Salty Bite: Welcome to Bummerville. Population: You
Is online dating just way too much fun? When you're looking for someone to date, do you prefer profiles that are a super huge bummer? Do you want to feel extra sad every time you open Tinder? If so, this episode is for you! Join Claire and Mel as they review some some of the most tasteless profiles out there.
1
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,320
Welcome back everybody.
We are here coming at you with
2
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,320
another salty bite.
I'm Mel and I'm Claire, and
3
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,240
together we are.
The salty hoes.
4
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:37,160
All right, so we are returning
with some more profiles to talk
5
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:40,560
about some kind of amazing finds
that we've had on the dating
6
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,080
apps.
They keep coming.
7
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,640
There's no shortage.
They keep coming and we've done
8
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,680
a lot of these and that people
can't believe some of them.
9
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,040
We keep getting texts and
messages, you know, saying not
10
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,000
that I don't believe you, but
kind of I don't believe you.
11
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,680
Yes, and and I would also say
that we're strengthening
12
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,680
marriages and unions everywhere
because I think for our couple
13
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,560
friends, they're like, Oh my
God, thank God, I'm not out
14
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:03,320
there.
Right.
15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,640
That's that's wild.
So we need to reassure you that
16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,360
everything we've talked about,
all of these profiles, they're
17
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,760
100% real.
Yes, we're not exaggerating
18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,040
anything.
No, we have the proof, the
19
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,640
receipts, the timelines, the
screenshots, you know, we just
20
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,640
don't want to like out anyone.
So we're not like really putting
21
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,520
them out there, but I guarantee
you we're exaggerating nothing.
22
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,440
I.
Wish that we were, because I
23
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:32,000
feel despondent and so let my
despondency be, you know, a
24
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,760
reflection of the validity.
Yes, absolutely.
25
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,520
I have a little story to share,
if that's OK, before we get
26
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,200
started, yes, this is about my
my son.
27
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,640
Alright, So he's hilarious as
you know.
28
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,800
He is so funny and such a good
conversationalist.
29
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,520
Yeah, he's great.
So during Covad, remember that.
30
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,680
That one.
Time right when we were all
31
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,960
locked down for all that time.
So I introduced my son to the
32
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,320
classic video game Halo.
Have you ever played that?
33
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,560
I have not played it, but I know
of it because my son played.
34
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,440
Halo.
OK, Yeah, so it's pretty famous.
35
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,640
If anyone has been living under
a rock for the last 25 years and
36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,160
isn't aware of Halo, it's this
first person shooter video game
37
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,280
in which you play a Cyborg
marine called Master Chief and
38
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,720
you're battling an alien
civilization called the
39
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,120
Covenant.
And it sounds religious.
40
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,280
Right.
It's almost like Mormon.
41
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,480
Yeah.
Well, it is so.
42
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,760
The Covenant is the civilization
made out of various species, and
43
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,880
it's a religion, just
civilization.
44
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,120
And kind of the conceit of the
game is that they're trying to
45
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,920
activate a super weapon that's
gonna destroy all life in the
46
00:02:30,920 --> 00:02:32,240
Galaxy.
Whoa.
47
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,160
Because they think it's a holy
relic that is going to start a
48
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,920
religious event called the Great
Journey.
49
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,760
Oh my God.
I know it reminds me of
50
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,200
Mormonism, right?
Yeah, like I feel a little free
51
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,000
and like I did often at Mormon
church.
52
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,480
Yeah, so in the game you're like
this marine trying to stop them.
53
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,800
And so my son and I, we played
this a lot during COVID and we
54
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,560
quote it constantly, like
including some of the chapter
55
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,040
names in the game because
they're really funny.
56
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,760
So some of our favorites are
called Forward Unto Dawn.
57
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,080
We say that all the time,
especially when we don't wanna
58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,800
go somewhere.
We're like Forward Unto Dawn.
59
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,080
That's I know.
Really.
60
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,400
I imagine that in the school run
or something.
61
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,560
Yeah, exactly.
Flawless Cowboy is another one.
62
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,200
Another one we say all the time
is.
63
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,800
But I don't want to ride the
elevator.
64
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,360
Let's see nothing but Jackal and
warning hitchhikers.
65
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,360
Maybe escape convicts.
All right.
66
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,640
But the scene I want to talk
about today, there's this one
67
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:26,360
scene where a character called
Sergeant Johnson delivers a tank
68
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,280
to you.
OK Sergeant Johnson is this
69
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,360
badass Black Marine that smokes
cigars.
70
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,000
He's my favorite character in
the game.
71
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,280
Yeah.
So he drops off a tank and the
72
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,960
artificial intelligence named
Cortana.
73
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,600
OK.
So she lives in Master Chief's
74
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:40,320
head.
Yeah.
75
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:41,800
She goes.
Thanks for the tank.
76
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,120
He never gets me anything.
And then Sergeant Johnson says,
77
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,320
oh, I know what the ladies like.
Oh so.
78
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,240
Sergeant Johnson, I know.
Where are you?
79
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,000
And then the name of the next
chapter is, depending on your
80
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,680
level, either ladies like armor
plating or ladies like superior
81
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,000
firepower.
