That was "Crazy Town" and "Butterfly." That's the one. You're my chicken pie. "Butterfly." Didn't he? He did? The guy from "Crazy Town"? Yeah, didn't he? Wow. He has now gone into heaven. Isn't that "Shifty Show" show? From "Crazy Town"? He's now gone to heaven with the lead singer of "Smash Mouth" and... The guy's from "LFO." The guy's from "LFO." Oh, the one was in town over the weekend. He was in "Wind Up." Doing that. I'm fired. Oh, I'm sorry. Sorry. What's going on? Yeah. But, yeah, so my friend Marcus, who you all met at my surprise birthday party, he was a guy that flew in from Los Angeles. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's the guy that I've known since I went to high school with this guy. So he has an aunt named Jennifer, and I love auntie Jennifer. We used to work in the same building, different companies, but same building, didn't even know her and my friend were related, which, when we found out, just enhanced our relationship to an entirely different level. So auntie Jen has a summer banger every year. Huge party. She has a huge backyard, and she allows my boy Marcus to invite us, his friends, group of us. So I have been waiting to go to this party all summer, because not only is it her party, but Marcus is going to fly in, and he's bringing his family, who I love, and it's going to be fun. This is in my mind day comes of the event, which is Saturday. My mind, just as I'm saying this entire time, summer party, summer banger, few hours before I'm checking in. Hey, what's I'm everybody pulling up? Should I bring something? He says, no, you need to bring anything. Trust me. And then an hour before I want to get there, which is around 8 p.m., he's like, just so y'all know this not the summer party. This is her birthday party. So you don't even realize that it's don't even realize what I'm walking into. I'm thinking it's it's the status quo. It's what it's been since I've known summer banger. It's turned into birthday party. Now did I have time to pick up something? Yeah. Did I? No. Yeah. Cause it's different than a summer party where you just come and maybe bring a bottle. Yeah. You know, you got a birthday. You got to bring a birthday present. So I say if we get it, like I'm not about to stop then for one, I don't know if she's going to, well, she do drink, but I don't know her drink. So I didn't want to just show what a random drinking is not even a drink you like for your now birthday party. Yeah. Then I don't know. She doesn't strike me as a type of woman that likes cards. And I just felt like in that moment, like I don't want to go buy her a car. One, I was being lazy for her. Then the other thing I was like, she's not like what do people read the car and then some people save it. But I feel like a larger population, like you have that moment that you throw it away. That is the greatest thing ever that this guy does. He justifies the fact that he doesn't want to stop off to go buy a car. So he says, she doesn't look like the kind of person that would like a car. You know, you don't look like the person that wants a birthday gift at all. No, he's got a car and it's like, what are you really doing here? So you showed up totally empty handed. I showed up empty handed and then tell me, is this tacky or not? All right. Now I showed up any head empty handed. So maybe that answers the question right there. But I offered to cash out her. I said, Auntie Jam, Happy Birthday, you know, Summer Banger, wish her cash out. Like can I just, I told her, I don't have anything. I didn't bring you a car cause you don't seem like you like cards, but can I cash up you? Is that wrong? It's kind of tacky. Is it wrong though? I don't know. I mean, I, I think, I think it'd be tacky or, well, it is, no, it is tacky. It'd be tacky or if Auntie Jen had the cash app, uh, you know, things sitting there on a counter. Hey, cash at me. My birthday gift. You like just get a QR code. It's what it takes. I actually think it would be different as well. If you had cash after before you walked in with like a cute little message or something, I do. Then why don't you do a cash app? But you could, you can like write a message, right? Instead of saying, do you want me to cash after you was your mistake? Well, for what? I don't have a number. Like we type, we type, we see each other out, but I'm not like texting her on the, on the norm. Just being like, what's the other? You do it. So I don't have her numbers. So I don't know if she has cash app or VIMO and y'all know how I get sometimes. I'll just ask. I was like, Hey, do you have cash? I'm like, let me cash. And to your point, you can write a memo. So that gives me the card vibes. So I don't have to write a little note in a car. I just throw it in a memo line. Can I tell you that my recent birthday that I just had, I had like, actually, it was Jason, you know, the, who's one of the best promo guys in town. He does promo work for a bunch of clients and stuff. He actually. Jason Brown. Yeah. Jason Brown. It's a Starbucks gift card, birthday gift card and it was literally, I got a text. I got a text sent to me with a birthday card. So you could actually do that. I think some of the places that you go to, like different stores, like even McDonald's maybe you might be able to send them. Well, you can't card snacks does that does it? Yeah. My friend, Miss Kelly, she sends me card snacks all the time with Starbucks gift cards in them. And it comes via text. Now you're talking. And then it's what I think you can do a lot of things, but she always does. So if you go to someone's birthday party and you don't bring them a gift and you don't bring them a card, but you send them a card snack. That's acceptable. I, you know what? I don't know. Maybe that, I don't know that, that honestly just seems like it's a nice thing to do. If you pre planned it ahead of time where you're not going to see them, like if, like that's something that you send to somebody, if you're out of town and you can't go to the party, but you're going to the party, sit face to face, that only says to me, you thought about it on your way over to auntie Jen's house. Thanks. Which is pretty much what you were doing. But at