I Can't Believe I Went On This Date!

The episode of *Abbott Elementary* blends humor and relatability by dissecting the pitfalls of dating through absurd, exaggerated experiences. Characters share deeply personal and comedic stories about failed dates, ranging from a man who doesn’t open the door or farts in the car to a partner who returns with soaking wet hands and grabs fries. Nails, hygiene, and personal appearance are repeatedly highlighted as major red flags, with Harper joking that nail-biting is a prerequisite for dating. The narrative expands into satire of reality TV, particularly *Love Island*, where couples are mocked for being superficial and inauthentic. Other segments explore awkward bathroom moments, such as public restroom encounters and unclean hands, while a playful LARPing segment mocks pretense in relationships. The tone remains lighthearted and self-aware, reflecting the cast’s struggles with dating and self-image. Overall, the episode uses humor to explore real-life anxieties about compatibility, communication, and personal standards in relationships, offering a candid yet entertaining look at the chaos of modern dating.

Welcome back, frickin' frack. Welcome to the jungle. ABC Wednesday. Abbott is back. It's gonna be the best year yet. Thank you, now we can finally turn this up. And everyone's going wild. Y'all think you run this school, but you don't. It's going great. Abbott Elementary. Anything can happen in the jungle, right guys? Season premiere Wednesday on ABC and stream next day on Hulu. My dating life is so bad. So I was going on this date with this one guy. He gets to my house, he picks me up. I'm expecting him to come and open the door for me, right? Did he just send you like an I'm here text? Yeah, he said here. What a way to start a date, man. We sit down, he's automatically so rude to the waiter. He's like, I want fish. Number one, that's an egg. You want fish? Like, ew, eat some chicken. And so then he's like, actually, I need to use the bathroom. So I'm like texting my friends, I'm like, ew, I need to get out of here. He comes back, his hands are soaking wet. His hands are soaking wet, he grabs one of my fries. Oh. All right, hey guys, I ripped off all my nails again. Just stop talking about your nails. Every episode you started. Every episode. We started with her nails again. Maybe, Harper should have a nail podcast. You ripped all of them off? Yeah, they're all gone. Wait. Now you look like you have little kid hands. I have an idea for the podcast. Oh, this is rare. Okay. Jay hardly ever has ideas for the podcast. Okay. I do have ideas. Okay, let's see it. My idea for the podcast, none of you guys watched Love Island, did you? Nope. Okay. So in Love Island, not an appropriate show, by the way. In Love Island, they do this thing called Movie Night, where they bring all of the couples together. Little kid hands. And they put a big TV screen up in the villa. Oh my gosh, so bad. And you just watch everything that has been said about you behind your back. That's the only episode I watched, and I was in shock. And everything that your partner has said about you behind your back, all your friends. Just. Everything. I don't want to see that. Remember when Sincere, or whatever his name was, was like, good morning, my beloved. And then it went straight to him saying. He kept calling. He called multiple girls in the villa beloved. I feel like that's just a cheesy thing to say. He went to a tech. If any guy calls me beloved, you better beloved my way, your way out of my life. I think we should. I would love to get anybody from Love Island on, honestly. I would too. I want Huda or whatever. I didn't watch her season. They hit me up to be a bombshell. I'll not show, but I told them I was married. I was like, nobody did that. Fortunately, I can't do it. Yeah. I'm never going on Love Island. There's no way they hit you up. They did. They hit my email, and they asked me to be a bombshell. That was a scam. You were getting scammed. No. In case y'all don't know, the bombshell are the people they put on the island to tempt the couples. Yeah, I don't think that happens. I'm pretty sure. I feel like trying to find a different couple. Honestly, I feel like I've never watched any other season except for this season. But I feel like all the bombshells came in. Hold on one second. Most of them had a really hard time. Finding relationships