Speaker 2Back to the lecture or the legend at hand how y'all doing , man ? Y'all having a good day ? I hope so . So y'all ?
Speaker 2There was a time in my life where I said no to everything just because I wanted to say no . Say , for instance , somebody would ask to use my car when they didn't have a car and I'd be like , no , I'm going to use my car today . And then , as me and this person are chilling in the house all day , she would see me not use my car . Now I should have realized that karma is a mug , because , unconsciously , this person had harbored and she was waiting for the time and the moment in life where she could pay it back or pay it forward . However , you want to think about that , which has been the last two to three years of my life , where I'll be like , hey , I'll give you a little , just play-by-play . Oh , hey , yemi , do me a favor , yemi , do me a favor . Yemi , yemi , yemi , do me a favor . Yeah me , yeah me , yeah me , do me a favor .
Speaker 2The silence is deafening . Huh , that's how I feel , and now that I've gotten to the point of ultimate frustration with the lack of response , I have coined a phrase that I feel like it's starting to grow and I feel like it's starting to get to the point of annoyance , where I want it to be , which is it don't pay you to be difficult . Oh boy , snap , snap , snap , snap , snap . Hey , I know the yummy face has been very straight , but she was like , yeah , deji did that . Deji did that , I know , I did , I know . Hey , I know I did , I know I did , I know I did . And what are we talking about today ?
Speaker 1Today , I know I did .
Speaker 2And what are we talking about today ? Today , we're talking about cattiness , catty , petty , whatever you want to call it .
Speaker 3Ask yourself who is the pettiest person that you know . It's a nigga , right , it's usually a nigga . That's a lie , because the pettiest person I know is you . It's not how I'm not petty . You're like , intentionally petty and I'm just not an intentional petty person . I just happen to like , in certain situations , think of myself first , but you're intentionally petty , like you will know that the situation is the way that you would respond would be petty and you fully lean into it . Me , it's unintentional .
Speaker 2How can you unintentionally be petty ? How the hell did that sound ?
Speaker 3Sometimes it just happens like if , like I said , if you have the tendency to think of yourself first which you know uncandidly , I do and an outcome of a situation turns out to be petty , or I have a . I have this thing where , like you know , some of the things that I say come off as petty , but it's literally just meant to be like a statement as it is . It's never meant to be petty . Like you know where you have to preface stuff and say no shade . That's literally where I be coming from . But I don't think I mean I , like I said , I think that you know that it is uncharacteristic of you to be petty and you have fully leaned into it recently , as of late , being petty because you're trying to I don't know maybe match energy , or you just don't have the patience that you're used to having , or maybe for a bigger reason . But yeah , I think that you have the tendency to be petty for no reason .
Speaker 2So what was the ?
Speaker 3question . Oh , oh , no question , but we're today . We're talking about pettiness or levels two levels to pettiness I .
Speaker 2I like to think , because I was in a . I was in a . I heard something the other day that if you don't monitor your emotions , they tend to control you . And the example they use is anger , like when it's a level one anger , but because you don't know how to react , you always act at a level three and I feel like pettiness is like that a lot of the times , right , like if you feel like you've been , you do this a lot . That's why I said you talk about me being petty . You literally will not actively do things because you feel like you've been slighted before . You know the situation .
Speaker 3I'm not gonna speak no , give me like something that teases it so I can think about it , because I don't know everyday people who , who was I being petty towards ?
Speaker 3I wasn't being petty towards that person . I didn't think I don't . I don't know why people be thinking like okay , so if I have an opinion about something , it can literally just be an opinion , but like I don't be caring about stuff , like I don't care about anything for real to where I would let it affect me in a way . But I feel like it's okay to have an opinion about something , state your opinion and just let it be that . Like I feel like it's yeah , but I didn't . I haven't acted in a petty way towards that person or in a situation like I don't but you'll actively avoid functions , because that's not petty , though , like that's literally preference , is that preference ?
Speaker 2so if everybody's going versus petty , thatference versus petty .
Speaker 3That's a conversation . Is it preference though it is ? It is . I mean , I feel like for me personally , like because I'm like some way in the industry that I work in but also still have to be social in it , I feel like it's preference . You can't go to everything , so I'm gonna make it a priority of mine to only go to the things that one I feel like would be good for me to go to , but also things that I care to be at , because I did go to an event that that person was at and just because , like socially , my friends were there , um , but that didn't have any bearing on me . Not going is what I'm saying . Like I'm sorry to speak in in circles , but you know , we we're trying to keep um , trying to keep good , good relationships with people trying to keep hope alive , trying to keep good relationships with people .
Speaker 2So hope alive or a steady copacetic .
Speaker 3But yeah , like I don't think it's petty for me not to want to go somewhere , because I have a preference on the type of things that I want when I go out socially okay but like I think it would be petty if I was intentionally stopping that person's bag or like throwing dirt on the person's name that is associated with .
Speaker 3You know certain things , but I mean the , the people I have to sneeze , the people that I fuck with the promoters , that I fuck with the people that I actually want to do things with have sense . Not as I won't , because I won't say that the people that do not align with the way I think don't have sense . I just feel like it's business . Some things are business and some things are personal . And , um , the stuff that's business , I keep business , and the stuff that's personal , I keep personal . I hear all that . It's like a roundabout way to talk about what we're talking about .
