I'm good Trey.

It's always better when I'm seeing you and get to do, you know, this lovely

Sorry, 'I said your name wrong earlier.

Shayna Sh.

Miss Shayna Pham.

Oh, that A' Trey.

We just figured out that that's my drag name.

Um, anyway, how are you, Trey?

It's been quite A' week.

Yeah, life, life is going, you know, 'I, like 'I still just A'

'I still have not finished the wallpaper in my drag room, but, um, but it's still there.

You know, life's going along.

David is 'I.

Don't know if we've talked about this in the podcast, but David has been taking

Stop.

A'.

Little bit of like, yeah, A', little bit of PTSD there, but at the same time, David does have A'.

Wonderful job.

Yeah.

So this is like A' side hobby,

Well, yeah, 'I don't think it's gonna become his actual job, but he's like,

He's really into it.

So he's currently at the Borgata by himself.

Um,

really you guys have really become quite the Borgata people.

You know, my dad likes to play poker.

'I

'I was gonna say

They gotta, they should play together.

Yeah.

All right, we're gonna set this up.

Well that's fun.

How about you?

How's your.

My week is going well, so.

You look good.

You look more

you, 'I.

Feel more healthy.

Um, I'm able to socialize again.

Uh, but 'I, 'I, notice 'I don't want to like less and less do 'I.

Wanna do it?

'I had A' friend's birthday party that.

'I 'I.

Don't wanna say 'I felt obligated to go, but like, you know, he is A' good friend.

He always shows up for me.

So 'I knew that 'I was going, like 'I decided I'm going to this thing.

And it was at his house and it was A' party and there was jazz music.

And on the invitation it said to dress up.

Which really adds like A' whole nother layer to the getting ready process.

Like to go from in bed sick with Covid 'I to recovering, to like needing to get A'

like A' flapper dress, and like A'

' Chelsey Donn: I didn't go there.

'I just, you know what 'I was like, you're getting A' black dress in boots, A' black long dress in.

works.

Yeah.

and it worked.

It was fine, but like it really 'I the inertia these days to get out is A' real thing.

It's A'.

Little scary

Oh, 'I feel it like

'I mean 'I.

Feel like you felt it for A' long time like 'I.

This is kind of A' new feeling to me cuz 'I do like to socialize and go out and see

To A' Commune as 'I 'I.

Think 'I 'I tended to fall more on the David side of things, but now Trey, 'I, 'I get it.

What do you think this market changes?

Is it like, because you're getting older, is it because of Covid 'I or the

'I.

Think it's like A' combo platters.

My thinking like 'I think that it's, yeah, getting older and not really like feeling like 'I need to

Like I'm not like going out to impress anybody.

Like I'm really just going out purely for me.

And that was like an age thing.

But then when you have Covid 'I and you're like literally in bed for A' week, 10

Oh, for sure.

'I also find that like over Covid, 'I and 'I spoke to A' couple people about this.

Like my social skills have like dolled, A' little bit, you know what 'I mean?

A' real thing.

'I used to be able to like really just like whine and dine with anybody.

And now I'm just like, ugh.

It takes A' certain kind of human to really like activate me when I'm out

'I can't do it.

'I do feel like part of my thing has always been A', like this little minuscule

It doesn't feel like 'I, like there's something to hearing people talk about

That's true.

Yeah, you're right.

Like whenever that comes up in conversation, when I'm out with people,

Cause I'm like, oh, it's not just me.

Like we're all A' little awkward now, right?

Yeah.

So that's kind of been my week.

'I did get myself out though.

'I did go.

'I did dress up.

You know,

And did you have fun?

you 'I had A'.

Good time.

'I saw some people that 'I liked and 'I didn't overstay my welcome and 'I feel

'I.

Love that.

It's great.

What's wrong with that

Yeah.

Yeah.

But like, just because I'm A' new me doesn't mean that 'I don't want to complain about

'I mean literally.

'I just didn't want you to like, get confused.

Oh, no.

'I.

Know your

Don't, don't get A' twisted.

'I have plenty of things to complain about.

Queens know how to complain.

Let's do it.

ChelseyBD.

Are you ready too?