because everybody was really closed off. You know what's crazy? I hated dating and loved it, but it was like one of the worst times of my life. I can't imagine going on a show and trying to do it live. It's a show. Where everything's recorded. That's just like the worst way to date. It's a show where you're going to be in a couple, and then your partner may just decide that they like the bombshell that walked in earlier better than you. That would be-- insert me. Insert me in there. I'd put up to be a bombshell. Right. Right now. Anyways, I'm convinced Love Island, all of it, and I mean all of it, 100% of it, none of them like each other. Not one of them. I mean, there's no way. Because you guys know something? I'm sure there's a decent amount that don't like each other. No. Yeah. They put a prize pool of $1 million. A prize pool? It's $100,000. $100,000. Wait, they win money if they stay together? Yes. Yeah, the couple at the end. So the couple that wins at the end gets $100,000. You stink. He stinks. I know. I was going to shower before, but I didn't have time. So this is going-- It's bad. I never really understood when people said Cash smells bad. It's like, oh yeah, like a regular BF. Don't be mean right now, Cassie. Until we played soccer the other day. And then I was like, I can't be around him. I can't. I can't do it. I don't know if anyone says that. It's so stinky. All my friends that have come over, like Blake and Brooke, and when I was friends with Kayla, she was like, why does Cash smell so bad? Aw, that's sad. Let's stop being mean. This isn't Love Island. I'm not watching all the-- We're just on hoops right now. OK? We're like, let's just tell you what everyone says. I think that you do need to get a heavier deodorant. That's all I'm going to say. Here's the issue, what they talked about the other day. I told Kinsey after that pot I wanted it. What did they call it, the-- Welcome back, frickin' frack. Welcome to the jungle, ABC Wednesday. Abbott is back. It's going to be the best year yet. Thank you. Now we can finally turn this up. It's going great. Abbott Elementary. Anything can happen in the jungle, right, guys? --soap that is non-scented. He wanted the pH balancing soap for his armpits. Antibacterial? No, because Cash had told me this before. And I believe him. After you shower, sometimes you feel like you smell worse later. I've never said that. Yes, you have. No, listen. Or no, deodorant. You said after you wear deodorant. No, here's my details. I can smell good. Here's my details. I can smell good if I want to. I was supposed to shower before this episode. But then we ran out of time, and I didn't have time to shower. So I was like, frick, guess I'm going to stink. But that's only because I was sitting outside on the porch all day. And I do that in the middle of the day when it's like 100 degrees out. So I just sweat all day on the porch. And then I didn't have time to shower before. When you met him as a teenager, did he smell good? No. He smelled so good when he was younger. Y'all don't understand. It's because I sit outside all day in the sun. No, it's because you wore cologne when you were a teenager. And you don't wear anything now. I sit outside. I met you in a meet and greet when I was 10. No, you didn't. I sit outside all day in the sun, and I sweat. So then if I go do anything, I'm supposed to shower before I leave. But I don't. Today I was supposed to shower before I came up here, but I didn't have time to. So I came straight from the back porch. Did you meet us in a meet and greet when you were 10? Yeah. No. Where? No. LA. Close enough. Something like that. Because we did a meet and greet probably 10 minutes from your house. That is crazy. Our second ever meet and greet was 10 minutes from here. Really? Yeah. Why? Y'all don't even live here yet. Nope. We did one in the Tulsa Mall, and then we did one here. Where? In Louisville. It's a thrift store now, but it used to be an event center. Thrift Giant? No. Look. It's a different one. Here, I got some pictures and videos. Yeah. Yeah. Don't tell me. For a second, you were talking about-- We did it for free, too. You were talking about-- We just did it for the fans. For the love of the game. We were talking about how the Love Island couples don't really like each other. I do think some of them probably don't. But I do think the winners of this season actually really liked each