• 0:06
  Welcome back and also welcome to class because I got a word for
• 0:10
  you today. It's called vabbing.
• 0:13
  Vabbing and it's stand. Favorite word?
• 0:17
  I'm not even going to lie, shall I?
• 0:19
  Tell them what it stands for or do you think they can figure?
• 0:21
  It out No tell them it's. Called vabbing because it is
• 0:25
  vagina dabbing bro what? OK and because this is this
• 0:30
  class I want y'all to have some visuals.
• 0:31
  So this is a nice little visual of what vagina dabbing is.
• 0:38
  While I was looking believe you did that.
• 0:40
  What do you mean? It's a nice little grapefruit.
• 0:46
  When I was looking like for the definition and everything, it
• 0:48
  came across an article and that was the image that they had and
• 0:50
  I was like, I love it, I need it.
• 0:52
  And so, you know, just in case y'all can't see, Yeah.
• 0:57
  So the only reason we're talking about This is why are you
• 1:01
  looking so intently? Stop it.
• 1:05
  OK, she's with. She in there shout out to her
• 1:10
  nails being done. Though I mean, I couldn't do my
• 1:13
  nails. Well, thank you for that.
• 1:19
  Thank you for that. Because you need to get the, the
• 1:21
  the the secretions. Is that the right word for it?
• 1:24
  This has already gone off the rails.
• 1:28
  Yes, it is. Secretions you need to get the
• 1:31
  the the the vabbing basically is going in, going in there,
• 1:36
  getting the little secretions, whatever and then putting it in
• 1:39
  like your, you know, positive areas, your wrist, you know,
• 1:44
  your behind your neck on your collarbone and everything.
• 1:47
  And it's meant to try to like, seduce and get a partner.
• 1:52
  Yes, yeah, it's supposed pheromones.
• 1:54
  It's supposed to be. Apparently, but it's no proof
• 1:57
  that this has ever worked ever in the history of time.
• 2:00
  But there's a whole community on TikTok.
• 2:02
  What? Yes.
• 2:03
  There's a whole community on TikTok and.
• 2:05
  It started. We thought it was one.
• 2:07
  I thought it was one person. No.
• 2:08
  I did some deep dive research, there's a whole community on
• 2:10
  TikTok. It started in like around 2022.
• 2:13
  But this has been in books since like forever.
• 2:16
  For centuries. Wow what?
• 2:18
  For centuries, this has been. A.
• 2:21
  They haven't figured out it doesn't work that.
• 2:23
  No, but they keep trying. So this is a whole community,
• 2:26
  and there's one woman a part of this community, and we only
• 2:29
  discovered who she was because we were watching this TV show
• 2:31
  called My Strange Addiction. Oh my God T see for the drama,
• 2:35
  please go watch it. But if you've seen some bullshit
• 2:37
  on TV, it was probably on TLC. I'm telling you, I love this
• 2:40
  network. It's so much drama, I.
• 2:43
  Love it. But now that you have a visual,
• 2:46
  I want to show you Cassie. This is Cassie.
• 2:49
  Bless Cassie, just a little. Bit because Miss Cassie.
• 2:56
  Hey Cassie, she was one of our subjects for episode 3 of mine
• 3:00
  Straight addiction and her addiction was vabbing.
• 3:03
  She would VAB for 50 times a day.
• 3:05
  What did they say? What was that 3?
• 3:06
  50 a week. Like, so much so that she was
• 3:10
  tearing the inner lining of her vagina.
• 3:13
  Exactly with like her nails and stuff.
• 3:14
  So now she's got to do like what?
• 3:15
  Coconut oil first of all, she brought out this the biggest jar
• 3:19
  of coconut oil I've ever seen and I was like, what is what is
• 3:21
  that? Because we were already
• 3:22
  discussing her going up in there I.
• 3:24
  Was like, what is this white jar?
• 3:26
  And we're like, girl, pause. There's no secrets anymore.
• 3:32
  None. I miss secrets.
• 3:37
  I want to know everything. Honestly, Cassie, tell me
• 3:40
  everything. Literally.
• 3:41
  But bless her, this is legit her addiction.
• 3:44
  She cannot stop doing it and she keeps trying.
• 3:46
  I showed her multiple times trying to get a partner like
• 3:50
  she'd be at like a cafe or whatever.
• 3:52
  She'd be like, excuse me, goes to the restroom, vabs real
• 3:55
  quick, comes out and it's like. Do you?
• 3:57
  Do you? Do you smell anything you know
• 4:00
  you? Know did you want to smell my
• 4:01
  wrist now look I get second hand embarrassment really easily and
• 4:05
  I was like this girl like I cannot handle.
• 4:10
  Her What are you doing? Because she's so socially
• 4:12
  awkward. Extremely and.
• 4:14
  She's just like, hey, like, what do you do for a living?
• 4:17
  You know? And but when she was talking
• 4:18
  about vabbing honey, she. Was her confidence was through
• 4:21
  the roof? Man, she was about it.
• 4:24
  She was like, this is what it is.
• 4:25
  This is what it's supposed to do.
• 4:27
  Is it working? Because you're pretty fine like
• 4:29
  she was. I mean literally straight in, I
• 4:32
  mean. Straight in the date that she
• 4:34
  went on, he was like. He was really nice.
• 4:37
  He was super, super nice, Super nice.
• 4:39
  He kind of riddled her a little bit and was like asking her
• 4:42
  questions and this and that. And then afterwards when they
• 4:44
  went outside and asked, he was like, no, I'm not going.
• 4:46
  To see, I don't think we're seeing each other.
• 4:48
  And he said that's a little weird and I'm not quite sure how
• 4:50
  to. You know, deal with this.
• 4:52
  That is also not something you talk about on the first date.
• 4:55
  But she insisted and bless her, I wish her all the best.
• 4:59
  But like, if we're talking about scientifically speaking, I
• 5:04
  understand testing a hypothesis, but like, it is not.
• 5:07
  Working. She's 32.
