it's 2000 it's 2024 and that's crazy right it is you know what i remember i remember when it was 2000 no i remember
when i remember when it changed i remember the year it changed to 1990 and i was like whoa a
new decade because that was my first new decade i don't remember that but i was so well you were
yeah you were seven i was you were six or seven seven right you were seven I was ten
no I guess I was six
if it was going into 1990 right
and you were nine
was I?
yeah
oh yeah you're right
this is 1990
he's right he's right
and so
and I remember that
I remember it was with Mike Levecchio
we were the Levecchios
and we were like
whoa it's gonna be 1990
wow
the Levecchios dude
Mike Levecchio was his friend
his age
my friend was Steveve levecchio he
was my age italian yep i just started following mike on instagram i don't know yeah i don't know
if he accepted my thing sad they had an older sister named lauren and i always because of them
i always wished when i was a kid i had we had an older sister oh really yeah dude i always wanted
an older sister because of lauren levecchio I guarantee you she doesn't even remember me because it was like I was so much
she definitely remembers you yeah maybe okay there's no question right hey you were really
memorable to her yeah I remember um no but I remember being at their house being like damn
there's like a girl in this house that like lives here really that would be so weird yeah like I
mean that's Steve had to sleep over the same lauren had friends over oh well that's weird this is right this is lit well this is the riz based no shit you're just
don't try to connect to the tiktok crowd i'm saying dude what's up tiktokers it's it's rizd
it's not rizd okay it's not riz Ahmed dude no it's not I'm Riz Ahmed that's an actor yeah he's a great actor
he was in the the the one with that John Turturro was in oh the night before night after whatever
it is I've never seen that yet night after the night of the night of wow I'm doing the sequel
and then the third installation is it good it's really good it's actually I didn't see it really
good I gotta see it man I always want to see what that and the leftovers are the things i'm always like i gotta see that and those are things both of which that i like
okay all right how about that that's good what are we doing in 2024 how are we feeling what do
you do do a do you do resolutions and b if you do what are they this year i don't do resolutions i
don't either but i have one for this year okay so you do them now well no i mean
i historically i don't do them all right so i have one this year all right and it it's kind of one
and a half okay so the main thing is that i want to start treating myself with as much respect and
love as i treat my friends and loved ones. Such a white woman thing to say.
I just,
I think everybody can relate to this though.
So hard on ourselves and it like,
it results in like a shitty mood and like an ill reflection of myself.
Yeah.
And there's no reason to,
I'm,
I care so much and I have so much respect and like,
like empathy and sympathy for people I love and my friends and like why wouldn't
i extend that to myself yeah you know i'm saying mine's to talk more shit about you that's great
that's actually so weird i was just saying the other day this is so weird it might have even
been yesterday that to someone that i feel like we were talking about siblings. And I was like, I feel like I'm probably right to say that my brother is maybe one of the only people that knows me that probably never talks shit about me.
No, ever.
That's so crazy.
Never.
But what is talking shit, though?
Like, I might say something critical about you, but I would also say it to you.
There's nothing critical to say about me, which is what's crazy.
What do you mean?
What's talking shit?
That's a good question.
Jordan Peterson. Well, on one hand, you'll have to say about me which is what's crazy what do you mean what's talking shit that's a good question uh like jordan peterson like well on one hand you'll have to say what is shit like like what is talking like you know here i'm communicating how he does this or
no i've never done that right yeah i've never done that ever in my life um and the other thing
the point if i have lord struck me dead what if that happened it was on camera
people would never not believe in god if they saw that like if you happen to die right after you
said that but i'll tell you right now people will never not believe in god well of course but i'm
saying everyone would see the video and think it's actually pretty compelling evidence but even still
nobody would ever stop believing in god no one would ever stop and i believe in horus christ
what are you saying you're saying nobody will ever stop believing you mean you mean there will never be a time when no one doesn't believe
in god people don't believe of course not yep because it will always be that belief
and i believe in horus that is very obviously true i believe it's sorry i don't know why you're
saying it like it's something because as time progresses science will become more obvious
obvious and you know but belief in god if anything, it will just shift.
It only shifts.
But, yeah, people never not.
Christians, Muslims, Jews, we're not going anywhere.
It's Muslim.
We're all not going anywhere.
It's Muslim.
Muslim?
Muslim.
Like Mussolini, Muslim?
No.
Oh, okay.
Well, never mind then.
The other one, though.
Okay.
The point five is to tell the people that I love
that I love them more.
Oh, cool.
Oh, so you have a two, two.
You have two.
That's what I'm saying, 1.5.
It's like kind of-
I get it.
I have zero.
You have zero resolutions.
That's just to keep going, dude.
Well, that is a resolution.
But it's not though.
I could not do it
because I'm going to still keep going.
I'm not going to do a resolution.
You would keep going even if it was right yeah but i have
my back hurts same place as it always does i stopped kind of yeah i stopped working out for
10 days got sick um traveled a little bit couldn't work out because i was in phoenix and it was
raining like hell i was gonna work because i was gonna work out outside and Phoenix and it was raining like hell. I was going to work because I was going to work out outside. And then also it was like pouring,
so I wasn't going to go to the gym and stuff.
Anyway, dude, I was sick.
And it's really, I was pretty sick for two days.
For one day, I was pretty sick.
Second day, I was kind of sick.
Then, dude, I was just sick for like 12 days, a little bit.
You know what I'm saying?
I do know exactly what you're saying.
Sickness hangs on. When I was young, it never did. As I'm saying? I do know exactly what you're saying. Dude, sickness hangs on.
When I was young, it never did.
As I get older, I've been...
Really?
I was sick in October, dude.
And like pretty bad, pretty sick.
And I got better in like maybe a week or 10 days.
But there's like...
I still have some symptoms from that sickness.
And I'll probably have them until the next time
i'm sick and you don't think that they're in your head what do you mean they're they're i mean they're
campy in my head because of but wait you're gonna have gross and you're gonna have them in until
you're next sick that's my sense it's not going away for months you know what i'm hoping is the
next time i get sick then it all is like we're done now hey you know what dude you look good with that
kind of facial hair i think so too thank you okay you figured it out at 40 you figured it out i think
i figured it out i think do it like that the trick is to when i'm shaving don't go to the skin like i
mean obviously the mustache stays but like try to leave a little bit everywhere else but sometimes
you can't why and you mess up you go a little too close else, but sometimes you can't.
Why?
And you mess up.
You go a little too close in one spot.
No.
What do you mean no?
Because you can just...
I'm telling you that I do that.
Step it.
Don't do that.
What's step it?
Step it.
Have a step on the thing.
Put the thing on.
Oh, I have those.
I've never used them.
Oh, wow, dude.
I only use the nothing.
You ever been somewhere?
No.
Never been anywhere.
Hold on.