Speaker 2But but I feel like at the same token it's it's still categorized as petty yeah , it could be .
Speaker 3I feel like there's a . If there was another word that is synonymous with petty , that's like unintentional , I could understand it being like that , but for me really , it's just like I think it's okay to know what a situation is for you and to move different based off of that . But I agree , like for some people , yeah , if I explain that to them fully , that could be petty , but I don't know . I feel like we can move on because we can talk .
Speaker 3I know , but it was just an example , like I said like that's not me being um intentionally petty , but I do think , like if I think about myself , but it is intention , though , right no , I mean , I just feel like for me , at the end of the day , like me , not going to somebody's event is not going to have a bearing on whether it's a good event or not so we can move on .
Speaker 2But you can't say you intentionally do something but it's unintentional right . That doesn't make any sense , because in order for you to do something you have to have intention right right , especially you can do things without .
Speaker 3I don't think you can .
Speaker 2That's why I said , like when you say you can be unintentionally petty , petty that's like very hard to do , like that's .
Speaker 3That's basically saying you believe that you're better than everybody no , what I'm saying is that some things come across that way even though that was not what would come off as petty some , some of the things that I say , like I can be very um direct .
Speaker 2That's your own affect and that's and i'm- not talking about anybody else .
Speaker 3I'm talking about myself . I can be very direct and some of the things that I say come across as petty , but it's just a matter of fact but .
Speaker 2But I also am . Very .
Speaker 3Direct yeah , but I don't think that it depends on the situation . If it's a particular situation and I say something and it comes across as petty , then then then that's what it is , but that that was not my intention . My intention was just to probably state my opinion , to give an asked and answered . It could be a myriad of things , but I just think that for me personally , I'm not one of those people that leads with bad intention in anything that I do . It may just come across that way , but in my head I never do anything with ill intention and I put that on everything that I love .
Speaker 2Do you think that pettiness is even a useful form of emotion ?
Speaker 3no , I do think it just comes from the fact that I am a very passive aggressive , but I feel like , no , yeah , I think that you know , it would fare better in the world if people were just direct with their approach to everything and everybody . But I also think of conflict and confrontation , and those are two things that I don't like . So I would just prefer to be passive , aggressive , say things in a gentle , playful manner , or to just do it in my own Suki style , which is kind of like Just like keeping it funny but also being dead ass , serious , sure .
Speaker 2Yeah , sure , okay , and that's just tact too .
Speaker 3I think my tact in the way that I say things because I be serious but like you never really know if I'm like joking or serious but you really think that men are the most petty yeah y'all are petty as hell , like you be gossiping I don't gossip .
Speaker 2Actually , when's the last time I gossip ?
Speaker 3not with me , but I'm sure when you get with your people you be gossiping like men be gossiping . You gossip , everybody gossips , but men be gossiping like y'all be in the business , y'all be in . You know the phrase men's business and women's business came because somebody along the lines got things crossed and I feel like nine times out of ten is probably a nigga . Most of the conflict that happens on social media or most of the discourse comes from a nigga being in women's business .
Speaker 2Well , I don't do that at all .
Speaker 3No , but we're not talking about you specifically . We're talking about the world . That's true , that's what we do on the podcast . We talk about y'all .
Speaker 2Okay
Complexities of Dating With Children
Speaker 2. So then what's the most recent petty situation you've seen ? Oh , the Russell Wilson versus Future .
Speaker 3That shit is petty , but I mean , I feel like that shit is hella petty . It's petty on Future .
Speaker 2No , it's petty on Russell's part .
Speaker 3What is he doing Besides raising another nigga's kids ?
Speaker 2See , that's what y'all , that's what women do oh see there you go , got you . I said women .
Speaker 3Bring out that misogyny , because I knew it was in you . It was not . I knew that misogyny was in you . Sure , bring that up about you .
Speaker 2Sure , let's say it as a man we all understand that when a single baby mom is single , she has every right to date whoever she wants to date .
Speaker 3Okay .
Speaker 2Right , but there is no . We understand the good graces , we understand the play date . Hey , I want to be with this woman so bad that I will make sure that I win her child over . But , shumbo , there's a line when you start raising this kid like he's your own and I have . No , this is not me trying to justify anything of anything of what future has done . I'm gonna just say it like this you have no right to dictate what that person like you a stepdad , you are a stepdad . Your role is that . So when decisions are made in the house for that child , if the mom is not making it she needed to call the pops . I don't care if the pops is future . It's not a decision you make together and you exclude the father and the fact that future actually spoke up about it One . I guess it's because he's messy and we all know this .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2But the second part is that like hey , at the end of the day , that's my kid , like that's my seed , that's one of my loin , you feel me ?
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 2And that's something that Russell won't have ever .
Speaker 3I don't care With that particular child , but he has other kids with her . I don't know . I just think that , like , if a nigga not doing what he's supposed to do as a father , then you can't get mad at another nigga doing his fatherly duties . I don't see no problem with that . I feel like and also this is a separate topic that we can talk about for another day Don't come over here with no kids asking me to be stepmom , because fuck them kids . No shade to your kids , see and I was petty and I wasn't intending on being petty , but for real , that's not petty .
Speaker 3That's preference . That's what I was just talking about earlier . You told me that having a preference was petty .
