Hazing

Posted in: On Today's Show

Yi guys Intern Derek here!

The government and college presidents are thinking about outlawing and even making it illegal for frats and sororities to haze their pledges. 

Slacker thinks this is a good idea and feels like it makes frat guys and sorority girls desperate to fit in… That being said he admitted that he didn’t think that any frat would have him.  Steve thinks that sense so many other traditions in our country have been banned why not another one.

I don’t really care one way or the other, that being said I think our government has too much on their plate to worry about whether kids who know what they are signing up for are getting hazed. If the college presidents want to ban it then that’s their decision but I don’t see why the government needs to get involved. 

Do you think hazing should be banned?

Recently in Boston, Barack Obama’s long-lost Uncle was charged with a DUI. The 67-year-old was stopped in front of a Chicken Bone Saloon after he nearly crashed his SUV into a patrol car. When he was given the breathalyzer test, he blew a .14. On top of his DUI charge, he was detained as an illegal immigrant because he was previously ordered to be deported back to Kenya. When asked if he wanted to make a phone call for bail, he simply said, “I think I will call the White House.”

Slacker freely admits that he is the black sheep of the family and seems to be perfectly ok with it. 

Steve however is not, when Slacker said that he thought he was the black sheep Steve was not having it. After Slacker said that he was because Steve’s family was so straight and narrow that he had to be the black sheep.

I am a little bit of the black sheep in the family.  My brothers all ride motorcycles and love it.  My dad rides and drives anything that goes fast, and yet I have no real desire to ride motorcycles or race cars.  I would rather play baseball or football.  So I guess I am the black sheep of my family also.

Who’s the black sheep in your family?

Yi guys! I had been dating a guy for almost a year when we decided to move in together. We were a little tight on money so he convinced me that we should move into his parent’s basement apartment. They agreed but made us sign a rental agreement. We lived there for 5 months and then we had a big fight, broke up and he decided to move in with a friend. Now, I’m stuck living in my ex-boyfriend’s parent’s basement! I know he talks bad about me to them and tells them lies because they are really mean to me when I see them. They won’t let me out of the agreement and I don’t have anywhere else to go. What should I do guys?

Maggie

I say good riddance. I can’t believe this guy would make her stay in his own parent’s house while he went off to live with a friend when in the beginning it was his idea because money was tight! This guy has no logic. Living in her ex-boyfriend’s parent’s basement is not a healthy place to be but if there’s only half a year left, I would try to find another solution in the meantime whether it’s with your own parents or with a friend and sadly suffer through the last few months. You could treat the place like you would as if you were in Vegas… You’re never there.

What advice do you have for Maggie? Have you been in a situation like this?

Yi!

60% of Americans think people take too long to eat, so now some restaurants are starting a dining time limit. This means you will be given a length of time you are allowed to sit at your table. Staff members say turning over tables is how waiters profit so if you just sit there, you are taking up space. Would you be ok with a dining time limit?

Slacker doesn’t want to feel rushed when he is out at a restaurant and it’s not like he doesn’t tip well, so what’s the difference? He wants you to let him sit there as long as he wants and he promises to take care of you.

Steve is tired of sitting in a waiting area watching couples with their tables cleared just sitting there. Steve wishes he could just tell them to get out and go talk somewhere else! Others are waiting! This even happened in Las Vegas this past weekend. About eight of them were sitting down to brunch and once they were all finished, they all just sat around chatting. Steve noticed the huge line of people waiting to get in and wanted to get out of there but of course Slacker decided to order another drink so all of them continued to sit around.

I’m like Slacker. I would hate a dining time limit. I’m not a slow eater, but I get full easily so I like to sit around, talk a little, and then eat a little more. I don’t like the feeling of being rushed. At night, I’m the person along with my friends that stays until they shut the doors and start moping the floors.

Peace. Love. – Assistant Producer Stephanie

A Denver police officer Jeremy Olive is under investigation after giving his daughter liquor to calm her down. Jeremy and his family were eating at the Fish City Restaurant when another diner saw him give booze to the child. The diner says, “I kind of noticed they weren’t paying much attention to the little girl because she was eating off the ground. Dad picks up the little girl puts her on the lap and starts feeding her straws of margarita. The bartender came back and I was like I hate to make a fuss about it, but I don’t think this is right for this little girl. She’s like we totally agree but I guess he’s a cop though. To be just sitting outside in an open bar and you’re giving your kid margarita when clearly it’s because their fussy. It was just sad.” Jeremy Olive was arrested and cited with a misdemeanor.

