- 1:31Speaker 1: our registry. I know, yeah, I didn't see it on there.
- 1:35Speaker 1: But I figured you guys would really get a kick
- 1:37Speaker 1: out of it. I hope you hope. Well I got
- 1:39Speaker 1: a kick out of it, for sure. What Yeah, I

- 1:45Speaker 1: What do you What do you mean by that? Is?
- 1:47Speaker 1: Is it broken? Uh no? But I found it online actually,
- 1:51Speaker 1: and I looked up the price. Fourteen dollars ninety nine
- 1:54Speaker 1: cents for that cooking rack. Huh uh yeah, no, I
- 1:57Speaker 1: don't know what we paid for you. I think I'm
- 2:00Speaker 1: pretty sure Clarissa picked that one out. Oh okay, Well,
- 2:04Speaker 1: either way, I mean, you know, it's kind of cheap
- 2:06Speaker 1: for a wedding gift, don't you think, Well, you know,
- 2:11Speaker 1: my wife, she likes to do the shopping. She kind
- 2:15Speaker 1: of takes care of wive stuff. It's not really me,
- 2:17Speaker 1: you know, So it's her. Yeah, yeah, but you're still involved.
- 2:21Speaker 1: So you know, like if my wife was gonna let's
- 2:23Speaker 1: say she was on the other foot and I was
- 2:25Speaker 1: going to your wedding and my wife was like, hey,
- 2:26Speaker 1: why don't we get this cooking rack? And I would
- 2:28Speaker 1: look at it and be like, wow, that's fourteen dollars
- 2:29Speaker 1: and ninety nine cents. Sure you want to do that
- 2:32Speaker 1: to your friend? That's why what I would say. Wait,
- 2:35Speaker 1: wait a second. So you're not calling because you're concerned
- 2:38Speaker 1: about how much your wedding gift was. M more than concerned.
- 2:43Speaker 1: I'm frankly pretty upset about it. Really, you're upset about
- 2:48Speaker 1: how much your wedding present cost. I mean, I think
- 2:51Speaker 1: anybody would you spent less than fifteen bucks technically on
- 2:54Speaker 1: a wedding gift for us? Again, I didn't buy anything,
- 2:58Speaker 1: my wife did. So anyway, how about this, I'm just
- 3:01Speaker 1: gonna put that cooking rack out on our porch and
- 3:03Speaker 1: if you want to swing by it later today and
- 3:05Speaker 1: pick it up and maybe replace it with a more
- 3:07Speaker 1: expensive gift. That'd be awesome. Okay, are you kidding me?
- 3:12Speaker 1: I don't know why I would be. I'm thinking maybe
- 3:15Speaker 1: something more in the forty to sixty dollars range probably appropriate. Yeah, No,
- 3:19Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. It's a wedding gifts. Yeah,
- 3:23Speaker 1: I can't believe you called me. Actually, well, you know,
- 3:26Speaker 1: I guess my concern is really for you. You guys
- 3:28Speaker 1: don't want to be known as the cheap couple, do you?
- 3:30Speaker 1: So now you're gonna tell other people about how unsatisfied
- 3:34Speaker 1: you were with your wedding gifts. Oh, I've already talked
- 3:37Speaker 1: to everybody I know about it because I was pretty Look,
- 3:40Speaker 1: I'm being calm right now, but I was outraged when
- 3:42Speaker 1: I saw how much that wedding gift costs. What you
- 3:45Speaker 1: might as well call it a bomb threat to my
- 3:46Speaker 1: wedding and ruined it that way. Are you trying to
- 3:48Speaker 1: say that us buying you a cooking rack is akin
- 3:51Speaker 1: to calling in a bomb threat to your wedding. I'm
- 3:54Speaker 1: just saying, yeah, it pretty much ruins it the same way.
- 3:56Speaker 1: You might as well have just done that or slept
- 3:58Speaker 1: with my wife before the wedding and then just revealed
- 4:00Speaker 1: it at the wedding. I mean that. Sorry, I'm starting
- 4:03Speaker 1: to get a little worked up again. Yeah, it sounds
- 4:06Speaker 1: like you are man, Okay, it is, you know, and
- 4:10Speaker 1: thank you for seeing my side on that. It is
- 4:12Speaker 1: so you want to drop by a more expensive gift
- 4:14Speaker 1: or what you don't No, I am not coming over
- 4:18Speaker 1: and I would so much rather be known as the
- 4:21Speaker 1: cheap couple than the couple, which is what you were
- 4:24Speaker 1: acting like. Wow, right, man? Oh you want to call
- 4:26Speaker 1: me an a hole? I'm going to sleep with your wife?
- 4:29Speaker 1: What the fuck? Man? Who the are you? Oh? Who?

- 4:33Speaker 1: phone call on you? That's who the guy I am. What? Yeah,

- 5:04Speaker 1: it either hurt or felt good. I can't tell. I
- 5:10Speaker 1: can't believe me. I can't believe you spent fifteen dollars
- 5:13Speaker 1: for a wedding gift. I thought you were the biggest
- 5:17Speaker 1: for doing well I am, but not for doing that.
- 5:19Speaker 1: I mean other things, but I mean if that was