All right.
So this is boring, right?
This is very, very boring. I don't think so. We're often way more boring than this. Really? Sometimes. Never been anywhere. Hold on. All right. So this is boring, right? This is very, very boring.
I don't think so.
We're often way more boring than this.
Really?
Sometimes.
Okay, great.
Okay, great.
It's episode 91.
Wow, that's crazy, actually, that we've been doing this for four years.
Yep.
91.
Episode 91.
Go on over to getpatreon.com slash lifeline luxury.
Get Lifeline Luxury.
It's on and popping
over there it's honestly so good okay i listen i don't listen to every episode of this or watch
every episode of this but i do watch every i just recently actually caught up on lifeline luxury
really it's the best i never watch anything i don't watch anybody's podcast period well i feel
like i have to watch this one because mr fucking yeah he does a good job
mr fucker fucks up a lot his man over here well he doesn't fuck up mr mako mr other man oh he
fucks up fucks up left and right so you gotta keep an eye on him just make sure everything
goes so i mean he fucks up so much he's not even here right now so and if and if chris was here
and anthony wasn't i would say chris never fucks up and Anthony's the one that always fucks up. We would blame whoever's not here.
Yeah.
All right.
So, all right, good.
So let's go into a submission here.
Yep.
And I can't wake up today.
Chris, Matt, Jesus, guys.
I just want to thank you so much for, you know, I've never.
Has no idea what you're going to say.
No, really, you know, sometimes when I get stuck in my own head and my own thing,
I've thought about putting videos out there.
Jesus, are you kidding?
I've thought about sending you guys a video, right?
And the amount of times that I've recorded my problems
and heard them out loud myself
has just made me realize how not that big of a deal it is.
And how sometimes so simple, how the solution is so just right in your fucking face.
So thank you so much, guys.
And we didn't even do it.
Literally, it took him so long to say that.
He said nothing for 95% of that.
Could have said the thing so quickly.
You know what? but he was so happy
and pleasant
he was
he was great
I'll tell you this
I'll tell you this much
he said nothing period
he said nothing period
even the whole video
what he ended up saying
was interesting
thank you
which is just thank you
but what he said
from what I gleaned from that
is he's saying
just making the video
and not even having
to send it in
making the video
forcing myself to say it succinctly out loud
made me realize the solution to the problem.
That rings very true to me because very often,
especially with work, I'll be really upset about something.
But personal shit too.
I'll write a long email or text.
And then by the end of writing it, I will feel better.
And I won't even have to send the thing.
Oh, definitely.
You know what I'm saying?
Oh, yeah.
Definitely.
Even though Sky didn't ask for advice.
My advice for situations like that is always, like, people are like, I don't know if I should write them and let them know how much it pissed me off or how hurt or whatever.
Just write out the email and save it.
You've written so many letters to me.
No, I've never written one to you.
Save it and sit on it for like a day.
Sit on it!
Well, what is that from?
Al Pacino and something.
I think that's from your bit about Al Pacino
from like when you started.
Oh, you're right, dude.
Didn't we talk about this, Anthony?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good input, man. Excluded me. Excluded me. Well, well no because he laughed and i wanted to make sure and i knew you
thought that and i was like anyway i was in detective work i'm not gonna call mentalist um
but yeah just sit on sit on it yeah yeah you'll be good yeah um you might forget about the whole
thing forget about what if you write it out and sit on it yeah you will probably forget about the whole thing so i my therapist is uh suggested doing that a few times and whenever i do it i start
fucking absolutely bawling really oh yeah immediately i go like this
immediately oh okay okay oh okay yeah i've done it maybe two three times wow i just started
immediately bawling wow Wow. All good.
Once I did it on a plane, the guy next to me probably thought it was a nut job.
So it's all good.
I didn't even mean to, dude.
You didn't mean to cry?
Not at all. Who means to cry?
That's what crying is.
You surprise yourself.
You get overwhelmed with emotion.
Not me.
I'm always like, here it comes.
T minus one minute.
Oh.
Well, robot.
Cry bot.
T minus sad bot.
T minus one minute.
My eyes rain in T minus one minute.
Eyes rain.
You know poetry.
No, but that's how it would be in the fucking robot movies.
I hated that.
Why are my eyes raining?
And it's like you know.
Oh, wow, dude.
You know.
Bicentennial man.
Yeah, but you know crying.
If you know all the other words
You know your eyes aren't raining
What you're doing though
Is you made up a thing
That isn't
I think
In existence
Yep
And got mad about it
Yes I did do that
Okay cool
But it's probably real
Okay
It probably did happen
I can imagine some student film
Is like why are my eyes raining
Oh well definitely
At NYU
Yeah
Definitely a student film
You know
And I'm pissed at that guy
Taking a shot at me
And you did it probably
Oh wait you went to NYU too Yeah I did For three days but i dropped out yeah because i'm gangsta honestly i should
have dropped out too i'm gangsta honestly frankly i should have dropped out too you know what i'm
upset about 2023 what i declared it the year of the bing bong early on i didn't really didn't
really like no it was the year of the bing bong and that's so wants me to stop you know um so i i fucking cannot wake up today dude and also
my back hurts and then also i'm driving along here and i go like this to look at something
fucking pinched a nerve dude damn that happens to you a lot i wonder why you you're so like
i know you keep your body in such good shape why does it happen to you so much so this is what i'm
saying i didn't work out for 10 days.
That's why my back fucking hurts.
Oh, wait.
What do you mean?
Why?
Remember because I said I was sick and I didn't work out?
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
My back hurts because I didn't work out.
And then this happened probably because I just got back into working out.
I need to keep moving, dude.
My body is a machine.
It's like an airplane.
You're a shark.
The airplanes that crash are the new airplanes.
It's like an airplane.
You're a shark.
The airplanes that crash are the new airplanes.
You got to fucking have a well-oiled airplane that works all the time, that is constantly in motion.
I'm a fucking 747.
I'm a Mako.
You know what?
What?
A Mako shark.
Oh, a Mako shark.
If I don't keep moving, I die.
All right.
Do you understand?
Crash and burn, baby.
Yeah, I understand.
But I'm serious. I have to keep moving i die all right you understand i crash and burn baby yeah i understand but but
i'm serious i have to keep moving and that's for real dude i can't believe how much worse i felt
because i wasn't moving around interesting is it it is interesting yeah i don't move around nearly
as much as you and you know how much better you'd feel if you did no i don't and i'm not trying to
push it on you but i'm just saying you you asked me a question let me answer okay no i don't because
i don't do it i don't know how much better i would feel because no if you started doing it and i'm
not i'm not saying you should okay but if you started doing it in three months your life would
be unreal and not to saying it's not unreal it's unreal but it will be so much more unreal that
you'd be like this is a fantasy your hair looks good it's like a nine out of ten today i don't even ask
do you think maybe you don't know when your hair looks the best i think people think that hair
looks good different i saw a thing on the congratulations thing someone left a comment
it was an 8.2 i thought it had to be you know what i mean it's like i like when people rate my hair
i i think that my hair is sometimes banging
and people don't think it is.
