10. Gadget Regret and Skewering Silly Purchases

Transcript

[George]

If there's one thing I've learned from talking to people about money, there's a lot of emotion around finances. We're talking denial, frustration, sadness, fear, rage, and side effects may include diarrhea. Pause. And today, I'm reacting to some videos that show exactly how these feelings play out in real life. And I'll be joined by my friend and fellow Ramsey personality, Jade Warshaw, who has a great resting react face. RRF for short. Trademark. Let's get into it. Jade, welcome.

[Jade Warshaw]

What's up, Geor?

[George]

We got you at the desk this time.

[Jade Warshaw]

I'm so excited.

[George]

Thanks for coming.

[Jade Warshaw]

It's less awkward than the couch.

[George]

Was it cause I'm awkward or the couch was awkward?

[Jade Warshaw]

I don't know. I'm tall and so my knees were kind of.

[George]

Are you trying to say I'm short?

[Jade Warshaw]

You said it.

[George]

You know what? Moving on. Listen, Jade, you may see a theme in the videos today because they are tied to some of the emotions you talk about in your new book, Word Up.

[Jade Warshaw]

All right.

[George]

I'm smart like that. He's a genius. And can you confirm that you have not seen the videos we're about to watch today?

[Jade Warshaw]

I do not do or spend much time on the Internet.

[George]

Wait, a brag? Are you saying I do spend a lot of time on the Internet?

[Jade Warshaw]

I'm just saying usually when people are like, oh, my gosh, have you seen that meme? Or have you seen that? Usually I've never seen it, so.

[George]

Okay, well, you're gonna learn some things today. You ready? I just did the calculations, and I.

[Gary]

Literally have enough money in my bank account to last me for the rest of my life.

[Jade Warshaw]

And all I have to do is die right now.

[Shanipoo]

O. Oh, that's good.

[George]

That's really good. Had me in the first half. Thank you, Shanipoo, for that great content. Okay, what emotion would we label this one as?

[Jade Warshaw]

Despair.

[George]

A lot of desperation here.

[Jade Warshaw]

This one is tough because he's talking about a really deep issue in a funny way. Like, if we're really being honest, it's pretty dark. He's just doing it in a funny way.

[George]

It's kind of like a financial nihilism. This is wild cynicism that's like, well, we're all going to die. Nothing is achievable. Who cares? Yeah, he's given up hope.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, I could see that. I personally, though, do you remember when you did Borrowed Future?

[George]

Yeah.

[Jade Warshaw]

And the guy had so much student loan debt, he was like, I feel like I'm worth more dead than alive.

[George]

Yes.

[Jade Warshaw]

That I Mean, like, that feeling of hopelessness I feel like is actually very real. I love that he showed it, but used comedy and levity to display that. But I do feel like people feel like it's hopeless and that there's no way to possibly get out. I mean, I remember when Sam and I had $280,000 of student loans. That was the feeling is, am I worth more? Like, my life insurance is literally would pay out more. You know, it's like, that's sad, but there's hope on the other side of that.

[George]

That's my mantra. If we don't laugh, we cry.

[Jade Warshaw]

Exactly.

[George]

And I think Shawnie poo has really taken that to heart.

[Jade Warshaw]

He made me laugh.

[George]

I wonder if he cried after the video was done. You ever laughed so hard you cry?

[Jade Warshaw]

I have. And have you noticed that happy tears are cold and sad tears are hot?

[George]

I've never even thought about that.

[Jade Warshaw]

Have you ever cried happy tears? I don't think I've ever. Ice cold.

[George]

I'm gonna be honest. I don't think I've been that happy.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh, you know, sorry, George.

[George]

I guess the birth of my kids, there may have been a tear. That was a happy tear. That would count, right? But I never, like, checked the temp. You know what I mean? I was like, you feel it?

[Jade Warshaw]

You feel it?

[George]

62 degrees.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh, man. Okay. So when my best friends paid off their debt, they came over to our house to hit the button on the last pa. I cried tears of joy for them, and they were ice cold. Or, like, when my team, like, won a championship. Cold tears.

[George]

But it's not because you have ice cold blood in the veins. Isn't that a thing people do? Isn't that a thing? Isn't that a basketball thing when you. Nobody watches sports in here but me. I'm tired of being the only person who watches sports.