Lodge, A', Complaint.

'I am Trey.

I've been saving this Complaint for this moment because it happened in real time A' few days ago.

So 'I was driving in my car.

You know, A', lot of these complaints aren't in the car.

So 'I was driving in the car and I'm sitting at A' stop sign, and there was A' guy driving

Okay.

As he was driving, my window was down.

Like mind you, at least 'I saw it when it was coming towards me.

So 'I like was able to lift my window on time, but like, Ew, how gross Number one, is it urine 'I?

Don't know.

Could be.

Is it preparation for urine?

'I don't know.

Could be either way.

Pull over dispose of your item in A' trash receptacle.

Why do some people think it's okay to just throw trash at A' car window?

What is wrong with people?

hear A', litter Bog.

But when we come to these, uh, liquids, 'I have A' question, why do you instantly go to urine

'I guess cuz it's like what kind of liquid would you have to remove from your car like

at that moment?

Right?

you're driving.

If it's not your, like if you, if it's water or soda or something like that, you would think

But if A' guy who can pee in A' cup, which is something I've always admir.

'I would think you'd want to have urine outta your car immediately.

'I, don't know.

That's why my brain went there.

'I think, cuz 'I was like, what other excuse could there possibly be?

Yeah, it's just funny.

That's where you go,

But really though, do you see this like 'I saw even on the, on the freeway,

'I hate that.

'I.

It does bother me.

Especially when the person is simultaneously driving.

Right, exactly.

Like it's bad enough, but like if you're literally moving, you throw A' liquid

Like there's just so many things that can go wrong and it's just like,

Oh, truly.

It's like, oof.

That's like 'I don't want you to represent my, the human race.

You know, there is something about like liquid that feels

That's not What's the pH?

What's A'

like A' fast food, like left, you know, bag and

garbage versus like liquid.

But that

' Chelsey Donn: I guess so.

It's still gross.

The garbage is undeniably worse, but the liquid is just like, was just A'

And then it made me think like in general, how common it is that people

It really is an experience of like, oh, I'm the center of the world.

The world is my garbage can.

Like as if also like the world can't see you do that.

You're not in an you're, you don't have an invisibility cloak on.

You're in A' car.

It's daylight.

Does that count as littering?

Like could A'

Yes.

A'.

Hundred per 1000%.

1000%.

That's littering.

A' Cop could pull you over for that.

Did he drop the cup or no?

No.

That's why 'I thought maybe he was gonna pee in the cup, because that would be like, okay.

Like, oh my God, 'I gotta pee.

What am 'I gonna do?

Uh, 'I have this thing with A' soda.

Okay, I'll throw out the soda and I'll pee Like 'I.

Guess that's the only, that was the only like rationale 'I was trying to go to for this human.

But anyway, off this asshole

Did you ever see that SNL sketch 'I?

Think it was snl, 'I.

Could have been Mad tv.

It sounds more mad tv.

Where it was like the woman's P cup for the car.

It was like some sketch.

know.

But 'I think that there is.

That's

hilarious.

But there is something, there is A' real thing.

There's like A' fun.

, there's

Yeah.

It's A' Funnel.

Yes,

you can use that can, yeah.

Can allow you to pee like in A' car.

You know, for in emergency.

You know

not much of A' public.

Pee in general.

'I,

Oh, 'I.

Get pisha.

Yeah, 'I get Pia urinals.

'I like to go into the stall, not the urinal, which 'I know you're the same.

Yes.

You're not big on those urinals.

I'm not big on the urinals personally.

Getting off of the New Jersey turnpike there is, they have service stations.

They're all named after famous people.

Uhhuh,

But there is, there's one named after Judy Bloom, which is A' very random

He had A' play named after him.

'I.

Don't try football 'I.

No, but it's A' play.

'I.

Don't

It was at theater in the RA Square theater.

Oh my.

It's A'.

Play 'I.

Don't

it doesn't matter.

But like then it's like, then Judy Bloom, which is like, is hilarious.

Anyway, but there is A' huge stretch where it's like after you hit the Judy Bloom service

And that just reminds me of the anxiety of having to pee in the car.

Yes.

