Jared Freed
Hello and welcome to the J Train Podcast. This is Jay Train, Jared Freed. Coming. You live from Delray Beach, Florida. That's right. Every Tuesday is a ticked off Tuesday where you, the listener, write to me, the e. The, the emailer me, the comedian and podcaster Jared Freed, who's here every Tuesday for you. I am here for you to log your complaints with. You can log them. Log them now. Is that the word? All my words are mixed up. Let's, let's, let's restart. No, I could restart the show. I'm not. I'm going to. I'm going to restart myself. Welcome to the J Train Podcast. It's a ticked off Tuesday. I'm already ticked off at how I started this, so I'm in the mood to complain. That's what this show is. You write in your complaints and I complain with you. And there's no such thing as a complaint that's too small or you have it good. No, no, no, no, no. Today you have it bad. And I will find a way to agree with your complaint. I will find a way to find another little side road of your complaint that you didn't even think of. That's the beauty. This is mental health, people. This is about feeling good, scratching the itch. I here's how the show works. If you want your complaint read, the first way to get it read is join the Patreon. Patreon.com Jared Freed Every Friday you get Coffee with J Train, which is my personal diary. If you want to hear about my weekend in Delray beach and how I spent fourth of July, that's what last week's Coffee with J Train is. Now, if you then had a complaint, you comment on that episode and it gets read automatically on this show. Now people in the Patreon are using their membership. All four complaints today are Patreon complaints. Then if we didn't get any Patreon complaints, we go to the mailbag. Jtrain podcast gmail.com jtrain podcastmail.com so if you want your. If you, if you don't want to go Patreon route, you join. You just send it in and maybe we'll get to it. I can't make a promise now. I have my complaint that I'll do. And it's fourth of July related. And then I will go. I have two Fourth of July complaints. One, and then we'll do the ad. Then I'll do the four listener complaints that are from Patreon. Here's the thing. My first complaint is. And it's going down right now, but the people who complain about it, the people who complain about the people who take videos of the fireworks need to stop. It is not. You're. You're not on the forefront. That's what bothers me. They think they're on the, the front lines of culture. You're not. You're about a decade late. You're so late that it annoys me how early you think you are. The video technology has gotten better. Let's acknowledge the tech people have gotten better. The, the videos are better than they once were. The joke made sense when it was a grainy picture. Now, listen, you can tell the family member who's standing in front of the group, hey, sit down. No one wants to watch the fireworks on your cat, on your phone later tonight. Take one picture and get it done. Like, listen, when I'm on stage and someone has their phone up, I go take the picture. And then when they're taping, I go, it's not working. This isn't. What are you. What are you going to do with this video? What's the plan here? Tell me what you're going to do, Scorsese. Hey, Rob Reiner, you're going to make a rom com out of this video that you're doing. Hey, Steven Spielberg, what's the plan here with the video? Hey, Nora. Ephraim, what are you doing? Hey, I've run out of. I've run out of movie directors and creators. Hey, hey, guy who makes movie. I'm just saying it's fine to yell at a family member to say, we. We're at the point where your family member can go, oh, yeah, I'm the loser. You shouldn't be videotaping fireworks. There's no reason for this. We are past the point where you are our new age Mark Twain, who saw it all before everyone else, that, oh, my God, to tape the fireworks is stupid. No new news here. And you know how I know it's not new news? Because you're using a meme that's been recirculated for about a decade now. And listen, I made the joke. And you know why I made the joke? Because I was earlier than you. That's why I do this. That's why they pay me the big bucks. So that's my complaint. Anyone that I saw and I saw it leading up to the fourth of July. Oh, you're going to take a video. Yeah. You have an aunt who doesn't get it. Go talk to her, let her know she's fucking up. She is taking a video that no one wants to watch. She has a disease. She's addicted. She's addicted to her phone. She's addicted to taking videos that no one cares about. How about you have an intervention and help your aunt instead of sharing a meme where you think you're ahead of society here you're behind. Joke's been made. You're repeating as I take my sip of Coke Zero. Coke Zero. I'm going to say it right now. Here's a hot take. Coke Zero, top of the soda mountain. There isn't one soda that makes me happier to drink than a Coke Zero. Coke Zero is both thirst quenching and treat. Find me that and don't even, don't even look at me with Diet Coke. Don't even look at me with Diet Coke. Don't even look at me with a Pepsi product. Don't even look at me with a sprite. J train. Podcastmail.com I'm on the road, people. I, you know, I'm trying to judge up