2nd Date Update PODCAST: Grammar Patrol

Oh I thought she had worms, Well maybe she does. I don't know, Emma, have you been checked for worms? I do not have worm? Okay, good? Oh man, congratula out there. I don't have congratulations. But I think that the rumor mill is already working. Yeah. I've already posted a blog about it. I've tweeted about it. Emma, you got some damage control as far as that goes. But tell us a little bit about the dude you want to call today. His name's Kevin. His name's Kevin. We

met in the waiting room at the vets. That's really cute. It was really sweet. Actually, you know, we're both there with our dogs. I have a German shepherd, my Boxley. He's the sweetest um and he has like a little like a little teacup poodle. Okay, I guess you know, a little tiny thing reversal on those dogs. Yeah, yeah,

just a little tiny thing um. Okay. But it was funny because, you know, his dog came up to Boxley and was just like sniffing around, and Boxley was just like laying there totally chill, and they were just getting along. And because they were getting along and we were kind of chatting each other up and you know, laughing a little bit, he was like, I'm going to the dog park later. If you want to come, we should totally go. Oh like a play date. Yeah, like a little dog

play date. It was just for later on that day. Yeah. He was just like, this was my plan. So I was like, yeah, sure, you know, if everything goes well here, we can you know, meet you up at the dog park. Okay, cool. So how long were you guys at the dog park together? We were there for like a little over half an hour. Okay. While we're there, there was this guy it didn't look like he had a dog there. We're pretty sure that

he didn't have a dog. That's weird. It was so weird really, But then we noticed him like going around to all the women that were there, and he was like going and like hitting on them at the dog park, trolling for dates. He's read one too many like dating blogs. It was so weird. It was really uncomfortable, Like at least if you're gonna do that, like have a dog, yeah, rent one for the day, if you need to find a dog, if you're going to go to the dog park and hit on people. But I mean, wasn't it

just kind of funny to watch? Why would it be so uncomfortable for you? It was uncomfortable because you could see that the women were comfortable, like Okay, he like was persistent. Like if one girl like was like hey, you know and walked away, he kind of went towards them again and started like talking to them. Like you could see that people did not want him near them. Okay, but your date was with Kevin? Or did this guy

pick you up and then you left there? And this guy is that who we're actually calling today the creepy dog park guy? No? No, no, my date was with Kevin. So how did things like end with Kevin? So at the park, Kevin went up to this guy, so Kevin went out with him. Kevin and the weird guy hit it up. No, no, He confronted him and was like, hey man, you're just kind of making everyone uncomfortable, Like if you don't have a dog, you really shouldn't be here. Um.

It was really brave and there's his ground. And I was worried that they were going to get into a fight, like that's what it looked like, and I was like, oh my god, please Pleasely was not on this like first. So they didn't fight, which was great. The weird guy laughed and then all of a sudden, like everyone in the dog park was clapping for him. Oh really, like like hearing him on, Like, yeah, you got rid of that weird guy. He was hilarious but awesome at the

same time. Yeah, and so great to see like he has a moral high ground and he'll stand up for other people, but he won't resort to violence, like all awesome things that you want to see in a person that you want to date. Seriously, it was very much a turn on for me. So after the park we went and got coffee as like a little celebration, and after coffee. We just had this really nice long hug appropriately long or way too long. I mean I think

appropriately long. It was really sweet, it felt really comfortable. I felt like we would both have this attraction, but we were like, oh, we should have another date, you know, before anything else. So and you haven't heard from him since, and I haven't heard from him since. Is there anything that happened other than the weird guy that you think might have ruined your chances at a second date? Honestly, the only thing that I can think of is when

we weren't getting coffee, I had asked him. I was like, oh, you know, how did you get fiful? Like what's that story? Like did you adopt him? Or you know? Some people get dogs different. It's like I have a friend who found her dog on the street and took it to the vet. Nobody claimed her, so then she was like, Okay, if the dogs he'll beat and I'll keep her. Yeah. I got my last couple from backyards. What. Yeah, there's

dogs rumming around backyards all over the place. Yeah. Some of them are like gotta like, you know, snip the security wires and stuff, but you can just take them. It's crazy. So I was, you know, didn'ts on how he got his dog, and he said it was his ex girlfriends and she wasn't taking care of him. I just I don't know if I was prying a little too much about that, but I feel like that's a normal question for a dog owner, right, I mean totally,

but I got that feeling. He was like, Okay, I don't want to talk about this, so I mean, I don't know. I just know that he have them calling back, all right, sad, Well, we'll play a song then come back and call him and get your second day up date? All right, Okay, Okay, hang up rooking Jubil in the morning. Seconds, I'm realizing how much these second day updates have just made me lose faith in people. What just all over the place, Because we have Emma on the phone for