other, because they're still together now, and they've been together every day since-- Is it over? Yeah. The show ended a few weeks ago. But the couple that won was literally the best couple on there. They started dating in the show. Yeah. They're dating. They started dating in the show, and they've been together every day since. And you want to know what's funny? I thought it was crazy, is the guy who won, his name is Bryce. And he was living in LA. He was a model. But he was downplaying his success in the show so that people wouldn't like him for being a model. And when the girl asked him, she's like, what do you do for work? He was like, oh. That's so embarrassing. I don't even like talking about it. And she was like, what? And he was like, I work on garbage trucks. I repair garbage trucks. Wait, he lied to her? No. He wasn't-- so he's a model. He said, I do a little bit of modeling, but then I also work on garbage trucks, and I repair garbage trucks. And she was like, that's not embarrassing at all. That's work. You're working. But what he didn't tell her was that he owns the garbage repair truck company. Oh. Wow. So he doesn't work on it. He's just-- He's a baller. Yeah. And he's a very successful model. He's been modeling for years. Yeah. She was like, wow, I'm just with the trash truck repair guy. This is our first meet and greet, or second meet and greet. What's up, everybody? Yo! And the crowd goes wild. Why are you-- why are you not like, wow? Maybe she saw the wrong video here. Because I didn't get a reaction. I don't understand what she's looking at. Here's another video. Oh, what's up? The line goes outside. Lots of people. Can I see it? The line goes outside the building. OK. Yo, I have a big pimple. Don't distract from his moment right now. He's trying to have a moment. There's a few people there. Oh, my gosh. There's Lilly. Lilly made a cameo in that video. Oh, wait. Yeah. Wait, wait, wait. So this was December 8, 2018. And in this meet and greet line-- this is a crazy stat. In this meet and greet line, Kate was the one taking the photos for everyone. You would hand Kate the photo, and she would take it. I was the photographer. For Brooke Berry, I was Brooke's photographer. Because it was like Cash and Maverick, Brooke Berry-- Where was Alex? He was there. Alex might have been there. It was Cash, Maverick, Brooke Berry, Michael, and Laney. And Laney were all doing pictures this day. So it was like you'd meet Cash and Maverick. And then you'd meet Laney. And then you'd meet Michael. And then you'd meet Brooke. And then there was a bunch of people taking pictures. And I was taking pictures of Brooke. Yeah. And yeah, so Kate was the photographer that day in 2018. Yeah. With zero followers. No followers, not at all. I just had to pop this pimple, and I literally-- I think you went from being the photographer for social media creators to the social media creator. With how fast did you gain followers? What a come up. Wow. Didn't you gain followers rapidly? Rapidly fast? As soon as-- Well, considering she was dating me. As soon as I posted with Cash, yeah. How fast did you grow? I remember overnight, we made my account on my 16th birthday because that was when the video of us had gotten leaked. And we were like, OK, we might as well full send it. And so I remember overnight, I had 60,000 followers, which was crazy. Dang. This was the day before the meet and greet. This was Kate. Yeah. That's the day before. That's the day before the meet and greet. Wait, you asked her to be your girlfriend? No, not this day. You're so skinny. who cash or kate oh no not get oh my that would be so rude i was i was so she's like no kate was big she's like no kate was not when i was i was literally i was not talking about kate i was 14 there yeah cash was 16 cash was 15 15 something like that he was about to turn 16 you know who what other couple amazes me uh from a reality tv show jim and monica still together oh yeah