Speaker 2No , but you're taking a situation where you're putting your own preference as being it might be considered petty , but that's not petty . It's own preference is being it might be considered petty , but that's not petty . That's it's petty because of the world's view , but in all actuality it's not petty if I say , hey , I don't want to be with somebody who got a kid . Unfortunately , I don't want to be with nobody who has a kid . Yeah , don't matter how great you are of a person , yeah , I need all the attention no , it's well , that might be your reasoning .
Speaker 3Mine is just because I don't want to be in a situation where , like I can't not that I believe in discipline , but I don't want no kid to tell me that I can't tell them what to do because I'm you're not my dad . Well , you , motherfucking right , you can go find that nigga Like and tell him to take you to basketball practice if you want to , or whatever the case may be .
Speaker 3You're not my mom , you damn right , and because of that I'm not going to be cooking you dinner today . You can figure out how you're going to eat Now . They're calling CPS on me and I told this nigga that I didn't want to raise this baby .
Speaker 2So that is actually petty .
Speaker 3So let it be .
Speaker 2That's petty .
Speaker 3Let it be .
Speaker 2But mine's petty too . I'm not saying that I need that much attention , I really don't . But if it comes push , cut and the shove and you be like , damn , my kid's sick , I got to take care of it , I'm going to be like , okay , well .
Speaker 3Have a good one , have a good one . I just don't think that it matches .
Speaker 2Like .
Speaker 2I feel like you know , in this people just need to date folks who match their lifestyle , like you have to date folks who ? But you don't meet people like that . Who doesn't ? You don't meet people like that . Like what do you mean ? You meet people ? You meet people by living for the people who actually do like I . I know I can meet somebody who is in the same life frame I am because I actively go out but for people most generally , most people are doing it on dating apps so they don't know if you have kids . They only know you through your , your avi .
Speaker 2I feel like oh , your profile picture yeah um , I think you can but because , like , how are you supposed to tell somebody got kids ?
Speaker 3if you look at it , on your dating profile , have a picture with the child that's not information .
Speaker 2People tell nor should you put that out in front street , because there's pedophiles there's true there's creeps true , yeah child .
Speaker 2I just feel like they talking about you know , we're getting to the age to where , like folks , the number of people who are dating have children as opposed to don't yeah , it's really normal and the pickings are going to be slim well , and they , they have a , they have a rule of thumb the closer you get to 30 , the more the dating pool of people who are single without children is doing it gets smaller and then when the other side they say if you for a woman , specifically if you're single over the age of 30 and don't have no kids , they say what's wrong with you as a guy ? It's great .
Speaker 3Yeah , they're like , oh wow you've made it this far , you're lucky , you're lucky .
Speaker 2Yes , that's what they say .
Speaker 3So I mean it's or you're fortunate enough to have some money so you can kill them . Sure , because if I ended up pregnant today , send the 500 you said it already . You said oh yeah , I say it all the time , this is not news .
Petty Conversations Among Family Members
Speaker 2We are a very progressive podcast .
Speaker 3Yes , trigger . Warning , we kill kids .
Speaker 2No , we do not . Don't say that shit like that . What the fuck we ?
Speaker 1don't do it , the hell what we don't kill children .
Speaker 3What the fuck .
Speaker 2Can you recall ?
Speaker 1something .
Speaker 2Pet , something petty that you have done recently . Recently , yeah , yeah , yeah . So I've been going back and forth with my brother on something , and I keep saying that I was like you have a family . I'm single , yeah , and he's like and he said nigga ain't nobody nigga . I know I'm married , thank you . I know I got kids .
Speaker 3Amen , god bless the home .
Speaker 2And it got to the point he said I'm thinking about other folks . I said I don't give a fuck about them niggas , fuck them niggas , like what ? But that's again . But he's like hey , blah , blah , blah , I know what ? Again , I'm talking a very roundabout way because I believe in principalities . You know , I'm a Christian , also I'm Yoruba . We believe in principalities .
Speaker 3Tradition .
Speaker 2Yes , yes , exactly so . I'm not going to speak .
Speaker 3Rules of order .
Speaker 2I'm not going to speak words and have people try to sow seeds in my sow discords in my field . Do you feel me ?
Speaker 3What the hell are you talking about ?
Speaker 2You ain't watched Greenleaf .
Speaker 3No , I did , but it's hard to get into .
Speaker 2What For people who like acting ?
Speaker 3It's drama . It's just dramatic in a way that's like too much for me . Like I like shows , I do , like you , like soap operas . So that's why you like Greenleaf , cause you used to watch soap operas .
Speaker 2You like reality TV shows ?
Speaker 3I do , but I , oh , it's a lot of drama , but it's that's more like I don't know , I don't know what it is about , greenleaf , that I didn't like . I just felt like Black people who are wealthy , I don't know , probably the church , I don't know . I don't know , I can't tell you what it is , but I watched like the first couple of episodes , like the first couple of seasons , for sure yeah , it definitely gets redundant , but you know it's a good show .
Speaker 2But what I'll say is this um , what the hell ? What was he talking ?
Speaker 3about the pettiest thing you've done . Oh yeah , the pettiest thing .