• 5:09
  She's never had a relationship. She, you know, and it's just
• 5:13
  like, baby, it's not working. It's not working.
• 5:15
  She went to a sex therapist and the therapist was like, there's
• 5:19
  no scientific proof of this ever.
• 5:21
  And how about we work on your communications?
• 5:23
  You know words, she said. Nah, the smell's got to do all
• 5:29
  the work. Because she asked the dude, she
• 5:31
  was like, what are some questions that you asked your
• 5:33
  first dates? And she's like, what's your body
• 5:35
  count? On the first date, Cassie.
• 5:39
  Cassie just really bad, yeah. Reel it in, reel it in.
• 5:43
  But that was extra. We were cringing the whole time,
• 5:46
  blanket over the head entire time.
• 5:49
  I wish her all the. Best I do, I hope.
• 5:52
  I hope she gets laid. You know what?
• 5:55
  Yeah, me too. Yeah, but I love that we're on
• 6:01
  the topic of like, insane things because I want to take it all
• 6:05
  the way back to O 60. God if we can, please.
• 6:08
  OK, look, millennials and above, you may or may not remember the
• 6:14
  TV show Black and White from 2006.
• 6:17
  It was produced by Ice Cube and they got 2 separate families, a
• 6:24
  mother, a father and A and a teenager and put them in the
• 6:28
  house together to live and they swapped races.
• 6:31
  Yes, so so blackface, whiteface, wigs, clothes, the whole.
• 6:38
  Thing. But I want you all to really
• 6:39
  look at these people, OK? Like really look at them.
• 6:42
  So we have our families, we have the Wardell family.
• 6:45
  This is our white family. Normal.
• 6:47
  Yep. Simple.
• 6:49
  Sparks family, Yes. Black family.
• 6:51
  Nice. They both have one kid.
• 6:52
  It's fine, right? In case you didn't know, this is
• 6:58
  the white dad. Why does it say white white?
• 7:02
  Go ahead and zoom this in. This is Bruno.
• 7:05
  Before we even get started on Bruno, I just want you to know
• 7:08
  Bruno is a problem. He is a walking red flag.
• 7:11
  Where is my red flag? He is a walking red flag.
• 7:14
  He says the worst, the worst things.
• 7:18
  Racist and just makes you feel uncomfortable.
• 7:22
  He is taking all of his bravado and putting it behind this
• 7:27
  blackface and it just. Does not work.
• 7:29
  It doesn't work and I am convinced the only reason he
• 7:33
  agreed to do the show is because he wanted to say the N word. 50
• 7:36
  million times just in the pilot. We're not even joking.
• 7:38
  We just watched the pilot only and I lost count.
• 7:41
  Yeah, he. Kept saying he was like I hope
• 7:43
  somebody does call me an N word. Come at me.
• 7:47
  What, Right in front of the black family, you know, and they
• 7:49
  were like, that's not going to happen.
• 7:51
  No one just pulls you aside and calls you the N word like this.
• 7:54
  Isn't the 40s like? Oh, he was about it.
• 7:57
  He was so about it. And I know we were like, good,
• 7:59
  let's go through the family. But I have I have problems with
• 8:02
  Mr. Bruno. Oh, please, because he was like
• 8:05
  really like, I really, really want to, you know, somebody to
• 8:08
  call me the N word and somebody to to come at me.
• 8:10
  So I'm going to go shopping for a car and in my as black Bruno,
• 8:15
  that's what he called him. He's black Bruno and he's white
• 8:16
  Bruno Bruno and he's like, all right, so when I'm black Bruno,
• 8:18
  I'm going to go to the dealership and I'm going to see
• 8:21
  them, you know, come at me. And the the dealership guy was
• 8:24
  super like helpful, just like when most of us go places.
• 8:28
  You know they're decent. He used that as an excuse that
• 8:32
  black people are tripping. That racism only exists within
• 8:35
  the mind, or if you're looking for it.
• 8:37
  Exactly. And he's like, so look, if you
• 8:39
  treat people well, they'll treat you well.
• 8:42
  So the problem is black people are being too mean to other
• 8:45
  people and then in turn white people would be better to you if
• 8:48
  y'all calm down. Are we serious Mr. That's
• 8:53
  insane. That is like top tier gas
• 8:55
  lighting right there. And what really pissed me off
• 8:58
  about this is that this type of thinking leads to like, if we're
• 9:01
  talking about police brutality, for example, that they were
• 9:05
  like, there's no way that the cops would do that to you.
• 9:08
  You had to have done something to them.
• 9:10
  And it took George Floyd and it took what ICE is doing right now
• 9:13
  for people to be like you could just be existing for things to
• 9:16
  happen to you, and it doesn't matter how much you're following
• 9:19
  the rules, how nice you are. Things happen to happen.
• 9:23
  So Bruno could. Yeah, somewhere with that.
• 9:26
  Oh my God. By black folks who hear this
• 9:27
  stuff. Yes, if I do.
• 9:31
  Right. What?
• 9:31
  She said. And then maybe I could coast
• 9:37
  through life unaffected and. It's like, I'll be fine, as long
• 9:40
  as you don't do the things they say don't do, then they'll never
• 9:43
  come for you. That's like, no?
• 9:44
  Babe, you don't want to realize the second you walk into the
• 9:47
  room they were fucking. Literally.
• 9:52
  Yeah, I look. At him, but he was mad excited.
• 9:54
  I also want to talk about the rest of the family just so we
• 9:56
  can get through. Yes, this was Brian.
• 10:00
  He's a black guy turned white. Black dad like I, I liked him
• 10:07
  when he was a white guy. I'm not even going like because
• 10:10
  the things. That because the.
• 10:12
  Things that he was doing, he said you know what, I'm going to
• 10:15
  go buy some shoes and the the shop owner went over put the
• 10:20
  shoe on his foot. For him, he was like, he said,
• 10:23
  that's never happened to me and I've been to stores like this
• 10:26
  before. They hand me the box of shoes
• 10:28
  and they go about their business.
• 10:29
  Go do your thing. But they're like, Nah, does it
• 10:31
  feel right? Does it?
