Input: a cool concept. Jesus Isikai. Fucking copyright that. Now that you've said it. Copyright that right now. Now that I've said it, someone can go write a story about it. I don't fucking know. Uh, have you guys ever had sleep paralysis? Yes. One time. One time. I have literally seen sleep paralysis demons. Have you? Yes I have. Okay. I've never seen. Wait, that's not a meme? Yeah. It's not a meme. I've never gotten to the demon part, but I've definitely had it. Because I didn't believe in sleep paralysis until I got it. And it's so fucking weird because it's like, to explain what sleep is, is basically you're awake but your body's asleep, essentially. Your mind's awake but your body. So I believe when you go to sleep, your body excretes a, chremical. Your mind excretes, a chremical. Your mind excretes a chemical that paralysis your body while you're sleeping, I believe. Something like that. Yeah. Sound like some Hunter Hunter shit. Yeah. And so what sleep paralysis is is that that chemical's still in your body, so you can't move but your mind is still awake. Really? That doesn't sound right. Is that right, Julian? Can you Google that? Watching. You're conscious but you are not able to move. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I've only had it once in my life, and I though this was nonsense before, and it was like, it was on Joey's couch. What? Really? Yeah. When was this? Just to say, I mean, I've never know that. Hadn't proven any concrete cause. Demons. Your sister was there. Your sister had come. And I remember, it was weird because they were speaking about me and I was trying to get up to say hello, but I couldn't. I was face-down on Joey's couch, trying my best to wake up. I was fully aware. I couldn't open my eyes, but I was fully awake, and I couldn't move my arms or legs. But it didn't feel like I was paralyzed, it felt that even though I was willing my body to wake up, my arms and my legs, my whole body wasn't listening. Your eyes were closed, because when I had sleep paralysis, my eyes were open. Oh. My eyes were closed. I could feel, I was well aware that I was awake, and I was aware of everything that was going on around me, but I couldn't, it just took a moment. And I felt like there was a battle. When I was telling myself to wake up, it wasn't doing it. It felt like I'm pulling a chainsaw chord. I could feel like I was trying to get through and it wasn't happening. I didn't understand why. And eventually I woke up. For me it was so fucked, because I clearly just remember opening my eyes, looking around. It was like five in the morning. I saw the clock. I was looking around. Your eyes were moving around? I was darting my eyes around, and I'm like," Why can I not talk or hear anything or move my body?" That's so weird. It was so fucked. You couldn't hear anything? I couldn't hear anything either. I couldn't hear anything. I tried to open my mouth to say something.

Output:
- The group discussed the concept of sleep paralysis, with one participant recalling a specific incident on Joey's couch.
- A theory was proposed that the mind excretes a chemical during sleep to paralyze the body, which was compared to Hunter Hunter.
- Julian confirmed the condition involves being conscious but unable to move, while the narrator described the sensation as a battle to wake up.
- The narrator detailed an experience where they were fully aware but unable to open their eyes or move their limbs, feeling like they were pulling a chainsaw chord.
- Another participant contrasted this by recalling opening their eyes and seeing the clock at five in the morning while unable to hear or move.
- The conversation concluded with the realization that the inability to hear or speak was a shared and disturbing aspect of the experience.


Input: understand why. And eventually I woke up. For me it was so fucked, because I clearly just remember opening my eyes, looking around. It was like five in the morning. I saw the clock. I was looking around. Your eyes were moving around? I was darting my eyes around, and I'm like, uh, why can I not talk or hear anything or move my body? That's so weird. It was so fucked. You couldn't hear anything? I couldn't hear anything either. I couldn't hear anything. I tried to open my mouth to say something and my mouth just wouldn't move. See? This is one of those things where I feel like it's definitely the mind. Like this is like a fucking, uh, a glitch. Well, yeah. What the fuck else do you think it is? The demons? This is why I think, it's a chemical, I'm like, I don't know though. Because to me it just sounds like a neuron fuck up in your head, like you hear the uh, it's restarting. It's trying to figure out. So what happened? Did you go back to sleep after your sleep paralysis? No, no, no. I woke up after 15, um, 10 minutes. Oh, I went back to sleep. Oh, because this was, I'd had a full sleep, and I was waking up, and I woke up and I just couldn't move my arms or legs for a little bit. It wasn't like a, it wasn't like I was trying to move it and it wasn't moving, I could even figure out how to move it. Really strange. I don't understand how this works. So I remember the one time I got sleep paralysis, and I literally saw a sleep paralysis demon. What? What did it look like? Okay. I call it a sleep paralysis demon. It just look like a ghost. So what happened is, I was sleeping on my bed and I remember not waking up immediately, but I remember just opening my eyes a bit and seeing this ghostly figure. I was like, uh, what the fuck is that? Immediately I punched my eyes open and I see this female figure praying above me or something, Sydney. No. It wasn't Sydney. She was like, um, no. But it was literally this, looked like a nun or something, that was just praying above me. And I start freaking out because I'm just like, what the fuck? There is a literal ghost floating above me right now. How old were you? I was around 24. Oh, okay. Yeah. So I wasn't young, I was, yeah, around 24. I remember my mind going into fight or flight mode. I start panicking. Because obviously if you see a fucking ghost floating above you, you start panicking. So I try to start moving my fucking body to do something, and I remember my body just would not move. It was a terrifying experience. That's so strange. Yeah. It was a terrifying fucking experience. And I remember, it took me about 10 minutes, um, 10 to 15 minutes for me screaming at my body, just like, Aah. Go on. Move. Move You're going to die. You're going to die. You're going to die now. This sounds like a dream. It wasn't a dream. It felt like, No. Because it felt like a dream and not like a dream at the same time. Because I was obviously

Output:
*   One speaker described waking up at five in the morning unable to speak, hear, or move their body, attributing the sensation to a neurological glitch or chemical issue.
*   The conversation shifted to a second speaker who recounted a terrifying sleep paralysis event at age 24 involving a ghostly female figure resembling a nun.
*   This second speaker recalled seeing the figure praying above their bed, which triggered an immediate fight-or-flight response and panic.
*   Despite screaming at their own body to move, the speaker remained paralyzed for approximately 10 to 15 minutes while terrified of dying.
*   Both participants discussed the nature of the experience, distinguishing it from a standard dream due to the intense physical inability to act.