least I didn't come with no options. Yeah. Like at least I was, you know, I didn't come fully freeloading. I was going to send a cash app. Is it? Okay. So here's a question. Let's talk. Let's talk this. Let's talk, uh, let's talk etiquette because we, you know, we are all full of etiquette except for Kevin. I'll take it. I want to know, I want to know from listeners on etiquette of stuff like this. Because I think that there's a lot of people that are just like you, Kev, that are, that are like, you know what? I don't have this. I don't have anything done. You know what I mean? Like I, what am I going to do? And I think that there's a lot of people that are probably like, Oh crap, what, you know, here I'll just cash app you. I can't believe how many times people will, um, and Megan is one of them and she's not here to defend herself on this. And Megan does this all the time where she sends me Venmo's, um, all the time after we have dinner or lunch together, like she doesn't ever want you to buy her anything. She hates that you pick up that when I pick up the tab. And I hate when I get a little hurt for my Venmo saying it met, you know, Megan Mick just sent you $15. I'm like, I mean, I'm not asking you for it. I really don't want it. Yeah, I'm a gift thing too. I feel like people just want money anyway. I feel like that's the best gift that you can get for sure. Well, yes and no, but I feel like you have to personalize it in some way. Oh, do origami, my $50 bid? Yeah. Do my mom, I use big money fans. Yes. In the car. In the car. This is my favorite. It's a core memory. Mariah. What's up? Hey, I just remind me of my grandma, who is 97. And she actually preferred cash or money, however, instead of the card. So we can actually just mail her cash instead of card. Really? Because grandmas usually do that to you. They usually send you cash in a card. Yeah, she's like, it's a waste of the stamp. So if you're going to just send anything, you might as well just send me all the money. So the money for the card and the money for everything. So we usually just don't ever send her anything. But I'll still send her something just because she's my grandma. Do you remember, and maybe, you know, this is something that was like during my age because it was no gift cards, you know, at first, we used to get McDonald's, like, little coupon books. Do you guys remember? Kevin, you're too young for McDonald's coupon books? I remember like the travel coupon books were, yeah, everybody was in there. Maybe they had, no, they had McDonald's coupon books. Is it coupon or coupon? Which one? It was a coupon. So they had these things and they were really cool where you would give it to you and it would be like, today's Friday, you know, you get a fry or you can get, you know, okay. Or hey, it's one cheeseburger or whatever the deal is. It was kind of cool. Three ice cream. My, actually not my grandma's, my grandma's died, but my answer is to give that to us all time. Leria, what's up? Hey. What's going on? Morning. Um, maybe I'm not first time calling them, but can Cass, you know, the Ria's on the farm? Leria's on the farm. What's happening? So, yeah, I do electronic gift cards and cash apps all the time. Unless it's like an older person because they like cards. They read them, they say, then they put them in photo albums, whatever, um, I give cards to them, but it's just like my daughter wants more birthday party because the kids like they want cash ads. They fill the door when they have like this electronic thing that can put in your apple wallet. So gift cards, all the time, um, electronic, so that's really, so, so that's, that's good etiquette in your family. Like for, so Kevin would have been okay doing that, uh, I think he was final and now I don't know if I would have been like, can I cash? Well, you have to have the cash, but I would have been like, Hey, I see what's your cash app? Yeah. Oh, I don't have it. Or send it this way. Or send it that way. So when is she having the summer banger? When is the. Saturday? Well, you said it was a birthday party though, instead of a summer banger, I think it was instead of her banger. I think it's instead of the summer banger. Oh, so she's not going to do it because I was going to say that's because you could always say I'll get you your gift, but I'll bring you to you on the summer, but I have her address, so I think I might just like send her something like an Amazon or something like a gift gift. Yeah. That actually is kind of cool. Do you ever, you know what a friend of mine did one time? They came to our house and we were having a party for a friend. They didn't realize it was basically a congratulatory party for them. They door dashed something to the house. So they actually door dashed flowers and candy and all this stuff and they had a meet them at the actual house and brought it in like they were bringing it and the door dash guy comes up and goes, hold on, can I take a picture of you with this? I don't want to get into a whole other top is I don't know if we got time. We got to get the dirty, but is it weird if I know your address like in this situation like over a birthday party and then I send you stuff like no, no, because you've been to their house. You've been to her house. Like ice cream, but you expect me to come to your house on that day. You don't expect the ice cream and show up over from now. Like you're still using my that's fun. Send them dairy. A lot of people do that for dates like they'll go on a date with a girl and then they'll end up. You asked at that. Yeah. He said, what do you say? It's only creepy. It's only creepy. If you don't like it. There's a story behind it, but on our second date, I realized halfway through the date that I was wearing my daughter's socks, that I was wearing Lucy's socks and so it like became a thing. And so he sent me like those bombas socks where they donate socks as it when you buy socks. He sent me like a whole box of those. I thought that was really cute. If he was ugly, you would have thought he was weird. What if it was bomba panties? That would be weird. That would be really weird. Although I need you for you. What's up, Angela? How you doing?