• 10:32
  Is it OK for you? How about we get another size
• 10:35
  like it was? So it was a wonderful
• 10:37
  experience. It was like, oh, OK, this is how
• 10:39
  things work when you have white face.
• 10:42
  And he went and got a job. He went and.
• 10:44
  Got a job? In a white neighborhood.
• 10:46
  So easy, no background check. Literally no background check.
• 10:49
  I'm literally no background. None.
• 10:53
  She joked about it. She said Nah, but you're cool.
• 10:55
  Yeah, she was like, we got to do a background check.
• 10:56
  I'm just kidding. I know you're good.
• 10:59
  Hot what? So he gets his job, He's a
• 11:03
  bartender, and one of the guys sitting at the bar starts
• 11:07
  talking to him, and he's like, yeah, this is a great
• 11:08
  neighborhood. You should move your family
• 11:10
  here, all white, but you don't have to worry about the blacks,
• 11:14
  the Mexicans, the immigrants. Don't worry about it, he said.
• 11:17
  This is 1. Of the last communities left
• 11:19
  with us alive, and we're trying to protect it.
• 11:21
  That everything around us has all of them.
• 11:23
  But don't worry, this is really. Good here.
• 11:26
  He was a spy. He was.
• 11:28
  A spy. And my favorite thing is that
• 11:31
  they didn't black out the faces or blur the faces of these
• 11:33
  folks. So like if y'all want an
• 11:35
  Internet detective, please go find them, yes?
• 11:38
  Absolutely, because he was perfectly comfortable and I What
• 11:41
  is this guy's name? I can't.
• 11:41
  Remember, Brian, Brian, he was so shocked.
• 11:44
  He was like, I wanted to go to these places to hear what white
• 11:47
  people say when we're not around.
• 11:49
  But he did not expect that. Expect.
• 11:51
  The openness of his conversation with him.
• 11:54
  It was 2620. Twenty, yes, 20 years later.
• 12:04
  Out loud. And I think that's very
• 12:07
  interesting. Absolutely.
• 12:09
  So that was really fascinating to deal with him and Brian and
• 12:13
  Bruno did not get a lot. Not at all.
• 12:16
  They had some beef. So near the end of the episode,
• 12:20
  they decided they were going to go shopping together and they're
• 12:23
  like, we'll see if we experienced some racial profile
• 12:27
  because. Brian was black.
• 12:28
  He was wearing his normal face exactly he.
• 12:30
  Was wearing normal face and then black Bruno was with him and and
• 12:36
  so they decided to go to Westfield.
• 12:38
  Yes, and go shopping. And he was just like walking
• 12:42
  down the street and he was like, see, she just looked at me and
• 12:44
  smiled. There was no issue.
• 12:45
  Bruno was like, it's fine, right?
• 12:47
  You're just, you're too tense. Yeah, you're just looking.
• 12:49
  Fine. You're leaning.
• 12:50
  You're looking for this information.
• 12:51
  You're bringing it on yourself. She just moved because, you
• 12:54
  know, we were taking up the whole sidewalk.
• 12:56
  Like really? OK.
• 12:57
  But did you? See how she moved?
• 12:58
  Exactly she. Moved her baby like Oh my God.
• 13:01
  Yeah, I saw the clerk the the Pearl clutching.
• 13:03
  I saw it. Yeah, he was.
• 13:04
  Just like it happens to me all the time.
• 13:06
  There's no difference. I wrote down what Bruno said, Uh
• 13:08
  oh. When Bruno and Brian were
• 13:10
  arguing because Brian was really trying to get him to understand
• 13:12
  that you're diminishing my experiences because you're one
• 13:16
  day as a black man, didn't produce the same thing.
• 13:20
  And Bruno told him. I'm trying to enlighten you on
• 13:23
  the fact that you have to approach life in a certain way.
• 13:27
  You're. Case closed.
• 13:29
  And he had mentioned his one black friend who said that he's
• 13:32
  never experienced racism. Oh my.
• 13:34
  God, he's never, ever. Yeah, Bruno, Yeah.
• 13:38
  I swear, I swear. But while we're still on the
• 13:41
  topic of Bruno, just one more thing about Bruno.
• 13:44
  OK, so when he was first getting into the blackface, he said
• 13:48
  things like how he was a basketball player previously.
• 13:51
  And I have a quote here of what he said it.
• 13:53
  It is a quote. OK, I'm telling you he said
• 13:56
  quote. Being a former basketball
• 13:57
  player, I always thought how how nice it would be to be able to
• 14:00
  jump, get off the ground, leap and slam dunk like these guys
• 14:03
  can. There's no doubt about it,
• 14:05
  blacks are superior. Yeah, so, yeah.
• 14:08
  So he was about that life. He.
• 14:11
  Was at the beginning but he got so like.
• 14:15
  Yeah, just and this is just the pilot y'all, you know, 6
• 14:17
  episodes. I don't even want to know how
• 14:19
  deep he went into his delusions. Exactly.
• 14:22
  So he's feeling this way, supposedly, but at the same time
• 14:26
  totally discounting Brian and his entire.
• 14:29
  Existence his. 41 years of existence.
• 14:32
  Exactly, but my two days that I've done this is exactly show
• 14:36
  me the rest of the family. I have to because I have words
• 14:39
  per weeks. Yeah, let's talk about this one
• 14:42
  right here. OK, this is the daughter.
• 14:44
  This is Rose Rose. So Rose was actually the most
• 14:49
  like, chill. She was about this, this
• 14:52
  experiment, and she was just like, look, we don't want to
• 14:55
  feed into stereotypes. Everybody is pretending to be
• 14:59
  the other race based on what they feel they are not from what
• 15:04
  they actually are. And so I don't know whose bright
• 15:06
  idea it was to send poor Rose to a slam slam tree class.
• 15:12
  I was nervous for her. So nervous, she sitting around
• 15:14
  all these black kids and they're like, okay, let's do a little
• 15:17
  icebreaker. Who's your favorite artist?