[Jade Warshaw]

I watch NBA. George, calm down.

[George]

That was a big thing where they would, like, hold their arm and it was like ice cold veins.

[Jade Warshaw]

I feel.

[George]

Why am I teaching you?

[Jade Warshaw]

I. I don't know.

[George]

Maybe I watch too much wnba. Maybe that's why. All right, moving on to the next video.

[Kayla]

Almost first of the month. Time to pay my housing rent. Time to pay my TV rent. Time to pay my movie rent. Time to pay my phone rent. Time to pay my Internet rent. Time to pay my medical rent. Time to pay my phone rent. Time to pay my dog rent.

[George]

So good.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh, my gosh. This kind of makes me mad. I think this person. Well, you know, at first I was saying that it was she was feeling pity, and she likely is. But I'm also now feeling like this is kind of like an anger. Like everything out there is screwing me, and there's nothing I can do about it. So I'm angry. And instead of using my energy from my anger to actually do something about it, I'm just going to use that energy to post snarky videos. This is like, pity party. I don't like this. I'm like, you're an adult. You're an adult. Like, if you don't want to watch tv, don't watch tv. If you don't want a phone, don't have. Like, this is just life. And. And that feeling of, like, woe is me.

[George]

Is that because life costs money. It's stupid.

[Jade Warshaw]

Nothing should cost money, and everything is somebody else's fault. Like, they're just burdening me with their stuff. And I'm like, but you asked for this in your life.

[George]

That's true.

[Jade Warshaw]

What are you saying? Everything should be free. But this type of stuff, this is not getting you anywhere. This is. I mean, I don't know.

[George]

Got her 270,000 likes. Got her somewhere.

[Jade Warshaw]

But this is the same person who, if we post, like, really helpful advice, she's like, trolling in the comments going, oh, well, if I had a husband who made $200,000 a year, I'd be doing that, too.

[George]

If you invest.

[Jade Warshaw]

Must be nice.

[George]

$400. Must be nice to have $400.

[Jade Warshaw]

This is that person. And this person is just going to be in their mom's basement not getting ahead while the rest of us go, you know what? Such is life. I'm just gonna do what I can do, and I'm gonna keep rolling.

[Max]

Up next, I have a confession to make, and I'm not afraid to admit it. I ordered a 16 sandwich last night. It wasn't even a special sandwich or anything, just a regular deli sandwich. And for some reason, it cost $16. You might be thinking, why would you order a 16 sandwich when you have the exact materials to just make one at home? I know, I stopped. The worst part is it was $16 before tax, so it was really like a $26 sandwich. I keep telling myself I'm going to stop, but I can't. It's not my fault that every time I make a sandwich, it sucks. Then every time I order one, it tastes good. What's wrong with me? Anyway, here's to you. $16 sandwich.

[George]

Oh, that's beautiful.

[Jade Warshaw]

Weirdly enough, I actually have seen this video before. Of all the.

[George]

Well, you talk a lot about food.

[Jade Warshaw]

Maybe that's.

[George]

And how much people waste on doordash and eating out. And you're encouraging people you can learn how to make good food at home. That doesn't cost a lot of money.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, you can. That's absolutely true. I mean, he's caught up for certain in a cycle that's not working out for him. No wonder he's frustrated.

[George]

But he did it in a really great, sort of sad boy humor way.

[Jade Warshaw]

His face alone is.

[George]

I hope this guy goes. I hope he's going places. Max, the very good boy. He's doing okay for himself. I don't feel bad anymore. He can afford a $26 sandwich. So at the heart of this, he's feeling some guilt and shame. Number one, that he can't cook. Number two, that he spent $26 on a sandwich. When he knows better, he knows there's a more optimal way to be using his money.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, Yeah, I think. You know what? I would call this more like a regret. Like, regret's like that first level of like, dang it, like, why did I do that? And then I feel like it's guilt when other people suffer. Like, pretend this guy's married. And now because his spending is so bad, now it's affecting his wife, his kids, and now then it's like, oh, my gosh, I feel so guilty about what I did. Then it becomes shame when he's like, I'm just a horrible person. Like, you know, when he's the person who's. He takes on the identity of that. So that's kind of an interesting trail to walk down.

[George]

I wonder what the emotional journey is from when you, like, you go to the doordash app and you hit order. Like, there's probably a little dopamine.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh, 100%.

