Speaker 2: took an online personality test for her. Was supposed to
Speaker 2: determine which Star Wars character you were based on the
Speaker 2: responses to the questions of the online personality test What
Speaker 2: follow me here? This woman's name is Lorna Rook. She
Speaker 2: was working as a supervisor at a blood donation center
Speaker 2: in England in twenty twenty one when a handful of
Speaker 2: her co workers took an online personality test for fun,
Speaker 2: just some office fun. Laurna was on the phone and
Speaker 2: was too busy to take the test, so one of
Speaker 2: the co workers answered questions for Laurna to determine which
Speaker 2: Star Wars character she would be based on her personality,
Speaker 2: Darth Vader. Huh. So she was not amused by this,
Speaker 2: even though the test actually kind of spun being the
Speaker 2: Darth Vader character in a good way, saying that Darth
Speaker 2: Vader meant that you were a very focused individual who
Speaker 2: could bring teams together.
Speaker 3: But now you're a bitch, you manager, is what it meant.
Speaker 2: Lorna said it made her feel unpopular at work. She
Speaker 2: quit the next month filed a lawsuit claiming hostile work environment.

Speaker 3: was already in there. Just good night. I'll tell you
Speaker 3: man this day, but you don't do things like that.
Speaker 3: We used to joke around if you left your email open,
Speaker 3: like now we carry our computers around with us, but Pat,
Speaker 3: you have your computer over there, your email's open. We
Speaker 3: used to get on there and say and we would
Speaker 3: we would send an email to ten guys saying, hey,
Speaker 3: want to have a glass of wine, And it was
Speaker 3: the we did it with our boss. Our boss would
Speaker 3: do it.
Speaker 2: I know things.
Speaker 3: Oh my, honest, we could just open our mouths about
Speaker 3: certain things.
Speaker 4: It's just the book one day, the book. One day
Speaker 4: we will oh yeah, the book. He has this plan
Speaker 4: that he's gonna what do you call it? Cot, what
Speaker 4: do you I'm going to do the right I will
Speaker 4: be the writer of Well, it'll be mainly about you,
Speaker 4: but but obviously obviously part of you is our time together,
Speaker 4: and I've beard witness to many things. The word unspeakable
Speaker 4: comes to mind as a common denominator.
Speaker 3: So what it comes down to is, you're going to
Speaker 3: put out a book about this show. But he doesn't
Speaker 3: understand that if you're going to do that, you do
Speaker 3: it while you're still kind of on the air to
Speaker 3: promote it.
Speaker 2: We can't though, Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot because
Speaker 2: the best parts we anyway, I don't even want.
Speaker 3: To And no, we're not those guys that are going
Speaker 3: to write a book like, hey, look at us. You
Speaker 3: need to read a book about us, you know, like
Speaker 3: other people do. But now we're not doing that.
Speaker 2: It'll be a book that answers very many questions to
Speaker 2: get asked us on a still continual basis, uh huh
Speaker 2: about stuff. Well, let's leave it at that.
Speaker 3: Let's leave it at that and go with off of
Speaker 3: the Darth Vader thing. We have a dad joke slash
Speaker 3: Star Wars joke combination. Darth Vader goes into donut shopping
Speaker 3: orders and only one Kenobi or only one Canoli. Come on, man,
Speaker 3: dad jokes.
Speaker 2: Thank you for that.
Speaker 3: My wife called me out on a dad joke the
Speaker 3: other day.
Speaker 2: You gotta wear that like a badge hunter.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 3: We will be the told you I was walking through
Speaker 3: a Costco the other day. I was like looking for nuts.
Speaker 3: I'm going nuts, and I said, that was the coolest
Speaker 3: dad joke ever because I'm looking for nuts. Get it?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Uh huh. I have followed it up with a couple
Speaker 3: more singers passing Canoli, would you? Uh huh.
Speaker 2: We will be the first to admit that when the
Speaker 2: whole TikTok thing started to take off, we pushed back and.
Speaker 3: We're like, we're not We're not TikTok talking because it
Speaker 3: started out with people dancing.
Speaker 2: Silly little dance videos. But obviously TikTok is mushroomed into
Speaker 2: something much more and has so many legit purposes for
Speaker 2: its existence. This is not one of those what somebody
Speaker 2: do a new and concerning trend gaining traction on TikTok.
Speaker 2: Here's the gist of this deal. This is a spin
Speaker 2: on the old jam something in the electric outlet wow,
Speaker 2: Only that something is the ports on your chromebook in
Speaker 2: school age groups where kids are jamming all sorts of
Speaker 2: objects into their chromebooks in an effort to get them
Speaker 2: to catch fire and in some cases melt.
Speaker 3: Are these school distributed chromebooks?
Speaker 6: Why?
Speaker 5: It's more than just a trend. You know, it causes
Speaker 5: a lot of disruption.
Speaker 6: It became clear that the damage was done intentionally, that
Speaker 6: it wasn't a malfunctioning chromebook, but rather a student had
Speaker 6: intentionally done things to it that caused it to smoke
Speaker 6: and eventually melt.
