You were like when I seen 8 00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:26.160 your text, I was like, oh, oh, either either this 9 00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:27.879 is an audio clip that he wants me to get 10 00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:31.440 or they the something crazy going on. But the Queen 11 00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:34.759 Ashley today doing something she rarely does, and I know 12 00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:37.439 he probably took her forever to make this decision. Yeah, 13 00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:39.600 but she called out sick today. She did the only 14 00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:41.840 thing that I noted that she well yesterday. It started 15 00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:43.679 with her saying, at her stomach and I feel well, 16 00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:45.280 but it was something minor, not anything that I would 17 00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.560 think would be an issue. This morning, I guess she 18 00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:49.399 said like she has a stomach bug or something and 19 00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.799 she's not feeling well.

Obviously things are happening. So but yeah, 24 00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:06.439 but the cretor is out today. Man, something's going on, 25 00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:08.519 stomach bug.

I didn't even know 55 00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:31.120 that this was a conversation. I had no idea that 56 00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:33.879 people were chatting about this online, that this was trending 57 00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:36.719 and this is a big thing. But I guess there's 58 00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:44.240 this new rule that on a kid's birthday that everybody 59 00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:47.719 at the party has to get a gift so that 60 00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:49.520 nobody feels bad. 61 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:52.039 Usually what happens is that you leave the party with 62 00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:53.960 like a party gift, like a like a little bad 63 00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:56.479 with a bunch of yes, fine, they do it. 64 00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:59.319 I've seen that, right, like a little I've seen that 65 00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.319 I did it at my wedding. You know, at weddings 66 00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:02.680 they do that. They might give you like a little 67 00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.800 but it's the one kid's birthday. Like that kid's gonna 68 00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:10.520 get the gifts. I don't happen, but. 69 00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:13.240 That kid's gonna get the best gift, probably like all 70 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.240 the present. But then you leave like a little bag 71 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:16.560 would like or something. 72 00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:19.800 Yes, yeah, okay, so people do party favors. 73 00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:23.319 It's a birthday party. Those kids who are gonna leave 74 00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:25.319 with the gifts come with the gifts, don't they. Yes, 75 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:29.159 but then they're given gifts to leave away with. Yes, yes, yes, 76 00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:32.719 you're giving a party changing gifts pretty much, you give 77 00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:34.919 it a party favor. I'm spending all this money for 78 00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:35.280 the party. 79 00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:35.639 Anyway. 80 00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:39.199 Well, this, this whole conversation started because wait, no. 81 00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:42.759 Wait for and you're not ready. No, you're not You're 82 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:43.680 not ready for this. 83 00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.080 So just to set the scene here, this woman went 84 00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:50.319 viral because she had her daughter's birthday at Build a Bear. 85 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:52.400 We all know what build a Bear is, right, it's 86 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.800 a store in the mall. You go, you stuff the animal, 87 00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:56.719 you dress it, you pick it out. Whatever. 88 00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:01.599 I will let her explain her thought process. But again, 89 00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.520 her daughter's birthday party at builde Bear. 90 00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:06.719 The other moms are mad at me at school and 91 00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:10.479 said they won't be bringing their child to my child's 92 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:13.800 birthday party next year. So this year, we had a 93 00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:18.040 birthday party at builde Bear for my daughter and everyone 94 00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.600 had a thirty five dollars limit on my dime, and 95 00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:25.920 everyone built their bears and it was really cute and fun, 96 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:28.720 and I thought it was a really great idea. Some 97 00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.160 moms decided to spend extra on accessories out of their 98 00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:34.920 own pocket, which was completely their choice, and I thought 99 00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.040 they were being really sweet and thoughtful. So after we 100 00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.720 checked out at Bildebear, I said, all right, everyone like 101 00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.639 turning your bear to my daughter. I don't want to 102 00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:46.279 save her name on here, and some of the moms 103 00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:49.079 started acting really weird. Well, we went back to our 104 00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.959 house for cake and the rest of the party, and 105 00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.199 one of the moms had the audacity to come up 106 00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:57.959 to me and say, you know, I was under the 107 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.120 impression that the bears we built were for our own daughters. 108 00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:04.160 And I'm like, it's a birthday party for my daughter. 109 00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.639 Why would you build a bear for yourself for my 110 00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:08.800 daughter's birthday? 