cc's and we were all sitting on a table and we were sitting on a table and every time the guys would open the men's bathroom the urinal was running and we were like oh my god we're gonna be like oh my god we're gonna be like right there so that's that's always the weirdest thing too when the urinal is by the door people open it open the door and i literally see kids in my class butt naked whoa whoa no one wait what grade are you in here no one should be what age are we talking seniors oh i thought i was hoping you were saying like kindergarten no because they do be pulling their pants down at the urinal i'm not kidding no but like i was like oh my gosh like that's crazy like what is that design that's funny makes me laugh every time that's not the design that's not the design you know we don't do that right she's talking about the design of the bathroom the layout no no no i'm not talking about the bitmoji design or nothing no nothing makes me laugh harder than when i go into the men's bathroom and there's just a little boy that's like four and his pants are just all the way to the ground on his ankles for absolutely no reason using the urinal. I'm like, what are we doing here? One time, I took a shower in a urinal. We've heard the story. Did you? Yeah. Twice. I only did it once. Okay. I peed in a urinal. What? No, no. You have two. You literally told me you have. You have? Kate? Peed in a urinal. Yeah, you told me two years ago. Oh, no, two years ago when Paige was on the podcast, I was like, I peed in a urinal. Paige was like, Kate, let's give it a shot. And then y'all were like, yeah, let's go give it a shot after this. Yeah, no, just so you know, we never gave it a shot after that. We were making jokes. What was that? Wait. Have any of y'all used a sink? Be honest. Yes. What? I have not. That was a very crazy, absurd question. I said that the other day when I was making fun of a person for using a sink. And y'all were just like, oh, that's horrible. Why did you? I peed everywhere. Hold on. What was the scenario where you used a sink? I don't really remember. Well, actually, no, I didn't. My sister did. And I tattled on her. Oh, look at her changing her story now. No, I can call my sister right now. I can call Anna and she'll tell you she peed in it. Okay, let's do it. Yeah, but what if you did too another time? I didn't do that. It was a double sink? I wouldn't have. It was a double sink being in a head. Stop looking at a dude's snapper. But I would not have peed in the sink after tattling on Anna for doing that. Who is that? Oh, she's about to be. I'm going to put on blast. You do not want to accept this phone call, Anna. Probably this age. Oh. Telephone number. That's embarrassing. No, it didn't even ring. Anna peed in the sink. No, she was probably like five or six. Okay, that's. So, I've been on a few dates this summer, yes. I can't lie. You want to talk about that? You brought that back up yourself? Yeah, I do want to talk about it. Because the thing is, I get the ick from guys so easily. Like, it's embarrassing. Like, I like one thing. One thing, well, like, I immediately check their nails to see if they're long. Is that the first thing you look for in a guy is their nails? Yeah, I do. And that's why Cash, like, I don't think. Trim them. Cash is traumatized here. I know, but still, the shape of them are ugly. Like, you know, like, you know, like, the last guy that I was talking to. Half circle? Like, what? No, the last guy that I was talking to, I genuinely ended things with him because of his nails. What shape would you like them to be? Mine are ugly. Or mine are, like, really ugly because I just got them off. But I want them to be, like, literally, like, honestly, like, it's hard to describe. Nubs? Like, they, like. No, not nubs. Like, not, like, bite. Yeah, I want them to bite them. I want them to constantly be short. But I, like. You want them to bite their nails. Requirement. Requirement to date Harper. Must bite nails. I'd rather have them bite their nails than clip them. You want them, like, animal style. Y'all think there's some, like, 12-year-old boy that watches our podcast and he low-key is gonna, like, because he likes Harper, he's gonna be like, oh, I'll just start biting my nails. In case I ever meet her one day. Ew, my pants are, like, so cold. I'm gonna see a little boy sometime, like, at the mall, like, wanting to come up and ask for a picture, but he's like, hold on, I gotta just. What is that kid doing over there? He's just. Looking up at us, like. What is the gremlin activity? No, but, like. He's, like, bleeding from his fingers. No, it has to be a specific. It has to be, like, a specific shape of nail. Like, they can be short. Like, Cash's shape of nail, like, those are, like, square and ugly. Like, so you know. What are you talking about? These are half circle. He was so pretty. I'm