And sometimes it's not banging.
People think it's banging.
So you have a different opinion
than what other people think.
Sometimes.
About your own hair.
Sometimes.
But I have a different opinion
on what different people think about anything.
Because sometimes you think a chair is nice.
Sometimes somebody thinks a chair is ugly.
Yeah, that's the way it is, I guess, isn't it?
Right.
Okay, let's do another one okay
hey matt and chris uh just chat gpt girlfriend checking back oh yeah guys
in a shocking turn of events we have broken up since then and this is a particularly brutal one
for me so any words of advice or encouragement about breakups will always be appreciated from you too on another note my brother is a huge fan of you guys he is the reason that i started watching
congratulations and then later on lifeline the reason that i knew that i was on lifeline was
because he heard it and then called me to let me know very cute um so shout out to travis we love
him and uh i'm going through a really hard time right now
but you know
life rips anyway
so thank you guys
because of it
what
I have no memory
what did she do
her
she broke up with her boyfriend
but she said
no no
I know
I remember what happened
three seconds ago
I thought that's what you were saying though
you said oh yeah I remember you
oh she had
her boyfriend wrote her a love letter
she's like all I want is something like significant and emotional from you.
Like, write me something.
He did a GPT one.
Yeah, I remember now.
Well, yeah, that is.
But you were going to break up with this guy.
Anyway, my advice is to think, change the lens through which you're looking at it.
Obviously, you're in pain, but let it, allow it to soften the pain
knowing that I promise you
that relationship was going to end regardless,
whether it's now or in three months,
six months.
So, and truthfully,
and I can say this without actually lying in any way,
it's better to have gotten it over with
than have to deal with it in the future.
Yeah, I know, definitely. And you may be in a lot of pain you're obviously young and you're sweet and you're cute
you're gonna meet somebody thank you that doesn't write you love letters using chat gpt and doesn't
that sound nice i think it does and i think that you should look forward to that instead of looking
back and thinking about how look Look, obviously breakups suck.
I hate when people break up, dude.
Even when you want to break up with the person and you do it, it sucks for you afterwards.
Talking so pointedly.
Okay.
Why?
What do you mean?
And even when you break up.
I didn't think I was doing that.
Well, you were.
To be perfectly frank.
Okay.
Well, that's fine.
People look at things in different ways.
No, but I think that, you know, obviously, I To be perfectly frank. Okay. Well, that's fine. People look at things in different ways.
No, but I think that, you know, obviously, I think you know this.
You're going to be okay.
But it's better to have gotten it over with.
And it sucks for anyone in any situation.
Whether you get broken up with or you did the breaking up, doesn't matter.
It sucks.
Go ahead.
All right. You keep saying the same thing, you know.
That's why I said it real fast.
But you cut me off.
So I wanted to reset it real fast because I started doing that.
No, I said it real fast because you were already exhibiting impatience and it was pissing me foreign robot i was exhibiting impatience and it was
pissing me um so i forgot what i was gonna say because you said the same thing about it oh and
you could be you're in a lot of pain but you could be at least you don't have neck and back pain like me so making it about yourself cool and that's fine but my hair is doing
really well today don't touch it don't touch no that that's a fallacy dude what if you think your
hair looks good don't not touch it whoa what is this yeah dude there's a here's a life hack dude but wait is this a fallacy
that's been shown to be true or you think this i am the control i am the i have i understood this
i've never said it out loud oh okay but this is a fucking life hack dude okay go ahead are you ready
for a life hack yeah so say your hair looks good do you go like this someone says your hair looks
good and then i walk down another person your hair looks good you You go like this. Someone says, your hair looks good. And then I walk down the street. Another person says, your hair looks good.
You go, I better not fuck it up.
Yeah, right.
Of course, yeah.
Get out of here.
That is not the truth.
The second you decide to not touch your hair, it sits.
It settles.
It all falls apart.
It sits.
It sits.
It gets stale.
If your hair looks good, it looks good because of the body because of
the activation of your hair you have to keep it alive so you have so you say my hair looks good
guess what i do so go ahead say my hair looks good your hair looks good thanks so much man
well it's gonna still look good it does look good see it's about the body it's about the activation dude chris so soon vidal dalia well you know i was gonna say vidal dalia yeah and that one's better yeah it might be
yeah vidal is a funnier word i was going back and forth for like 20 seconds you could have just said
vidal so soon i know but i didn't want to okay that was not even on the table frankly hey let
me tell you something it is so fucking obvious we're brothers that it might we
might be the most brothers ever you know i'm saying yeah but explain more every single
cock sucking way dude i mean every that isn't true i mean every single way we're different
the way we look you mean like outward facing the way we sound
right the way we are the way we banter banter sick in a mate
even if we didn't sound or look the way we look you'd still be able to tell we were brothers
we have brothers
ah the banter guy what was he speed dating sick and that was he like honestly who fucking cares
never got fucked ever that guy no you mean you mean never had sex yeah well i got fucked
you like that sick in it I'm going to pass. I'm going to pass. Sick.

play it what up chris and matt have a question about international relationships for you
um i've been in tokyo for a couple years now and i've been seeing a japanese girl now there's a
couple problems she doesn't speak any english i speak broken japanese so we can still communicate
but hell yeah definitely a wall and i have american citizenship so i'll have to return
to america eventually do you think that there's a limit to these types of relationships do you
think it's a waste of time i would love to know if you have any experience or have any friends
that made it successful um yeah love the insight i've been a baby since day one but i gotta say
this is my favorite podcast of all so please keep it up love you guys
better every time yeah thanks raises something that i that was cool yeah that is cool this
raises something that i've thought about um and i i don't know if i've ever said it out loud either
there's a bunch of secrets being exposed this podcast okay i don't know secrets well i something
i didn't say out loud about the hair thing.
I don't think I've ever said this out loud either.
Okay.
Not this, but I'm going to say this first.
I've never dated someone that wasn't fully English speaking.
You know?
Have you seen someone for a few weeks?
Probably.
I don't know.
Probably.
Okay.
The thing about that is that if there's one of them, you would remember.
If there's zero of them, you might say probably.
No, I mean, I've been with women that are foreign, obviously.
But I've seen them twice, three times probably.
Right, okay, yeah.
But I don't think I've ever...