So I know I think it's funny as
82
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,320
shit, but anyway, lately, here's
the tie in.
83
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,560
Whenever I show my son one of
these profiles that we review,
84
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,440
he goes, oh I know what the
ladies like.
85
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,560
Oh my God.
I.
86
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,079
Love it, Isn't that great?
He is just a wee jam.
87
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,000
He's a wee jam.
And the wit he has his mother's
88
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,960
wit.
So I think about that every time
89
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,240
I come across a profile that's
particularly interesting or
90
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,080
ridiculous or angry.
Yeah.
91
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,400
But the profiles I think I want
to talk about today are the ones
92
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,440
that are just like, a super big
bummer.
93
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,840
Like, yes, incongruously, a big
bummer.
94
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:44,600
Like the antithesis to trying to
get somebody to feel hot and
95
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,840
bothered.
Right.
96
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:49,000
Like, oh hey, I feel sexy and I
want to date this person.
97
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,640
And I was thinking about that
this week because I had not one,
98
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,400
not 2, but three different
profiles that featured a picture
99
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,720
of this person in a cemetery.
What?
100
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:03,560
Yeah, like like posing by a a
gravestone.
101
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,680
Did did you get a feel for who
maybe it Was it a random
102
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,080
gravestone?
Or well, a couple of them, I
103
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,120
feel like we're maybe family
members that, you know, possibly
104
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,520
were older that had passed.
It was a little hard to tell.
105
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,680
But really, sadly, one of them
looks like this is a person's
106
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,200
child.
Oh my God.
107
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,600
I know that is.
Like awful.
108
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,200
It's horrible.
The worst, right?
109
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,000
Heartbreaking.
The worst but dating profile
110
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,840
question mark.
I mean, it's, it's an
111
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:34,440
interesting choice for Tinder,
yes.
112
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,760
It does.
It doesn't scream Tinder to me.
113
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,080
No.
That's like on so many levels.
114
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,120
It's very sad.
I mean, it's it's heartbreaking.
115
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,280
This is the worst thing I could
imagine.
116
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:50,240
Of course, yeah.
But Tinder right, I don't it
117
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:53,440
yeah I I'm kind of lost for
words I.
118
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,520
I know.
Yeah, the idea of a selfie,
119
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,840
yeah, I just don't get that on
so many.
120
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:03,240
Levels, I know, so it made me
feel really, really sad for this
121
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,600
man, but it it didn't make me
want to swipe on this profile.
122
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,320
Yeah, well, and the cynical part
of me, it's like, yeah.
123
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,480
Why are you using that in the
dating profile and?
124
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,120
I I admit my defensiveness and
cynical nature when it comes to
125
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,240
dating.
Like you shouldn't diet those
126
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,760
things, but it's just like what?
What feeling are you trying to
127
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:28,400
elicit by sharing I you know.
Yeah, sympathy, I think, yeah.
128
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,800
And obviously this would be a
really important part of of you,
129
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,400
of course, had that happen.
But maybe it's not something to
130
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,920
lead with.
No on Tinder before you've met
131
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,800
someone.
I, I I would stand in agreement
132
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:44,360
with that.
It seems too serious and it's,
133
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,320
yes, you know, almost
trivializing it to put it on
134
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,560
Tinder like that.
Well then I just also.
135
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,440
I wonder how often that works.
I don't know.
136
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:57,920
Like, would you feel impressed
to swipe upon a man in a
137
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,640
cemetery?
Never, Yeah.
138
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,640
I don't, I don't think that that
would would get me going, no.
139
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,000
Do you have anything similar?
You know, I have noticed and
140
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,760
maybe it's our time of life.
Where are you saying we're old?
141
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,520
I'm just saying that at this
stage, we're more likely to be,
142
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,520
say, caring for an ailing
parent.
143
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,840
Yes, that's true.
Something along those lines.
144
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:26,400
Right, it's happening.
Again, universal experience,
145
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,360
something we you can connect
with people.
146
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,840
This is a rough time of life,
you know.
147
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,320
Jewel caregiver to kids and
aging parents.
148
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,800
Yeah, definitely.
And also maybe don't put a
149
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:42,520
picture with your ailing
relative in a hospital bed with
150
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,160
tubes coming out of them selfie
on your dating profile.
151
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,520
What?
No.
152
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,920
Like I have seen multiple and
this week where you are like
153
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,120
taking a selfie.
And again, I know everybody
154
00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:01,200
deals with stuff differently,
but like I don't, I don't know
155
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,400
that AI would want to take a
selfie in that circumstance.
156
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,840
And #2 that I would share it
publicly.
157
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:11,200
Like maybe you want it for your
own self, but again, like on
158
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,840
Instagram or a dating profile or
so I just, I don't know, that
159
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,720
just doesn't seem.
OK, so back up so.
160
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,800
You're like I need to have.
A selfie?
161
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,640
Yes, in front of someone
potentially in the ICU if tubes
162
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,880
are coming out.
I mean, they are connected up to
163
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,800
machinery.
OK?
164
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,600
So they look conscious most of
the time.