so proud to show them to you, too. He's like, I'm more torn on these. Let me see. Let me see. I have to know, where did you clip your nails? Like, what location in the house? Oh, I do it in Kate's sink. Okay, that's. And then I wash them down the drain. I always wondered, can you wash nails down the drain? I don't know, but I do it a lot. Why were you doing it in Kate's sink when you have your own sink? Because hers is where the clippers are. You couldn't move over a foot and a half to your sink? Hey, finish your story. Oh, yeah. So, any guy, like, I. That's. Like, genuinely, why I ended things with my first ex and my most recent ex. Well, ex talking to today, just because of his nails. Like, I can't do it. Yeah. It's disgusting. You cut things off of them because of his nails. Like, if the white part is showing, like, the white growing out part is showing, like, we're done. You couldn't get past the nails? I can't get past it. No. Dang. It's so bad. Or if your breath smells bad. That's really bad. Well, I feel like that's automatically a turn off. I screwed up. Yeah. No, nobody likes bad breath smell. I don't know how Kinsey puts up with it. I'll be honest. What? Oh. What do you mean? Stink breath. My breath just smells like Tums. I'll be honest. Oh. I'd be snacking on it. Maybe that's Tummy. No, I'd be snacking on Tums. Tummy. All right. But, um. At least your nails aren't screwed up. Oh, whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa, man. Listen, it's anonymous. Everybody point who has the worst breath. Three, two, one, go. You. Well, you said the wrong word. Wait a minute. You feel like a bully. You said the wrong word. Who has. Who is most illiterate? No, wait. Who has the worst breath? Three, two, one. Well, you said. Wait. You used the correct word, though. You said it's anonymous. Do you know what that word means? It's anonymous. Oh, it's anonymous. That's what I meant to say. It's not unanimous. Unanimous. Everyone ready? Three, two, one, go. Okay. Y'all are making me feel real rude every time y'all do that. I feel like a straight up bully. Wait, but seriously. Was there anything else besides the nails? Yes. Okay. So, those nails. Because I feel like you can get past the nails. No, I can't. Like, I can't. I can't physically. Like, why did he just do that? I don't know. That's disgusting. I don't like that. Did he scare you? No, like, the shape of them is so disgusting. I'm sorry. Okay. Did he. Is there anything that wasn't physical that made you turn off to him? Girl, there ain't. Oh, my gosh. Why'd you grab her like that? Zoom into that. Hey. Zoom into that. She's reflecting. She's self-deflecting right now. Her nails are chopped. It looks like she glued them and then rubbed the glue with the nail file. It doesn't look good, Harper. I'll be honest. I mean. To be talking about other people's nails right now. Also, your wrists dry. Put some moisture on them. I almost. It was like sandpaper. I almost cut myself. You grabbed her wrists hard. You did. Trust me. You want to be delicate with sandpaper. Next time, don't do that. You win. Yeah, because I had to get her before she got away. She knows what she's doing. You, like, treated her like you were trying to hit a mosquito. Don't take that. Don't take that. Yeah, come on. Let the camera zoom in on him. Show him. Show him, Harper. Come on. He just took off my nails. Oh, I didn't. Show them your nails and mine. I bet mine are prettier right now. I'm not showing them. Are you jealous of my nails? No. Is that why? Oh, my gosh. She's jealous. Would you get a full set? She's jelly. Ew. Ew. That just got all over me. You nailed it. She's jealous. Nailed it. Basically. Basically what? So basically. What are you basically in? Basically, this guy had bad nails. Wait. We're talking about a guy still? My wrists are so dry. Wait. What's another? What's another red flag outside of fingernails? And like his physical appearance. Dry wrists. Can y'all let her finish a story? We're trying to help. I don't even know what her story's about. All she's been saying is that she hates some. She hates nails in general. So it's that. And then another thing is he went to the back. ABC Wednesday. Abbott is back. Thank you. It's going great. Abbott Elementary. Anything can happen in the jungle. Right, guys? After one time, this was my first ex. Okay. Wait. Hold on. Wait. Let me set a ground rule for you. Ex this summer? The