i love reddit hot takes and stories

SPEAKER_00

So recently, I have really been enjoying using Reddit. I love going on Reddit, especially when I am like digesting or processing a certain topic, or I have I need to hear some views, or I'm doing like research for a podcast episode, and I need to know what people are saying about a certain topic. I usually go on Reddit. For some reason, I don't know why. I just sometimes you need an opinion from Reddit. You know, sometimes you're like, I would, I could use some Reddit opinions, some Reddit stories. It's so interesting. I've never met anybody who uses Reddit, like actually like posts on Reddit, but there is always somebody. One time I needed to know something, and it was something very important about work. And I went on Reddit and I saw somebody had written a comment on Reddit 11 years ago. Guys, I had to screenshot, I had to take a screenshot of this comment. It was that good. It was so good. I was like, oh my god, this is exactly what I needed to hear. God definitely used that Reddit user. And so today, in honor of uh my experience and my enjoyment using Reddit, I am gonna be reading some Reddit hot text. I'm gonna be reading some hot text from Reddit. Breast yourselves, get your popcorn, get your cup of tea. In fact, maybe use this time to do your chores or like go for a walk or whatever. Whatever you're doing. Uh so we're gonna go on Reddit uh and we're gonna read the hot text. So I googled Reddit fun hot text because I don't want them to be like, um, I don't want it to be too serious. Okay, so there's one that says non-political hot text that will definitely start a debate. Oh, music to my ears. Okay. Ah, okay. The question is, what are your harmless? So this is a subreddit. I think a subreddit is like a Reddit about a certain topic or something. Anyways, uh, I never get the app because I don't want it to turn into like some other type of social media. Uh, because now I don't have any social media on my phone. So I just read them every time I want to hear an opinion or like something fun to read. Sometimes stories. Okay, what are your harmless slash non-political hot takes that will definitely start a debate? The first take. Okay, okay, okay. This is a good one. The first one says, That's what she said is funny, and it was always funny, and it will be funny forevermore. I 100% agree. Every time somebody says that's what she said, I always laugh. It always gets me. It's such a funny joke, and I wish I'd be around more people who say that's what she said. People who make like that's what she said jokes. It's always perfectly timed. Like, this is the thing about comedy. You need to have comedic timing, you need to have an attention span, you need you need to be able to pay attention to your environment, to the people. And no, like people who say that's what she said always say it to people who get the joke. There's a group of people, I mean, I don't make that's what she said jokes, but I it's always funny when somebody does them. And I'm always like, it's always funny. I a hundred percent agree. I agree with this tech. By the way, I don't want to be saying 100% agree or 100% disagree because I don't wanna like uh actually I will say that because I am inspired by the show Subway Text. I love that show. I every time, every time I go on YouTube, there's usually like uh a shot of like Subway Text. I always listen to that. I I listen to that every time I open YouTube. I love that show. Shout out, shout out to Subway Text. Okay, um, this is also true for I don't even know her. Yes, yes, yes. By the way, if you don't know, if you don't know what like that's what she said jokes are, uh or like I don't even know her jokes, I think you should Google it. I don't wanna go into explaining it. Next, a major issue with modern food tasting worse than it used to is the anti-sodium slash heart health slash blood pressure movement, which led to a lot of companies to quietly reduce the salt content in things. Wait, this could be true. This could be true. I am not one of those people who are like modern food tastes so bad, because what am I gonna compare it to? You know? But then if people are saying this, and maybe this is true. Maybe this is true. Actually, you know what I noticed? I noticed that things in Europe taste different from things in Tanzania because the salt intake the salt has been reduced. It's good for your health, but obviously it's not so good for like the taste of the food. So I hundred, I 100% agree, and I actually think they should keep doing that because then it's good for your health, right? But then it's sometimes it kind of defeats the whole purpose because like they reduce the salt, but then they put uh 60 other chemicals. Uh, anyways, okay, listen to this one. Okay, next. There is nothing inherently immoral about cannibalism. Hear me out. Most of the issues we have with it involve murder and bodily autonomy. Suppose they died naturally, had no family, or next of kin, and gave written permission for you to eat them. Guys, I feel like my legs will start shaking. Uh, why does this feel like I'm in a horror movie scene? Uh aside from it, I'm I'm going on to read the tech. Aside from it widely being considered gross and weird, what's wrong? What's wrong? