HHBSO 137: It's Okay to Be Lazy · He's Hot but Something's Off...

• 0:02
  Hello and welcome to He's hot, but something's off.
• 0:07
  And if you're watching the YouTube version of the podcast
• 0:11
  followed by my YouTube channel, just Joey T, you might think,
• 0:15
  hmm, something is off on this episode.
• 0:19
  So this is the first episode I've ever recorded that is an
• 0:23
  audio only episode, and I'm really so excited about that.
• 0:29
  So there's some work being done on my house and I had to
• 0:34
  basically declutter the whole place.
• 0:37
  I have to like put a whole bunch of stuff away, including all the
• 0:41
  equipment for my podcast setup, which is usually on my dining
• 0:45
  room table. And I usually have a ring light,
• 0:50
  a soft box light, obviously the tripod and then the camera and
• 0:54
  all like the plugs and cables and wiring for all that.
• 0:57
  And to put all that away. And you know what, to be honest,
• 1:01
  I could have pulled all that stuff out from the closet, but
• 1:06
  because of the stuff, the work going on in my place, I would
• 1:11
  have had to like put it right back after recording.
• 1:14
  And I was just too lazy to do it.
• 1:17
  I had never ever promised that this podcast would always be a
• 1:22
  video podcast. And honestly, you guys were
• 1:25
  lucky that the last how many we're up to 130 something
• 1:29
  episodes. You're lucky that for as long as
• 1:33
  this podcast has been produced week after week that you all got
• 1:37
  a video version. Because when I first wanted to
• 1:41
  do the podcast at the very beginning, but I had the idea
• 1:45
  before I even got everything together and I had committed, I
• 1:48
  was like, it's it would be nice to do something that's audio
• 1:52
  only. But so once you introduce video,
• 1:54
  it's not just having a camera in front of you and hitting record
• 2:00
  when you're on camera, you have to look good.
• 2:04
  OK, You think people that do thing that that film things for
• 2:07
  like Tik Toks or, you know, YouTube or whatever, you think
• 2:10
  they just roll out of bed and just hit a record button on a
• 2:13
  camera? No, it does not look like that.
• 2:15
  You need to like pretty yourself up a little bit.
• 2:19
  I do pretty minimal climbing up for the video podcast.
• 2:25
  I mean, most of the time I don't even do my hair.
• 2:29
  I am pretty lazy, but I think you know what laziness is OK
• 2:34
  Laziness in moderation is fine. You know, these days in the
• 2:40
  current culture, everyone is so much about you have to be
• 2:43
  hustling all the time. Actually, I don't think it's a
• 2:45
  global phenomenon. I think it is more like in
• 2:47
  certain Western cultures, like in the US, for some it's like if
• 2:50
  you're not hustling all the time, then like you're not
• 2:52
  working hard enough. I have never agreed with that.
• 2:56
  But anyways, I usually don't glad myself up for the video
• 2:59
  podcast. I usually don't do my hair,
• 3:02
  however. I mean, that's partially because
• 3:05
  I take care of my skin. I do the skin care and I eat
• 3:09
  like a pretty clean diet and that helps, you know, keep my
• 3:13
  acne and blemishes under control.
• 3:15
  So because I take care of myself usually I don't, it's very rare
• 3:21
  for me to wear makeup, tinted moisturizer, things like that.
• 3:24
  It's only for like, I don't know, a special occasion.
• 3:27
  Like if I'm going to go on a cruise, then I'll put a little
• 3:31
  bit of tinted moisturizer on. It's not full makeup.
• 3:34
  It's not like proper foundation. I don't do like highlighter and
• 3:39
  bronzer and you know all that like the contour.
• 3:42
  I don't do like the full on makeup.
• 3:44
  I I never have. But sometimes it's nice to look
• 3:46
  a little nice for like a special occasion for like a date or like
• 3:49
  a vacation or something. Do like a a little sunless
• 3:52
  Tanner, a little bit of, you know, tip the Morris ride just a
• 3:56
  little bit. But usually for a video podcast,
• 3:58
  I actually don't do anything. I start lighting doing most of
• 4:00
  the work. So I've got like a couple of
• 4:02
  lights and the lighting makes a big difference.
