MikeAnother month from now you're rehearing it again.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, yeah, I'm sure. Well, yeah, we'll all be hearing it. Right. So I just thought, hey man, let's let's do this.
SPEAKER_06Okay, so you walked right into that.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat's funny because I was thinking about saying it earlier and he I didn't he pulled it up. Damn it. Yeah. Sorry. So I'm chopping it up with Ray It and Mike. And that's that's I'm starting with that phrase because I hate it. And then the chopping it up. It's so a lot of people say that nowadays. You know, you hear it on talk radio and stuff. Yeah, we're chopping it up with so-and-so and so-and-so. And um, and that's I promise everybody, it's the last time I'm gonna use it and like that for sure. It sounds kind of dumb, doesn't it? It really does.
RayetteSounds like it should be on a cooking show.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, that would work. Yeah. Or, you know, serial killers.
SPEAKER_05There you go. Yeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonOr if l if Loranda Bobbit had a show. There you go. She could call it chopping it up. Chopping it up with That's perfect. Clip and snip. And if you don't know who Loranda Bobbit is, Google it. Google it. And you'll understand what the hell we're talking about.
MikeSo I know that the modern-day circumcision, oil, different kind.

Go on cosmetic, do it right. Do it. Go big or go home. There's one. There's one. Boy, isn't that that's that's an overused son of a bitch. I mean, go big or go home. Yeah, that's that's been if you're at hometown buffet, that's not good.
MikeIf you're at hometown buffet anyway, it's not good, but yeah. Different colors with the same taste. Hometown buffet had good fried chicken though. Nah, dude. I it's that must be why it closed down here.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. Well, little do they know that there's gonna be 17,000 chicken joints here.
SPEAKER_05That's right.
Jeffy McJeffersonThey're racking them up. They're racking them up. So I know Raya said she had some because but she wouldn't divulge those yesterday, I guess, because she's keeping it secret. What's one that you don't like or is overused, or what?
RayetteThat's what she said.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh, that one that one is like that one is it's a little overused.
MikeNot very original. It is, man. And but I never say that's what he said.
RayetteBecause he never says anything worth a shit.
MikeThere you go.
Jeffy McJeffersonRight. That is one. It's like shit.
SPEAKER_06No comeback on that one.
Jeffy McJeffersonI have nothing on that one. I was gonna I was gonna defer to Mike because I thought he had an answer for damn near everything like that, and he didn't. Shut I'm still on my first search. I haven't got my creativity quite yet.
KristaYeah, sure. Oh, is that what it is?
SPEAKER_06No pregame today.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh, yeah. Yeah, we're in the early pregame today, so yeah. Maybe I'll shut up.
RayetteThis is probably the soberest podcast ever.
Jeffy McJeffersonProbably it's early. Because I had one and that was it, and now I'm on this one. So yeah.
MikeYeah. That's what she said. So normally it's referring to some type of penis size. I think it is.
RayetteIs it?
MikeYeah, normally.
RayetteReally? I didn't know that.
MikeOr it could be that's what your mother said. I think that's what your mom said or whatever.
Jeffy McJeffersonI think I don't know, man. Anytime something like that says sexual references, something like that. Or I don't even know. Man, well, you might have to Google that for it. Oh, you got stuff up. Never mind. But yeah, that's what she said.
unknownOkay.
RayetteOh, it was popularized heavily by shows like The Office.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, but that was even before The Office was there.
RayetteOh no. It was popular popularized by that.
MikeOkay.
RayetteSo it was probably before that, and then they started saying it on there, and then everybody was there.
Jeffy McJeffersonThey're the ones that ruined it.
RayetteBecause it's the Office. It got big and whatever.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, 6'7 shit's dumb, too.
RayetteOh, that was on my list. I don't even know what the hell that means, but it is so stupid.
MikeIs that the thing the kids are saying now? 6'7.
Rayette6'7.
MikeI don't know.
Jeffy McJeffersonGrandson pulled that on the floor. What if you're a basketball player and you were 6'7? God, everyone.
RayetteWell, who's gonna question him when he says it? Nobody. Because he's looking down on your ass, going, Who's got a better than I'm gonna do? I'll show you who's six seven.
Jeffy McJeffersonSix seven.
unknownYeah.
RayetteBut I just don't even I don't I know. It's just dumb.
MikeI uh there's gotta be something behind it, but I don't know what it is.
RayetteI heard that if like your kids keep saying it, then you just go eight nine ten and it pisses them off. Like just start counting after them. And they're like six seven, you just go eight, nine, ten.
MikeYeah, but nowadays these kids get above ten and they don't know what you're talking about. Or you can sort of run out of fingers.
Jeffy McJeffersonOr you can slap their lips off, and then we don't have to fucking worry about six, seven anymore. There you go.
RayetteYeah, I would have stopped that in my house.
MikeOh god, that would that would have
Kid Talk And The Count To Three
Mikebeen okay. Since we're on kids, here's the one that drives me nuts. Let's do it. One, two. It's like, what do you do if you get the three and the kid doesn't stop doing what they're supposed to do?
RayetteDude, you beat their ass.
MikeWell, how about my dad's either one, two, three was his belt went click, like, oh, I should stop now. Yeah, that's one. And then there is no two.
SPEAKER_06Pull it out.
MikeYou count the three, and the kid looks at you and keeps doing it like, now what?
SPEAKER_06Or and then you go three and a half.
Jeffy McJeffersonRight.
SPEAKER_06Or two and a half.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd then you have two and three quarters. The parents like, don't make me do this now. You know, it should have already been done. Take care of the little fucker. I mean, take care of the little fucker.