kind of the order of how we do things, the order of ops and, you know, to start quick with an email and a complaint. I'll do my second complaint and that the one before was the short one. This is more story. That is a complaint. I'm doing shows and I want you to come. Okay. I want you to bring friends. There will be no jokes about the person who takes a video of the, of the fireworks because that would make me a hack. Okay, if you're listening now, I'm coming to in. I'm coming to Bloomington, Indiana. Then I'm going to be in Brea, California. Spokane, Washington, Denver, Colorado, San Francisco, Providence, Kansas City, Richmond, D.C. milwaukee, Minnesota, Chicago, Durham, Charlotte, Fort Lauderdale, Royal Oak, Michigan, Columbus, Ohio, Orlando, Florida, San Diego and so on and so forth. Go to my website, jared free.com jared free.com that takes you through the new year. All right, here's my second complaint about fourth of July. I'm here in Delray Beach. I moved here for the summer. I'm loving it. That's. That's your preview into this week's Coffee with J Train. Because this week's Coffee with J Train, I haven't taped it yet, but it will be out by the time this comes out. It will be somewhat of a love letter to this town and to small towns in general. I'm. I'm enjoying the small town feel. Delray beach put together an event. They put together a fireworks display that was wonderful. I went, I had two friends here. Two of my closest friends came, stayed with me. We go to the beach, we got chairs set up, drink in hand. You would, some would say this is the American dream. This is what America is all about. Drink in hand. I'm gonna watch a big fucking explosion in the air and I'm gonna fist pump and clap for it. When it's done, I'm gonna clap as if. As if. Well, you're clapping for the fireworks person, which I've never met that person. I would love to meet someone who's like a fireworks choreographer. Like, that's gotta exist. But I love clapping at the end because you gotta appreciate what just got done. So you're going to do the most American. We're on the beach. The ocean, the light, the moon shining off the sea. This is what you. We. This is what we live for. To me, what you know. You see that? There's a meme again, newer than the meme about not taking pictures of the fireworks. There's a meme that's going around on Tick Tock right now where it's like, I forgot what this was all about. The Fourth of July reminds you what this is all about. Summertime, hot dogs, hamburgers, friends. The friends you want to be with. Not a lot of obligation on this holiday. I'm on the beach, got my two pals, we got a drink in hand. We're watching the fireworks go up. And the people. To me, when you watch fireworks, take it in. What is there to talk about? You know, the noises you should make. Clap Oohs and Oz. That's it. Claps. Ooze and Oz, the family behind us. It was as if they hadn't seen each other in six months. Hey, are you going to go to the the bank tomorrow and cash those checks? Mom, are you going to pick me up at baseball practice next week? Hey, remember that time that you guys were like, loud at the fireworks display and ruin everyone else's time? These people were talking as if we were in a crowded restaurant and they couldn't hear Each other. And you're trying to take in the fireworks. You're trying to, like, have a moment and review your year and think about your connection with your community and the sky and the stars and look and appreciate life. And this garbage pig family is behind us. Hey, you know what my favorite TV show is right now? Hey, have you guys seen the sketch on SNL when they do? And I'm like, oh, my God. And I turned to my friend, I was like, am I the only one being enraged by this? And he looked at me, he goes, no, this is actually crazy. This is wild. Like. And I said, it's as if they were catching up from, like, two years of not speaking. And I don't want to be the person during a fireworks display. A fireworks. And the problem is fireworks is not the opera. Like, I can't turn around, go, sh. Like, it's loud explosions in the sky. And the explosions aren't music. It's not. But I want the moment. I want the surrounding, the colors. I want to sit my drink and relax and appreciate. You know, listen, whatever you feel about the country right now, the 4th of July is meant to be hopeful. It's a mount. And that's what being in a democracy is all about. To me, the hope of getting better, improving. The hope of being the best, of. Of. Of getting to. You know, that's what America. To me, this is my personal view. I don't think it's a day to go. Look at how shitty the world is. It's a day to go. We can be better. We can do more. We can figure it out. This great puzzle called life. And behind me, hey, did you guys ever see Stepbrothers? Are you out of your fucking mind? And then on top of this, the family's yelling behind us. We're trying to watch the fireworks. All of a sudden, woman to my right, she's just sitting on a beach chair. She takes her phone and turns on God Bless America on Spotify, just starts playing God Bless America. Like, decided for the whole beach. I got the playlist. I'm going to play God Bless America. Listen, not a bad choice, but also not your decision to make. You're just