• 4:04
  Honestly, in like photos and videos, like lighting is 90% of
• 4:08
  the battle. OK, You get the lighting right,
• 4:11
  You will look hot. You you look hot for sure.
• 4:13
  Have you ever a lot of you obviously, you know, take
• 4:17
  everyone does. Everyone has been taking photos
• 4:21
  for selfies, have been taking selfies for many years now.
• 4:25
  Some of us over a decade because, you know, there's a
• 4:27
  selfie camera on every phone now.
• 4:29
  And I'm sure you all have noticed some of your selfies
• 4:35
  look so crap. Like you look so crap in some of
• 4:38
  your selfies. This includes me.
• 4:39
  I'm not shading you guys. Like some of the selfies I've
• 4:42
  taken. I've I've been taking selfies
• 4:44
  for like, what, 15 or 20 years now, you know, Yeah, I because
• 4:48
  I've had a phone with a camera on it since I think the first
• 4:53
  phone that I've gotten that had a camera on it was when I was
• 4:58
  in. Why don't it was like middle
• 5:00
  school when I was like in middle school, it was the first time I
• 5:04
  had a phone that had a camera on it.
• 5:07
  It was a flip phone. Like this is super, super early.
• 5:10
  This is way, way before smartphones.
• 5:12
  This is like when you had flip phones like the candy bar
• 5:15
  phones. There were dumb phones.
• 5:17
  This is like when no one had a data connection on their phone.
• 5:20
  This is before 3G. OK, but it was one of the first
• 5:25
  phones that had a camera and it was a flip phone.
• 5:29
  And but it was not a selfie camera.
• 5:31
  The camera was on the outside of the flip, on the outside of the
• 5:34
  tone. So when you opened it up, like,
• 5:36
  you know, you could point your phone at something facing away
• 5:39
  from you. But like when the phone's opened
• 5:40
  up, you don't have a selfie camera.
• 5:42
  This is before selfie cameras. But I've been taking photos.
• 5:45
  I've been taking selfies for a long time.
• 5:46
  But have you ever noticed there are sometimes you take a selfie,
• 5:50
  you look in the mirror at the gym or whatever and you're like,
• 5:54
  oh, I look cute today. You catch a reflection on a
• 5:58
  storefront on a glass somewhere and you look cute and you go to
• 6:01
  take a selfie and look shit. That happens to me all the time.
• 6:05
  But there are times where like you take a photo and the
• 6:08
  lighting is like chef's kiss. The lighting is so good.
• 6:12
  Anyways, all of this is to say, yeah, I, I'm, I'm, I'm not, I
• 6:17
  don't, I didn't bother to put the camera out today and all the
• 6:20
  lighting and everything, because even just me looking at the
• 6:24
  thumbnails that I do for the podcast, you know, I'll do a
• 6:29
  screen cap every episode to put us the YouTube thumbnail and all
• 6:35
  the thumbnails are in this one file.
• 6:38
  OK, It's in like a Google. It's like a Google Slides file
• 6:44
  for Hhbso. So every single thumbnail I've
• 6:48
  created for every episode of this podcast is in this one
• 6:51
  Google Slides Google presentation file.
• 6:54
  So when I open this file every week to create the thumbnail,
• 6:58
  the very first slide or thumbnail pops up when you open
• 7:03
  it. And it's from the very it's not
• 7:05
  even from the first episode. It's from, well, it is from the
• 7:07
  first episode, but when I, you know, at the very beginning, I
• 7:11
  was trying like a few different layouts and ways to lay out the
• 7:15
  thumbnail. So like the very first one, the
• 7:17
  very first slide that pops in the file was not the actual
• 7:20
  thumbnail that I used, but I was just trying a few prototypes at
• 7:22
  the start of that file in the first few slides.
• 7:25
  But it was a screen cap from the very first episode.