Just that in general.

But yes, 'I, hear you.

Let's all just be more conscious, like especially if you're splish splashing, get.

In daylight, Uhuh 'I mean.

Not that you should do it at all.

'I don't want to condone nighttime littering, just A'.

Certain amount of gall.

Anyway.

Trey, what is your Complaint this week?

My Complaint is kind of similar to, um, liquid conversations, but, and this is

In our house we have A' Smart Refrigerator, which 'I don't even know what that means, but

So 'I, I've been getting alerts like probably for the last two weeks, maybe every now and then.

Then 'I just always like swipe away, like 'I hate notifications, like 'I just disregard.

But 'I kept getting this notification that the water filter was.

Needed to be replaced.

and 'I was like, you know, just like 'I can't do it with this,

So anyway,

Clearly we have bigger priorities.

so like A', couple of days ago, like three or four days ago, 'I

Hmm.

Okay.

like 'I consume so much ice that by the end of the night, like 'I will use lots

A' Lot of ice.

is A' lot of ice.

So then in the next morning it's like full, you know, so 'I noticed.

. Oh, it's now the new morning and it's not full.

And 'I was like, wait, maybe this is that water

the filter.

So then 'I and there's like A' little icon that's on the fridge, right?

So, okay.

'I get home last night and I'm like, it didn't refill again.

It must be like 'I.

Guess the water just won't go through if the filter is not working.

Cuz this is A' smart fridge.

It's telling me that 'I can't just get water from the New Jersey water

wanna give you dirty ice.

Trey.

'I Don't care.

'I want 'I.

It's,

'I.

Want the dirty ice?

It's not that dirty.

Right?

'I mean, I'm sure it's horrible, but like if 'I just had an ice maker, it would be making ice.

I'm just lodging, A'.

Complaint against.

Oh, so wait.

Before 'I Lodge it.

Yeah.

So then I'm like, okay, well 'I don't like 'I.

Find where the filter is.

It's in A', like pop-up thing that's above, you know, and it's like, find the serial

It has, you know, there's like 8 million versions of sub.

So I'm like, okay.

The app has like the little cloud with A' download symbol like 'I, guess like A'.

When 'I got my new phone, 'I didn't really redownload the app.

So like 'I have to redownload the app, then the app takes forever.

'I don't remember the password.

So then 'I have to like get the password, right?

So then 'I go through and it's like fine, like it's not logged in like 'I.

It knows what fridge mine is, but it doesn't have the serial number.

So then 'I have to like click the link to find how to find the serial number.

And it's like 'I, this little label that's on the inside of the Fri, the freezer,

A' Dumb

like, Right, and it's supposed to be smart.

Why?

Like if I've registered this

It should just know what it is.

It should know.

It should be like your filter is low.

Click here to reorder A' new filter.

Okay.

Well because, and this isn't even the Complaint.

This is just the befuddlement getting to the Complaint.

Okay.

So then I'm like, okay, so then 'I have to manually type in and it's like two F

Right?

Like just so stupid.

So then 'I type it in.

Okay.

'I A' stock

Oh, no,

an alert to notify me when it's back in stock.

How does subzero stop production?

Of ice because of the water filter.

And then they're not manufacturing enough water filters.

No honey.

Uh,

So then I'm like, all right, well 'I have to go on Amazon.

Like 'I Have to find some fake version

you.

This is A' real nightmare.

'I wanted to point out, cuz like your love of ice, this is now going on two days.

Mean 'I do

to the store and buy backup ice?

What did you do?

'I do have A' bag of ice that was in the freezer from like, you know, that

So I've been using that, but like it's stupid ice.

It's like A' bag of ice.

It's like melting.

It doesn't last,

ice.

but it's just frustrating that like, 'I 'I.

Don't get to say keep producing ice because 'I 'I, remember when 'I moved in, it was A' new

When you have A' new filter.

Oh, oh, you do like

Yes, it's A' filtration system

um,

there'll be like carbon dust on the ice.

So I'm like, I'm not, and on Amazon, because it was like midnight, I'm not

So you did find it on Amazon or A' compatible one.

'I found one that says it is, um, comparable with, so I'm like anticipating

Oh God.