Speaker 2That was the pettiest thing I did with my brother and my brother actually , he got , he got hot , and then I was like oh , why are you getting hot ? Because he's like no , motherfucker , I don't keep . I was like I knew what he said motherfucker . What did he say ? He was like nah , motherfucker I'm thinking about the other motherfuckers oh true okay , so , okay .
Speaker 3So let's talk about that , like , when you are in a situation where things get petty , how do you resolve the , the , the situation ?
Speaker 2Oh well , me . I usually take a step back and then I'm like , yeah , my bad G .
Speaker 3Yeah , I , I'm very quick .
Speaker 2The thing about me is a lot of people don't notice I talk a lot of shit but I am so quick to apologize . I , I , if I know .
Speaker 3I've done this to me .
Speaker 2I've definitely apologized to you .
Speaker 3Then one time you've apologized to me . I just gaslit you , I'm sorry .
Speaker 2I apologize , I don't I mean . I don't apologize often cause I don't often .
Speaker 3You're often not wrong or you often just don't apologize .
Speaker 2No , I don't Cause you . You would assume that I do a lot wrong , but I don't do that much . Actually , I'm a pretty decent human being to Yemi , but , yeah , usually that's what I do . But because me and Tunde have such a close relationship and we talk literally every day , we literally were like we didn't have to apologize . It was like nah , bro , you was right , you was right .
Speaker 3But I was right too .
Speaker 2No , it was like you , right . I was like da-da-da , we'll do this . And then he was like nah , he's like nah , I feel you . I see what you was talking about , but that's how me and Tune communicate . It's a very like . We're both very passionate people in different ways , so it's hard , you know , when you have two very passionate people it's always like butting heads . But then when things are smooth sailing , it's smooth sailing . The last party thing I did to Yemi was at our most recent event , and it was whenever you asked for help . I found a convenient excuse to say no , you didn't know at the time , but I felt very jaded because she decided not to talk to me all week and I was like you're not going to talk to me when you want me to do labor , but you can't even say hi or hello to me . That's it , simple , simple , tell me if I'm wrong .
Speaker 2The people , the people tell me if I'm wrong people .
Speaker 3No , no , no . Let the people , let the people sound off , but I'm going me like I don't know what it is . But people just like I'm not even trying to be like to my own horn , but like the people who literally love me and they be acting like they don't and I just , I just be living my life like what do you talk about ?
Speaker 2I wasn't even being passive . All I wanted is a hi , hello , that's it . It's not hard . You see , we live in the same house , yes , and I think it's the weirdest thing . When somebody can walk right past , you know that you're there and don't say nothing , and he took it so personal and didn't say anything .
Speaker 3But then , yeah , yeah , I would just say this , like and you , the people will probably say that I was being petty , but like we in here setting up for the event and you , a man , why , why is you mixing drinks when you see people moving ?
Speaker 2furniture . First of all , don't that ? I actually did cut my finger . You saw the band-aid .
Speaker 3I did Okay , but then you said it . And once you said it I left it alone . But before that I just outside looking in because I had went to the car .
Speaker 2I actually was going to do that right away , but then I was like you know fuck it .
Speaker 3Let the women do that , because that's women , women's business . One thing , no . Or did you let ? Did you let ? No no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , go ahead . No , no , no . Or did you let the way you felt about not getting a hello deter you from doing men's business ? That's very petty . And that's , that's that's that's crazy that you allowed that to happen .
Speaker 2Let's start One .
Speaker 3Because you cut your finger .
Speaker 2One . Let's start . Yemi , you are a very sexist person in the wrong way . I'm not . That was just very sexist In one way Towards woman . Now I will say this I'm not . I will say this .
Speaker 3I respect all the sexists .
Speaker 2Yemi knows . One of the things Yemi knows is if you , if you fail to acknowledge me as a human , that just irks me , for whatever reason I did not not acknowledge you , but you were like you have not been the most .
Speaker 3let me talk to this . Let me talk to you , know , let me have a full conversation with . Deji Hi , hello For what we live together . Like , Deji wants to be greeted like he's a Nigerian uncle and I'm his .
Speaker 2Hi hello , I'm his mate , what ?
Speaker 3That's something we grew up on . I give you a head nod , but you were upset because I was not giving you conversation and I just didn't have that for you last week . What ? No , I knew you were sick .
Speaker 2Most of the time I was in the bed . So what are you talking about ? Thank you for admitting that , because when you talk , I was most of the time I was in the bed .
Speaker 3So what are you talking about ? Thank you . Thank you for admitting that , because when you talk about hi hello , I can't fucking , I can't even breathe , for real , Because .
Speaker 2My head is hurting . I don't like that . I can't breathe through my nose .
Speaker 3You could say hi .
Speaker 2I spent most of the week .
Speaker 3Why would I do that ? How are you doing ?
Speaker 2How's your week going ? Because I do that .
Speaker 3I do that , when do you text me asking me how am I doing ?
Speaker 2Because I just go in your room I'll be like , hey , how are you doing ? Yes , yeah .
Speaker 3When you feeling all right , but I'm sick . What the fuck ?
Speaker 2I don't give a fuck what anybody's saying that's what you're supposed to do when you like day people are going to be like well it seems like Deji loves Yemi a little bit more than Yemi loves Deji . And now you know what ?
Speaker 3All I'm trying to say is this Don't let that be the hell you die on . Don't let that be the hell that you die on .
