that's because they go by the sink, silly. You don't put soap in a toilet. That would be stupid. It would be a waste. You can fish it out of there. We'll not be going again.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Okay. I'm kidding, obviously. fucking Australia, relax. Emma, one star. It was terrible. Is this another no punctuation? Jesus Christ. There's one period in this entire fucking paragraph. Okay, one star.
Starting point is 00:11:09 It was terrible. There, wrong there. Was a little boy. Maybe in Australia it's different. It's terrible. There was a little boy about 10, threatening to knock me over and said, I didn't have a mum and was threatening me in general.
Starting point is 00:11:23 and his family way older than me were ditching balls at me why I was trying to skate. This is a child. I feel bad for making fun of their fucking poor English. And it was obvious I didn't like it because I kept sitting down and the boy also kept cutting me off
Starting point is 00:11:39 along with calling me names and kick the back of my sister's skate and trust me it wasn't a joke or an accident. Period. That's the first period. Yeah, not funny. So some other kids are being horrible dicks to this little girl
Starting point is 00:11:53 and throwing shit at her apparently. And it's not funny. And fucking with her sister. And it's not funny. This family, including the boy, were friends with the owners. It is just like America. That's what they say.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Oh, they let their friends do whatever they want in here. Then says, thanks, Tony. Sorry, I did not mean the owner. It was the lady that works there that was friends with them. It was me and my two friends. What does reimbursement mean?
Starting point is 00:12:16 That's from a response from the owner. Here's a response from the owner. Hi, Emma. Why didn't you come and see me? And I would have sorted out the situation on the spot. He's got a boomerang just for that to like take out. That's what they do in Australia.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Anything where there's a bunch of kids, they got a boomerang, whack. The kid falls down. He's just got a build a didgerie do and we'll bring it. And it's it. We're over. We're good at that point, right? So I would have sorted it out on the spot. As a note, I do not make friends with customers as it only leads to problems.
Starting point is 00:12:44 If you come and see me, I will reimburse you for your bad experience. Believe me when I say I'm absolutely not for this kind of behavior. my sincere apologies, kind regards, Tony. That's nice. That's the thanks, Tony. Yeah, one of the ladies there. That was her friend. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Justine, one star, was really excited for my children to go here for a birthday. Really disappointed when rollaway employees decided to play dodgeball with too many people. So many children were hurt. Okay. What's the visual in your head right now? Is it a C, like a Civil War battle? battlefield but with kids on the ground moaning. Dodge balls.
Starting point is 00:13:25 But yeah, dodge balls bouncing and rolling into a corner. Yeah. Unattended. Many children were. Yeah. Many children are just writhing. Bent backward. Yeah, the medical staff going from body to body trying to fix them.
Starting point is 00:13:41 I got a live one. Yeah. Like the, like when Homer Simpson got the trampoline and all the kids were all in infirmary in the yard. Oh, the boat coming back. at the Titanic and bopping people with the ore. It was alive. Plop, plop, plop. Crackin, one star.
Starting point is 00:14:01 This place smells and looks like there's been no change since 1979. It's sweat, man. People stink. I would think the owner would go, thank you. That's what we're going for. We did it. We knew we had a rough run there in about the 90s, the 2000s. People were tired of it, but I said, shit's going to come around and be retro soon.
Starting point is 00:14:19 You wait and see. Watch out for that. I'm not going to re, then I got to refurbish it back to retro. I think I'm going to do that. Play smells and looks like there's been no change. Rink is worn out and uneven and quote, premium skates that you pay extra for are a joke. They're a joke. Fucking joke, bra.
Starting point is 00:14:36 The front axle on my first three pairs weren't aligned and had to be changed. Oh. That's weird. So you just went careening off into the wall. Is it an alignment? And where did you go? I didn't know you got an alignment job on those. The staff are unprofessional.
Starting point is 00:14:50 and when I asked for a better pair of skates, I was given a dusty pair with the explanation that because these hadn't been used in a while, they should be okay. Skates regenerate themselves, really. He's been sitting on the shelf. They fix up when you, yeah, you need rest is what it is.
Starting point is 00:15:07 That's the thing. I will not be returning to this venue. Toe cutter. Okay. That's a weird name. Toe cutter, one star. Rink skate surface hasn't been painted. and is worn down to the bare concrete.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Carpet inside venue. That would hurt if you fall on it because it's shiny. It's concrete? Concrete under there, yeah, on the skating floor. And I would assume put a paint and like a finish on it, like a lacquer type, not a lacquer, but like a whatever, sealant. Like epoxy or some shit? Yeah, yeah, like paint and then epoxy, like a garage floor, except you wouldn't put down those grippy things before it dries is the only difference. Shouldn't you put wood down?
Starting point is 00:15:48 Wouldn't you wouldn't wood be the best for this? Yeah. You would imagine, but I bet it's way more expensive to make a floor out of wood probably. And I bet that wears out fast. And it wears out fast. You got to epoxy it once every, what, since 79 probably, once every four or five decades. So the carpet inside the venue is worn and patchy and looks disgusting. This is not retro.
Starting point is 00:16:10 It is just old. A tired and worn out rink that has been let go. Also, some of the reviews on here are not genuine. They're not right. The five stars. Clint one star This venue is an absolute All caps
Starting point is 00:16:25 Joke It's a joke It's a joke man What is it with Canada And Australia They love calling things a joke Yeah Non-American English-speaking
Starting point is 00:16:35 countries love calling shit a joke Incorrect opening times and days Lack of maintenance And cash only No Eft Poss I guess that's gonna be I got no F-Poss Yeah
Starting point is 00:16:47 Highly illegal Oh, is that illegal? I don't know. You have to take my card. I don't know. Venue and owners are being investigated. Yeah. Are they?