I feel like there is a barrier well of course there is no no but but the language barrier now i understand but i i i
think i put it on more than that i think that i think that i i probably am like too harsh on it
because i think that i would have a subconscious thing that wouldn't be open to that
because i would think how am i going to communicate with this person period when were you so you know
in any relationship that you're in you like need there to be a specific understanding of yeah humor
yeah exactly yeah so like a lot of people aren't really like that and anyway even americans for
sure yeah and i think if you got over the hump of the initial difficulty
of getting to know someone
without like speaking one another's
language like actual languages
I think it might actually
be somehow beneficial because
think about it I mean this is just
totally theoretical I've never I've only like
seen people for very
brief periods of time like we're talking like
a month or two that are like,
that don't,
that don't speak English as the first language.
It's,
I agree.
It's very,
very difficult.
But obviously people are different.
I think that the,
wow,
I totally forgot what I was going to say.
That's okay.
What was I starting to say?
I wasn't listening.
I have stuff,
you know?
Oh,
you weren't listening.
Cool.
Thanks,
man.
Oh, no, this is what I'm going to say. I think that once you get over that initial hump, now that you know oh you weren't listening cool thanks man uh oh no
this is what i'm gonna say i think that once you get over that initial now that you know what you're
gonna say you're gonna wow man you know trying to make me forget what i was gonna say so bad
you you might end up in a place that it's somewhat in a way beneficial because you can chalk
things up to miscommunication that's the main that's a big deal yes that's the big thing
initial instinct was to be like well i doubt she meant it this way it's probably just the
language you could do you're getting so much help i thought you said have sex with your sister
i thought you said steal your money and drain your bank account you could save your feelings
so often you could be like oh that doesn't hurt my feelings she probably meant something else
even if she meant like fuck you you smell you could be like, oh, that doesn't hurt my feelings. She probably meant something else. Even if she meant like, fuck you, you smell.
You could be like, she probably, she doesn't know what smell means.
Like she didn't mean to say that word.
She meant, you know what I mean?
Like you could chalk it up to any, like any of that shit you could say is just a miscommunication.
So maybe it's beneficial in a way that is unexpected.
That being said, I don't think it's necessarily, like you can't just break up with someone.
If the relationship's fine,
certainly if it's working and both of you are happy,
you can't just end it because long-term,
it seems like inevitably it would be a difficult thing
to have two people...
You know what I mean?
Like, if it's good, it's good.
If it's not, it's not.
And maybe it's not because of the language thing,
but if it's not, the language thing's fine.
Yeah, but then you ask any woman
what the number one thing about, you know, being in relationship would is the important people like so many of them would say
communication you know yeah and they would be right honestly for long term so disrespectful
dude he's like you know what ready for another one um anthony just thought we were leaving that
in leave that in don't think no god is heartbroken by a Japanese girl and refuses to think about it for one more
second.
And is looking at something that she gave him.
Yeah.
So did you see the thing where, by the way, how come it's considered racist for, you know,
if I were to like, oh, that's racist.
You're doing an Asian accent.
You know, people would say that. People would say that. you're doing an asian accent you know people would
say that people would say that but yeah yeah i guess they would say whatever it's not but we
don't know we also don't have to even talk about it because what i'm going trying to do is bring
up this thing did you see the thing did i send it to you you know how like if if i say speak russian
or or whatever you're like what does a russian guy suddenly go or whatever the fuck you know
oh you did send me,
I know what you're going to say,
yeah.
Bro,
I never thought about
what it's like
for,
like,
you can do that with English.
What he's going to say is,
he sent me a Middle Eastern man
and a,
saying like,
this is how
Americans,
English people sound.
But the point is
i never thought about when they say do a guy like speak speak cantonese
like i didn't ever think about what that might sound like to a somebody in china
sure you know what i'm saying yeah but you mean and then on the english right in the reverse
what does that sound like for us in english well that guy yeah we should send it so you could play
it yeah it was so funny dude it was an it was in uh it's on instagram right yeah i sent it to you
on it yeah there it is here i'm going to send it to you actually i'll just do it here wow
bro that's so weird
that is weird
I never thought about that
yeah
and I'm a smart guy
that thinks about a lot of things
well why would you think about that though
if you think about it
because I've done the other way
I've gone
wait you mean to tell me you've never thought i wonder how americans sound
to people in other countries no that's not what i haven't thought of okay what i haven't thought of
is other foreigners could do what they thought an english person sounds like. But if someone said, this guy can do that,
you would think, oh, I haven't thought of that.
You wouldn't think, oh, that doesn't sound possible, right?
No.
Okay, yeah.
You're just saying it hasn't crossed your mind.
It hasn't crossed my mind.
Well, that makes sense.
And that guy's really good at sounding American.
It's crazy.
In a 45 rocket launcher.
What I found weird about that was that my brain yeah
help but tried to make out words from bro my brain was fucked yeah right listening to the first time
i didn't even understand what the guy was doing i thought he was speaking yeah i know yeah yeah
isn't that weird yeah yeah yeah it is weird i guess that's how good he is yeah yeah he sounds
just like an american he sounds like a radio host which is what obviously he's
taking it from
not to take any credit from him
anyway let's do another one
we'll get into the one that Anthony was trying to push on us
okay finally Anthony you can play it
fell asleep
hey Matt hey Chris I'm wondering what's the right way to respond to someone
who's extremely aggressive and rude
and threatening to you this doesn't tend to happen to me at all so i never really know what to do but recently it happened
a couple times one time in particular i took my dog out to poop and then i didn't clean up the
poop in the bushes and then this guy yelled from his door at me and he said clean up your dog's
shit i stepped in it last night and so i apologized to him and immediately went to clean it up and
then he said i'll fucking make you eat it next time okay so i cleaned up the poop and then i
didn't really know what to do after that. And I was confused.
So I just went over to his door a few minutes later,
asked him what was wrong, explained the situation.
He was super apologetic after that.
Nice.
And then we resolved it.
And I started cleaning the poop more regularly anyways
after that, because that was my mistake.
But I kept replaying the situation later down the line
and wondering if I should have been aggressive back
or even not accommodated him
because he was being such an asshole about it.
And I'm wondering if there are times when someone's such an asshole that
actually demands being an asshole in return, or should one always be nice? I tend to be a
pacifist and just friendly with everybody, even if someone's being a total asshole.
But I wonder, have you guys ever encountered a situation like that and felt it's not even
right to be nice back because this person's such a dick? That is so dick that he said that after
the thing. But also, you never know what people are going through you know like what if
that guy's fucking family just died you don't know and you would feel deep empathy for that
and you'd be like oh that's why he's doing that and i'd feel bad for that it's interesting that
you called in for advice when it is clear that the way you handled that was the right way
yeah 100 to a t the perfect way to do it because he ended up apologizing to you what here's the
thing your experience with that guy is proof that there i would say there are very rare exceptions
to this but it's proof that it's never in your best interest to meet aggression hyper aggression
in this case with hyper aggression because it'll never go any place good but i obvious if you're
asking is it ever warranted or even understandable to meet hyper regression with hyper regression of
course because hyper regression we get defensive we feel attacked and we want to either
get super defensive
and go on the attack
or run.
