Starting point is 00:00:00 The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it. Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mentioned only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby? What, Dirty Three?

What's up, Travination? It's still me in Griffin, McRoy. Sorry, I'm not more Travis. No, but I granted Griffin, diplomat community within Travination.
Starting point is 00:01:34 Travination. Yeah, Travillomatic community. He's an ambassador from the Democratic Republic of Griffin. I hopped on to the Trab nation message board yesterday, and they all call me the week one. Yeah, they all just say like, I didn't like when the week one said the thing about Travis in this last episode.
Starting point is 00:01:55 I don't know why I'm called that. My approval ratings have never been higher, Griffin. I don't know what to tell you. I mean, you look, Travis. You look just a different name. Thank you. Awesome. You look the travelers to travel nation.
Starting point is 00:02:06 That would be a good pivot actually, for the bit. I think you became a sort of psionic sort of explorer of the mind. Oh, I would love that for travel nation. Okay, we can watch on that. I'll run that back. Travelers with the T-R-A-V in all caps is really strong. I think that could be a really powerful new idea. Travelers, welcome.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Gird yourself against the travenges before. We are war. We've, we've, Trave you raised a question with us before we begin recording that I would love to return to and just get our Just really get our thoughts in. Yeah, so I'm very excited tonight.

And I cannot decide, and I asked my brothers this, where we're at currently, socially, on the consensus of wearing the performers t-shirts
Starting point is 00:03:32 or merch to meet them. Travis said that if we were backstage at one of our shows and someone came back wearing a shirt with one of us on it, that would be a good thing, to which I instantly responded just that I said that I just and I feel that you feel that if someone walked up on you and they're like what's up. I'm talking to you, but you're also on me. It's an increasingly fractured media landscape, right? It's not as though I'm, I'm, I'm, let's step back, let them go off. Cook.
Starting point is 00:04:05 It's not as though I'm Mick Mick or Jagger or one of the other guys in the band, right? And you come up to me with the big lips and what all. I'm not going to be moved by that. Yeah, man, it's the rolling stone. But I feel like in this increasingly fractured media landscape, I feel like in this increasingly fractured media landscape, you're communicating a lot by having a Kesha T-shirt. This is not, it's all very fragment. And you don't think I'm communicating that by being at the show, at a meet-up. She doesn't know you from fucking out of man.
Starting point is 00:04:39 She's gonna see you there and she's gonna think, this guy is trying to sell something. This guy's gonna think this guy is trying to sell something. This guy is right here and he's trying to sell something. Trying to sell something. We're gonna hang on. We're gonna hang on. We're gonna hang on. We're gonna hang on.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Networking. Networking. I am doing that. I am doing that. I am doing that. What? I am doing that. I am doing that.
Starting point is 00:05:02 I am doing that. What? I am doing that. I am doing that. I am doing that. I am doing that. I am doing that. his friend. But if Kesha knew, honestly, Travis, if Kesha knew what a treacherous situation she had entered into with just the friendship tractor beam that you are going to lay out, none are spared. Eddie, Eddie Isard was not spared. Travis does not spare people. I'm very charming. What? I'm very charming. I'm very, very, very, very charming, a very interesting thing. You are relentlessly charmed. Okay. Relentlessly charmed. I'll take that.
Starting point is 00:05:27 Don't you think Kisha is gonna have her head on a swivel for that? I feel like Kisha is going to not want to bro down unless it's like real. And I'm not saying that it won't be from you, but I'm just saying that the barrier of entry there is going to be high and understandably so. Well, when you reach a certain level of fame, like Kesha and I have, like I think you can relate to each other on that level, right? I'm just like, yeah, I get it.
Starting point is 00:05:59 And I get it too, but we can be ourselves with each other. No, but she can't be herself with you. If you if you have a Kesha T-shirt on, unreal. Oh, damn it. Yeah, I also think, Trevor, I think the vibe backstage at the Kesha show is going to be different from the post-show vibe backstage at the McAroy family show. Because I can tell you, yes. Yes. Friend, if you've never been backstage after McWorda Family Show, here's how it works.
Starting point is 00:06:25 You come back and we start begging you to eat the fruit and vegetables that we asked for, but did not consume. The unobent box of cheeses. We are trying to gain food away from our people. Yeah, in case our children's food didn't make it on time for dinner, we have the box of cheeses. Right, emergency. Yeah, so we're trying to like give you food and we're looking around
Starting point is 00:06:45 awkwardly like how can we make you more comfortable this me at least like what are they having a good time? What can I do to help them have more fun? Will they please drink some of these Cokes that is it weird how is it weird how tired I am being is I'm weird how tired? I know how tired I am and how I want to lay down and what part of that do you think will be different with Kesha so Kesha you will get close to You won't get that's the first you're not gonna be anywhere near Kesha. That's first. No, okay? That's the first thing that there will be a vibe of like I'm glad there's an adult here amongst all of these teenagers because I have to assume I'm Kesha's oldest fan. And they're like, and she's like, I feel safe that my dad is here. He's gonna protect me from all these. That's a weird thing. Trouble energy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Troubling, troubling. Even to do here in the podcast. Even here and now. I don't understand. This Kesha free zone. That's still not enough. You don't think that the fact that I'm an older, responsible adult. Prasal.
Starting point is 00:07:44 No. That's not gonna help. That's not what I, no, the weird part is when you said you wanted to be Kesha's dad. the fact that I am an older responsible adult. Proud of you. That's not gonna help. That's not what I, no, the weird part is when you said you wanted to be Kesha's dad. I think so. I wanted to be Kesha's dad. Says he is Kesha's dad. You would be what Kesha's dad.
Starting point is 00:07:54 I would be what Kesha's dad. I wouldn't do it. I would adopt Kesha. Okay. Okay, you can adopt adults. I told you it's so many fucking times, Travis. I don't mean legally Justin. I am, Kesha is my ward.