Starting point is 00:16:58 By who? You? What are we talking about here? I'm going to investigate. I'm going to look into this. Stacey, one star. Not happy with the way my kids were treated by staff. And when my daughter wanted to get off the rink instead of helping her, they were rude and wouldn't
Starting point is 00:17:12 allow her and resulted in her breaking her arm because she was knocked over. Hold on. she wanted to get out of the rink and they said no and kept like pushing her back in like bouncers you got to stay in you got to say you paid for fucking 30 minutes kick it in there and then she broke her arm we will not allow your parents to throw their money away holy shit no response from the owner hello stacey thank you for your review however we have no record of this incident occurring at our venue at all question mark without having been able to speak to you directly to address your concerns and with no contact detail provided. We've asked our staff and none are aware of, are aware, unfortunately, of this occurring. We'd like to talk to you further and clarify you and invite you to contact us directly. Thank you. You're saying we fucking broke your kid's arm. I'd like some proof of that, please. Thank you very much. Yeah, it never happened. Liar. Lying Aussie Twat is what she said. That's it. He said, oh, I can't, I didn't hear it. No. Okay, one star. Fun roller rink. However,
Starting point is 00:18:17 They refuse to give first aid unless you pay per Band-Aid. That is awesome. We don't care if you bleed to death. Per Band-Aid is amazing. I've never heard of anything being charged like that. No help offered despite seeing a 10-year-old with blood running down his leg. Holy shit. Response from the owner.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Thank you, Rachel, for your valuable feedback. We are very disappointed to hear about your experience on this occasion. but this is important for our management team to understand where we need to improve and actually put systems in place to address the issues raised. Yeah, don't charge per Band-Aid probably is a bad. It's a bad business policy. Seems like bad form, I would say. And then finally, real short, Milo one star, smelly and old needs work.
Starting point is 00:19:07 No punctuation. Leave me alone. Leave me alone. Fuck this place. So, okay, we've gone to the skating rink. We've gotten ourselves a good sweat going. Yeah. We got blood all over us.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Our arms are broken. What are we going to do now? Let's go do our laundry, Jimmy. What do you say? I'm sweaty and old and I need work. Let's go. Let's go do our laundry at Spotless Solutions Laundromat. This has 3.7 stars out of 237 reviews.
Starting point is 00:19:35 This is at 7120 South Yates Boulevard in Chicago. Okay. Okay. Olanderian, Orlandoan. Okay. Five stars. Very professional. Most machines working perfectly.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Most of them. You know you've lowered your expectations when you're like, most of the shit actually works. Amazing. The majority, six out of ten are going. Wow. Working perfectly with different sizes to accommodate your need and pocket. The business premises and the machines are always cleaned every hour. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:08 I'm not buying this. The machines are cleaned out. I've never seen an employee of a of a laundromat. Have you? Not one. They just run on their own. They're like a ghost ship just out in the ocean. The rudderless just going.
Starting point is 00:20:21 They're just people offering change, right? Because they don't have to do anything. That's the idea. And they have machines for that. Oh, there's that too, yeah. And for the detergent, too, there's no reason for a human, but they have a door always. Right. Which I figure behind that door, it's like Frank from always sunny in the basement, basically.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Like, that's what it is, like some poker game where they're playing Russian roulette or some shit. That's what I'm picturing is going on down there. It's like the deer hunter. But they don't come out ever. So who knows? By the way, I just saw that laundromats have a 94% success rate. In investment? And if you open a laundromat, only 6% of them fail.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I've heard that about self-use self-wash car washes too. Not like the just the ones with the spray guns. Some people make a shitload of money. They never fucking go out of business those places. This person goes on to say, I love the way this place is managed. I will visit again. It's not like he went to Disneyland and it's a laundromat. A management's amazing.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Thanks. Response from the owner. Thank you so much. I really, really appreciate your positive energy. Indeed. Okay. Haddy, five stars. A place where you can go to wash and dry your clothes.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Is that what a laundromat is? Thanks, Hattie. That's good to know. They have different size machines at different prices. You have to buy a laundry card in order to use the machines. They are open Sunday through Monday, 6.30 a.m. to 10 p.m. It is always someone there to help you anytime that you need help. No punctuation at all.
Starting point is 00:21:51 There's always someone to help. And the response from the owner is just thrilled that you had a great experience at our laundromat. Well, I've never walked away from, I've had plenty of laundromat experience, never walked away from it like, man, that was awesome. Fucking laundromat. Like high five and my friends, fucking most of the machines worked. Hell yeah. This is weird. Yeah, this is great.
Starting point is 00:22:14 They're great. Fuck. Four stars from beauty. Love the facilities, but there's no AC. Well, there's never AC in those places. In fucking Phoenix, there was no AC in those places. The one on 19th Avenue I used to have to go to. They'd leave the front and back door open and they'd think that was a cross breeze.
Starting point is 00:22:33 Let that blow through? Holy shit. Horrifying when it's 110 degrees outside and there's 40 dryers going at the same time. I would hope that on days when it's over 90, there would be some kind of air. I would hope so too. The response is, thank you for your wonderful review. Your satisfaction
Starting point is 00:22:51 is top priority and your feedback's greatly appreciated. In other words, bring your sweaty ass over here and put your laundry in and give us your change. Then Josette, same thing, three stars. Need AC because there's no air in there. That was two months ago. Response from the owner, we just purchased
Starting point is 00:23:08 a new unit and are installing it now. Great. Our super hot dryers made it challenging for the rooftop air conditioners. Because it's hot in there. It gets extra hot. Okay. Victoria, two stars. I've been in the laundry.
Starting point is 00:23:24 I've been in the laundry. Yeah. And not and. And the alarm be buzzing for two hours. Where is the help? It's sad. Okay. The alarm's been buzzing.