• 7:28
  And I look at that, just comparing the lighting from the
• 7:32
  Super early episodes compared to the lighting I'm using now is
• 7:36
  such a big difference. And it's not like I looked
• 7:40
  better or worse back then physically.
• 7:42
  It was just the lighting was shit.
• 7:44
  That was all. But like the lighting was so
• 7:46
  bad. Even the lighting that I got
• 7:49
  that I was using as recently as late last year.
• 7:54
  You know, you notice that the the lighted thumbnails from like
• 7:59
  the last few years. No, sorry, the last few months
• 8:03
  from just the last few months, just since the beginning of the
• 8:05
  year, like it's been a lot better.
• 8:07
  The one where I have, you know, the, the light bar in the back.
• 8:13
  Yeah, the lighting is a lot better.
• 8:14
  And yeah, the lighting makes a lot of difference.
• 8:16
  But suffice to say there's like 3 separate lights I would need
• 8:20
  to haul out to make the video version look like the way it
• 8:25
  has. So we're just not doing that.
• 8:27
  Yeah, but it's OK to be lazy sometimes.
• 8:29
  I, I was so excited to not do the video version because I am
• 8:35
  lazy. I'm very lazy.
• 8:37
  I'm lazy for certain things. I'm lazy for, I mean, I, I like
• 8:45
  tidying up. I don't have a problem against
• 8:48
  tidying things up. But if it's like larger pieces
• 8:54
  of equipment, you know, like no one likes moving, for example,
• 8:59
  right? Like if a little Knick knacks
• 9:01
  here and there. As long as you know, I have a
• 9:03
  place to put everything, that's fine.
• 9:05
  It's not a problem. But larger pieces of equipment,
• 9:09
  it's just moving things back and forth is difficult.
• 9:12
  I remember the days when I used to move without movers.
• 9:17
  You know when you're first out of college and you don't have
• 9:19
  any money and you need to move and you just bribe your friends
• 9:23
  to help you move. You rent a U-Haul, you just
• 9:25
  pinch the pennies and you try to move everything yourself.
• 9:30
  Back in those days, like, you know, in in my early 20s, I
• 9:35
  didn't have a lot of furniture. I had roommates, so I never had
• 9:38
  like living room furniture really.
• 9:40
  I just had like a bed, a mattress, a desk, maybe like a
• 9:48
  ward, a small wardrobe unit. That's pretty much the extent of
• 9:52
  the furniture that I had. But I just shared an apartment
• 9:56
  or a townhouse or whatever. Other people.
• 9:58
  We just all had a room. The living room would be really
• 10:00
  sparse. I remember when I lived in at
• 10:04
  Arlington when I worked in DC just for like a hot minute we
• 10:09
  had at this roommate. We made the move together.
• 10:12
  We got like the same job offer at the DC office together.
• 10:16
  So we moved together. We rented a place together, 2
• 10:19
  bed 2 bath. So obviously we each had our own
• 10:22
  bedrooms and the living room area was actually pretty
• 10:26
  sizable. It's actually a decent size 2
• 10:29
  bed, 2 bath apartment that we rented, but all we had was, I
• 10:35
  remember this like Forest Green couch from IKEA, not a nice one
• 10:41
  from IKEA, like one of the less expensive ones from IKEA.
• 10:46
  And you know that's already scraping the bottom of the
• 10:47
  barrel. I remember it was like Forest
• 10:50
  Green. It was not that comfortable.
• 10:54
  It was like we were like we were in our we were in our 20s.
• 10:58
  Like comfort was not a priority. OK, and we got this small
• 11:05
  shelving unit, also from IKEA, and we put the shelving unit
• 11:10
  right behind the couch. So this shelving unit was only
• 11:14
  maybe like, I don't know, 3 feet wide, but it was about like 5
• 11:20
  feet tall. So we stood it up behind this
• 11:24
  couch, which looks weird, but the reason we did that was my
• 11:28
  roommate. He wanted to get a projector to
• 11:31
  put on the shelving unit and then we just projected it onto
• 11:36
  the white wall that the couch was facing.