165
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,440
Like, yeah, I know.
Are these people smiling in the
166
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,919
selfie?
Well, I mean some of them have
167
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:39,480
tubes, so like.
No, no, I mean, I mean the man
168
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,799
taking a picture, is he, is he
smiling like, Oh my God.
169
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:47,240
They're just like, hey, and and
again, maybe they're trying to
170
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,320
elicit like the compassionate
view is they're like I am a.
171
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,880
Caregiver.
Well, maybe it's a selfie they
172
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,880
took to send to a relative or
something like that, but then
173
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,960
they're like, hey, you know
where else this girl?
174
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,040
Oh my God, no pun intended.
Oh man.
175
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,560
Yeah, like I just, I again, I
don't know, like there's a
176
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:11,160
limited number of spots.
We choose these pictures very
177
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,160
carefully and here they are with
their ailing like and the the
178
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,640
people they're taking a selfie,
but they never look in good.
179
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,200
Health.
Well, not if they're in the.
180
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,360
Hospital with tubes and shit.
Yes, I don't like that at all.
181
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:25,600
I.
Don't like that either, it makes
182
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,240
me like sad.
OK, you know what man, if you're
183
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,760
listening and you need some
advice on how what pictures to
184
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,280
include on your dating profile,
please go back, back and listen
185
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,720
to our Men and their Dead Fish
episode.
186
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,840
We cover that we do and I feel
like you could maybe get some
187
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,280
pointers.
Yes, because there are other
188
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,480
pictures you could include and
like you say, 2nd, 3rd, 4th
189
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,200
theat.
Well, sure, then we share our
190
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,160
stories.
Right.
191
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,600
I mean in person when you're
talking like here's the thing
192
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,560
that's going on in my life or
that happened that was important
193
00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:58,560
to me exactly.
It's not that you can't share
194
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:01,600
that it's just before you've met
someone on Tinder.
195
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:02,520
It's.
Like a lot.
196
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,880
That's a lot.
Well, and also just again,
197
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,440
limited species, like we don't
need to know your life story
198
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:08,480
here.
We're seeing if there's a
199
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,920
connection.
Yeah, that's right.
200
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,520
If we want to go on a date.
And if I see cemeteries or tubes
201
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,320
and ailing relatives, because
I'm not, I don't feel like you
202
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,280
wanna go.
On a date, yeah.
203
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,360
You know that little who that is
so apparently rare.
204
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,560
Yeah days but yeah well you know
what else doesn't turn me on
205
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:29,120
well let me tell you about this
this profile I came across and
206
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,440
actually we have both seen this
this person before on the dating
207
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,920
apps OK so I'm gonna call him
Sean yes that is not his name
208
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,080
but and we.
Protect the innocent, yes.
209
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,640
That's right.
This Sean is notable because I
210
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,640
think he is very good looking.
Would you agree?
211
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:43,800
I would agree.
Yeah.
212
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,720
The reason he does stand out in
the quagmire?
213
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,800
Yeah, yes, yes, he's, he's very
good looking.
214
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,680
Yes.
The reason neither of us have
215
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,960
swiped on him before is that
Sean used to have a picture with
216
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,800
his finger all the way up his
nose like.
217
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360
Far up his nose.
Yeah, yeah.
218
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,880
Yeah, like an excavation.
And it give us a little bit of
219
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:02,400
an.
Yeah.
220
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,120
So neither of us, we have shared
with each other that you know
221
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,080
this picture before several
times, but neither of us have
222
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,920
ever swiped.
Well, you'll be happy to know
223
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,000
that Sean has removed his nose
picking picture that is.
224
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,880
Good, maybe he did get some
feedback.
225
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,480
Maybe, yeah, but I would argue
that the picture he replaced it
226
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,160
with is even worse.
Oh my God.
227
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,760
What is he doing in this?
What's he excavating?
228
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,960
Well, the excavation actually
does come into it.
229
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,040
Oh God.
Because he's on a theme of
230
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,760
nothing.
Else well, you know how a lot of
231
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,640
people like to include travel
pictures.
232
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,360
Yeah.
And and I think these are good
233
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,120
as long as you don't go too
crazy and over worse, right.
234
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,600
Right.
Oh, I like to travel.
235
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,360
I get out there.
I'm not, you know.
236
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,760
Yes, just.
Stuck in the US, right?
237
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,440
I have a broader OR horizon.
Yes, I like it OK, but I don't
238
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,360
really like this picture because
it is a picture of Sean.
239
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,520
Yeah, popping out gleefully like
a jack-in-the-box from the Viet
240
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,040
Cong tunnels.
OK, that's wow.
241
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,800
That's a choice.
That is a very definite choice
242
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,040
on so many levels.
And also, why are these a
243
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,680
tourist attraction?
Well, I mean, I it's a tourist
244
00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:14,200
attraction, I guess, because,
you know, you can make money.
245
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,800
And I actually don't really have
a problem with people visiting
246
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,240
it, right?
Like, this is a really dark
247
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,000
period of history.
Really dark.
248
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,840
But bopping out with a smile on
your face for your dating
249
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,480
profile is is another thing ta
da we.