first one I went on a date with. So he came out of the restroom. Do I know this guy? Oh, my gosh. Can we have. Do I know this guy? No. Can we have. Have I ever met him? Can we have a story? No. Can we have a story that doesn't involve bathroom or nails? Just one time. One story. So he came out of the bathroom after our date, and his hands were soaking wet. He didn't dry them? No, no, no. It wasn't from that, I don't think. He didn't wash them. I don't know what it is. You think he went in there. You think he stuck his hands in the toilet? You think he peed all over his hands and then walked back out to your date? Well, I don't know what it is. No, he probably rinsed them off at least, right? Let's just say those wrists were not dry. Do you guys ever. Okay. Do you guys think it's appropriate to call someone out when they don't wash their hands after the bathroom? Yeah. Yeah, I've done it. Mav did it. It was bad. Mav doesn't do it. No, listen to this. One time when we were little, we were super little. I was like three or whatever, and Mav was like. I was like eight, bro. No. Okay, sure. Whatever age. You were like seven. Okay, I'm just estimating here, man. I'm just saying, we weren't like so little that it was like acceptable. We were old enough that I shouldn't. Okay, well, whatever age Mav was, he was a little baby, and we go into the bathroom, and we're standing there, and my dad's washing his hands. And then he said, the other guy walks in, uses the bathroom, and walks out, and Mav looks at him straight in the eye, just like seven years old. And he was like, hey, mister, I think you forgot to wash your hands. And the guy was like, uh, yes, I did, young man. Yes, I did. No, he's like, I was going to. I'm like, you're halfway out the door. You are not washing your hands. You're getting called out by a seven-year-old? That's tragic. You were at a buffet. I'm sorry. You can't do that. Ew, that's disgusting. I'm not allowing it. A buffet? That's. I've done that. Well, I don't want to say any names, but someone here I don't think washes their hands. And I just need to know if it's okay if I call them out when it happens next. Well, call it out right now. Yeah, is it dry wrists over there? Wait, who do you think it is? I just want to say. Casey, who do you think it is? That sounds awfully. That sounds awfully suspicious. Who do you think it is? Who is it? She's like, freaking out on me. Hey, listen. I have no evidence except for the fact that numerous times I have heard this person flush the toilet and immediately open the door with not enough time to wash your hands. Oh, I already know who they're talking about. Wait, at your house? Wait, you don't wash your own hands at your house? No, not if I'm not. I'm not doing anything that needs to be washed. Okay. If I'm just peeing. That's disgusting. No, Matt, that's exactly when you need to. No, I don't. All the time. When you reach into my Dorito bag, I don't think I'll understand you. You have unwashed hands every single time. As a man, when I go to the bathroom, I don't touch anything. Literally anything. You're never getting my jerky, Doritos. Nothing. Trail mix. Nothing ever again. Yeah, you wash your hands in my own house. I'll be honest. That's like saying you don't wipe in your own house. No, no, no. If you're going number two, you have to wash your hands. Going number one, I don't think a lot of people wash their hands. And I know you don't. Because I've seen you. I never said I didn't. Well, number one, if it's about me, you don't wash your hands. Every time I see you, you wash your hands. Is it because you know I'm going to yell at you? I do this little trick. I turn the water on. I think Kate heard. There we go. That's so evil to make it just seem like you wash your hands. You better not be doing that. You don't think he'd do that? Come here, honey. Kate, I promise you, if he's just peeing, he's not washing his hands. No, he is. Kate. He is. Who knows? I will bet you ever. Everything. No, he is. Yo. You see how he's not denying it? Wait, so. Look her in the eyes and tell her that every time you pee. Matt, we're over it. I'm trying to talk about my date life right now. Your dating life? When were we talking about that? Y'all are all happily married. Kate, it's okay. It's okay. That's not okay. It's okay. What, that Harper hasn't found her match yet? No. If anybody is in our house going to the bathroom