That's. That's why you're the math. [00:01:11] Speaker A: Yeah, it's just. Yeah, it just works. You know what? Before we even get started today, I got to tell you, man, we going to have to start, like, collaborating on what we going to wear during the show. [00:01:20] Speaker B: Why? Because we're both wearing a polo. [00:01:22] Speaker A: I'm gonna tell you something. Let me ask you something. Does this shirt make me look like I change your oil? [00:01:28] Speaker B: Yes. [00:01:29] Speaker A: It does, doesn't it? I know. I mean, it looks like it looks like we boat fishermen, Salemins or something. Like, if you look at you, you look like the salesman. If we about to go sell the boat and then you bring them to my desk so I can close the deal on how much they paying. [00:01:42] Speaker B: You know, I don't like the fact I'm looking at the camera, but I'm looking at our screen. I can see us. You. [00:01:49] Speaker A: I look like the dude that you brought. Oh, yeah, I do. I look like the guy that's got to close the deal. I got to be the guy to deliver the bad news while you walk around like, what? He didn't want to do that deal. [00:01:59] Speaker B: Oh, my gosh, man. That is terrible. [00:02:01] Speaker A: Look at us, man. You look like you sell Ferraris. [00:02:04] Speaker B: I do. That shirt is a. Yeah. [00:02:06] Speaker A: This looks like I change your oil at Valvoline or someplace. This looks like something you pull in you. And I'm going, hey, you want a laptop and a cup of coffee? [00:02:13] Speaker B: Oh, my gosh. [00:02:14] Speaker A: Yeah. What? [00:02:16] Speaker B: You know what's funny, too? I saw the polo on you, and I just. I didn't even say it looks like something. I just said that polo is different on you. [00:02:26] Speaker A: Yep. And as soon as I sat down. [00:02:29] Speaker B: I was like, man, you just need that name. [00:02:31] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm about to give you that 1999 deal. [00:02:35] Speaker B: Change the oil. And while I was underneath there, I realized you had. [00:02:37] Speaker A: But only for. Only for 520 and below. [00:02:40] Speaker B: Yo, you know what I'm gonna do now, too? When I'm starting to go to mechanic shops, do all of them wear. I feel like all of them are in black or dark blue. [00:02:47] Speaker A: They like that. Yeah, it just keeps the stains, I guess. You can't see, like, oil spots and stuff. It looks. Yep. [00:02:54] Speaker B: Yours looks like you look like the executive mechanic where that gray gives you the stripes of like. You might also be out in the. [00:03:01] Speaker A: I'm going to tell you, if anybody. If anybody recognizes me from any dry bar video comedy specials, you'd be, look, this is the shirt I'm wearing in that video. Yeah, dog. [00:03:10] Speaker B: That polo looks like he can. He fixes the car. But every now and then, because I'm out somewhere, step in and do the sales job a little bit. Yeah, that's that. [00:03:18] Speaker A: Like, you look like. You look like. They look like you just walked in and you was like, hey, these people are trying to put a thousand dollars down. And I'm like, here, have a seat at my desk. Thanks, Twitty. I'm glad you brought them in. Didn't realize that shirt's looking great on you. [00:03:31] Speaker B: Oh, I didn't realize we look like that, man. [00:03:32] Speaker A: Yep, that's what we look like. We either selling cars or we selling campers. [00:03:36] Speaker B: Gosh, I wish I could just pause this podcast and go change, because I really don't. [00:03:42] Speaker A: We riding this now. I'm giving oil changes and you selling Ferraris. [00:03:45] Speaker B: Oh, man. Well, that's the show. Without even knowing it, on accident, we decided we're going to be car salesman and a mechanic. But so transitioning from sales to content, I guess. [00:03:58] Speaker A: Okay, tell me freaking. [00:04:00] Speaker B: Hey. [00:04:00] Speaker A: I can't look at it. Sorry. I just. I just could. Not even. That's what I'm saying is I wanted to get it out the way before we even started because I knew you was gonna have a hard time looking at me for only thinking 1999. [00:04:09] Speaker B: Well, and I also think I. I thought I looked good. Like, just regular. [00:04:12] Speaker A: No, you do look good. That's why I said Ferraris. I didn't say you were selling Hyundais. I said you were selling boats and Ferraris. That's what I