Starting point is 00:08:07 This is my ward. This is my psychic. This is my ward Kesha. Wow, Travis deeply upon entering the room. You're gonna be, I think the movie Wains World and Wains World 2 gave people a misguided idea. In Wains World, he walks in to Alice Cooper's guest room and shows his badge and says,
Starting point is 00:08:27 Alice, is this cool? And then he says, yeah, come in and hang out with us. Are you expecting that energy from Kesha? You're like, Kesha, is this cool? And she's like, yeah, come hang out with us. Is that me on your shirt? Of course, come on in. I will say this.
Starting point is 00:08:41 It's an extremely narrow sliver of daylight, but if there is a human being who can and will find it, it is Travis. Travis. Yeah. It is Travis. And I will also say we have mutual friends. Here he goes. So I'm just saying I have here he goes. That's the dust. That's your open dust. That's your open. I get the dust pan out. Get Ray and catch all these names. Let me scoop him on up and the old name does pan.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Everybody's got mutual friends with Kesha. That's a good point. Do they? Few degrees. Travis, are you worried that in concert when she hits that note on Prey and it's gonna be like the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark in there. And just like a wave of forces going to shoot through
Starting point is 00:09:23 everyone and turn them all into gooey skeletons. I think that I saw Kesha live when she hit TikTok, I would be like gesticulating and gyrating in a way that would become hazardous to those around me. I actually was thinking about it today. If she were to do TikTok, your love is my drug and timber back to back to back. I actually think it would cause several deaths.
Starting point is 00:09:47 I think everybody would get so hyped. If people, if people makes a surprise appearance and they do timber together, I have to leave. I actually want to leave. But if she's like, what if you're like dead on the ground, okay, and you're dying and you're trying to get to heaven and then your body, your spirit's pulling up out of your body. And then she's like, this song makes you want to
Starting point is 00:10:06 fuck in my car. And then she does gold trans am. And it's like, I'm getting out of town. I have to go back to my body. Yeah. And they're like Travis, but this is your only chance to be don't go to heaven now. And I'm like, I'm already in heaven.
Starting point is 00:10:17 But the truth is, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, man. I've heard the just like a number of people who go to a Kesha concert and experience just full blown ego death to a line beat so fat gonna make me come. Yeah. Is like the she's batting almost a thousand.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Yeah, everyone here's a line. It's like, oh, I'm a different person. Yeah. And she at the end of that's why at the end of every show she's like, if you have experienced ego death, I am going to recruit you for my cerilium minds. Come, enter the full. You have you have disgraced yourself and you have lost your name. Your name
Starting point is 00:10:50 hasn't happened. I will I will incorporate travel nation into whatever she's got going. I'm all about it. You will be subsumed. Yeah, you will be disordered. Yeah, we will we will become a surf. Just just check and trap. Because I'm gonna keep guessing at this, is the mutual friend between you and Kesha Pitball. You know what, this will be a fun,
Starting point is 00:11:14 I've never played like six degrees of separation with Pitball, but I now I want to. You know the problem with it is you have no fucking clue who Pitball knows, you can't do that. You have to. Yeah. There are people Justin who do like web sleuthing to like salt murders and there are people who do like web sleuthing to like fine missing persons I do web sleuthing to be like do I know anyone who knows this person I'm pretty good at a bit this point oh hey don't feel bad drum I'm Pippel is doing that with you.
Starting point is 00:11:45 You don't have that. Is there a zero percent chance? I want you guys to say, what's happening? Is there a zero percent chance? Yes. That Kesha has ever heard my brother, my brother and me before. Zero percent.
Starting point is 00:11:55 No way. No, no, no, no. If Kesha is Kesha on TikTok, just a name TikTok. If Kesha's been to TikTok, as an inventor, I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question.
Starting point is 00:12:12 I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question. I think it's a good question.'t think it's from my monetarily. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Anyway, so these cheeses for anyone or like, what's the deal? Is this never eaten a cheese it? But that is, they don't know what that's true. I guarantee she is a down to earth chill hang who loves cheeses and like reasonably priced white wine. Can I hit you something, Travis? Maybe, maybe Baker Olofa bread. who loves cheesets and like reasonably priced white wine. Can I hit you something, Travis? Maybe Baker O'Lofa bread.
Starting point is 00:12:49 I thought about it, Justin. She wouldn't eat it. She wouldn't eat it, but I thought it wouldn't. I wouldn't eat it. If Kesha brought you a loaf of bread at the show, you'd eat the Kesha bread. Oh, fuck yeah. You'd have to eat the Kesha bread.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Because if I said I was poisoned by Kesha by ketchup like that I think that's best case scenario Yeah, that's like story for life. You will never lose two truths in a life Why would catch the poison you yeah, I don't know, but she did She did this is just a story for podcast. Yeah, she didn't. I don't want to get her to make confused. No, Kesha has yet to poison me. Well, Travis, I'll need a full report. Griffin, what do you, just real quick,
Starting point is 00:13:35 just to close it off, what do you think the odds are that our brother sees Kesha? Can I tell you something? Can I tell you something? Makes it backstage. That's the first one. Second meets Kesha. Three be friends, Kesha. Can I tell you something? Can I tell you something? Make it backstage. That's the first one. Second meets Kesha. Three be friends Kesha.
Starting point is 00:13:48 If one happens, two will happen. Three might happen. It's a chain. It's a chain reaction. I'm going to say juice. There is a 70% chance that all that shit's going to happen. 70. Yeah. Not in the shirt.
Starting point is 00:14:07 I'm gonna say this, I don't think... If you're gonna have a surface level pleasant interaction with Kesha, the shirt helps. If you want a forge a lifelong friendship with Kesha, that is what the shirt is saying. That's the shirt. I knew you as a fan first. I can never be your friend like that.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Yes, okay. Yes, you've a fan first. I can never be your friend like that. Yes, okay. Yes. You've answered my questions. We have given too much of our wisdom to Travis for free and none of it to our beloved listeners for free. Travis does, but my rights are very reasonable. This is an advice show, okay. And we don't just help each other, we help you too.