MikeYeah. Shit.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, I think I never won two threed.
MikeNo. I I think that was the dumbest thing ever. Yeah. That's the worst thing.
RayetteI probably did, but I never got to three. Oh, it's because their ass would have been whooped.
MikeOne. Smack.
Jeffy McJeffersonHa, kid ya.
RayetteYeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonIt was a that was less than a half of one, and their ass was already kicked.
MikeYou know, it's not easy being a parent. They don't always need a friend, they need a parent. And if you discipline right, you don't have to do it right all. You don't really have to. Kids just want to know where the lion is, and once you establish it, they're good.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. That's good, good counting.
MikeYou know, every species on the planet has survival of the fittest. You know, the weakest get picked off at the back that herd and the ones in front breed. We take the ones in the back, put them in the front, and subsidize them. You know what? Here you go. You got plenty of time. Go have babies. And count to them.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd then I'll and then they kneel down to get to the same level as the kid because to talk to him and soft parent. Yeah. Negotiating with a three-year-old is not easy.
RayetteNo.
Jeffy McJeffersonSorry. I'm standing, I'm standing over you, man. Just like you know, like I fucking just scored a touchdown on your ass, man, and you know stuff. No. You know, speaking of touchdowns. Yeah.
MikeThat last touchdown the duck scored. Mm-hmm. Valuable. Yeah.
KristaWhere were we? How valuable was that? Yeah. He wasn't 6'7.
Jeffy McJeffersonSo clap clap back.
SPEAKER_05Clap back?
Jeffy McJeffersonYou're clapping back. You know, saying, you know, if somebody says something, oh, you clap back. Yeah.
RayetteI don't know that I've heard that one much.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh, that's I'll be honest. That's it, man.
SPEAKER_06You got the clap back?
Jeffy McJeffersonThere's a cream for that record. There's an ointment. I thought that was a Rams thing.
MikeOh God. God, if he shows up at the uh store this year, we will not we will not know him until the Rams do something. And you're gonna hear that. We're all gonna turn around and look at him. I won't remember the face this time.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, one guy that I I clapped for, you know, last week, then you were right behind him and stuff like that. And I go, all right, because I was making it sound like, hey, dude, man, Mike's here. And he was in that snapper jersey. And he came back yesterday.
RayetteJust dressed normal, though.
Jeffy McJeffersonNo, he had a ram shirt.
RayetteOh, he did? Oh, I didn't see that.
Jeffy McJeffersonHe didn't have a jersey, but he had a ram shirt with cut-off sleeves.

MikeWell, that's a fact. Oh, Jesus, it's already started. Ricky Pearsall, first play in practice of the done. Out for the air. Wasn't Shanahan hurt first? Yeah. Correct, yeah. Yeah. It's it's uh here
Facebook Speak And Fake Friends
Mikewe go. So damn electric power plant.
Jeffy McJeffersonSo you don't have I know, and they keep showing that. But there's also like the shit on Facebook, if anybody caught or if they post something, and the phrase now that pisses me off is like, I'll take things that never happened for 500, Alex.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat shit is god. Thank God you're not on Facebook, dude, because that is all the time.
MikeDo you know why I don't do social media? Yeah, well. I think the funniest thing in the world is I had a patient who was moving, and I I said, You got you got, you know, you're doing movers? He goes, No, I've got over 400 Facebook friends. Guess how many showed up? Zero. So when you say I've got Facebook friends, you've got people you never met in your life, and you go back and forth. Yeah. I that's really hard to call a friend. I mean, in my day, you had to meet somebody to become their friend.
RayetteI think I'd like everybody on my Facebook friends.
MikeGood.
RayetteLike they're either cla old classmates or like Yeah. You know, friends from scrapbooking or family or I mean, I I can't say I probably have a handful or so of people that I've never met, but I've probably interacted with them in some way, shape, or form that that's why they're on my Facebook.
Jeffy McJeffersonI don't go out looking for, and I'm air quoting since we don't have the camera, Facebook friends or f you know and stuff like that. I don't go out looking for Facebook.
RayetteI don't care whether I have three or six hundred.
MikeWell, here's a term that Facebook brought up that I don't like is I unfriended you. How do you how do you unfriend me?
RayetteBig deal.
MikeThat was a that was we won't show what Raya did. Okay, she was using the J-O-me. Yeah. But I mean, how do you unfriend somebody? It's like I how about you say that blocked you?
Jeffy McJeffersonI blocked. You know, I know if somebody pisses me off, I just block them and say, fuck him. I don't I don't need you.
RayetteLife's too short to worry about that shit, man. Life is way too short.
unknownYeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat's why I don't do something.
RayetteYou know another phrase that irritates me? Yeah. YOLO.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh. What's that?
RayetteYou only live once. Oh.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat one's when YOLO is way overused too. All I could think about was BOGO there. Well, she likes Bogo.
RayetteI like Bogo. You're the Koopon queen. That's in my coupons.
Jeffy McJeffersonBeing that. Yeah, being the coupon queen. She loves BOGO. Yeah.
RayetteSo Love me a BOGO.

Class Reunion Without Social Media
MikeHere's the thing. By me not doing Facebook or any media. I had my 40-year class reunion last weekend. I think I told you this, but I mean, it was so weird walking to a place with a bunch of people who, since I haven't been to the 10, 20, or 30, I looked at these people and they're like, Mike, one woman came up and almost had relations with me, and I had no clue who she was. I mean, just sitting there with all these people going, I I recognize some, some people I could tell. Sure. But some people it was like, I sat there and I just tried to remember something.
