Thank you for calling. Oh, hey, hey,
I am in need of a couch. I'm just
wondering who I need to talk to about
that. OK, I might can help you. What are
you looking for exactly?What I'm looking
for is I need a I need a big couch and
then the the other issues. I need some
type of partition on the couch for just
like when I'm watching TV and stuff with
my old lady cause. She does a lot of like
yelling at the screen and it makes me
really, really pissed offAnd so like, I
just need a barrier between your her and
me. So you're looking for like a console
in the middle. Yeah, like a console, but
also like a barrier, you know what I mean?
So to like keep her like yelling and all
her little nonsense on her side. So like,
especially like when it gets like she
starts yelling and be like, Oh no, no,
run, run. And I'm like, hey lady, you
know what I mean?Shut the hell up. So we
just keep that barrier up. Then we don't
got to worry about us getting into any
little tiffs or anything like that. It's
just like not what I'm trying to do, you
know?OK. I don't know if I have
any with like a barrier, but I definitely
have some with consoles and it kind of
splits the middle. That may be what
you're looking for. Oh, OK. But I mean,
do you do custom work?Cause you know,
money ain't a thing to me, you know?Hey,
shut up, man. I'm on the damn phone.
Yeah. So like, money's nothing. You know
what I'm saying?Like, I I mean, I should
have started with that. I'm a baller, so.
I'm not worried about the bread at all,
but I I just need what I need done. So
maybe, you know, tell me how much more
it's gonna cost for us to just like kinda
throw a wall up, you know what I mean?
Just like Trump style, get something just
in between us. I got you.
I mean, we don't custom make any
furniture, but we do get in lots of
pieces. We have a good price range. So I
mean, if you're looking for something
really nice, we definitely have that.
What if instead of like a wall wall, you
could like, you could like get some like
extra, you know, cushions, you know what
I'm saying?We could. Cause you got to
have cushions. You got hella couches. If
we could get some cushions and kind of
build it up, kind of like a like a Fort,
you know what I mean?Yeah. I mean, we
definitely have some couches. I just
really need to. I need a barrier, you
know?Right. I got you. I think we have
what you're looking for. I can't
hear the lady because you keep yelling.
Sorry. SorryCan you go ahead?Can you?
Sorry. Can you say what you're saying?
Yeah. I think we can pick you up for
sure. What's your name?My name is Callie.
Callie. Yeah. I mean,
OK, so she eats a lot of garlic in the
breath get wild too, you know?And I don't
like that. So I mean, maybe we need a
front. We need a front and a side joint.
You know what I'm saying?With just like a
little peek hole through it so she can
she can see the sh*t that she wants to
see. And I can have a damn Peace of Mind
in my house where I pay all the g*dd*mn
bills. Mhm. What kind of color you got?
You got, you know, we've got.
All kinds of different ones. We have
brown, tan, Gray. We've got leather,
we've got upholstered. You got anything
snake skin, like a snake skin couch?Cause
that sounds baller as to me. That sounds
like what big, big ballers and big p*mps
do. We do not have any snake skin in
them, ma'am. OK, well if I I got the
bread, you know, can we can we maybe get
some snake skin in that thing?Get some
snake skin, just maybe just snake skin
arms, just the arm snake skin and then
the rest of the couch, just, you know,
couch. Unfortunately, we're not set up to
customize like that. You know, you might
have to go elsewhere. Damn. What if I
bring in my own snake skin?If I bring the
snake skin, can you can you hook me up?
Maybe something under the table?You know
what I mean?I slide you as what?I mean, I
don't know how 100K. If I knew how to put
snake skin on those arms for you, I
would. I promise. All right, cool, cool
So what kind of couch you got?What?What
What are you sitting on?What are you
working with?Personally, I like
my sectionals, but you know, we offer
those too. We got sectionals and
upholstery. OK, OK, OK
And is your home life good where you
don't need like a wall or nothing like
that?Yeah, we're good. Shut the hell up.
OK. I'm gonna leave you for this woman on
the phone who has a better attitude.
Jesus. You know what?I'm gonna just
call a bricklayer. I'm gonna put a wall
up between us. OK. All right. All
right. You just ruined our new couch.
Thank you. All right, bye.
I had a friend who went to Antarctica and
he had his testicles freeze up on
him. And I just don't want anything like
that happening to me. It's a different
kind of cold, #1. You're talking about
something that he did, like there was a
wet cold and ours is a dry cold. We used
liquid nitrogen. What do you mean liquid
nitrogen?Do you mean that that my p*nis
might explode?Frozen p*nis.
OK.