250
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,200
Like, I don't like it.
I think it's a poor.
251
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:35,000
Taste death and destruction.
Yay yay. 100% on board with you.
252
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,960
Like all for Memorialize me, I
can't say.
253
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,040
Memorialize.
Thank you sights and stuff.
254
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,200
I think my tongue is too big for
my mouth.
255
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,520
Sidebar.
Anyway, thank you for filling in
256
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,080
the words.
Yes, but again, dating profile
257
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,880
and also there's exuberance.
Would you say is that fair?
258
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,920
In this picture?
There's exuberance.
259
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,920
That's the thing that I don't
like.
260
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,520
And I, again, I don't have a
problem visiting these things.
261
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,840
Of course, for example, a couple
of years ago my son and I went
262
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,800
to Hiroshima and went to the
museum and saw, you know, where
263
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,600
the United States dropped an
atomic bomb on a civilian city,
264
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,280
right?
And the impact of being there is
265
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,000
actually a lot being in the
actual site, of course.
266
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,840
So I think that was an important
visit.
267
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,120
Okay, that my son and I.
With your kid, sure.
268
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,760
However, lessons learned.
However, I would not, however,
269
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,440
take a selfie in front of
Hiroshima and then put it on
270
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,480
Tinder.
Be kind of be poor taste.
271
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,160
Extremely poor taste.
Yeah, and they would not endear
272
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,080
me to swipe no, even though
you're a queen.
273
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,120
I would be like.
Thank you, but it's a little
274
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,800
weird.
Yeah, insensitive maybe.
275
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,960
Extremely.
Yeah, Yeah.
276
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,440
Wow.
So that's fun.
277
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,680
That's super fun.
Well, we're coming close to the
278
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:50,680
end.
Do you have anything else to
279
00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:54,440
share with me?
Well, Speaking of pictures of in
280
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:59,560
inappropriate memorials to
tragic events in the world, I I
281
00:13:59,560 --> 00:14:03,520
saw another sort of breathtaking
photo choice.
282
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,480
This week, some of these do take
your breath in a bad.
283
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,960
Way and not for that.
Like the weak at the knees
284
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,400
reasons, but the not.
In a sex.
285
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,880
Dear Jesus, the audacity or like
what were you thinking?
286
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:19,760
So this guy did, he defines
himself as a nice guy.
287
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:25,760
So just to share a little bit of
of the bio, he says a kind man,
288
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,320
not a nice guy.
So, you know, that's like some
289
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:34,360
mental gymnastics there.
If kindness is sexy to you, then
290
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,960
I'm Brad Pitt.
I'll make your heart sing.
291
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:44,000
Period.
Unique period JA adore period.
292
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,000
I'm already.
Grossed out?
293
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,240
Yeah, my friend.
Just terrible.
294
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,520
Sorry for the pronunciation
there.
295
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:48,920
That's better than mine.
Yeah.
296
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,320
So.
So yeah, he does confess he does
297
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,560
have an average IQ.
Oh Oh no, I read that wrong.
298
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,520
He's he did an arrow.
He is above average.
299
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Of course he is.
And then so this is interesting
300
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,080
because he did 1 arrow, you
know, above average IQ, but then
301
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:13,320
five arrows EQ.
So he's really got the high
302
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,600
emotional, OK.
So the emotional intelligence is
303
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,200
off the freaking chart strong
with this one.
304
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:21,560
Off the charts.
OK.
305
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,280
All right.
Self-described, yes.
306
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,640
So just before I reveal what
this picture is, he did say I
307
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,920
feel my emotions deeply and this
is probably true when you
308
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:35,640
consider then that his profile
picture was of Ice Fitch.
309
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:36,840
Ice Fitch?
I can't say.
310
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,680
That right, Auschwitz.
Yes.
311
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,240
Are you shitting me right now?
That was his profile picture
312
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,000
with.
Auschwitz, the concentration.
313
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,920
Camp in Poland, yes, with A tag.
A favorite memory of mine.
314
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,240
Oh, no.
Oh my God, yes, Claire.
315
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,760
I know.
Oh, put a fork in me, I'm done.
316
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,600
Yeah.
But he is plant beast, so it's
317
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:00,280
all OK.
Oh.
318
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,200
My God, like Auschwitz.
Yes.
319
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,040
What?
Yes.
320
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,120
No.
So yet, I mean, at least it
321
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,800
wasn't a selfie question mark.
It was just of the please, I'm.
322
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,960
Going to cry?
Yeah, I know.
323
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,320
This is at the point where we're
like, there's no hope.
324
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,680
Auschwitz.
Yeah, Yep, yeah.
325
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,000
So there we have it, my friends.
I'm speechless.
326
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:33,040
Yeah, stay married.
But you know what my son would
327
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,400
say?
Oh, I know what the lady is
328
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,720
like.
That's.
329
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,200
The picture that's.
Going to get me laid.
330
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,720
Wow.
Yeah, All right, friends.
331
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,920
Well, on that note, on that
note, I I I don't see where we
332
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,360
go from there.
So we're done.