RayetteBecause you didn't see any reminders on Facebook throughout the years.
MikeI haven't seen people change. I mean, to me, they all would look like we'd have been graduated.
RayetteI'm you know right, right.
MikeSome didn't. But I was sitting there with one across the table with this girl, and I was like, Some of them had a lot of botox. There was and we did have a one star show up. She was my first girlfriend. I was looking, and I didn't recognize her. Like, Mike, I'm like, Jerry Johnson. Like, holy shit. Okay. But I mean, it was there was there were several times where all of a sudden clicked. Yeah. And I and I did. I saw her and I was like, oh my God. I said, and she goes, I thought you were just blowing me off. I'm like, no, I'm just trying hard to put faces to people.
RayetteNo, but you blew me off once, I bet. Did you say that?
MikeNo, I remember when you blew me off? But it was it was a really awkward thing. I'd never been in something like that.
RayetteYeah.
MikeAnd I there was this one person sitting next to one of our classmates, and I seriously thought it was like a parent who was disabled and had they were watching and had and had them there because they looked literally 70-something years old. Yeah. And as we went to the next venue, they gave us five name cut cards, and he walked by me and said, Mike, how you doing? I'm like, looked down and was like, shit, you're one of us.

And you should.
RayetteHopefully they come on every other song for you at least.
MikeI was going to Ben and got in a spot where there's no internet. And so the only songs I could listen to are ones I've already listened to, and I just happened to be in the Alice and Change loop. I was like, oh, perfect.

RayetteYou're just proving how dumb it is.
MikeYeah.
RayetteYeah.
MikeI mean here's one that that it you know, we get so used to saying it, we don't think about it. But I was talking to somebody from Scotland one time. They goes, you know, you Americans, when you ask how somebody's doing, you don't really care. So if you ask us, we care. So we'll sit, we'll sit and talk. But if you walk up to somebody and said, How you doing? If they really stopped and told you how they're doing, you'd be like, fuck, I don't have time for this. I didn't really mean it.
RayetteI mean, you're probably 100% true, right there.
MikeI mean, if I was saying how you doing, somebody just started breaking down and giving up me their life story. I'm like, dude, I'm sorry I said that.
Jeffy McJeffersonI'm guilty of saying that.
MikeWe all do.
Jeffy McJeffersonHow are you doing? How are you doing?
MikeYeah, and then it's a good thing. But if anybody answered, you'd be like, Yeah. What the hell? I mean, like, are we having a moment? Dude, yeah. Yeah.
RayetteAnd you'd be like, I didn't sign up for this.
MikeYeah, geez. Does this term therapist on my front door? You open that door. Luckily, nobody ever walks through it.
RayetteAnd if they do, one day someone will.
MikeOh, and they're gonna be nutty enough fruitcake.
Jeffy McJeffersonWell, yeah. It did happen to you that one twisted tea guy. Oh, yeah. Uh-huh. Good point.
SPEAKER_05Oh, that's right.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah.
unknownYeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonOkay. That was like I said. Okay, I just said it. Saw it right off. But yeah, that was like dude, man.
RayetteYeah, that's a good example right there.

Jeffy McJeffersonThat's something vegans would say. San Franciscans can say that because they do have a bay. I love my bay. I love my bay. Damn, I had one on top of my head too, and then and then I totally forgot because you went bay on it. I was like, damn. You you really did get to him on that one. Thanks a lot, Bay. Um, let's see. Yeah, bae. But there is oh god, what was it? Damn, I'm pissed up. Well, I'm kind of just going through shit here. Oh, oh, oh.
Trendy Sayings We Keep Repeating
Jeffy McJeffersonOkay, and this isn't it, but now people like call themselves boy mom or boy dad or girl dad or girl mom or like baby mama? It's like, dude, you're you're a mom, you're a dad. Oh. I gotcha. Good point.
RayetteI think that started with like hats and stuff like that and t-shirts.
MikeWell, can't be more annoying than baby on board, that sticker. Oh. Like, I give a shit. I'm not gonna rear into you anyway. Oh, yeah, I know. Baby on board.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd I couldn't give her I couldn't give a rat's S if a fucking baby's on.
RayetteI think that started though as like a thing like if you got in a wreck, you had those bright yellow signs that like EMS could tell that you had a baby on there. But what if you didn't have your baby on there that day?
MikeAnd does it really matter?
RayetteDo you are you taking the sign out?
MikeAnd if I'm I'd rather look at that side, oh god, I was gonna come up rear end you, but yeah, well, you got a kid in there, shit.
RayetteWell, and now they've changed it to where it's just like a sticker, and it could be baby Yoda on board or baby like they've changed it so much that the actual reason they came out with that is Oh, I didn't even know there was a reason. Null and void now. Like Yeah, they would do the It was like a precaution thing at first, I think, is why it came out.
MikeDon't you think that MS people would open the door and see the baby?
RayetteI mean, what if you're like upside down or something? I don't know. I mean, I get why it was started, but they've taken it so far that they took the FU out of fun.
Jeffy McJeffersonDamn, dude, you almost got me on a drink there, some bitch. Man, that was almost a sprinkler system on that. Oh, okay. I do remember the one. I was today years old when I found that out.
RayetteOr when I learned. I was today's years old when I learned.
Jeffy McJeffersonToday, years old. Not not like one year old or whatever. I was today year year old when I found this. And people say that shit. That didn't even really make sense.
MikeThank you. Okay, good. I just make sure we're on the same page.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh, we're on the same page. That's why that's why we're doing that. We're educating everybody. EduMcated. EduMicated.
RayetteEduMicated.
