0:25.0 | Can I be honest? No. I don't hate you. The only reason that I didn't move out truly is because I had Alex with me. I'm moving out like a loan. I'm moving out alone by yourself. Yeah. Okay. And you know, I really think my opinion we's that much around there. Yeah. I think that it adds about 23% right, which is pretty hefty. That's hefty. Right. Yeah. So well, we're glad you're still here. Yeah. In the same house. Do the people know the extent of how much you moved out? |
0:55.0 | To a point where I put in the deposit. How much? Tangerine. What you got back? Whatever. And I also bought an $8,000 mattress, which you returned. Okay. But speaking of the $8,000 mattress, you signed the lease too, right? Not inside the lease. Uh-uh. Yeah, but we were going to move in that day and we didn't. We called the landlord. What was he like? She was a she. She was like, she's actually pretty understanding, but probably really confused. Sorry. |

I went to like three different ones. There's three of them all in a row. They're styled like car dealers. They're everywhere. Yeah. |
1:49.0 | So you walk in. There's sales guys sitting at the desks, right at their desks. And I walk up to like, fucking vultures. This motherfucker. Listen to me. This is insanity. This guy told me that the bed that I was buying the mattress that I was sitting on that I liked. I the first one that I sat on Mercedes of mattress. He said Bentley shut up. That asked. He said Bentley first off. Second off. He's he tried to sell to me for $11,000 for 11. |
2:18.0 | And after like the first the mattress was fucking insane. I would have paid the 11 you loved it. I like in love. You know, you're not paying for the bed frame. It's literally just the mattress. You're fucking not. I would have paid the 11. I don't care. |
2:31.0 | But you know, I calm down for a second and I started thinking. Okay, 11. A lot. No, seriously, I had I had that I was like, whoa, whoa, I'm not saying I looked. I looked up how much mattresses are online. It was like $1,000. I was like, come on. Maybe I am over paying a lot. |
2:46.0 | So anyways, I'm on the bed. I'm laying there and this fucking comfort blast bed. I just can't stop thinking about like how much I'm going to love it when I take it. What size? What size we talked to the king? |
2:56.0 | And so I'm thinking I'm constantly in the guy now sees that I'm contemplating at first. He's like, 11. Take it right now. It's yours. We have an stock. I'm like, yes, I love it. I love it. And then I start realizing I'm a fucking idiot. Right. Right. So then I got realizes that I realize that I'm an idiot. |
3:12.0 | And he goes, all right. Talk to me. Come on. Give me some numbers. Like I'll give it to you for less. Whatever. And I was like, okay, a grand. He's like, all right, done. |
3:22.0 | We're like, just like that. I just saved $3,000. You're like, I should have said more. So at this point, I'm like, this guy is trying to scam me because if you went down that quick, that much money, done. This bed is not worth this much. |
3:40.0 | Yeah. And so end. I forgot the name, but it was like, it was, I actually did talk to other mattress stores, just to kind of like question the guy. And they did say that that was like the nicest mattress that you can buy. I mean, unless you open like the $100,000 range, that's like the nicest mattress you can buy. Holy fuck. |