333
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,280
We are done.
Enjoy the rest of your week.
334
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,680
We'll be back at you next time.
We're going to cry now, OK?
335
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:52,720
Bye bye.
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,320
Welcome back everybody.
We are here coming at you with
2
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,320
another salty bite.
I'm Mel and I'm Claire, and
3
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,240
together we are.
The salty hoes.
4
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:37,160
All right, so we are returning
with some more profiles to talk
5
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:40,560
about some kind of amazing finds
that we've had on the dating
6
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,080
apps.
They keep coming.
7
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,640
There's no shortage.
They keep coming and we've done
8
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,680
a lot of these and that people
can't believe some of them.
9
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,040
We keep getting texts and
messages, you know, saying not
10
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,000
that I don't believe you, but
kind of I don't believe you.
11
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,680
Yes, and and I would also say
that we're strengthening
12
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,680
marriages and unions everywhere
because I think for our couple
13
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,560
friends, they're like, Oh my
God, thank God, I'm not out
14
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:03,320
there.
Right.
15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,640
That's that's wild.
So we need to reassure you that
16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,360
everything we've talked about,
all of these profiles, they're
17
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,760
100% real.
Yes, we're not exaggerating
18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,040
anything.
No, we have the proof, the
19
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,640
receipts, the timelines, the
screenshots, you know, we just
20
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,640
don't want to like out anyone.
So we're not like really putting
21
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,520
them out there, but I guarantee
you we're exaggerating nothing.
22
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,440
I.
Wish that we were, because I
23
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:32,000
feel despondent and so let my
despondency be, you know, a
24
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,760
reflection of the validity.
Yes, absolutely.
25
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,520
I have a little story to share,
if that's OK, before we get
26
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,200
started, yes, this is about my
my son.
27
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,640
Alright, So he's hilarious as
you know.
28
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,800
He is so funny and such a good
conversationalist.
29
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,520
Yeah, he's great.
So during Covad, remember that.
30
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,680
That one.
Time right when we were all
31
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,960
locked down for all that time.
So I introduced my son to the
32
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,320
classic video game Halo.
Have you ever played that?
33
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,560
I have not played it, but I know
of it because my son played.
34
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,440
Halo.
OK, Yeah, so it's pretty famous.
35
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,640
If anyone has been living under
a rock for the last 25 years and
36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,160
isn't aware of Halo, it's this
first person shooter video game
37
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,280
in which you play a Cyborg
marine called Master Chief and
38
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,720
you're battling an alien
civilization called the
39
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,120
Covenant.
And it sounds religious.
40
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,280
Right.
It's almost like Mormon.
41
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,480
Yeah.
Well, it is so.
42
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,760
The Covenant is the civilization
made out of various species, and
43
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,880
it's a religion, just
civilization.
44
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,120
And kind of the conceit of the
game is that they're trying to
45
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,920
activate a super weapon that's
gonna destroy all life in the
46
00:02:30,920 --> 00:02:32,240
Galaxy.
Whoa.
47
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,160
Because they think it's a holy
relic that is going to start a
48
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,920
religious event called the Great
Journey.
49
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,760
Oh my God.
I know it reminds me of
50
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,200
Mormonism, right?
Yeah, like I feel a little free
51
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,000
and like I did often at Mormon
church.
52
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,480
Yeah, so in the game you're like
this marine trying to stop them.
53
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,800
And so my son and I, we played
this a lot during COVID and we
54
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,560
quote it constantly, like
including some of the chapter
55
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,040
names in the game because
they're really funny.
56
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,760
So some of our favorites are
called Forward Unto Dawn.
57
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,080
We say that all the time,
especially when we don't wanna
58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,800
go somewhere.
We're like Forward Unto Dawn.
59
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,080
That's I know.
Really.
60
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,400
I imagine that in the school run
or something.
61
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,560
Yeah, exactly.
Flawless Cowboy is another one.
62
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,200
Another one we say all the time
is.
63
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,800
But I don't want to ride the
elevator.
64
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,360
Let's see nothing but Jackal and
warning hitchhikers.
65
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,360
Maybe escape convicts.
All right.
66
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,640
But the scene I want to talk
about today, there's this one
67
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:26,360
scene where a character called
Sergeant Johnson delivers a tank
68
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,280
to you.
OK Sergeant Johnson is this
69
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,360
badass Black Marine that smokes
cigars.
70
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,000
He's my favorite character in
the game.
71
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,280
Yeah.
So he drops off a tank and the
72
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,960
artificial intelligence named
Cortana.
73
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,600
OK.
So she lives in Master Chief's
74
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:40,320
head.
Yeah.
75
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:41,800
She goes.
Thanks for the tank.
76
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,120
He never gets me anything.
And then Sergeant Johnson says,
77
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,320
oh, I know what the ladies like.
Oh so.
78
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,240
Sergeant Johnson, I know.
Where are you?
79
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,000
And then the name of the next
chapter is, depending on your
80
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,680
level, either ladies like armor
plating or ladies like superior
81
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,000
firepower.
So I know I think it's funny as
82
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,320
shit, but anyway, lately, here's
the tie in.