• 11:38
  So instead of having ATV, we got a projector.
• 11:40
  So that's why we got that shelving unit to be like that,
• 11:43
  to put that projector on behind the couch.
• 11:45
  Actually it worked pretty well. The projector set up, but that
• 11:48
  was, I think that was all the furniture we had.
• 11:50
  I don't even remember we had any sort of tables in the I don't
• 11:55
  think we had a coffee table or any sort of table.
• 11:59
  We did have, we did have a dining table though, So like
• 12:04
  behind the couch, it was like the dining area.
• 12:07
  So I think we somehow did have a dining table.
• 12:10
  I don't know why we bought it, to be really honest.
• 12:13
  We only rarely had people over like not all the time.
• 12:17
  Sometimes we did, not all the time, but we did have like a
• 12:19
  small dining table there and that was it.
• 12:22
  So it was a couch, a weird looking shelving unit, AA dining
• 12:27
  table. That was it.
• 12:29
  Like, you know, no, we didn't have ATV.
• 12:32
  So there's no TV stand, no coffee table.
• 12:35
  I guess we probably had a had like 4 chairs for this dining
• 12:38
  table. Obviously the kitchen was pretty
• 12:41
  bare because we didn't cook much food.
• 12:45
  We're working on a Google at the time.
• 12:46
  So we ate, we ate well, we definitely had breakfast and
• 12:51
  lunch at work. But when it was, I don't think,
• 12:55
  yeah, that Google office was small.
• 12:56
  So they didn't do dinner. But like, you know, being like
• 12:59
  bachelor's fresh out of College in your 20s, like you can do
• 13:02
  without a lot, you know, it's only when you get older that you
• 13:05
  get used to like all this extra shit that you don't really need.
• 13:09
  You know, I've got all this extra stuff like because you
• 13:12
  know, going from just having roommates and just having a one
• 13:16
  bedroom now I have this two-bedroom place all to myself.
• 13:19
  You, you accumulate shit. The more space you have to
• 13:25
  yourself, the more stuff you buy.
• 13:28
  And like all these little things add up.
• 13:31
  It's like I'm sitting at a massive dining room table that
• 13:34
  you can fit easily fit 8 people and probably 10.
• 13:37
  Like because this table was so long and this table is kind of
• 13:42
  useless. If I, when I move to the next
• 13:43
  place, I can't even keep this table.
• 13:45
  I don't really want to, but this table is like kind of just for
• 13:49
  this apartment doesn't really work anywhere else.
• 13:53
  You know, I'm going to downsize. I think the next place I moved
• 13:56
  to because, you know, it's nice to have all this space.
• 13:59
  I was just talking to my mom because I was just in Vancouver
• 14:03
  for having lunch and I, I was just telling her like, Oh yeah,
• 14:05
  maybe the next place I moved to, maybe I just want, I just want
• 14:11
  one bathroom. I don't want 2 bathrooms anymore
• 14:16
  because every additional bathroom you have to clean, it's
• 14:20
  just like so much more work. You know, if you have like an
• 14:23
  extra table here, an extra like armchair there, it's not that
• 14:27
  much more maintenance. Bathrooms are maintenance, OK.
• 14:31
  And you can't just like let a bathroom sit there and not touch
• 14:34
  it even if you're not using it because of like the pipes and
• 14:38
  the water and the toilet and everything.
• 14:40
  Like you have to clean it regularly even if you don't use
• 14:43
  it. So I've got a guest bathroom
• 14:45
  that doesn't get used. OK.
• 14:48
  Sometimes with David Lamb visits, I just just use my
• 14:51
  bathroom. We just share because my
• 14:53
  bathroom, it's got 2 sinks in it.
• 14:56
  Like it's big enough for like us to be both using it at the same
• 14:59
  time. Like I just rather do that now
• 15:01
  because it's less work to clean one actively used bathroom than
• 15:07
  two actively used bathrooms. OK.
