Oh, okay, rep me up. I was just starting to open up this one. Don't open up. No, I think we've had enough. You made it weird. What I do also love about this job is I love that when I have a stupid thought

about a random theory that I have, we can use this show. and our audience to test the theory. Yeah, that's one of the privileges we have. It's a great privilege to have, and I have a really good theory that I want to test. Okay. All I need from everyone listening,

because actually I don't want to say what it is because then I feel like that affects our focus group. Right, okay. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it affects the sample size. Yeah, yeah. So I don't want to give any details. All the detail I will give.

is that I want people to call if you have a sister and you are a woman. Oh, okay, right. So girl sisters. Yeah. You just have to have one. Yep. One sister. So I can't play.

You can't play because you're a man. Right. Classic. You're used to it though. Always left out. It makes me happy that song. Just like you do. You make me so.

Cut it out. Had it out. Just move on. Do your thing, all right. Do your thing. Getting to come and do this show with you every day is a privilege and a gift. And I'll never take it for granted. I feel like you want something.

I just want to say one more time, I love you. And we'll move on because I really want to test this theory and I'm excited about it. So my theory, should I share it now? Yeah, we've got our list of sisters with sisters. Sisters with sisters. Yeah, I don't even know what the theory is yet. No. So the theory is because we've got our, we've got our, we've got our,

We've got our, what's it called, our sample. Our sample. Our test group. So it can't be implicated. Is that the word? Influenced. Influenced. So my theory is, right?

Sisters, right? Yes. If you have two sisters and if you look at them, I can tell which one is the older one and which one is the younger one by one trait. Okay. Not a visible trait. A visible trait. Oh, a visible trait.

Yes. Okay. The visible trait is that the older sister will always be shorter than the younger sister. You reckon? Let's just do a little sample within our own show. Okay, so I'm the younger sister. Yeah. taller than my older sister.

Claudia, are you the younger or older sister? I'm the older sister, but my siblings both have Down syndrome, so they're just naturally shorter. Still counts. No, I'm the older one. I'm taller. Oh. Yeah, it doesn't count. Oh, no, it doesn't count.

When you announced on That I could hear that it was about taller or young taller or older I thought yes, I'm going to get this Incredible and we haven't influenced it at all This is genuine And I also thought the same thing I thought I couldn't have even rigged this if I try. Yeah, exactly. Incredible. Thanks for calling through, Rochelle.

You're welcome. Thank you. A lot of texts on this. I have identical twins. One is older by 10 seconds. She is shorter than the younger twin sister. What the hell? Ten seconds. What in the world? Should we ask... Well, 10 seconds is rapid fire age. Should we ask for money from the government to do an actual study? I don't know what the study would be for.

Yeah, I don't know if there's much money at the moment either. And I thought the teachers will be like, hey, us first. But wouldn't you love to have that on your resume that you've done a study? You could go on a sabbatical, Bree. What? Oh, yeah, you could go and do your sabbatical and do your thesis. That's what smart people do. Guys, there's no need to be racist.

ZD.N.'s Branklin. Taka Waititi has hit the headlines again today for his 50th birthday party in Ibifa. Is he 50? He's 50, yeah, yeah. He's doing famous right, Tyker, in my. opinion. How old is my friend Rita Orra? She's 34.

Gosh, age gap? Yeah, 34, 35. Age gap, love. Tyker is doing famous right. It happened later in life and by that I mean he didn't get Hollywood famous until he was in his 40s. When was the movie boy? When did that come

out? It's a good question. But that was only New Zealand famous, right? He's like proper, proper Ibifa famous now. Yeah, he's proper Hollywood famous. Since getting famous, he's done what I, he's done what every Kiwi bloke who suddenly found himself famous would do. He's bought a waterfront mansion. He's made superhero movies.

And he's got a super hot pop star girlfriend who's 15 years younger than him, you know? Mm-hmm. He's living the dream. Now he's thrown this, um, epic poolside 50th birthday party in Abitha. Do you want to hear some of the famous people who attended Tyca's birthday party? I saw a few of the photos, a lot of... Who did you see? Matt Damon.

Matt Damon and his wife were there, yeah. I saw he was there. Sasha Baron Cohen was there? Yes. Borat? A couple of Aussie actors, I saw. Oh, yeah, yeah, it makes sense. Kara Delavine was there?