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Mind you, this is seven months ago. What? What is going on? I had no idea this, I had no idea this episode was gonna go in this direction. What do you mean? I am even scared to read whoever's name this is. What do you mean you don't see anything wrong with cannibalism? You don't see anything wrong with a human being eating another human being? What? What? Guys, stay safe out there. Say your prayers. Stay safe, be careful, don't go into strangers' houses. I'm actually starting to freak out. I don't know why I'm freaking out. Uh oh my god. Oh my god. What do you mean, guys? You know what? I am not over this. He's even giving reasons. He's like, he's like, oh, if they have no family and if they gave a written consent to be eaten, I'm sorry. But if you're alive and you're writing a written consent that if I die, people can eat me? I don't know. What? That is my reaction. That is my reaction to that. Lego is meant for all ages. 100% agree. I am not a Lego fan. And if I'm being honest, I kind of like sometimes don't get it because I'm like, like sometimes I'm like, because like sometimes every time I think I understand Lego, I understand, I come to find out that I don't. Because I used to think it's just about building. But then some people are like, it's more than building, it's like something else. And then I'm like, what is it though? And then I really don't get it. I went to the Lego store in Munich when I was in Germany, and it was really great to see all those pieces. But then it's like, I think it's fun, and I think it it can be a collector's item, but I don't want to say much about Lego because I'm not really sure about like what's the whole culture of like Lego, but I do agree it's for all ages because that Lego store was packed, it was really packed. Okay, pineapple on pizza is actually tasty. I said what I said, I agree. Pineapple belongs on pizza. I love a Hawaiian pizza any time of the day. Uh, next, that shouldn't even be a hot take, actually. That should just be life that American football is boring to watch. This is coming from an American. I have never watched American football, but I am generally not a sports fan. So I think I understand what this person is saying. Next, chefs don't have Michelin stars, restaurants do. Okay, I didn't, I I'm not sure. I'm not sure, but this sounds like something I would I would really maybe need to know. Uh, but I think if I start uh uh I can't say anything, I will have to do my own research. Okay, next, I hang toilet paper so it comes out underhanded because I like it better that way. No political comment I've ever made on Reddit has attracted down votes like this opinion does. Somebody say it straight to jail. I agree. I am not sure. Wait, I'm trying to understand this. I hang toilet paper, I hang toilet paper. She hangs her toilet paper, so it comes out underhanded. What is underhanded? I guess she's like, no. No. Is she doing it the opposite way from the way we are doing it? Somebody said, somebody said, somebody said it's people like you that cause unrest. Somebody said, I do too, and absolutely hate it when people correct it. Oh, I guess she hangs the toilet paper the way that like is not the normal way. The way that is like the opposite. What? I don't agree with that. Anyone who disagrees has never had a cat or a toddler. TP is expensive when you've got a little bit of chaos generator spinning the roll into the toilet paper to see what happens. And you never notice until everything is too quiet. Also, I don't have either at present, but I put it on that way because it subconsciously acts to make people use less and generally people use more than they need anyway. Um I understand everything about like I I think people should use enough toilet paper, right? Like, I don't know if you feel like it's what? I re- I'm really trying to understand what this woman is saying. Okay, next take. We've spent enough time on that. Okay, I am gonna actually change and such like funny hot takes. Funny Reddit hot take. Okay, this one says, what are some of your best? It's one from one year ago. What are some of your best hot takes? This one says the extra day from leap year should be moved to the beginning of the year, be called Jan Zero and be an extra New Year Eve's party. And be an extra New Year's New Year's Eve's party day. You know what? I agree. I actually agree. I I right if we know that we're gonna have a leap year with that one extra day, but then is it really one day? Isn't it like 365 and a quarter? Then, anyways, I agree. I totally agree. We should do that. Okay, this one then this one says the phrase it's all downhill from here means the opposite of what it should mean. Going down, going downhill is very much easier than going uphill. Sounds like good times ahead. Wait, guys, this makes sense because people usually say like if something bad is about to happen, people is like it's all downhill from here. Like if something is like, you know, like if if