Starting point is 00:23:39 That's somebody else's shit, man. Leave it alone. we as people need to do better and stop shorting ourselves. Okay. It's a laundromat. What the fuck are you talking about? Put some on your headphones and wait for your fucking laundry and shut up. What are you doing?
Starting point is 00:23:57 What do you care what's going on? Maria, two stars. Some dryers are inoperable at times, causing others to wait, watching the attendant mop the floor with dirty mop water that smelled like old garbage on a hot day. Oh, Jesus. That's fun. Great. Thanks a lot. And they're mopping the floor with that. Just dirty water, slushing it back and forth.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Steve in one star, I've been coming, I have been coming to the same location since I moved in the area in 2016. My washing experience was just okay because I was at the laundromat for almost three hours washing, drying, and folding clothes. But actually, this is ridiculous. Absolutely no television was working while I and the other. customers were there. This isn't 1987. Right. When there was a TV that you'd all sit right. You have a phone, I hope. This was six months ago. Yeah, the problem is, watch whatever you want, literally.
Starting point is 00:24:50 They would have to have cable there because they can't do bunny ears anymore and just get a signal out of the air. No. And if you have a TV, then you have to have people there watching to make sure nobody steals your TV. That's the other problem. Okay. If it's possible, please get the TV's serviced or I will be looking to give my money for washing to another business owner. that has working televisions to entertain their paying customers while we are washing. Three, four exclamation points. Sincerely hope this issue is addressed. No response from the owner. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Nothing on that one. Truth, one star. This review is for the continued neglect of the facilities. You are the only laundromat for miles so you're making the money. Turn the TVs on so we can watch television. Get some more TVs. How much is a TV? $400.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Common sense. Your customer do not want to sit in quiet. Add a jukebox for some music. A jukebox? Yeah. I've never been to a laundromat with a jukebox before. This isn't a dive bar. This is a social hour.
Starting point is 00:26:03 People want to wash their clothes and go to fuck home. Get the fuck out of there. Yeah. This is time they don't want to be here. Buy eight more carts, eight more, not 10, not six, eight. I know what you need, trust me. People are fighting for cart use and it's ridiculous. Fix the dryers and washers, rubber missing, won't close properly and out of water.
Starting point is 00:26:23 You have trial-sized detergent for $4 to $5. Why? Finally, you have a gumball machine for children with a bunch of old stale discolored candy. For Pete's sake, invest in your community that invests in you. We are loyal to this establishment. It can all disappear. Yeah, 94% are successful. You better figure it out.
Starting point is 00:26:44 All of this cushy washing machines and dirty water mopping. It could all be gone for you, people. You have an entire shopping mall to yourself. Invest. I don't think that's a good sign. The only thing left in the strip mall is a fucking laundromat. Invest in your employees if you don't know it's hard to find great help. Most respectfully, your client and neighbors of spotless solutions.
Starting point is 00:27:07 71st Yates, Chicago. Right. Just from us, from all of us here. Holy shit. What do we got here? Felicia, one star. I am here in the laundromat. That's nice.
Starting point is 00:27:21 She's leaving it as she sits. I'm here right now. I am here. I was asking the employee on shift about one of the machines that I am using because there's no water coming down on my clothes. The employee tells me to go to the sink and pour water into the machine to watch my clothes. Treat it like a toilet and just pour a bucket in there.
Starting point is 00:27:40 Yeah, a toilet that doesn't work. That's great. That is wonderful. What the fuck? My clothes came out dry and unclean. Yeah, because you didn't have enough water. It's got to be a constant flow of water that goes in there. My clothes came out dry and unclean.
Starting point is 00:27:54 The employee, which doesn't want to give her name, is a liar. She's a liar. Which doesn't want to give her name is a liar, which she told the owner, whoa, okay. This sentence is great. The employee, which doesn't want to give her name as a liar, which she told the owner, myself and another customer overloaded the machines, a disgrace in the black community because of her nasty demeanor and not willing to assist. People like her give this laundromat a bad name. Bad name, this laundromat. Francois gives one star.
Starting point is 00:28:30 I am your customer. Okay. Hi, customer. I am your customer many years ago. I never complain. Today I have two, two, both the spellings of two. I don't think they knew which one it was. So I have two of your machine do not work. And I told the lady and she is unable to help me. Oh, the picture is of an Asian woman. Okay, this makes sense now. The machine do not wash before go to the rinse. I have to put in, I have to put another money. I have to put in another money. No one born in this country says another money. That's a foreigner for sure. another money to other machine so I use three-time my card to wash oh no nice three-time your card to wash whenever I come here I have $50 for wash and dry $50 dude you can do that's like 10 10 laundries is you could buy a washer and dryer yeah get a used one they have those I used to I used to do that when I was I had used washers and dryer some of used appliance stores. $50 to wash your laundry each time is every time you got to go wash that's crazy. Yeah. If that's once a week, where are we talking? $200 a month. Just be stinky
Starting point is 00:29:45 for like three months and then get your own shit. That's what I advise. What is the problem you have to put some competent a competent person. Person with two ends and an E at the end, which like I said, I don't think English is this person's first language. So I give credit for knowing anything because I can't speak any Asian language at all. If not, you will lost more customer. Thank you. Yeah, tenses are hard for foreigners. My grandmother had a problem with that, too.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Letitia, one star. I was in your establishment on 824-23. My machine wouldn't start. Your worker had to jump it off. Okay. Jump it off. I didn't know you could jump start a washing machine. Did you pop the clutch and push it down a hill?
Starting point is 00:30:30 How did you get it to start? He had a jump box in there. He spun it. like an old airplane fucking propeller in the front there to get it going. How'd that happen? Drop the gerbils in.