Was she? Yeah. Do you know Sebastian Stan? No. Claudia, who is Sebastian Stan? He's the Winter Soldier in Captain America in the Marvel series. He's a Marvel dude. Okay.

Kate Moss, was. was there. That's, that is freaking cool. That makes, that takes your party from a nine to a 12. Well, it takes it to, Kate Moss at your party. It takes it to that kind of party, doesn't it? Yeah. And Keisha from the Sugar Babes was there too. Awesome. Awesome. The, Rita Ora DJed, she DJed at the 50th, fun. But the, the, the, the thing getting the most attention at Tyca's poolside 50th in Ibiza is the sheer amount of cigarettes, were on offer. There were silver platters and like cake towers

and just trays everywhere of individual mulbara cigarettes. Oh, were they mulbrah? Yeah, they were all mulbras. I thought they were Winnie Blues. No, no, no, no, no. It'd gone from, I think it's a mulbara red and little boxes of matches

that all said Tyker's 50th on them. Can you imagine if you'd given up smoking if you went to a party like that? I feel like you'd have to smoke again just for a night. Nightmare, what a nightmare. I feel like you would feel like, the odd one out if you weren't smoking. I don't think you understand how many

cigarettes there were. It wasn't like there was a table of cigarettes. There were thousands and thousands and thousands of cigarettes. It was probably $10,000 worth of cigarettes there. Like when you put it into the conduct like when you think about it and how much cigarettes cost, I reckon it would have been

10 grand. Absolutely. At least. Absolutely. And it got me thinking about party favours that people offer at the party and the thing that comes out where they go, hey, Everyone at the party tonight is getting this. One of the ones that's got really famous over the last 10 years is that moment at the wedding towards the end before the buses come

and like a whole lot of cheese burgers come out. Great shout. I went to a friend's birthday in San Francisco and they had in and out burger arrive an hour before the end of the wedding. Awesome. We had a Mr. Whippy truck come to our wedding. My brother and his wife had gravy and mashed potato station. Yes.

My friend Mike and Bree at their wedding earlier this year. They had a ramen noodle station. Love it. Yeah. There's that famous scene in bridesmaids where everybody gets a puppy at the party. That's right. Remember?

And one of the characters takes nine. Melissa McCarthy takes all the puppies. She's like, I took nine. Probably would have been more comfortable with six. That's a lot of energy. So we want to ask this afternoon. It's a random one. But what was the party favour on offer at the event that you were at?

At the birthday, at the wedding, at the New Year's Eve party. Maybe it was bougie, or maybe it was just interesting. And we're not talking about sugar almonds. No. Is that what they're called? Sugar almonds? You know, they're like classic. Oh, candied almonds.

Is it a candied almond? Yeah, yeah. More for our parents' generation at every wedding they would have candied almonds. Is that what they're called? Like crystallized sugar on the outside, is that the one? They're real smooth. Oh, no, I don't know these. Oh, you don't know them?

No. Every wedding in the 80s and the 90s, had these at them. Really? I swear. It wasn't like code. Wait, hold on. They weren't like, hey, you want to get on the sugar almonds?

People. No. Hey, how hard are you going tonight? Do you want to get on the sugar almonds and then split a tray of marlborough reds? They'd usually be like powder blue or powder pink. Are you still stuck in the Bridesmaids universe and it's the Jordan Armands that they had? Jordan Armands! That's them.

You know at my sister's wedding, their party favours was at every place sitting, Everyone had a lollipop, but there was a picture of you as the background of the lollipop. Oh, so you got to suck yourself off? Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Fun. I mean, it was a good time.

0800 dials at M or you can text it to 9696. We want to know the interesting party favour that was offered at the party that you were at. Imagine if someone who went to the Grammy's calls. Yeah. Can you meet Tika Waititi's one million cigarettes? Dead Am's Bree and Clint podcast. Tyka Waititi is 50. He's had his 50th in Ibiza,

and there are a lot of photos coming out of trays and trays upon silver trays of Siggy's going around the party. You know what I reckon they should bring back? I've heard that at kids' birthday parties, they don't have party bags anymore. Oh, no, they do. They do? Yep. Yep, they do.

They definitely do. My kids are going to about a party or weekend at the moment. I'm so glad I heard a rumor from someone that they've gotten rid of the party bags. No, a lot of half-filled party bags. strewn around our house. Oh, good. They've all got a little packet of jelly beans in them. It's the best part about a...