Speaker 2It's not but what I was trying to say . All I wanted was a hi hello , Because then , when the event comes , you're over here trying to dictate me . You can't dictate .
Speaker 3Yeah , but we're doing business . You shouldn't have let that affect the business .
Speaker 2I also didn't want to cut my finger three hours before the event . Okay .
Speaker 3No problem . Did you cut it really bad ? Because you don't have a bad cut .
Speaker 2It was one of those joints where you pull the nail and there's a hangnail and it starts bleeding .
Speaker 3Oh , so that incapacitated you . I feel like you was just being petty and you took it out on everybody else . I I feel like you was just being petty and you took it out on everybody else .
Speaker 2I learned not to get in front when women are doing . You see , I didn't do a lot of talking . I let y'all run it when we have the post-mortem tomorrow and we talk about it when are you going to be ? Here .
Speaker 3Oh , okay .
Speaker 2Oh , I might have to go to Chicago but I'll be on the call . But yeah , when we do a little post-mortem I probably get bit into , which rightfully so . There's a few things I need to get bit into , but also I'm going to do some biting because I did not know the full scope no problem that's it , you don't have to do no biting .
Speaker 3You could just be like I was unaware of certain things but you know that's fine .
Speaker 2But you're right , you know I'd be petty , but my petty foot is my pettiness is taxal , like I am I don't think that was the right place for you to do that , but but it's not the point .
Navigating Pettiness in Relationships
Speaker 3What I'm trying to say is that my pettiness is usually 100 and I had no idea which makes it a little , which makes speak to you , because I was sick all week and if y'all y'all can still hear a little bit of congestion in me now to this day , it's because disregarding somebody makes them feel like they're not . I've told you , oh you . You've been feeling inhumane , but that's not because of me inhumane .
Speaker 2I said I feel very human , but I'm just saying you've been feeling less like myself . Yes , yeah you know , I'm not , I'm not , I'm not , I'm not clicking on 110 like yeah , so when you do things you have to just think you .
Speaker 3You be thinking it's millen ill intent and I was literally sick all week , so I'm not thinking about you .
Speaker 2I'm sorry you don't have to be thinking about me . That's not what I'm saying . Listen , I see you hello , I guess , but also like we live together someone walked through the door , take everything off , come into the kitchen , look at me and then go upstairs like what , what ?
Speaker 3that's crazy , because I always do that , did you ? We live together , I see you every day ?
Speaker 2what the fuck ? You will say something , something that will suffice as a greeting . I don't give a fuck . If it's a fuck , I couldn't even greeting . I don't give a fuck . If it's a fuck , I couldn't even talk . I'll give a fuck .
Speaker 3If it's a fuck , you or hey , nigga or whatever , you know whatever oh my goodness , not only was I sick , but I was also on my period , so I was not worried about what they had going on . Life is life happens without you .
Speaker 3Day g like life always has okay , and we happy that we have you in it to live , but let's move on , because that's honestly , even the even talking about this is very petty Like this is so below , below us . I'm very laid back , I'm even keel , I'm joking , I'm kind of go with the flow .
Speaker 2Wherever you need me I help . But the one little passive , the one little toxic thing I have is my pettiness and I know I try to break it in so many ways . I'm still trying to break it to this day . But I'm a very petty ass person . Like I'm not talking like respectfully , like I'm a disrespectful in-your-face type of petty person . But if I don't choose to be petty with you , that usually means I don't give two shits about you . And I've come to realize when I don't want to give my energy into pettiness towards somebody that means that , like my life will be good without you .
Speaker 3I think the pettiest thing you could do to somebody is just Be indifferent . Just like I don't have good without you .
Speaker 3I think the pettiest thing you could do to somebody is just be indifferent , just like I don't have nothing for you . Yeah , I don't have nothing for you , cause , like , even if you are on the attack , like in a mad , like in a negative way , like you talking shit about them , you throwing dirt on their name , like you're still giving it energy , but I think the pettiest thing you can do is just leave it alone , pay no mind . What happened between you and who , who are you talking about ? I don't even know that person exists . What they're doing , like , what earth they working on ? If it's this one , if it's the next one , like I don't think I would ever .
Speaker 2I would never talk dirt on nobody's name .
Speaker 3Do you think like that's real petty though , like in life , Like if someone you're dating talking bad about them , that's petty . But also like if you see them in public not acknowledging them . That would probably be the worst thing you could do to me and I'd probably snatch you from like a hood . Actually , I probably wouldn't do anything , to be quite honest , I probably wouldn't do anything . To be quite honest , I probably wouldn't do anything . I'd probably be really sad about it . That's always tough , though , because it's like how did it ? And and yeah , well , I mean like if you're not talking to the person because you're just indifferent to the situation .
Speaker 2Like , yeah , like I have people I don't talk to , though , because I feel like , if I talk to them , something might come up like and I don't mean like come up romantically , like something might come up in conversation .
Speaker 3I just meant like in general , like you could just have a friend that you fought out . You felt , that's what I'm saying , that's what I that's what I meant .
Speaker 2Like it could be like that damn son . So you just let me , you just let me go out the way and never reached out and I try to hit me nothing yeah , I have a bad .