Starting point is 00:30:40 It'll get it going. It gets it. They run. The hamsters like to get it moving. I'm looking for your, oh, after the machine stopped, my clothes did not spend.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Spend? Spin, maybe. I'm looking for your worker. She disappeared. Nowhere to be found. And nowhere is K-N-O-W. Where to be found. I never.
Starting point is 00:31:04 ever, ever had a bad experience like this before, you need to add more chairs at this establishment. And I want to sit. And I want to sit. At least she doesn't want a TV. She's not going crazy here. I have a bad back and sometimes I have to sit in my car, which I used to do all the time at the laundromat anyway, just because it's nicer than the laundromat. Yeah. It's clean in my car.
Starting point is 00:31:26 I know everything that's in there. I haven't washed in a laundromat in so long. But that is a really terrible place every time. 2018 before right before we moved into our one house that we put the studio in and all that. Yeah, I was fucking poor a shit, dude. That was, and
Starting point is 00:31:42 that was blood money to lose, to use, to go the laundromat. That was like, oh man. Ashley, one star, clean laundromat. Sometime the dryer doesn't dry my clothes all the way, which is most dryers. Then there's an update. Oh, update. While at the laundromat, my machine was
Starting point is 00:32:00 spinning for 12 minutes without any water visible in the machine. Oh, does she know to go to the sink or not? Yeah. She doesn't know you got to do it yourself. You got to jumpstart it, man. While washing white clothes, the attendant told me the water pressure was low for the machine and switched it to warm. I asked if he can restart the machine because my white clothes won't be clean if washed for 15 minutes on warm. He said he can't help me. I don't know how to do that. It is what it is, man. I then explained the situation again. he fanned me off. Get out of here.
Starting point is 00:32:32 You know what that is. I've never heard it put like that, but you know exactly what that is. Fan me off. And walked off telling me my clothes will be clean. Your clothes are clean. Don't worry about it. Response from the owner.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Please tell everyone. Tell your friends. Okay. Misha one star. If I could give this place zero stars,
Starting point is 00:32:56 I would. I would. She did it. Yes. Half of their machines do not work properly. I'm currently using a machine with no water. That's a common problem, this machine with no water. I wish I could help them because I know what to do. And so do they, myself and another customer, are pouring buckets of water into the machines to get them to work. I can't make this up. That is terrible. Pouring buckets of water. pouring. My detergent isn't coming down either. She's like looking up there. Where's that shit? I can't, my clothes are still not clean after wasted time and detergent. The rinse cycles do not work properly. Most of my clothes look dusty because fabric softener isn't rinsing completely. Not sure why the attendant is here.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Not fixing shit. They can't refund or fix their machines when they malfunction. Management is setting up the attendants to fail. I've been coming here for five. years and this will be my last time horrible double exclamation point fuck james one star save your money they require you to use a sort of in-house laundry debit card that will only accept deposits of ten dollars at a time i remember having to do that too you have to buy the card that goes into the detergent machines and only let ten dollars at a time yes my the one i went to was five because it was a really shitty neighborhoods. It was five. That was 19th Avenue, Northern.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Five. And hope that that's enough. Next to the head shop and the Mexican restaurant where there's roaches on the floor while you're eating. The head shop. Tobacco Pipes Plus, I think that was or some shit like I don't even remember what it was. Fucking old trails. The place where they sold crack pipes basically.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Yeah, yeah. Yeah. They got crack pipes on tons of them. And bongs, but crack pipes. This essentially forces you to lose money if your intent was to go once and never again. Yeah, if you got like two bucks left on that card. I remember having a bunch of cards. It was like a dollar on this one.
Starting point is 00:34:57 There's $3 on that one. I'd bring them all and it was a mess. You end up getting stuck with a laundry card you don't want to use, but have $5 to $15 on. Washing machines are also relatively expensive, near $5, and the dryers are only free the first couple of times. How hell does that mean? I don't know what that means.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Get a free dry special. By the end, like, Sometimes. If they're, yeah, I don't know. By the end. It sounds like somebody put money in it and walked away and didn't press the button
Starting point is 00:35:26 as all. Yeah. Sometimes it's free. Yeah. You got time because someone left it on there because they didn't want to wait anymore. By the end, you're out almost $20 if you have any type of load. I hate what my load costs that much.
Starting point is 00:35:40 It's a trap to get repeat business instead of just being better. Yeah. Yeah, sure. That's fine. Here we go. One star. Don't put any. change in the chip machine because the lady with the loks in her head or locks in her head
Starting point is 00:35:55 LOCS. So yeah, I know, but it could be easy ease sunglasses too. You know, that's what I was going for. In her head will give you a hard time refunding your money and we'll walk around the laundromat talking about you because the machine that accepts coins won't give you what you paid for. Just a heads up. She'll walk around muttering about you. This fucking ass all over.
Starting point is 00:36:20 here this fucking machine. Money back for the lays. That's awesome. Mark one star. This is the worst laundromat in Chicago. Another one with no fucking punctuation. This is the worst laundromat in Chicago. Their machines take money off of your card.
Starting point is 00:36:36 They charge you for drying and supposed to be washing or dry free. They only have crackheads working here that always look like they got high before they came to work. The place is filthy and dirty. I highly recommend don't waste your time in this place and it got roaches. Boom. And it got roaches, motherfucker. That's right. So crackheads that looked like they got high just before.
Starting point is 00:36:58 If I had to work in a laundromat. I would be so stowed. I would be on everything I could get my hands on and anything I can get my hands on. That has to be the most boring job of all time. That's like working at a mall kiosk for some shit nobody wants. You know what I mean? Everything. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Yeah. So they're not, they're not. they're not too happy. Mikey, one star. No professional work here, just lady in the morning. No professionals, just a lady. Just lady. I didn't see a single male professional in here.