• 15:19
  We've got Mary J Blige, we've got Michael Jackson, you know,
• 15:22
  we've got Prince. Dave Chappelle.
• 15:23
  Dave Chappelle, she said. The cranberry Cranberries.
• 15:26
  And the way they looked at it, they were like, girl, the what
• 15:30
  now? Listen, I love the cranberries
• 15:32
  zombies my shit but. The cranberries I mean.
• 15:35
  I respect her being a white girl that also happened to be in
• 15:38
  blackface. Because.
• 15:39
  But like girl, you're supposed. To be playing the part.
• 15:44
  Trying to at least. Is the sun next?
• 15:48
  Yes, and so. I think so.
• 15:50
  The black no mom is. Next.
• 15:52
  Oh my God, can we please talk? About mom Oh.
• 15:56
  God. OK, so I want to start out the
• 15:58
  gate when they saw each other in their makeup for the first time
• 16:02
  and they met up. It was interesting because when
• 16:06
  the mom met up with Bruno, her husband, it's like they've
• 16:11
  never, ever been more attracted to each other ever in their
• 16:14
  life. I'm telling you, they were like.
• 16:16
  Hugged up fetishes, fetishization through both of
• 16:20
  them. He wanted the abilities and the
• 16:22
  life and the and the attention that being black brought.
• 16:25
  And she was like, I got a black man, Yeah, the way she was.
• 16:28
  Squeezing his arm and everything.
• 16:29
  She was like, wow, you look like a really nice man.
• 16:31
  They had the most passionate kids they've ever had in their
• 16:34
  life and they were feeling it. Yes, and she said that she grew
• 16:39
  up in a very liberal household, but she spends zero time with
• 16:41
  Black. People.
• 16:43
  And she also was the one to say the most suspect things.
• 16:46
  All of it. She was she was terrible.
• 16:48
  We didn't go into her this episode 2 is her clashing with
• 16:51
  the black mom, but we saw some clips, just some like coming and
• 16:56
  she called her a a bitch like she was like that.
• 16:59
  You know, it's supposed to be like a you're my bitch.
• 17:02
  It didn't go. Over.
• 17:03
  It did not go over. Yeah, because Renee was already
• 17:05
  like, I'm not feeling you. Yeah, she was all offensive
• 17:09
  about her from the beginning. And then?
• 17:12
  So we have the sun, right? The last one.
• 17:14
  Is the sun. Oh no, that's Mom.
• 17:15
  That's Mom. This is Renee.
• 17:17
  So we didn't get to see a whole lot of her in the pilot, but
• 17:20
  like you said, she was already side to side eye and everybody
• 17:22
  and everything. Yeah, but I mean, I believed her
• 17:25
  as a Karen. Look at her.
• 17:26
  Yeah, yeah, it's honestly one of the best makeup.
• 17:30
  Yeah. For her, for her fantastic.
• 17:32
  Last but not least, the son. Oh my goodness.
• 17:34
  OK, look at Nick. I love Nick so much because Rose
• 17:39
  the daughter brought him to this all white etiquette etiquette
• 17:43
  class and Nick was not about it. He walked, talked, acted exactly
• 17:50
  like him, but he just looked like a white boy.
• 17:52
  That white boy and he said he's. Like I'm not when they.
• 17:55
  Tell them how to, like, scoop soup out of there.
• 17:58
  He just scooped. He said, yeah, like, whatever.
• 18:00
  And they're like from the inside out.
• 18:01
  And he said, OK, like, relax, we're eating here.
• 18:06
  Like it's not. Nick was not about this life.
• 18:09
  He's like, I'm here for the paycheck.
• 18:10
  That's it. Pretty much like.
• 18:13
  The younger kids, the teenagers, like, I don't know, they just
• 18:15
  approach this a lot differently than parents.
• 18:18
  Yeah. So that was really interesting.
• 18:21
  Yeah, the whole thing was really, really interesting.
• 18:24
  And one more. This show is an Emmy.
• 18:26
  Winner, you're lying. You want to guess for what
• 18:32
  makeup? We'll see.
• 18:33
  I support that because they really transformed these folks.
• 18:38
  Like like his. I think his makeup and Renee's
• 18:42
  makeup were the best. They were really, really good.
• 18:45
  Yeah, I believe that. And the parent.
• 18:48
  Sarah and apparently. Carmen, the white mom, She said
• 18:52
  that Renee walked like a white woman.
• 18:54
  She did. And that was the thing about the
• 18:55
  black family. Well, the mom and dad, Nick
• 18:57
  didn't care, but they were telling the white family that
• 19:01
  they don't have to get any like tips from them or anything
• 19:05
  because they've spent their entire life basically studying
• 19:09
  white people. Exactly because we are always
• 19:11
  surrounded by white people. And so we already know you.
• 19:14
  We know how to code switch. We understand who you are.
• 19:17
  We know you're you're, you know when you mannerisms, when you do
• 19:20
  this, we can identify threats, we can identify friends.
• 19:23
  We got this down very well. And it was really the white
• 19:26
  family was really kind of offended when they were told
• 19:28
  that that you need help how to be a black person, but we don't
• 19:31
  need help. We needed.
• 19:32
  Absolutely no help, right so of. Course for them not to know it
• 19:36
  just shows. You.
• 19:41
  That you are a part of this. This thing, yeah, that we call.
• 19:50
  The. System.
• 19:51
  Absolutely. Exactly.
• 19:54
  Yeah. So you said you had one more
• 19:55
  thing because I got one too. Oh my God, I did.
• 19:58
  OK. Please let me see if I can find
• 20:01
  it. Because they were at a it was a
• 20:03
  panel, right? So they had each of the families
• 20:05
  go to a panel. So the, the black folks in their
• 20:08
  white face, they went to an all white panel talking about
• 20:11
  racism. And then the white folks in
• 20:13
  blackface went to an all black panel talking about racism.
• 20:15
  And I wanted to talk about Bruno in his panel.
• 20:19
  Because they they asked a question about experiencing
• 20:25
  being called the N word in a way that felt like you're putting
• 20:29
  someone down and it was just like mean and such like that.