Speaker 3I have a bad thing about like I'll be wondering what my friends are doing , that I'm not really close to anymore , but also like I'm not in the position to invest too much into relationships . But I would . I really do like I really wish I could be one of those people that just has like a really strong relationship with like a particular group of girls . Um , this is crazy because I'm in a sorority , but I feel like , yeah , like I just want to .
Speaker 3That's something that I need to unpetty unpetty is that pettiness or is that just like you , just be tired I'm uh , I would say so , but I just feel like for me I just need like my own . You know , I think it's very hard as we become adults to like form relationships , platonic that are substantial .
Speaker 3So I just feel like for me , if it's not my own , if it's not personable or personal , if it's not exclusive , I kind of don't really want it and I feel like everybody already has that established . But you know , I don't know , that may be petty of me and my thinking , but that's kind of how I feel about that .
Speaker 2Um yeah , you know I'm always twisted , I'm torn , you feel me .
Navigating Pettiness and Relationships
Speaker 3I still think that the pettiest person you know is a nigga .
Speaker 2So I doubt that . So you said who's the pettiest person you know nigga .
Speaker 3So I doubt that . So you said who's the pettiest person you know ? A nigga , no , who ? No , not like directly , but I feel like when I think of people who I'm asking you though no , I mean , I don't have a specific person because I I don't know but I do know that the men that I , that I have around me , that I associate with , they be saying some petty ass shit .
Speaker 2They'd be petty the pettiest person I know is in this house yes , who is it ?
Speaker 3it's not you okay , I was about to say because you could . You could call it out .
Speaker 2You could say my name no , you know who it is . She's the pettiest person . You know who she is . Your mom yeah . Is she the pettiest , yes .
Speaker 3She just has a very innate way of like undercutting and like just like doing things . That that's what I'm saying . I'm saying like her pettiness is not intentional and- .
Speaker 2But it is . But it is Because she didn't get what she wanted .
Speaker 3But it is yeah . When she don't get what she wanted , but it is yeah . When she don't get what she wants , she become the worst , the prettiest . I just never understood that . Like how could somebody like my mother is a grown like , an adult woman and if she does not get what she wants out of her children , she will treat us like the stepchildren and we're from her loins ?
Speaker 3She pushed me out early because I was supposed to be born at the end of july you pretty much was I just , I just I feel like I should have been a leo to be quite honest , things , things would make so much more sense . But , honestly , if I was a leo and I was a july leo I would feel a type of way because I feel like leos in august make more actually . I don't know , I like being a july leo . I would feel a type of way because I feel like leo's in august make more actually . I don't know , I like being a july baby in general , but we're getting off topic , I think I don't know . But yeah , our mom is pretty petty , so that's where we get it from . Our dad is petty as well .
Speaker 3Extremely , you know what it is . I think it's pisces , because both of our parents are pisces petty , petty Pisces . If we didn't name these episodes with the letter G , that would be the name of this episode Petty Pisces . Cease to cease , because y'all bitches be petty as fuck . I'm thinking about it . Who's the messiest person ? You know the pettiest person . You know it's a Pisces .
Speaker 2So now you just went from it's a pisces .
Speaker 3So now you just went from it was a nigga to now it's a nigga who's a pisces and there's no shade to the nigga that's a pisces , that I know , but he's pretty petty . But like , not in like a mean way , just like in a , you know everybody has it in them everybody has it in them .
Speaker 3I think everybody has the ability to be petty and your maturity is how you decide to take it , and I feel like , for me , everyone is looking for me to be like this petty , yummy , yummy , mean person and I really am not like . I really , at the end of the day , for me , I feel like my reaction to things is to just not care sure and it's not about being intentionally petty . I just don't give a fuck about a lot of stuff sure friend you don't believe .
Speaker 3So I said sure , friend , I just feel like I'm not . I don't know , I don't think I'm intentionally petty . I feel like I got into a situation where , like the people in the room thought I was being petty because , like I completely forgot about a situation . It was like a card game , you know , like those drinking games and a card came up and it was like a card game , you know , like those drinking games , and a card came up and it was like something that was like messy right and I didn't peep until it clicked for me that the card had like some sort of significance for some people in the room .
Speaker 3And when I finally got it I was like oh , no , no , no . I was like oh . And then everybody else was like damn , suki , you being petty .
Speaker 2And .
Speaker 3I'm like , I'm really not . I really don't give a fuck about what y'all be telling me . I don't know shady shit , but like you , just don't be remembering . I just like . I feel like if it's not my business , it's not my business ?
Speaker 2It's not my business .
Speaker 3I do live by that rule too . The rule because people will call you petty and it's really just . I'm not one of those people that are that invested into shit that don't got nothing to do with me . If I tell you all the stuff that I have going on in my life right now , you would be like girl . How do you keep it all together in your brain ?
Speaker 2I don't , I don't , I just when it comes in .
Speaker 3That's when it comes in . It comes out like and if it , if it comes in and it don't got shit to do with what I got going on in my life , I'll push it to the side . So that way , when it happened , when it happened and it clicked , I was like oh , and they thought I was being petty and I was like no , I literally forgot and I just remembered . But now y'all got me out here as public enemy and it didn't even give that , because but I understand where that comes from , because I just give that off I tell you it's the affect , but that's something you can change I think so , but I honestly like we talked about it before you can't change people's perception of you because but fuck them yeah it's not really for them to .
