Good human guide to befriending pets! 1. Ask pup’s parent if you can pet them 2. kneel slowly down to pup’s level 3. Use soft whisper ASMR voice to introduce yourself 4. Let them see the palms of your hand, giving them the option to smell you and get used to you 5. If pup engages, give gentle pets on head or back Bonus: if pup has a service vest on, do not engage. That pup is working hard for it’s human friend! admire at a distance
Introduce your hand in a fist to let the pup smell you! If you stick your hand out flat the pup could bite your fingers and it will hurt! But if you let them smell a fist and they try to bite it, it won't hurt as much.
I'm glad to see you include that last part. Absolutely do not engage a service animal UNLESS you see one alone. In that instance, still don't pet the animal. Ask him/her what's wrong and to show you. Then, you follow them. This is because if they are alone, the person they are helping more than likely needs human help of some sort.
Nails Are Life from what little I know about service dogs, you’re probably right, if they’re alone but have a vest on, maybe their human has had a seizure or panic attack or something and the dog has gone for help. Same as a service dog barking a lot, I’d just follow it hoping it will lead me to the hurt person.
Thank you! As a service dog handler, we don't mind the admiration. We get it; they're adorable! But hey, my life can literally depend on them catching cues so if you're over here making kissy noises at the "puppy" I might die. So please don't. Also, it's illegal. If you have questions, you can approach, just ignore the dog unless the handler says it's okay. Most handlers don't mind helping to educate (plus we gush over our fur babies just everyone else!) Remember, we're normal people!
Okay but Julien ranting about the mile actually speaks to my soul. I’m still in high school and most of the year I’m not worrying about grades, I’m worrying about being embarrassed in front of my class during the damn mile.
Kaylee Marie when I was in High School we had to run a mile on the track which is 4 laps. We had to run each lap in under 2 minutes, or THE WHOLE CLASS HAD TO RUN THE LAP AGAIN. I was pretty slow and that last lap was damn near impossible for me to do in 2 min. So the mile on top of a healthy dose of judgement, hatred, and bullying. So, I feel your pain. My prayers are with you! Lol
BRO DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED, IM IN HIGH SCHOOL AND THE ONLY THING I THINK ABOUT IS THAT DAMN MILE AND HOW I LOOK LIKE A DUMB ASS BECAUSE I HAVE A 9 MINUTE MILE BC MY LEGS R SHORT
I dont remember this being a thing when I was in school but my daughter is in gr 7 this yr and THEY have to run the mile! She was sooooo anxious about it!
I technically had to run the mile in school but I took gym as a senior and so my gym teacher just made me take attendance everyday and hand out papers instead of actually doing gym, but you could do the mile and make it in time while WALKING, it really is pointless, I think it would be better to have health class and not gym but a class but a class about how to stay fit and healthy, but gym was so pointless in hs. I also played three sports in highschool and I feel like if you play a sport you should get out of gym, I was running or swimming at LEAST 3 miles a day every day after school already on top of everything else.
I used to baby sit this little girl and her mom had 3 dogs. Two of the dogs were very sweet and always cuddled with me right away, but there was this one Chihuahua who had trust issues. Like at first he would growl at me when I would walk by. But it only took a few times just kinda keeping my distance and showing the dog how I treated the other dogs. And soon enough I would come over and the dog would greet me at the door with a wag and when I would sit down he would plop down on my lap. And I think that’s why people hate Chihuahuas, Pitbulls, cats etc. They automatically assume that the animal would love them. Okay thanks for coming to my ted talk.
Jenna and Julien! To answer you tickle question, we actually talked about this in out anatomy class. So tickling is actually a form of pain that the body cannot process to the point of actually showing normal pain signs. If you think about it, the places where you are the most ticklish have the most nerve endings (armpit, behind the knee, etc.) The nerve endings become stimulated sending the response to the brain and tells it there is something that might be threatening. The mend then responds to let you know this sensation is happening by making you laugh, jolt out of the way from it, cry (just like when cutting an onion because your body is saying there is an oder/gas that is harmful), and, in some people, act more aggressively due to the flight or fight theory (tickling cause your body to let out small amounts of adrenalin). For our family psychology class, we talked about the theory behind why parents tickle their kids and how it is a bonding moment. When you laugh your body releases serotonin which makes your mood stable/happy. You get this every time you let your dogs as well. So the excess serotonin released by each person could cause them to create a better bond. Usually it is just the fact that the parent is spending time with the child. Hope this helped! Love watching your podcasts and channels!! You make my day better!