Thank you for calling. This is Lisa. How
may I help you?Hi, Lisa. Lisa, this is
Mike. Listen, I'm a boxer
and I'm, I'm going to be having fights
really soon. So I've been working out
like constantly. OK. But I was
wondering, I heard about cryotherapy.
And I was wondering, does it stiffen up
your muscles and your and your joints and
stuff?Yeah, so it's fast recovery. So we
had a guy that was actually a boxer that
was coming here and he would do the
compressions for his legs and then he
would, I mean his arms and then he would
do whole body cryo and sometimes I'll
localize his elbow. Yeah, I'm trying to
make sure that if I do this cryotherapy
thing. You know that like my p*nis
doesn't stiffen up and break off. You
know, you know what I'm saying?It's not
going to do that. Why would it do that?It
wouldn't never do that. This is this is
my worry. No, it would never do that. No,
it would. I'm just saying my p*nis is is
thin and brittle and I I just want to
make sure, you know, it doesn't freeze
off. It's not going to freeze off.
There's a lot of people that go in there.
Nothing on and nothing happens. You have
to understand I'm a I'm a ladies man
outside of the ring. Well, everything
will still be intact when you come out
the ring and come out the cryo. I had a
friend who went to Antarctica and he had
his testicles freeze up on him and I just
don't want anything like that happening
to me. No, it's nothing. It's
not. It's a different kind of cold #1.
You're talking about something that he
did like there was a wet cold and ours is
a dry cold. We used liquid nitrogen. What
do you mean liquid nitrogen?Do you mean
that that my p*nis might explode?No, no,
no, no, no, noIt's
just the gases. It's just cold. And
you're in there for only three minutes.
It's that's that's just about how long
the boxing match is. Everything will be
fine. Nobody's had penises break off
and had to use scotch to tape the table
back on. Nothing happens. It doesn't
break off. It don't freeze off. I have
people that do it every single day. I
don't want to get no ouchy booboos. No
ouchy booboos. What happened to you?My
Willie won't be chilly. It might be a
little chilly, but it ain't gonna fall
off. Do you have any warm rooms?We
have the infrared cabin and we have the
zero gravity bed. Zero gravity. That
sounds interesting. So it's like a dry
float. It's like, you know, like floating
in the water, like a salt water. But it's
dry so you don't get wet at all. It
keeps my ba*ls warm. I guess it will if
you turn over, but we don't want you
turning over. So you laid on your back.
How big is the cryo room?I don't know. I
don't know what the size is, but you
should be fine. Can I bring my sparring
partner, you know, to do some cold
training?You want to bring who with you?
My sparring partner. You can't go in
there at the same time. It's one person
at a time. That's not fair. So big enough
for one person. I won't start crying or
anything in the cryo room, right?If you
do, I'm. I'm just going to post it on
Facebook and have every. Why would you do
that?That's not nice. Because you're
going to be crying. We can't have no
boxer being a punk and then want to cry
about it. Hey, there's no punk in
me. OK, Now, will you be
assisting me in this, this cryogenic
competition?Yeah, as long as you're here
between 8:00 and 4:00. Cause I I leave at
you then. Is it a female?Yes.
OK, now we're talking. Now we're talking.
Do you want to call me back or do you
want to make an appointment?I like to
punch things with my p*nis. Oh, my
Lord. You probably never heard things
like that. No, I have not. My p*nis has
sweaters and jackets and all kinds of
things. All right, well, I got to go.
And so if you have any other questions,
just give me a call back, OK?This place
better not freeze and make my p*nis fall
off. I know that. It will not do that.
I don't want to be frozen like Walt
Disney. Nice
talking to you, Lisa. All right, you too.
Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.
I'm just not. I'm kind of at a loss here,
Pete. I I'm used. I'm keeping this thing
as a pet, and it's acting real weird now.
Yeah, well, they're not meant to act
weird. They're not meant as pets.
They're meant to cook and eat.
Imagine if I was checking my just one
second, guys. I need to check my Twitter
notifications.
Fish market. Hey, who am I talking to?
Pete. Pete. Hey, it's David. How you
doing?What's up?I came in there last week
and bought a crab from you guys and
he was acting real live. You know, he was
like fine for first couple days. He was
crawling out of the bathtub and stuff and
but now he's acting kind of sick. Do you
guys give your crabs antibiotics down
there?Do we do what?Your
Do you use antibiotics with your crabs?
No. I'm just not. I'm kind of at a loss
here, Pete. I I'm used. I'm keeping this
thing as a pet and it's acting real weird
now. Yeah, well, they're not meant to act
weird. They're not meant as pets. They're
meant to cook and eat. Maybe he just
needs a friend. I because I I was just
wondering because I noticed down at the
store you guys have a lot kind of piled
in there and I'm wondering if maybe I
just need to come by more cause he misses
his buddies. Not the same batch as you
got last week. It's a new batch of guys
over there. Of course. Oh,
and do they have names already, or will I
have to pick out new ones?You have to
pick out new ones. You're not acting like
this is a very big deal. My pet is sick.