Input:
and I remember my body just would not move. It was a terrifying experience.
That's so strange.
Yeah. It was a terrifying fucking experience. And I remember, it took me about 10 minutes, 10 to 15 minutes for me screaming at my body, just like, "Aah. Go on. Move. Move You're going to die. You're going to die. You're going to die now."
This sounds like a dream.
It wasn't a dream. It felt like, No. Because it felt like a dream and not like a dream at the same time. Because I was obviously in my room but after 10, 15 minutes, I actually, finally was able to will my body to just sit up. I remember I immediately sat up, I looked up and I could see the figure literally fading away as I sat up. It was super, super fucking surreal.
That's why I'm just like, "Oh, was that the fucking sleep paralysis demon that everyone fucking memes about? You mean that thing actually exist? What the fuck? What the fuck? That's so weird.
That's like some Persona shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe it was just my Stand. I don't know.
I don't know, man.
You just lost your Stand, Garnt. You could've gotten a Stand.
Put a dick in my mouth right now, please. Please, I'm begging you.
All right. Another question. When you dream, do you visually see your surroundings the exact same way? Because I don't-
What do you mean?
Okay. I'm seeing this right now. I'm seeing the real world. It's way fuzzier when I see things in my dreams.
Aah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's say I know there's a table there but I can't give you the detail of it. I know what everything is around me.
You just know that object is there.
Yeah. I know everything's around me, but I can't visually see everything that's happening. Really strange. Do you have this as well?
No. Mine's in fucking RTX, on 4K,
See? That's so strange.
60 FPS, man.
Mine's in a fish-eye lens.
That's why for me,
What?
That's why for me,
What the fuck is wrong with us?
Sometimes it's so hard for me to tell the difference between when I'm dreaming and when I'm awake because my dreams are so vivid and so, I don't know. Like I said, they have a lot of depth to them that sometimes I wake up and sometimes I immediately know that I've just woken up, and sometimes it takes me a few moments to realize, "Okay. I'm actually awake now. This is the real world. I'm not in dream world anymore."
I think, for me, things that are fuzzy is things that don't exist in reality. If it's like a table for instance, then I can clearly see that it's a table. But if it's a fucking fairy, then it will probably look fuzzy.
Well, you know when you're trying to remember a moment that happened, you have a picture of it in your head. You don't have it in 4K, RTX, the way that you saw it. It's fuzzy. You remember where everything was, you think. You know what I mean? The way that you recall things that happened, it's like that, the way I see stuff in dreams. I don't see it perfectly. If I'm focusing on this table, I know Garnt's there, for example, but I

Output:
- The speaker described a terrifying experience of sleep paralysis where their body would not move for 10 to 15 minutes.
- They recalled screaming at their body to move and eventually sitting up to see a figure fading away.
- The group discussed whether the event was the sleep paralysis demon, a Stand, or something from Persona.
- Garnt was jokingly told that they lost their chance to get a Stand.
- The conversation shifted to comparing dream visuals to real-world graphics, with one person describing dreams as "fuzzy" or low resolution compared to 4K RTX.
- They concluded that fuzzy details in dreams likely correspond to things that do not exist in reality, such as fairies.


Input: a table. But if it's a fucking fairy, then it will probably look fuzzy. - Well, you know when you're trying to remember a moment that happened, you have a picture of it in your head. You don't have it in 4K, RTX, the way that you saw it. It's fuzzy. You remember where everything was, you think. You know what I mean? The way that you recall things that happened, it's like that, the way I see stuff in dreams. I don't see it perfectly. If I'm focusing on this table, I know Garnt's there, for example, but I can't see Garnt. Does that make sense? - Yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Items that I'm aware that are there in the dream, I don't see them unless I'm then paying attention to them. - Yeah. Because then your brain has to render out. - Right. It's rendering. It's rendering. (laughing) - Because you know it's there but your brain's just like, "I don't want to render this out right now. I know that Garnt's there, I just don't want to render out." - You got to upgrade you brain's graphic card. (laughing) - I mean, it's true. It's true. Because when I picture Garnt now, I don't need to see that Joe's in the corner of my eye because it's in the corner of my eye. But when I'm trying to remember the whole picture, in my head, when I'm in the dream, it's like that. When I can't- - Your brain does a sequential rendering? - Are you still running a 1060? What's going on? - My draw distance is low as possible. (laughing) When I'm walking up to the building, it starts to come into frame. It's a load of shit. What a weird fucking, What a weird shit. It's like that, though, where the dream doesn't exist unless I'm focusing on it in the dream. - Have you ever had a dream that's taken place in somewhere that you're very familiar with? - All of my dreams are in places that I've been to in real life. - See? Most of the time my dreams are in new places that I'm not aware of. - Really? - I don't know what it is. - I think my brain is capable of coming up with new locations in my dreams. - What I think it is, I think it's stitching together things that I've seen in passing or a picture. - Right. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - And what I, I can't visualize a lot of things but I just know what's happening and I have an idea. It's really strange. - A lot of my dreams are in my house. They take place in my house. - Really? - That's strange. I never have dreams in my house, ever. - But all sorts of fucked up shit happens in my house that shouldn't happen in my house. - Wait, wait. Which house? Japan? Japan? - The house that I'm currently in. - Oh, the house- - Okay. When your dream start, I'm sure it's not, credit sequence, shot to do, Joey opens up, "Hey." Do you just wake, It's like, "Game start." You just start in a weird ass location, and you're like, "What the fuck is going on?" - No. It's always mid conversation. - What? - I never remember the start of my dreams. - I'm just like, "Oh, wait. Oh, I guess we're here now.", kind of thing. - I guess I only remember my dreams when I realize I'm

Output:
- The speakers discussed how human memory and dreams resemble low-resolution video rendering, where details like "Garnt" or "Joe" are known to exist but not visually rendered until focused upon.
- They jokingly compared this mental process to upgrading a computer's graphic card or fixing low draw distance, noting that the brain only renders necessary elements to save resources.
- One speaker mentioned that their dreams almost always occur in locations they have visited in real life, while the other believed their brain stitches together new places from past memories.
- The conversation shifted to the speaker's personal house, where they noted that strange events happen in their dreams even though they never actually dream inside their real home.
- They debated the start of dreams, agreeing that unlike video games that begin with a credit sequence, dreams typically begin mid-conversation without a clear starting point.
- The discussion concluded with the observation that people often only realize they are dreaming when they wake up or suddenly notice the strange context of the situation.