you do something that messes up everything, people are like it's all downhill from here. But it actually means the opposite. If you really think of it, it's easier to go downhill than uphill. So, like, that's like good times, right? Speaking of good times, now that all like the real, real, real listeners are here with me, I want to tell you guys something. I am actually in Budapest, Hungary, right now, recording this episode. I am having the best time. Oh my god, I am in Budapest for two nights and I'm having a great time. This is the first time ever I have ever recorded a podcast outside of my house. So I carried my podcasting equipment because I love you so much and because you stay up to this point. And thank you so much. And I am in Budapest, and we just finished playing this game of trains, so I'm here with some friends. We have a like this huge room and we are all here together, and we're leaving tomorrow. And like I am basically for 10 days after here, I'm going to another country, but we took like a 12-hour train yesterday and we were playing like trains. So this game called Trains, and we were playing for it's like a map with like a bunch of different countries, and you try to get to other countries without somebody obstructing you, and you have to buy cards and trade. It's so fun. I was so competitive. I was so competitive. It's actually insane. I was also sleep deprived because I didn't sleep the night before. And uh something else I need to tell you. I actually I was on the stairs after I went for my walk the whole day, and like I had breakfast and lunch and like snacks, whatever. Uh, I tried koache. It's like apparently, it's like this like raw thing. I tried it with cinnamon, not cinnamon, not cinnamon, I tried it with vanilla sugar because I tried it in Poland with pistachio, I loved it so much, and I was told that it's from Czech, but then in Hungary they say it's not from Czech, it's from Hungary. Speaking of Czech, I took a 12-hour train. We had a whole carriage with our friends, and it was so much fun. We that's where we did all the games, and uh we also played Cards Against Humanity. It's a fun time, and I'm telling you this because I I was actually editing while playing trains, editing an episode where I was telling you about all my endeavors and this trip and my time in Budapest. But turns out the episode stopped recording because the internet of the place that we're staying at is the Wi-Fi is really bad. And I was using the Wi-Fi from my phone, and I I guess something went wrong somewhere, and the episode stopped recording at the 14-minute mark, and I had been talking for like an hour and 16 minutes, and this is the second time. The last weekend, which is like the episode that was this episode that you're listening to right now, I there's two failed episodes because I recorded the other weekend, I had had I had had a mental breakdown, and then the next day I watched Stranger Things, and then I was feeling grateful and nostalgic. And then the last graduation scene made me cry, and then I recorded an episode, and I was talking about like my whole experience about like an emotional roller coaster of a weekend. That was the name of the episode, but it never made it, never made it out of the drafts because I recorded for a whole hour, but I didn't plug in my laptop. Uh, you need to do that so that to get high quality recording because it's because it's also like a strenuous activity for the laptop to record volume at a very high quality and to record you at a very high quality, and so that failed. And then this one also failed. It was a great episode, you guys. But I was like, you know what? Somewhere in the middle of the episode, I will tell the people because like this whole episode was gonna be like about my experience in Budapest and whatever. Uh, and every time something like that happens, I'm always like, it was not meant to be, it was not meant to be out there because all these episodes were episodes where I was like actually taking a leap and saying things that I wouldn't have otherwise said. By the way, somebody just came in because I told you we're all here in this place. So, so we're gone. Okay, I'm going on. So I actually agree with the take that says it's all downhill from here. We should be saying it's all downhill from here when we're talking about good things. So, like, I should be like, tomorrow I'm leaving and I'm going somewhere else for like a whole week uh in another country and it's all downhill from here. Wait, somebody replied to this one and said, I used to date a guy a million years ago who would cheerily say it's all downhill from here, specifically because downhill is easier. Bless him. I hope he's well and has maintained his optimism. Yeah. So again, as I said, I agree. Next take. No, I won't read this because it's about drugs. Next, this one says all cats are girls. I don't agree. I don't agree with that one. Uh, next, senior citizens should be required to take a driving test every two years after 75. My mom was in a car accident where an old woman rammed her from behind at full speed while she was stopped at a red light. She