• 20:32
  And I was hoping and praying that Bruno would shut up in this
• 20:35
  moment. I said you have no opinion.
• 20:37
  It's not going to happen. He said.
• 20:38
  You know what? I'm gonna say something.
• 20:40
  Yeah, he said. Quote.
• 20:42
  The only reason why people call you a derogatory name is so that
• 20:46
  they can blame you. If you don't empower the person
• 20:47
  that calls you the N word by getting upset, you win.
• 20:50
  And the idiot that just called you that doesn't have any power.
• 20:52
  After he had just established a story, a fake story, mind you,
• 20:56
  that he was a what? A bouncer or a DJ at a disco.
• 21:02
  Club. Yeah, he said that.
• 21:03
  And the white folk called him the N word.
• 21:05
  That was his story. He cuz I looked into him, he was
• 21:11
  an actor, so he really got into the role and I, Bruno did not.
• 21:15
  You don't get the job. Sorry Bruno, be for real.
• 21:21
  Yeah, you know what? Do you mind going to my screen?
• 21:24
  Because I had to see what Ice Cube had to say about this.
• 21:27
  Show Did he say something? Well, in 2020, I believe
• 21:31
  somebody had tweeted at him and was like, you know, you had, you
• 21:35
  made the greatest reality show in history.
• 21:37
  So if you want to pause this, you can read everything.
• 21:39
  But the part I wanted to point out is Ice Cube said the white
• 21:42
  couple got a divorce after doing the show because of what was
• 21:45
  discovered during filming. Can you tell us what that is?
• 21:49
  Because I have to. Know what was discovered.
• 21:51
  During filming was discovered during filming that caused them
• 21:54
  to get a divorce. I I need it.
• 21:55
  I need to know I need it. I mean, I could speculate, but
• 21:58
  I'd rather not. Thank you.
• 22:04
  Oh, that's interesting. What happened during filming?
• 22:09
  Right. Well, all right.
• 22:12
  That's interesting. That's the the things that are
• 22:14
  going on obviously back in O 6. I know technically TikTok
• 22:17
  refound that show in 2022 and Ice Cube got like cancelled over
• 22:21
  it for like a little bit of time, right?
• 22:23
  Yeah, there was like there was yeah.
• 22:25
  So in 2022, people were digging in the past like crazy.
• 22:28
  But I know people have already rediscovered that, but it's it
• 22:32
  doesn't make it any better. That's the thing, those of us
• 22:35
  who lived through it, it was a crazy time in the early 2000s
• 22:39
  because it was like reality TV and Internet and let's go crazy
• 22:42
  with this. It was crazy back then, it's
• 22:45
  crazy now. Literally all right.
• 22:49
  I have a Reddit, am I overreacting?
• 22:52
  Yes. Let's get into it.
• 22:55
  Am I overreacting for calling a divorce attorney after my
• 22:58
  husband lied about who he was with?
• 23:01
  Oh, who was he with your sister? So I female 37 just need non
• 23:07
  biased opinions. My husband, male, 37, asked me
• 23:10
  two weeks ago if he could go camping this past weekend with a
• 23:13
  friend and his brother. He asked via text so I assured
• 23:16
  him I I'm assured I'm not remembering incorrectly so she
• 23:20
  has receipts. I said I don't know because our
• 23:22
  daughter, 5, had a cheer competition and I prefer not to
• 23:25
  drag our son, 6, along for that long day.
• 23:28
  He offered to arrange for a sitter but I still wasn't happy
• 23:31
  because the competition was early and close to our house.
• 23:34
  Getting her up and ready is already a pain and the add in
• 23:38
  driving our son to a sitter's is just making the morning so much
• 23:41
  more stressful. We find out she's performing
• 23:43
  later so he decides to go. He says he's going with his
• 23:46
  brother and the friend can't go. So now it's just him and his
• 23:49
  brother. Wednesday night before he left,
• 23:52
  he specifically said he was nervous with the Verizon outages
• 23:55
  because he and his brother both have Verizon and they're hoping
• 23:58
  they don't lose access to GPS, he established.
• 24:02
  The story beforehand. Thursday morning he texts me
• 24:06
  that he made it to the campsite safely.
• 24:08
  I don't hear from him again. Friday at noon I reached out to
• 24:11
  make sure he's alive. He usually texts me life checks
• 24:13
  daily when camping and I get no response.
• 24:16
  By 6:00 PM I'm nervous and I text my sister-in-law to see if
• 24:19
  my brother-in-law was able to contact her.
• 24:21
  That's when she replies. Ma'am, what are you talking
• 24:23
  about? My husband's on the couch right
• 24:25
  next to me. We.
• 24:28
  Have to find him. I saw red.
• 24:32
  Yeah. In my mind my husband is still
• 24:34
  camping but used his brother as a manipulative tool because he
• 24:37
  assumes I won't want to ruin his good time.
• 24:40
  For mild background, we clearly have young kids who need a lot
• 24:43
  of attention. I work full time and manage
• 24:45
  basically everything for the kids.
• 24:47
  He works a swing shift so it's gone 14 hours a day on daisies
• 24:50
  working. I'm constantly juggling
• 24:52
  everything alone. So it does suck when he finally
• 24:54
  has time off and actively chooses to spend it detached and
• 24:57
  not being helpful in any way. Saturday he the only text that
• 25:01
  he has service again is coming home.
• 25:03
  I ignored his text. He called, but I was driving
• 25:05
  with our daughter and a call wasn't appropriate.
• 25:08
  When I could, I texted him calling him out on his lie.
• 25:12
  He doubled down and said he didn't lie.
• 25:13
  It was a change in plans because by the time he knew our
• 25:16
  daughter's start time was late enough that he could go, he was
• 25:20
  it was too late to invite his brother.
• 25:24
  False. Yeah, because I.
• 25:25
  Thought you already had a plan with your brother.