Also, definitely.
But people don't typically
do the latter.
Also, not just necessarily.
The answer is absolutely yes,
you should
when it doesn't always
have to do with you.
Like if there's a lady near you
that's going through something
that somebody's doing,
hyper-aggression,
or your kids.
Oh, right. Absolutely. So the answer is of course there are exceptions to the rule of like
you should never meet hyper regression with hyper regression but your experience is literally the
perfect and as we say proof is in the pudding oh yeah exactly as we all say all the time the proof
is is inside the puddings the proof is literally inside the puddings.
Yeah.
Okay.
And also, that is... What the...
That's so bitch to be like, after the guy was like, oh, I'm so sorry.
You're like, yeah, I'm going to eat this up.
Because you know it's not going to turn into a thing.
Because you know you got a nice guy.
Totally, dude.
It's like...
He wouldn't have done it if you were...
Yeah.
Yeah.
Dude, I hate that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What the fuck does the proof is in the pudding oh dude something happened you're just gonna whiz
by that huh no it made me think oh oh okay i was an asshole to someone recently and i'm a lot better
at dealing with things now that i've done a that I'm in therapy and I think about things more.
But so I was, my car, fuck, I did this thing where I was driving somewhere.
I think it was to the gym.
I'm really buff.
And as I was driving to the gym, I was like, oh, I got to get gas on the way home.
Right?
I'm not going to do it on the way to the gym
because I want to get to the gym.
Got to the gym,
did the gym,
got in the car,
drove all the way home,
forgot.
Right?
Of course,
naturally.
We knew that's what was going on.
Yeah,
I do.
My shit's on zero.
So I'm like,
okay,
this is,
I,
I,
I'll probably make it to the gas station,
but I got to make make sure next time you
next time i leave you have to down the hill i'll go in neutral like right so i'm like okay
do that we leave town i don't drive for 10 days i'm sick so so i get in the car and I'm like, oh shit. Yeah. Bad feeling. Been there.
Is this, is this, does it even matter that I didn't drive for 10 days?
Did the gas, you know what I mean?
Like maybe it can't help.
So I go to, to the gym again, right?
You don't get gas?
No, I do.
But I have to go to the gym.
Oh, okay.
Yeah. I'm like, I gotta go to the gas my car stops driving whoa dude that's never happened to me it's happened
to me two times two times yeah damn dude what a bad feeling that must be i'm on i'm on a street
a very busy busy street pull over to the middle of the street it's like got you know the suicide
lanes i guess you call it right is that what you call it? I don't know.
I know what you're talking about.
You know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, that's what you call it.
Anyway, I'm in the middle.
There's one.
There's two things.
Two this way, two this way.
I'm on the middle one.
And I got to put the hazards on.
Wow.
So I'm like, what do I do?
Well, you know what to do. I know what to do i know what to do i gotta go get gas yes yeah but i'm like should i walk there should i leave the car i don't want the car to get hit like it's just here it'll
probably be okay but you don't know if you're a triple a member you call triple a have them bring
gas but yeah sure okay i which i am but i was kind of close enough to the gas station where I'm just going to Uber there and then Uber back.
Clever.
I get to Uber.
I take the thing.
I buy a canister of gas.
I fill it up.
I get another Uber back.
Try to make sure that Uber doesn't spill.
I don't want to fucking...
Oh, God.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I get back.
The guy's so nice.
The guy's like,
oh, is this your car?
You want me to help?
I was like,
oh, don't worry about it. He's like, are you sure? I can help. I mean, that's racist that you're doing his accent, but yeah. But that's so nice. The guy's like, oh, is this your car? You want me to help? I was like, oh, don't worry about it.
He's like, are you sure?
I can help.
I mean, that's racist that you're doing his accent, but yeah.
But that's what his accent was.
I'm kidding, dude.
And so I say, oh, don't worry about it.
I can do it.
He's like, okay.
And then I go to leave.
I get there.
The guy does a U-turn.
He goes, here's some water.
Like, just the nicest guy in the world.
Yeah, okay, yeah.
I go, fuck you. No, I'm kidding so that's where i was a dick so i i get the thing i put the
gas gas in the thing i kind of figure out how to do it it's not really working but then i finally
figure out how to do it good uh and i'm like in the meantime i'm like people are like hey man love you you know what i mean
oh really and i'm like oh really help people do it to me i don't need to help i don't need to

I forgot to say.
Oh, boy.
Before this, I stink like gas.
I go into the gas station to attend the guy.
I say, hey, man, can I use your bathroom?
This is before I go to even get the gas.
Oh, wow.
He says, we can't.
What?
And I say.
We can't?
You don't need help.
Yeah. Solo mission, dude.
Yeah, dude, yeah.
Can I just use your bathroom, dude, please?
And he goes like this, we don't have one.
And I know he's got one, obviously, because it's for employees only.
Oh, right, yeah.
And I go like this, buddy, really?
And he was like, yeah, we can't.
So then I go back out.
So you're already pissed.
As much as I can deal with it, the guy's not do it but you know what i am dude i get the rules
if the rule is you don't let somebody even if he's been a tv star even if he's a huge comedian
you don't let him use but i don't want special preferences okay cool i get the rules i totally
get the rules i get the rules yeah so i'm surprised frankly that you don't get the rules but you do
okay i do i get the rules i stink i stink like shit with the gasoline i'm like all right i'll figure it out a different way i go when the credit card didn't work
right but here's the problem with that you got nobody to be mad at so what happens so you i go
back and i say hey
can i uh
can i uh the thing doesn't work the guy says this is where it just it was it it was like the levees
yeah the dam broke too much weight against it he says did you try a credit card what else would you try oh dude singing for it dude
and i said yeah i tried the fucking credit card like that okay yeah yeah yeah yeah
does it work or what right here 20 on a fucking five right yeah and i got 20 on five i went in
there stink like shit i walked into the restaurant next
to watch the thing but i was a dick to that guy oh okay and that's my threshold and that made me
think of that okay i mean that's been such a bigger dick to people for such less than really
in very recent memory yeah oh really oh yeah yeah yeah not me yeah i i mean i very recently was a huge huge huge dick to the fucking parking
lot attendant that we park in to come here really yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i mean killed him you
know just it was when you got here and the blood's still like this
yeah no i'm i and i always feel bad about it i got a temper problem you know that yeah i know
but it's fucking weird though like it's weird you at least had like you could look back and
think oh well this is what happened and why i was so pissed and it was all leading the guy didn't
let your point which is a good one you never know what people are going through you that wasn't in
isolation you yelling at the gas station attendant that was why i brought
it up just that happened and you were that big of a dick you'd be a huge asshole i would never
guy in duress who's had it up to friggin friggin ass here you know you never know what we're going
to do and not that like a you know you're saying that you're literally saying that about something
you said though which is not great you're saying oh yeah that's so interesting you never know what
people going through you said so interesting it's so great. You're saying, oh yeah, that's so interesting. You never know what people are going through.
