Hi, wild.
Wild card. I'm enjoying making that noise today. Do you think it's a good?
It does sound good.
Much better than my spitting. Remember when I was fake spitting?
Oh, yeah.
People did not like that.
Misophonia?
Yeah, I guess it was that or adjacent. Or just disgusted with spitting as you are. You've really got in my craw, I gotta mention.
I did. I did.
You did. And then I even thought of a counter argument that I believe in.
Okay, go for it.
But you're still in my craw. You hate spitting. That was on a previous fact check. Yes. So now what I remembered is we have had debates about boogers and your disgust with the notion of eating a booger because your body has made this to be repelled.
Uh-huh.
Remember that was your argument?
Yeah, I think I stand by that.
And there's bacteria and why would you eat that?
Yes. Oh.
Monica. Monica. Minimally, you got to say, okay, it's inconsistent.
What funny stories are shared in this episode?
Okay, but listen.
Okay.
My argument isn't then to put boogers all over the street where other people are walking or put them on people's shirts.
Maybe I should carry a wine silk or whatever. What are those little bags that you put wine in? Yeah.
To put your loogies in?
All I'm saying is if we agree that boogers should leave your body and not be put back in your body, why not the boogers that's coming from your... Get them out of there too.
I know. Look, I understand.
You got to meet me in the middle here.
I understand what you're saying, but you cannot spit. You can. You can spit it all over the street, but I'm going to be disgusted by you.
I know. And that's, you're right too. It's not like I enjoy seeing other people spit.
I got in your craw and I also got in the original person that I was talking about's craw. And it made its way back to him.
I wonder if you've had an impact on like many thousands of people that listen.
What if people start dropping dead because of the bacteria?
Because of their infections. Yeah. That their body told them to get out and spit into a bush, which no one cares about. Okay. This is wild card. We love wild card. And this was wild. It delivered on its.
There's some bad stuff in here.
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, but can people listen?
Not that last one.
Oh, fuck. Yeah, this is a sincere warning. There is a child that gets injured in the last story. Not fatally.
No, yeah. To be clear, the child is okay.
The child's totally okay. But I can imagine if you've had a similar experience that it would be a real bummer to hear. So, yeah, the last story does have a kid getting inadvertently injured there.
Yeah. And there's also some, there's a body thing that's like, oh, what body thing? Second story.
Oh, and you called it. Yeah. All right. Anyways, please enjoy wild card.