'I be like, you voided your warranty.

at this point where I'm like, 'I don't enough with the smartness.

Like, don't like 'I, know the hose is plugged in.

Just make the ice 'I.

Don't care if it's dirty.

We're all gonna die.

It's fine.

If 'I die, it's fine.

We're all gonna go.

Give me the ice.

you, give Trey the ice God, but like, yeah.

What A' pain, what an example of like A' modern convenience that,

Mm-hmm.

, I'm dependent

you were dependent on it and now when we don't have it, we're like, what the heck?

'I just don't like the ability to not be able to like produce the ice like that.

It's

to not have the autonomy like you should be able to be like, disregard,

That's right.

It's the autonomy being taken from me.

Like, yes, 'I, see your filter request and I'm going to deny it.

Right, right.

All right.

Well,

my Complaint.

Let's move on.

I'm too mad.

listen, it's in the ledger now, so hopefully the authorities will be notified.

All right.

All right.

ChelseyBD.

Let's listen to someone else's Complaint and then let's dissect it.

Do you want to maybe do our title?

please.

Review, That, Review.

As you know, we are your trustee Review Queen.

We bring in reviews from the internet that we feel need to be inspected.

We read you A' review.

We break it down and then we rate the impact of that review on A' scale from zero to five crowns.

It is A', very regal process that we

Assess, That, Kvetch.

and ChelseyBD you're gonna share today.

What have you brought in for us?

Well, well, wow.

'I have brought in A' Yelp review for ultrasound, laser tag.

Now, Trey, have you ever played laser tag before?

Oh my God, it feels so nineties to me.

Yes, there was A' Laser Tech place growing up.

'I was obsessed.

was obsessed growing up.

'I don't remember like exactly when it became A' thing, but as soon as

Like this was A'.

Very, very common thing.

And 'I feel like there aren't that many of these laser tag places still going around

You know,

That feels like the niche.

Yeah, like four, four, you know, 4D experience type thing, right?

So 'I thought, let's check this, uh, laser tag place out on Yelp and, and then 'I.

Read A' pase review A' PS two star review of the Ultra Zone laser tag.

Do you want to hear it?

Yeah, let's do it.

Okay, here we go.

This review is only about A' birthday party.

Short version.

Get everything in writing.

and manage your expectations.

It's being run by kids in their twenties.

After all, long version.

If A' staff member says, don't worry about it, no problem.

In response to A' request, that doesn't mean yes.

We'll take care of that.

It means 'I have been trained to agree with you.

Even if 'I have no intention to follow up on this myself or even communicate with other

Oh man.

It also means shut the hell up, but that will come later.

'I called six months in advance and said, I've looked on your parties and 'I only have one.

. You have plastic tablecloths and styrofoam cups and plastic plates and plastic forks and plastic

Huge ball and stuffed in A' dumpster after two hours.

This is pretty standard, but I've had parties, other places, and we've managed to minimize waste.

For our party, can we at least use paper plates and cups and maybe skip the plastic tape of cloth?

'I was told, don't worry about it.

No problem.

'I asked, would you prefer that 'I pick up these items and bring them to you in advance?

'I was told that if 'I paid an additional $100 splash upgrade, she could buy

Now no one would mistake me and my husband for environmental crusaders.

We're reasonably competent recyclers.

At best 'I.

Just think we can do A' little better.

10 days before the party we drop by to check out the garden room.

The best and largest.

There was A' suffocating mildew, smell as in hit your asthma inhaler.

Take A' Benadryl, go home and wash your clothes level stench.

Jess said that the rainwater had gotten in but promised it would be cleaned soon.

The day of the party.

Our assigned party person had never heard about any of.

The garden room carpet and ceiling stains were still visible, didn't care and smell was ungodly.

The only change were the GLAD plugins.

'I opened the door to try to air it out and started to set up anyway.

But my son has the kind of asthma and allergies that require me to keep an

So when he said my chest is tight, 'I stopped unpacking the food and decorations.

Oh.

'I asked the manager if we could move to another room.

To his credit, the acting manager seemed to be trying, but the new room was A' third of the.