Speaker 5: The batteries that are that are essentially catching on fire
Speaker 5: once they burned there, they're producing these this toxic smoke.
Speaker 3: Told you my big shock story. Glenyard's junior high science class.
Speaker 3: I don't want to say his last name because he
Speaker 3: probably still lives here. Gary m a buddy of mine,
Speaker 3: and he was driving in ninth grade. Smart genius guy.
Speaker 3: I wasn't like one of the you know, he's seventeen,
Speaker 3: and now.
Speaker 2: There was always like one or two that you went
Speaker 2: to school with who were freshmen. It got that driver's
Speaker 2: license before everybody else, just because where their birthday fell
Speaker 2: in the calendar.
Speaker 3: So he was driving to school early, had to park
Speaker 3: off campus his car keys. I grabbed him and jammed
Speaker 3: it in one of the outlets right to see what,
Speaker 3: just to get a reaction of the thing. Holy god,
Speaker 3: it was a science class that It was one of
Speaker 3: those eight thousand water you know, got the bunching burners exactly.
Speaker 3: I know nothing about electricity, So anybody who's tempercent electric
Speaker 3: bear with me, but pat, when I put that thing
Speaker 3: in there, the whole class turned around. I almost went
Speaker 3: through a window and I hit if you remember, and
Speaker 3: the old school buildings had those heaters mounted on.
Speaker 2: The wall, right, yeah, you know that four up the
Speaker 2: wall in their angle that thing.
Speaker 3: When I hit it, I must have got an extra
Speaker 3: jolt or something. I'd almost launched me through the window.
Speaker 3: I was. I haven't been the same since.
Speaker 2: That explained a lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's it. Gary Midair's keys.
Speaker 2: Short circuited in ninth grade.
Speaker 3: Gary, I hoped the car. He had a badass car.
Speaker 3: He could work on cars. Cool dude, man, you know,
Speaker 3: like very intelligent like I was until I stuck the
Speaker 3: key in there and then it just ended the intelligence street.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 2: Speaking of intelligence, I was gonna give this guy credit
Speaker 2: for being quite creative and intelligent for a way of
Speaker 2: dealing with squatters that had moved into one of his properties.
Speaker 3: But I mentioned his car key because I kind of
Speaker 3: ruined it and that was how he's getting home. Oh,
Speaker 3: it's screwed up the key itself. God, yeah, it gave
Speaker 3: me brain damage. What do you think it did to
Speaker 3: the key?
Speaker 2: I thought it would just conduct the electricity.
Speaker 3: It was a conducive. All right, So what do you
Speaker 3: do the squatters?
Speaker 2: Okay, this guy, Marco Velasquez, Chicago, he lives in the
Speaker 2: Chicago suburbs, has a home that's for sale. He's not
Speaker 2: living in it. It's for sale. Squatters moved in. Yeah,
Speaker 2: happens all the time. Unfortunately, he can't get him out.
Speaker 4: You can't.
Speaker 2: The laws in Illinois make it next to impossible to
Speaker 2: get squatters out within it without a long drawn out
Speaker 2: eagle process. That is going to cost you a lot
Speaker 2: of money. Well, thank god here in Florida, they changed that.
Speaker 2: Marco decided to move in with the squatters. There you go,
Speaker 2: him and some friends moved in. It didn't work. They
Speaker 2: didn't leave the Squire's I know that we bought this place.
Speaker 3: It's legit.
Speaker 2: I have this story on our Facebook page, Scumback Squatters.
Speaker 2: It wasn't the first time they'd done this. It's this
Speaker 2: way it turned. The woman who was running this whole
Speaker 2: thing here turns out she draws up fake you know,
Speaker 2: mortgage stuff and all this, and when the authorities go,
Speaker 2: we have a mortgage for this, and we bought this,
Speaker 2: and that starts any legal process that the actual homeowner
Speaker 2: might want to start. And in the meantime, they can't
Speaker 2: remove The police in that state cannot remove these people
Speaker 2: from the property, so they continue to live there.
Speaker 3: We saw it here forever until they finally corrected it
Speaker 3: and said if you're squat and you're gone.
Speaker 2: So that's this is where I thought, Okay, that's genius.
Speaker 2: Just move in with him, drive them right out of
Speaker 2: the house. Yeah, didn't work. So this is where I'm like, dude,
Speaker 2: you gotta be kidding. He ends up stroking them a
Speaker 2: forty three hundred dollars check in exchange for their keys.
Speaker 2: They started by demanding eight thousand dollars. You failed, Mark
Speaker 2: or whatever.
Speaker 3: Marco, you dummy, Marco, get the fumigation tent and and
Speaker 3: fume it. I'm telling you they're nothing, but those are cockroaches.
Speaker 3: I agree, And you're fumigating cockroaches. And once you sit
Speaker 3: down a court of law and say I had cockroaches
Speaker 3: in there, I had varmints. There were all kinds of varmints.
Speaker 3: The judge is gone on and give it probation. Problem.
Speaker 3: Maybe if even that community service.
Speaker 2: Maybe a maybe you would give you a medal
Speaker 4: Stay