• 15:09
  But the, the bathroom that I, the guest bathroom that doesn't
• 15:12
  really get any use, I still have to go in there like at least
• 15:17
  every other week at least to like to just like clean it a
• 15:22
  little bit. Like you have to have water go
• 15:25
  through the pipes. You can't just like have
• 15:28
  bathroom pipes that don't get any activity even when you're
• 15:32
  not using it sit there. But as you get like pests that
• 15:35
  are through the pipes, you know, you get like it'll start to
• 15:39
  smell like. So these are things I'm
• 15:41
  learning. So even for this bathroom that I
• 15:43
  don't use, I just don't I need to I don't really need to
• 15:45
  bathrooms. It's nice to have extra
• 15:48
  bathrooms and a guest bathroom and a guest bedroom and like an
• 15:51
  office space. Yes, that is nice when you have
• 15:53
  to clean it all by yourself. And I don't generally have a
• 15:57
  problem against cleaning, but I don't want to clean bathrooms
• 16:03
  who no one wants to clean a bathroom.
• 16:05
  OK, I don't mind, you know, like cleaning like the kitchen is
• 16:10
  like, OK, you know, wiping stuff down is fine.
• 16:13
  Having to like clean a bathroom, I don't like having to do that.
• 16:16
  So the next place for sure, even if I have more money.
• 16:20
  I mean, well, the, the, the other way to solve the problem
• 16:23
  is to have someone come clean your place for you regularly.
• 16:28
  That's the other thing. I'm not at the point where I
• 16:30
  want to spend money doing that yet.
• 16:33
  That requires me to have more cash flow, obviously.
• 16:35
  But I'm not at that point where I want to pay someone to come
• 16:41
  regularly to clean my house. But the other thing is I feel
• 16:45
  like maybe even if I did have money, that might not work.
• 16:49
  That's not the perfect solution either.
• 16:51
  But if I feel like I inherited this thing, partially is for my
• 16:56
  mom, I think, but partially it's just me.
• 17:00
  I have this thing where I want things done in a very particular
• 17:05
  way. So yes, I am lazy to clean even
• 17:09
  a second bathroom. You know, there are a lot of
• 17:11
  people out there that clean multiple bathrooms every week
• 17:14
  while having kids and a job. There are people out there doing
• 17:18
  that on the regular. OK.
• 17:20
  But like I said, it's OK to be lazy in moderation and I am
• 17:24
  lazy. So it's possible for me to like
• 17:27
  pay someone to clean, come and clean, clean some stuff every
• 17:30
  week or every other week. But I'm lazy but also picky.
• 17:35
  So I just know that if I hire someone to come in and clean
• 17:39
  stuff, at some point I'm going to like not like some way
• 17:46
  they're doing things. It's like, oh, the cleaning
• 17:48
  product you're using is too smelly.
• 17:50
  I have this problem with cleaning products that have like
• 17:54
  a really strong fragrance in them.
• 17:56
  Like I'm in the condo, so the public areas like the hallways,
• 18:00
  like the entrance, whatever. You know, there's HOA has people
• 18:04
  that come in every week to like obviously clean the common
• 18:07
  areas, which is good because you need them clean.
• 18:09
  But sometimes the cleaning products they use has such a
• 18:13
  strong smell. It's like this doesn't smell
• 18:17
  good #1 and it's like so strong #2 why it just doesn't?
• 18:23
  It's just not nice. You know?
• 18:25
  At the gym that I go to, the Crunch, West Hollywood that's
• 18:28
  about to close down. Sometimes this is almost, this
• 18:33
  is almost TMI. Sometimes when I walk through
• 18:39
  the toilet area. So you go into the locker room.
• 18:42
  Once you're in the locker room, there's like a few different
• 18:45
  areas where the lockers are. The lockers are all spread out,
• 18:48
  but usually the set of lockers that I use, if you just cut
• 18:53
  through where the sinks and the toilets are, it's like a little
• 18:58
  shortcut to get to the set of lockers that I usually frequent.