and not washing their hands after, that's diabolical. What are you going to do if it's your husband? Think. Can't get rid of him. I literally will freaking. I will freaking throw my shoe at you every time. I'll just. Like what? Not the chancla. No. The chancla. Chancla. It's a chancla. But yeah. What I'm saying is like. Everybody. What do you mean? You weren't saying anything. You just started your thing. Everybody in my life is like happily. Like y'all are like pretty much my only friends. No, you have a lot of friends. You do. Just a lot of LARP friends. A lot of fake ones. Whoa. He just wanted to say the word LARP. Okay. Yeah, he did. I'm trying to use it. Literally, someone told Matt the other day that LARP is strange. And he keeps using it. I don't even know if I'm using it right. I'm just using it. Do you know what LARP is? Live action role play. Okay. Yeah. Do you know what it means? I need to wash my hair. Do you? What does it mean? He just said. No, that's like the nerd version of it. Do you know what it really means? What? Like if I said, Kinsey, you're LARPing right now. It's like a new trending thingy. What would that mean? That is incorrect use of the word. No, it's not. It's very correct. It's not trending. You're stupid if you use it in any context other than. No. No. That's the correct use of the word. LARP is a real word. Yeah. Don't look it up, Kate. Don't look it up. LARPing is the people who go to. No, stop looking it up. I want to know if you know what it means. I don't. LARPing is the people who go to the park and they do live action role play and they have swords. No. And they're just like. Yes. Now, you might get that. You might get that confused with what me and Maverick did. Pop up a picture. That's not LARPing though. That is melee. We are fully aware we were not wizards. That was melee. So there was a very big difference there. I'd just like to point that out. If I had popped up the picture, that's really embarrassing for you. No, I was the championship in my age division. Like, of course. What, the under 12? My nails never stay on. They never stay on. You can't pick them. You can't pick them. It's because you go like this. At least they're pretty. If we all LARPed, just know I would win. Do you feel like the guys you date are LARPing? What does it mean? Wait, LARPing. Oh, no. The guys that I date. I'll show you. Always end up having some sort of, like, some sort of reason why I can't date them. Why are you LARPing? Why are you grabbing a pitchfork to tell me what LARPing means? Stand up. I'm scared. I'm scared. Should I stand up? Stand up. Can I have this? Yep. I don't want you to touch it. All right, stand up. And hold it in the air. I don't know if I should. I'm embarrassed. No, no, no. I promise. I promise. No, this is a prime LARPing situation. All right, now say, I'm a farmer. No, seriously. I told you a LARPing was. No, say it. No, I will not. Hold it up. Hold it up and say, I'm a farmer. I refuse it. No, wait. You got to do it to understand what LARPing is. Just do it real quick. Well, you stand up and you hold this up in the air and say. Oh, you're going to stack it. I'm sorry. Go on, do it real quick. I'm going to be so mad. I'm going to be crazy. And you say. Yes, and you say. What will Cash say? Cash says. I'm a LARPer. I need more food, okay? Oh, there you go. I like the accent. No, I'm not doing it. No, just do it real quick. I'm a LARPing for a second. What does I'm a farmer mean? They want me to embarrass myself. Okay, just hold it right there. It'll make sense. Okay. Wait, are you sure? No, with the accent. I'm a farmer. You just did it. You're LARPing. You're a sad farmer. I literally told y'all what it means. No, no, not role play. I don't like it with the pitchfork anymore. All it is, all LARPing is, is just being something you're not. That's what people do. This is literally a huge back scratcher. No, I promise you, it is a huge. Wait, let me scratch your head. What? Let me scratch your head. Turn over, let her scratch your head. Oh, wow. That is like, now it's now. You need a little hair, Rich? Let her scratch your back. Okay, gentle, gentle. Oh, did that hurt? I kept literally feeling myself. That felt like it hurt. You could scratch my back with it, though. Yeah, lift your shirt up. Oh, wow. Turn around, Kat. Angry farmer, is that what you are? Turn around. She's mad. What are you doing? You want me to do