said. Like, that's where I would put you. I wouldn't be having you out there sell it. And I'm not saying anything to any Hyundai dealers. Don't get mad at me. [00:04:25] Speaker B: They probably, like, they actually do look better than us. [00:04:29] Speaker A: I didn't say that. [00:04:30] Speaker B: When you podcast, you know that shirt he got? Go get that for us. But no, man, I think I'm going to stump you. [00:04:37] Speaker A: You don't stop me. [00:04:39] Speaker B: I don't know every culture in every race. [00:04:42] Speaker A: Okay, okay, but me neither. I don't either, but I feel like. [00:04:45] Speaker B: You'Ve been around longer, and maybe this is a phrase that I just don't know for another culture. [00:04:51] Speaker A: Go ahead. [00:04:52] Speaker B: You ready for this? [00:04:53] Speaker A: Go. [00:04:54] Speaker B: Can you tell me if there is any other race or any other culture that has a phrase for black people? [00:05:04] Speaker A: What do you mean? [00:05:05] Speaker B: So you know the phrase, once you go black, you don't go back? [00:05:10] Speaker A: Okay, black don't. Black don't crack. [00:05:13] Speaker B: Right? Is there a phrase for other races? Because I don't know them. Like. Like, is there. Like, once you go white, everything is going to be all right? Like, there. You don't like that. You don't hear no other phrase? [00:05:25] Speaker A: No. [00:05:26] Speaker B: And this podcast might be short because I don't know. By the way, I don't want this to be short. Get in the comments if there is, because I have never heard. [00:05:35] Speaker A: Me neither. I haven't heard of another one. [00:05:37] Speaker B: White, Hispanic, Polynesian. Like, I don't. I don't know. [00:05:42] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't know. [00:05:43] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:05:43] Speaker A: If it's like, if it ain't Hawaiian, you ain't trying, right? [00:05:46] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:05:46] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:05:47] Speaker B: There could be some dope ones. [00:05:48] Speaker A: I mean, there's. I mean, there's been some. Like, the Flying Hawaiian. Like, there's a guy that you did the X Games on the bikes and they call him the Flying Hawaiian. But, yeah, any of them. [00:05:59] Speaker B: I asked my wife, I asked my friends, I asked other cultures, and it's like, I don't know one that's crazy. Like, yeah, black don't crack. And if once you go black, you don't go back and you can't even say it for the reverse way, like, if it's a white guy or a white woman, you can't be like, oh, once you go. [00:06:16] Speaker A: And if you. And if you do, it just. It just seems like you're just trying to copy and substitute something for what already forceful. Right? [00:06:23] Speaker B: Like, I feel like once you go black, you don't go back. Just, like, rolled naturally. It wasn't like a bunch of black people were like, we got to figure something out. [00:06:31] Speaker A: I bet you there's something out there. And I bet you there's something. And it probably might be phrases from like that were handed down to kids growing up. Right. I'm gonna tell you this because I'm your mom, I'm your dad, or I'm your uncle, and I'm your auntie, and I'm saying this, but I don't. [00:06:44] Speaker B: Although the one you said about Hawaiian, you ain't trying. And I feel like my once you go white, it's all right, was pretty good. [00:06:50] Speaker A: I mean, most of the culture, like, we. We know things that when we don't listen, we are said. We are told them in Hawaiian. [00:06:56] Speaker B: Gotcha. [00:06:57] Speaker A: Like, we have. We have things that are said to us. Like, if we. If we're not listening, we're told pepe akuli. Which means. [00:07:03] Speaker B: That means. [00:07:03] Speaker A: That means your ear is. It means stink ear. So it means your ear ain't listening. Your earring doing what it's supposed to. [00:07:11] Speaker B: Gotcha. That's the. Oh, what my grandma used to say if you wasn't listening. Oh, the phrase in one ear, out the other. [00:07:19] Speaker A: Yes. [00:07:20] Speaker B: Which Polynesian. [00:07:21] Speaker A: Which. It goes back to the. The happy faces behind my ear because something I picked up since I was 2 years old. [00:07:29] Speaker B: Say that while pinching your ear. [00:07:31] Speaker A: Oh, she would say