Input: Japan? - The house that I'm currently in. - Oh, the house- - Okay. When your dream start, I'm sure it's not, credit sequence, shot to do, Joey opens up, "Hey." Do you just wake, It's like, "Game start." You just start in a weird ass location, and you're like, "What the fuck is going on?" - No. It's always mid conversation. - What? - I never remember the start of my dreams. - I'm just like, "Oh, wait. Oh, I guess we're here now.", kind of thing. - I guess I only remember my dreams when I realize I'm in a dream. So I never remember how I get there. - Yeah. I don't see the PlayStation boot up logo. It's just like, "Oh, I'm in the game." - Just like, "Oh, Dreamcast start. Brilliant. Okay." - It's almost weird because I feel like when I'm dreaming, I'm watching a video and at some point in the video I'll know that's me. Does that make sense? It's a series of events unfolding, and I'm not necessarily constantly in that brain of the person experiencing it. This is so strange. This is really weird. - Even stranger question, have you ever dreamed in third person? - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - That, to me, is the weirdest fucking dream because for some reason, in my dream, it makes sense that I'm seeing myself in third person. Even though I've never experienced that in my life. - That prison one, it was weird because I remember, this is going to sound so strange, I remember shooting the guns, but then I also remember watching me after shooting the guns. - So it flicks between first and third person? - And the weird thing is, is that I then was able to feel the emotions of both. When doing the dream act and then when watching me do the dream act, This is so, This is so, I've never spoken about this before. - I've never spoken about his before either. - Now that your talking, Now that you're making me think about this, I'm realizing how weird this sounds to say out loud. This must sound so bizarre. I don't know if anyone else is- - I don't think a dream conversation is going to be normal. - I've never had a conversation just about my dreams before with anyone. - The best way I can describe how it is, is, you know when you're playing Halo and there's that theater mode, where at just any point you can just unclip from the camera But I'm not choosing where the camera goes but I'm seeing it from a perspective, and I don't understand who's or what it is occasionally. - Yeah. Sometimes I have amazing cinematography in my dreams. I don't know how. - If only the YouTube videos could match. - I don't know how it happens but sometimes I'm in first person and then I go to a new area or something and I have this really- - Area unlocked. - A new area on the map or something and my dream switches to this establishing shot of this new landscape that I'm in. - Garnt's swamp. - And I'm just, And I remember thinking in the dream, "Damn. That looks cool as fuck.", and then I load back into my character or something. I don't know how to describe it. It's so fucking weird. - Wait, your dream has cut scenes? Is that what you're saying? This man's dreams literally

Output:
*   The speakers discussed how their dreams often begin abruptly in strange locations or mid-conversation rather than showing a setup sequence.
*   One speaker described a recurring sensation of watching themselves from a third-person perspective while simultaneously experiencing the actions in first-person.
*   They noted that during these third-person segments, they could still feel the emotions associated with the actions being performed.
*   The conversation compared these dream experiences to video game mechanics, specifically referencing "Halo" theater mode and cutscenes that establish new landscapes like "Garnt's swamp."
*   Both participants admitted they had never discussed their dream mechanics in such detail before and found the topic bizarre.
*   They jokingly remarked on how their dream cinematography was superior to real-life YouTube videos.


Input: and then I go to a new area or something and I have this really- - Area unlocked. - A new area on the map or something and my dream switches to this establishing shot of this new landscape that I'm in. - Garnets swamp. - And I'm just, And I remember thinking in the dream, "Damn. That looks cool as fuck.", and then I load back into my character or something. I don't know how to describe it. It's so fucking weird. - Wait, your dream has cut scenes? Is that what you're saying? This man's dreams literally has cut scenes. And when it's over he goes back into first person. Holy shit. - I don't know why. Sometimes I dream in games or- - Your dream sounds like a Kojima game, dude. - Yeah. Sometimes I dream in games and sometimes I dream in movies, which is why it never makes sense to me how I can possibly dream in third person, and at the time it makes it makes sense. Because you never see yourself in third person. - By third person, do you mean like in a movie, from a movie camera standpoint? Or are we talking GTA, behind yourself? - Sometimes both. - Really? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I think it's weird really because, again, I know that I'm in this situation and I fully understand that it's a dream, but I never, ever think that this is wrong. Because I'm in the moment and it's what my mind is making up, so it always feels natural when I'm in this dream. - For some reason, I'm just fucking remembering this now, talking to you, every time I'm in an interrogation room, it's never POV interrogation room, it's always side, - It's the interrogation shot? - Yeah. It's always side view. Like this is fucking JCS Criminal investigations or something. It's so weird. I don't know why. - That sound fun. Anytime I have a conversation in the interrogation room, I'm always in third person, I don't know why. It always feels like I'm in control of what I'm saying. - I'm sure that's purely because we've just consumed media where they portray those things like that. I'd be interested to see if another person who has never scene an interrogation scene in a movie, how they would view that. - Yeah. Because I've never been in an interrogation in my life. So I guess it makes sense. - I've also found, that if I'm highly anxious about something when going to bed, there is a 90% chance my dream is going to be about that. - Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. - That's only ever happened a few times, and that's only ever happened with homework and exams for me. - I was playing that Pogostuck game recently and, - Did it give you nightmares? - Yeah. I had nightmares that I was stuck in this game. And that I couldn't stop playing this game. I couldn't beat it. Because I was making, I played it for eight hours and I made no progress. And then I went to bed, all I could feel was me playing the game in the dream, and then I was playing it and I couldn't get out. It was horrible. - That's a nightmare. - That was a nightmare. - That's a true nightmare. - That was a horrible nightmare. - That's a scarier nightmare than you dying. - The worst part was, I knew that I was in a nightmare, and I was getting more annoyed

Output:
- The speaker described a dream sequence where they unlocked a new area called Garnets swamp and experienced a cutscene establishing shot.
- The group discussed how the speaker's dreams often utilize third-person perspectives similar to movies or GTA, particularly in interrogation rooms.
- They noted that the third-person view in dreams feels natural and controlled, likely influenced by media consumption like JCS Criminal Investigations.
- The speaker mentioned that anxiety before bed, specifically regarding homework and exams, frequently dictates dream content.
- They recounted a specific nightmare involving the game Pogostuck where they were stuck playing for eight hours and couldn't stop.
- The speaker emphasized that the most terrifying aspect of that nightmare was the realization that they were trapped in a loop and becoming increasingly annoyed.


Input: game. I couldn't beat it. Because I was making, I played it for eight hours and I made no progress. And then I went to bed, all I could feel was me playing the game in the dream, and then I was playing it and I couldn't get out. It was horrible. uh that's a nightmare. that was a nightmare. that's a true nightmare. that was a horrible nightmare. that's a scarier nightmare than you dying. the worst part was, I knew that I was in a nightmare, and I was getting more annoyed because why am I wasting time where I could be actually doing this? But instead I'm in the nightmare, stuck in a cycle playing it in my nightmare. what a weird thing to dream up. um do you ever have moments where your dream is so intense that you don't feel like you've slept at all? yeah. I wake up more tired than before I went to bed. no. I've never had that. sometimes, because you go on such an emotional journey in this dream, or at least I do, that I wake up just exhausted. so what do you do then? Just get another eight hours? I don't. I get up. I get up but sometimes I just feel like I haven't slept at all, just because I feel like I was awake in my dreams, so I really didn't sleep at all. I don't know. It's really weird. the worst nightmares I've had is I go to sleep, obviously tired, and I'm probably not even in the right state of mind before I go to bed, hence the reason why I have the nightmare, and then I have that nightmare. I wake up in that fucking cold sweat, like breaths rapidly "Fuck." I'm so tired after that but I don't want to go back to bed. I know if I close my eyes right now, it's just going to be like, "To be continued." It's just going to happen again. why is it where you have a fun dream, you can never get back into the dream? When you have a nightmare- the nightmares are waiting for you. When you have a nightmare, you go back to sleep, you re enter the nightmare? well, I think it's putting stress and stuff. It's probably a mental state. it just comes out from behind the tree. like Freddy's like, "Hey. guy. Hey. boy. Oh, you sleeping yet? No?" Yeah. I don't know why. I find it so much easier to re enter my nightmares than to re enter my fun dreams. can I get a round of applause, everyone? Because this episode is sponsored by Manscaped.