Cramped and dark.

The extra A' hundred dollars 'I had paid were spent on Darth Vader

These are cool, but A' real problem.

We had to listen to our party person scold the kids constantly for

Both the manager and our assigned party person claimed they'd never heard anything about

We saw other party captains laughing with the kids, but our was A', straight

A', grumpy, sulin, unhelpful teenager.

'I still tipped 17% because I'm high maintenance, but I'm not A' total asshole.

They didn't even provide enough water bottles for every guest to get one.

'I spent hundreds of dollars for the guests to not even get.

After all the staff's promises at the end of the party, they even stuffed

'I paid extra money for them to do what they were going to do anyway and got treated badly for it.

My husband said if you give me the trash bag, 'I can throw the water bottles in it

Don't worry about.

The staff insisted that 'I was the only customer to ever complain about

But on our way out, 'I passed.

A' mom, who was wrapping up A' party in there, 'I waved and said, did you have A'?

Good party.

She said The room smelled awful, but what am 'I gonna do?

Not have the.

Okay.

And there were also two photos included with little things, so I'm gonna share those quickly.

Okay.

So no scratch and sniff.

So just imagine you're trapped in A' Dumpster with five mill Dewey shower curtains.

And five Glade plugins and it's A' picture of the garden room, which does look kind of like dingy,

Tip for staff.

If it was your idea to supply both inflatable swords and balloons, you kind of don't

Okay, so wait.

Looking at this image, they're like balloons themselves.

The Darth

inflatable.

They're inflatable swords.

That's A'.

Yeah.

And then you could see that there's like balloons on strings in the BA and 'I.

Guess you know they're hitting each other, they're hitting the balloons.

But 'I sort of agree with the mom in this respect.

Like if she gave them A' hundred dollars and this is what they provided.

And what do you think A', bunch of like child boys, seven year old boys are gonna do with them?

'I.

Mean 'I.

How did you find this?

'I.

This is literally down the street from my house.

'I found this actually because A' friend of mine had his birthday here.

A' A' P is like such A' conundrum,

She really is

this is so annoying.

And this came up on Dave and Busters cuz we don't want to talk about laser tag

'I know, but the thing about A' is she constantly called it

She's like, this is only about birthday parties.

You know, like

That's

she had A' level of self-awareness.

'I think

Also, 'I wanna say at the very beginning, like the short version, like it

What do you mean?

Like what she says in the short

Yeah.

It's like short version, get everything in writing, and this is run by teenagers.

Like, I'm like, okay, that doesn't sound that bad.

Right.

It's funny because 'I also wrote down, wow, plastic warrior.

And the next sentence was like, my husband and 'I are not environmentalist

Right, right.

But that's why 'I feel like it was interesting to me because it was like, oh God, like

But then they'd be like, we're not Crusaders.

So then I'm like, okay, well they're just like, we should be more aware.

Like 'I don't know.

They like managed to get me back on their side.

A' few.

Interesting.

Cuz I'm not on her side.

I'm very, I'm very annoyed.

'I also want to be like,

God.

Did you use cloth diapers for this little child you're

Cuz you're so concerned about other people.

Waste and plastic and,

'I.

Just also feel like it's LA though, like it's not Kansas 'I.

Okay.

A'.

'I cannot be an anomaly.

There's gotta be like other people in A' that are like 'I don't want pla like 'I think.

Right?

This review was written in 2015, to be fair, but 'I think at this point, 'I think like true plastic

Think it's A' illegal in California.

Like 'I don't even, like, you can't order it on Amazon to this.

Oh, wow.

'I didn't know that.

Yeah.

so like it is an issue like we are in California.

She's, she's not gonna be the only person.

'I don't think that's gonna read this review and feel this way, but

Everybody's not gonna feel this way for me, like the plastic cutlery.

Almost like could have been left out of the argument besides the fact that they didn't

Like 'I guess it's important for that reason, but really like the mill Dewey room, which did look

Yeah, but 'I was also anticipating, like when they talk about the ceiling stains

Like you can see water stains

Yeah.

There was just A', but that picture of the garden room, every, like the walls are

Like it's hard to s it's hard to see, like, it isn't like as glaring as like white tiles when you

Right, right,

'I mean.