Starting point is 00:14:44 If you have a question, an actual advice question, that would be funny to talk about. Look at it, so you can email that to mbmbm at maximumfund.org. We don't see it. We got a lot of good ones this week. I want to try to get through this. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Shout out Griffin. Okay. Let's do it. No, you don't control the pace. I'm the pace. I'm the pace. It's getting weird. There's the weird energy in the pace. I'm the pace. I'm the pace. It's getting weird. There's a weird energy in the studio.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Who's the pace horse? I'm a regular at my local movie theater. Additionally, I'm huge into hot dogs. Oh my God, Travis, let's make a promise right now. We are not going to talk about Bob Mornemore. We are not going to discuss that. I think we also need to put a Joey Chess not more. Yes, we will not talk about
Starting point is 00:15:29 Yeah, and fan great to be alive. Is that it what it's time to be alive? We're not gonna talk about it. You're not gonna listen off. Now listen off menu with Bob Mortimer The best podcast episode you guys literally a gamble We're getting it out of the way so we don't reference it later. Okay, to people. Okay. If I go somewhere theme park train station gift shop and they sell hot dogs, I will get one without question. Wow. With the list list their age, but I can imagine it's very high, right? There's no way someone has made it into their 30s or 40s with this kind of lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Okay. Recently, I've been tempted to get more than one hot dog of the theater, but I don't always want both at once. Would it be acceptable to buy a hot dog on the way out? As I stated earlier, I'm a regular at this point and I know of my penchant for Frank's. Last week, as embarrassing as it is to admit,
Starting point is 00:16:22 I walked into a theater to see Saw X and the employee wave saying, hey, another hot dog boss, fuck embarrassing is too mid. I walked into a theater to see SawX and the employee wave saying hey, another hot dog boss, fuck, that's good. That'd be so cool. Is the embarrassing part seeing SawX? Cause the other part is awesome. That's great. That's the best saw in years. Is it weird to buy a hot dog in the way
Starting point is 00:16:38 album movie theater? That's from Rocky aka the hot dog boss. I heard in SawX that guy has to cut off and eat his own but to get the key out of it. Wow. Yeah. There's an episode of Off-Mini with Bob Mortimer
Starting point is 00:16:51 where he says he goes into movie theaters just to get the hot dog sometimes. So if he will do that, I think that is fine to buy one out of your way out. Here's someone who has microwaved those hot dogs before. I think that's not my personal sort of journey that I would wanna go on, we didn't have one of those fancy little rotisserie roller guys.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Yeah. At the theater I worked at, it was mostly just microwaved, bagged sort of super donut hot dogs. Here's what I'll say about this question. What I like about it, we get questions not exactly like this, but in a similar vein,
Starting point is 00:17:24 because there's two different variables. Because you change the framing of the question. You start by saying would it be acceptable by a hot dog? And then is it weird to buy a hot dog on the way out? Because acceptable. Yeah, you're not going to go to prison. They're not going to ban you from the movie theater, right? You're buying the hot dog to eat it on your way out
Starting point is 00:17:44 of the movie theater. You watch the two-hour movie. You got hungry. You had the hot dog to eat it on your way out of the movie theater. You watched a two hour movie, got hungry, you had a hot dog in the beginning, two hours past, a reasonable amount of time. You bought a hot dog to eat it on your way out. Is it weird? Yes, because no one goes to the concession stand at the end of the movie. Does that mean it's so weird you shouldn't do it? No, it's just out of the ordinary. It's just not the norm Have you noticed have you guys ever experienced this time? I think about a lot of the movies the the the mystery of the movie meal You've ever been about to see a movie and it's close to a meal time And you're like I'll eat at the movies and then you get to the movies and they're like we got popcorn and almonds and
Starting point is 00:18:22 Do you want like goobers and stuff? And they do a hot dog, but you're sane. So you're not gonna buy a hot dog at the movie theater. Yeah, or not just eat food at the movies. And then at the end of it, it's like, I don't know what to do meal-wise. Yeah, right. Did I have a meal?
Starting point is 00:18:39 I don't know. I was at a movie. Justin, that's hit me before where I've gone to see like an afternoon,inee, where I have the three o'clock or four o'clock. I've eaten a bunch of popcorn. The movie ends, now it is dinner time, but I've effectively filled my stomach
Starting point is 00:18:55 with food grade like cotton balls or whatever, food grade styrofoam. You've stuffed yourself. When my body's like, I don't want anymore, my stomach says no more food, but my body's like, I don't want anymore. My stomach says no more food, but my body's like, we crave any kind of usable vitamins, calories, anything. Please.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Can I tell you though the bridge that helps you cross that movie break gap? It's called a hot dog. I mean, you heat it at the movie theater. And it's now, now it's a meal. Did I eat a bunch of watermelon flavored sour patch kids and drink like two cherry diet coax from the fancy mix-a-mut machine?
Starting point is 00:19:32 Yeah, I did. Does that a meal make? No, but my friend Hotdog is there to be like, don't worry guys, they're with me. I clearly am part of a meal. I'm a Hotdog. Now, does this apply to nachos? No.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Because Lunchables, I don't know if you guys have seen this, lunchables has a lunchable that's like, it's the perfect meal. Chips and cheese. That's a pretty son and a Kit Kat. And it's like, that's, guys, this is not a lunchable. This is the two that bridged the gap for me, hot dog and pizza, right? Pizza, if someone like, I could, oh, I that brings the gap for me. Ha-Dog and pizza, right?
Starting point is 00:20:05 Pizza, if someone like, I could, oh, I don't have time for anything. I'll eat a slice of pizza. We all agree that pizza is like the fast and go-to meal. You are, you are so. Anytime I've ordered any concession stamp pizza, it is an absolute roll of the dice that almost always comes up snake eyes.
Starting point is 00:20:24 It's probably a bad one. That's usually bad is what I should try to say. It's not an absolute role the dice that almost always comes up snake eyes. It's probably a bad one. That's usually bad is what I should try to say. It's not a role the dice is probably bad. Well, Justin, yes, but I don't want to get angry while I'm watching large man Dominic Toretto punch back guys in the face. So I need some calories to sustain my body. And that's what I'm seeing the pizza as, right? The pizza is like in a video game where it's just like, I'm going to eat a bunch of seaweed
Starting point is 00:20:44 and onion stock or whatever to rebuild my health Your energy enough to hike out of the woods. Yeah, I went and saw a movie. I won't say which one because of the ongoing strike but it was long and pretty boring and about Oppenheimer and I I had it was dinner time and I have pretzel bites and raisinets and I think I discovered a new meal like I was for a car baby. It's not breakfast. It certainly wasn't dinner. Couldn't have been lunch. Wasn't brunch. It was a meal though, but a special secret meal.