Speaker 2Honestly , everything you do is for yourself . If you change and you like who you are , then are you good ? Yeah , that's what ? The same thing . I used to be a very petty person . So the fact that I'm talking about this openly and letting people know like I used to do extreme , like my pettiness knew no bounds , like I would be in here plotting plot , it was like one of my most DV . It was like the one time where people could not like I'm a very transparent person , like you usually know what I'm doing a thousand , a thousand miles away , but when I would want to be petty , I'm telling you right now I was unmatched , I was unmatched , I was unmatched and that's it . But we could move on because , you know , I feel like we beat this to a head . So let's do some . I have a segment , but I'll wait for us to do our regular stuff .
Speaker 2Oh , you over here doing stuff different . Now no , we said , we were gonna do this . Really , remember back you were like oh yeah , let's talk about . Uh , this is r&b thug , where we discuss musical lyrics let's do that then okay . Well , you have to pull up the musical lyric okay , what's the song ? Saturn remember , um sure , but we don't I have other songs as well .
Speaker 3I don't know if that necessarily fits with the theme of today's episode . Not that it has to . We can pull up Saturn and dissect it .
Speaker 2We could go over Kill Bill , but we've already done .
Speaker 1Cezanne , I might kill my ex . Not the best idea .
Speaker 2Oh , I actually have a really good song that we could do .
Speaker 1How did I get here ? I might kill my ex . I still don't know .
Speaker 3Actually I feel like we should do Saturn for a different episode . Okay , that's fine . Yeah , let's do the ghetto intellectual because , deji , you actually asked me this question and I thought this would be a good answer , good question for you to answer on ghetto intellectual .
Speaker 3You asked the question , ask this so we're not doing r&b though no that's fine friends , we'll save that for a different episode , because I actually need to look at the lyrics and interpret them for myself . But I did what ? The lyrics that I did here from saturn was fire . But we're gonna save that for a different episode , um , because that could go with something else 100 but% . But the gut and intellectual question is this and I feel like it comes in line with pettiness you said after someone has left your life , when is an appropriate time to re-invite them back into your life , if that's even an option ?
Speaker 2Oh , I did ask you that question .
Speaker 3You did ask me that question and I said save that for later . Also don't Me personally , okay . So look , asked me that question and I said save that for later . Also don't me personally okay so I think it's contingent , but like , yes , you can go ahead uh , I mean obviously , if it's contingent , but if it's a ghetto , answer shit I guess this is always your ghetto .
Speaker 2Intellectual answer my ghetto intellectual answer is sugar and spice and everything . Nice type of answer it depends how I'm feeling on the night . You know what I'm saying honestly , honestly .
Speaker 2That's real , that's the real shit like I'm saying that like like if I'm feeling like man , I can't believe this person did this shit to me , like because you know I'm saying that and like because you know every night is different , but in totality , if I step back and be like , oh no , this person was really good to me , it would be it'd have to be . How did how do I think this person was really good to me ? It would be it'd have to be . How did how do I think this person perceives me ? If I feel like the person perceives me pretty favorably , which yeah like for most of the time .
Speaker 2There's never been somebody who I was messing with . Don't get me wrong . I got . I have my strikeouts where I would never reach out to that woman again . You know what I'm saying . Oh , so this is somebody that you dated . No , oh , I was saying this in general because I was thinking about how a lot of my friends are getting married and you were , and you've been complaining about the dates and I'm like shit , what do you want me to ?
Speaker 3do , just because I don't like when people plan they uh , they like birthdays , weddings , around holidays , right , like I only get this holiday off for work and or for whatever and you want me to spend it with you celebrating you . It's no shade , but I just feel like I get it financially but also like I want to do hood rest , shit or you know , and I don't want to have to be limited to the things that I can do but I started because I want to celebrate you or be a part of your union or whatever the fuck .
Speaker 2So that's why I started thinking about it , because I was like damn , like you had a whole this time to kind of get back into contact with me , but because you want my gift . You know what I'm saying .
Speaker 1Oh , you want me to be there for your special day .
Speaker 2Like what the fuck .
Speaker 1So what you ?
Speaker 2gonna do . We gonna catch up and talk like we friends . You know what I we gonna catch
Reconnecting With Past Relationships
Speaker 2up and talk like we friends . You know I'm saying there's a lot of things that we we've . I you know like I myself have lived life , so I can't only imagine what you have right , yeah , especially when I've tried to reach out .
Speaker 3So then it's like interesting . I feel like it's contingent on how things ended . Like if they ended on good terms , then yeah for sure . If they ended on bad terms , definitely not . But if it's like this , like ambient in between hot , cold type of thing , I don't know , if you feel like that , you should probably just wait it out . Also , just think about like what , for what ? You know what I mean . Like if someone is not in your life anymore , what's what's to having them re-enter your life or be a re-part of your life , like in a different capacity , because of course it's not going to be in the same capacity . Like I'll be thinking about that , like , especially when I get drunk , because I'll be like damn , I got shit to say . But I'm also like for what ? Because the worst thing you could do is the worst thing that could happen for me is I like , uh , like get off of my , my ego or whatever , and I reach out , and it's not receptive the way that I would want it to be .
Speaker 2That's the worst thing that can happen .