A little packet of crayons. As a kid? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. No, the party bags are alive and well. Okay, good. Although I'm keen to ban party bags. What?

Too many party bags. Why fun police over here? There's too many things. What do you mean? There's too many things. You throw a couple of lollies in there and the kids are, like, a static with that.

You were saying before how much Tyca would have spent on the siggies at the party? A lot of people texted and said, Siggies are very cheap in Europe. How cheap? I don't know.

Should we find out? I'll ask chat GPT. Because they're very, very expensive in New Zealand. Let's say in Italy. How much does a pack of Molbara Reds cost in Italy? A packet, mulbara reds. What Italy you want? Yeah.

How much does a packet of cigarettes cost in New Zealand these days? I don't know. I think about $402. Do you have cigarettes got... Is it about $50? Is that? In Rome, the average price for a 20 pack of Marlborough is about 8 euros. So it's about $16.

That's cheap. In Milan, the price for 20s is $5.40. Oh, even cheaper in Milan. Because all the fashion designers. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, bring the price down because they smoke so many. What's that video? They're like, well, we vac up, we have coffee, maybe, have black coffee, maybe two or three cigarettes.

So then we have a croissant. And later in the evening, we have another two or three cigarettes. So for dinner, we have a couple of cigarettes. We have a couple of cigarettes. Do you know the price of cigarettes in New Zealand goes up 10% every New Year's Day? Does it? Yeah, that's how they're getting people off the cigs. They just put it up and up and up.

Someone said Vietnam siggies are $1.50. What? For a packet of cigarettes? God, I want to go back to Vietnam so bad. It is the cheapest country I've ever travelled to. The food's amazing and it's fresh and it's cheap. And the coffee? Oh, just everything's so good there.

We asked what's the party favours that were on offer at the party you were at. Someone said, my daughter loves toy bunnies. So at her first birthday party, everybody left with a soft toy bunny, and we even had an Adopt a Bunny station. Oh, that's cool. Live bunnies. Adopt a live bunny at the party. That is quite fun.

Someone said our wedding favour was beer coolers with the date and our names on it. That's cool. Like an actual, like a chili bin. Like, no, like a beer cooling. Like the little sleeve thing. Is that what you guys call them? Yeah, yeah. What do you call them in Australia?

Um, yeah, what do we call them? A beer whitsite. A beer stoma. I forget everything about Australia. It's like I never lived there. Surely they're called coolies. No, they're not. Are they not?

Oh, that's going to annoy me. I feel like my brain is literally just shut off that part of my life. What is a beer cool? Someone from Australia listening will know. A stubby. A stubby. A stubby holder. It's a stubby holder.

Oh, yeah. They just popped back into my brain. Yeah, that's what Chachy-Bittises is to do, stubby holder or stubby cooler. Mm-hmm. What do you guys call them? Yeah, that or a beer coolie? How have I, I've lived here eight years. I've never heard that before.

A beer coolly. I like that. We asked what the party favour was on offer. Someone said there was a whole bowl of mushrooms at the party I went to recently. That's interesting. Do you think it was like Shataki mushrooms? I think probably more. oyster.

Oh, oyster mushrooms. Yeah, right, right, right. Because they're quite fancy. Shataki are a bit big for a party, aren't they? Do you reckon, I hope that wasn't a party that Australian woman was throwing? Oh, that one with the dehydrated mushrooms. They didn't go to that woman's party.

True, yeah, actually it's dangerous to take mushrooms from a stranger. Just be careful. And then someone else, I hate party bags. The shit ends up all over my house and in the rubbish. I'm with Clint, get rid of them. Yeah, rise up against party bags. I agree. God, you are just, you are ready to go to ZB, aren't you?

You talk to me when you've got Kigs. Oh, mate, I'll be banning everything. Yeah, we're banning. I'm banning all toys. We're banning fun. No fun in this house. It's banned. Someone said it's called a beer coozer.

When did you close, try and kill you? Crazy headline, but an actual real-life situation for a woman over in Australia.