No, it's not. Because these are meant
to cook and eat. They're not meant for
pets. Says who?Says
nature. I'm putting a squeaky toy in
there. He won't play with it. He's not.
He's not fetching anything, Pete. I can't
help you with that. I'm just if I eat
him, he'll never play games or be around.
He'll then be gone. No, they're not meant
for pets. He pinched me the other day
when I was cleaning his tank. And now I'm
starting to wonder if he got that
attitude from you because you're giving
me a little bit of sass. I don't know
what to tell you. What would you do if
your crab was dying?I'm being honest with
you here. I would cook him and eat him. I
love him. OK.
I don't know what to tell you. Listen,
man, I can't help you. He's licensed as
an emotional support animal. I'm not
selling pets. I'm selling food. Let me do
the math here. I came in there and bought
a crab and now I have a pet crab. And
you're not a pet store?No. He's my
friend. Do you eat your friends?
Calling back.
Fish market. Hey, I want to apologize
to you. I I called up here earlier and
was talking about my crab, keeping it as
a pet. And I just wanted to apologize and
tell you that I cooked it and ate it and
you were right. And I'm sorry. All right.
Yeah, I cooked it and I sucked. I sucked
on the head part of it. It's juicy. It's
it's tasty. You were. You're on to
something. No problem. Everything I've
been thinking was a pet or a friend. I'm
going to start eating it now. What else
am I wrong about?
He was awesome. I love that guy. Is there
anything else I could assist you with?
Anything other than I got a bucket stuck
on my head?No. And I I certainly do
apologize. They should be paper, so you
should be able to rip it easily.
All right. Thank
you for calling KFC. How can I help you
today?Hello there. I got a problem with
the restaurant that I went to. Alrighty.
Well, I would love to help you with that.
Let me get just a little bit of
information from you, if you don't mind.
First of all, I love your chicken. It's
beautiful. Oh, great. Oh, it's just
right. Perfect. And I love the mashed
potatoes with the gravy on them, right?
Sometimes I like to mix it up real good
and drink it. That's how good I like it.
Right. Yes, Sir. Good stuff. The
coleslaw is great and the
biscuits are delicious. Yes,
Sir. Well, you need to work on the hats
you give out cause they're too tight and
I'm stuck in one. Hats. I
didn't know we did hats. The hats that
the chickens come in at.
I finished it and I put on my
hat and now I can't get it off. Uh oh.
You should think about the people with
large ears like myself. All
right, I agree. I will definitely put in
for them to have bigger buckets. And now
I can't get it off my head though. And
I'm. Dialing with my feet. Maybe
you'll come by here and get this off of
my head. I wish I could, but our
roads are super icy and so I
I don't think I'm going to be going
anywhere. They are. I
can't tell because I got a hat on my head
that I can't see anything with right now.
I'm bumping into everything and my head
smells like chicken. Could I get your
first name, please?Alma Higgins is my
name. Usually I get the three
piece. Last night I
went wild. Oh dear.
And I woke up this morning with a hat
all over my face and now I got
chicken in my ears. Well, I do apologize.
I think they're made out of paper, aren't
they?It's not your fault, darling.
So I will definitely put in a request.
It's whoever made these crazy hats.
Right. I I completely understand. I will
definitely put in your suggestion for the
bigger bucket. And there's an echo in
here too. Is there anything else I could
assist you with?Anything other than I got
a bucket stuck on my head?No. And I I
certainly do apologize. Um, they should
be paper, so you should be able to rip it
easily. Oh, you know what I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna drive to the store and maybe
they can do this for me over there.
Right. Well, if you've got a bucket or a
hat on your head, I would definitely be
careful driving. Oh, all right. I'll get
in accidents all the time. It's OK. I'm
related that I could help you with?You
know what I'm going to do?I'm going to
try to get into my car and I'm going to
start driving over to your place. All
righty. Well, Sir, thank you so much for.
I'll bring you some chicken. Well, thank
you. Hold on. Maybe if I push against the
chair, I can get this off.
Ow. You OK?
I got good news and bad news.
What's the good news?I'm out of the hat,
but I'm stuck in the lampshade.
Oh, no. I'm sorry to hear that. I'm gonna
drive over there now, Sir. That's, um,
that's probably not a good idea. I'm
getting in my car now, Sir.
OK. Chicken lady. See you soon.
Where the hell is the steering wheel?
Seems so nice.