• 25:28
  OK now it's Monday. He's been living out of our
• 25:30
  basement or at work. So he has not tried to talk to
• 25:33
  me at all and instead is taking the stand that he's mad at me
• 25:37
  for being mad. Excuse me?
• 25:39
  In my opinion he lied to me. He mean he manipulated me
• 25:42
  instead of apologizing when he was caught double die down and
• 25:45
  it's using my anger against me. The fact is I no longer can
• 25:48
  trust him and contact an attorney.
• 25:51
  So am I overreacting? So I before you respond, yes,
• 25:56
  sis, your husband spent the weekend camping in somebody's
• 26:00
  body. OK, What did you say?
• 26:04
  I said what I said. Who were you with?
• 26:06
  What did you say? OK, the whole time.
• 26:08
  Don't blame you. The whole time I'm playing the
• 26:10
  movie Brokeback Mountain. Yes.
• 26:12
  I know it's a guy. Well, that's the thing.
• 26:14
  It could be Brokeback Mountain, or it could be, you know,
• 26:17
  there's one where like Kate Winslet is up there with Idris
• 26:19
  Elba. Interest.
• 26:20
  Is that right? There's a movie, so you know it
• 26:23
  could be either. One.
• 26:23
  It could be either one, but he. He just went out there and
• 26:26
  didn't want to go with nobody else.
• 26:28
  Hear it, but there was a friend and he didn't account for the
• 26:30
  friend I know. That was the point.
• 26:40
  Would you he don't? Want to go get hurt?
• 26:43
  Y'all can't see that. No no.
• 26:43
  So anyway he's cheating. It's like, it's like, that's
• 26:50
  nice. Anyway, he's cheating this man.
• 26:54
  Wanted. To so that's the thing.
• 26:57
  The story does not say that she asked who he was with.
• 27:00
  And so yes, he could have been alone and he just didn't want to
• 27:03
  be with his family. That's one option.
• 27:06
  Another option is he was with somebody because his phone.
• 27:09
  Why did you just turn your phone?
• 27:10
  Off. That's what I'm saying.
• 27:11
  So and no, but also even after the whole thing, why would you
• 27:21
  allow me to take my mind to your cheating if you just wanted to
• 27:24
  be alone? I feel like if you weigh the
• 27:26
  options, which one's worse? He would have just said maybe I
• 27:30
  just wanted to be away from my family for a little bit and that
• 27:33
  would have better than letting her speculate about the fact of
• 27:35
  her cheating. I don't think she's overreacting
• 27:38
  at all because she already said, she already said that he uses
• 27:42
  the, the small amount of time that he's at home doing other
• 27:46
  things, not spending time with them.
• 27:48
  And so it's very, very possible that he was up there by himself.
• 27:51
  But that's also a Dick move because you had your kid, had a
• 27:55
  competition, and you knew you were leaving your wife alone to
• 27:58
  handle that by herself, right? So she was not overreacting
• 28:03
  about contacting a divorce attorney because this was the
• 28:05
  last straw, not the first. One No, yeah, you know, leaves
• 28:08
  it's multiple. Things exactly all right.
• 28:11
  I want to know what y'all think though.
• 28:15
  I don't like this. I don't like this.
• 28:17
  The producer is is pulling out his man card and I'm not.
• 28:20
  Yeah, the producer is being real messy.
• 28:26
  Well I got 1, yes. And mine's all about the
• 28:28
  pettiness. You ready?
• 28:31
  OK Reddit confession. I've been waking up at 3:00 AM
• 28:34
  to move my neighbor's Trask in slightly every week and he hired
• 28:37
  a priest last month. Oh, like an exorcism, huh?
• 28:40
  He. Said this started two years ago.
• 28:44
  My neighbor Gary reported me to the HOA because my trash cans
• 28:47
  were visible from the street on a non trash can day.
• 28:51
  I got a $50 fine. I said OK, Gary bet OK.
• 28:56
  Every Wednesday night I set an alarm for 3:00 AM and I go
• 28:59
  outside at dark clothes. I move his trash cans about 6
• 29:02
  inches to the left. That's it, just six inches.
• 29:05
  Then I go back to bed. The first few months he didn't
• 29:08
  notice. Then one morning I saw him
• 29:09
  standing in his driveway just staring at them.
• 29:12
  He moved them back next Wednesday 6 inches.
• 29:15
  He started putting a rock in front of them or to mark the
• 29:18
  spot. I moved the rock too.
• 29:22
  He installed a Ring camera. I approached from the blind spot
• 29:25
  behind his bushes. I know his yard better than he
• 29:27
  does. Oh my God.
• 29:29
  Last summer, his wife came over to ask my wife if we've noticed
• 29:33
  anything strange in the neighborhood.
• 29:35
  My wife said no, I was standing right there.
• 29:37
  I ate a granola ball and nodded. I don't know what's going on.
• 29:42
  In October, he had the house blessed.
• 29:45
  I watched a priest walk through his front door.
• 29:47
  I saw them standing in the driveway, praying over the trash
• 29:49
  cans. I almost felt bad.
• 29:51
  Almost most, he started. Bringing them inside his garage
• 29:57
  now. So I've pivoted to moving his
• 29:59
  welcome mat 2 inches every week instead.
• 30:01
  I will never stop in all caps. I don't even remember what being
• 30:05
  normal feels like. The HOA created me and
• 30:08
  apparently people were asking how he got past the the ring
• 30:12
  camera so he made an edit and he said since people keep asking
• 30:14
  about the ring camera, the welcome mat is by a side door.
• 30:17
  The camera points at the driveway.
• 30:19
  But I'm not taking chances. So I brought the same ring
• 30:21
  camera model and spent a month testing angles in my own house.
• 30:25
  There's a 2 foot blind spot if you approach from the left
• 30:28
  heads. A 10 second delay before
• 30:29
  recording starts. I can be in and out in 8
• 30:31
  seconds. That deserves a.
• 30:37
  Fest, I'm proud of Petty. Oh my God, I love you know what
• 30:41
  we all need A hobby. You.
• 30:43
  Know right at someone else's expense.