Starting point is 00:37:35 He's a guy. We just call him lady. That's how it's his nickname. Machines don't work. They're old and it smells like pee. Yeah. Okay. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:46 That's the mop water. That would be your mop water. sir. Raphael one star. I asked the supposed manager to use the bathroom. And she replied, bathrooms are for customers only and rolled her eyes. Even after making her fully aware that I had four bags of laundry.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Yeah, I'm about to wash laundry, lady. Yeah. I got a pee first. If this water starts coming out, if I got to fill a bucket, I'm going to piss my pants. You know what I'm saying? This lady went back to eating as if I said nothing. She just ignored and took a bite.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Yeah. I asked to speak to the manager and she replied, I am the manager. I am. What now? I'm hurt. That's it. I asked her name and she replied, I'm not giving you my name and rolled her eyes again. Fuck you.
Starting point is 00:38:36 That's what she said. Call me the manager. If my girl didn't have to be at work in a few hours, I would have left immediately. So she had to go to work so he was doing her laundry for her to get the work. That's nice of him. And so I just sat there doing the wash. folded my clothes and left without ever using the bathroom. This guy, his kidneys are falling out of his body because he held it in for like three and a half hours.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Poor guys. Have you seen those events where they make you drink a bunch of water and see who pees last? You will die if you can't pee too long. It's probably not great for you, I assume. Response from the owner, thank you for the review. Thank you for that review. where I rolled my eyes. Alyssa one star,
Starting point is 00:39:25 ghetto, exclamation point. The owner is very ignorant and said she doesn't like to talk to customers when something goes wrong. Well, who does, really? Some of the laundry attendants smoke in and outside the laundromat while kids are around.
Starting point is 00:39:41 And there's one laundry, well, it smells like pee and mop water anyway. What's the difference? Cigarettes are probably a better smell. Does I say, it's probably just to get a good, smoke some cigarettes. It stinks in here. Smok them if you got them.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Let's do it. Yeah. And there's one laundry attendant that will argue back and forth when he's in the wrong. We'll never go here again. So there's several employees that are all pretty surly. It sounds like. Christina one star only gave it one star because no stars was not an option. That's a little wordy.
Starting point is 00:40:11 You fucked it up. This is one of the most ghetto laundromats around. Wash my clothes using the $9 machines. And my clothes came out. soaked, told the clerk that was on duty, and all she could say is that we use too much soap, which obviously causes clothes to be wetter. You know how that is. Soap attracts water to a garment.
Starting point is 00:40:31 You know how that goes. I doesn't let the water ring out. No, no. Would not give us another machine. Instead just said it was our fault and for us to go to the sink and ring our clothes out by hand. Just go over there and twist them. Fill a bucket up while you're there. There's somebody else that needs that.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Thank you. Oh, boy. You got to twist it, Chet. Twist it. Like, what really, what was the point? Even when as far as calling the cop saying my husband was causing a scene, don't bother going there. Fine. And the response from the owner, thank you for feedback.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Oh, all right. Latrice, one star. I burnt my arm on one of their dryers. Second top dryer from the change machine. Oh, she's giving you a locale here. That one's the hot one. It's the hot one. there's a sign that states dry gets hot use medium setting okay um did you do that or not packed a capacity
Starting point is 00:41:29 with customers using every washer and dryer after a gentleman finished i decided to use it while putting my last bit of clothes in i burned my arm i told the man who worked there and reeked of marijuana that i wanted to file an incident report again if i don't blow it in your face you are lucky if I'm working at a fucking laundromat. This stoner, what'd he say? This stoner, I wanted to file an incident report and wanted to speak to the owner. Rude me, he tells me, quote, you don't want to go against those millionaires. Nah.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Huh? They broke my spirit already. Yeah, you don't want to go against them. You want to just go smoke out back? You'll forget all about it. That's what I do. I've tried to quit. They make me work here.
Starting point is 00:42:11 They come back. I'm hearing every day. I don't know what happened. Who the hell does he think he is? Is what they go on to say? they had the nerve to try to get me to sign a form stating I used the dryer even after I put my clothes in trying to make it my fault. Apparently this was a problem before I used the dryer because there was a sign there. I didn't sign a damn thing and hope the owners look into this matter because I will stop at nothing until they do so and he's disciplined.
Starting point is 00:42:41 You are pissing in the wind, lady. I think you're not getting shit. Okay, Bonnie one star, got to the laundromat at 1045. Employee named Robert tells me they are closed after I bring my basket in, although the sign says closes at 12 a.m. Then refuses to give me manager contact or corporate information. Then he says he wants to go home early and can't wait to close. He's got some good ass weed at home. I'm getting out of here.
Starting point is 00:43:10 I got a bumble date showing up at my house. I got to run. It is. We are cutting. close. Listen and weed. Fuck your laundry. I mean,
Starting point is 00:43:17 fuck your laundry. Yeah. Horrible customer service. Do not recommend this place at all. We just make you get a bucket. So just go home and do it in your sink. It's the same shit. Jasmine one star.
Starting point is 00:43:27 Warning. Okay. Oh boy. Very rude old man evening staff member hates women. All caps. Hates him. Hates women. Old man.
Starting point is 00:43:37 Very rude. You can't just say that. Locks paying customers out at 8 p.m. And makes up his own last watch. and closing hours. Oh, okay. Management is totally aware and has posted signs
Starting point is 00:43:50 for their customers, but he still locks the doors. He specifically talks down, yells, turns away, and humiliates women customers and extra friendly and inviting to men customers. Okay?
Starting point is 00:44:01 I saw him invite a non-paying customer that was a man into use the bathroom because he was about to pee by the dumpster. Well, that was self-preservation, really. So I'd like it to not smell like piss as I walked on my car. Use this.