Starting point is 00:21:28 I've forced me. This isn't some Taco Bell not trying to sell anything. It's like big like like party snack. Yeah, I had a party snack in the evening time for boys. The party snack for boys after dusk. Hopefully that helps. I don't know. It's okay to eat a hot dog. It's okay to eat a hot dog any time you want. Hey, it's Halloween and basically, and people are, people go searching for fear and terror at this time of year. I don't get it. I've got plenty
Starting point is 00:22:08 of that just sort of going around. But if you like to play scary video games this time of year, I have a wiki how here Tory sent in that is how to avoid getting too scared when playing a scary computer. That's helpful. Because I'm trying to catch up on all the lore at Five Nights at Freddy's before the movie comes out. Yeah. That lore, simple, straightforward. It's a straight line of lore. Don't worry about it. It's easy to keep up with.
Starting point is 00:22:35 They're robots who turn kids into pizza. Yeah. That's all you need. Delicious, delicious pizza. They turn kids into pizza. And the ball picks to the kids. Yeah, and five nights at Freddy's, they turn the kids into pizza.
Starting point is 00:22:50 That's like his love. He's this game so much is like his love pizza. Yeah, they're like, I want to be pizza. And I want the big robot to turn me into it. That's five nights of Freddy's basically. So many players find frightening video games difficult while you may enjoy the thrill of playing a scary game, you may find yourself unpleasantly anxious afterwards.
Starting point is 00:23:09 If you want to reduce fear, play in the right environment. Okay, then it basically summarizes the whole article, which isn't fun, so let's get into it. Step one, keep the lights on. Keep your grades up. Yeah, you can't play video games with bad grades. Yeah, step 1.5. No, computer, computer, gonna go away. Computer, gonna go away. It's homework time.'t play video games with bad grades. Yeah. Step 1.5. No way.
Starting point is 00:23:25 The computer's gonna go away. Computer's gonna go away. It's homework time. Parents are gonna take that computer away if you get bad grades. Yeah. And Freddie won't even play with you if you have your bag. The first thing I had was he brewed up five nights at Freddy's.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Freddy's like, wait, hold on. No, no, no. And he's gonna report hard up to your wife. And just go, Nope. Yeah. It's him and Chuckie cheese, Narcon you out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:43 All right. So yeah, just play with the light on. You know this, this is ain't. How many lights though? That's that we can't just say the light, like in the whole house, because one time I was playing Riven and it was the middle of the day and the lights on and I got spooked by that game. You're still going to get scared, right?
Starting point is 00:24:00 I mean, this is just make it manageable. You're still going to be very frightened. Yeah. Step two, switch off the sound. Music and sound effects can greatly enhance the scary aspects of a computer game. I would say if you are not enjoying playing the computer game, switch off the all of it.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Yeah, I would argue article that while turning off the sound might decrease the scaryness, it might drastically increase the difficulty. Many video games these days do include important sounds, especially scary games when it's like, oh, it's coming, there's a noise, there's a beep. All of that is, maybe there's, now if there is accessibility options
Starting point is 00:24:42 and you can turn on, queues, I mean, yeah, that's nice. That's nice. And then if you're gonna do that, put on some Dave Matthews. Nothing's scary about Dave Matthews unless you're afraid of getting pooped, I'm done, you know? But otherwise, it's a totally safe chill, chill.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Over the odds of that. It happens again. Yeah. And we'll be an extra careful baby. Never get lagged. You know what, it happened. Step three, make the characters do that. Can I ask a serious question, what would you say?
Starting point is 00:25:10 It happened again. That is a question. I say don't bite the mail man. Make the characters do funny things. If you start to get scared during gameplay, see if you can find a way to incorporate humor. Make your character move in a manner that looks like they are dancing.
Starting point is 00:25:22 There's a great way of dealing with any frightening thoughts that I utilize constantly if move in a manner that looks like they are dancing. I love that. I'm dealing with any frightening thoughts that I utilize constantly if I have scary thoughts plaguing me. I just put some like a funny clown nose on it. Whatever. You know what I mean? Some wet pants, oops. So we had an accident.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Yeah. I just picture my younger brother like reacting to being scared of things. And it makes me laugh every time. There's nothing I love more than like that. Like, I'm not getting jump scared in video games. You did several.
Starting point is 00:25:51 What was the one you did that was like the house of a thousand scares? I'm not gonna talk about it. And you got so spooked by the jump scares and it made me so happy because you would get jump scared and then so angry at yourself being jump scared and I make me having a time. I wanna see this, where is this?
Starting point is 00:26:06 I wanna see it. It's a Polygon video, some of the house of a thousand scares. I assume that that sounds like a close to 2018 when I left. So, it was never the same. All right, manage your emotions. What?
Starting point is 00:26:21 Identify what really scares you. You can't just say that like, oh, manage my emotions, right. Come on. Identify what really scares you. You can't just say that like, oh, man, it's my emotions, right. Come on. Identify what scares you. When I see pyramid head in Silent Hill, a game that I once played while listening to switch foot on my disc men to have less scary sounds
Starting point is 00:26:42 and also get a little help from GOD, then I was afraid of pyramid head and his big knife. That was sort of the source of my fear. I must have been so brutal when you're like huddling on a corner and all you can hear is Darry to move. It's like, I can't move. I can't move. I'm just scared of pyramid head.
Starting point is 00:27:02 You're not doing your job for me right now. You can also just re-contextualize and be like, oh, he's not a scary guy. He's just in his like Egyptian phase, but I think like every grade school person with ADHD went through, right? Where it's just like, now, oh, I want to learn everything about a new bus.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Yeah. I've never played the games. I don't know what happens in Silent Hill. It has nothing to do with the fuck you just said. Oh, really? Yeah, well, not a face. Hill. It has nothing to do with the fuck you just said. Oh really? Yeah, not a lot of things. Yeah, it has nothing to do with the pyramids of Egypt or anything like that. Justin, I have shared the video in chat and you can watch it after that.