it. You don't want them to do it, trust me. Unless you want to lose your skin. All right. Lift your shirt up. Lift your shirt up. Ew, ew, ew, don't do that. Yeah, lift, lift, lift your shirt. Lift your shirt up. Lift it, lift, yeah. No. What are you doing? Why are we lifting his shirt? Why can't you do it over his shirt? He's laughing so hard at himself right now. Wait, do y'all want a new bag tour? Ready? Y'all need to see the other POV. Why that episode is so good? Oh, my goodness. Okay, ready? Turn your towards the camera more. Simmer my timbers back, come on. Ew. Ready? Is that her? Let me do it. That's terrible. I dug in a little that time. I mean, you got some marks on you now. Was there marks? Barely. You're going to have some. He's got white skin. They'll show up really, really soon. What did you just put on his leg? What is that? He's got a red freckle all over his back. Oh, my gosh. Well, you have tons of them. I'll get it off, Tess. Okay. Ew, what is that? Oh, it looks like lip gloss. What is that? It's gelatin. What is that? What is that? Wait, what is that? Lip gloss. Or Vaseline. Oh, Vaseline. All right, Harper. You clearly wanted to say something about your relationships. Yeah, I've been trying to, but y'all have been, like, messing around. We're here for you now. We'll listen. Okay, so my dating life. Harper. Oh. She said, oh, I'm on a podcast. Okay, so my dating life is so bad. This was, like, a few months ago, and it was going great. Like, everything was amazing. The one date, or did you go on multiple dates? One date. After this happened, I just, like, I couldn't. Oh, no. So we were going on a date, and everything was going good. I was so excited, and he gets to my house. He picks me up, and I'm expecting him to come and open the door for me, right? Like, that's what I did. Open that door to your house? No, open the door to the car. The car door. Okay. So I get out. I'm all ready. He's in the car. Did he just send you, like, an I'm here text? So, yeah, he said here. Oh, that's rude. Oh, wait. Then did you have to do the awkward walk from the front door to the car? Yes. Those are awkward. He didn't even knock on the door? It doesn't take that much more effort. Just walk to the door. No, listen to this. So he was just on his phone like this. It means a lot. Like, in the car. He was, like, on his phone trying to knock on the door. I feel like he didn't see me. So I get in the car. I'm like, yay. Let's date or whatever. Okay, so then we're on the way to our destination, or our food place, and he's like, oh, yeah, he's driving. So he doesn't open the door for me, number one. So we start driving, and we get to the stoplight. It smells literally disgusting in the car, and I'm like, I don't want him to think that I farted, so I asked him, I said, did you fart? You should have just said, do you smell that? Yeah, I know. I asked him, I said, did you fart? And he was like, no. He said, no. Did you, LOL? He said, LOL. Oh. LOL podcast? No, so I was like, did you just say LOL out loud in person? He was like, yeah, you don't use abbreviations. And I was like, no. Use abbreviations? I was like, not really. So this is already awkward. We're already being awkward. And I'm like, dude, this is not going to be a good date. Poor guy. So, no, not poor guy. He didn't open the door for me. He farted in my face. Okay, so we get to the date. I open my door again. So I open the door. And we get to, we sit down. He's automatically so rude to the waiter. Uh-uh. You want fish? Like, ew. Eat some chicken. So he gets up, uses the bathroom. You can see the urinal from your chair. No, he gets up, uses the bathroom. I'm like, dude, this is so bad. So I'm texting my friends. I'm like, bro, I need to get out of here. That's the worst when you're stuck on the date. I know. I know. And so I'm like, this is so bad. He goes to the bathroom. He comes back. His hands are soaking wet. Soaking wet. That's this guy. He grabs one of my fries. Oh. At least you know they're clean. Did he eat all of them? No. It wasn't. It wasn't. It could have been water. It wasn't water. You don't know that. No, it wasn't water. You don't know that. What do you think he did? I choose to believe it was water. Harper, it gets worse, I think, as you get older. Because I knew a guy one time who went on a date with this girl. Multiple dates. He's gone, like, five. Five or six dates with this girl, okay? Okay.