When Slacker was a kid he would ride in the bed of his dad pick up and his dad would treat it like an opportunity to swerve and try and fling him out.   Steve used to have roman candle fights and then when that got too lame they escalated to bb gun wars; and both said their dad gave them beer as kids. 

When I was little I did a lot of these things, we played with bb guns and shot them at each other.  We would go red neck sledding (if you don’t know what that is don’t try it) and yes my dad even gave me a beer our two when I was a minor.   I actually hope that my kids will get to do some of these things, it made me tougher and I learned not to do some of these things on my own.

What did you used to do when you were a kid?

Slacker and Steve were talking before the show today about what they would do if the other died, Slacker said I need Steve to drive as fast as he can to my house kick in the door and grab all his porn.  Not to hide it from his wife but to hide it from his mom.  Steve told Slacker that he needs to drive to his house grab all his action figures so they don’t get auctioned off and then grab the PC laptop not the apple (that’s clean) and swipe a magnet over it and then throw it into the Aurora Reservoir. 

I have a death pact with my best friend Brent and he already knows what to do so I don’t need to go into details…

Do you have a death pact?

Yi!

Slacker was in the studio talking to our Producer Dave and he kept getting this feeling like his phone was going off so he would reach for it in his back pocket… Yet, the phone was not in his pocket, it was sitting on the desk. Is Slacker crazy or have you felt the phantom ring like him?

Slacker is not crazy. I have definitely felt the phantom ring plenty of times. My cell phone is sadly a crucial part of my life and I feel naked without it, so I always feel the phantom ring when it’s not next to me.

In Colorado Springs, a woman’s own cell phone saved her life! Cops were called to an apartment complex where was shootout started and the woman was standing out when a stray bullet came her way. Luckily enough, her cell phone stopped the bullet in its tracks. Thankfully, no one was injured during the shootout.

You wont believe me when I tell you I had an Indiana Jones moment on an ATV in Mexico.  When I was 14 my family went to Cabo San Lucas and we were riding ATV’s on the sand dunes when I was going up a hill I didn’t quite have enough juice to make it up and it was so vertical I had to bail off it and it started to tumble down, but instead of running to the side like a normal person I just started running straight down so the ATV followed me down the hill until I dove out of the way just in time.  Luckily I didn’t do too much damage to the ATV and we didn’t have to pay for it.

What’s your unbelievable story?

Yi! I have been dating my boyfriend for the past eight months. I would describe our relationship as “perfect.” We rarely argue and when we do it is settled within minutes. He is so caring and actually talks to me about his feelings and mine. Our relationship has no drama whatsoever. Recently, I started secretly looking at dating sites and find myself flirting more when I go out. I think about cheating all the time and don’t know why when I have the perfect man. Why am I feeling this way?
Laurel

Slacker doesn’t know the right answer for this. He can’t understand why when she’s got it all! However, he can agree with her on one hand. Slacker’s first marriage was a lot like this. Everyone who knew the two of them thought they were the perfect couple. They never fought. With his current wife, they fight all the time over the dumbest stuff because they are both passionate people and if there’s no fighting, there’s no passion.

Right off the bat, I thought to myself, this relationship is not going to work. Like Slacker said, there has to be passion in the relationship. Without it, it gets boring and you start to look elsewhere, so even though everything may seem perfect, it’s really not.

Do you think Laurel be having cold feet or is the relationship destined to fail?

What advice do you have for Laurel?

Yi!!

Do you believe pets can see ghosts?

When our Producer Dave’s parents let him stay home alone for the first time, he was watching TV and the house was completely dark. All of a sudden, his dog started to stare into this hallway and started growling insanely! His dog has never acted like that before! It freaked Dave out so bad he turned on every single light in the house…

Slacker’s neighbor has a cat that will stop in its track, hair standing straight up on its neck and just stares off at what is believed to be a haunted farm house near the property. Steve, of course, doesn’t believe this. Poo-Poo to you Steve.

I believe pets can see ghosts. Although, sometimes I believe it’s just a fly, I do believe my own dog has seen a ghost. You know when she sees what possibly a ghost is because she starts to raise a paw slowly and gets in this stance. Almost like one of those, sshhh, did you hear that, moments… Personally, I love the idea of ghosts so it doesn’t scare me too much and I just join in.

Has your pet seen a ghost?

Peace. Love. – Assistant Producer Stephanie
