  SPEAKER_01: Oh God, that is great.
• 2:39
  SPEAKER_00: It is just such real life.
• 2:40
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, man.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_00: Also, real life, when you go past a lot of yards in the next month, you're gonna see this.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_00: Skeleton after 12-foot skeleton after 12-foot skeleton.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_00: Are they becoming so annoying now?
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_00: I love Halloween.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_01: Annoying more is the shiny new thing kind of wearing off.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_01: We were on our way to Rochester Sunday for a useless haul to Costco, which I could have just done.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_01: I could have gotten everything that I got there at Sam's Club except my sausage links that they only sell at Costco.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_01: Big deal.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_01: You know, I mean it was just one of those things, well, and cheap gas.
• 3:14
  SPEAKER_00: But yeah, but then you pay gas to get cheap gas.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_00: That doesn't make sense.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_00: It just was I I've between you and me and the wall.
• 3:22
  SPEAKER_01: I'm beginning to have uh issues with the fact that we don't have a Costco here.
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_01: We have a Sam's Club, which I love.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_01: I frequent that quite a bit.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_01: But every once in a while, I'll say, let's go do a Costco haul.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_01: Unimpressed.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, they do have good pita chips too.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_01: But again it's the pretty much oh no.
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_01: PETA chips go to TJ Maxx.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_01: Uh these ones are are pretty pretty up top of the line.
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_01: But nonetheless, it just was it didn't overly excite me the way that it used to.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: Like I'm like, I can do this at Sam's.
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_00: Again, it's the overhyped everything.
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_00: Overhyped 12 foot skeleton.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, so we passed one on the way up there.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, not a big one.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_00: Overhyped skeleton Costco.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, go ahead.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_01: No, no, the uh skeleton.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_00: No, I know.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_00: I'm just saying th those two things are overhyped.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_00: 12-foot skeleton, Costco.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_01: The the skeleton we saw, which was still up because clearly those homeowners either are lazy or way ahead of Halloween.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_01: Either they kept it up all year and they're like, we'll decorate for the season, uh-huh.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_01: Or they're like, we'll get ahead of it.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't stop and ask.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_01: The thing had a red, white, and blue bikini on.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, that is kind of awesome.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, I was laughing at that.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_01: But you know, I do think like the big shiny luster of almost 10 years ago.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_01: You gotta keep in mind, this is almost 10 years ago that the uh 12-foot skeletons became like the hottest thing.
• 4:32
  SPEAKER_01: Two would show up at a Home Depot and there'd be a fist fight.
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_01: Because remember, Home Depot was the originator.
• 4:36
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_01: And uh I don't I I don't want to say they're uh that they're just losing their luster.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_01: I think if you have one, great.
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_01: Do I think they're gonna have the kind of booming sales that everybody wanted them back, you know, years ago?
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_00: I don't think so.
• 4:53
  SPEAKER_00: It's unoriginal, and I think they're getting to the point of the inflatable decorations, too.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_01: Ooh, that's a that's a smile on the face.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, bold statement, yes.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_00: I I I just don't see if the only uh 12-foot skeleton thing that I'm gonna be looking forward to, if you go to Canadagua, and this is gonna be probably in the next actually, if you think about it, it is gonna be with the next couple weeks that they're gonna put this out.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_00: They have kind of like a big parade of them, and they look like there's like these skeletons around a Viking ship.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_00: This guy has like 200 of them.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: Is this the place you walk through up there?
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_01: I've been there.
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_01: Last year we went there.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_00: It's awesome.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_01: It is, it's very cool, and and and it works there.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: Right, exactly.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_01: But the But in your average front yard, I don't know anymore.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: That's what I'm saying.
• 5:37
  SPEAKER_00: I just I I just think that it's it just doesn't do it for me.
• 5:41
  SPEAKER_00: Here's the thing it's like how you feel about pumpkin spice, is how I feel about the 12-foot skeleton.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_00: Just kind of over it.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_01: Here's the thing.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_01: I feel like if you have one and you decide to put it up, although that seems like a pain in the butt, but if you do have one and you put it up, great.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_01: I just don't see them going, let's go buy a hundred, you know, let's let's let's fight for them.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_00: I'm I'm almost glad that I didn't do it because I remember the first year or two.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, you wanted one.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_00: I really did.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_00: And then I think the the part of it was I didn't want people to know where I lived, so I didn't want to draw attention to our house.
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_00: That would do it.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, even though the yard that I had was really perfect for a 12-foot skeleton.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_01: You know where where I think the 12 foot skeleton started to lose it?
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_01: Where?
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_01: It wasn't exclusive anymore when they came out with the skeleton dog, and then they came out with the skeleton this.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_00: I do have a skeleton cat.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, well because I like to freak Junior out.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_00: I push the button and it's like that's great.
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_01: Take the hundred year old dog and just give him some sort of a breakdown.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_00: Heart attack.