that. By the time she was grabbing from my ear, she'd be like, pepe akuli, come here and pull me up off the ground. [00:07:38] Speaker B: So she was calling you stinkier. [00:07:39] Speaker A: Yeah, because I'm. No, I wasn't listening. I wasn't doing what she was telling me to do. I was doing what I thought I could do on my own. [00:07:44] Speaker B: What's the other one? I guess that's not a phrase. That's more of a. What would you call that? Superstition. That's a totally different subject. I'm not gonna get them. I was gonna say the phrase, if you sneeze multiple times, somebody's talking about you. [00:07:58] Speaker A: See, I heard. [00:07:59] Speaker B: Related to a culture. [00:08:00] Speaker A: But. [00:08:00] Speaker B: See, but I'm saying I heard it. [00:08:02] Speaker A: If it's a ringing in your ear. If you hear a ringing in your Right ear. That means somebody is saying something good about you. And if you hear a ringing in your left ear, something said, somebody's saying something bad about you. And they said, if your left ear rings, you're supposed to bite your tongue. [00:08:16] Speaker B: I never heard that one. Oh, I've always done the. If you sneeze or if your nose is itching, somebody's talking bad about you. [00:08:24] Speaker A: Huh? [00:08:25] Speaker B: I've never heard the left ear. Right. [00:08:27] Speaker A: That wasn't my. My nose been itching and I've been sneezing, man. Yeah. Is that why three sneezes in a row makes you like something else? They say if you sneeze three times in a row, you like or something. I'm like, yeah, it's. [00:08:36] Speaker B: I don't know about a demon, but I've heard it. Just. If you sneeze three times in a row, it's like, okay, I will tell you this. [00:08:42] Speaker A: My mom told me if you. If your left ear is ringing, that means somebody's talking about you right now, like, in the middle. That's when your ears is like. And it's only in that one ear. If it's in. If it's in your left ear and you start hearing it, you're supposed to bite your tongue. Now I'm going tell you something. Comedians, they love to talk about other comedians, things like that. Stuff gets around. My left ear was blowing up. I started biting the hell out of my tongue. [00:09:06] Speaker B: Because it's bad. Yes, right ear is good, which makes sense. [00:09:10] Speaker A: I came into contact with a comedian that night that was opening. I think he was doing a guest spot in my show whose tongue he had bit. He had bit his own tongue, and he was talking about it. He was like, yeah, man. I was. It was today. He was earlier today. And I was sitting there like, what? And he was like, yeah, I just bit my tongue out of nowhere. And I was like, what was you saying? [00:09:28] Speaker B: Oh, you biting your tongue is supposed to stop. That's weird. Yeah, that's got you. She makes sense now. [00:09:36] Speaker A: And he got back to me, like. He got back to me like, yeah, I bit my tongue today. And I was like, ooh, why did you bite your tongue? What time did you bite your tongue today? And he told me it was around the same time that I bit mine. And I was like, you must. And all I said was, well, you must have been saying something about somebody, and you just accidentally bit your tongue in the middle of it, huh? I went back to my mom. I gave my mom a little dab. I was like, at Works I'm doing that every time my ears ring. [00:10:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:10:01] Speaker A: Because you never know, you might have somebody walk up like, man, I'll be in my tongue today. Then you just look at him. What was you saying today? [00:10:07] Speaker B: So happen you ran into me, huh? [00:10:08] Speaker A: I hope everybody out there watching this just start biting their tongues when they hear they left earring. [00:10:12] Speaker B: Feel like a lot of people don't. Again, just speculating. I didn't know it. That don't mean everybody is like me. I feel like you just put a lot of people on with the ears ringing. Oh yeah. If THC did or didn't. I'm asking you to fill these comments up. But today I know, I'm sorry. [00:10:26] Speaker A: I know there's somebody out there that's. [00:10:27] Speaker B: Let us know if you ever heard that one. Cuz I honestly have never heard that one. I've heard the step on the crack making mama's back the nose. [00:10:34] Speaker A: I've heard the whole. [00:10:35] Speaker B: If you