Starting point is 00:27:34 Thanks, I watch it at my leisure. Yes. How's the jump scares? Gameplay overview with Griffin getting spooked by it. Enjoy everyone. Thanks. Thank you. I love that video.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Imagine yourself playing with out fear. That's cool.. Thank you. I love that video. Imagine yourself playing without fear. That's cool. I like that. Whoa, that's empowering. I like that too. Yeah, visualizing. That's what you really want. I don't understand the perspective though.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Am I standing behind myself, watching myself play without fear? Yes. Yes. That's scary. I just scared myself. Oh no. What am I doing back there? I jumped. This is not frightening, but you gotta be got to be there like you have to be bold as well
Starting point is 00:28:09 Now I'm going to get to myself. I'm Bulldozing myself. I'm standing behind myself watching myself play without fear the me who's playing turns on sees myself get scared They fight the one with fear loses Okay, the one with true. You think the one without fear loses? It's whichever one you feed. Yeah, well I feed both of them. It's me. Yeah, but like just you've only feed one in this.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Like you had a more fortifying meal before the thing? Yeah, you've ever had that before. Scared Travis had a big sandwich. Not scared Travis had some soup. So scared Travis does win. I feel like afraid Griffin's gonna do better in a scrap than not afraid Griffin. I'm not scared Travis has some soup. So scared Travis does win. I feel like afraid Griffin's gonna do better in a scrap than not afraid Griffin.
Starting point is 00:28:49 That is wily. If a bear comes up on not afraid Griffin, not afraid Griffin's gonna be like, all right, I guess let's go. But afraid Griffin is like, I have to protect my house and my family. Yeah. I mean, there's a reason we made it
Starting point is 00:29:02 so that we get afraid of things. It's not saying maybe God doesn't want you to play scary games. Maybe, how's your walk? Have you thought about that? Keep your grades up. Check your walk. Hey, use positive self-talk as you play the game. Oh, where? What you're feeling when you play the game. When you find yourself having a fearful thaw, counter it with positive self-talk, this will help you keep your emotions in check as you play the game. Check for when you're having a fearful thought. For example, you may think something like,
Starting point is 00:29:27 I wonder what I would do if I really saw a ghost. I would be so scared. Counter this was some positive and rational self-talk. For example, it's very unlikely I will ever see a ghost. Huh. And if I do, I trust myself to keep my cool. Two profoundly wild thoughts in the same sense. First of all, we do need to split it up.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Yes, split it up. First thing is, this idea that you're watching a game, a scary game, and the problem is you start thinking, I wonder what I would do if I saw this. I think that is exactly the experience that you should be having right then. Like, oh, I would be extremely scared if I saw a real good.
Starting point is 00:30:11 I do like that the counteraction is not, I will never see a ghost. But rather, I would say the fairly watered down affirmation of, it's pretty unlikely. It's, I don't think it'll be scary. I don't mean, I don't think I would be scared. I don't think I'd be scared if I saw ghost guys.
Starting point is 00:30:32 I would keep, I think it's hugely unlikely. I'll ever see it ghost. No, no, no, but if you did see one, would you be scared? I think I'd keep, I think I'd keep my cool. It depends on, okay, it depends on if I'm somewhere that I am already cycling myself up to be scared of seeing a ghost. But if I'm just like at the grocery store
Starting point is 00:30:50 and I turn around and see a ghost, I'm not fucking scared, I'm perplexed if anything like did a big can of soup fall on your head while you were shopping. The danger is yourself is what you're saying. The danger is you're getting yourself into that fight or flight state, then you see the ghost and you're like,
Starting point is 00:31:04 oh sure, that's the match. If I'm just you and see yourself into that fight or flight state. Then you see the ghost in your life. Sure. If I'm in a shoe and see a bear, I'm not scared. But if I'm in the woods and a bear comes up on me, I'll terrified. You say if you see a ghost in captivity, yes, I would be more scared of a ghost in captivity because that is going to break bad. Oh, okay. He's not going to stay in there. He's going to get out.
Starting point is 00:31:21 He's going to make these very unpleasant. He's going to switch places with your ghosts. Something right there always up to some kind of angle. He's gonna get out. He's gonna make these very unpleasant. He's gonna switch places with your ghosts Right, they're always up to some kind of angle, but I think by and large I'm not scared of a ghost. What is that slime? I don't care. You know what I mean? Touch me. I'd rather not have a beager. Thank you Thank you Acroid We both go about our business and you're not knockover on my papers and books.
Starting point is 00:31:48 You know what I mean? Or knockover on my candle that I've used to. Don't awkwardly smack up my stuff. Don't do that. Don't smack up my things. Yeah, don't clean either. I want these things where they go. Yeah, but I'm not scared of this.
Starting point is 00:32:01 You're annoyed is what it sounds like. Talk to a friend. Call of scientists. Keeping your feelings what it sounds like. Talk to a friend. Call a scientist. Keeping your feelings bottled up can make stress and fear worse. To calm your nerves after playing a game, call a text to a friend. You don't have to explain the situation if you're embarrassed. So you can simply chat about other things until you start to calm down. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:32:16 I thought it was saying like, hey Steve, it's me. Yeah, I was playing Silent Hill again. Can you talk me down, bud? Just talk me down, bud. Hey, Dougie. Yeah, I saw a Silent Hill again. Can you talk me down, bud? Just start running out of word. Hey, hey, Dougie. Yeah, I saw Dracula long. He hung me a miserable pile of cigarettes. It is so fucked up. He's so freaked out right now.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Can you come over? Can you come over? Can you run my feet? We'll watch riding projuss together. So you're at the riding pride and prejudice so I can run my feet? Take my mouth. This Dracula scared me so fucking bad tonight.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Can you skip through all the 10 spots? I just don't think I can handle it. Now, why do I keep playing Dracula's horrible game? I don't know. It's because I made it and I have to check it for bugs. God, I hate this guy. Why do I feel like I'm in there? If anybody in that organization is checking for bugs,
Starting point is 00:33:00 it's Renfield, right? Oh, I get it. All right. He loves eating those it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:33:10 I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:33:18 I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking so disappointed. I'm trying to take you in on my real heart. I thought that was so good.