• 30:45
  Yes, because what 2024 taught me is that I was not being petty
• 30:50
  enough. OK, Because people.
• 30:52
  Were doing it better. What you see what's going on
• 30:54
  with music? We got Kendrick, we got Drake.
• 30:56
  And I was like, look, I could step up my petty game.
• 30:59
  You can absolutely step it up. Amazing, you know.
• 31:01
  Moving it to the welcome mat, taking a month to and getting.
• 31:05
  Your own Ring camera. I love it.
• 31:07
  Amazing. I love it.
• 31:09
  I love him. Would you do this level of
• 31:11
  petty? Are you this?
• 31:12
  Are you this petty? I feel like everyone if pushed
• 31:15
  at the right spot. Is this petty?
• 31:18
  Absolutely. You know, Yeah, because.
• 31:20
  F that HOA really $50.50? Dollars, I'm over the $50 at
• 31:23
  this point. I'm costing you exactly because.
• 31:26
  The ring is more expensive. Than the you got to get a ring
• 31:28
  camera. I'm costing you.
• 31:31
  Exactly. Amazing.
• 31:34
  Well, Reddit, am I the asshole? Bring it.
• 31:40
  My mother-in-law is creating AI photos of me.
• 31:45
  What? Your grandma, She's good with
• 31:47
  technology. So my husband and I have been
• 31:50
  together for five years. My mother-in-law has always been
• 31:53
  very into posting on Facebook. At least one post today.
• 31:58
  Oh no. She even used to post for my
• 32:00
  husband when he was a kid and a teenager.
• 32:03
  No. Yes, it's a full time job.
• 32:05
  It really is. Very often when we send her
• 32:08
  photos of ourselves, what we're doing, or anything noteworthy,
• 32:11
  they get posted on Facebook without our knowledge.
• 32:13
  Sometimes I'd go on Facebook and see photos I had no idea she had
• 32:16
  taken of us. She has around 2000 followers
• 32:19
  but posts everything completely publicly anyways.
• 32:23
  From Yeah. We had to have, you know, it's.
• 32:26
  Like don't put my kids out there.
• 32:27
  You cannot do that, okay. It's always made me
• 32:30
  uncomfortable but I never thought it was a problem before
• 32:32
  now. My husband and I have been busy
• 32:34
  with new jobs and haven't been able to make the trip to see his
• 32:37
  parents since the holidays. He's gone without me, but I have
• 32:40
  an odd work schedule. Yesterday I got a call from my
• 32:42
  parents asking if I had made the trip to see his family.
• 32:45
  Looking at Facebook. My mother-in-law had created an
• 32:48
  AI generated photo of us watching a football game with
• 32:51
  them, all in matching jerseys. And you're lying.
• 32:54
  That's such a advanced photo to generate those.
• 32:57
  She's got experience, I. Appreciate you wasting our
• 33:00
  water, the world's water supply to make this.
• 33:08
  This bothered my husband too and he offered to text his mom and
• 33:11
  ask her not to create any more AI photos of us.
• 33:14
  I've always had a great relationship with her and she's
• 33:16
  always been very kind and understanding, so neither of us
• 33:19
  expected her to take it poorly. She did.
• 33:22
  She told us we were ungrateful for her, that we have always
• 33:25
  hurt her feelings when we asked for no pictures and that we, and
• 33:29
  especially me are too sensitive and should just let her post
• 33:32
  what she wants. Excuse me?
• 33:34
  My husband is also uncomfortable with the way she's acting and
• 33:37
  draws the line at AI photos but says we can deal with her the
• 33:40
  normal with her normal posting habits.
• 33:43
  I thought I had to say before and let's get posted but now I'm
• 33:45
  uncomfortable with the whole situation.
• 33:47
  Am I the asshole if I start telling my mother-in-law no
• 33:50
  posting pictures of me at all? At all?
• 33:52
  No. Yeah.
• 33:53
  See, I gave you some leverage. Just like a child, you messed it
• 33:58
  up so now you don't get it. At all.
• 33:59
  Take the toy away. Take everything away, take me
• 34:02
  off. Go through your years and years
• 34:04
  with the pictures and take me off like completely.
• 34:06
  And that's the problem I've always had with certain people
• 34:09
  and how they post. You know, either you're posting
• 34:10
  your children or somebody else's children and they are in bathing
• 34:14
  suits or they are in shorts or, but it really doesn't matter
• 34:17
  because the creeps out there will do whatever.
• 34:19
  But if I ask you not to post pictures of my children, then
• 34:23
  don't post pictures of my children.
• 34:24
  Exactly. And it's really simple.
• 34:26
  It's respect too, but you going around and doing it anyway is
• 34:30
  ridiculous. And no, I don't know all 2000 of
• 34:33
  your followers. I don't know.
• 34:34
  Well, they're public anyway, so anybody can go and.
• 34:36
  Steal the photo. I'm uncomfortable with the fact
• 34:39
  yes and it's disrespectful and she's like, I didn't get
• 34:42
  anything from you. So I'm a.
• 34:43
  Generate something and also the fact that she's been harboring
• 34:47
  bad feelings because she does ask them not to post and she's
• 34:50
  like you hurt my feelings. Girl, why?
• 34:52
  Why is the fact that? I don't want you to post me on
• 34:55
  your Facebook such a big deal. To you, like I'm uncomfortable
• 34:59
  with this, you should. Host yourself, go on a walk and
• 35:03
  take a picture like you know. She's addicted to this.
• 35:06
  She needs to get off Facebook and go for an actual.
• 35:08
  Walk. You know Facebook man, Get off
• 35:12
  seriously. But that's a problem.
• 35:13
  Let us know if y'all think that's like OK or not.
• 35:16
  I mean I personally don't think that's OK.
• 35:18
  If I say no, it should be like a no.
• 35:20
  Full stop. And then also, I mean, I feel
• 35:22
  like there should be some kind of discernment on grandma's part
• 35:26
  to not post her family that much anyway, right?