drop salt throwing on the shoulder. [00:10:38] Speaker A: Yep. Or somebody. You're an unexpected company coming over. Yeah. [00:10:42] Speaker B: Never heard about ears ringing so. And if you got any other ones phrases. Because right now we just specified there ain't no other. Like once you go black, you go. Don't know. [00:10:52] Speaker A: No, no. Not as far as like ethnicity. Like I haven't really heard any of them. They except for like just little sayings like that. [00:10:58] Speaker B: I'm just very bummed. I feel like there should be somebody without forcing it should just start working that in. [00:11:05] Speaker A: Like I think somebody just quit because they just didn't want to sound like they was copying. I think they was just like, you know what? This ain't gonna be original. If we come up with something, it's not gonna sound original. Like it was original from the beginning. So like just for us to say something or for anybody to say something that almost sounds like that you don't. [00:11:19] Speaker B: Feel like you following in. Yeah. [00:11:21] Speaker A: It's gonna sound like a remix. [00:11:22] Speaker B: You got to come up with a totally different genre. [00:11:24] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:11:25] Speaker B: So it's almost. If you say once you go black, you don't go back. Then you got to just think of a. Oh, you gotta hit a different. Okay, so I got it. I got it. [00:11:34] Speaker A: Okay. [00:11:34] Speaker B: Once you don't. Once you go black, you don't go back. That's related to the race. You could maybe for another culture, somebody could do a phrase on height. Once you go tall, something. Once you go short, maybe once you go tall, what. [00:11:48] Speaker A: What's going around. That's the part that's important right there you can start as a premise. You didn't tell me how that's gonna end. Once you go tall. [00:11:56] Speaker B: Hey, I'm just saying something is small. [00:11:58] Speaker A: What? I don't. [00:12:00] Speaker B: That's what I'm saying. That's why I didn't want to finish, because I couldn't think of nothing. But that's where you got it. [00:12:04] Speaker A: That's where that leaves too much open. [00:12:06] Speaker B: That's the point. That is. That's a lot. [00:12:08] Speaker A: But once you go tall. So you go. We're gonna ask people. You come up with a different. Once you go tall, blank. [00:12:14] Speaker B: Once you go small. No, because you can't. You got to pick one. Because we just said once you go black, you don't go bad. You can't do. Once you go. [00:12:20] Speaker A: Once you go tall. [00:12:21] Speaker B: What's another thing people like? People like interracial relationships. They like somebody that's tall. They like somebody. Ooh. You could go with eyes. Once you go brown eye. [00:12:32] Speaker A: Green eye. [00:12:32] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:12:33] Speaker A: Blue eye. [00:12:34] Speaker B: Hair. You could pick hair. Like, once you go blonde, or once you go red, you should go body type. No, no. Once you go skinny, there won't be many. [00:12:50] Speaker A: We should do it with different food groups. You know, Once you go jelly donuts. Once you go. Once you go. Once you go full glaze. You know what I'm saying? Like. [00:13:00] Speaker B: Like, once you go glaze. [00:13:02] Speaker A: Yeah. Once you go glaze, you're gonna have some great days. Like, something. Like, something in there. [00:13:07] Speaker B: Okay. [00:13:08] Speaker A: You should do food products. You should do, like, you know, with chocolate on the side. Makes everything ride. Like, something. Like, just something smooth. [00:13:15] Speaker B: Yo. Anybody with food businesses, you're the Hawaiian comedian. The Hawaiian comedian. Or tac for sure. Or Twitty in the city. Put us on. I just want 2%. This is gonna be successful. I like this. I like that. [00:13:31] Speaker A: Food. We can do food. We can do clothes. We can do shoes. [00:13:35] Speaker B: We could do vehicles. [00:13:36] Speaker A: Like. Yeah. Oh, vehicles. There's a lot of people out there that are dedicated to their vehicles. [00:13:42] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:13:44] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:13:45] Speaker B: No, but I feel like brands already got their phrases. They just don't have it. They don't have a catchy jingle. [00:13:49] Speaker A: Usually