going to go rogue and decide for the whole section of the beach that God Bless America. Bring God into this, get religious. I just couldn't believe the behavior that was going on. The lack of class, the lack of, like, enjoyment, the lack of thought of other people. Like, even when I walk in a room, hey, nice to meet you. I keep my voice lower. J train podcast gmail.com, every Tuesday. Ticked off Tuesday. I felt I feel better now. I've held this in for a, for a couple days now. It was two days ago. I mean, my God, I was so. And you want to turn. Hey, enough, enough. We're, we're trying to take in the fireworks because I just don't think I had a leg to stand on. I, I was even so insecure that I didn't want to say anything to my friends. I looked at my buddy, I, my two friends, I go, are they being loud? Like, is it just me? And they're like, no, this is like, actually crazy. Like, they were talking about everything but the fireworks. And that's the problem. There's really nothing to talk about with fireworks. It's just to be enjoyed. We have one sponsor. If they, you know, my thing with the sponsor, I'm not, I'm not a pusher. If they can help you use the promo code and get your free money.

Let's go to the listener complaints. I. You don't know how good I feel getting those complaints out. I hated that family. I couldn't stand them. And they did have young kids. So then you look at the parents, you go, what's the plan? I don't know. I don't know. I think that's why I'm even more angry about it. I don't know how you handle it. I don't know. I don't know if I would look at my kids and go, hey, hey, enough. Let people enjoy. I would. That's what I would say. Let people enjoy. That's how I would parent my kid. I. And I listen, you're saying, jared, you don't have kids. You're talking about hypothetical kids. I let people means let me enjoy. That means these parents are garbage too. They, they, they like screaming during their fireworks. God bless America. It was like, what, have we lost it? My ticked off Tuesday is about two classic ice creams that got worse with updates. I love this complaint. I haven't read this yet. I just love that there's a classic that's getting an update and we're mad about it. McFlurries. McDonald's changed the packaging and now the toppings aren't even mixed in. What? The sturdy cup square handled spoon and blending magic have been replaced with a flimsy lid and sad little spoon. I get the plastic reduction, but the experience has seriously declined. No, I couldn't agree more with you. I don't know what this new version looks like. I want to Google it. Um, because to me, the McFlurry New McFlurry packaging. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This isn't it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah. It's basically a Chinese food to go type of container with a spoon. Here's the problem. The McFlurry packaging. The beautiful part about it was that it kind of was reducing waste because the cup and the spoon was. Were part of what made the McFlurry. The whole idea of the McFlurry. See, and I'm looking at it. They're right. The problem is it looks like they put ice cream in a cup and they just poured some shit on it. And the McFlurry. The whole point was that you took the spoon and it attached to the machine and it swirled around and stirred in your treats. And now I'm looking at this, and it's like this looks like they just put the ice cream in and threw it on top of. And that's not a McFlurry. That's ice cream with toppings. McFlurry is. Treats abound. It is a treasure hunt. It is treats all the way through. This is more treat on top of treat. No, I want every bite to be different. This is one bite for the top layer and then a whole different bite for the second layer. There's no there. There is no differentiation of bite and. No, I'm with you. This is. This is a worse option. And for what? For what? We have to suffer. You think McDonald? This is doing a dent in our plastic issue. That and that spoon, that spoon that they used to use for McFlurry could be used again and again. That was a substantial spoon. Friendly's Watermelon Roll. Now, I. I didn't. They're. They're referring. Friendly's Watermelon Roll. Now I'm searching that. I'm not familiar with the Friendly's Watermelon Roll. Okay, what is it? I gotta do what is. Let's explain it first. Friendly's Watermelon Roll is a frozen dessert roll made with watermelon and lemon sherbet with chocolate chips to resemble watermelon seeds. It was a popular summertime treat for many, especially in the Northeast, where friendlies originated. In Friendlies is from western Massachusetts. Here the email writes, friendly's Watermelon Roll, once a Long island summer staple. Watermelon sherbet with chocolate chip seeds and lemon lime rind. It's been replaced by a smaller, pricier watermelon cake with thick icing. Why mess with perfection? Summertime equals ice cream and I just had to vent. Thanks for listening. No, I'm happy you wrote in. This is a perfect ticked off Tuesday. I'm trying to find if they've gone from sherbert to cake, then look at Friendly's. There's a Reddit thread called Friendly's watermelon roll travesty. Friendly's has ruined the watermelon roll. They now made into a sherbet cake. It's half the size and