Oh no, sorry. Yeah, in Australia who was shared on Instagram the fact that she had a neck scarf, neck scarf nearly kill her. What? I know. So she posted this video photo carousel of her in this beautiful gown. It's a dress where it has the neck scarf attached. to it. It's the same fabric as the dress

right? Exactly. It kind of drapes a long way down the back. Yeah, it's very fancy, very regal. Anyway, she then, the last photo in the carousel is a photo of a very brutal mark across her neck

and she's revealed that she was nearly decapitated by the scarf on the dress. How? So apparently she was in the car and she's rolled down the window the scarf has flown out the side of the car, out the window, gotten caught in the wheel,

and then, and then, like, put her back into the seat and has nearly taken her bloody head off. Oh, that's terrifying. Isn't it? And now that you explain it like that, I can see exactly how it could happen. She could cord on her wheel, got to get caught on the mirror of a passing car.

She said, this is what she wrote. She said, a reminder to the ladies, remove your neck scarves before entering or operating every heavy machinery, nearly decapitated myself getting the scarf tangled underneath the car on the way home. God, that's terrifying. Isn't that crazy? And then I've done some research. This is a little bit grim.

So warning, a little bit grim. But, I mean, quite interesting. Famously, American dancer Isadora Duncan died in 1927 when the law. long scarf she was wearing became entangled in the wheel of the open-air car that she was in, and the Isidora-style scarf was then named after her and is known for its flowing, free-flowing style. That seems bad taste, that they named the scarf after the person that it killed. Isn't that wild? That does not sound like the kind of tribute she would want, you know?

Mm. Oh. Isn't that crazy, the Isidora? Yeah. There's lots of clothing that you're not supposed to wear in certain situations, like how you have to have a closed shoe on a roller coaster and things like that. Yep. And every now and then you're like, oh, that seems pedantic.

But it'll be for these things, weren't it? It'll be for things like this. It'll be because things have happened before and they're like, okay, we've learned our lesson. We talked about that story a couple of weeks ago about, was it Suki Waterhouse, who said that her tight leather jeans gave her a hernia. Yeah. So it happens. I believe it.

Yeah. God, some pants of mine, I swear, I should throw them out. We want to ask this afternoon if your clothes tried to kill you. It may not be as serious as your scarf getting caught in the wheel of a car. You may have just got trapped inside an item of clothing before. Or it may have been a necklace that got caught around your neck. Or it may have been a bangle that cut off the circulation to your hand or something like that. When I was single back in the day, a dress nearly killed me.

Really? Yeah, I got home from a night out after a few razis. and I tried to get this dress off and the zip broke, couldn't get it off. I had to cut myself out of it. Oh my God, I had that same experience with my friend Sharon in Fiji. Had to cut it out. She had this dress and you know how you sort of swell up a little bit

when you go to the tropics when you go to the islands? She tried the dress on at home. It worked. And then she tried to get the dress on in Fiji and she'd got the zip halfway up. Happened. Wouldn't go any further up, wouldn't go any further down. Did she cut it off?

She called me in for help. I had to get, it was so embarrassing. I had to get my next door name. were over. Really? To help me. And he cut me out of this dress. The chores of life.

Because I lived by myself. It was so embarrassing. And that's when I decided I need to get into a relationship. Random question. But let's see what we get. Did an item of clothing or jewelry or something that you wear on your body? Did it try and kill you? I feel like our boots are going to be, you know, right up there.

Or the real skinny jeans from the 2000s? Yeah. A ZM's Brinklin podcast. Did you close try and kill you? Yeah. A woman has posted online about a neck scarf that nearly took a head off. Yeah, got caught in the wheel of her car while she was driving. It's funny because that's the image that you think, don't you?

Someone driving in a convertible with their scarf billowing out behind them. I haven't showed you a picture of her neck injury. No, you haven't. But I just want to get your reaction for the people because they obviously can't see it. Yeah, I'm going to see for the first time. Her neck a couple of days later. Oh, that's terrifying. Oh, my God.

Pretty hardcore, eh? The skin's all broken. Wow, that's really scary. Pretty bad. Yeah. So we've asked, when did a piece of clothing try to kill you? Someone texted in and said a lot of electricians won't wear their wedding rings due to the shock risk. Yeah.

And the risk of it de-gloving their finger if it gets stuck. Or at least that's what the electricians tell their wives anyway. Some people become electricians, so it's easy. easier to have affairs. Fun fact. Jackie's here. Hi Jackie. Hi, Jackie.

When did a piece of clothing almost kill you, Jackie? When I was a teenager, actually first I want to say long-time listener and not first-time caller, but first time getting through. First time getting through her. Hell yeah. We'll celebrate you, Jackie. You bloody deserve your moment. Yes.