So since we're on the dream topic, do you guys sleep talk? Yeah, I sleep talk. Really? I don't think I sleep talk. I generally just, this is going to sound terrible, just screams. Are you serious? I shout in my dreams. It's probably every time you die, right? Oh, he died. You've been around me when I've sleep talked. I've never heard you sleep talk. I've heard you snore very heavily. It's not the same. I don't know if you're screaming or just a loud cuddle snore. or snoring, or if it was Chris fucking snoring. Like that. Really? Did you ever sleep talk when you did your subathon where you slept on stream? I muted the mic. Oh, you muted the mic. Just in case I was fighting that dragon that can only be defeated by racism. I only ask because Ahki has recently started sleep talking a lot. And I'm concerned because, by sleep talk, she randomly shouts out phrases that just don't make sense when you think about it in a sequential manner. Ahki is the kind of person who, literally, head touches the pillow, three seconds later she's snoring. Instantly like that, which I'm so fucking jealous of. But then, now it's gotten to the point, where three seconds after the head hit's the pillow, start snoring, five seconds later she says a random thing. And I thought, The first time she did it, I thought she was joking, because it happened in the spa of 10 seconds. So I just started laughing. I remember her, She's like, "All right. Good night.", goes to sleep, starts snoring, and then she just goes, "legs". I was like," What the fuck was that?" Maybe she was in one of Garnt's dreams, she's reading the title card. Chapter 3. Legs. Chapter 3. Legs. And then I started laughing, and I was like, "Come on, sweety. What are you doing?" But she continues to snore. And I was like, "Wait. Are you serious?" And then she goes,

Input: because it happened in the spa of 10 seconds. So I just started laughing. I remember her, She's like, "All right. Good night.", goes to sleep, starts snoring, and then she just goes, "legs" thank you I was like, " What the fuck was that?" - Maybe she was in one of Garnt's dreams, she's reading the title card. watching - Chapter 3. Legs. - Chapter 3. Legs. - And then I started laughing, and I was like, "Come on, sweety. What are you doing?" But she continues to snore. And I was like, "Wait. Are you serious?" And then she goes, "butt fries" um And so I had to shake her awake. I was like, "Are you fucking with me right now?" And she wakes up and she's like, "What time is it?" I was like, "It's been 20 seconds. What are you on?" Because in her head it's like an hour has passed or something. - Again, whenever I sleep, I always know how much time has passed when I wake up. I don't understand how. - Yeah. Syndey has a lot of nightmares when she sleeps. And I know when she's going through a nightmare because she's just in panic mode. I can tell when she's running away from a fucking monster, because she's just, (breaths rapidly) like that. - Too much NTR. (laughing) I don't know. I have to wake her up and be like, "You were in a nightmare, honey. Don't worry. Don't worry. You're in the safe zone. I'm here. I'm here." - Is she like when a dog has a dream of running and they just start kicking their legs? - Yes. (laughing) It's so obvious. It's so obvious. Not only when Syndey is dreaming, but the type of dreams she's having. Because she won't say words but she'll make noises, depending on the type of mood that she's in. So if she's having a nightmare, which is most of the time, she'll start panicking. She'll have a panic attack in her dreams and all this kind of shit. When she's happy she'll just laugh and just smile at all this shit. It's so obvious to say, sometimes I see her and she just as the biggest smile on her face, I'm just like, "I wish I was you right now, Sydney. Because you're having a fun dream right now." - I don't know why seeing someone with a huge fucking grin as they sleep is the creepiest ever. Could you just imagine walking into the room and someones just as they sleep? - That's really creepy. - That's so creepy. - I completely forgot. I don't scream, sometimes I physically laugh myself awake. Something really funny happens or someone said a really funny joke, and I actually physically laugh. And I was just like, "Oh. I was dreaming" - Now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever had funny dreams. - I've never had a funny dream either. - You've never had funny dreams? - No. - No, wow. That's so strange. Now that you've mentioned that. - I'm depressed, even in my dreams. (laughing) - It's always something fucking extreme in my dreams. - Okay. I've never had funny dreams where I guess I'm in a deep sleep, but most of the times. Have you ever had a micro dream? It's when you're really, really tired, and you're not completely, It's so weird to describe because you don't feel like you're completely asleep but then you start hallucinating some shit. - Like a day dream? - No. Not like a day

What does a day dream count to you? Count for you? - Day dream is just, you're just bored, sitting there and you just start imagining some shit. - No, no, no. So you're actually, really physically tired and you start going to sleep. You're not completely in a deep sleep but you still start dreaming as well. So it's half, I would say it's like half a lucid dream because it's so easy. Sometimes I wake myself up by falling over and you get the fucking jerk, and you're like, "Oh, fuck." - The Inception method. - The Inception method. And you're just like, "For fuck's sake. I was so, I was so close to being asleep and then I had to jerk myself awake. And then sometimes someone says something funny in that brief, micro dream and I laugh myself awake. I was like, "For fuck's sake. I was so close to sleeping. I was so close to actually being asleep." - I want to be there when you experience that. Just to see how fucking weird it is from my perspective. Just Garnt just sitting there and just, "Oh." - I've never seen Garnt do this. - Yeah. It's weird. - I very rarely micro dream. I don't know, it's really weird. You must have had the dream where you jerk yourself awake. Have you ever had that? - You could've phrase that better. - Why are you saying it like that? - You could have phrased that better. - Your body literally jerks because you hallucinated that you're, Is there another word I could use? I feel like that's the best, - Jolt. - Jolt? - Jolt. - Okay. Jolt yourself awake. - "Did you jerk yourself awake?" - Yeah. "Did you jerk your, Oh, thank God. You're awake." - "Oh, I'm back, baby. I'm back." - Oh, thank God. - Jolt. I've never used the word jolt. - I'm going to wake up, aah. - I don't think I've ever used the word jolt. - We need some synonyms for jerk right now. - I've had those stereotypical, on the train times, where you're just closing your eyes because it's a long rain ride. And you have that thing where you fall forward and you're just like that. Is that what you mean? - No. I'm talking about where you literally- - Or you're literally in the dream? - You're literally in half a dream and then you imagine falling over or tripping over. - Oh, that happens a lot. Yeah. I do that. I kick my leg out or something. - Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. - That's what I'm talking about. But instead of imagining that I'm falling, sometimes I imagine someone saying something funny or something funny happening and then I just laugh. - So it's an emotional joke. - Yeah, yeah. It's like an emotional joke. - No I don't have that. I don't have that at all. - Sometimes