their phrases are making fun of other people's phrases. True. Like, Ford and Chevy used to go back and forth all the time. I've heard so many Ford ones. It's. It's crazy. Fixed or repair daily found on road dead. Oh, yeah. [00:14:04] Speaker B: I ain't never heard that one. [00:14:05] Speaker A: Dude. There's a. There's a bunch of them. And freaking old rebuilt Dodge. [00:14:11] Speaker B: That's dirty. Yeah, I should Ask my uncles the numbers to work at the Ford. [00:14:15] Speaker A: The number one thing my dad used to say about force, my dad used to be like, yeah, Ford figured out the problem. They circled it. [00:14:22] Speaker B: That's. Oh, yeah, that's messed up. [00:14:24] Speaker A: Yeah, there you go. They go hard. [00:14:26] Speaker B: Circle. [00:14:27] Speaker A: They go hard. My dad used to tell me that people who drove Dodges were people that didn't want to get caught in the. In the argument between Ford and Chevy. That's the only reason why they bought Mopar. They bought Mopar because they didn't want to get in the hole. [00:14:40] Speaker B: I mean, if you're. If you're talking about timeline, it would make sense. [00:14:44] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:44] Speaker B: Because back then it was. He was your Ford or Chevy. Somebody was like, you know, if somebody was asking, what am I? I'm just going to be that one. They're like, you don't need to be in the conversation. [00:14:52] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:14:53] Speaker B: That's like avoiding that question. It's like, you like this? Yes or no? It depends. I get out my face, you ain't going to be in this conversation. Okay, good. Because I didn't want to. Okay. Brands. [00:15:03] Speaker A: Oh, brand is definitely, definitely. You can go. [00:15:06] Speaker B: Food. [00:15:07] Speaker A: Mm. [00:15:08] Speaker B: Oh, you could do seasons like summer, spring, winter, fall. But I feel like that's already out. Like April shout. No, that's not for that. Or would that be for that? April. April showers bring May flowers. [00:15:20] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:21] Speaker B: Is that considered for seasons? [00:15:23] Speaker A: Yeah, of course. Because that's springtime. [00:15:24] Speaker B: So they already. So can't do that one. They've already done. [00:15:26] Speaker A: No. [00:15:27] Speaker B: So that one's out. Get in the comments too. By the way, we're going to read these and have a follow up because I feel like we are on to something. And again, back to the original. If you happen to know the other phrase. And once you get. [00:15:38] Speaker A: Put them in the comments, please. [00:15:40] Speaker B: Because I'm just. I realized that I forgot who asked me? One of my friends did. And he was like, you ever noticed there ain't no phrase other than just once you go black, you don't go back? And I was like, no, there's no. Yeah, there's nothing. [00:15:53] Speaker A: There's nothing. No. [00:15:54] Speaker B: He was like, you should ask your co host. He was like, he's Polynesian. They probably. I was like, I'll ask. [00:15:59] Speaker A: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But most bars are all in different. [00:16:01] Speaker B: Languages and it's more about you not being something good. [00:16:04] Speaker A: Yeah. 100. [00:16:06] Speaker B: 100. That's funny. [00:16:08] Speaker A: And it's. And it's. It's. It's. What's not funny? Is trying to explain it to your friends later on once they heard you got, you know, pretty much yelled at in a different language. [00:16:18] Speaker B: Yeah. But they. [00:16:19] Speaker A: They got no reason nothing to hear it. [00:16:21] Speaker B: Oh, no. [00:16:21] Speaker A: I used to. When I used to tell my kids, I've had my kids friends say it too. They're like, what did your dad just say? Because I look at and be like, hey, as soon as you guys pow. You guys, I need you guys to go right straight over there now. And then go momoi. And like, they like. And must. All my kids sat there and it was like, yep, no problem. And like, their friends would be like, what did your dad just say? He said, oh, he said, first, if we're pow. With our khao cow, which means pow means finished. P A U. Pow. That means finish. He goes, when you're done with your food, I need you to go and I'll ow. Which means take a shower and then go momoi. Which means go right to bed when