I was a teenager and with my friend. we snuck out to go drinking with some boys and getting a ride home from them no jacket so I was lent a dressing gown which I put on and so pillion passenger obviously and the tie got caught in the spokes are we talking motorbike passenger

motorbike yes sorry yeah so the dressing the tie that goes around the dressing gown and got caught in the spokes of the tyre correct and then we came off skidded along the road a bit but my arm was actually in the spokes but it must have just stopped in time that it did take my arm off

but it did leave a big mark You would have been in so much trouble that I bet you wished it did kill you No because I I lived with my dad and he was a man Obviously and you know I just said oh I fell over and scraped my jeans I didn't show my arm

And he didn't ask No Jackie you sound Jackie sounds like she was trouble Yeah, Jackie sounds like an absolute handful. We're asking, when did your clothes try and kill you? Someone said many a bra has tried stabbing me. Speaking of a handful.

This is, I mean, the lads probably don't understand this. Or you might have come across this as a lad. But if you wear a bra with an underwire, then a lot of the time eventually the underwire will turn against you and will pop out and start stabbing you directly in the breast. Yeah, I know. I understand. And that's why I've been campaigning to get rid of bras for years. What about the safety when running?

I've been trying to get rid of running too. Concussion rates will go through the roof for some women. I'm anti-brass, anti-running. I had a friend's dad wear a scarf on a motorbike. It unraveled and caught the back wheel and pulled him off. He was going 100K and nearly lost limbs from it. Okay, that's wild. Taylor's here.

Hi, Taylor. Hi, Taylor. Hello. We ended an item of clothing. to kill you, Taylor? Well, definitely not as dramatic as other people's, but I was in a changing room when I was, I don't know, at uni, and tried on a dress that was far too small for my chest. Okay.

And so when I was trying to take it off, I got stuck and was like hyperventilating and the shop assistant had to come and help me. I feel this on such a deep level. Taylor, the amount of times that I've had a panic attack in a change room, because I can't get a piece of clothing off is crazy. Just so we're clear, you had to get assistance to get your big boobies out of the clothing item. It happens a lot. Yes, that's correct.

Oh, my God. It does happen quite often, more than you think. Did they say, would you like the size up? No, I think I was like, oh, I'm just, I've got somewhere to be. Yeah, you're like, I'll think about it. Thanks. Was it a man or a woman assistant? It was a woman.

Okay, well, that's a plus. So thank you Taylor Someone said it didn't happen to me But you've heard about people going to the doctor Freaking out because their legs are blue And they think they've lost circulation And then they find out it's the dye from their jeans Yeah

That happens quite often See if you can understand this text They said my necklace Or almost killed me I was drunk as sitting at a booth in a bar With my head on the table And I started to vomit My necklace got caught on my hand

My necklace got caught on my handbag and when I tried to sit up, I couldn't because it was caught. My friend had to save my life and get the necklace off me. Meanwhile, my face was drowning in my own vomit. Well, you were drunk, vomiting and freaking out. Imagine you would just be full panic station. Literally. We were out on the boat, biscuiting,

and I had one of those life jackets on that inflates when you pull the tab. I hit the water and the tab got ripped off and it inflated itself, but it was so tight around my neck that I was choking, and I had to wait for the boat to circle back to pick me up and signal to my parents that I was choking because I couldn't talk and I was passing out. Luckily, they pulled me onto the boat and my dad snipped the life jacket with a knife and saved my life.

The irony of the life jacket supposed to save my life, but nearly killing me is terrifying. God, false advertising. Yeah. They should call it a death jacket. Someone texting about, remember that TikTok a couple of years ago where they said that you shouldn't wear a claw clip in the back of your hair while you're driving

because if you have a crash, it can go into your skull. Yeah. I put that into ChatGPT. What did they say? Is it real or fake news? And ChatGPT says it's real. There are documented risks of the claw clip. But they said it's exaggerated that it could impale you in the skull,

according to ChatGPT. I don't even have enough hair to put up in a claw clip. You need quite a lot of hair. Do you? Yeah. I reckon you can pull off a hair. I just, I kind of, I try it and then it'll just kind of eventually just fall out. Just slide down the back of you.