[George]

And then while. While you wait, it starts to set in. You're like, oh, gosh, what did I do?

[Jade Warshaw]

I think it sets you in.

[George]

And then dopamine comes back. When you get the food right, you.

[Jade Warshaw]

Take the first bite, you're like, wait, that was the first?

[George]

Yes. And then you finish it, and then you're sad again.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, emotional roller coaster for sure.

[George]

That's how it goes. But his caption is, I'll never buy a house anyway, so who cares? Oh, some. Some humor based cynicism here of just like, yolo. I can't really achieve any big goals, so let me just waste money a little bit at a time.

[Jade Warshaw]

I hate this, though, because it's just. I mean, obviously the more you fill Your brain, whatever you fill your brain with, you start to believe even, like, something that's funny. Like this. And it's supposed to make us laugh. If this is your account and this is what you're watching all day, it will get inside of you. Like that cynicism of meh. I can never happen. Yeah, yeah.

[George]

You gotta be careful on the flip side. I love this comment here. This is super funny to me, as every time I make a sandwich at home, my husband says, you just made a $16 sandwich.

[Jade Warshaw]

Facts.

[George]

Flip the script.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah.

[George]

That's impressive.

[Jade Warshaw]

That's my husband. At night, I'm usually the one that cooks. And he almost always puts a price tag, like at a restaurant. Jade, at a restaurant, you could charge $27 for that.

[George]

Wow. He's hyping you up.

[Jade Warshaw]

Well, he's telling the truth.

[George]

Find you a hype man like Sam Warshaw. Sometimes I don't know why it's. I call Sam just to hype me up.

[Jade Warshaw]

Do you?

[George]

Yeah. Like, bro, that's a $28 grilled cheese you just made. Gluten free bread. That'll cost you. Let's move on, shall we?

[Shanipoo]

Yeah.

[Kayla]

Today is one of those days.

[Jade Warshaw]

I am a lot in debt, And I don't make enough money for me.

[Kayla]

To be in this much debt.

[George]

Real talk, real talk from Kayla over here. That silence said more than her words did. You felt that silence? Mm. Do you remember feeling that way when you were, you know, half a million dollar in debt, not making enough? She said, I don't make enough money to be in this much debt.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, 100%. I was hoping she was gonna tell us what her income was, but, I mean, I. When Sam and I, we had 460,000, and when we figured out the fact that we needed to pay off our debt, we were making 30,000. So that is a real moment when.

[George]

You finally do some of the math and look at the reality and you're like, the math is not mathing. And now I feel hopeless.

[Jade Warshaw]

I stopped midway through on the math because I was like, this is. If I see this full number today, I will give up.

[George]

And I remember it's too overwhelming.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah. Like we were going through a workbook, total money makeover, and I stopped. Cause it was like, too much. And it wasn't until later that I went back and filled it all in and realized how much it was. And even though we tell people, like, lay out all your numbers. If I had laid out the numbers 100%, we would have given up. We would have just been like, Forget it. It's impossible.

[George]

Yeah. And there's a lot of fear here where she's realizing, will I ever get out of this? That's really the question she's asking. Or even deciding I'll never get out of this.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah. Yeah. The fear is, can anything work for me? Is there any hope?

[George]

That's a palpable feeling. So thank you for sharing that. All right, moving on.

[Shanipoo]

No, because, like, it's really getting to a point. It's really getting to a point. Every time you leave your house, $50, pay by purchase. Payment, payment, payment. Gotta buy books, gotta pay rent. You look, you look up. You out of toothpaste, the next day you go get toothpaste. You out of soap, you go buy soap. Now you out of deodorant, you looked at it, your gas tank, and you only have five miles left. Oh, the first is Monday. The first is Monday. It was just the first. It was just the first. He got himself to come down and hand me 30 bands right now. Like, this life. And then, and then, and then, and then it wanted to do all of this when we. When. When I become the adult, when I'm a grown up. Because I could have sworn back when I was 12, my mama was buying houses for $6. Like grandma. Them paid 50 cents for their house, their down payment.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh, wow. My dog. My dog is Lish. My dog. I love it.

[George]

First comment, valid crash out. I feel you, Mom.

[Jade Warshaw]

Honestly, honestly, listen, 100%. She never lied. There is no lies.