83
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,560
Whenever I show my son one of
these profiles that we review,
84
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,440
he goes, oh I know what the
ladies like.
85
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,560
Oh my God.
I.
86
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,079
Love it, Isn't that great?
He is just a wee jam.
87
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,000
He's a wee jam.
And the wit he has his mother's
88
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,960
wit.
So I think about that every time
89
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,240
I come across a profile that's
particularly interesting or
90
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,080
ridiculous or angry.
Yeah.
91
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,400
But the profiles I think I want
to talk about today are the ones
92
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,440
that are just like, a super big
bummer.
93
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,840
Like, yes, incongruously, a big
bummer.
94
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:44,600
Like the antithesis to trying to
get somebody to feel hot and
95
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,840
bothered.
Right.
96
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:49,000
Like, oh hey, I feel sexy and I
want to date this person.
97
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,640
And I was thinking about that
this week because I had not one,
98
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,400
not 2, but three different
profiles that featured a picture
99
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,720
of this person in a cemetery.
What?
100
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:03,560
Yeah, like like posing by a a
gravestone.
101
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,680
Did did you get a feel for who
maybe it Was it a random
102
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,080
gravestone?
Or well, a couple of them, I
103
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,120
feel like we're maybe family
members that, you know, possibly
104
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,520
were older that had passed.
It was a little hard to tell.
105
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,680
But really, sadly, one of them
looks like this is a person's
106
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,200
child.
Oh my God.
107
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,600
I know that is.
Like awful.
108
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,200
It's horrible.
The worst, right?
109
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,000
Heartbreaking.
The worst but dating profile
110
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,840
question mark.
I mean, it's, it's an
111
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:34,440
interesting choice for Tinder,
yes.
112
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,760
It does.
It doesn't scream Tinder to me.
113
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,080
No.
That's like on so many levels.
114
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,120
It's very sad.
I mean, it's it's heartbreaking.
115
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,280
This is the worst thing I could
imagine.
116
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:50,240
Of course, yeah.
But Tinder right, I don't it
117
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:53,440
yeah I I'm kind of lost for
words I.
118
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,520
I know.
Yeah, the idea of a selfie,
119
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,840
yeah, I just don't get that on
so many.
120
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:03,240
Levels, I know, so it made me
feel really, really sad for this
121
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,600
man, but it it didn't make me
want to swipe on this profile.
122
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,320
Yeah, well, and the cynical part
of me, it's like, yeah.
123
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,480
Why are you using that in the
dating profile and?
124
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,120
I I admit my defensiveness and
cynical nature when it comes to
125
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,240
dating.
Like you shouldn't diet those
126
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,760
things, but it's just like what?
What feeling are you trying to
127
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:28,400
elicit by sharing I you know.
Yeah, sympathy, I think, yeah.
128
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,800
And obviously this would be a
really important part of of you,
129
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,400
of course, had that happen.
But maybe it's not something to
130
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,920
lead with.
No on Tinder before you've met
131
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,800
someone.
I, I I would stand in agreement
132
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:44,360
with that.
It seems too serious and it's,
133
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,320
yes, you know, almost
trivializing it to put it on
134
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,560
Tinder like that.
Well then I just also.
135
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,440
I wonder how often that works.
I don't know.
136
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:57,920
Like, would you feel impressed
to swipe upon a man in a
137
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,640
cemetery?
Never, Yeah.
138
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,640
I don't, I don't think that that
would would get me going, no.
139
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,000
Do you have anything similar?
You know, I have noticed and
140
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,760
maybe it's our time of life.
Where are you saying we're old?
141
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,520
I'm just saying that at this
stage, we're more likely to be,
142
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,520
say, caring for an ailing
parent.
143
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,840
Yes, that's true.
Something along those lines.
144
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:26,400
Right, it's happening.
Again, universal experience,
145
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,360
something we you can connect
with people.
146
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,840
This is a rough time of life,
you know.
147
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,320
Jewel caregiver to kids and
aging parents.
148
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,800
Yeah, definitely.
And also maybe don't put a
149
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:42,520
picture with your ailing
relative in a hospital bed with
150
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,160
tubes coming out of them selfie
on your dating profile.
151
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,520
What?
No.
152
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,920
Like I have seen multiple and
this week where you are like
153
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,120
taking a selfie.
And again, I know everybody
154
00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:01,200
deals with stuff differently,
but like I don't, I don't know
155
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,400
that AI would want to take a
selfie in that circumstance.
156
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,840
And #2 that I would share it
publicly.
157
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:11,200
Like maybe you want it for your
own self, but again, like on
158
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,840
Instagram or a dating profile or
so I just, I don't know, that
159
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,720
just doesn't seem.
OK, so back up so.
160
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,800
You're like I need to have.
A selfie?
161
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,640
Yes, in front of someone
potentially in the ICU if tubes
162
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,880
are coming out.
I mean, they are connected up to
163
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,800
machinery.
OK?
164
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,600
So they look conscious most of
the time.
165
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,440
Like, yeah, I know.
Are these people smiling in the
166
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,919
selfie?