It's quite sad. A lady in, oh, this one's, this one's bad, guys. We asked when did an item of clothing try to kill you? This one succeeded. A lady in my mum's aquarobics class died on the way to class because her winter scarf got tangled around the tire of her mobility scooter and it strangled her. What?

What a way to go? She actually died. According to this text, yeah, on her way to aquaerobics. Oh Wow That's so sad Yeah How do we bring back

The mood from that Going any upbeat songs you can put on I don't really It's an appropriate song to play I wish we still had that lady Whose boobs were too big And she got stuck in the changing room to finish with Yeah she was quite fun

She should have saved it to the end day Ah well I feel like playing Benny in the Jets. Hopefully someone's birthday bangers that today. Play Z-Dems, Brie and Clint. Time for a birthday banger. All I want to my birthday is a birthday banger.

don't let me get me bang. What a bop. I mean, Mr Big would have been good too. Yeah, it would have been good too. Is it just me that has such a deep love for that song? Mr. Big to be with you? I have such a deep, deep love. I really like the song.

It's not sort of central to me the way that it is to you, yeah. Like for me, songs that are on the same level, Mr. Big to be with you, Sonia Dada, you treat me no good no more. Yeah, yeah. Like, do, give me a visceral reaction. You know what songs I put in the same category as that? Like, what is it for you? And with those two songs, I would put four non-blondes in there as well.

What's Up? Yeah, yeah. It's a great song. Yeah. Yeah. Do you have any songs that cause you to have, you know, like a visceral reaction? Yeah, yeah. Anything off Usher's 8701.

Massive erection, again. Yeah, yeah. Most of the Confessions album. And then the odd song from his projects after that, yeah. You don't want to know what happens to Clint with part two. Oh, don't get me started on at Confessions Part 3. Part 1, you know, is good. But part 2 just sends it.

I very, really last until part 3, to be honest. What would you say? Who's got better odds at the relationship working out? Those who meet online or those who meet in person? Old school versus new school. Yeah. I know there's a school of thinking that online is better because you can refine the person that you go on the date with a bit more,

like you can ask more questions before you do meet up and be a little bit more selective, perhaps. But I'm a romantic. I'm old school. I like to think that chance encounters and destiny can play a part. So I'll go in person. There's a study, a real study that's been done on this. Research from an international team of research.

researchers, led by Dr. Kowal from the University of Reclaw, used data. This sounds fake. It does. Wait a second. This sounds like a fake study. A doctor from the University of Tinder. Rock, Rocklaw, W-R-O-C-L-A-W, Rok-L-A-W, isn't it? They gathered data from over 6,000 participants from 50 countries.

Right. And essentially they found out that participants who met their partners online reported lower relationship satisfaction. Yeah, that's what I thought. It says here that people who meet their romantic partners online are less happy in love compared to those who meet in person. Yeah. According to this study. Similar social and educational backgrounds Can positively influence relationship quality

By fostering greater social support and acceptance Shared life experiences And alignment in values, world views, etc., etc. Yeah, we have a sample size of two in this room And me and my wife met in person You and your partner swiped each other up. We're both going right? Yeah.

Yeah. Ella, where did you and your hubby meet? Uh, neutral, in real life. In real life. Yeah. In real life. Yeah. Claudia, where'd you and your ex mate?

In real life. Oh. Okay, so in terms of our study group, the real life's don't have it. My bad guys. Sorry, Claude. Sorry, Claude. The study also says that, or this guy who's done the study says that he believes the internet provides access to such a big limitless pool of people and potential partners.

And while the abundance could help individuals find their ideal match, in practice, it often leads to choice overload and it actually makes you just always look for the next best thing. Totally. It's like when you go to a restaurant and the menu's too big. You can't settle on anything because what if there's a better option? It's the same for the apps, I imagine. But also if you date someone that you have met through social circles,

there's other connections there too, possibly. Like you have friends in common or you are part of the same clubs. You dated their sister. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What did you say off air? You said you always say you are, what was it? Oh, I've got like a superiority complex because in my mind, my relationship is real because we met in real life.

And better than online relationships. Yeah, I'm better than the appies. Yeah. It's just in my head. I don't say that openly. That makes me feel sad. Like, I'd never say that out loud. Yeah, right.

Oh, was that just an inside thought? Yeah, yeah. I would never say that out loud. Yeah, I think keep that to yourself. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. What if all the loser dating app people hear me say it, you know? That'd be terrible.