somehow didn't even see my mom's car. Thankfully, there were no cars in front of my mom and she was okay, but suffered injuries to her neck and back, and that forced her to say my retire from her job and prohibits her from doing a lot of the outdoor physical activity she used to enjoy. I agree. Once people get past the age of 75, we're not sure if you can drive well. And I think this should be done. But then again, uh, maybe they should like uh this will also maybe give like old people purpose, like the people who have retired. Uh yeah, this will give them purpose because they'll be like, I'm preparing for my another driving test. Though I don't think this will actually happen because most of like the leaders in power right now end up to be like old people, so I don't think they would actually pass that law. Uh, this one says, I cyclists do not belong on roadways. I agree 100%. Every time I see someone with a bike on the road, I am like, what are you doing? That is not your lane. Like on the road with other cars, I don't agree. People shouldn't do that, it's dangerous. I am actually scared for them. But I don't know, most people do it well. I would never do that. I don't know what you'd have to do to me for me to actually go on the road with other cars. No, I won't do that. Okay, next thing these people living in undisturbed tribes are really the ones living the dream. Uh no, actually. Some of them are living the dream, some of them are not living the dream because they have like uh actually, I won't I won't keep saying because everyone has different dreams. So I don't know. Anyways, I won't say much because I don't know much about that. Next take somebody says cheap bath towels wash slash dry your body. Yo, wait, cheap bath towels wash slash dry your body way better than expensive ones. Oh no, I disagree because cheap towels sometimes they you rub, like you know those cheap towels that when you use them, they they they start like producing like this fur like thing. Like there's like they leave like if for example, if it's a white towel, it leaves like white things on your body. Or if it's a black towel, it leaves like this black thing. So I don't agree with that take. I don't know which kind of towels this guy is talking about. Next thing falling asleep with someone right after no, I won't read this. I won't read this because it's a clean podcast. Next, pizza is overrated. I I think I know where this person is coming from because if you really think of it, pizza is dough and cheese and something on top of it. So I'm like, it's actually a little bit overrated, but then no, no, I actually agree for like 3% and disagree for 97%. Do you have something to say? You wanna say it on the podcast now?

SPEAKER_01

Okay, okay, he would like to decide okay. Actually, I absolutely disagree with him because pizza is not overrated. I think pizza is just underrated because pizza is the best food that I have ever eaten before. I agree a hundred percent.

SPEAKER_00

Thank you for your take. By the way, he came into the room and I was like recording, and then I feel like someone was looking at me. I turned back and he was giving me the eye of like, what? No, and I was like, he has to say something. Okay. Uh, people who are not kids are weird for watching Bluey. So I guess bluey is like a show for kids. And let's see what other people are saying. Because I don't know what bluey is. Somebody says, It's like my little pony all over again. Uh, somebody replied to that with a question mark, and the rest of the replied comments are like deleted, and somebody says ice cold take. I think it's yeah, I think I disagree with this person because I don't know, people can watch whatever they want. Wendy's is coming out with a Takis burger. I disagree. Takes do not belong on burger. Takis do not belong on burgers. This one says, not super hot, but it should be mandatory for everyone to work at least one year in a customer service position. This should limit the amount of blank blank to servers and such. I guess he's saying that like this to limit the amount of people who are being mean to people who work in customer service, uh this should be required. I actually agreed. I actually agree because uh foreigners in in Poland, I'm not sure about Europe, but I would think it's the same. For foreigners in Poland, it's very common for people to get jobs at customer service places. I've never worked in any of those. And if I'm being honest, I don't think I want to. I don't think I want to. But okay, this is my hot take about that. Just because you're a foreigner in Poland doesn't mean you have to work in customer service. You can have other dreams. Because sometimes people come here and then they had their own dreams and what they wanted to do. And I understand there's limitations and everything, but like if you're doing it as you're studying, or if you're doing it while also wanting to do what you actually wanted to do, that's okay. But like people who completely change their whole life to just because like the job that is available for most foreigners is customer service, and then they're like, I'm just gonna graduate