It's not like I'm full awake. - No. That's what I mean. It's a micro dream where you're not fully asleep but you're not fully awake. And then you brains just like, "Haha, think fast." Think fast, mother fucker. (laughing) - I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. You're fine. Go back to bed. Go back to bed. You all right. - Like sleep walking. - It's just a prank. - Have you ever met anyone who sleep walks, ever sleep walk yourself? - No. No. - My uncle, apparently, used to be a really, really bad sleep walker and sleep talker. My dad would tell me stories of how my uncle, because they used to sleep in a bunk bed. - So bizarre, isn't it? - Yeah. - It's such a crazy thing. - Yeah. And then he'd just, there was one time where, Actually, no. I have a story of when I sleep walked once. The only time, apparently, that I ever sleep walked, was when I was little. I was maybe four, five years old, and apparently I walked into my parents room and I was asleep. And my mum saw it. She was like, "What the fuck are you doing?" And the she realized that my eyes were closed. And she was like, "Oh, fuck. He's sleep walking. I was saying something to her but it wasn't really words. It was just like, (babbles) - "Wake up, you dumb fuck." - No. The moment she went, "Wake up, you dumb fuck.", was when I walked over to the corner of their room and there was a washing basket, and apparently I pulled my pants and tried to pee into it. - No. That's so weird. (laughing) - And then my mom was like, (exclaims) - I have a worryingly similar story. Not of me. (laughing) - That's so crazy. So my little brother had a sleep over with one of his friends. And I was the one who was, I'd stay out awake a little longer than I should have. I played on my Game Boy, whatever. And our house, the floorboards creek really fucking loudly. And obviously I've been in this house for years, so I could tell, based off what creek, where someone was in the house and where they were coming from. And what point they were on the stairs, what point they were

Input: a worryingly similar story. Not of me. (laughing) - That's so crazy. So my little brother had a sleep over with one of his friends. And I was the one who was, I'd stay out awake a little longer than I should have. I played on my Game Boy, whatever. And our house, the floorboards creek really fucking loudly. And obviously I've been in this house for years, so I could tell, based off what creek, where someone was in the house and where they were coming from. And what point they were on the stairs, what point they were like some kind of fucking Dare Devil shit, except only for my house. So I heard someone who kept walking to the middle top of the stairs and then back to my little brother's room, and then back to the stairs, and then back to my little brother's room really slowly. And then after this happened twice, I was like, "What the fuck?" So I went and I watched, and he just walked to the top of the stairs, mumbled something and then went back. What the fuck? And then he went to the top of the stairs, and this is where I was getting worried because I'm like, "What if he just like falls down?" - Yeah, yeah. That's dangerous. - So he just starts walking down the stairs really slowly, and this is where I was like, "What do I do?" Because I didn't know what you're supposed to do when someones sleep walking. I've heard loads of, you've heard myths like, " IF you wake them up they can die.", or something. So I was like, "It seems like he's doing it okay." I didn't want to wake him up because what If he wakes up be like, I would. I'd jump. - It's like, "Think fast." - "Haa. You're awake" (laughing) I was like, " Shit. What do I do?" So I see that he starts walking down the stairs but doing this thing where he's going back and forth, so I'm like, "Guh." And I saw that he was mumbling, so was like, " I think he's sleep walking." So I go, I follow him, and he's going down the stairs really slowly, and he gets to the bottom of the stairs, and so I go to the bottom of the stairs and then he opens the door to the living room and just goes in the living room. This is like the fucking, I don't know, this was a horror film. He stood there, pitch black because I didn't turn the lights on. - Oh, my God. It's so scary. - All I had was my Game Boy SP Advanced, so I light the thing. (laughing) I didn't want to turn the lights on because I didn't want to- - Think Phasmaphobia. - I was like, the shitty max brightness slider up, trying to figure out what's going on and I see him. And he's just standing there mumbling for a good 10, 20 seconds. And I'm freaking out because I'm like, "What do I do?" Do I go and wake my little brother up, do I go tell my parents? Because I don't know what he's going to do. So I was just watching him, making sure. Bare in mind, I was 14, 15. I didn't know what the fuck was going on. And so he's standing there in the middle of this living room and then just slowly starts walking towards the T.V and then walking back to where he was.

Input: Do you have weekday eatin' mode and weekend eatin' mode? What the fuck does that mean? No speed in which you consume the food. I agree. I agree. But also when I think I'm eating this too fast, and then I slow down with like my chewing or whatever, I'm like, "It doesn't really taste any better." Uh, it just makes me more full. Does it? Yeah. And the slower you eat, the more full you get. The slower you eat the more full you get. Yeah. It's because it takes a certain amount of time for your stomach's processor and for a signal to get sent to your brain that says, "Hi, I'm full." So if you actually eat slower, then it's just a much more natural way to eat less because then you'll get full much faster. I think if I'm not like dining with people, I don't really like to take it slow. I like to just eat it and get on with what I'm doing. Yeah, if you're at like a fancy restaurant, I'd like to take my time. I'll be like, "Oh my God, you have to try these bananas, they're dashing." Slowly. Swerves the wine. Oh my gosh, takes one bite, sip wine. Ah. I feel like that's part of the experience. Right? I think part of the experience of enjoying food with me is not just the food. Social aspect. It's the social aspect and also the drink as well. Getting your pair, getting the food paired with like the perfect drink, actually like really enhances the experience. Right? I feel like, just food tastes so much worse when you're eating it alone. Do you not think so? I actually agree with you. You don't think so? It depends if it's like a, b, c grade food. When I have good food, I feel so sad when no one else is around to appreciate the good food as well. I'm like, "This is good man." So you take a picture and you make a Google review. So whenever we got to Meilyne's is good, right? And then Meilyne like, "No." But I'm loving it. I'm like, "This is great." Sometimes I'm just like, "I'm not gonna ask Meilyne, because I am really enjoying the meal right now. And I'm afraid that she's just gonna dash my dreams. No! Yeah, we had. She's like that reviewer that you don't wanna hear the opinion of. Absolutely. You be like, "Just let me enjoy my soda that's online meal Meilyne. I don't care about your opinion." It's a 9/10, right? No it sucks. It fucking sucks. I don't care if people dislike my favorite shows. But when I get to like, when we're at the old studio, and we had like the stone baked pizza right? Yeah. That was really good. Yeah. We loved it. And it was like was at 4.5 or something. It was really hard. yeah, it was fantastic. On Google reviews and we took Meilyne and Meilyne was like, "No. I can't eat it." It's just 'cause I don't like pizza to begin with. What! What do you mean? You're from like America? Wait, wait. Contender for the shittiest take of the year. That's pretty.