twice the price. Everyone's talking about it. Here's the thing. You can't go from a sherbert with chocolate chip to a sherbert with cake. A It's just to me, you have to create a new item. Friendlies seemingly has gotten lazy and thought you can't take an item and go, this is the new and improved and then totally change what the item is. You call it something else like let's get creative. To me, this is showing Friendly's lack of whimsy, lack of creativity. Once a Long island summer staple. I mean I would some feedback to this person. Not a Long island tree. That is not a Long island thing to me. I'm with you on both complaints though. You can't change. You can't have something that's been around for some odd number of years like the watermelon roll and then go, we're changing it up and then do different. It'd be one thing if they were like, hey, we're gonna get better sherbert. We're gonna get better, bigger. Here's how you can change your long t your long time food product. Bigger, cheaper, more delicious. So if Friendly's was like, hey, we're gonna do watermelon sherbet. We've changed the recipe and the chocolate chip seeds are even bigger now. And the lemon lime rind we've made even sweeter. Okay, but when you add icing, you've now tried to me they're trying to emulate an actual Long island staple, which is the Fudgy the whale. Fudgy the whale I think had some icing on it and it was always weird to me. Ice cream cake. I get it. I'll eat it. Not for me. J train podcast gmail.com J train podcast@gmail.com Here on a ticked off Tuesday, I got three, three more complaints. These are all from Patreon subscribers. So I encourage you sign up for the Patreon plus you get coffee with J Train. Coffee with J. I'm not gonna lie to you. Like I love doing tik Tok Tuesday. That is like therapy to me. Okay, my submission for ToT is people who move slowly at the gym. I lift weights and I move with intention between exercises to keep my heart rate up and to get done what I want to get done in a timely fashion. These people stroll through the gym with no sense of urgency walking in the middle of the aisle, so I have to move around them. Add to that those that sit on the bench or machine on their phone in between sets for far too long and it makes me want to scream. I'm with you. This is crazy. I can't believe, I don't know why this hasn't happened yet. I can't believe we do not have timers on top of every machine. Every bench, every machine should have a big red button. You hit the red button, five minutes goes off. You shouldn't be, Listen, I'll even double it. 10 minutes. You shouldn't be in a machine longer than 10 minutes. And if you are, you have to leave and hit the button again. If someone can hit the, if someone's waiting to hit that button, then you got to go, move on. I just need the clock there because. And this is why I've kind of moved towards classes exclusively. I will give a plug. I, I, I, I have joined a gym here in Delray beach that I absolutely, absolutely love. I, I'm telling you, I, I, I'm like, listen. Because when I do a workout, I want efficiency in and out. I want the sweat, I want to feel like I've done something and then I want to leave. I really don't care. My goals are fits in a T shirt. Well, that is my fitness goals. Put on a T shirt and not stretch it out. That's my fitness goal. My fitness goal is to eat like a normal person and wear a T shirt and have it not fit like a crop top. That's my fitness goal. And to me, if I go and do 50 minute workout and get a sweat, that's enough. You've done it, you've done it. And if I have to do more, kill me, end me, end me, it's over. So what you're talking about to me is pushing people towards, oh, did I even give the plug the lab go, look this gym up. It's a beautiful, brand new gym. Every morning they have classes. I go to the classes. Every morning. I went this morning, I did it. In, out, done. The trainers are good. They explain everything. They do a warm up, they do a cool down, out, in and out. And we all want this. We are, we want efficiency because we know we can get it. When we order the Uber, we want to walk out and get in the Uber as it's literally rolling by our house. We want the same from our gym experience. So to me, if I owned a gym and I don't have timers on all the machines, which is all of the gyms. You're part of the problem. You are the reason you're going extinct. You're part of the reason that people go, I'm doing the class. Half the reason to do a class. In and out. Efficient. I'm not sitting there. I'm on my phone. I'll start in 10 minutes. No, you got to start when the person starts. So to me, the gyms not putting the timers on the machines and I would have a big red button when you start. Hit the button, counts down from 10 minutes. Then you know, because then you. This, this person would move on to something else. Oh, oh, they're on the chest press. Okay. They're at eight minutes. I'll go do something else. I'll be back. J train podcast@gmail.com. j train podcastmail.com ticked off Tuesday. Sneak peek or a peek behind the curtain? I'm sorry, are we sneaking over a mountain to see something? I can't believe how many people get this wrong. So. Oh, sorry if this has been done before. No, it hasn't. So sneak peek. P E A K. This is