Well, I mean some of them have
167
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:39,480
tubes, so like.
No, no, I mean, I mean the man
168
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,799
taking a picture, is he, is he
smiling like, Oh my God.
169
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:47,240
They're just like, hey, and and
again, maybe they're trying to
170
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,320
elicit like the compassionate
view is they're like I am a.
171
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,880
Caregiver.
Well, maybe it's a selfie they
172
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,880
took to send to a relative or
something like that, but then
173
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,960
they're like, hey, you know
where else this girl?
174
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,040
Oh my God, no pun intended.
Oh man.
175
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,560
Yeah, like I just, I again, I
don't know, like there's a
176
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:11,160
limited number of spots.
We choose these pictures very
177
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,160
carefully and here they are with
their ailing like and the the
178
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,640
people they're taking a selfie,
but they never look in good.
179
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,200
Health.
Well, not if they're in the.
180
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,360
Hospital with tubes and shit.
Yes, I don't like that at all.
181
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:25,600
I.
Don't like that either, it makes
182
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,240
me like sad.
OK, you know what man, if you're
183
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,760
listening and you need some
advice on how what pictures to
184
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,280
include on your dating profile,
please go back, back and listen
185
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,720
to our Men and their Dead Fish
episode.
186
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,840
We cover that we do and I feel
like you could maybe get some
187
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,280
pointers.
Yes, because there are other
188
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,480
pictures you could include and
like you say, 2nd, 3rd, 4th
189
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,200
theat.
Well, sure, then we share our
190
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,160
stories.
Right.
191
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,600
I mean in person when you're
talking like here's the thing
192
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,560
that's going on in my life or
that happened that was important
193
00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:58,560
to me exactly.
It's not that you can't share
194
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:01,600
that it's just before you've met
someone on Tinder.
195
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:02,520
It's.
Like a lot.
196
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,880
That's a lot.
Well, and also just again,
197
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,440
limited species, like we don't
need to know your life story
198
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:08,480
here.
We're seeing if there's a
199
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,920
connection.
Yeah, that's right.
200
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,520
If we want to go on a date.
And if I see cemeteries or tubes
201
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,320
and ailing relatives, because
I'm not, I don't feel like you
202
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,280
wanna go.
On a date, yeah.
203
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,360
You know that little who that is
so apparently rare.
204
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,560
Yeah days but yeah well you know
what else doesn't turn me on
205
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:29,120
well let me tell you about this
this profile I came across and
206
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,440
actually we have both seen this
this person before on the dating
207
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,920
apps OK so I'm gonna call him
Sean yes that is not his name
208
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,080
but and we.
Protect the innocent, yes.
209
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,640
That's right.
This Sean is notable because I
210
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,640
think he is very good looking.
Would you agree?
211
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:43,800
I would agree.
Yeah.
212
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,720
The reason he does stand out in
the quagmire?
213
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,800
Yeah, yes, yes, he's, he's very
good looking.
214
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,680
Yes.
The reason neither of us have
215
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,960
swiped on him before is that
Sean used to have a picture with
216
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,800
his finger all the way up his
nose like.
217
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360
Far up his nose.
Yeah, yeah.
218
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,880
Yeah, like an excavation.
And it give us a little bit of
219
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:02,400
an.
Yeah.
220
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,120
So neither of us, we have shared
with each other that you know
221
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,080
this picture before several
times, but neither of us have
222
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,920
ever swiped.
Well, you'll be happy to know
223
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,000
that Sean has removed his nose
picking picture that is.
224
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,880
Good, maybe he did get some
feedback.
225
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,480
Maybe, yeah, but I would argue
that the picture he replaced it
226
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,160
with is even worse.
Oh my God.
227
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,760
What is he doing in this?
What's he excavating?
228
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,960
Well, the excavation actually
does come into it.
229
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,040
Oh God.
Because he's on a theme of
230
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,760
nothing.
Else well, you know how a lot of
231
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,640
people like to include travel
pictures.
232
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,360
Yeah.
And and I think these are good
233
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,120
as long as you don't go too
crazy and over worse, right.
234
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,600
Right.
Oh, I like to travel.
235
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,360
I get out there.
I'm not, you know.
236
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,760
Yes, just.
Stuck in the US, right?
237
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,440
I have a broader OR horizon.
Yes, I like it OK, but I don't
238
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,360
really like this picture because
it is a picture of Sean.
239
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,520
Yeah, popping out gleefully like
a jack-in-the-box from the Viet
240
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,040
Cong tunnels.
OK, that's wow.
241
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,800
That's a choice.
That is a very definite choice
242
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,040
on so many levels.
And also, why are these a
243
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,680
tourist attraction?
Well, I mean, I it's a tourist
244
00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:14,200
attraction, I guess, because,
you know, you can make money.
245
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,800
And I actually don't really have
a problem with people visiting
246
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,240
it, right?
Like, this is a really dark
247
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,000
period of history.
Really dark.
248
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,840
But bopping out with a smile on
your face for your dating
249
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,480
profile is is another thing ta
da we.
250
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,200
Like, I don't like it.
I think it's a poor.
251
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:35,000
Taste death and destruction.