I can't eat it. it's just 'cause I don't like pizza to begin with. what! watching. what do you mean? you're from like America? wait, wait. contender for the shittiest take of the year. that's pretty bad. that's pretty bad. why? wait, wait. there's no type of pizza you like? there is a specific pizza, one? that's made in San Francisco. oh my god! oh for fuck! thank you. oh my! ah yes! ah ye! and the entire world groans. the home of pizza, San Francisco. but even though I could only eat like one pizza a year. I don't really like it. what? one pizza a year? yeah. and it needs to be in San Francisco apparently. I have never- fuck, I just felt all the Italians just fucking die. yeah, Italian gasp. mamma fucking mia, what the fuck was that? there's better foods to eat than pizza I think. I just thought every human on earth enjoyed pizza. I just thought it was a mutual love. I just thought it was there. I'm pretty sure it's like a test, for like how to determine if you're an alien or a human. uh, cause if they don't probably love pizza, then they're probably an alien right? because no human doesn't love pizza. what don't you like about about pizza? do you like cheese? I think it depends. it's all about timing for pizza when they get it out, and how long were there cooking it. it's crispy soggy, and like so many places get it wrong. how would you rate Domino's? I wouldn't rate it. it's like not even worth eating? okay. there's some times, there's some moments where you're watching a movie or something during a long break, and you want to eat something greasy, then pizza, the Domino's. I'll eat Domino's. right, right. but it's not like fricking amazing. it's not like amazing. okay. what is like the best fast food then in your opinion? if you say In and Out I swear to God. I like In and Out though. I really like Inn and Out. but knowing how much she loves San Francisco. I actually really like McDonald's. yeah, me too. me too. but American McDonald's or Japanese McDonald's? Japanese McDonald's. it's all the same. no, it's not. no, it's not. American McDonald's makes me sick. have you had American hamburgers? no. American McDonald's makes Meilyne sick. McDonald's hamburgers are out of time. I just get the nugs. nugs are like universally just the same everywhere. when they're freshly fried, oh my god. yeah, yeah. nugs are great. the fries are great.

I think McDonald's fries are the best, out of like the major chains. But if they're like soggy. Actually they're good when they're soggy and cold and they've kind of been like sweating a bit. What is this? What is this? Come on, you're joking. (Meilyne laughing) What is this? Google food reviewer. (Connor laughs) This is the local expert when you go on Google apparently. How to lose your credibility in like five minutes. But also, the Google review thing, it doesn't really mean much. It just means I contribute a lot. How did that start? I'm so curious about how you just- 'Cause you're literally the only person I know who does this. I think it was an obsession 'cause like, there would be new restaurants that pop up and then I'd be the first one, out of everyone in the neighborhood to- That is true Tokyo like switches out restaurants like crazy. Yeah, yeah. It is crazy how fast restaurants pop up and go. Yeah. And it was really cool whenever I log into my Google maps account and be like, "wow! This got 1.2 million views on your photo." I'm like, "Wow!" Yeah. (men groaning) How it feels to be a YouTuber. (all laughing) No, no. Nobody comments. They just look at it which I like, like "Oh yay, they saw it." It's just a YouTube video with the comments turned off. I went to a KFC one time and uploaded a picture of my friend eating a KFC. And for some reason Google made it the front picture. (all laughing) I'm sorry to hear that. It was like you click on this KFC. It's a pretty popular KFC. And it was just him, sitting there eating a KFC, not a flattering photo. Why did you upload that? Because I wanted to see how it works. That's hilarious. I wanted to see how it worked. And I found out afterwards, you can't take down Google photos. No, you can't. And he was furious at me. He was like, "Why did you put it up?" You can take down Google photos. Really? Yeah, I can. It wouldn't let me take it down. Maybe it's the privilege only. (all laughing) You gotta be a google reviewer. Are you in the top 5%? Every week I go on Google maps and it's like, "Your picture is popular." And I'm like, "What the fuck it's my name?" (all laughing) But yeah, sorry to say. So you start reviewing things? Yeah, yeah. When did you get addicted? Was it like immediately or like? Like after two months, I started eating at more places. So do you like go out on purpose to look for new places or do you kind of just like wait till a new place pops up? Well, I get tired of eating the same food a lot. Yeah. So when my husband asks me, "Where do you wanna eat?" I'll be like, "Can we go somewhere new?"

Output:
- The group discussed their preferences for McDonald's, with Meilyne noting that she gets sick from it but Connor and others enjoying the nuggets and fries.
- Connor explained his obsession with reviewing restaurants on Google Maps, which started after noticing how quickly new places appeared in Tokyo.
- He shared an anecdote about uploading a photo of his friend at a KFC, which Google mistakenly used as the front image for the restaurant, causing his friend to become furious.
- The conversation revealed that Connor could not remove the photo initially, though he later learned it might be possible depending on account privileges.
- Connor admitted he became addicted to finding new places after two months of reviewing and now actively seeks out new restaurants when his husband asks where to eat.


Input: But yeah, sorry to say. So you start reviewing things? Yeah, yeah. When did you get addicted? Was it like immediately or like? Like after two months, I started eating at more places. So do you like go out on purpose to look for new places or do you kind of just like wait till a new place pops up? Well, I get tired of eating the same food a lot. Yeah. So when my husband asks me, "Where do you wanna eat?" I'll be like, "Can we go somewhere new?" I just want like that stimulation, that excitement. I hate it 'cause I never used to be like that. And then I moved to Japan and then I'm just like, "I wanna eat something different every day." Thank you. There's so many. Japan has the most, for example, Michelin restaurants in the world. And you don't even have to eat at a Michelin starred restaurant, everything's extremely good. If you're a peasant. Do you rate the Michelin star restaurants? 'Cause I know you've been to a few. I do. I do. You do? Okay. Yeah. But it's also kind of weird if you go there often and then the chef knows you rated them. So they probably think you're like one of the reviewers at this point. There's one restaurant that I really liked. And then I just don't review it 'cause I don't want them to know my thoughts. What makes a good and a bad reviewer? A bad reviewer is just like, "Oh, this place sucked or it is too expensive." 'Cause I normally only give out five stars, and I don't review restaurants I don't like. Yeah, that's the problem. I think a lot of people only review restaurants they hate, or some restaurants they really like. They can't be bothered to formulate a middle ground. Yeah, when I look at a place, and then I see maybe there's only three ratings. And then I look at the three reviewers, and this person only has two reviews. This person has 40, I look at their profile. So you don't look at just reviews. You stalk the account of the reviewer. You're like a jury analyzer you question the credibility of the jurors. Yeah, because for example, if these two reviewers have a streak or record of just giving two stars, why would I trust the review? I just don't think I have the effort to like click on someone's review. It's 'cause you don't care you just Uber eats everything. You don't even check the restaurant before you try it. The people who normally sound like the biggest dicks, other like the local experts. Yeah, yeah. They're always have like the most snobbish reviews, and every time I read them I'm like, "What the fuck happened?" Like he made it seem like. How often do you read Google reviews? If I ever go to a new place, I always look at them. I just look at the stars and I'm like, "Yeah, that looks good enough." Is that Meilyne's influence? No, I just always did that. Oh, okay. 'Cause sometimes people maybe like comment, like the best dish, or something they recommend. Oh yeah, pictures of, 'cause you don't know what to order either. Sometimes I don't really know.