[George]

No lies told zero lies. She ate no crumbs. I think they're still saying that.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah.

[George]

I love it. Yeah. There's a lot of truth to that. It feels like it's one thing after another, and you're just reacting to all the things life's throwing at you. And it feels so hard to get above that and become proactive, to be like, hmm, we are about to run out of toothpaste and deodorant. Let me go ahead. And it just feels like you do one thing, and there's another thing to do, another thing to do, and then your gas tank's empty, and then the H Vac goes out, and then your kid's sick. Like, how do you deal with that when it comes to money?

[Jade Warshaw]

I mean, she's clearly angry. Like, she's clearly mad about it. And I get it. I think there's a lot to be mad about. The cost of living is outrageous, George. You and I know that. Inflation's crazy, real estate's crazy. She mentioned that. Obviously, Wages aren't keeping up. So there is a lot of external factors out there that people have the right to be angry at. But again, I think there's a moment and I even talk about this in my book. There's a moment to do exactly what she's doing, which is just like going crazy.

[George]

That's the I've had it moment.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, that's the I've had it. That's the like shaking your fist at the heavens.

[George]

She said she wants God to come down and give her 30 bands. I don't know how much a band is because I am not.

[Jade Warshaw]

I think It's a grand.

[George]

$30,000?

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah. Feels like a lot. Is that right? It's $1,000, right? A band? Yeah.

[George]

It's asking for a lot. And a lump sum from God.

[Jade Warshaw]

Listen, that 30,000, that's probably just her car note alone. Like, that's just probably her car alone. That's not even her student loans. That's not even her credit card sunroof.

[George]

It's a pretty nice car if it has a sunroof.

[Shanipoo]

Just saying.

[George]

You know, something I get emotional about is when banks pretend to help you while charging you fees and keeping you broke and selling you debt. Big banks love it when you carry a balance and pay interest because it makes them rich. So what's the alternative? Try out Fairwinds Credit Union, one of the sponsors of today's video. Unlike other banks, they're not trying to trap you in debt. They're owned by their shareholders, not by Wall Street. And right now, you can open a smart bundle with Fairwinds, which includes a no fee checking account and a high yield savings account so your money actually grows instead of dwindles. Bottom line, you need to bank with someone that works for you, not the other way around. So go to Fairwinds.org Ramsey to open your Smart bundle today or use the link in the description below. Before we jump back into all this talk about money emotions, here's one emotion I don't want you to feel. Panic. That's the feeling you get when you realize how much of your personal info is floating around online. And it's why I use Delete Me, another sponsor of today's video. They track down your data on hundreds of sketchy data broker sites and they get it removed, something that would take forever to do on your own. They even send you reports showing exactly how much time they saved you and where they removed your info from. So if you want to feel more peace and less panic when it comes to your digital privacy, head to joindeleteme.com George for 20% off their annual plans or click the link below. All right, let's continue on this roller coaster of emotion.

[Unknown Instagram User]

I'm financially at a point where I understand why people commit fraud. Okay, like, I get it now. I'm not saying I'm going to do it, but I get it because I work over 40 hours a week and somehow still can't afford to add guacamole to my order. Meanwhile, some dude in Miami who can barely read books without pictures in them, you know, just bought a yacht with a fake LLC and good wi fi. All right, I'm looking at my paycheck like, you know, taxes, bills, rent. Cool. I guess I'll just live off hope and leftovers from when I visit my mother's house.

[Jade Warshaw]

All right?

[Unknown Instagram User]

And then I see someone on Instagram in Bora Bora with no job history and three Rolexes. So at this point, crime doesn't look so bad. Okay, honestly, if you expect me to stay ethical While eggs are $6 a carton, you're asking a lot out of me, okay? I shouldn't have to choose between paying rent and having teeth. All right, look, it's society's fault. The government takes half my check, the landlord takes the other half, and Netflix still wants $15.

[George]

Okay?

[Unknown Instagram User]

So, yeah, fraud is starting to look like self care. All right, so I get it. Fraud is wrong. But so is making me pay $300 a month to park on the street in front of my house.

[George]

Oh, that's good. Very relatable. I like his style. He's got some reasons.

[Jade Warshaw]

He's funny. Yeah, he's funny.