a second day update right now. She wants to call a dude named Kevin. They met at the vet because they both have dogs, and then they went to a dog park and hung out and then had coffee. Nothing really out of the ordinary as far as that goes. They ended with a long hug and now he's not calling her back. But while they were at the dog park, there was some weird dude there who didn't have a dog, who is hitting on all the chicks, and then Kevin

asked the guy to leave. They gotten like a quick exchange, and then the guy left, and everybody was saying that Kevin's a hero and it was really attractive to Emma. And the only thing I can think is I wonder if he hired that dude to go to the dog park so that he could just put on a show for Emma. That's what I mean, Emma, do you think that's a possibility. Do you think maybe he hired that guy to go to the dog park be weird? I mean,

at this point, I honestly don't know. But even though if that is the case, if he hired this random guy, why isn't he calling me back? That's true, because how gonna be a scheme? They met at the vet and then went like what an hour or two later to the dog park because he got somebody on speed dial. Yeah, who knows. Again, it wouldn't surprise me. I mean, that's an awful lot of work, but hey, it works, Yeah,

it did work. Maybe now there's some people that are have a new plan for how to meet women or impress women. All right, well I'm gonna die's fun of it right now and see if we can figure out why you're not getting a call back. Here we go. Hello, Hi is this Kevin? Yeah? This is Kevin Kevin. What's up? Man? How are you? This is Jewil from brook and Jewil in the Morning. Okay, okay, Hi Kevin. Are you familiar with the show at all? I am. I'm curious why

you're calling me. Well, I'm calling you because somebody emailed us to give you a call for a second date. Update? Oh they did? Really? Yep, Like seriously, somebody did, just calling you out of the blue, just making the whole thing up all right? Bye? See yeah that was it best prank ever. Yeah, I got you, burn Kevin. Okay, I guess it's gonna be one of those days. Um, you got me. I wasn't. I'm actually calling you for a second date update? Okay? You you are? You really are? Okay? Yes, Amy,

I think I might know if this is about really? Okay, Um, do you know who might want to email us to figure out why you're not calling them for another date? I've got a feeling I gotta feel, but I'd rather i'd rather hear you say it than me. Let's try to say it at the same time. Okay, ready, okay, three two one, Emma, Emma, Emma. You didn't say the same time. But yes, her name is Emma, Yes, Emma? Yeah? Wait are you purposely not calling Emma back then? Am

I purposely? Yeah? Like you're avoiding her. I was hoping that it was just because you've been too busy or something. I had a nice time with her, but I went kind of like digging on her social media and what I found was like a huge turn off to me. If I'm being honest, it's a big, big turn off. Her social media was a turn off. Is it too many selfies or something like that. No, was anything like that. It wasn't like inappropriate pictures or anything like that. Um,

her grammar is atrocious. Do you say her grammar like her right? Like her writing? Yes? Her writing? Yes, her writing is atrocious. It is. It's just it's a travesty. You don't want to go out with her again because her grammar is bad? Oh, big time? Like she uses double negatives like that annoyed that that annoys me, almost cursed it that annoys me. But she wasn't like, I mean, that wasn't something she used in her normal speak, so

it wasn't an issue when you guys were hanging out. Well, we only spent like a little bit of time together, so I don't know. Things seem fine there, but go to her social media. It's insane, Like she doesn't do the difference between your and you are it doesn't know the difference at all. Yeah, but what okay, hold on to her defense. A lot of people use social media to just quickly throw out thoughts. And what if it's

something where it's auto correcting on her phone. I mean that can happen, but does it happen more than once and in multiple posts a day? I was like, oh, come on. And also there's like a Google search you can google proper grammar if you don't even if you don't know it, I just, uh, it's already getting me like annoyed. And you're not open to like maybe trying to coach her through her grammar. Oh, like that's gonna go over real world. Yeah, Hey, I notice your social

media makes you look really stupid. Can I teach you a few things about words? I have something to say about this. I'm sure you do. Emma, Hey, Kevin, Emma's on the phone and wants to talk to you. Oh, for good you you guys do it this way? Ye? Are you kidding me? My grammar is terrible. That's why you haven't called me back. That's the reason. That's the big thing that you can't even like A double negative on my social media has turned you off that much.