you pow. Go and go momoy. [00:17:05] Speaker B: See? And I again, I. When I heard momo, I was like, is he asking me to cut. That's why be like, you cut the. [00:17:12] Speaker A: Yard while you're sleeping. [00:17:12] Speaker B: Like, bro, it's. It's nine o'. [00:17:14] Speaker A: Clock. [00:17:14] Speaker B: You gotta cut the grass. Like, no, I gotta. [00:17:15] Speaker A: Well, that's what I'm saying. Most of the stuff that we knew, we knew when we was in trouble was we. We were being told to do something. [00:17:21] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:21] Speaker A: But we didn't have. Man, I wish we had something like that. If you ain't. If ain't Hawaii, if it ain't Hawaiian, you ain't trying. [00:17:27] Speaker B: Like, I'm. There is. [00:17:29] Speaker A: That should be one, right? [00:17:30] Speaker B: You need to go ask the family. I bet there is one. Not only is there one, I bet there's one in your language that is probably so badass. [00:17:39] Speaker A: What's funny is like, you know, like to hang loose. [00:17:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:42] Speaker A: And then they have like the. The sign, like, Right. We don't say hang loose. [00:17:47] Speaker B: No. Because you. Oh, you told me this. Yeah, it's. What do you say? [00:17:51] Speaker A: Shaka. [00:17:52] Speaker B: Yes. [00:17:52] Speaker A: And you say, shaka bra. [00:17:54] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:54] Speaker A: And you and you and you show the shaka symbol. Even if. If you ask any local Hawaiian, you say, hey, give me the shaka. All of them. But if you go, hey, let me see you hang loose. Yeah. They'll turn around like, oh, what? This guy said, hey, show him the shocker. Oh, shaka. Oh, yeah. Everybody will know. [00:18:15] Speaker B: I remember you telling me that. [00:18:17] Speaker A: And it's funny. And it's like, how they call them flip flops. Like, we call them slipper. S, L, I, P, P. A slipper. [00:18:26] Speaker B: But it doesn't have. So does a slipper have the thong in it between the toe? [00:18:31] Speaker A: We don't. It's a. It's a slipper. Regardless, it don't matter because it doesn't have. No, we don't call them thongs. We don't call them flip flops. We don't call them. We call them slipper, slipper, period. [00:18:42] Speaker B: And that is. [00:18:42] Speaker A: If you walk in, you're like, hey, where's my flip flops at? Like, you. Every single local person gonna look at you like, what did he just say? [00:18:49] Speaker B: So a slipper is a. From our terms, a slipper means all of these slides. Sandal, flip flops. [00:18:58] Speaker A: Not slides. [00:19:00] Speaker B: Not slides. [00:19:00] Speaker A: Only if it goes in between the toe. [00:19:02] Speaker B: Only if it goes in between. [00:19:03] Speaker A: That's the slipper. [00:19:05] Speaker B: What about ones that don't go in between the two? And they're slides. I mean, that freaking makes sense. [00:19:11] Speaker A: It's just a slide because you got it. Because you're missing that. [00:19:14] Speaker B: Got it. [00:19:15] Speaker A: That spot where the toe stops. [00:19:16] Speaker B: Got it. Okay. [00:19:17] Speaker A: Let me tell you something. I knew cousins. My cousins could run 30 miles an hour in some slippers. Never knew how they could do it. [00:19:23] Speaker B: That's impressive. [00:19:24] Speaker A: To. To put on. To put on slippers and try to run in at full speed. Nah, that's not happening. I used to have to take my slippers off every single time to go run. I'd have them in my hands. I don't know if anybody out there used to take their slippers and put them in between where the toe thing would go in between your finger. So you can hold your slippers in your hand as you running away from the dog that's chasing you. Oh, yeah, dog. [00:19:47] Speaker B: That. [00:19:49] Speaker A: That's 100. [00:19:50] Speaker B: Oh, that's the vision I would pay to see. [00:19:52] Speaker A: How many people have you seen run with slides on away from a dog? And you just like, nope, he going to eat it in, like, 30. [00:19:58] Speaker B: Well, that's. I'm saying that's the vision I want to see is the fact your cousins that were successful. Successful, because that means success. You are moving. [00:20:06] Speaker A: I watch big Polynesians play football in slippers, like, wearing slippers, and they wearing pads and being out on the