• 19:03
  So, and obviously you mean when you're working out like you, you
• 19:06
  naturally like go wash your hands and go pee or whatever.
• 19:08
  It's like you just kind of cut through that area anyways.
• 19:11
  But a lot of the times when I cut through, there's sometimes
• 19:15
  it just smells like it smells like someone isn't digesting
• 19:20
  their vegetables when they eat them.
• 19:23
  I think that's as that's like the least gross way to describe
• 19:28
  what it kind of smells like. Like someone who's eating
• 19:31
  vegetables where like maybe their system cannot handle
• 19:34
  vegetables and the vegetables have to like rush up the rear
• 19:37
  exit. That's not too gross, right?
• 19:41
  Anyways, so I started spelling that when I was like, Oh my God,
• 19:45
  like how many, how often is this person coming that they're
• 19:50
  making the toilet area smell like that?
• 19:53
  And then one day somewhat recently, like a couple months
• 19:57
  ago, down to me, I the smell is not from a person.
• 20:01
  I think the smell is from like the cleaning products they're
• 20:04
  using. And like, that's even worse.
• 20:08
  How can you have cleaning product that smells like that?
• 20:13
  That smells like rotting vegetables.
• 20:17
  Not just rotting vegetables by itself, but rotting vegetables
• 20:19
  that some human has tried to process and can't do it.
• 20:24
  I think it's not. It didn't come from a person.
• 20:27
  I think it actually is like the cleaning products or like the
• 20:30
  whatever the the mop water they're using.
• 20:32
  I'm thinking, oh, this smells gross.
• 20:35
  Anyways, I'm not going to that much longer.
• 20:38
  Anyways, I am going to look at some point.
• 20:41
  We'll see. I would love to have a smaller
• 20:45
  place where it's easier for me to be lazy.
• 20:49
  I mean, I think back in those, in those when I was 20s, in my
• 20:54
  20s and it was just so easy to have the minimal amount of
• 20:58
  furniture. I feel like, yeah, like as I
• 21:01
  grew up and I got bigger places and now I live by myself and I
• 21:05
  had a one bedroom when I first live by myself.
• 21:07
  Now it's a 2 bedroom and it's like you just buy stuff to fill
• 21:11
  up the space that you have. And it's, I mean, it's nice to
• 21:14
  have a dining table where you can have like you sit down and
• 21:19
  eat. It's nice to have like an office
• 21:22
  area. Obviously I work from home so
• 21:23
  it's nice to have like an office area.
• 21:25
  And like I still need, even I don't have a room that's like a
• 21:28
  dedicated office. I definitely still need like a
• 21:31
  desk where I can have like a monitor and a computer and do
• 21:36
  proper work. But I use my desk, like, all the
• 21:38
  time, everyday at my desk at some point.
• 21:41
  So yeah. But do I need such a big house?
• 21:45
  If I was less lazy, maybe it would be less of a problem.
• 21:47
  It all revolves around my laziness.
• 21:50
  But yeah, I, I think, I think I'm gonna look for a slightly
• 21:52
  smaller place. We'll see how that goes.
• 21:54
  Housing market is not, I mean, the housing market is it it?
• 21:58
  It's not super awesome right now, but we'll just see.
• 22:02
  We'll just see how things go. I'm not in love with my
• 22:06
  apartment building and I do feel like the people when they're
• 22:10
  home owners, home owners have some sort of it's not like they
• 22:16
  choose to be entitled. Something about being a home
• 22:19
  owner automatically makes you more entitled for some reason.
• 22:23
  I remember when I used to rent in this massive rental building
• 22:28
  back in San Francisco just right before the pandemic, it had like
• 22:32
  hundreds of units, probably like 2 or 300 units or something in
• 22:35
  it. In this building had like 16 or
• 22:37
  17 floors. Each floor had probably at least
• 22:40
  like 30 something, 40 something, something like units per floor.
• 22:45
  It's pretty big building. And I lived there for, I think
• 22:49
  about a year and a half, maybe about a year and a half.
• 22:54
  And I never, I almost never ran into anyone else.