and do customer service and everything will be okay. And I'm like, Yeah, you can do that for some time, but then it's like, is that what you actually want to do? So that's my hot take. But I totally agree to this because I I would imagine people are so mean to these customer service workers, and for people to work there, it should teach them. Also, I think people should also work as like 911 operators so that they can like be a little bit more grateful about their life. Or somebody says that just that is just based off your moral alignment, though people will still be mean regardless. Oh, I understand. Because some people will be like, you know what? I did my time and people were mean to me. I'm gonna be mean again. So it might not solve anything, but at least it will help more people than it won't. Okay. Uh somebody said, Oh no, no, some of these are mean towards people. No, I believe no. The government, no, we don't want anything about the government. Uh someone is like, okay, so. My hot take was so hot it got removed by Reddit. It was probably mean. Uh what? Someone says, I'd honestly take fat jokes of any kind of modern brain rot, any day of the week. Toilet humor was actual thought put into it. At least try to be appealing. While idiots nowadays are just like, oh, a random popular person said a completely normal phrase. Let's just spread it all around the internet and ruin the phrase forever. Like, why? Why is 6-7 even funny? Oh, this person is mad. This person is mad, and you know what? I agree. I agree. But no, actually, no, I take that back. I don't agree. I disagree. Because, like, if people are finding joy in something, let them have joy. Oh, you know, this whole conversation of like, oh, back in the old days, this, this, this. I know we, I know sometimes we can compare things like that. But then again, it's like, hey, your generation had things and they were fun and they were nice. This generation is gonna have their own things, and you need to be okay with that. We also need to be okay with what like the past generations were doing. Like, of course, I'm talking about the humor aspect of it all, you know, because I understand why this person is like, why is 6-7 even funny? But like, if if somebody said something, I mean, sometimes some people like do award shows and like they say things to like the you know, the canned laughter. No, no, not award shows. Like, I see some shows where it's like they put like not funny jokes to canned laughter, and I'm like, oh, I I actually have a hot take. Some late night shows I won't name need to change their audience. Some audiences, I there's one particular late night show that I love so much. Actually, I don't, but there's one particular late night show where the audience is very far away from from the who whoever is doing the late night show. So every time they react or they laugh, the laugh is coming from like far away, and it's not so good. Like, I feel like a big part of late night shows is the audience, and sometimes when the audience is so bad, I start to actually like wanna help the host, you know. I read one book where this this one girl was working in a she they would they would I and her friend they were living in New York and they were broke, and they would go to be like uh in an audience for sitcoms and stuff like that, and they would get paid$50 per day. This is what I think. Because they also had like a choir master who would tell them when to laugh, when to say ooh, when to so if there's things like this, then like why not get an actual like choir of an audience that has rehearsals and everything, and then pay them well, a livable wage, and then they become your audience, and that's like their job. That's like their permanent job. And they just get to dress in like different ways, and uh and then they're there. People will people will be like, why is the audience the same? But they will eventually get like people don't need to know. This should be something like for the late night hosts themselves, and then they they can have like a lot of them, and then they switch them around along all the late night hosts shows, and then we have good audiences. Actually, I don't think they can do that. Are they competing? I don't know, I don't think so. Okay, uh maybe if like if they're all like if someone is from CBS, CBS can have like their own and they can be used for like sitcoms and stuff, and they can be booked, something like that, and they can have like their own agent. They should do that because a bad audience ruins like a late night show. That's my take, or a sitcom. That's my take. Um, anyways, next, most tracks today aren't very useful. The main use is to tracks. I don't understand. Someone says K-pop Demon Hunters sucked and is not the masterpiece people think it is. I think it's a masterpiece, and if you really think of it, it has a deep message about guilt and love and uh so many more messages. So I would actually to I would actually like to disagree, even though, like, I don't know, like I don't know why I anyways. I I usually wouldn't read such kind of text when people are like shaming an art or something