Input: read them I'm like, "What the fuck happened?" Like he made it seem like- - How often do you read Google reviews? - If I ever go to a new place, I always look at them. - I just look at the stars and I'm like, "Yeah, that looks good enough." - Is that Meilyne's influence? - No, I just always did that. - Oh, okay. - 'Cause sometimes people maybe like comment, like the best dish, or something they recommend. - Oh yeah, pictures of, 'cause you don't know what to order either. - Sometimes I don't really know. And occasionally I can't read it 'cause it's all in Kanji. And then I'm like, I point at the picture I'm like, "Give me this one." - Yeah. - "What this guy had." - 'Cause it's like a menu. - What this guy had. You don't do that? - No. Why not? - Why am I the weirdo? - Aren't there menus here that have no pictures and you can't read it? - Yeah, in Kanji. Yeah, yeah. - So you just go through the pictures. - Sometimes you just got to put your fate in God, and just order food. I don't know. - Just throw the dice. - Just throw out the dice. - What you do in that situation is 'Ososume,' ask for the recommendation. - Yeah, yeah. - Whatever he says you're like, "Yes, I hope this is good." - I just get whatever sounds nice. I don't know, like sometimes. - I just (speaks Japanese) that shit. - Well Joey can read. I can't, I'm dumb. - Yeah, yeah. - There's some like handwritten menus, and I'm just like, "What? - Oh yeah, those are so hard to even remotely figure out what's being said. - Oh, if that's the case then I asked the waitress. I'm like, "What does that say?" - I actually have the way- - If you can't read it then use the comic sounds. - Sometimes I've seen some handwritten ones especially like really fancy like Japanese restaurants, where they're like, love to use that like traditional calligraphy style and I'm like- - Yeah. - This just looks like squiggles to me. - Like the one's with the (speaks Japanese) menu. - That is the one that changes everyday. - The daily special. - Like the daily special. - I mean like daily specials I always ask, but like I've seen menus that is literally illegible, where it's just so messy and they always use like, fancy terminology that just doesn't work outside of that context. - French, Italian? - My favorite moment of eating in Japan is when you get to Riokan. It's like 20 courses, and they just come over to you and explain every dish. And I just look at the thing for two minutes straight just nodding. - See, I'm actually interested in those kinds of menus though. - I don't know what they're saying to me. I'm just like, "What the fuck are you saying?" - Yeah. - I'm like nodding, nodding, all right. This is getting is a little excessive. - In your head it's like, "This is food. This is also food. This is a food." (laughs) - I think you eat it or take like half a bite, and then tell them, "What is this that I just ate?" And then they, that's better. Like if they have time to explain. - But like usually what they do is they bring all the food out right. And then they explain it and

(laughs) - I took a picture and I have to leaves notes next to it. - I'm a local expert I'll have you know. (laughs) - Are you the local expert? Do you get that badge as well? - I think, I'm not sure. - Like I'm just so curious, how often do you have to eat somewhere new to be in the top 5%. - I have no idea. I haven't been top 5% since like 2017 or 2018. - That's worrying because you used to do quite a lot of reviews. - I think there's more now - How many reviews does it take to be in the top? - I have no idea. - It's becoming more mainstream. - Maybe. - There's a Japanese guy as well who's trying to review every single Starbucks in Japan. - Oh yeah. I know that guy. - And it's like ridiculous. - Do they taste all the same? - That's what I wonder. What can the difference be? - Yeah, that's like going to every McDonald's in Japan. - He has to probably order the same thing from each place. So otherwise it's not a good comparison. Right? - But I think they have the seasonal menus. - Yeah, now they have Starbucks Japan just released a thing where every single prefecture, has its own frappe. - Yeah. - Oh does it? - Yeah. - That's such a Japanese idea. - It's actually really cool. - It's kind of genius. - They all look super unique as well.

It is by far the worst. - No! - Have you had Mikan jelly? - I don't give a shit. - Mikan jelly's bomb, that shit's bomb. - Why's the jelly? - Jelly is literally the dessert of peasants. - What are you talking about? What are you actually talking about? - Jelly is incorporated on all kinds of high-end meals. - It is literally the cheapest dessert. That's the cheapest one.

Jelly is literally the dessert of peasants. What are you talking about? What are you actually talking about? watching Jelly is incorporated on all kinds of high-end meals. It is literally the cheapest dessert. That's the cheapest one. It's the cheapest one. How? Someone needs to take this privilege away. um Cheap can be delicious though it doesn't have to be expensive to be delicious. It tastes like mattress filler I don't wanna eat it. Yeah because you don't just want jelly by itself. Right? Sometimes you want jelly by itself, but if it's like incorporated in the dessert. You don't like coffee jelly with a bit of ice cream? No, I can't stand it. It's awful. Ah, I love coffee jelly. What don't you like about jelly? It tastes like nothing half the time. And when it does taste like something, it's like you could've made, you could have made something else. You could have made literally anything else with this flavor profile, and it would have been 10 times better, 'cause it didn't feel like a floppy mess in my mouth. I'm gonna have you try Milkman jelly. It's just a very light flavor, it's not too strong all the time. It's just very light. Sometimes I don't want a dessert that punches me in the face. It's like slippery and- It's just lighter than like an ice cream. Is it more so the texture you don't like? The texture is a massive part of it. But I also find that- So you don't like gelatinous? No. And I find that the flavors can be replicated in any other dessert that is just better. Like what? Like ice cream, ice cream is better. Ice creams? You mean an ice cream? Ice cream and jelly don't taste anything alike. What are you talking about? With coffee jelly you could have done ice cream coffee. You know what I mean? Yeah usually you get like a vanilla ice cream with coffee jelly. Like that shit's great. Just put like an espresso on it. I'd just rather that, don't do this jelly shit. Fuck that jelly shit. I'm sorry ice cream and jelly tastes nothing alike. Even if they have the same flavor profile. Yeah. It's like two totally different things. It's the texture I don't know. I find that it's like, I never- I just don't think you're a fan of gelatinous things. No and it's also like when they do it I'm like, "Really couldn't afford gelato or ice cream really?" I feel like that's what's going on. Peasants. I'm like, "Oh, okay." Conner's at a Michelin Star restaurant, they're serving him with jelly. Have you been to a Michelin Star restaurant before? Yeah. Oh, you have. And if they gave me jelly I'd be like, "Wow! I saw where you skimmed on the budget." I can make 20 liters of jelly in like 10 minutes, with like 10 bucks. I don't want this shit. Do you know how hard it would be to fill a bath tub of ice cream? That shit's going to