Starting point is 00:44:13 women generally won't piss by the dumpster if you don't let him use the bathroom. They're different. That's the thing. And not even two seconds after the man was in the door, two younger females reached for the door handle, and he immediately jumped in their faces, stood between the two young ladies and said aggressively, where are you going? Three times. We got laundry? You're fucking laundry? Where are you going? Then pointed to the blue sign and made them read it like they were slow. He's a hypocrite.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Records of these events and operating on behalf. half of this location or overall business would be interesting. Putting the color of a person's skin aside, recording a staff member like this and posting them online would easily go viral overnight. Not really, because there's bad employees everywhere. It has to be egregious and there has to be something that's jocable for it to go viral. If it's just a fucking... A guy being a bad employee.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Nobody gives a fuck. No one cares. That happens all the time. There has to be a fist fight. Yeah. P gives one star. No, they have a cockroach infection. Infection.
Starting point is 00:45:19 Not an infestation, an infection. They're infected with cockroaches. Oh, my God. And there's a little cockroach emoji there. I sat my food down and they was on it. Oh, my God. That is an infection. They come from everywhere.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Yeah. I folded my clothes at the dryer will never be back. My body felt some type away with a sick face. I don't blame you. That's the funniest way to use this. Oh, my God. Renardo one star. It's hot as Eva in here.
Starting point is 00:45:51 And where, but it's a capital E, so it's Eva. That's I do that on purpose. She is hot. That's what I'm saying. He made it. He made it a woman. That's why I was like, Eva, I guess, if it's a capital. Where the AC people can't get breath, y'all.
Starting point is 00:46:07 I can't catch my breath. You can't get a breath, you all. Can't breathe. breath is what he said. Can't breath you all to get the AC up and running. It's 100 degrees all week. That doesn't sound good at all. Myesha one star.
Starting point is 00:46:23 Be careful using your card. They charge a credit card fee that is not posted. They have roaches and poor customer service. All right. We're almost done with this one here. Taisha one star. One worker was very rude and disrespectful. He said he was the manager.
Starting point is 00:46:36 He was dark skin with glasses. Told me I can only use three dryers, but I had seven bags of glasses. clothes tried to tell me how to dry. And if I didn't dry my clothes the way he said, he was going to go in the back and turn the dryer off. I will not be going back there. There was no tissue in the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:46:53 Ask him for some. He said they don't have tissue for the bathroom. We have to bring our own. Bring your own toilet. Bring your own tee bathroom. That's excellent. That is fucking amazing. This one is awesome too.
Starting point is 00:47:07 Jamie one star. Unprofessional. They have the freaking heat on in August. The change machine. is down. The washers are raggedy and then they don't even have assistance to help or answer questions. Man, then they
Starting point is 00:47:20 say, response from the owner, thank you for your review. We try very hard to provide a positive experience for a daunting chore, laundry. Colin and everything. Thank you for reviewing this negatively. Tell everyone, we're tired of doing this. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:47:38 no shit. And then Jamie finally, one star. It's nowhere like it used to be. I hate to say it, but it was better when the Asians had it because this new black owner is clearly all about the money and not for the people. And it's definitely a black guy saying that. I hate to say it, but the Asians know their laundry. You know what I'm saying? I hate to say it. I don't want to give the Asians any praise. I know. I don't want to take down our own people here, but them fucking Asians know their laundry. I'm just saying that's so funny. They've only been doing that in this country for 150 years. They know what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:48:12 to say it. Yeah, I hate to say it. And yeah, they get laundry. Italians, we get barbershops. That's how it works. This is the, we all have our roles here. Vegas Popeyes, let's go to. We'll move away. Let's go to Las Vegas and go get us some Popeyes Louisiana kitchen here. Where's it at? I enjoy. This is 8132 Las Vegas Boulevard South Las Vegas. So there you go. the Louisiana inspired fast food chain known for its spicy fried chicken biscuits and sides in case you're not from this country. 3.3 stars at a 745 reviews. At a Popeye's people go there specifically because they love it. How do you fuck up Popeyes that bad? Vern gives five stars. Absolutely one of the best Popeyes I've ever been to.
Starting point is 00:49:04 When you go there, tell her Washington said hello. Tell her. Her. Anybody who works there with tits, tell her. It looks female to you. Tell her. She is one of the nicest people I've ever met. She is.
Starting point is 00:49:18 Who the hell are you talking about? Miss Popeye. I have best customer service ever. Does she hand you a bag with chicken in it? Evidently. Wow. Timothy five stars. One of the better run Popeyes I've been to in a while. The service was fast and efficient and the food was excellent.
Starting point is 00:49:36 I'm not accustomed to getting such. service in Milwaukee. They're from Milwaukee going to Vegas. For a second, that threw me, and I'm like, oh, wait, they're in town from Milwaukee. Gotcha. Tim, three stars. Decided to try two kinds of wings, signature and ghost pepper. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:53 Didn't care for the signature. They reminded me of Extra Crispy at KFC, and I'm an original recipe fan. As far as the ghost pepper, I was expecting something hot, but there was zero zip to it. None. Zip. I was looking for zip. Look, it's a lot zippier. This isn't it?
Starting point is 00:50:12 I'm not a guy looking for something to burn my mouth off, but I did want some heat, and this didn't have any. However, the sauce did have a different taste that I liked. Okay, that's a three star. Little this, little of that. Diane, one star. I am a handicapped woman ordering Popeye's chicken. I would have gotten to Kentucky fried because they're cheaper, but because I wanted the spicy. and then the Uber driver that was picking it up said they had no spicy and I have to wait long time before I could get it,
Starting point is 00:50:42 but they had mild and accepted it and spent $60 on a day-old chicken. So frankly, all they said to me was I get a free side if I can come in there and pick it up. You've got to be kidding me. I am going to blast you out. I'm going to blast you out. This is not over. I'm going to blast you out. This is not over.