Speaker 3That's why I do that shit sober , because then I'm like at least at least you did it with a clear mind , yes , but you know , the alcohol give you courage not me , well , because you courage to say the shit , you , you , the spicy shit yes but at least when you do it with a clear mind , you could say this , that you did it like with , with the , with the sound decision , like you did it with , like , yeah , um , I feel that twofold .
Speaker 3Like I feel like the same way when you drunk for show , when you sober , for sure . But I just feel like I want to make sure that when I do get lit , my mind is is thinking the same way that my sober mind would think , but just without the verbato , like without that extra push , because I I'm okay with , you know , talking my shit , sober , drunk , what all the things . But , um , yeah , so that was ghetto , intellectual . What do y'all think ? Do y'all think you should be , um , reaching out to anybody that has left your life ? And do you think it's contingent ? And what is it contingent on ?
Speaker 2I think it , and this crazy thing is , I think it's easier when it's been a lover as opposed to a friend . Oh , I think , because for me , I always have a challenge with friends because I'm like man , we , we , we parted . Because we parted . Whatever happened happened . It is what it is for sure .
Speaker 3I mean , I give everyone the this space to come back into my life like for whatever , whatever it was romantic and not romantic , like , but you just have to .
Speaker 2I just need at this point in my life , like for what you know , but for me , it's because I know how much I invest and if I'm gonna do that with a friendship bruh , we locked in . So whatever you tell me you're going through , we going through it . We finna go through this transfer , we finna get it together . We finna get it done . You feel me , but as a same token , I don't want to be in that same position where I try to lean on you and you not there .
Speaker 3I would never lean on anybody that left my life Like that's not Right . Well , well , well , well , okay . No , I say that and now that I think about it , that might be because then that your friend , somebody that you dated , they know you better than anybody else and it's like I feel like for me , I just have this thing where I'm like , damn , this would have been such a good thing to talk about with this person because they understand , I don't even think about it .
Speaker 2That's what I'll be thinking like .
Speaker 3I'll be thinking about my friends and I'll be thinking about like situations that I feel like damn they would have . Like this is just . I just need to tell them this and I feel like if you know it'd be weird I do that with music .
Speaker 2I do that with music , music tweets like anything , like , like anything I'd be like damn motherfucker would love this song . Yes , sure you would have loved that song , you know .
Speaker 3Yes , yes , yes , yes or and yeah , that's more so what it is and in those situations like you kind of just got to eat that , but that's , that's like that's a good topic to talk about with like a mass of people of course that'd be , uh , that's a um , that's a , that's a think , that's a think joint yeah , well , I was also thinking like a sunday session , like songs that you , that you want , that you could send to somebody yeah , um , okay , so let's move on to things I send ag on twitter .
Speaker 3I sent this tweet to you march 14th , 2024 , the year that we're in right now . Um , it's a video of the of the fight that broke out on the on the train in new york .

Speaker 2It's a good time . What are we missing ? I ?
Speaker 1don't know , I didn't really like new york .
Speaker 3I feel like if you went again , I gotta go one time I feel like there's like bits and pieces from the trips that I've gone on that I appreciate , but in totality the times that I've gone to New York , I haven't had like an experience that made me feel like , oh my goodness , I need to go back . Like I've been there twice for work and the second time . The last time I went there is when the fires from Canada was coming so a bitch couldn't breathe . The sky was yellow and like I was actually like the last day I was planning to go out was when the sky was yellow and I was like , damn , I gotta be in a hotel room all day and that's fine . I went and got a chopped cheese and I went to the not to the bodega , but I went to one of these like dispensaries , cause they just sell weed anywhere buy me some weed and I just got high in the hotel room . I went to sleep .
Speaker 2I woke up and caught a flight back home yeah , the bodega , I don't know , but the chopped cheese , but you , I'll go to back to new york for the chopped cheese . But you go to new york at the right time , because I ain't never been in the summer , and that's the thing I just need at this point . I just need to go to new york in the summer .
Speaker 3Yeah , I'm straight yeah , I want to go to new york . In this , I feel like that's the experience I'm missing , because I haven't gone to new york to just be like a tourist for real . It's always been like for work , or we're doing rolling loud and we can't do anything but go to the concert , or even when we never do that , even when we went for , when we went for barnaby white .
Speaker 3That was a good weekend , though that was that was a good weekend because , like , we only had the one day where we were tied to stuff and then we were able to do other things . But even like that last day when we went to soho , I was like I'm ready to go we went to soho like the area , not soho house I was about to say we went to Soho to do like shopping , but there was no places in the shop in Soho . Really yeah .

If they make it to the , if they beat Iowa , or if it's Iowa and LSU again playing on that side , I'm getting an Iowa jersey with Anissa Morrow on it , because that's a superstar right there . She was at DePaul .
Speaker 2Wait , is she on ?
Speaker 3Iowa . No , she's on LSU , she's from Chicago . She went to DePaul for two years and then transferred but when she was at DePaul she was averaging like 27 , 28 points a game , like double digits rebounds , like averaging a double-double . She transferred to LSU and she's literally like one of their best . Well , they have a lot of good players on their team but she's one of the best players but she just gets overlooked because Angel Reese but she's dope as fuck and I need Samara for the the win . I'm team LSU all the way for the repeat . Got you Fuck . Kaylin Clark , no shade .