Jeffy McJeffersonGolly, people listen to this show and get educated. What was it in the 90s when it was hooked on phonics? Yeah, it worked for a lot of people. I see that they they used to have the hooked on uh uh hooked on phonics shirts, man. That was kind of funny, but they spelled phonics wrong. Should be an F. P-H-O-N-I-K-S or something like that, and it was really kind of funny. Yeah. How about adulting? Adulting. Adulting. I have to, you know, adult today, or it's adulting. You know, sorry, some people have to be off themselves. This thing says paying bills and doing laundry are not heroic feats. They're Tuesday. Yeah.
KristaWell, everybody wants a trophy.
SPEAKER_05Used to be the person who got the trophy was who won.
MikeNow it's just participated.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd see, that's another one, the participation trophy, man. That's kind of fucking stupid.

SPEAKER_05Is that what that is?
Jeffy McJeffersonJust saying. Just saying. Just saying. Just saying.
SPEAKER_05People use that all the time. Just saying.
MikeYou know, getting lubed up.
KristaIs it weird that lubricant sounds like lubricant? I mean, there's some brilliance in that word.
SPEAKER_05Like lube, my yeah.
KristaLubricant.
MikeIf you just kind of reverse to it, because you know it's just a lube of love.
RayetteI mean, you're not wrong. I know.
Jeffy McJeffersonOtherwise I'd call it lubricant. Luberdick. Luber scarf starfish.
MikeIt could be called so many things. Of course, now I mean it could be lube her dick, too, because you know, we can all be.
RayetteYou never know. You never know anymore.
MikeThere's some guy at the podcast of somebody, and he'll go literally into where all like the gays and trannies are in their in a barge or pride thing ever, and he will basically come in and say, I'm black Superman. Like, you're not black. Well, that's my fantasy. What are you here? Which fantasy do you hear for? And he he records all this, and he got he pisses him off.
Jeffy McJeffersonI would piss him off.
MikeYeah. It's like, wait a minute, what why am I if I'm not, what are you? What the you can't throw common sense into that. It just wouldn't work.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. Yeah. It's kind of crazy, man. Let's see. Oh, meltdowns a lot. Now meltdowns used a lot. Oh, you had a meltdown. You know. Oh, look at this guy. He's having a meltdown. Just a puddle of flesh. I don't really mind that one.
MikeIt's a bit it explains what they're going through. It's a great edge.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. Yeah, I had a meltdown. God, that fucker melted down like three fucking mile island. That's a bit meltdown. That has to be where it came from. Maybe.
unknownMaybe.
Jeffy McJeffersonI'm not sure that they correlated that, but that's how I did it. So that works. Take that fucker's.
MikeHey, here's one thing that I'm getting tired of because I'm wondering what's the next letter in the G B T Q L Q. What's I what's the next letter? Eventually, they're gonna steal the entire alphabet.
Jeffy McJeffersonI don't know, man.
MikeI mean, the leprechauns used to own the rainbow. They took that away. Did they own the rainbow? Now they're taking our alphabet. I mean, come on.
Jeffy McJeffersonWe don't well, yeah. I mean, that is kind of freaking weird. You know. But I get I don't really that doesn't really all the letters, it doesn't bother me. It's there, it's it's getting longer though. It used to be LBT. Well, they put plus at the end, so they don't have to worry about any more letters. Oh, plus, etc. etc. They put plus at the end, so then that I think they're done.
RayetteThey're covered, I guess.
Jeffy McJeffersonPlus.
MikeYeah. So plus means eventually heterosexual white male will be included. Yeah.
RayetteSo we get all those bennies too?
MikeYeah. There you go.
RayetteAll right. I mean, how about when you ask someone how they're doing and they're like, Living the dream.
MikeDude. It turns out a nightmare and a dream are very similar.
Jeffy McJeffersonThey are.
MikeThey do see that.
Jeffy McJeffersonThey occur at the same time. Living the dream. I'm glad you brought that up because that is that is an irritating sign.
RayetteThat's another one. Like, it's going.
Jeffy McJeffersonIt's going.
RayetteLiving the dream. Yeah.
MikeAnd normally when it says live in the dream, they're being it sarcastically. They're not like, I am so goddamn happy. No. I don't just try to avoid what I'm dealing with today. But to say, oh, that sucks.
Jeffy McJeffersonDumbass. We don't need to live in the dream. Okay. Well, what's a dream? Dumb shit. I don't know. And then then somebody on the beach in Hawaii and you ask that.
MikeI get that.
RayetteMine is winning the lottery and living on a beach.
MikeYeah.
RayetteLike, okay.
MikeIf you answer me on the beach in Hawaii with that, I'm gonna like good call.
RayetteYeah. If you answer me at the office, that I get to go to work 10 hours a day and you know to make ends meet and blah, blah, blah.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. Living the dream, motherfucker. Are you fucking kidding me? No thanks. Yeah. I I that one bothers me too, man. And and also, you know, I know that he didn't make this up, but every other Jeff Foxworthy and and cable guy guy saying and shit like that, they fucking bug me the shit. That one's worse. Oh god, he's that one's that one is probably of all those dumbass things that those fucking whatever they're called, comic deal that they do. What caller comedy? Yeah.
MikeRon White was the best one.
Jeffy McJeffersonWell, Ron White was good.
MikeHe was an offshoot, man, because he was. He was clean on those. You get him on a regular one. I golfed with him once. That fucker, I mean, he's he's uh he's a hoot.