like that, but I had to say something about this. Okay, my hot take is that the people who complain about the price of living just don't wanna put in the hard work and are living outside of their means. Really? Really? This is what you're gonna say? Okay, this is a long take. Someone says, My hot take is that a lot of the cringe content we've seen in entertainment media in the last few years, particularly from has not been as motivated by a desire for profit or a genuine commitment to diversity as it has been by a desire to serve the American millionaire in a rook. Okay, what? First of all, I don't even want to go on reading this because it's getting political and it's getting uh conspiracy theory. It's getting very like uh what's the music they usually play in like the conspiracy theory? Anyways, it's getting there. Next, tech will be the downfall of humanity, and the last few generations are proving it. Um I agree to some percentage, but then I don't think there will be like a downfall, you know. I mean, there might for some time, but you know, people always get back up. Uh I d I have another hot take. I'm like, I think there will be a renaissance for the arts again, where like human art will take over again. Like people will start seeking out things that are actually made by humans and not AI and not like uh, you know, fabricated, overly commercialized capitalistic art. You understand? So yeah. Uh someone is like they should have an age limit for teaching. I I can't help but think of what motivated someone to say this. Do you think they have like an old teacher who talks very slowly? But those are the ones who know. Uh okay, next. Okay, someone is saying, ladies, if you was living like in squala bracket, aka living in like an absolute pig before you came into the picture, then suddenly expects you to keep everything clean. He wants a mom slash maid, not a wife. 100% agree. Because if you are living in a messy house, uh and then somebody comes and you want them to start doing everything for you. Uh yeah, you sounds like you're looking for something else. Sounds like you're looking for what you're looking for is not love and relationship, you're looking for something else. Uh yeah. I don't know why you said mom. Like, do people expect like their mums to do like clean like their rooms when they're old? Okay, uh, somebody says someone says, if you let your cat go outside, you're a bad person. Oh no, that's not true. Actually, in Tanzania, cats are always outside, they're always doing things outside. They come inside to eat and and maybe sleep, but most of the times they're outside. But I don't think it's a bad thing. What I don't agree with, and this is like a hot take, I don't agree with to some degree. I don't think cats belong on a leash. Every time I've seen somebody put a cat on a leash, the cat doesn't want to be on a leash. They're like resisting and they're like mad. So I don't I actually think cats do not belong on a leash. Someone says, I don't like when it gets so political. Someone says bedroom eyes really piss me off. They just do. I don't know why, but they are what is bedroom eyes? Do you know what is bedroom eyes? Do you know what is bedroom eyes?

SPEAKER_01

Bedroom eyes. I have no idea.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know what it is. Can I use your phone to Google?

SPEAKER_01

Because I don't wanna lose I don't wanna lose this part.

SPEAKER_00

Give me a minute to Google. Okay, okay, so we're gonna Google. Oh, can you help me change the yeah like this? Okay, bedroom eyes meaning. I don't wanna lose the page on Reddit. Okay, bedroom eyes. Bedroom eyes refers to a usually natural, sultry, or seductive gaze characterized by half-closed or heavy leaded eyes and dilated pupils signaling romantic or sexual interests. Okay, it's an it is a non-verbal, intimate, and often mesmerizing look intended to combine attraction or calm. Okay, so do people do this like in day-to-day life or only in the bedroom? It is often associated with romantic attraction and is a common term used in film and literature. Oh, let's let's look at some photos. So, this is bedroom eyes. No, no, yeah, this is what they say. So this person is saying that bedroom eyes really piss me off. They just do. I don't know why, but they annoy the deep out of me. I agree. I a hundred percent agree. I think some things just need to to like eyes speak even when you're not trying too much. You know, you don't have to like, I don't know. If somebody tries to do the bedroom eyes or whatever, so I don't agree. I think it also pisses me off. Yeah, so I think I agree. I agree with this person. It's like, I don't know. If it's like a natural thing that comes to you, great. But if you're actively trying to have bedroom eyes, you shouldn't. Uh someone says, someone says, you can't be a scientist and be religious. That combination in itself is an oxymoron. I actually disagree. I disagree. I disagree. You can be both, anyways. What we eat for lunch should be what we eat for breakfast, and most conventional breakfast foods shouldn't be eaten for anything besides dessert. No, I think a dessert should be sweet. I don't agree with this person. What maybe maybe if scientifically a dessert shouldn't be sweet? