Speaker 2
It's a myth that the frog doesn't notice it's being bored alive and then just dies. Like, that doesn't happen. The frog just jumps out as the water starts getting warm. As you would. Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1
So, I would. If you're in a jacuzzi, picture this. Okay. Not hard. I picture it. We've both been in a jacuzzi at various times in our lives. Never together. No,
Speaker 2
not that I know
Speaker 1
of. Maybe one day. I don't know. Who knows? Hopefully. It starts getting a bit hot yeah you're having great chat and great chat let's say it's 11 30 p.m yeah you've had a few beers yeah you've been elsewhere yeah you and the boys have been elsewhere you've ended back at the Airbnb it had the jacuzzi someone said someone said in the whatsapp chat let's get somewhere with the jacuzzi. Link to the Airbnb listing. This place is going to go off. You've been out. You've been doing something. Who knows what? You're back at the pad. There are six guys, no shirts on, in the jacuzzi. Oh, yeah. Drinking beers. You've been drinking beers elsewhere. It starts heating up. It starts heating up. You notice sweat
Speaker 2
forming on your brow. I notice sweat forming on my brow. Yes. Like, you know, someone probably comments. They're like,
Speaker 1
fucking hell, is this, did someone... I'm like, shut up, we're having a good time. It's good, the bubbles are going, everyone's having a good time, beers are flowing. Who gives a fuck about getting hotter? I don't feel it getting hotter. It's cold out, by the way. It's a winter's night, which is why you got the place for the jacuzzi. Yeah. At what point, who gets out first? Well, this introduces an element of social pressure that frogs probably don't deal with.
Speaker 2
I ain't getting out. I'm not getting out.
Speaker 1
I'm fine, man. What are you complaining about? What are you talking about? It's fine. We're having a good time. And someone's gotten out and they're sort of, they're drying themselves with a towel. You're like, oh, fuck off. Yeah. We're having a good time here.