I'm, I'm glad to get the context about like Los Angeles laws.

This was also in 2015, so this was, you know, A' while ago.

Right.

'I.

'I don't know.

'I, just A'.

P.

Self identifies as high maintenance.

And 'I would say that That's saying it nicely.

'I, . 'I think that it's 'I.

'I agree 'I.

Think A' is definitely A' high maintenance.

But 'I like the fact that A' P called it out like 'I.

Do think that there is A' level of awareness here that is not present in all reviews that look like?

'I hear 'I

You know, like, like 'I think that there are A', lot

And there's not even like A' moment of contemplation of like, maybe this is me.

Or even like my son has like asthma.

The kind of asthma that you have to have an EpiPen around.

So like that's also like, This is an extenuating circumstance.

We're calling it out.

So 'I did like the Upfrontness.

Even if 'I don't necessarily think that everybody that has A' birthday party at

Well, that's interesting because it all felt justifiable as you like were

'I can't be around mildew bitch.

right.

There's mildew everywhere, like 'I.

It was landing to me in A' much different way than it was landing to you.

So this is gonna be A'

But that's good.

but I'm also like, you did not rent A' room at the Ritz Carlton.

You idiot.

This is laser tag down the street.

Calm down honey bunny.

This is A' laser tag that's run by teenagers.

Of course it's gonna be dirty.

Yeah, and maybe that is like why the short review was,

Manage your expectation.

It's run by, like manage your expectations.

Maybe that's like maybe Anna is writing that short review to herself,

Hmm.

not worried about the plastic or paid the extra A' hundred dollars.

You know, 'I think

All right.

Okay.

So the A' hundred dollars conversation, because 'I do feel annoyed about that and 'I think that

Anna was told Anne paid.

And there, there's like the whole conversation about getting editing

That's very useful.

That is like A' big

And also Anna was like, let me, like, I'm happy to provide the things.

Like that's again, when 'I was Team A', cuz 'I was like, you know, it's not just like

She's like, 'I would rather not have our party use styrofoam cups and

Like the answer to that should have just been like,

I'm also hearing just this conversation about parenting other children.

This is what I'm hearing, so like.

Yeah,

'I.

Get that.

The light sas were like those like little like air pump inflatable toys,

That's what it boils down to in Star Wars world.

Of course kids are gonna hit each other with those, but it's interesting to me that Anna

They say party captain, party person.

Oh,

person was sort of like, calm down, calm down, stop.

And it's like the parents don't seem to like be like, stop being aggressive.

Like that thing about like, did A' not think that they were like getting A'

It seems

'I.

Don't know.

'I.

Just feel like someone like having A' nephew and also having like worked with kids.

'I, 'I.

Guess maybe 'I just like feel for A'.

A' little bit more because 'I think like filling A' room with gasoline and like lighting A' spark

It's like, well, duh.

What is gonna happen?

There's just no way of stopping.

There's no way to stop an entire room full of kids from doing this.

And then here's another question.

Do you think that the Darth Vader masks and those inflatable light savers were made of plastic

definitely.

Well, that's why 'I, like 'I kind of hopped off the review for A' second when she was

And 'I was like, wait, A' second.

that's plastic too,

that's plastic too.

But then she was like, but then my husband offered, put them in the recycling bin.

Like 'I think that's the issue is like they're clearly not recycling at all.

They're clearly just gathering everything at the end, throwing it in

Well, do we know that?

Or did Anna assume that,

'I think we know that cuz they're just like putting it, if you're,

especially these teenagers, one could

Yeah.

There's just like, no way.

right?

It's occurring certain

the back of this 'I know exactly where this laser tag is and in the back

like A' Strip

That's like right near where you park.

So like the guy could easily have just like walked to his car and done it.

All right.

So do we think that this is A' valuable review?

Like is there new, unique information?

'I mean for me.

There is 'I.

Think 'I Learned A' lot about planning A' party here, which 'I think is common.

Exactly right.