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. But I don't agree with this take at all. I think we are good the way we are. Someone says long distance relationships aren't that bad. You live in like the US, they live in the UK, and every six months you meet at some middle place and have a week of vacation together. You'd never get tired of the person and you'd be on vacation, so you'd always be happy together. Can't believe I'm saying this. I actually agree. That sounds like a good idea. You know what? If you're in a relationship, or if you're a married couple, or if you're with someone and you you feel like you're getting to a point where you're not appreciating each other, maybe try and do this if you have the means to do it. And like try it for like a year and then see how it works. I feel like it will help people appreciate each other more because the times that you are away from them, you you will start to notice their things. I mean, I think this will work if you're not on your phone. For some reason, I've I always like every time I put into account people's attention span. Because if you have a low attention span, you can't even notice the cute things that somebody is doing. Like, you know, when you're like, you know, you always do this, people don't notice that because what you get why they're on their phone and they have like a short attention span. So I I actually agree with this. I actually agree with this. This is nice, though. I I I I don't agree with the part that says so you'd always be happy together because you're on vacation. No, I think you just have a good time together because you're on vacation, but vacations don't really necessarily mean that like people are happy. Some people go on vacations and they're stressed, even though like the whole point of vacation is to relax, but like some people still like do that. Uh, okay, someone says lack doesn't exist because there is a mathematical or statistical equation for literally everything. I disagree, 100% disagree. But the lack part, I disagree with the with the part like that says I actually think lack is when preparation meets opportunity. I agree with that, but uh the the thing that's like there is statistical equation for everything. No, I disagree. I disagree. Uh someone else says, someone says, Not sure if this is a hot take. Why did my phone just go off? Oh, I really needed to read that take. I really needed to read that take, but you know what? Okay, guys, my phone died as I was recording. I don't know what happened, I don't know why I didn't check, but my phone died completely. And I was like, why did my phone go off? And because my phone died, I had to stop recording because I was using my phone's internet to record. I don't know why I'm going through all these troubles just to get an episode out. And you know what? I'm just gonna go ahead and say it. Uh, if we won't have an episode next week, it will be because I tried my level best and have not been able to find time and squeeze in time to record an episode, especially that I am out of town and I'm with people and I'm with friends. I need to prioritize time with friends and enjoy and do things and go places and see places. I'm trying so hard just to to do the just to put out an episode. And so if this will continue and I want to be able to put out an episode for next week, then I will see you when I'm back. But anyways, for now, I will go on. All my friends went out to get food and I remained. I was like, I'll get food once this episode is out and done with because I love you guys so much. So I really wanted to read this take. I don't know what it says, but it sounds interesting. It says, not sure if this is a hot take, but it's idiotic for people to think they can avoid people forever. It's okay to retreat into your own personal bubble when you need some amount of time to collect yourself and unwind. Oh, is this a sign? Why is this why is this kind of like talking to me to be like, Nick, you're in Budapest. Why are you recording an episode? You need time to unwind, you know, maybe. And then that's no way to live unless the circumstances somehow leave no other option. Okay, I no, no, like the only part that I think like I was saying, I think it's a sign is when if it's like the part that says unless you need time to like retreat, whatever. So I will start again because I feel like I lost you. Not sure if this is the hotel, but it's idiotic for people to think they can avoid people forever. It's okay to retreat into your own personal space bubble when you need some amount of time to collect yourself and unwind. That's no way to live unless the circumstances somehow leave no other option, like an apocalypse leaving one as the last human on earth. It's possible for everyone to find real friends as long as they never give up. Lord knows my hard work paid off. And if a loser like me can do it, anyone can, I guess. Uh, first of all, uh it was all going great until you said, and if a loser can like me can do it, and I understand you're trying