• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I wear him today. And I'm mainly thinking of jeans.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: For some reasons. Yeah, and Eric would make a good couple,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: the odd couple. Yeah, well, because he does the same thing,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: the big thing. I think the last time we got
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: hung up on this, you and I was because Eric
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: had gotten like a box of underwear for his birthday
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: or you had gotten one and he just like yay

  Speaker 2: and put him on. And it's like, no, you wash
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: those first, And you agreed with Eric, You're like that,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: just wear him.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: A lot of times, I'll buy new underwear and I
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: know I should probably wash him first, but I'm like,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: what could happen? Like if I wear them all day
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: and they haven't been washed brand new, what's the worst
• 1:51