Starting point is 00:51:02 That is rude day-old chicken, not even the one I wanted. There's, I mean, good God, it's over. Good God, it's over. Wow, no punctuation. Oh, boy. Just going on a chicken rant. A day old chicken. Wow.
Starting point is 00:51:19 That's a very small chicken, a day old chicken, tiny. Not very good to eat. Michelle, one star. The person working on the night of Christmas Eve was so unprofessional. While in the drive-thru, we heard him being rude to the person in front of us and then later to us for asking a simple question and ordering in general because it's Christmas Eve. Right. What's wrong with you.
Starting point is 00:51:40 What are you doing here? Go eat with your families, you fucking losers. Sorry your family's such horrible cooks you go and do this. Let us fucking let us go home so we can have shitty food. Nobody was being rude or condescending to him. We and the people in front of us were presenting common
Starting point is 00:51:57 decency in our interactions. It was unnecessary. Blair gives one star. The manager was very rude. Uh-oh. Okay. I politely asked for a full receipt and was told no while she was flicking her hand at me. No.
Starting point is 00:52:12 She waved her off. She waved her off again, yeah. Fanned her off. Fanned her off. This was needed for my corporate expense report. You'll get it on your credit card statement. Get out. You might have to eat the Popeyes.
Starting point is 00:52:26 You might have to eat the $9 you spend at Popeyes. Is it a tragedy? Is it the end of the world? If you have a corporate expense account, you could probably afford a Popeye's meal on your own, I'm thinking. Yeah, what corporation do you work for that you need that nine bucks back? How bad is it? That bad, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:42 It's not like they went out to a fancy steakhouse with clients and ordered wine and then they tried to stick them. After quietly waiting, I was treated like I upset them after spending $40. If I was out of luck with the receipt, I understand. This could have been handled way better. Totally unacceptable. I will never eat here again. This issue has been moved up to the corporate office.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Oh, boy. I'm corporate. I'm gonna call corporate. It's Popeyes, shut up and eat your chicken. What the fuck? Roman one star. Order today at 7.30 p.m. on 1126. They were out of mac and cheese.
Starting point is 00:53:20 Told me it would be, told me it, what the fuck? Told me it old be 10 minutes for a blackened chen sandwich. Chicken, I think. Blackened chicken, not blackened chen, which is a totally different and Chen is capitalized like it's just a Chinese guy's last name so I ordered fries
Starting point is 00:53:39 which were barely cooked and still cold in the middle tasted like they were hours old also had no fry container just thrown inside the bag reckless and then he's got a picture of just a bag with fries in it literally
Starting point is 00:53:52 it's on the floor and he's like looking down at it it was pretty much yeah Yvonne one star I went up here for lunch The lady who was at the counter had an attitude as soon as I approached it. Yeah. I asked her to give me a second to confirm someone else's order.
Starting point is 00:54:10 She tells me to hurry up. I start to give her my order. She cuts me off. We only have mac and cheese, red beans, and rice, and fries. I ordered mac and cheese. Then she starts yelling and being rude while I'm getting the other order, what drink would you like and still telling me to hurry. Mind you, she has my order wrong as she's reading it back.
Starting point is 00:54:30 They really need to do something about their own. employees' attitudes. I left. I will not be spoken to disrespectfully by anyone, especially giving them my hard-earned money. If she was having a bad day, she should not have come to work. God damn. You can't call in having a bad day. Yeah, I'm having a bad day. I feel like I'm going to be an asshole to customers today, so I'm going to stay home, okay? They don't want to allow you to do that normal. I would have never been at work one day in my life when I work at a job with customers. Having a tough day. Don't make enough money and I hate myself. I just call every day. Yep, still hate myself. So I don't know when I'm going to be in. I hate
Starting point is 00:55:11 everybody and myself. So it's going to be a while. It's still me. Still me. Still hatred. This is only going to, only going to spider web out into the general public and not help anybody. This morning, I was brushing my teeth. I looked up. Same guy. I can't make it. Can't make it. Got to go. Sorry. Oh, Christ. And a one star. very bad customer service. Yeah. I ordered spicy chicken and gave me mild. When I went to tell them that they weren't spicy,
Starting point is 00:55:40 they said they were and gave me hot sauce to make them more spicy. Yeah, they are. Just take some hot sauce. Shut the fuck up. We're having a bad day. We're having a... It's been a bad day, man. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Next up, we're going to do just a couple of reviews here, and we'll pick it back up next week, but I just want to get in a couple. We're going to the villages. What is that? That is. Yeah. It's a apartment complex. That's the weird retirement community in Florida where they all fuck each other.
Starting point is 00:56:09 Oh, what's it? The villages. Yeah. They all fuck each other. And there's like special codes of their swingerness. Like they have shit on their cars of different colors means like, you know, we're looking for a third or like, you know, we got an extra dick over here to give you. Whatever it may be. Yeah, it's a real weird insular community of old people who are insane and then drive golf.
Starting point is 00:56:31 golf carts and screaming inward to people. They're crazy. That golf cart accident on like fucking Instagram or whatever. Probably. There's tons of shit about the villages on like all on Instagram and all kinds of shit like that. Weird shit that they do there and stuff. The villages, they say on the website, it's a pretty special place. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:56:52 The villages is a collection of quaint retirement neighborhoods located in the heart of Florida nestled between two beautiful coastlines. Well, all of Florida is nestled between two. coastlines. Yeah, but they made that sound like tits. Exactly. That's crazy. Neighborhoods, the quaint retirement, the heart of Florida, nestled between two beautiful, technically Kansas is nestled between two beautiful coastlines, if you really want to get into it. Ports of travel and theme parks. Each neighborhood is unique in its charm and personality and connected in ways where all the lifestyle here,
Starting point is 00:57:27 what the fuck, and connected in ways where all the life. here for you to enjoy is just a golf cart away. Connected in ways. Yeah. By the genitalia, you're connected to your neighbor's wife. You can just drive right over and fuck your neighbor's wife. Fucker right. Good.