• 35:29
  Like I remember very clearly being a child of the 90s and
• 35:33
  when the Internet really did a boom, the the people who
• 35:36
  contacted us and said don't put your name, don't put your real
• 35:40
  picture, don't put anything online.
• 35:42
  They're the same big people who are posting literally everything
• 35:45
  online right now. Seriously.
• 35:47
  Yes, they. Didn't want us to post anything.
• 35:49
  They were so afraid of the Internet, and now they just put
• 35:51
  everything you're. Just making it so easy now.
• 35:56
  Don't be a hypocrite. That's horrible.
• 36:00
  OK, I know you guys are going to hate me and I'm so sorry in
• 36:03
  advance. But this?
• 36:06
  One was trending on Reddit and I just had to get in so.
• 36:08
  Give it to me. Reddit confession I've been
• 36:11
  tasting my own urine every morning for four years.
• 36:15
  Jesus, you could have warned me. I'm like, I'm so.
• 36:17
  Sorry you were drinking again. I am really sorry.
• 36:22
  But this guy is like a very like sciency guy and he gave us like
• 36:25
  the numbers and the facts. So I just like, I cut it down a
• 36:27
  little bit. Oh my God.
• 36:28
  But I have a spreadsheet with 1460 entries rating color,
• 36:33
  clarity, sweetness, solidity and mouthfeel.
• 36:36
  I can now. Predict illness.
• 36:38
  Mouthfeel. I can now predict illness onset
• 36:43
  72 hours before symptoms appear. What I drink approximately 5
• 36:49
  milliliters, enough for proper palate evaluation.
• 36:52
  This started after I discovered the historical practice of
• 36:55
  uroscopy, which is the primary diagnostic method used by
• 36:58
  physicians from ancient Greece through the 19th century.
• 37:02
  The 19th century. Bro like give it up.
• 37:04
  Like we got good doctors now. So I found this fascinating.
• 37:09
  If trained physicians relied on this method for millennia,
• 37:12
  perhaps there was a diagnostic value worth exploring.
• 37:15
  So I started collecting data. I developed what I called the
• 37:18
  Golden Index, a standardized evaluation framework with six
• 37:22
  primary metrics, one color, 2 clarity, 3 sweetness, 4
• 37:28
  salinity, 5 bitterness, and six mouthfeel.
• 37:32
  I hate all of this. My current data set contains
• 37:37
  1460 data entries spanning January 2022 to present.
• 37:42
  Compliance rate is around 99.7. The point three I've missed five
• 37:47
  days total, 2 from food poisoning, one COVID infection
• 37:50
  and one camping trip without proper collection equipment and
• 37:54
  one oversight. The results have been
• 37:56
  significant. My wife.
• 38:01
  You have a. Wife.
• 38:02
  You have a wife. What?
• 38:04
  My wife believes I simply take a long time in the bathroom each
• 38:08
  morning. She doesn't.
• 38:08
  Even know. She's not aware of the research
• 38:11
  he put research in. Like the italics.
• 38:14
  You know, I've considered presenting my findings to a
• 38:16
  physician, but I suspect they would not take it seriously.
• 38:19
  They might recommend psychiatric evaluation, he said.
• 38:23
  Well, my data's clean, so whatever.
• 38:26
  He goes in detail about those findings and the numbers and
• 38:28
  other variables and stuff. But he also said he's going to
• 38:31
  write a method mythology department document, and he's
• 38:34
  going to offer to share it with y'all if you're interested.
• 38:36
  Oh my God, look, I appreciate the science.
• 38:39
  I love a nerd. But like what?
• 38:43
  So and sweetness mouthfeel. Please tell me.
• 38:49
  That you you brush your teeth. Before you kiss your wife, you
• 38:53
  know. How about that?
• 38:55
  What wait did he say how much he drinks?
• 38:59
  5 milliliters. How much is that?
• 39:06
  It's been a long time since I've been at school, but I think it's
• 39:08
  like like a. Little shot.
• 39:12
  The the words are really good, the mouthfeel I can't.
• 39:15
  The mouthfeel salinity so you got to see if it's like salty or
• 39:21
  or not. And I'm so sorry but literally
• 39:26
  it was trending and people in the comments were like I respect
• 39:29
  the dedication. What?
• 39:31
  This is insanity. I'm so upset right now.
• 39:33
  I'm. Offended.
• 39:35
  I'm so upset because you know. You hear about people who get an
• 39:38
  accident and they're like, trapped in their car and they
• 39:41
  and they have to. Yeah.
• 39:42
  And who has a gun to your head forcing you to take these?
• 39:45
  Science, Science. Science.
• 39:48
  God. And he was using big words too.
• 39:49
  And I was like bro, like I respect it but like.
• 39:52
  Just write your paper and move on.
• 39:53
  You don't have to keep going. Oh my God.
• 39:54
  Like you said, your research is solid, you know. 1500 entries,
• 39:58
  you're good. At this point, you like it?
• 40:00
  Yeah, I. Think he's bad when he said 72
• 40:03
  hours? If you get you every time.
• 40:06
  He's sick or not. Yeah, yeah, drink your piss.
• 40:08
  You don't get sick? Yeah, You don't get sick.
• 40:09
  No. Have we evaluated whether or not
• 40:12
  the drinking has anything to do with the illness?
• 40:14
  Cuz I don't even think he's like evaluating that data.
• 40:17
  He's just evaluating like the one set of variables he has.
• 40:21
  It's very like. It's very stuck and it's like in
• 40:23
  the beginning that things were they different after the urine
• 40:26
  went through your system? Exactly.
• 40:28
  I just I have questions but I don't I don't want to know I.
• 40:32
  Don't want to know but the document is releasing later this
• 40:35
  year so. OK, we'll keep an eye out for it
• 40:38
  because we need the update. But yeah, I put, I put
• 40:40
  following, I'm following this trend like.
• 40:43
  You ruined my night. I was.
• 40:45
  Drinking my tea. Your tea.
• 40:48
  I'm so sorry. I apologize in advance, but we
• 40:52
  love y'all. Love you.
• 40:53
  Bye.