[George]

He's living off hope and leftovers. He's saying, well, the government takes half my money. The landlord takes the other half. His life's out of whack if he's paying a 50% tax rate and half of his income, take home pay is going to rent. But I do agree that 300 bucks for parking in a street does feel like highway robbery.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah, that's a lot. That's a lot.

[George]

That's big city living.

[Jade Warshaw]

I was gonna say he's living in a city. Clearly, choices. Yeah, I mean, again, I'm just seeing a lot of, like this pointing out. There's a lot of pointing out. There's a lot of comparison. I'm looking at this person's life, this person's life, this person's life, and it's just kind of. It's an, I deserve. I deserve better. I deserve what he has. He doesn't Deserve what he has. Do I really deserve this? Like, it's all of that.

[George]

Well, this comment really sums it up. I can't afford to be poor. Being poor is expensive. That's a true statement.

[Jade Warshaw]

Absolutely. Being poor is expensive.

[George]

Like, everything costs more.

[Jade Warshaw]

Everything costs more. And you have the late fees and you have.

[George]

You're doing things out of desperation and struggle. You can't get ahead of things. You can't do maintenance and you can't get proper high quality goods. So you're just always just trying to scrape by to get to the. The next thing. To get to the next.

[Jade Warshaw]

And if you're a person who borrows money, you're borrowing at a higher rate. Like, everything is more expensive.

[George]

But it is true. There's a. Also, the other side that he's talking about is this weird flex where you're like, what do these people do that are living these crazy high lifestyles? And here's an idea that are probably criminals.

[Jade Warshaw]

I mean, I guess, but how about asking, like, why not ask questions for folks? Like, the way I grew up, it's like, if you see somebody who's wearing a suit and it looks like they're going to a job and it looks like they're making money, ask them what they do. Why not that instead of then going home and being like, what are. People are doing this? And this guy's got two Rolexes. I'm like, man, just be like, hey, what do you do for a living? What degree did you need to get that? Who helped you with your business plan? Like, can we try that?

[George]

It's a good word. Good word. As we move through, let's see if we can find some acceptance.

[Jade Warshaw]

All right.

[George]

Being financially comfortable is enough for me. I don't have to be the richest. I just want to always be able to eat what I want, go where I want, pay my bills on time and live a good life. There's some acceptance there. She's going, I don't need the most. Yeah, I just want to be able to survive. Plus some. Okay, now live a good life. That's a big question mark. What that means go where I want. Is that Bora Bora or is that to work? You know, we need some more details here.

[Jade Warshaw]

Right, right, right.

[George]

Eat what I want. Is that fine dining or is it what's in your hand? Which is the opposite of fine dining?

[Jade Warshaw]

I mean, I think she's saying she's okay with her life as it is. Like, she's all right with her income. She's all right with what her Income affords her. I think that's great. You know, like, we say it all the time. Depending on what you sign up to do in life, you might be. It might mean you have to be okay with, like, the Camry lifestyle. Like, I always drive a 10 year old Camry. That's fine. Great. Love that.

[George]

Do you guys want her eating McDonald's?

[Jade Warshaw]

I mean, from a gut standpoint. Yes. I want her from a microbiome.

[George]

Well, it's just funny seeing it. Live a good life. And then right below that is her eating what I think is going to destroy her small intestines 100%.

[Jade Warshaw]

I think she's just like, hey, I'm content. I am so content. And I'm not mad at that. I'm not mad at that one bit.

[George]

What do you feel about people eating in their cars? Is there a certain level of sadness to it? Like a mall food court? You know, you ever just look at a mall food court and go, this is sad. This is not what the Lord intended.

[Jade Warshaw]

If I see somebody eating alone in their car and they've like, they're not where the other cars are parked, but.

[George]

They'Re kind of like they're intentionally trying to escape.

[Jade Warshaw]

Something's happened.

[George]

Yeah.

[Jade Warshaw]

Something has taken place because, like, good for them.

[George]

They need a little break. You know what I mean? But then part of me is, like, sad for them.

[Jade Warshaw]

Yeah. Oh, and if you, like, just stick a head in the window to smell the smell. It's not good.

[George]

Yeah, it's not good. I can tell a lot about you.

[Jade Warshaw]

Windows up. You're eating a burger in your car with the windows up.

[George]

If you have, like, multiple days of fast food trash in your backseat, seek counseling.