a tough one to read. Is. Is the thing that you should be apologizing for, but I'll. I'll. I'll. I'll clean this up for you. They're saying peak. A peak. Taking a peek. A sneak peek or a peek behind the curtain is P E E K. Also, they didn't, like, spell it in their email. They spelled it wrong. Peak vs P E A K. I know it's right. P E K. But they should write in the email. Peak and peak are homophones. Homophones. Homophones, meaning they sound alike but have different meanings and spellings. Peak P E A K typically refers to the highest point of something, either literally like a mountain peak, or figuratively like peak of one's career. P E K means to take a quick, often furtive look at something. I don't even know what furtive means, but I'll believe it. Here's the thing. I mean, I wonder if this ticked off Tuesday relates to what I'm going to say right now. I. I'm annoyed. Listen, someone misspelling peak versus peak doesn't really bother me. All misspellings. And Grant, it bothers me more to not be a little bit more descriptive in my. In your email to me about the differences and why it annoys you, but I'm not going to go back at you. Here's what I'll say. There was a crossword puzzle recently And I couldn't get it. So I do the crossroads. I try to do the New York Times crosswords. I do it most days or I start it some days I get through it, some days I don't. Last week, I was really on it, and there was one clue, and I'm wondering if this person had the same problem. It was peekaboo. And it was. The answer was peekaboo. So, spoiler alert. If you're still doing one from last week, and when you do the whole crossword and you don't and you miss one letter, it says you haven't finished it. So then you have to go answer by answer, checking what you wrote and. And to see what. And it might be. It's a needle in a haystack. It might be one letter that you missed. And I'm like. So I'm going through it. I got the whole crossword. I'm like, everything's right. Everything's right. And then me, I'm the person this person's annoyed with because I had peak peekaboo instead of pe, P, E, K. I just. I've never thought of peekaboo spelled out. So is this person annoyed at me or someone like me who was like, I can't get the whole crossword. And then one of them, I had P, E, A, K. I'm this idiot that they're mad at. But, you know, I guess they're not mad at me because I'm not, like, putting out my crossword answers. Except now I am on a podcast with many listeners. That's right. I want to thank you for being a listener to the J Train podcast. Thank you for being a part of the jcu, the J Train cinematic universe. And, you know, my goal is always another person just like you. So here's what I'm going to say to you. If you're listening right now, we're about a half hour in. Send this. Send this episode in a text to someone. You're enjoying it. You're a half hour into a podcast. You're. You're here. And when you're here, you're family. So why don't you send this in a text to one person? That's my ask as I take a sip of the number one cola Coke. Zero. Last one. Ticked off. Tuesday. I need to lodge a formal complaint against the reckless use of condiments on burgers and sandwiches. Specifically mayo. Okay, I listen. Mayo, to me, is all about context. Mayo. If it's on there already, I'm like, thank God there's mayo. If I'm putting it on it, I'm, like, kind of grossed out. If it's in a ramekin, I'm kind of into it. If I hear it splooge like a, into a ramekin, I'm out. It is. I, I, honestly, mayo, to me is like, I am like, I am with mayo the way a woman is with a guy she was told to go out with. I am one thing away from being disgusted by it. So I get it on mayo. It is also the most delicious. It's like buttering your sandwich. I mean, it is delicious. Why must every special sauce be laced with mayo? And I do agree with you. Every spec. There's not a lot of creativity, but mayo. That's how delicious mayo is that we gave it a different name, aioli, to get people to not feel as disgusting. Basically drinking it with their french fries. Like, that's the thing. I envy the confidence of Europeans. They're just dipping fries into mayonnaise and calling it that. That takes confidence. Here we're dancing around, we're like, oh, no, give me the aioli. Yeah, you want mayonnaise, you fat pig. Why must every special sauce why must every special sauce be laced with mayo? After all these years, it's still mayo. But I think my real grievances with the last guy I dated who would forget to order my burger or sandwich with no sauce and proceeded to say is just a little. You won't even taste it. Nope, nope, nope. I'm with you. I, I, I got excited thinking that they were gonna, like, literally be like, I was told to go out with this guy. Like, take the, the metaphor I just used and, and, and use. I didn't read this. After all these years, it's still mad. But I think my real grievous is with the last guy I dated who would forget to order my burger or sandwich with no sauce and proceeded to say, it's just a little. You won't even taste it. First of all, my feedback to you is, why are you having this guy order your food? Like, are you doing this TikTok princess treatment? Why are you not ordering for yourself? That's my first question, but secondarily I