Jeffy McJeffersonDude, I remember you telling that story. But I mean, I've seen him on his own. And he I mean, not live, but I've seen him on like a special one. Fucker's funny. Yeah, he's hilarious. Yeah, and these guys, you know, these other guys, I could just do without, man. I just could. You know, and and and gosh, get her done. Man, if I get her done. Oh man, I don't You might be a redneck. That was lost.
MikeYeah, that one too. You might be a redneck. But you know, it made them richer than us. So that catchphrase. Well, it did.
Jeffy McJeffersonI mean, I mean, good for them.
MikeI'm gonna start going with YOLO.
KristaNo.
Jeffy McJeffersonGo YOLO. Okay, lubricant. Lubricant. That's my new saying.
RayetteWe just had that a little conversation about that word.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. We did, because we were at like three minutes ago. I was here. Well, no, no, no, no. I mean, we were covered in the second. Yeah. Okay.
When Certain Words Cross A Line
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd Rick Jason's brother, he says he loves the word. And his chick loves the word. Cunt. Oh, gotcha. I was like, lubricant? No, the cunt part. Lubricant. No, but he's you know, using that word. And but he used it, he said he uses it in the joke. Oh, yeah, cunt, yeah. Something like that. But I was like, dude, I'll be honest with you, man. The only time I ever use that word is when I'm pissed. Yeah, that's somebody's fucked up. Yeah.
RayetteThey asked me if I liked it, and I said, absolutely.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat's something you use in the bedroom. I knew damn well you didn't like it. That's you know, I said, I don't think you know she didn't like it.
unknownNo.
Jeffy McJeffersonNormally it's it's your white.
MikeIt's a hard word. It's a harsh word. It's one of those up there.
KristaYeah.
MikeIt's up there with the N-word. There's the C word and N-word. Well, the N-word's probably worse. Well, only if you're a white guy. If you're a black guy, you can say it. Now the C word applies to any color.
Jeffy McJeffersonBut but the black guys don't use the hard ER at the end of it. Oh, it's uh, yeah. Yeah.
RayetteYeah, that's true.
Jeffy McJeffersonSo that's a big difference.
MikeEveryone on a podcast and we still don't say the word. No. No. No. No. You know what irritates me? It is an evil word, dude. Well, yeah. But I mean, the whole thing about racism is like if we want to get rid of racism, which I think we would if the media would just shut up, just say this happened between two Americans, two guys, to this. Why does it have to be a black guy or a white guy? Do they ever bring it up when it's an Asian guy? An Asian man and a white cop got into an altercation. No. Have you ever heard that? Oh. No. No. I mean, the whole way that the media reports everything, it just keeps promoting this racist thing about look at the black against the white. Just say two Americans. Does it have to be African American? No. How about you're an American? I don't if you're not from Africa. You were born in Detroit. What tie do you have to Africa?
Jeffy McJeffersonWell, I know a lot of, you know, a lot of black people, man, that don't like the African-American term. I bet. Well, just call me an American. Yeah.
MikeThat's how you get rid of racism. You quit identifying people as something other than a male American. Huh? There you go.
RayetteOh, I know one.
Jeffy McJeffersonUh oh.
RayetteYou you brought this one up yesterday. Chef's kiss.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh, yeah, chef kiss. Yeah, hello. Oh, the cuff.
RayetteOh, it was a chef's kiss.
Jeffy McJeffersonChef tasted it. Wonderful.
RayetteThat's up there with that doesn't suck.
MikeI like that saying. Do you like that saying? Well, it doesn't suck. Yeah. Sort of. That's a way of saying it's it's not bad, but it's not that good either.
RayetteOh, is that really what that means? That's why I that brings a whole new meaning to that word that's a good thing. Well, it doesn't suck.
Jeffy McJeffersonWhen it was great, I'd say, God, that was fantastic. Well, it doesn't suck.
RayetteHuh.
Jeffy McJeffersonWell, if I bought an adult toy that was supposed to suck and it didn't suck, I'd be pissed. Well, there you go. Well, it doesn't suck. I'd like to return to the symptom.
MikeYeah. You need lubricant. Lubricant. Yeah. Go with the water-based. You got one?
RayetteNo.
Jeffy McJeffersonOh, I thought you had one ready to cued up.
RayetteI was thinking of the word literally.
Jeffy McJeffersonMan, I use that a lot. I know.
RayetteI I think I find myself using it a little bit here and there too. Literally.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. Literally.
MikeBut I remember say it like literally. Literally. Remember Chad, the bartender there? Yeah. Used to always use the term 100%. 100%.
Jeffy McJeffersonRay It does too. That's 100%.
MikeHe'd come up, he'd say it like a maybe 99. Yeah. She's 100%. People have catchphrases they use all the time. Just like Jason uses snap.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat's another one that sucks, man. Oh, snap. Snap. What's snap? Oh, snap. Yeah. That one's like way old and way older. Yeah, that is old. But yeah, he does use all snap and and it doesn't suck. Yeah. He does that a lot. Yeah.
RayetteSo does that mean it's not very good either? That's what Mike said.
SPEAKER_06I wanted some clarification.
Jeffy McJeffersonIt does make it broad. Okay, well, it doesn't suck. We just went into the great guy. It mildly sucks, right? Mildly sucks. Not that good, but it still sucks. It's not great. It's a tweener. It can't not suck. It's a tweener. It can't not suck if it's even mildly suck. Well, I mean, there's different levels of suck.
MikeThere's different levels of suck. One's 20 bucks an hour, one's 40.
Jeffy McJeffersonI'll pay the extra.
MikeOkay. Yeah, I would upgrade. I like to upgrade on the suckers. And it's worth it. 100%.
Rayette$100.