You said- I'm so interested.
That's so interesting I brought that up
and I said that in such a way.
But yeah,
it's true,
man.
Nobody is just,
or not nobody,
it's just very rare
that a dick is a dick
for no,
like without any lead up,
without any other context
that is necessary to consider.
Like just a dick for dick's sake,
Cruella deille type shit is rare
there's a bad guy in a 90s action movie yeah it's just rare dude i don't like him for no reason yeah
i love those are my favorite characters the guy the guy the characters who don't like each other
for no reason is one of the funniest tropes in hollywood yeah you know i'm talking about yeah
it's better when i mean it's a better when a bad guy is understandable that's a better dude it's so fucking funny to me when there's a guy that's
just i i god i love that i love that so much but can you think of one or what no because there's
so many you know i'm saying yeah i mean they still do that kind of you know yeah they do
they're just bad guys i know rotten people yeah yeah all right anyway we could do another one next
what's up chris what's up matt uh this is the guy who lied about the girl who sneezed
pause it small update on that what happened this is the, one of the best actual submissions ever, I think.
This guy didn't tell his new girlfriend that he was traveling abroad
with his best friend who was a girl.
Oh, dude, this was great, yeah.
And she called him one night
and they were sleeping in the same room
as friends.
Like this guy literally is not
bangeranging on this girl at all.
And she,
while he was on the phone with his new girlfriend sneezed
and it ruined and i think he's about to give us an update so yeah yeah yeah and his girlfriend's
like who's that why have you not told me that you're on a trip and it turned into a big fight
yeah shouldn't have lied was dumb go ahead yeah
situation did not work out she ended up getting back with her ex-husband who
actually cheated on her.
Oh, wow. So weird way things work.
But new question for you.
My mom or my grandma, right, will always like do me a favor or tell me they'll do something for me.
And they'll kind of mess it up or they'll jack it up or not do it right.
And it's something I could have done myself.
Not really a big deal.
It was nice of them to offer to do it for me.
No, you don't have to.
But it kind of created more work now that it was done wrong
or I have to redo it or didn't set aside time to do it
because I thought it was going to get done.
Super easy to understand.
But then I'm the asshole because I'm pissed about it, right?
So what should I do in those situations
when somebody offers to do a favor
and then they do it wrong or they jack it up?
Do I have any right to be mad?
Jack it up.
I don't know.
Let me know.
Thanks, guys.
I love how he says mess it up or jack it up.
Those are two different things.
They mess it up or jack it up or goof it up.
I get it, but what did he say about his mom or grandma?
What did that mean?
He said that they do that.
His mom and his grandma do this? Yeah, apparently, i guess okay like no i just didn't hear that yeah
okay like like hey i'm gonna build a shelf i'll build it for you and they fuck it up right
grandma's building him a shelf that's your issue um yeah i mean do you have a right to be mad at
them again if you're not specific it just depends on the favor. If you want something done right, do it yourself. This is basically what... And here's why.
Very straightforward reason.
Nobody cares as much as you.
Unless it's a pay job and the people care about their paycheck.
But generally speaking, nobody...
And it's not even their fault.
Nobody could care as much as you.
You're you.
Of course you care more about the thing that you want to happen in your life than anyone else it's not their life as much as they could care they could never fully
take on the amount of care that you have that being said can you be mad at someone it's context
dependent what did they do and how bad did they fuck up if somebody says hey uh like if it's like
this right chris i know you're busy let me pick up calvin from school for to help
you out that day i know kristen's out of town well whatever you got a ton of stuff to do if
she's out of town she's not cheating and then and then i have and then i'm like 45 minutes late yeah
and i make calvin wait in like a place that might even be potentially unsafe he has every right to
be absolutely furious with me but like is it that kind of thing or is it like
oh wait you need to hang up a thing on your wall in your house i'll do it for you when i do it a
little bit crooked like then you don't get mad at me that's unforgivable right like it just depends
it depends yeah it depends true that's actually the only point you need to make that's why i wanted
to be specific right like what is the thing and i get it now and you fucked up you fucked up he
fucked up dude you should apologize you know what he fucked up and then he fucked up the sneezing
thing he fucked let's not forget about that you thought that was i remember we disagreed about
that you thought it was unforgivable that she sneezed it is i i understand well we don't need to rehash
it but i remember thinking but a sneeze is a sneeze it's like the most god's will thing that
you know it's coming can't not see you know it's coming dude okay yeah but for how long sometimes
longer than our face in the fucking pillow dude you're in a hotel room but she didn't he didn't
explain properly the necessary...
He should have been like,
hey, you can't make a fucking sound.
It's his fault.
He didn't?
The whole thing is his fault.
The whole thing is his fault.
See, this is the thing that I don't like
about things that are faults, people's faults.
It's his fault completely, 100%.
But it's secretly also her fault.
But see, this is exactly what we got in the argument
I was saying
it's only his fault
you were saying
of course it's mainly
his fault
but in this instance
the sneeze thing
was her fault
I don't agree
I think it's all
secretly you know
I think it's all
his fault
you get up to heaven
and God knows
but he's like
but you're on thin ice
you know
right it's unspoken
we understand
you messed up
we're letting you in here
but that was a hell sneeze right a hell sneeze dude wow uh all right
you got another one or no that could be the episode title yeah it's a good one what's up
matt and chris love you both like your show uh my question is about my allergy it is you know
when you go into an office and there's a sign and it's like, please don't wear your perfume because people have allergies.
You're like, that's not real. That's me.
I work in an office where people use way too much
Febreze in the bathroom. It happens every day.
They use like 10 seconds of Febreze and then the whole office is like a
Febreze office and it makes
me like want to puke, it gives me a headache, even worse it gives me a migraine.
Oh no.
And I don't know how to address that.
Can you tell someone not to use Febreze in the bathroom?
Yeah.
I also sound like a wimp being like, perfumes make me sick.
So what would you guys say?
Dude, first of all, let me just say i agree with you i fucking hate perfume
so much and i think it it makes me sneeze i can't stand when people dude i i could see someone i
haven't seen in a long time hug them and if it's a woman i'd be like oh hey and dude i had a vest
that i liked that i like this i knew this she. She was at the laugh factor. This woman, she was like, Hey, I've been a long time.
She hugged me.
I couldn't wear that fucking vest any more.
Dude.
Couldn't you wash it?
It was like a weird material.
I know, but dry clean it.
I don't think it helped.
I think I did.
And I don't think it helped.