And there's gonna, especially these rooms, like I'm hearing that like

I'm not

and also like the first line of the review, sorry, but the first line of the R

So if 'I am going to Yelp to look for reviews about laser tag and 'I, see that first line?

I'm skipping.

So 'I like that, or 'I might read the short version, you know what 'I mean and then move on.

So to me that was A', little bit of A' queenly.

Yeah.

'I do think that there 'I it.

It does feel like the long review is more palpable and it seems like the short review isn't 'I.

Don't know.

'I just felt like that would, that's not how 'I would short review this.

'I think my short word view would be like they don't follow through on their promises.

We were swindled.

They don't care about the environment.

We didn't feel supported.

But the, let me show you the way, I'm gonna share my screen again.

'I just wanna show you the way that they like wrote it to me.

It's like this, this is A' review about A' birthday party, short version, get

It's being run by kids after.

All right?

So like, this is like one section that we have like space, space before, long version.

So 'I really do feel like, This whole first section is like A' speed bump

Oh, I'm not going there for A' birthday party.

Okay, well short version.

Okay, cool, cool, cool.

Got it off

Right 'I.

Don't think it's A'.

Proper summary of the long review is my point.

No, but 'I also don't think it include like 'I.

Think if you had A' birthday party, you'd keep reading.

'I don't know 'I guess that's my thinking is like if you are gonna not read this review

You know,

do we think that they're being truthful or shad?

that's 'I feel like the main question because 'I think they're being truthful.

A', little shady.

But 'I think, you think that Anna's more shady.

'I.

Just think that Anna's expectation is too high for A'.

Little seven year old kid's.

Laser tag, birthday party that's run by teenagers.

Yeah.

Separate of the money conversation.

'I think like if you paid more and you made this request and they said they would take care of it.

That's the real problem here.

right, right.

common fluke.

'I mean if this is California and it's illegal to do plastic stuff, then like

Yeah.

Yeah.

And like 'I, think 'I wanted to know that the rooms are like dingy and mildewey.

That's kind of gross to me.

'I would, if 'I was gonna do A' party there even today, which 'I am gonna ask

But anyway, point is, if 'I was gonna plan A' party at this location, 'I would

And sniff it out,

'I wanna sniff out the party room?

And 'I think that that's like credited to Anna.

do you think?

Yes, for sure.

Do you think that the mom at the very, like the last sentence, do you think the mom's

'I.

it was truly that, then it really, there's A' real book

'I mean 'I?

Think that the fa like, first of all, 'I hate the smell of Glad Plug-ins.

And Glad

So strong.

Our, they actually really do activate my allergies super bad.

Like just the,

Well, they're just masking.

They're not doing anything.

They're just masking and they're like so strong and so artificial and so

Yes.

'I agree,

just for me, gets like locked in my nostrils and 'I, like have trouble breathing.

So if we are to take A' on her word, like even if the mildew wasn't an issue, which it sounds

I'm sure it did smell with like nowhere to really like circulate it.

Ugh.

I'm sure it smelled.

So were we entertained, what do you think of the humor?

'I was mildly entertained by, by A'.

P 'I could really, like 'I, could really get A' point of view on them.

'I don't, I'm not saying that like 'I necessarily want to go out for drinks

Same

you know,

but 'I.

Don't think there, there isn't A'.

Lot of humor in here cuz 'I think she's very

'I don't think there's like straight like open mic humor.

impact.

Deal breaker.

There's definitely an impact for me.

impact for sure.

All right.

Anything else to consider for Anna?

Do we like the photos?

Is that like, do we, you

'I think including photos always make like is always A', queenly move.

Always, always, always.

Especially in this circumstance, like we're never gonna know the smell,

can imagine that smell smelling that, that room, sorry.

Smelling like

Yeah.

Oh, for sure.

'I do think it, it adds to the truthful nest.

To

'I think 'I can crown

'I can count Anna.

All right, let's do it.

So ChelseyBD and 'I each have our own set of zero to five crown cards.

In an effort to be fair and not influenced by one another, we will simultaneously reveal our rating.

The Queens are Tabulating

school.

Wow.

Queens are unanimous.

Three and A' Half

Really

crowns.

Yeah.

Trey, you go first.

Why?

Three?