Starting point is 00:33:28 You're just gonna have to suffer through that. That's my burden to bear. Next time if you think of a joke like that, you could just send it straight over to me. I'll deliver it for you. If it gets a big laugh, I'll credit you. That's what shocked me, Justin, is that you opened your mouth and a Travis joke came out.
Starting point is 00:33:43 And I was so, so, so, a problem. I had, I told you guys that movie idea that I had that was sent to me instead of Travis. Yeah. Remember the one about, doesn't matter, but the, no, no, it does tell the people how I'm not going to tell people it's, no, that's stupid. I'm not going to use the, I'm not going gonna use the podcast to talk about this idea for a great movie. This is too good, you're gonna make it.
Starting point is 00:34:08 It's too good and too funny, but it was meant for Travis and was delivered by what Liz Gilbert calls big magic, the creative energies. It was delivered to me in accent, which is like, as far as people can't tell us apart, our voices I get it. But we are different people though. We are different people.
Starting point is 00:34:26 We've, I don't think we've ever clarified that in like 680 episodes. Justin and I are not the same person. Different people. The beard's not helping. The same birthday, so the clues don't add up. Oh my God, fuck your right Griffin. Do I'm my zone?

Oh a bad bad in a bat. Sorry, no, no, no, did you say in a bet or in a bat? A bat bet. Oh, a bat bet. I got to beat the bat. I can't eat 100 of the bats. Whoa, hold on. No, hold on. There's a lot, I'm, there's a lot, I guess, I'm mistaken about vampire culture. I didn't think you eat the bats. I thought you like eat the bats.
Starting point is 00:41:45 Hi, for food or like, with dominance or I've turned up the color for my shirt to give the appearance to me. So wait, hold on, count on it. Can I tell what back? Quick sec. I thought it was a bet you made with a bat. Who did you make a bet with that you get a hundred bath? It was a large bet. So a bat said, I bet you can't eat a hundred of.
Starting point is 00:42:08 Smaller. Hey, do you see those hundred- That's over there. That's hated. Yeah, look at those beta bats over there. Can you, I'm gonna make you a beta bat bet. Do you bones in all, are you cook, are you allowed to cook the bats?
Starting point is 00:42:23 I eat them raw. That's okay. But raw. Okay. Whole. I say them, but I could only catch one. The others got wise to back up. And once I scoop the first up and jammed him into my fang the mall. And how was that dining experience? I ate half of the bat. I ate half before I became the, let me review eating the bat.
Starting point is 00:42:50 The blood, preno, the leash we love. We stand, we stand the blood. The bonds and brain of bat, this is less pleasing to the palate. Yeah, I bet there were some limited squarming when my fangs touched his nervous system. Gross. Gross. That sucks. Well, thanks for stopping by count, Dona. It's really good. You want to talk about Dona? Still better than the McRib. Okay, not usually your sort of area. You don't usually I have never eaten the migraine you've exposed my
Starting point is 00:43:29 Okay, all right. I've only been this awful for views on dig Okay, and for that fork Listen to me. It is Halloween season and that can only be one thing Oh, Justin wanted me to tell you there are Jimmy John starter jackets, but that's all you wanted to say on that. Thanks, man. I'm glad that Justin's using you. He left. He left not.
Starting point is 00:43:52 But I wish to talk about these. More like Jimmy John's non starter jackets. See that's the kind of adjustment earlier that really. Yeah, I was just trying to yeah, I was about. So we're going to talk about these Zonks, Zonks, Zonks. Zonks. What is it? Is it?
Starting point is 00:44:14 Is it Z, O, I, N, K, S? Oh, yes. Oh, that's Scooby Doo for fuck. Oh, this makes perfect sense now within the context of the story. Zonks, it's I'm pretty sure it's shaggy doo for fuck. I, this makes perfect sense now within the context of the story. Zoinks. I'm pretty sure it's shaggy do for fuck. I don't think I might be Valmo for fuck. Just instead of saying Zoinks, you can just say fuck. Chris. Chris. Krispy Kreme and Zoinks are doing coming together for the first
Starting point is 00:44:40 ever Scooby Doo Halloween donuts. Can I tell you? Roe. I tell you Count Donut. I actually saw these in story yesterday. Oh, how exciting. How many did you consume? Oh, zero of them. They didn't look advertising at all.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Do you know what I would trade away to eat a single donut? What? I cannot. I cannot even away to eat a single donut? What? I cannot, I cannot even express to you in terms that your mammalian brain could comprehend. I would do perils. Why the vampires aren't mammals? Sorry. You're not a mammal. Magic.
Starting point is 00:45:18 But do you lay eggs? But I'm magic. Like if you're a magic, you don't apply to this pedestrian So a dragon is just magic Well, and drag you is not real you have embarrassed yourself, okay? Hey, can we go back to why you just go eat a donut Why can't you just go eat a donut? Why not? It's a very golden ignorance now Maybe I'm saying I'm tired from doing that. Not one you want to fucking eat.
Starting point is 00:45:47 And listen, Zonks, Raro, Krispy Kreme, Raro! This is an expression I'm thinking of great jubblins. Raro! Krispy Kreme and Warner Brothers Discovery Global. Apologies, I got carried by the whimsy the whimsy inherent in this incredible story. They're artists just it. They're artists.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Roro. There are there are there are the artists. There are the They're artists, they're artists, they're removed things from Max to keep from paying residuals. Listen, RONO! One of our brothers discovered a global consumer products and the Krispy Kreme, a bringing mystery and monster's to life in this Halloween in the first ever unveiling of all the Scooby-Doo. All no Scooby-Doo. Halloween doesn't. Okay.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Well, there were only six in the box that I saw at the store. I was an at-crispy cream, mind you. Okay. Okay, so this is the laziest show I've ever seen. Yeah, so this was like the main reason for those at home. This gives the same vibe as like I Went and bought cupcakes for my kids birthday party. They wanted a theme birthday party Rather than pay for themed cupcakes I bought a bunch of like a two-cent worth plastic rings and just shove them into the cupcakes
Starting point is 00:47:20 I got a bass con robbins cookie cake that I did put Shrek stickers all over it because my son cannot get enough of pussing boots So it features all new donuts perfect for any event and let me tell you what they are They first is the scoby-dobido donut an original glaze donut dipped in Scooby-Dobby blue icing original glies, they're not dipped in Scooby-Doo blue icing. Decorate the was Scooby-Doo lime green. I said, they're just saying Scooby-Doo. You can't say Scooby-Doo. You can't just add Scooby-Doo. It's a flavor.