Whoa.
It was horrible, but not all perfume is like that.
But dude, oops.
When?
Just now? You you know it's amazing
that that's never
happened to me
and it happens to you
all the time
it's really interesting
it's not my fault
it's secretly Anthony's fault
okay keep going
no it sucks
that
I find
perfume
offensive
I find Febreze
offensive
I find
listening to music in a car offensive if you're
with someone you're basically saying hey i know how i know the best way to hang out which one
the music thing and the smelling i know what the best smell is i got it everyone
well that that is a good point but i have a question you're a fucking
asshole if you're like you're basically the guy taking the guitar at the party
that's what you do when you're putting perfume on right i agree actually but yes dude here's
the thing though why can't people use the right amount of perfume what is going on i'm not sure
there is the right amount but yes you are right going on? I'm not sure there is the right amount,
but yes, you are right.
There are people that, it's crazy. Why can't you just do the tiniest drop
because it's enough?
It's so crazy, dude.
People who use a lot,
how do you not notice, dude?
It's like you're bombing every place you go.
It's crazy.
You're an awful person.
You're like a fucking,
you're like Bigfoot.
You're like Bigfoot.
You walk in the room and you re You're a Nazi People feel like this
Ah this is beauty
This is great
Dude what you're supposed to do is
Buy a swing set
Set up the swing set
Put it in your backyard
Hire someone to go outside
And fucking stand with a perfume bottle
You get swinging
And when you get really high
You go at the top fucking
folk fulcrum you go spray it they spray it and then you swing into the perfume that's it that's
the right you get one shot dude and then the guy goes home you pay him and then you fucking go to
work anything more than one spray of perfume anything more than buying a swing set setting
it up,
hiring a butler to spray that one spray
when you're at the absolute top of the fulcrum,
dude, and swing into it.
Love saying fulcrum.
You are basically an Armenian.
You're putting too much perfume on.
Period.
Yeah.
If you want perfume,
have enough money to get a swing set too.
What are these people thinking
when they spray more than one spray though?
What's going on?
More than one spray.
That's what I'm saying though.
More than one spray.
Yeah, yeah.
People do sprays.
I've never dated someone who uses perfume,
so I honestly can't even...
I have.
And you know what I do?
No.
I say,
this is something that needs to stop. I don't mean to be controlling. I don't mean I have and you know what I do I say this is a
something that needs to stop
I don't mean to
I'm not controlling
I mean to be controlling
I can't be around the perfume
yeah it's like
it gives me
all that should
need to be said
is it gives me a headache
and perfume does give people
but here
and they stop
because I lay the hammer down
right okay well
not because I lay the hammer
no because they
because they respect you
because they say
oh that
I'd rather be feared than loved, though, right?
No, not me.
I'm like, let's see.
Here's the thing, though.
There's something worse than perfume.
And it's called cologne.
There is no cologne.
You're saying cologne is perfume for men?
That's right.
Congratulations.
If you wear cologne, you are now a woman wearing perfume.
No, you're a man wearing perfume. You are a woman woman wearing perfume. No, you're a man wearing perfume.
You are a woman now.
Congratulations.
Isn't that weird, though, that it is literally the exact same thing?
It's the same thing.
What is it?
Smell more manly?
They're called different things.
It's like if me and a woman were on a date and we both ate a steak and I called it something
different just because I'm a man and she's a woman.
I had fish.
What?
I had fish, but it's a steak. I'm a man and she's a woman i had fish what i had fish but it's a steak i'm a man
no i had steak you had yabba dabba doobie lost your fucking absolute mind snap right before you
said yabba dabba doobie actually that is a steak isn't it no it's a yabba dabba doobie but it's
the same thing we're both in the same thing well i'm a woman i call it a yabba dabba doobie i'm a
woman yeah you're a woman yeah I thought you were saying something different.
Yeah, dude.
I don't...
I don't...
God, this is weird.
I hate smells, any smells, honestly.
I'm confused now.
Why are we called different things?
Kristen will put out a fucking...
candle.
And it's like, it doesn't smell nice.
And it's like, yeah, in passing, if you just...
Okay, cool cool but don't
light it you light it i'm done what are you gonna do with the candle not light it and just have it
out and smells nice actually yeah or don't even have i agree that some candles are overloaded on
scent but like a nice candle is is never too strong like the expensive candles are like very mild i disagree well no but i didn't mean
anything by it uh should we do one more is there one more yeah let's do it hey guys been watching
the show for a little while mustache really enjoy it one thing that i've noticed is you guys talk a
lot about movies yeah and i've noticed something about myself recently where I will watch a movie based on the reviews.
So if I see things on social media, like a movie's really popular, then I'll check it out.
But if there is a movie that I'm interested in, I'll go check out like Rotten Tomatoes or IMDb or whatever and see what people are saying about those movies.
And I won't just watch a movie based on my own interests or something this is already i curious
if you guys do that or what you think about that let me know it's a great question you are the man
dude it's great you asked such a good question this is all of these have actually been pretty
good questions even the first guy who asked nothing and said nothing first one was a horrible
question uh well there was no question it was just saying thank you for
way too long we appreciate it though um reviews in general now this hasn't always been the case
but it is true now that almost i would say 98 of reviews you find on the internet are literally
this some random man or woman who you've never met
never will meet and very well could have nothing in common with at all writing something that is
the equivalent of them saying i like this movie or i don't like this movie now why that should
matter to some random moviegoer with totally different interests
and whatever interests unto themselves only, nothing to do with the person who wrote it,
it's mind-boggling why someone like this guy who obviously lives in Alaska would care what
some movie critic in Seattle or New York or LA thinks about fucking Salt Burn.
If it looks interesting to you, see it.
If it doesn't, who gives a fucking shit what someone at moviefone.com thinks?
Hey, welcome to moviefone.
Remember that shit?
No.
What is that?
No clue.
Wouldn't you call?
Oh, God.
I mean, very vaguely.
Welcome to moviefone. They would tell you the movie times yeah oh no you
go you go press nine for mickey blue eyes mickey blue eyes you hit nine dude whenever there's an
it'd be like 740 an opportunity to bring up a movie from yep bygone times you always say mickey
blue eyes and that's very weird uh and a robot you couldn't i mean i could like
what's a better movie to pick like i fucking a stick by thinking of mickey blue no it's good
yeah you did good you know it's another good one jumanji um that's a good one i recently watched
jumanji let me tell you guys something i know it's for kids obviously adventure movies whatever
it is the shittiest thing.
The original one.
Well, I'm sure the reboot is even worse.
But who would ever watch that?
You're dealing with the one with Rob Mullen.
Not even The Rock and his eight gajillion fans,
none of them watched Jumanji, even though he's in it.
No one saw Jumanji.
No one saw the actual movie, even though it exists.