Mike100%. Upgrades 100% worth it. $100? $100 make a holla.
RayetteJust saying.
MikeBut it would suck. Bring your own if it's a BY B R O L. This wouldn't work.
Jeffy McJeffersonBring your own lubricant. So what you know, if you if you if you had a one that offer you $20 and then one that offer you $100, you would think the $100 would be better. If they're offering me to do it. No, I'm just talking. I'm just saying. Okay. Just saying.
RayetteHow much is yours?
Jeffy McJeffersonJust saying. Just saying. There's the thing. Huh? Is yours a $20 or $100 an hour?
MikeNo. You got to think too. I mean, if if you're willing to ask $100, you're willing to ask $20. You're kind of a work and training ball.
Jeffy McJeffersonI just wonder though, you know, if you go up, I'm I'm gonna take the $100 because you would think that would be better than the $20. And then the $100 one didn't work out like you thought. You'd be like, man, I could have paid $20 for this buck.
RayetteWhat if the $20 one doesn't have teeth? Does that make it better?
MikeI'd probably pay the $20. No chance to get bit. Here's what I'd do. I mean, I'd go in there saying I'm gonna spend $100, but I think I'll get the $20 and have her do it five times. See? There you go. You get more bang for your buck. Right.
RayetteWhat if you don't get the bang out of the buck?
MikeWell, I mean and if and if the first one sucked, then yeah, okay, no way. If the 100 would suck, you're out of 100 bucks. Then do you go take your 20 is good, you get four more. Out of the four more.
RayetteBut if the 20 doesn't like if it sucks, and I don't mean in a good way.
MikeWell, you just take your 80 and then do you take your 80 and offer to the hundred? Yeah, you gotta how about you give me 80% of that 100? Yeah, you have to. You have to offer to the hundred. Just but skip the beginning part, make sure you get to the end part. Make sure I get the finish, but I don't care about the beginning part. So just fast forward about 20 bucks. Fast forward about 20 bucks. Right.
RayetteSkip the foreplay.
MikeYeah, I'm good with that. Yeah, just hey. Can we negotiate? You walked in with a plan. That's right. Can we negotiate this? Can I do you can I Jew you down?
KristaThere's another one.
MikeHey, how's this? Why is it nobody's 100% Jew? Everybody's Jewish. Why is that? Well, I wish I had an answer for that. They just don't want to admit it or what? It's like I'm Jewish-ish.
Jeffy McJeffersonI'm gonna use it. Next time I see my friend Jay, I'm gonna use that. Jay, are you Jewish? Yeah. You're not 100%. Jew, mother brother? What a percent are you? Yeah.
SPEAKER_06That's hilarious. I've never heard of that one.
MikeBut you know, drew you down. Oh, there you go. I know. That's a they're they're known for that.
RayetteThey are. Why?
MikeWell, it's the person who goes to a yard sale and something's marked for 50 cents. Like, would you take a quarter? Just take it for free because I don't want to argue with you. I'll pay you 50 cents to take that shit.
RayetteI like when people come to my sales and ask me that because I flat down tell them no. One guy asked me, he says, I had two dollars on a thing of like juice.
MikeA juice? You had Jews down there? Yeah. Jews. How many Jews? Oh, juice. My bad. I thought they were selling them now. Oh my god. He sells them for two bucks.
RayetteDon't try to do me down either.
MikeHe started at four.
RayetteBut he goes, You take a dollar? I said, No, I'll take two. He goes, No, you take a dollar. I said, Nope, you can set it down and go to Walmart and pay $4.97. He paid the two dollars.
Jeffy McJeffersonHis favorite Did he have a long nose? Jason's Jason's friend was up at car rides the other day, and she and Red kind of got mad at me for this, but they were talking about tattoos, you know, and how much they were and stuff like that. And I go, well, Germany used to give them away for free.
KristaFucking God. That's harsh. It's the fucking truth.
MikeYeah. Sure did. Yes. What do what do Michael Phelps and Adolf Hitler haven't or what's the difference between Michael Phelps and Adolf Hitler? Oh God. I don't know. Michael Phelps could finish a race. Oh no.
RayetteAnd on that.
MikeNo, but I had a patient come in, and he's a tattoo artist. And he's a big guy. And he's got cats all over. And he said something that just slayed me. How's that per term? That's good. I can live with that. But he's talking about, dude, because you know, I said, I've been up where I'm like 270, I'm down to 230. And he said, I just kind of bounced back and forth. I said, Well, man, hey, you're remaking yourself. That's good. You're trying to get back in shape. He goes, Well, the the the reformer or the prison system will do that to you. And I'm like, oh shit, sorry.
SPEAKER_05What? What?
MikeHe says, Yeah, when the food's not very good and you got nothing to do but work out, I tend to get in good shape.
RayetteOh my god.
MikeGood on you.
RayetteI was gonna ask for a recommendation for a tattoo, but I don't know.
MikeBut he said something else, which was kind of he married the same person twice.
KristaDidn't marry the first time.
MikeYeah, I said, What? He goes, actually saved me a lot of money. I'm like, how? And how he goes, because that's the first time I divorced her, the kids were with me 85% of the time, but I had to pay 2,400 bucks in child support. I remarried her. Then they only had to pay her a thousand bucks when I divorced her the second time. Like, brilliant. You thought this one through.
SPEAKER_05Oh my god.
MikeI like this guy. He's cool, but he says some shit off the cuff. You're like, wow, okay.
SPEAKER_05Huh.
MikeHe should be on this podcast. Yeah, you should.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
MikeYeah. Is he around here?