Starting point is 00:47:52 It's a flavor. Everyone's favorite flavor. Scooby-Doo lime. Scooby-Doo lime green icing and mystery machine chocolate piece. There's the, sorry, that's the, I got confused halfway through. Scooby Do is blue icing decorated with Scooby Doo lime green icing swirls orange cake batter
Starting point is 00:48:11 butter cream and top with the Scooby Doo chocolate piece. Well, that's good to check a piece being a Scooby Doo chocolate piece. A panel of chocolate that has Scooby Doo's face on it. Yes, that's correct. That's the rings that you so cruelly described as. If you removed the Scoobert to do chocolate piece. Why would you do this? It's so cheap. But if you did that and you held it up out of context and you said, what is this still not themed to?
Starting point is 00:48:41 I would bet a thousand dollars, no one would know. You're saying that if I can understand your concern, you're saying that without the picture of scubi do, it is harder to identify it as a scubi do, don't I say? I'm saying, if I may be so bold, and I am not a confectioner, that may be the reason for the inclusion of the picture of scubi do, that helps with the reason for the inclusion of the picture of scooped through. That helps with the effect. Yes. I'll say, what I'm saying is it feels like it feels like the same thing is saying, let me do try to guess what I'm doing an impression of.
Starting point is 00:49:14 It's me, Al Pacino. Yeah. This is a confusing one. School, Spoke Monster cookies in cream. Donan. A donut filled with Oreo cookies in cream filling dipped in Scooby-Doo purple icing. Okay, listen. Now Scooby-Doo can have a one color.
Starting point is 00:49:33 And there's at least that blue, I think, on his collar, if I'm looking at this piece, basically. There is no purple associated with the dog known as Scooby-Dare. Yes. This is a purple, Scooby-idoo purple, black tonic icing, and a scubidoo monster chocolate piece. It's a chocolate piece with a monster from scubidoo. And then there's jinkies.
Starting point is 00:49:54 Jinkies, how could this be? Right, that also means it's like shit. How can this be? How could this be jinkies? But are you confused about why a word could exist? Why could I say jinkies? But are you confused about why a word could exist? Why could they say jinkies? Why could this be? They couldn't do.
Starting point is 00:50:11 You're okay with zonks, but jinkies. It struggled, mightily with zonks, you remember. I was pain. Can I ask you a question? Do you think that with the cookies and cream, Donna, there was like an intern or somebody who was like, what, we could call it smoothies and cream. And they were like, no, that would confuse people. Then they wouldn't fucking know that it was cookies and cream. Get out of here. You're fired, Todd. If they said spooky's and cream, I think
Starting point is 00:50:37 we would say terrible jokes about them. I think we would be very hard on them for saying this bad thing. You don't think that you think cream is better than a monster? Scooby-Doo monster cookies and cream doughnut. Well, no, because I want to a filled doughnut, there could be anything in there. If you say it's got, eat this doughnut. What's inside of it? Scott Spookies. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:50:58 I would not enjoy. I wouldn't want to eat that. We, we, I, I, there's a call from Dave Skinner. We ask Scooby-Doo and his friends to solve the case of the day disappearing. You say what asked them, they're not real Dave. I'm sorry, they read Dave's words. Dave's Skinner is not in the rough that you the entire show. And you've been speaking the entire time. This is the only time they get to be
Starting point is 00:51:23 on the show speaks. We ask Scooby do and his friends to speaking the entire time. This is the only time they get to be on the show. Speaks. There's a gum on my face. We asked Scooby doing his friends to solve the case of the disappearing donuts, because it seems like whatever we put out a dozen crispy cream donuts, they vanish almost immediately. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. All right.
Starting point is 00:51:41 Scooby do is the perfect franchise this Halloween season for a fun collection of all new donuts and to solve this spooky mystery Uh, do you think I would like to see the edited uh, like the first draft of Dave's speech where it says Scooby-Doo was the franchise that we were able to get Scooby-Doo was the most available franchise that was in the price range to get. Scooby-Doo was the most available franchise. It was even our price range to know the Scooby-Doo. It was these are monster squal'd. We do Scooby-Doo or we get monster squal'd and have enough leftover fried, nice Christmas party. I put it for a mid-summer themed, Donuts. This is what we want. I will already ask her. This is a squash old lady, Donut. Yum yum. You know, I this is our human centipede, Donut.
Starting point is 00:52:33 It's the three donuts all baked together. It's challenging and delicious. Oh, there are one quick thing to know that you could get a free one. You get a freebie on Halloween if you wear a costume, the Krispy Kreme. Okay. This is nice. This is the public service announcement. Thank you so much. Oh, I should mention also when you eat one,
Starting point is 00:52:58 they've asked you to use the Edge tag, Scopetober. Okay. Why? Why would you do this? You've already said joins in jinkies Junk's yes, correct. Yeah, it makes him up sometimes. Thank you so much gentlemen for your time. Thanks count Donna Goodbye Okay, you didn't even leave. Hey, let's do another question. Yeah, I'd love that.