I mean, I'm being honest. Would you rather me lie to you? I'd rather you tell me instead of just not talk to me while I call you and try to set up another date. Just end it if that's what you want. But a double negative your instead of your? I know the difference? Are you sure you know the difference? Yes? I know the difference. You're and I owe you. Apostrophe r E means you are like you are being a mean I think that was appropriate. That was the right grammar.

You're a bigger grammar offender than you even know. Like you don't end a sentence with a proposition, okay, like nobody nobody does that, you know for such a grammar guy? Is it a proposition or a preposition? You're not supposed to end a sentence with their Kevin, all right, dude, slow down. I made a mistake. I meant to stay proposition proposition Okay, all right, just just checking in on

that one. I feel like that was fair. Yeah, but maybe we shouldn't give you the benefit of the doubt since you're not giving me the benefit of the doubt that I just like to do a quick post and I'll and a sentence however I want. But it's social media. It's not like I'm writing this thesis about I don't even know what. I don't understand why it bothers you so much. What bothers me is you use a punctuation

within par emphasis. That's what if we're really getting into it, so really digging deep on this, Oh my god, I mean, you're just digging here. There's gotta be another reason. There's got to be something else that you're just not saying that you're not calling me. There's no way that a punctuation in parentheses bothers you that much. I think everybody in the world age ship you. You put parenting parentheses outside of punctuation. I didn't get that one either. I spoke. Okay,

I'm punctuations outside parentheses, That's what I'm mean. Absolutely good for someone who's so upset about my punctuation, you're doing an awful lot of misspeaking about it. Evan. Does this make you want to maybe go back in and edit some of your posts though, so that they look proper. No, you and I had a really good connection, Our dogs even connected. Our dogs got along so well. I feel

like we had a really good day. And for you to not call me back because of the grammar on my social media it is not only ridiculous, it is pretentious. Oh wow, those are a couple of big words that you use there. I'm pretty impressed. What does that mean? Maybe you want to go out with them again? Kevin? Would you like to go on a second date with him? And we'll pay for it? I mean, why would I want to after I basically felt like I was insulted to my face? So you are so who cares if

our Who cares if our dogs got along? There's bigger things in the world and whether or not you dog did along. Yeah, there's a whole punctuation in parentheses things you know exactly, And I don't want to go on a second date with someone who's going to be so nitpicky about a social media post is not the kind of person that I want to be around. Yeah, you're a nitpicky a big word again. Good God, can you guys just like hang up on him because he is an idiot. You would be doing me a favor if

you did that. Okay, well, okay, there you go, Emma, I hung up on him. Thank you. I feel better. It feels really good. I don't even want to post on social media or write anything on social media anymore because it's just gonna make me think of this. Jack Well, I think maybe Kevin helped you in a good way. Okay, because that whole parentheses punctuation thing. I'm super glad we got that cleared out. I mean to be honest, I forgot about that rule. But all right, em well, better

luck next time I'm getting a second date. I hope you don't not get one later on in the future. That's a double negative. In the morning, text In at seven, eight, five to nine and two says I have to agree with Evan on this one. Social media talking leads to texting, and it's hard to have a conversation with somebody who doesn't use proper punctuation. Yeah, I'm talking about today's second date update if you missed it. Emma met this dude

named Kevin. They met at the vet. They have both had their dogs there for an appointment, and they went to the dog park later that day. They bonded really well and how a good time. But when she she wanted to get another date with Kevin, but he wasn't calling back. And when we got Kevin on the phone, we found out that he did some research on Emma after the dog park, and he went through her social media and was appalled at more than a half dozen

grammar mistakes. Your versus your punctuation inside of parentheses really made him angry. Yeah, apparently it's a big pet peep of his and he was mad about it. They argued, she called him names, and there's no second date. I feel like, I don't know. I could see how it would be a turn off, right, Yeah, but I would still pursue a second date to see if that's truly who the person is. Someone has horrible grammar and it

bothers you. Sure, but yeah, maybe go out with them again and see if they're like that all the time, or if it's just a few mistakes on social media. Maybe they just had bad English teachers their whole life and needs some help. I mean, honestly, there's some really bad English teachers. Maybe it's on a second date. Maybe you just sit down and go, hey, here's the number for Silver and Learning Centers. Maybe you should go learn a little bit of punctuation and then get back at

me and maybe we can go out. But yeah, they decided to not go out again. And a lot of people are calling him a douchebag, but some people are in agreement. Texting seven eight five to nine two is poor punctuation and bad grammar that big of a deal for you that you wouldn't go out with somebody again. And remember, if you want to do a second date update,

all you have to do is email the show. You can go to Brooke and Jewel Radio dot com our email addresses all right there, email us and we will call the person who didn't call you back.