RayetteTell him bring his tattoo gun too.
KristaYeah.
MikeI asked him, he said, Do you do any of those? And he goes, He said, Have you done any of those? He goes, Yeah, the ones I did are most have been covered up by somebody who's good.
RayetteOkay, don't bring the tattoo gun.
MikeWell, because he did them when he was in the correction system.
RayetteI have enough bad tattoos.
MikeHe said, Now he's been doing it for nine years. You do it professionally, but he said I wasn't a professional when he did my first one.
RayetteOh, that makes sense.
MikeI just had some free time.
RayetteThat makes sense.
Rent Free Thoughts And “Die On That Hill”
Jeffy McJeffersonI did find a couple real quick. Yep.
RayetteOh, back on topic, I mean.
Jeffy McJeffersonWe strayed. Just for a second, then we'll stray again. Living rent-free in your head.
SPEAKER_05Oh, yeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonDude.
MikeHe's living rent-free in your head. In other words, you said something stupid that I can't seem to get rid of. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I charge rent. You're gonna buy me a beer for that shit you just gave me.
KristaThat's right.

SPEAKER_06You owe me a Dutch Rose, man.
Jeffy McJeffersonSon of a bitch. Party bum. Party bum. And living my best life. How many have you had? Sybil. Well, let's just live. You've said that before. Eh, she's living her best life. Like, eh.
RayetteI did about a certain person.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah.
RayetteRe kind of recently I said that.
Jeffy McJeffersonSaid that about your daughter who wants Shane's. Yes. Yeah. Is that who you're talking about?
RayetteYeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonOkay.
MikeSo if somebody's really sucking, you're like, God, she's living her worst life. Is there any way out of that, or do you only have one?
RayetteI mean, good.
MikeYou mean it's like stay in your lane, bro?
Jeffy McJeffersonStay in your lane's another one. Dude, stay in your lane's another one.
MikeKnow your role.
SPEAKER_06Just keep Mike Mike talking. We'll pull him out.
MikeWe're pulling out. So in other words, all I do is pretty much say stupid comments that nobody likes. Yeah. Start to figure this out.
RayetteWe just needed you here for a reason.
Jeffy McJeffersonI just needed a little lubricant. I'm getting there. 47 minutes in, we got this. We got him. He's hooked. Tell me, tell me you whatever without telling me whatever. You know, because I like to say, oh, tell me you're an idiot without telling me you're an idiot. That's a lot of people like do. I mean, I'm just using idiots.
RayetteThey'll say like stuff like that. They'll input whatever word in there. Yeah.
MikeKind of dumb. It it's well, here's a funny thing. One of the caretakers for Karen, when she's telling me something, and some some people have this habit. Almost every third word out of her mouth is whatever. Well, whatever she and we did this and that and whatever, and then we came over and whatever. And I'm like, I start counting. And now I'm talking bit to know her pretty well. Sometimes after a sentence, I'll be like, five. You just said whatever five times in that sentence.
RayetteOr like.
MikeLike oh, you like?
RayetteLike is another one that you're doing. Every third word is like like.
Jeffy McJeffersonGuilty of that sometimes when I'm trying to think of something. I'm like, I like, like, like, like, like. Or you know. You know, too. I'm guilty of that too.
MikeYeah. But whatever is like, what does whatever have to do with anything you're telling me? One thing, and I I say this a lot.
Jeffy McJeffersonI say this a lot. Yeah. Like, I'll die on that hill. Are you going to die on that hill or die on that hill?
SPEAKER_05I'll die on that hill.
MikeWell, it means you're you're committed. I say that. I mean that to me it's like You do say that sometimes.
RayetteI do.
MikeI say that. But you didn't come back and say, would you really? You're going to die on the hill? It's a good thing to say, but are you really going to do it? Yeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonYou know, I'll I'll do it, you know, if you're not going to be able to die on the hill, I think about the middle.
RayetteLike if you're arguing with somebody and that's their final say and you're like, Yeah, or they say something.
Jeffy McJeffersonI told Jason that one time, man. I was like, he was saying something about things, something he wanted to do. I go, dude, you're really gonna die on that hill? Yeah, okay.
SPEAKER_05Doesn't suck.
Jeffy McJeffersonDoesn't suck. Whatever. Yeah. Yeah. He's notorious for that.
MikeBut when I see die on the hill, I just think of like that statue of Iwo Jima when the military's got the flag and plug. That's uh if you're gonna say you're gonna die on the hill, then by God be committed to it. That's where it come from. It's just you can't use that lightly.
Jeffy McJeffersonNo, but they do. Oh, and there you I'll tell you one that pisses Rick off. Mo Ricker, the Ricker hates this more than anything, is that people who have never been in the service saying they have PTSD.
RayetteOh, yeah, that ticks him off.
Jeffy McJeffersonThat means they've been married. I wish he was here right now.
RayetteThat means they've been married.
Jeffy McJeffersonDude, he he would go on for the rest of the show about that. It freaking drives him nuts. I mean, but they're but there's people that do that all the time. Well, there's a lot of yeah.
MikeThink of the guys came back to Vietnam. I mean, you went over there, the shit they saw was uh unbelievable. And they came back here and then you got people protesting, calling baby killers. I mean, they they didn't go over there because they wanted to.
Jeffy McJeffersonI mean, they should have like they're in the service. Yeah, yeah, you know.
MikeBut that was a that was kind of a that was a strange time. But to come back and not be celebrated for hey, thank you for your service.
Jeffy McJeffersonBecause there's a girl that used to come to cart rides that we all know, and don't come there anymore, that always said that she had PTSD, and it drove Rick or fucking bonkers. Like, you don't fucking have PTSD.