Kai wagner my dad used to tickle me as a child against my will all the time. i always have hated to be tickled makes my anxiety or some shit go up and i cant breathe and wanna cry lol i’d have to tell him ima pee myself if he doesn’t stop. was the worst lmfao. he was just tryna be fun but my gosh did i hate it lmfao
I heard that generally the most sensitive areas, like neck and armpits, are where like major artiteries are located? I dont know if thats right though...
Hi Jenna. I was in the crowd at SRU. I was so excited to be there with you in the same room, take from your words of wisdom. And hear you talk about your passions, loves, and happiness. I wish I got the chance to meet you. And tell you how much I appreciate you and Julien. Love you guys. #dink
same! I would be so overwhelmed by that, it was a crazy experience just as a fan (first one in the door actually although not vip) so I cannot imagine walking out on that stage. It would probably be great but also a bit terrifying to have a visual of all the people listening to you and looking up to you - thankfully they do a great job influencing viewers in a good way just by enjoying themselves on camera and not being afraid to do things that are "out there".
Teach your children consent when it comes to animals so when they are older its easier for them to understand consent when it comes to human interaction
I’ve taught my kids consent from the time they can talk. They obviously don’t know sexual consent until they are a bit older, but as soon as they can talk I tell them that someone shouldn’t have to tell them to stop more than once. I teach them that people can sometimes think something is fun at first, but then stop having fun and then want you to stop (like being tickled). And so on. It’s not one talk you have when their teenagers.. it’s a constant talk that you have that evolves over time.
Danny Grimes Exactly. Ask before hugs, don’t go at someone’s face to kiss them, don’t hold someone’s hands without asking. Consent talks should start at a very young age.
I made a meme once of a picture of soup with the lyics 'you don't have to love me, you don't even have to like me, but you will respect me.' After someone laughed at me for liking soup, because it's boring..
Our gym teacher would hand us straws every time we made a lap around the track for our mile to make sure we did all four(?) laps, so a kid in my class bought a bag of the same plastic straws the gym teacher has and handed them out to people to make it look like we did more laps than we actually did. And we totally got away with it every time.
I did 3 laps instead of 4 my first time doing the mile, and so the teacher thought that was my normal time. I always just casually walked and went in with everyone else. I never once did the full mile 😂😂 fuck that shit
Jenny Alber I remember running in elementary school especially big events. But I never ran nor did I walk. I was that one asshole with the sprained ankle or headache.
being ticklish helps identify foreign stuff on your body, like with the spider example. if a bug is crawling on you, you get tickled and the immediate reaction is to slap it off, just as you try to push and kick a person away if they are tickling you. as for the laughing part, wanting to be touched/being playful is really what makes you laugh. it's like with any touching, if you are tickled by a friend you are inclined to laugh bc it is familiar and harmless (same with letting a bug crawl on your hand), but if a stranger tried tickling you you'd scream or tell them to fuck off. tickling is not an enjoyable sensation, so it makes sense that after a while laughter turns into annoyance, because as an evolutionary thing its supposed to warn you of mosquitos and shit
Idk, with this explanation you make it seem like the laughter is voluntary, but I've always equated tickling to torture, always made it known that I hated it, and I still laughed. I don't think the laughter is anything you can control, regardless of who's tickling, whether it's someone familiar or a stranger. But the rest of your explanation makes a lot of sense.
you guys should do a podcast on creating your own conspiracy theories, like you could make them from pieces of paper and expand on them by BS like in Snake Oil (we are cops) feel free to change to make the most fun
YAS! Jenna and Julien please make an animal etiquette podcast or youtube video or PSA! CONSENT for animals. I have a rescue and he is extremely shy with people he doesn't know. If someone asks, I always tell them please get down to his level and let him smell you, DO NOT GO UP TO HIM AND PAT HIM RIGHT ON THE HEAD! Kids are the worst. Consent needs to be taught to kids for their own bodies and for animals!! Love you guys. Thank you! :P
I was never good with endurance so the amount of anxiety I got from hearing "We're gonna run the mile today" has stuck with me even to adulthood. The best time I ever had was 8 minutes in high school for softball. In elementary school I would literally hang back with everyone else and just make sure they were okay and try to pump them up lol I was literally the fitness trainer for everyone else while our fat P.E. teacher stood on the side timing us. It honestly segregated so hard the people like Julian and those of us who were still running while they were sitting there watching.