111 00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:10.199 Like if it was my. 112 00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:14.000 Birthday and we went to one of those like glazed 113 00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:18.000 under fire places, like some of my friends would probably 114 00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:20.399 give me what they made, Like if we go to 115 00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:22.759 a wine bar for my birthday party as an adult, 116 00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:26.079 like my friends like, buy me a glass of wine? 117 00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:28.199 Like I don't know, Like if you're a guy with 118 00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:30.519 your buddies at the bar, don people buy you around 119 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:34.800 or something. So the mom that approached me left and 120 00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:37.240 then shortly after the rest of the parents just wrapped 121 00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:39.600 it up, and I guess decided my daughter's birthday was over. 122 00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:42.959 And now they're basically saying, none of their kids are 123 00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:45.240 coming to my daughter's birthday next year. 124 00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:46.720 What do you think, because I. 125 00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:50.360 Think you're terrible, is what I just just as. 126 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.399 Okay, So they go to build a bear with these 127 00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:56.800 little kids, all right, the little kids make bears. 128 00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:00.720 They think they are making the bears for them cause. 129 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.399 They're picking, Oh, I want that Hello Kitty bear, and 130 00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:05.079 I want to put her in that dress, and she's 131 00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:07.519 gonna hold that bag. Then they get back to the 132 00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:09.959 house for cake and ice cream, and the woman goes 133 00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:11.279 give me the bear. 134 00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.120 Yeah no, what do you what do you mean? 135 00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:16.399 Do you like she picked out all of her favorite things? 136 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:16.800 What do you mean? 137 00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:17.079 Now? 138 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:20.879 Mind you, she probably thought that because she was putting 139 00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:23.240 up the thirty five per bear. That's exactly what it was, 140 00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:28.680 so it should have been discussed prior to Hey, if 141 00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.279 this is the way she want it now, mind you, 142 00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:30.680 I bet you have. 143 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:31.680 The people wouldn't have come. 144 00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:32.560 I would not have gone. 145 00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:36.120 It's weird, but you can't how am I supposed to 146 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:38.120 explain to my little kid who just built a bear 147 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:40.199 that that that's not their bear. 148 00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:42.120 It's weird. 149 00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:45.120 It's very weird. It's very selfish too, because I think 150 00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:46.920 this lady thinks that her kid is the center of 151 00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:48.879 the universe, and that's the way she's raised me. 152 00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:49.720 On this day. 153 00:06:49.800 --> 00:06:52.560 He is. Yeah, but it's also not above because all 154 00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:54.560 these young kids took the time to go to the party, 155 00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:56.279 do all these things things, go back to the house 156 00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:56.759 for ice. 157 00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:58.959 Cream, let me play Devil's Agogate. But it's my party 158 00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:01.519 that I put together. I went and got the location, 159 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:04.639 I went and spent the money for every So you're 160 00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:06.839 not you're just bringing your kid along. We're having a 161 00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:09.720 Kumbaya moment with my kids. I still don't get the 162 00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:11.800 part where I'm leaving the bed with you because we 163 00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:13.439 built it. I think I should just take it home, 164 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:16.160 because again, it was a community thing, right. But I 165 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.959 can understand how theory that I spend all this money 166 00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:21.079 for everybody to build a bed, and all the bed 167 00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:21.639 stayed with me. 168 00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:24.079 I'm going to just say this, and people might think 169 00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:24.879 this is crazy. 170 00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:29.240 If I'm having a birthday party for Layla at Build 171 00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.480 a Bear, I'm not going to invite a lot of people, 172 00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:34.560 maybe five, yes, and I'm they can pick out whatever 173 00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:37.360 bear they want, but not covering the costs because it's 174 00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:39.360 a party. And at Build a Bear, and that's what 175 00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:41.040 you do because there's kids and it suck you, So 176 00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:42.240 don't invite she invite. 177 00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:44.480 Like nine people. Don't invite that many. Cut it down. 178 00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:46.120 Don't invite that many kids. 179 00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:49.720 You can't have it at that location and then attack 180 00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:52.120 them to take their bears. 181 00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:55.040 And what are you to do with that many bears? 