Do you know how hard it would be to fill a bath tub of ice cream? That shit's going to actually taste like nothing though. Like the jelly that comes out of like higher end restaurants actually has a lot of flavor in my opinion. Yeah, if it's like fruit they'll extract the juices from the fresh fruit. Oh God I hate fruit jelly so much. Fruit jelly is the best. Why? Fruit jelly is the best. Fruit jelly is literally the best. Why would you ruin fruit by making it into a jelly format? It's literally the worst. No, there's some fruits that are better. Yeah, like Milkan. Yeah, Milkan. I would argue that fruits make better jellies than they do ice cream. Yeah. I agree. No. Actually yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. You can try it's full potential. The texture of how it's changed by being cooked in the syrup. Look, look, look fruit jelly is refreshing as fuck. Fruit ice cream is not refreshing. A lot of the time. Unless it's sorbet. Unless it's sorbet. Banana ice cream does not count. Banana, strawberry, cherry. Banana ice cream does not taste like banana. I will take strawberry jelly over strawberry ice cream any day. Oh! What? I've never had a good strawberry jelly though. Well strawberry jelly's normally like the cheap, the cheap jelly. The "jello type." The jello type. It's only The Cheap Jelly But Like, so is strawberry ice cream. Strawberry ice cream is normally the cheap ice cream as well. I don't like strawberry ice cream. Oh my God! Oh my God Joey! This is why we're brothers. This is why we're brothers. Well listen, I don't like it either, but I would take it over jelly. Fuck off. Strawberry ice cream I think is just like the worst ice cream flavor. It always tastes like fake strawberries. Yeah. Banana though. Banana's good but it's not, that's not the same flavor as an actual banana. But why does banana blend itself so well to everything? Like everything banana flavor, tastes amazing. Yeah, I agree with that. And like everything orange takes so artificial and shit. No. No. Yes. No. Like orange ice lollies are like orange ice without lollies. Why did you point at me? Why the fuck did you point at me? I didn't say anything. Did you guys catch that slang, Meilyne Why did you? Let's just talk about the lollies. Did you catch that?

I don't know why you pointed at me though. that was just slang language. it just the way it just came out of nowhere, like "Oh, lollies". I can't believe you man. we call them ice lollies as well. oh, the UK? the lollipops, right. Americans call them lollipops too right? yeah, lollipops. don't change the subject. so yeah, orange tastes like shit. no, you're wrong. tastes like shit? you're wrong. I think the orange desserts tastes better than banana desserts. oh, no. oh come on. do you like mousse by the way. yeah, I like mousse. mousse? sometimes. do you just hate desserts Connor? I love ice cream. we found the reason jellies and gentlemen, we found the reason. categorically right? I have not had a single dessert, right? that I'm like ice cream would just be better than this. not a single dessert made me think ice cream is better. I can find you a dessert. or like apple pie. apple pie is great. it's okay, but I can find you something better. what's the thing that you said sorry? you only like apple pie because it works well with ice cream. anything that works well with ice cream. do you like chocolate cake? I love chocolate cake. what kind of chocolate cake? the Japanese chocolate cake? oh I don't think I've ever had Japanese chocolate cake. or like a volcano chocolate cake. American chocolate cake. sometimes icing is just too heavy, you know? sometimes it's like cement like and. it gets lighter when you microwave it. that just sounds. that's the tidbit for the day. no, it's so good. why would you want mousse? 'cause to me mousse is just an inferior ice cream. mousse does taste bad most of the time though. sometimes you just don't want something as heavy, as ice, just have cream, which is a cream. just have less ice cream. no, even a spoon of the cream fills your mouth with the cream though. if Americans saw the Haagen-Dazs size in Japan, then they'd cry. I cried when I first saw it. have you seen how tiny? no, to me that's the perfect size. yeah. I can't have any more Haagen-Dazs than that. but I won't lie, I do wish I had the tub. just so if I really did have a bad day, I could chow down the 2 liter tub. like dessert's the one meal where I'm really picky because it depends on what I've eaten directly beforehand. that dictates what dessert I order. right? you can't just order the same dessert every time. I don't even eat dessert. I agree that ice cream I think is the best dessert. it's either ice cream.

I'm like, "Bullshit." - That shit's a lie. - Bullshit. You just didn't eat enough main course, that's it. - No, it's actually true. - Fuck you off. - You could check your mind to it. - The way your taste buds work is that they get sick of one flavor so when you introduce a new flavor, it makes more room for it. - No, just not with me. - That's how you conquer buffets. You switch back and forth. - Conquer buffets.

Well, if you do feel like walking around on the strip all day. - Yeah. - And you have enough room, then yeah of course a Buffet's fantastic.

So I feel like when there's a block and you have to call someone over and be like, "Can I have more meat?" That's how you get the fresh one. But you can also like go up to like the chef at the buffet and be like, "Can you get me the fresher one?" Depending at the buffet, I know the Las Vegas ones had that. Yeah, Vegas you can do that. There's some really weird buffets in Japan though. I went to one near the At the Switch Buffet? A company has buffet. It's like an American chain or something. American chain, here? It's apparently supposed to be an American dining chain. Sizzler? Sizzler? Was the one? Sizzler in Japan has like the famous salad buffet bar. Yeah, and it was the most. There's sizzlers in Japan? Yeah there's Sizzlers in. Oh my God! I think I went to one in Tokyo stadium or Edabashi stadium. The one near Edabashi. Right? It's like a stage, the massive stadium the park. Tokyo Dome? Tokyo Dome. That's it. Yeah. There was one in there. Was it Sizzler? Or some form of chain. A Bubba Gumps? I don't know, it wasn't Bubba Gumps. I went to it and I was like, "All right, what's gonna be on the buffet?" It was the weirdest selection of stuff you can imagine. Right. The dessert was like first in the buffet as well. So it was like ice cream, and like French toast but this was like 5:00 PM. What do you mean first in the buffet? When you get your tray and stuff, the dessert was there first. Oh weird. And then I was like, "Okay." And the next tray is like, self service taco station, but there was no sauce or guac. So it was just like beef. This is beef wrapped up on. On the tortilla. Yeah, yeah. Tortilla pack. Both of those. Mexicans crying. It was just beef and the tortilla. Yeah. There you go. I was like, "Okay. Yeah. This makes sense." Next up it's like, pasta, Italian pasta. And it was like, "I don't know what this pasta was." It didn't taste like anything. It tastes like a weird Arabiatta, it was really strange. And then in the middle there was like a bunch of salad, but the salad was strange as well. There was like barely any lettuce. There was like chopped oranges, like a bunch of croutons and stuff. I was like, "What is this?" Is this in the hotel? Yeah. Next to it. At the hotel buffet? No, it wasn't a part of the hotel. 'Cause Tokyo Dome Hotel also has buffets.