[Jade Warshaw]

Is your car clean?

[George]

Yes. If I leave. This is my. My wife loves to leave me goodies and, you know, trash. When every time I get in my car and she was driving it, I'm like, cool. Who knows how old this is? Appreciate the rappers. When I leave my car, everything comes with me.

[Jade Warshaw]

I don't really eat in my car. I drink in my car. Coffee.

[George]

That's risky. All right, Jade, as is tradition, producer Alex has given me a surprise video that may or may not be helpful to us or society.

[Jade Warshaw]

Got you.

[George]

We're gonna watch it. But first, I'm so excited because as of the release of this episode, you have released your newest book, what no One Tells yous About Money.

[Jade Warshaw]

This book is truly for people who, like, kind of like the video that we watched earlier where the girl, she had tears in her eyes, just didn't Know if she was gonna be able to make it. This is for that person, because I know how that feels. This is for the person who's tried and given up. This is for the person who's wondered if they need to divorce their spouse because their spouse is tripping. This is the person who is so angry at the system because they did everything right. They took out the student loans, they got the car, they bought the house. Life is still not lifing right. This is for that person.

[George]

I love it. Well, we'll be sure to put a link to this book in the description. Go get a copy. It will help you through this emotional rollercoaster that is life and finances. So really proud of you. This is a fantastic read. Here we go. Man quickly realizes $80,000 humanoid robot wasn't worth.

[Shanipoo]

Oh, what are you doing?

[Gary]

That's my mirror. What are you doing?

[George]

Just froze the mirror.

[Gary]

One of your units just ran into my mirror and is causing damage.

[Jade Warshaw]

Is this fake?

[Gary]

It's not gonna work.

[George]

Oh.

[Gary]

Oh, my God.

[Shanipoo]

Oh, my gosh.

[Gary]

My wall is slightly damaged. The robot is going rogue. Let's say that I'm an 8 year old and it's just me and Terminator 12,000 in here. Would I be able to get away from it?

[Jade Warshaw]

No.

[Gary]

Does it see me?

[George]

It's looking right at you, Gary.

[Shanipoo]

Oh, my gosh.

[Gary]

Testing the robot in residential applications to see if it's safe.

[George]

Is so frightening. Whoa.

[Jade Warshaw]

This is making me sick to my stomach. This is.

[George]

Cook me a meal.

[Gary]

I need protein. Needs to be healthy. It's a gas stove.

[George]

Be careful. No, don't let it cook. Don't let it cook. Don't let it cook.

[Jade Warshaw]

Stupid idiot.

[Gary]

All right, cook a meal. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's a wave.

[Shanipoo]

It's like a child.

[Jade Warshaw]

A weird.

[George]

Gonna start a house fire in the meal.

[Jade Warshaw]

I'm gonna.

[Gary]

I'm gonna go out in here and play Fortnite.

[Jade Warshaw]

Okay.

[George]

Oh, no, don't dump it. Oh, that's hot, that's hot, that's hot.

[Shanipoo]

All I do is clean up after you, Daddy. Shut it off.

[George]

Somebody shut it off. Oh, my goodness. Now we're gonna do the burglary test. Oh, get back.

[Gary]

I'm very curious. If the robot can bust through the door in my house, there's no way.

[George]

He has a landlord. There's no way. Change your mind again. Genuinely.

[Gary]

If this is a robot or human, I'm actually putting way more money on the robot.

[Max]

Coming through.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh, my gosh.

[George]

Break it in. Oh, right through.

[Shanipoo]

Oh, my gosh.

[Jade Warshaw]

That this is so much anxiety, so disturbing.

[George]

Oh my gosh. It's like living with the most powerful toddler of all time.

[Jade Warshaw]

The way it walks makes me sick to my stomach. Like, the way it, like, it's got like, Annabelle energy. I do not like it.

[George]

I would unleash this on my worst enemy, but I don't want it in my own home. Personally.

[Jade Warshaw]

There's something really.

[George]

Is that real? That can't be real. And there's no way that this guy is renting.

[Jade Warshaw]

I don't know what he's doing. I don't know.

[George]

He's going to jail. He's going to jail.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh my gosh.

[George]

Send the robot with it. Okay, that's enough brain rot for one day.

[Jade Warshaw]

Oh my God. I will never.