practice field in their slippers protecting the line. And you ain't moving none of these dudes. And they all in slipper. Oh, God. Got my slipper on, like, oh, do you do? [00:20:24] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:24] Speaker A: They didn't make me look even Worse. I can't even move you. And you got on slippers. He's just laughing. Oh. Cause I didn't even work out. Like, damn. Really? You just this big all the time? Yes. All my cousins was like. I was the smallest cousin coming over. Every time I'd walk over, I'd be. [00:20:42] Speaker B: Like, look at all my secret. Do you curl the toes or something? [00:20:45] Speaker A: I don't know. I don't know. [00:20:46] Speaker B: I don't know if running, you gotta curl, because to me, if you don't. [00:20:51] Speaker A: Now, what do you mean? Do you mean scoot your feet all the way up and try to curl under? [00:20:55] Speaker B: Yes. [00:20:56] Speaker A: You can't do that because then you're gonna rub your knuckles on the asphalt or on the street. [00:21:00] Speaker B: But if you're too far back, you gotta learn. Catch. [00:21:03] Speaker A: You gotta learn how to run in slippers and make your heels touch first. [00:21:08] Speaker B: You can. [00:21:09] Speaker A: Yes, you can. [00:21:10] Speaker B: I've seen it, dog that match. [00:21:13] Speaker A: I mean, it looks. It looks funny as hell, but no, it's like a. You, you, you on straight. You can't do toes. You can't do toes and slippers. [00:21:19] Speaker B: So you're just healing the half the foot. And you just. Because you gotta. At least you gotta get some flat. [00:21:24] Speaker A: Yes. [00:21:24] Speaker B: But you're not. No, you're not doing this. [00:21:27] Speaker A: And you're not just on your toes. [00:21:28] Speaker B: Running, you're doing that. [00:21:30] Speaker A: Yeah. And if you are on your toes, then you are a master of the slipper. [00:21:35] Speaker B: Then I. [00:21:35] Speaker A: You are a master. [00:21:37] Speaker B: That's what I thought they was doing. Which I was like, is impressive. [00:21:40] Speaker A: And don't. Yeah, don't call them flip flops. [00:21:42] Speaker B: Slipper, slipper. But if it doesn't have the toe, it's a slot, it's a slide. But slipper, slipper. But then there, there even. [00:21:50] Speaker A: There might be some old. Some older, like Hawaiians that might see the slide and still call it a slipper. Just put your slipper on. Just put it on. It's a slide. I don't care what they call it, Just put them on. That's what my auntie would say. I don't care what you call it. [00:22:03] Speaker B: I don't care what you call it. [00:22:04] Speaker A: Just put them on. So, you know, book your feet. [00:22:07] Speaker B: Oh, man. All right. I asked for a lot. Let's go. Don't forget, get in the comments if you have another phrase for once you go black, you don't go back. And then also start adding for. If you're tall, hair color, eye color. And then we're going, food, your choice, your choice. Or if you're that good at writing. Do all three. [00:22:28] Speaker A: Three. Do all three. [00:22:29] Speaker B: Yeah, do all three. We're gonna go back to these comments. I think there's going to be some good ones. And then we're gonna be like, how do we not think of that? You, your homework assignment. Need to go hit up the family. [00:22:40] Speaker A: If it ain't Hawaiian, you ain't trying. [00:22:42] Speaker B: And see if there is a phrase maybe just in the Polynesian language. [00:22:46] Speaker A: Maybe I, I. There has to be. There has to be. You can't have that much culture in any type of, of, of ethnicity. You can't have that much culture and not have no. And not have the phrases or the niches or the stuff that came up through the society of that culture. [00:23:01] Speaker B: There's no way I'm calling it. There is one. [00:23:03] Speaker A: I'm gonna find one. I'm. I'm guaranteeing, like my cousins that, that are from Hawaii, they're probably blowing up the comments right now. Okay, remember this one? Ok. Remember this one? Remember Auntie used to always say this Y like. Yep. [00:23:14] Speaker B: Okay. That's his homework assignment. There's yours again. Hit the like, hit the subscribe. We're trying to get to 600. [00:23:19] Speaker A: Let's trying. Come on. [00:23:20] Speaker B: My goal is 625, but I will be happy with 600 by the end of this month. I'm twitty. That's THC till next time.