182 00:07:56.360 --> 00:07:58.480 That doesn't make sense. It was weird, like you could 183 00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.319 take them to any other situation painting something. The kids 184 00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:05.879 are gonna leave with whatever they created. Why as with you? 185 00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:06.480 That's weird. 186 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:07.439 Not even a party. 187 00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:09.000 But I do a lot of play dates with my 188 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:12.279 friend Courtney, who lives in my neighborhood in Marshfield. 189 00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:16.439 She's she puts my mom into shame. She's so good 190 00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.279 about like I'm so thoughtful with the kids. 191 00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.439 Every time we go over there, she's gone to like 192 00:08:20.439 --> 00:08:22.360 the dollar store and bought a bunch of stuff for 193 00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:24.240 them to do crafts and stuff. And I always in 194 00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:28.160 my head, I'm like, damn, never asks me for a dollar. 195 00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:28.720 You know what I mean? 196 00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:30.600 Like, because she bought the stuff and we're coming to 197 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:32.600 her house and she's doing I need to get better. 198 00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:33.799 I gotta buy some plate over or something. 199 00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:35.720 But my point is is like, it's not like I'm 200 00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:37.120 going over there and she's saying, well, if you want 201 00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:39.200 to come, you have to give me money for these supplies. 202 00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:41.080 Like it's it's kind of like we just it's a 203 00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:42.639 thing that we do when she comes to my house, 204 00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:43.879 I offer the kids snacks. 205 00:08:44.120 --> 00:08:45.960 I'm not asking her. Can you give me five for 206 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:46.679 the fruit snacks? 207 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:48.600 Note now, if there's a parent that wants to leave 208 00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:50.360 the bear there, that's a nice thing, thank you. But 209 00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:51.960 you don't go there with the expectations. 210 00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:56.200 You don't ask, you can't. 211 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:59.000 It's because you chose that location that I think makes 212 00:08:59.039 --> 00:08:59.799 this all weird. 213 00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:00.960 Yeah. 214 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:03.919 Again, it would be like you have a party at 215 00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:09.480 Dave and Busters and then the food comes and all 216 00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:12.039 the kids start eating, and then you say, oh, you 217 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:12.759 have to pay for that. 218 00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:15.639 But wait, we're at a party. I'm under the assumption that. 219 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.240 Actually I went to a party like that about two 220 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:20.919 weeks ago and the kid was turning ten. And what 221 00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:23.120 the parents did. They gave each of the kids, like say, 222 00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:25.320 like twenty bucks worth of tokens to go play. They 223 00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:27.440 didn't ask that money back. It was a part of 224 00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:28.320 the party, right. 225 00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:30.080 And then beyond that. 226 00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:32.600 And then after they took the tickets out there when 227 00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:35.320 they turned the niff for whatever that they didn't ask for, 228 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:37.559 like the prize that they won and all that stuff back. 229 00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:39.480 No, it was a weird part. 230 00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:41.879 That's weird. And then and then probably was. 231 00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:43.600 Like, dude, I spent like mad bread. That's a lot 232 00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:43.960 of money. 233 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:47.919 No it is. That was her choice. Why she thirty 234 00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:50.519 five per she had like nine or ten kids. That's you. 235 00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:53.240 It's the you can't have it at that spot and not. 236 00:09:53.720 --> 00:09:57.320 Yes or you do, and you in the card are like, hey, guys, 237 00:09:57.320 --> 00:09:59.440 we'd love for you to come to our party at 238 00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:01.200 Build a Bear. You can feel free to make your 239 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:03.080 own what you kind of have to put that. But 240 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:04.159 that's still weird. 241 00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:06.720 You got to say, son, like you know, let's all 242 00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:08.200 come and build bears for my son. 243 00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:09.720 I'm going to put twenty dollars to. 244 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:14.519 Half those people ain't showing up. The mom crazy if 245 00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:16.919 you like, think about it. So she made a drive 246 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:19.200 to build a bear, and then when the party was done, 247 00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.399 when that part was done, we attracted to the house 248 00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:27.279 that can way too much for transport. I'm leaving off 249 00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:28.720 to build a bear with my bear. 250 00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:33.879 I wonder if anybody has a I went to a 251 00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:37.000 kid party and there was a weird like thing that 252 00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:42.200 happened where because I'm telling you, people spend so much money. 253 00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:46.039 Me being one for Layla's first birthday, I had a 254 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:49.759 boozy brunch like I spent money, but I'm not ever 255 00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:53.039 going to ask anybody else for money, and I'm certainly 256 00:10:53.039 --> 00:10:54.279 going to send them home with a party. 257 00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.279 For There's a new thing now too.