will say, or primarily or initially, I don't know. Here's what I'm saying. That is not the correct answer to, you fucked up my order. Hey, I didn't get any mayo on my burger. No, no, no. It's just a little. No, no, no. I don't think you heard me. I didn't fucking get Mayonnaise on my burger. It makes me disgusted. Even a little will make me sick to my stomach and want to enforce me. Like, I don't understand. That's not in the, the options of responses if I mess up. Oh, no, it's just a little. No, no, no. I literally, hey, I asked for no co, No, I asked for no milk in my coffee. Oh, it's just a little milk. Oh, well, it's going to make me shit my brains out even if it's a little. So why don't you go back behind the counter and make me a new one? That's like, it's not even an option in the list of options. That's what annoys me. I'm with you. My taste buds go into Defcon 1 if there's even a hint of mayo. I just really don't like, I just really don't get why people don't take someone's dislike of condiments seriously. It's like I have to pretend to be allergic, but I don't want that sort of lie hanging over me. I, I have to pretend. I, I, it's like I have to pretend to be allergic, but I don't want that sort of lie hanging over me. I've done that. I used to say I was allergic to tuna fish because I hated it so much. And people go, really? You're allergic? And, and the more questions that came from it, the, the worse it got. It's not a good move. It ruins my meal and I love, I love food, so it ruins my day. Sincerely, a victim of wet, gross sandwiches. Here's the thing. Mayo on a sandwich isn't a bad thing. Not wanting mayo on a sandwich is also not a bad thing to, to give your complaint, like to spruce up your complaint. Your issue isn't with mayo because it exists. It's at the grocery store. It's not like an off brand thing. Like, one time I sent a woman a picture of my plate and had hummus on it. They're like, oh, what is that? I'm like, it's hummus. They're like, oh. And I'm like, hummus is, we're, we're past the point where hummus is like, like, like some sort of like weird thing. Like it's in every supermarket in every town in the country. So like you can't ew something that is just, it's not even like different. It's not like I'm saying, oh, you didn't have the, you know, you don't like, like, even like sardines is a people like sardines. So you can't ew. Who would do that? People do it. You have to acknowledge a world that exists. Your issue is that I believe, and maybe you're not even seeing it this way and I'm sorry to do this to you. I believe that you have an insecurity about not liking sauces on your sandwiches and people are taking care, taking advantage of that. I think you think you are seen as a child for not wanting a sauce on a sandwich. It is a childlike toddler like response to a, to, you know, to a sandwich I want nothing on. It is someone who lacks class, who lacks taste, adventure. You know, they're, they're not adventurous. So I think that's what you're self conscious about. And I would disagree with those people saying that about you. I don't think that. I think that you're saying, I have tried it. I have decided it is not for me. And that's why I think my advice to you is to change your languaging. Your languaging of like, I hate wet, gross sandwiches. No. Well, I think other people are seeing it as well, you haven't even tried it. What do you mean wet and gross? Every sandwich has sauce on it. Most have something on it. You, when you do that, you're kind of. I think people are coming back at you because they're going, because I think it's a crazy. I, I agree with you. I've gone back and forth with you. I, I'm sorry, I don't mean confuse the situation because I agree with you. It's just a little, you won't even taste it is a horrific response to you got my order wrong. That is not the answer. Now my brain goes in a direction of why would someone answer something so crazy to someone who said they got their order wrong? Well, when you say it ruins my day. Sincerely, a victim of wet, gross sandwiches. You have made a personality out of this. You have put your flag in the ground saying that sandwiches with sauces on them are gross. You're wrong. But when you say it that way, it sounds like you've never even tried these sandwiches and you're just making a blanket statement. I think you need to be more nuanced with how you talk about your like and dislike of certain options on the sandwich and that will help you. So I'm here hugging you, whispering to your ear, going, you're right to be upset. You're wrong and how you're handling it. That's my response to you because when I see a sandwich with sauce I don't go that's a wet gross sandwich. No one does that. You're doing that. You're trying to win this argument. You got to stop trying to win and you got to start owning your tastes like an adult. People who try to win, those are toddlers. It it's wet and gross. No, you're not going to convince me. I like mayonnaise on a sandwich, mayonnaise on a turkey sandwich with some cheese and on toasted bread. That may as well be heaven to me. So let's agree that we have two different opinions on this and and that your taste matters, my taste matters. And then people respect the respect that's given.