• 23:00
  Could you imagine living in a big ass apartment building that
• 23:04
  has so many, that's hundreds of units and rarely ever running
• 23:08
  into anyone else that lives there?
• 23:09
  It's not like the building was vacant.
• 23:12
  You know, it was like most, the vast majority of the units were
• 23:16
  filled up. It wasn't some sort of like
• 23:18
  building where half the units were empty.
• 23:20
  It wasn't like that. Could you imagine?
• 23:22
  Like, not running into anyone? Isn't that weird?
• 23:26
  But isn't that also fucking amazing?
• 23:30
  But I don't want to. I don't want to know or hear
• 23:40
  about my neighbors. Do whatever you want.
• 23:43
  Live your own life. You do you and now do me.
• 23:47
  But I don't, I want to, I don't really want to like see you, I
• 23:51
  don't want to hear you. I don't want your car being
• 23:55
  stopped in the driveway and blocking everybody's car.
• 23:57
  Literally this happened yesterday in my building, which
• 24:00
  is a condo. So it's all home owners.
• 24:03
  Like we have this one driveway that you go in and out of the
• 24:08
  parking garage on the ground level and they chose to just
• 24:12
  like stop it in, in the, they just stopped the car in the
• 24:15
  driveway. So it's blocking the gate and
• 24:16
  they're like loading their kids or grandparents or whatever
• 24:20
  stuff. It's like, you know, just don't
• 24:22
  do that there. I know it's convenient for them
• 24:26
  to do it there because like the front door is right.
• 24:28
  The front door entrance to the building is right beside the
• 24:31
  driveway. They've stopped their SUV in the
• 24:34
  driveway. They're like loading a kid in
• 24:35
  the back, clearly. See, the mom is like fuzzing
• 24:39
  over a car seat in the back. And it's like just don't stop
• 24:42
  there. Like pull, do it on the curb.
• 24:45
  Like you could, you could have just stopped at the curb and not
• 24:47
  be blocking anyone and then take your time.
• 24:50
  I see. I think a lot of people do do
• 24:52
  this, do stuff like that. They should be like, oh, we're
• 24:54
  just, we're just taking a second.
• 24:56
  I think normal people all behave like that.
• 24:59
  I always feel like I'm the rare person that like I'll
• 25:03
  proactively go out of my way to not be in other people's way,
• 25:09
  but I feel like most people do not do that.
• 25:12
  Like people get mad when other people are inconsiderate, but
• 25:16
  they don't care if they're inconsiderate.
• 25:20
  You know what I mean? I always get that feeling like
• 25:22
  this car that's like blocking the driveway, it's like they
• 25:24
  they clearly need the extra time to get their kid buckled into
• 25:28
  the back and loading cargo or like whatever.
• 25:31
  It's like, can't you do that while not blocking the parking
• 25:36
  garage? They clearly think, oh, we'll
• 25:39
  just be like a minute. Like it's just a minute, it'll
• 25:42
  be fine. They're not really thinking
• 25:44
  about their that someone else, one of their neighbors would be
• 25:48
  coming home at the same time that they're stopped there.
• 25:50
  Obviously, I feel like most people don't think about that at
• 25:54
  all, but oh, we're not parking here, We're just stopping for a
• 25:57
  bit. But they're not actually
• 25:58
  thinking about that, so they just do it.
• 26:01
  But if the like, if the shoe was on the other end and like I was
• 26:06
  stopping for a minute there, would they care?
• 26:09
  Maybe yes, maybe no, who can say.
• 26:12
  But I wasn't happy about it. But I just feel like I in my
• 26:17
  head, the narrative is I try hard to be considerate all the
• 26:24
  time without having to have someone being blocked by my car
• 26:29
  before I become considerate. Like I'm just proactively
• 26:33
  considerate. It's clearly a common area.
• 26:36
  You're clearly stopped in front of a gate.
• 26:37
  Like people are not supposed to like park in front of a driveway
• 26:40
  for a reason. It's just common sense.