Yay yay. 100% on board with you.
252
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,960
Like all for Memorialize me, I
can't say.
253
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,040
Memorialize.
Thank you sights and stuff.
254
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,200
I think my tongue is too big for
my mouth.
255
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,520
Sidebar.
Anyway, thank you for filling in
256
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,080
the words.
Yes, but again, dating profile
257
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,880
and also there's exuberance.
Would you say is that fair?
258
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,920
In this picture?
There's exuberance.
259
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,920
That's the thing that I don't
like.
260
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,520
And I, again, I don't have a
problem visiting these things.
261
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,840
Of course, for example, a couple
of years ago my son and I went
262
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,800
to Hiroshima and went to the
museum and saw, you know, where
263
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,600
the United States dropped an
atomic bomb on a civilian city,
264
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,280
right?
And the impact of being there is
265
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,000
actually a lot being in the
actual site, of course.
266
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,840
So I think that was an important
visit.
267
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,120
Okay, that my son and I.
With your kid, sure.
268
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,760
However, lessons learned.
However, I would not, however,
269
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,440
take a selfie in front of
Hiroshima and then put it on
270
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,480
Tinder.
Be kind of be poor taste.
271
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,160
Extremely poor taste.
Yeah, and they would not endear
272
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,080
me to swipe no, even though
you're a queen.
273
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,120
I would be like.
Thank you, but it's a little
274
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,800
weird.
Yeah, insensitive maybe.
275
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,960
Extremely.
Yeah, Yeah.
276
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,440
Wow.
So that's fun.
277
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,680
That's super fun.
Well, we're coming close to the
278
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:50,680
end.
Do you have anything else to
279
00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:54,440
share with me?
Well, Speaking of pictures of in
280
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:59,560
inappropriate memorials to
tragic events in the world, I I
281
00:13:59,560 --> 00:14:03,520
saw another sort of breathtaking
photo choice.
282
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,480
This week, some of these do take
your breath in a bad.
283
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,960
Way and not for that.
Like the weak at the knees
284
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,400
reasons, but the not.
In a sex.
285
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,880
Dear Jesus, the audacity or like
what were you thinking?
286
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:19,760
So this guy did, he defines
himself as a nice guy.
287
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:25,760
So just to share a little bit of
of the bio, he says a kind man,
288
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,320
not a nice guy.
So, you know, that's like some
289
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:34,360
mental gymnastics there.
If kindness is sexy to you, then
290
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,960
I'm Brad Pitt.
I'll make your heart sing.
291
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:44,000
Period.
Unique period JA adore period.
292
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,000
I'm already.
Grossed out?
293
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,240
Yeah, my friend.
Just terrible.
294
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,520
Sorry for the pronunciation
there.
295
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:48,920
That's better than mine.
Yeah.
296
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,320
So.
So yeah, he does confess he does
297
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,560
have an average IQ.
Oh Oh no, I read that wrong.
298
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,520
He's he did an arrow.
He is above average.
299
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Of course he is.
And then so this is interesting
300
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,080
because he did 1 arrow, you
know, above average IQ, but then
301
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:13,320
five arrows EQ.
So he's really got the high
302
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,600
emotional, OK.
So the emotional intelligence is
303
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,200
off the freaking chart strong
with this one.
304
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:21,560
Off the charts.
OK.
305
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,280
All right.
Self-described, yes.
306
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,640
So just before I reveal what
this picture is, he did say I
307
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,920
feel my emotions deeply and this
is probably true when you
308
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:35,640
consider then that his profile
picture was of Ice Fitch.
309
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:36,840
Ice Fitch?
I can't say.
310
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,680
That right, Auschwitz.
Yes.
311
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,240
Are you shitting me right now?

312
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,000
with.
Auschwitz, the concentration.
313
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,920
Camp in Poland, yes, with A tag.
A favorite memory of mine.
314
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,240
Oh, no.
Oh my God, yes, Claire.
315
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,760
I know.
Oh, put a fork in me, I'm done.
316
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,600
Yeah.
But he is plant beast, so it's
317
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:00,280
all OK.
Oh.
318
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,200
My God, like Auschwitz.
Yes.
319
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,040
What?
Yes.
320
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,120
No.
So yet, I mean, at least it
321
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,800
wasn't a selfie question mark.
It was just of the please, I'm.
322
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,960
Going to cry?
Yeah, I know.
323
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,320
This is at the point where we're
like, there's no hope.
324
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,680
Auschwitz.
Yeah, Yep, yeah.
325
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,000
So there we have it, my friends.
I'm speechless.
326
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:33,040
Yeah, stay married.
But you know what my son would
327
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,400
say?
Oh, I know what the lady is
328
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,720
like.
That's.
329
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,200
The picture that's.
Going to get me laid.
330
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,720
Wow.
Yeah, All right, friends.
331
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,920
Well, on that note, on that
note, I I I don't see where we
332
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,360
go from there.
So we're done.
333
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,280
We are done.
Enjoy the rest of your week.
334
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,680
We'll be back at you next time.
We're going to cry now, OK?
335
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:52,720
Bye bye.