And A'.

Half crowns for A'.

Well 'I think A' rubs me the wrong way.

'I think A' has like really extreme expectations.

'I do think that Anna operates in high trauma drama all the time.

'I think that maybe the child has an EpiPen issue and, and Anna leads.

Her life with like my child is, has more issues in the world like 'I.

Just think there's A', there's A' frenzy around Anna's needs and center of attention.

Needing to like confirm with the other mom that's in the room.

Like something about that really rubs me

right.

way, probably from my own, um, history.

So like, you know,

A' little transference.

Sure, sure.

Yep.

But when 'I really boil it down, 'I think Anna acknowledging that they're high

But at the end of the day, A' is A' paying customer.

Anna made requests they were not met.

A' was disappointed.

'I don't agree, but that's not what this is necessarily about.

'I took the crowns off because we don't talk about laser tag at all.

And 'I kind of think it's like this is A' kid's birthday party.

If you go to Party City, Every tablecloth are those plastic tablecloths.

So like 'I understand the concern, but 'I mean 'I.

Don't think we're in agreement here, but 'I definitely think

Oh my God, it's A'.

'I.

'I.

Feel that from you and 'I.

'I Am saying maybe.

but 'I think this is really funny.

'I.

Think it's A'.

Really funny review 'I.

Don't think A' thinks it's funny.

Uh, but you know, even though 'I just 'I don't have the same point of view as Anna and I'm

And 'I have A' big impact.

'I have A' feeling that it's, it's musky in there.

It's not clean.

It's the same with.

Color me.

Mine.

It's like these, these situations are usually run by kids.

It's like A' first kind of job place.

And so, you know, three and A' half because 'I hear the concerns.

'I know that 'I would like not do an upgrade.

'I would come with my own decorations, like 'I would de if 'I was that concerned about

Not rely on other people, but 'I hear that they were put at ease and told

So three and A' half.

Why?

Okay, so why are we unanimous?

Why'd you do three and A' half

'I.

Just think we need to point out that we found A', new 'I.

Got you right.

Don't worry about it.

No

Oh yeah.

Don't worry

new 'I got.

Oh yeah, we didn't even talk about that cuz 'I was hearing like you

Don't worry about

But 'I did that like the way that Anna wrote it, cuz 'I felt

You know what 'I

Oh, for sure.

anyway, 'I liked A'.

'I wasn't as turned off as you were.

So that's where the three and A' Half Crowns are coming from.

'I took off the one and A' half cuz 'I think where A' really failed us.

Like if Anna was coming to me, um, as like her advisor about writing.

Review and how A' 'I could, and 'I must remind you, this is A' two-star review.

Not A', not A', not A'.

Five.

Um, we should have emphasized that more.

But anyway, point is, Anna, you're missing A' compliment sandwich.

If you put A' compliment sandwich in here.

'I really feel like this review would've shown 'I.

Think you could've done that by talking about the laser tag, right?

The laser tag was amazing.

My kids had A' great time.

That being said this, like if, if Anna had added A' little.

of the topic of the place, which is obviously the laser tag itself and utilize that

'I.

Really think this could have been A' Review, Queen.

But 'I think because Anna didn't talk about those things and because I'm leaving

But 'I, 'I do think it's A' solid review and it, it made me chuckle when 'I

So three and A' half.

Yeah, 'I.

Mean 'I.

Think knowing that you're A' Karen doesn't remove the fact that you are A' Karen.

You can still be carrying, carrying about.

'I don't see and 'I disagree.

'I think that knowing you are A', Karen is inherently non-car like,

Maybe it's um,

like 'I.

Think it's, yeah.

Carrie, maybe like maybe A'.

Carrie is A' Karen that knows that they're A'.

Karen

A' baby Karen 'I.

Think A' p thought that this was the ozone laser tag, but it's not.

It's the ultra zone.

Oh, you're right.

We, there was A'.

get A' global warming.

Get A'.

Oh good.

Good one.

Ozone Ultra

So good that you left

A'.

. At first 'I was like, oh, was there A' famous, uh, laser tag place called Ozone.

I'm an idiot.

Anyway, A', A'.

P.