• 26:42
  So when stuff like that happens, it's annoying to me.
• 26:47
  Like I was like, I pulled a face in the car just because I was
• 26:50
  annoyed. And it's like when I'm in my car
• 26:52
  and you're blocking me, I can pull whatever face or expression
• 26:55
  that I want. You did not get to have any
• 26:59
  control, have any expectations about how I'm going to react in
• 27:04
  the in within my own car when you are blocking me and I'm
• 27:09
  trying to just park my car and come home.
• 27:11
  So that's why I'm so great. That's why I thought of like,
• 27:13
  oh, the last place I live, it was just a rented part.
• 27:16
  It was great, but I never ran into anyone, never ran into my
• 27:20
  bus. Renters kind of all tend to feel
• 27:24
  more like that. They all like tend to like not
• 27:28
  really that care that much about ones to like get to know their
• 27:31
  neighbors and do all that. I don't like fringing interest
• 27:36
  in my neighbors. I'd even want to say hi to
• 27:39
  anyone in my building. I just want everyone to get
• 27:41
  lost. I just want to get the fuck out
• 27:43
  of my way, you know, and and that's annoying.
• 27:45
  Like I, I think I told the story of like I was using one of the
• 27:49
  this is the other thing that bugs me is that I can't have in
• 27:51
  in suite laundry. So I was watching something and
• 27:54
  like this old lady, I OK, I remember I did tell, I did
• 27:58
  mention this on the podcast. This old lady gave me shit for
• 28:00
  about about how I was using the laundry machines.
• 28:03
  OK, this is raising my blood pressure.
• 28:07
  And if I keep going, I'm just going to rant.
• 28:10
  So many things in some so so many things in daily life pissed
• 28:15
  me off. And living in a condo of home
• 28:19
  owners from that point of view, it's more annoying than living
• 28:24
  in a building of renters. But I feel like what everyone's
• 28:29
  renting, it's like everyone just keeps to themselves more.
• 28:32
  There's no desire or expectation to like have any sort of
• 28:37
  relationship with your neighbors because renters tend to be more
• 28:40
  transient when it's like a condo, for example, and it was a
• 28:44
  home owner. Like people like people are
• 28:47
  there for longer. You buy a house, not just to
• 28:49
  live there for like a year. You're, you could be there for
• 28:52
  like 5 or 10 or 15 or 20 years. So people tend to like, want to
• 28:56
  develop relationships and like be nice and say hi to I don't
• 29:01
  want any of that shit. I didn't buy, I, I didn't buy a
• 29:04
  house so I can talk to you. You know, I bought a house so
• 29:09
  that I have a house to live in, not so that you can come up to
• 29:12
  me and say hi and give me shit about how I'm doing my laundry
• 29:15
  in the washing machine. There you go.
• 29:19
  Well, I hope you enjoyed this video less version.
• 29:21
  This is so we're going to go out on YouTube.
• 29:22
  Obviously you, some of you have been listening to this on
• 29:24
  YouTube. It's just going to be the cover
• 29:27
  art for the podcast, but this is really nice not to do.
• 29:31
  It's been nice not to do a video version, but eventually
• 29:35
  depending on how long stuff is going on with my house,
• 29:38
  eventually I will break the camera equipment back out.
• 29:44
  I'm wondering if for the uncut episode.
• 29:46
  I think for the uncut episode though for this weekend, which
• 29:48
  are the uncuts are exclusive for my Patreon subscribers.
• 29:54
  It's still going to be a video version, but it's a there's a
• 29:57
  chance that it might not be the regular video setup with the
• 30:03
  full lighting and everything. I have to give it a little
• 30:05
  thought, but I feel like for my Patreon subscribers, they're
• 30:07
  paying money, so they deserve a little bit more.
• 30:10
  So maybe I still do a video version of them.
• 30:12
  Well, will I do a video version for Uncut?
• 30:14
  You're going to have to subscribe to my Patreon and find
• 30:17
  out. The links are down below.
• 30:18
  But until next time, bye y'all.