KristaYeah.
MikeSome people's tolerance, some people's tolerance to stress.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah.
Fake Service Dogs In Public Spaces
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd this is not related to that or anything, or even to the show, but or the topic, but that's weird. Fake service dogs.
MikeHow about service parrots or service this? I mean, we're at the top of the fucking food chain. If you need a parrot to get through your day, you got some issues.
Jeffy McJeffersonI'm talking about the fake service dogs. I mean, yeah, the fake fucking service dog to bring their shit in a restaurant or a or a grocery store. Well, I see people bringing fucking dogs, and even if they don't even have service dog shit on them, and they bring them to the growler bar. Mm-hmm. Just brought a dog into the grocery store. It drives me fucking bats, dude.
MikeYou know? It's like, dude, come find a friend, rent a friend. I don't care. But can't you bring a dog into a here?
Jeffy McJeffersonYou're you're not okay. Number one, if you're not drinking at the d at the growler bar at the grow we clarify this, we our grail bar is at a grocery store. Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
MikeWe used to hang out bars when you're young. Now we hang out at a grocery store.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. Now we could it's cool though. Now when we close the bar down, it's at eight o'clock at night. So we close it down, obviously. Yeah, we close the bar down, it's eight o'clock. But you know But in December that seems late. It's dark. It does.
MikeYeah. Not so much in July.
Jeffy McJeffersonI know. True. So light outside. But yeah, and then they'll come and and they're shopping and they have a fucking dog. Okay. Your dog can stay at home while you shop.
unknownYeah.
MikePretty sure. Those are people you don't go up and ask to out.
Jeffy McJeffersonBut these numb nuts, and that's an old saying, but I I wanted to use an old saying. These numbnuts. Num nuts.
RayetteNumb nuts.
MikeAnd where's the meaning of that? Are your nuts numb and does that cause this feeling you have? If my nuts are numb, I probably do stupid things too.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, well.
MikeMaybe that's where it came from.
Jeffy McJeffersonMy nuts aren't numb because if they even get brushed up on, man, I'm on the floor crying. Need more lubricant. I need more lubricant. Yeah, don't get me started on that. But not lubricant, but but the nuts. No, but I mean, seriously though, these these dumb asses that do that, this just irritate the fan.
MikeFaking it is to it. Now I get it.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd now I think I think Raya was like looking and and at signs now in stores and shit like that, especially around here. And I think people are like, or store owners, you know, stores are going like Game Axe.
RayetteTrader Joe's has a big sign out front now that says service dogs only. Like no emotional support or something like that. It says, because technically you don't have to allow an emotional support. It is service dogs only. An emotional support dog or animal doesn't qualify as a service animal. And you know it's actually two separate things.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd you could tell them apart by if they're if they're fake service dogs or real service dogs. Because, you know, if you go, hey, I wish I could pet them. No, no, you know, and shit like that. You can't pet, you can't pet a real service dog. But they'll go, oh no, go ahead and pet the fucker.
MikeOkay, well then that's not a real fucking real service dogs are amazing how they help people. I mean, something like that, that's outstanding. Don't get me wrong. They can sense when somebody needs their medications or if they sense in a seizure.
RayetteYeah.
MikeBut yeah, just if you say, Oh, I like my dog, I'm gonna take him with me, that's not okay.
Jeffy McJeffersonAnd then you get a fake service dog vest off Amazon or something.
MikeBut I don't see ever see a parrot or an iguana or a these things. They don't sense seizures. I when I I've had a one of my patients who's a stewardess, try to say somebody wanted to bring their parrot on the plane because it was a service animal. I'm like, really?
Jeffy McJeffersonDid they really? Yeah.
MikeThey tried to pull it off.
Jeffy McJeffersonI'm like, shit.
MikeYou would be fun to hang out with.
Jeffy McJeffersonRock! She's having a seizure. Rock! Rock! I don't know. Is that how that goes? I don't know. Pelly have an epilepsy.
RayetteYeah, but if you if you had a business and you only wanted to allow service dogs or service animals, you could stop anybody that says emotional support at the door, and you do not have to let them in. I didn't know there's a distinction, but they're not they are not trained to be a service animal. They're not part of the ADA.
MikeWell, the human was not trained to be a normal adult either. So there's sometimes that is true. The dog and the human both need some training. That's the way I look at it.
RayetteBut yeah, emotional support is not part of the ADA.
KristaOkay. All right. I'm closing on that.
MikeFuck fake circus dog. I can say if you need an emotional support dog, you should have been at the back of the pack getting picked off. But you have now been moved to the front of the line.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. If you can't if you have to bring your dog to a fucking grocery store, I'm sure it'd be okay for a little bit at your house, by the way, dicks. Okay. You don't have to fucking bring him to a goddamn grocery store or restaurant. Well, okay. Restaurant that has outside seating, I can I can fine.
RayetteWhatever. That's what it's for.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. As long as the dog's well behaved. The dog's gonna say bark, bark, bark, bark.
RayetteI agree. Yeah, yeah.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah. But no fucking, you know, don't don't bring the sons of bitches around. And I love don't okay. I love dogs. Okay, don't get me wrong, man. I fucking love dogs.
unknownYou know.
MikeI don't think it really qualifies a dog for it's over 50 pounds though. Those little bitty.
Jeffy McJeffersonYeah, a little terrier. He was a bad dog. This is just real dog food. And we only took him to like Petco and pet stores and places like Yeah, where he could shit all over the floor and we have to clean it up.
RayetteAnd they have stations for that.