to to come off as like humble, like motivate people, like it was really hard for me and I did it. But you should have just said, and if someone like me can do it, or like knowing me, and if I did that, you can do it. But like I don't think you should call yourself a loser. Negative self-talk is not good because what you say is what you become, and if if you've saying this, it means you've been saying this, and then that means you became a loser. So now I'm kind of like, oh, not really sure what you're saying. But I agree. I agree with the father that says it's possible for everyone to find real friends as long as they never give up. And it's true, nobody's meant to live in isolation. Humans are social creatures, we need to be social with each other. So I guess it's the good take mine as the negative self-talk. Someone else says, it is it's lazy writing when every hero series slash comic movie turns into turns to aliens. It's always huge death race that can destroy Earth. There is so much potential for, say, villain organizations or gangs, art threats instead of aliens that destroy half of the world. That is true. Bring in some renovation. How about we find out, like how about a movie where Earth finds out that that there's aliens and we try to threaten them? You know? Uh, this is a movie idea. Uh, how about some other thing apart from like the huge rays? So I totally agree with this person. I totally agree. I yeah, yeah, yeah. Someone says the villains in Ben 10 have the most plot armor, more than any character in the fiction verse. I have no idea, but uh seeing Ben 10, I was very young, and I actually think the villains used to be like these huge things with so many weapons, and I would be like, kinda doesn't make sense that Ben 10 is defeating them, but anyways, uh okay. Someone says that calculus is also basic math and should be part of the cocayam, so everyone should take it in high school. Uh huh. I I don't have much to say about this. I'd never liked math, and I'd I I've never studied calculus, actually. Maybe I did and I don't remember. I don't know. Someone says the phrase men used to go to war, which is used whenever a guy in present time does human being activities, doesn't make any sense. The men were the ones initiating war, young boys were the ones fighting them. Wow, this makes sense. I I yeah, they were obviously recruiting young men into wa. Yeah, this makes sense. And I don't like when people are like, men used to go to war. I'm like, what? It's like it would be like a video of somebody like being whimsical or like a guy doing like why? Why do we have to have all these boundaries? People like people need to do if something is harmless, let people do it. Why do you have to be like men used to go to wa by the way? Man used to go up to wa, by the way. Why do you have to be hateful? You know, like what if you don't have like, yeah, yeah. I'm sure I know. I definitely know. I definitely know there are people out there who are like, men used to go to wa by the way. I am like, I look at my life sometimes and I'm like, I'm sure there's there are people who do that and people who say that, but hey, I don't know you, especially now that I'm not on social media. I literally do not know you. I guarantee you, I it has never crossed my mind that you think that, and uh, it's okay. And so I'm I'm living in ignorance bliss. And yeah, I don't like every time I remind myself, like if I think of like, oh my god, what if people like might hate that I'm doing this? I'm like, I don't have the social media on my phone, and so I don't know you. I you are not in my own life. There is no part, there is no part of my day-to-day life where I will interact with you. You're late, a little bit late. You should have come those days when I used to be chronically online, but now you're a little bit late. Yeah, you're a little bit late. That's why I love an audio podcast. I love, I love that it's just my voice because it allows me to be in my own bubble, but also like make a podcast. Okay, someone says, This, okay, the title is I have a few not very hot takes. Someone says the first one is like look smarter. No, I'm not gonna read that. No, I won't read that. Not gonna read that. Someone says, watch how people ask for hot text, but nobody really wants to listen to your hot text. If your hot take doesn't conform to a standard, people get offended, downvote, and cry. I don't think I'm asking for hot takes. I am reacting to a hot to hot takes, right? Me immediately thinking if it's applying to me. Uh so everyone is back. I guess that means this is the end of this podcast. Thank you so much. I had a great time. I hope you enjoyed this episode. Bye. See you next week. Or maybe not, but we'll be back to the normal schedule. But for this week, there may or may not be another episode, and you'll only find out if you make it to the end. And I guess like that's somebody who needs to find out because they made it to the end. If you didn't make it to the end, then you can catch up on the other episode. I may or may not release an episode on Tuesday, I am not sure because it's yeah, bye, guys. How are you?