Kevin Hart's in it.
Kevin Hart is in it.
Jack Black.
Kevin Hart is literally in everything.
Is The Rock not in Jumanji?
He is.
He is, right?
Yeah, he is.
Oh, I don't know.
Who knows?
The Rock and Kevin Hart
are in so many things together.
But yeah, no one saw the remake.
But it's so bad.
It was like mind-bogglingly bad.
Yeah.
Isn't Ben Stiller in it?
No, Robin Williams.
Oh, that's Night at the Museum.
Right, right.
Right, right, right.
Which Robin Williams is also in
um oh right that's what i'm thinking of uh so hold on okay jumanji robin williams is in jumanji
correct okay and it's really bad terrible wow i gotta look at it um so i gotta utterly utterly
utterly terrible and so is kirsten dunst is in it it's like a kid oh yeah um and this is a great
and an ape question what do you a great question. And an ape, isn't it?
What do you think about what the guy said?
I think you should only go see things that pique your interest.
Right, but that's not exactly answering his question.
Yeah, it is, no?
But is that pique your interest because other people said it?
Oh, no, because you think it looks interesting.
The trailer looks interesting.
Or the synopsis.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't, I mean. You know what you like better than you know you like but you don't know
what you like before it happens though so i do understand his question is like
like there is some sort of reason to oh man everyone's talking about this movie it must be
good different different if if if if you hear a bunch of people being like oh man this movie
of course yeah of course like participating culture if you feel like so inclined participating
culture but you don't you don't say oh the new the new jumanji reboots yeah what is leonard
malton i'm gonna go to to moviephone.com and see whatever that critic welcome to movie meanwhile
by the way movie critics now are just people with computers.
Well, right.
I know.
It's somebody with 300 followers on Twitter.
It's crazy.
Like if you go to see
who are like verified movie critics
on Rotten Tomatoes,
which is the worst.
I mean, there are bad.
Rotten Tomatoes is the worst.
There are bad aggregator sites
and then there's Rotten Tomatoes.
That is the most piece of shit
wipe your ass.
When I see some shit 100% fresh,
I want to fucking saw my testicles off.
Here's the deal.
There's one best rated movie of all time on Rotten Tomatoes.
Do you know what it is?
Wait, Deadpool?
No.
What?
Paddington 2.
Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of critics
reviewed Paddington 2
and gave it a positive review. There isn't one negative review of Pad paddington 2 and gave it positive a positive review there isn't one
negative review of paddington 2 on rotten tomatoes there are hundreds of reviews of
paddington 2 have you seen it it's unbelievable oh dude no i mean like what uh yeah i didn't know
wrong right the thing about rotten tomatoes is and i've always said this is
the people who rate the movie the specific movie that they're rating either love it or hate it
nobody is just hey gotta go on my rotten tomatoes account and rate all these movies it's it's the
the it's that seven rings or ten rings movie the marvel one
the asian one that everyone thought was so amazing on rotten tomatoes okay it's a pile right of
heaping tan liquidy dog shit okay it's so it's so bad, it got 100%.
Did it really?
Okay.
Because all of the Asians are like, finally.
Oh, you mean the users?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
I thought you meant, okay, yeah.
We're talking about different things, but yeah.
And then, of course, because of that, and it came out during this No Asian Hate, a lot
of the critics were like, we love it.
Sure, yeah.
But the user ones are the worst ones.
Well, that's even worse than a movie critic
because they're just doing the same thing,
but they don't know how to write or think.
So they're just like, I liked it.
I liked it.
But here's the thing.
Movie-going experience isn't always so binary.
You don't either love or hate movies.
In fact, how often do you love or hate a movie?
It's rare.
Salt Burn's a great example of it.
I was like, I don't know, the whole whole movie and then i was like yeah okay i like the
ending and i think i liked it honestly that's as good as any movie criticism you will read today
what my brother just said about supper yeah that is the depth of of uh criticism that you go that
you get when you go to these popular movie sites like i don't even know
it's moving on a thing anymore probably move on but whatever those kinds of things you know maybe
ash there are some movie critics that are still interesting but it's really they're really hard
to find slant magazine is interesting but it's it's dead movie criticism is dead movies are
almost dead it doesn't bro i saw this review this is such a guy the guy always reviewed my specials bad
and he he there are comedy special review things god wow i didn't even know that that is the
dumbest agree because you're just saying is it funny or is it not funny to you exactly that's
what i'm saying yes this guy was reviewing matt rife special and it was like trashing matt rife
of course and you're saying of course because that's not because that's the thing to do right This guy was reviewing Matt Rife's special, and it was like trashing Matt Rife. Of course.
And you're saying, of course, because that's not because Matt. That's the thing to do right now.
Yeah, no, I don't think Matt's not funny.
No, I know.
But it's so, and then somebody just took a screenshot of the guy's profile picture and replied to it.
And it's like, of course this guy doesn't like matt
rife oh he's a fucking bald fat loser and matt rife's like the most handsome that just fucking
thinks he knows comedy who is and writes i don't even know i don't want to say his name i honestly
don't i don't even know is he just a guy that review that you know he's a guy he's oh you see
him around mont Montreal and shit,
like the festival.
Oh,
oh,
oh.
And he'd always review my shit bad.
He obviously doesn't like a guy like me.
Right.
He obviously doesn't.
He's a short,
fat,
bald,
fucking loser.
Well,
there are,
I'm sure there are plenty of short,
fat,
bald losers who do like you though,
so I don't know.
Of course,
I love fat,
bald losers.
Yeah,
me too.
But this fat,
bad loser,
I don't like.
Right,
of course.
And because of that
i'll call him a fat ball loser i see i see i see you know but it's like it's like dude it's it's so
it's so and i saw he didn't like my right i was like oh here this fucking guy goes again dude
and he matt's the biggest comedian yeah he's huge so it's like any critique i you it it makes no
sense to ask your friends even at that but that's the best that's your best bet yeah yeah that's
your best bet or just see a thing dude there's no better feeling than not knowing anything i mean
not i literally you took me to see Sexy Beast
when I was like 15,
I think I was when it came out.
And I literally hadn't seen a trailer.
I didn't know a single thing about it.
I didn't even know
who Jonathan Glazer was.
And I was like,
me knowing nothing about it,
seeing a movie in the theater
that's that good,
was like one of the best
movie going experiences of my life.
Yeah, you're welcome.
And yeah, thank you.
And yeah.
But that's obviously hard. You can't just go to the movie theater and yeah thank you uh and yeah but that's obviously hard
you can't just go to the movie theater and be like uh that one paddington three you know um
you got to know a little bit about something but sometimes the less you know the better
that sounds interesting based on a little bit i know about it see that not paddington two
you know i'm saying i agree okay see Okay. See both. Yeah. Paddington 2 is fantastic.