Starting point is 00:53:28 I'd love to do another question. I'll go one second. I have to, there's extra biological matter that I always have to wretch up after one of those. So please go ahead and just charge right ahead. I'm not close my office door because there's a loud dog outside and it may be Scooby-Doo. And Justin, you read the questions. Yeah, buddy, but I had closed the questions to, well, I don't know who closed my questions tab. Somebody here wanted to just read about Scooby-Doo donuts. I've long desired the ability to say, I'm going out for a smoke and be able
Starting point is 00:54:01 to take a break from whatever social activity I'm engaged with just to chill outside for a bit. When you say I need to step out for some fresh air, it leads people to asking if you're okay or if something's wrong. How do I communicate to my peers that I just want to stand outside for five minutes without people thinking there's something wrong? That's sort of smokeless, insurry. PS, I'm considering learning how to yo-yo, so I have something to do outside and possibly impress any pastor's buy
Starting point is 00:54:25 You are in your evening. That's an incredible mind. You've gotten there. Yeah, I would love to just step inside Hey guys, sorry. Hey, can we pause the movie real quick? Yo You gotta get my yo-od out of here. What you want me to go in the house with all your valuables? I'm gonna go yo in the porch. I think this is the reason 75 to 80% of smokers smoke is just get a little chill chill situation popping outside real quick. I had my little my little dalliance with smoking in college and that's the only thing I miss about it is just nice to go out and just come in, you know. There needs to be a new activity that is forbidden indoors. Baping.
Starting point is 00:55:09 No. That is forbidden indoors, not particularly harmful to the bod. And you maybe sizes out, maybe vaping. Size out. Maybe vaping. Size is out. It's you know, it's you know, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:23 two new two, size out. It isn't vaping, but you have to do it outdoors. Screaming. Hey, hey guys, sorry. I got a step outside to scream real quick for five minutes. Who could blame you? Honestly, like who would be grudging you that? You're yelling, you're right.
Starting point is 00:55:40 Yeah, I'm gonna step outside for five minutes. Yeah, and scream. Yeah, I have to step outside for five minutes. Yeah. And scream. Yeah. I have to use, excuse me everyone, I need to go use my sun dial. And then you step outside for a few minutes to use your sun. Not harmful to the body. Have to do it outside. Gotta do it outside.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Now, I got in a lot, I used to be bad about this at parties where I would do this, but I just wouldn't say anything to anybody. And I would just kind of go outside. Yeah. But then I would think, oh man, I'm already outside. Wouldn't it be fun to go home with no ice in? And so I would end up just leaving. Leaving stuff by stuff.
Starting point is 00:56:17 Yes, I would just gradually realize, oh, you know what, you know what, you're not refunds sitting in my car. Oh, you know what I'm starting my car. And backing slowly out of this fucking space. I can't listen to my audio book unless my car is on. Oh, this is safe to just, this is bad for the planet. To just sit here and idle, I should get a drive going.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Where to go? Oh, maybe home. Perfect. Me and you with this. Devil sticks. You can yo-yo indoors. In fact, I would argue that probably most high level yo-yo tournaments are indoor events. Yes. You can yoyo indoors. In fact, I would argue that probably most high level yoyo tournaments
Starting point is 00:56:46 are indoor events. Yes. What's wrong, Travis? You look like you have to say some shit. No, I just had an idea. I didn't want to interrupt. I just had an idea. That's not true. You want nothing more. I want desperately in an interrupt, but I don't want to be caught in a rough there. Okay, good thing. You want to do it. He doesn't want the repercussions. Yes, correct. Devil sticks, you could break a smoke detector to a nose and nose. That's true. I must step outside.
Starting point is 00:57:08 Do they make miniature devil sticks? Like they do like the little skateboard you can do with your fingers? Do they have little devil sticks that you can do? Hucka, devil sticks. Tec, tec, tec devil stick. Yeah. Tec devil sticks.
Starting point is 00:57:18 Tec devil sticks. Tec devil sticks. Tec devil sticks. Tec tec devil sticks. Tec devil sticks. We're not bird watching. Cool. That's catnacle sack.
Starting point is 00:57:26 Bird watching can't do inside unless that person owns a parrot. And even then, it's not, it does not. It doesn't count. No, you do a lot. Yeah. You can't walk into someone's bird room and be like, there, found one. That's the point. You could just, like, be just every, every the 55 minutes.
Starting point is 00:57:44 You just look out the window and like, oh, gotta go, let me go catch that one room, let me go write it down, be right back. Got a side for five minutes, pretend you're right in a journal while you just like breathe deeply. I don't think, cause my immediate reaction was to say, I'm gonna go meditate outside.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Oh, that's so weird. But I don't think that that's getting you out of that. What do you guys think about, excuse me, I have to thought. And then you walk outside. When you say I have to go get some fresh air, I assume that you are going outside to wrap one. Yeah. For a big one.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Hey guys, gotta stay outside real quick. I'm solar powered. That could be cool. What about I have to make a call? How long can you do that? I'm sorry, I need to make a call? Um, how long can you do that? I'm a day trader, sorry, every hour on the hour, I gotta step outside and make a call. Sorry guys.
Starting point is 00:58:32 It sounds good to me, I mean, yeah, that sounds good. Yeah. Pretend to catch a bug. Your house is full of fucking bugs, man. Fuck, I gotta get this little guy outside. Yes, again, it's a wasp, so I should hurry. Hey Justin. I'll find a good home for it.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Hey Justin, if you notice that wherever we go, Griffin catches like 10 to 11, but is he a Renfield? Dang. Yeah, I think it's possible. Is that why he didn't like me? Is that why he didn't laugh at my great-grandfell job? Yeah, because he had my big brother himself. And he's always stepping outside,
Starting point is 00:59:09 but then he catches another bug. Yeah, I think he's eating bugs. I'm not eating the bugs. I'm going outside and resheltering the bugs. Wow, he's hearing him out there for a fight, man. It's really good for somebody that's in all my books. He's really good for a fight, man. Yeah, we dropped him from the call,
Starting point is 00:59:24 and he can still feel it or say like That's all the legs hanging out of his mouth when he came in on his last time. There's not any button. No hold on Travis You can't just say I have bug legs coming up I could see it Bug legs in my mouth and teeth because people at home can't see me. Don't say that shit. The be the links sticking out Don't say that shit. I don't have beetle wings or a ball. Oh my God, his eyes are turning red Justin. His muscles are pulling. His hands are in the form of a table.
Starting point is 00:59:49 My eyes are normal. You would hear a table flipping over my eyes or normal cutting in. He just pointed to a sign that said, my master is coming and he'll feast on it. I don't have a sign and I don't have bug legs or beetle wings sticking on my teeth and mouth. Oh my God, Griffith is open the door
