Transcript
- 0:00I want to read this text really quick here.
- 0:02You had just mentioned that you were eyeballing a well all the sales, by the way.
- 0:05This starts with all the sales are over.
- 0:07All the Memorial Day stuff that you were like, oh yeah, that's gonna be great.
- 0:11Oh, he extended it, thank God I can do it.
- 0:12And then you're like, oh, I missed it.
- 0:14And it happened to me because I was looking at and it would just happen so happened to be Memorial Day week.
- 0:18I was looking at patio furniture and it was a slamming deal.
- 0:22And then all of a sudden I went to go buy it now because we got paid on the last day of the month.
- 0:26So on June 1st, I clicked on this patio furniture and it went up exponentially.
- 0:31So retailers are good at this.
- 0:33They know June is the month where there's nothing, you know, there's no big holiday to big promote around it.
- 0:38Uh I mean July 4th is coming, we know that, but that's a ways out.
- 0:42So June, you know, we're this is your pay full price month.
- 0:45It feels like eon's away, 4th of July.
- 0:48And uh Crystal sent this over.
- 0:50She said, uh Target has Adirondack chairs for$25.
- 0:54No.
- 0:55There's a reason that an Adirondack chair has now dropped to$25.
- 0:59First of all, I don't need it to feel like I'm doing an ab workout when I am sitting in this chair.
- 1:03I always I have a double chair.
- 1:06It's not comfortable.
- 1:08Oh, I hate an Adirondack chair.
- 1:10Ellie's leaned all the way back at it.
- 1:11You're lucky your chair didn't just flip over.
- 1:13I hate it so much.
- 1:14You're sitting on the ground practically.
- 1:16Right.
- 1:16You know, you know where an Adirondack chair works?
- 1:19Wait, wait.
- 1:19Me getting up is like, huh.
- 1:21Oh my god, you have to roll over and get on your knees.
- 1:24And and I know it's like, I'm just here for a cookout.
- 1:2820 years old, you're still rolling over on your knees to get up to be able to get a hot dog.
- 1:33Adirondack chairs belong in one place.
- 1:35The Adirondacks at an old motel that somehow still looks very, very well kept.
- 1:40They're always on the side of the road, too.
- 1:42And I every time I drive by, I'm like, nobody wants you.
- 1:45No, so there's a reason they're$25.
- 1:47The bastard camping chair.
- 1:49Oh, God, they suck.
- 1:51They do really suck.
- 1:52And then moving them, they're 189 pounds.
- 1:55Even the plastic ones.
- 1:56I don't care.
- 1:58There's no way to pick it up to be able to make it easy.
- 2:00Right.
- 2:00Like you.
- 2:01Again, I have a double chin.
- 2:02I'm like, I hate the Adirondack chair.
- 2:06Yeah.
- 2:07You know what would be worse than an Adirondack chair?
- 2:09An Adirondack couch.
- 2:11Oh my God.
- 2:12Yeah.
- 2:12No, I don't need to try to like roll over on someone else just to get off the couch.
- 2:17So true.
- 2:18Adirondack chairs need to go to Adirondack Hell.
- 2:20Oh my God, they suck.
- 2:22They really do.
- 2:22Now you know why they're 25 bucks.
- 2:24All right, on to another thing that also stays within the theme of things we've talked about this week on the show.
- 2:30What?
- 2:30So this week, earlier in the show, and I thought it was pretty awesome, I'm not gonna lie.
- 2:35What?
- 2:35The bird in a bag.
- 2:37The bird in a bag.
- 2:39Yes.
- 2:39Yes, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
- 2:40This was on our stories.
- 2:41I don't think it's up anymore.
- 2:42Oh, it's on our Facebook, you can go see it.
- 2:44Oh, is it?
- 2:45Okay.
- 2:45So I was at a place.
- 2:46Well, okay, I was at Lydia's school, and I thought this was the coolest thing.
- 2:50And I couldn't wait to tell you because Zach's a bird nerd, and I'm like, no, he ain't no bird nerd.
- 2:54This lady, bird nerd.
- 2:56Okay.
- 2:56She brings her cockatiel in a I mean a backpack.
- 2:59It's a high-end backpack.
- 3:01It's it what's crazy about it is not only, of course it's see-through, so you can see it in all its beauty, but it even has a little perch in there.
- 3:08It's the cutest little thing, honestly.
- 3:10I thought it was the coolest thing.
- 3:11I mean, what am I finding?
- 3:12I don't know.
- 3:12I didn't ask her.
- 3:13Remember, I told you I was too scared to talk to her.
- 3:15You should have sent Lydia.
- 3:16I do.
- 3:16Well, what am I getting?
- 3:17Yeah, but no, Lydia was she wasn't sitting with me.
- 3:20She was in school.
- 3:21We were waiting to be brought into the school through the security measures.
- 3:25I figured, I figured that after her whatever you were there for, her song, dance, t-shirt, pizza, popcorn day.
- 3:31All in one.
- 3:32Yes.
- 3:33There it was.
- 3:34I figured that Lydia would come and be like, Dad, dad, dad.
- 3:36And then you can be like, Lydia, go ask that lady, whatever.
- 3:39That's the bird lady of Elmira what the deal is.
- 3:42But I just thought anyway, it was something I'd never seen, and I thought it was cool.
- 3:46But now we come to this.
- 3:47There's a parakeet, it's on the loose in this Scottish suburb, and it's being blamed for causing thousands of dollars in damage thanks to its pecker.
- 3:56That's right, by pecking away at the rubber parts of people's cars.
- 4:01Here's Angus.
- 4:02It'd be nice if it was caught humanely and taken away.
- 4:04And obviously it's domesticated bird.
- 4:07So somebody could look after it.
- 4:09Putting a cover in your car is a solution.
- 4:11But every time you go it, you've got to take the cover off, and it's not ideal.
- 4:14Okay, I don't know a thing Angus is saying, but because he has the Scottish accent, I'm gonna let him finish.
- 4:22So now my car is so badly damaged, I'm not sure it could do any more damage, so I'm just leaving it until I need to change my car and then I'll get it fixed.
- 4:31By which time it will be resolved, hopefully.
- 4:33Yep, that's right, Angie.
- 4:34This reminds me of Cup half full all the time.
- 4:36When we were in New England, me and my two girlfriends, we walked into a restaurant and some guy was speaking with a with a British accent.
- 4:44And she legit looks at me and she's like, I don't know.
- 4:47I don't know what he's saying.
- 4:48I'm like, How do I put on the subtitles in real life?