Starting point is 00:57:45 Here's five stars from Allison. Have had a house here since 2007, rented it, never used it until a family shuffle. So we all swapped out soft items and have been snowbirds ever since. so great meet up here or just come by yourself having a caretaker when not here as well as the same as home base both closely watched and managed well while you're having a threesome they'll closely watch you to make sure no one has any medical troubles so can enjoy all when here especially short drive to many other places but plenty right on sight by golf cart my fave part is my neighbors oh it is all right Wow, is there like fucking lead in the water or something? This lady is finding it really hard to follow her syntax and shit.
Starting point is 00:58:36 That's the idea, James. You've got to read between the lines. That's subliminal, that whole thing. I would say, so sweet and fun. Oh, boy. That says, I fuck my neighbors, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We go to lunch lots of interesting places
Starting point is 00:58:51 for fun food and exotic drinks, beautiful flowers on grounds. Let's hope this Lynn here has a better grasp of the English language. Lynn, five stars, came here to visit a friend who moved here three years ago. It's a true retirement community with many thing to do. Many things.
Starting point is 00:59:09 One thing. One thing, many. You know what it is. Many people to do. Many ways to do the same thing. Most of the homes look alike and each square has its own opportunities to have fun. My God. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Jesus. I personally don't like being around so many seniors. and also being so far away from the ocean. This is really super inland and a long drive to Ocala or Gainesville. Yikes. My friend tells me the doctors in this area are horrible, and he has to drive to Gainesville to see better doctors and hospital. He said if he would have known this,
Starting point is 00:59:49 he would have never moved to this area. Yeah. My heart rate's constantly up with all the naked tinnies around here. My dick is hard most of the time, which is they say that's not good for you. You know what I mean? And I've had a lot of 28-hour erections because I can't get to the doctor. Every time I hit four hours, I've got to get in the car,
Starting point is 01:00:07 we're going to drive all the way to Gainesville. I'm like, God, damn it, with my hard dick. Beth gives three stars. Oh, my God, right away. The villages is a lifestyle. Yes, it is, Beth. It's a lifestyle where old people rub their disgusting, wrinkled up genitalia on each other. That's what goes on.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Are the Jeep life. Oh, yes. And sweaty, too. Sweety old people. It's hot down there. We have several friends that live there, and we love to come visit, but it isn't the lifestyle we choose. We'll swing once in a while. We can't do it every day.
Starting point is 01:00:42 We just divorced on us every now and again. You know, it happens. You wake up. There's a dick in your mouth. You know, it goes way too large. If you like partying, eating, drinking, dancing, socializing. I'm going to put quotes on that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:56 And being part of a bit of a bit of. big sorority slash fraternity than this place is for you. These people are 50 years past sorority age. Let's be honest here. If the town squares at night offer live music and people really seem to love it. You can drive your golf cart everywhere and home choices are abundant. Golf courses, swimming pools, tennis, and pickleball, as well as any other hobby you may have are offered here. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Okay. And then finally this guy complaining about golf. make him our last guy. Jerry, two stars. I've lived in the villages for 15 years, and the only problem is the way they handle tea times for the championship golf courses with three nine holes.
Starting point is 01:01:42 I guess three nine hole courses. They consistently add three groups in from the 140 to 156, so when you make the turn, you always have to wait for two or three of these groups to tee off. These bastards! This slows down your
Starting point is 01:01:57 momentum and pace and you know and you now wait on every shot. They can make two of the courses straight tea times and the other nine holes for people who only like to play nine on a championship course, but I guess they make more their, I guess they make more money their way. I've decided that waiting on the back for nine to, back nine for 15 years is long enough for me. My home will be going up for sale this winter. I'm tired of these tea times I'm selling. 15 years of these bullshit tea times. Fuck off everybody. And we'll do one more.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Fine. One more because it's the last non-one star. We'll start out with the one-stars next time. Jane F. Here we go. One or two stars. Mahjong players beware. Oh.
Starting point is 01:02:43 Oh, everybody listen up out there in fucking podcast land. They're racist against mahjong. Oh, not that. The weekly news schedule lists some mahjong games as being open to all. so not true, all caps. I showed up in an open game and was informed in no uncertain terms that they had their own people and I was not welcome. We're not looking for an extra right now. Back in Michigan, when someone shows up to play, we welcome him or her and accommodate somehow.
Starting point is 01:03:15 Not in the villages. The weather may be better, but Michigan is looking better to me every day. I'm not included in the mahjong. They will not give me their mahjong. Imagine chasing the best mahjong, most inclusive mahjong around the country. In Michigan, I'm all over the mahjong. They let me in it.
Starting point is 01:03:38 Oh, that's fucking hilarious. So there you go. Let's leave it there. Unbelievable. Let's leave it with that. And we'll call it a day for your stupid opinions. Be careful of these goddamn villages. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Too inclusive on the golf course and not inclusive enough at mahjong. Not inclusive enough in Mahjong. Get yourself a washer and dryer. It's really the best purchase you'll ever make. It really is. And I would do that. I would not wash my clothes to save the money to do it if I had to. I would absolutely do that.
Starting point is 01:04:07 And if you go to Australia at a roller skate, watch out. Watch the concrete. And also they will hit you with a didgerie do as we do know that. And bring cash. Bring all of your koala skins or whatever they're called down there for that. So thank you so much. Join us again next week. If you like this, listen to our other two shows,