90% of my PE teachers looked like professional athletes and my joints went to shit after my first growth spurt. I had nightmares about distance running.
What was worse for me is that if you were a significant amount slower than like I was, the fast kids they would do a sympathy run. they would run another 1-3 laps with the slow person. It was incredibly embarrassing!!!!
I felt the running the mile rant in my soul “just so some out of shape P.E teacher could stand there and judge my mile” that used to make me so so mad, cuz I was chubbier than my classmates and I didn’t do well in P.E though I tried my very best. My p.e teacher would just stand there and tell me to run faster and in my head I’m like “you come out here and run faster”
My gym teacher was the same, some guys in my class actually said that to him and to our surprise he actually came out and did it. But I mean he only did it for a lap in the gym, so we were still pressed.
Yea thanks p.e. for making me insecure about my physical capabilities. Pretty much every guy in my class played football, so they were all really good at endurance, like running a mile. And of course literally all we did and got graded on was endurance. I thought i was just this unathletic guy who couldn't perform well, even with a lot of training. Destined to be "that one unfit dude". Cut to when i started going to the gym a couple of years ago where i found out i am great at explosive exercises like weightlifting and sprinting. Right when i started i could even do things like 8 proper form pull ups, something a lot of athletic people even struggle with. If you told me that i wouldn't have been so insecure. I should've known because my brothers also do weightlifting, just like my father when he was young. The confidence boost i got since then is massive, now i'm in great shape and love exercise. If we would've been tested on that kind of stuff i would've out sprinted most of my classmates no doubt in a 100 meter dash. But nooo, we had to do the Cooper test and shuttle runs (no, shuttle runs don't properly test sprinting, it's way more endurance). So yea screw p.e., it's a dumb class destroying kids their confidence. A completely useless class in high school, and the fact that it's still a thing actually annoys me so much. Hang in there kids.
I feel like this is such a great argument for diversified PE classes. Kids give up on the idea of sports and physical activity because the environment in most health/gym classes favours a specific type of athlete. I think of all the kids who found weightlifting and other activities after years of hating PE, and it reminds me of the many who gave up because there was no psychological safety in their exploration of sports and no understanding of varying skills and abilities. I used to skip gym or do the bare minimum, but I played sports and was a runner for most of my teen years. I just hated gym.
I totally agree. I thought I was unfit and bad at sports and getting bullied by teacher and the peers did not help. We were forced to do different kind of sports and I didn't realize then but I was so anxious about being at least moderate at sports it gave me anxiety. I hated running. So. Much. And then I got in high school and our teacher was so understanding and cool I got motivated. I started running long distance with my sis and actually got 9/10 in Cooper Test. So f*ck u p.e. Childhood os not supposed to be spent by measuring everything to the point you make a child lose hope of ever achieving anything.
@@YuinRuri The same thing can be said about grades in general. For some kids if they just aren't good at taking tests or something and they don't get excellent grades they just assume they're dumb and give up, it's really sad.
The reason the Pittsburgh Salad has fries on it is because it's a derivative of a famous Pittsburgh sandwich. The sandwich has french fries and coleslaw on it and its origin story is that the steel workers would put everything together in one so they could eat it quickly and wouldn't have to carry a lot to the mills and mines.
Hey, I know this is random but I want to say thank you. Let me explain. I struggle with something that gives me intense panic attacks, I've been getting them almost every night because I can't calm my mind. I had tried watching videos before but it didn't really work. Then I thought to listen to you guys at night. I love the show anyway so I tried it. I can finally sleep, I can finally relax. Just listening to you guys chat helps me distract my mind from the madness. So thank you. For doing this. I thought I would say, your doing something great and I wanted you to know
this is such a great reply section its so nice, I don't really have anxiety but I do have a problem with falling asleep (which I will probably get checked out because I don't want to self diagnose) and I do have adhd which makes it hard for mind to calm down so I can relax. So these videos help me in a similar way.
@@zaydbrewer4187 I also have ADHD so I find that giving my brain a full focus it's kinda prevents a panic attack bc I'm too busy thinking about everything and all the details on what they talk about
actually tho, if i ever got to go to one of your college presentations, i’d seriously die. like, i’d be so happy and excited i’d physically combust. you guys are some of my favorite human beings. if i ever meet you, my life will be complete.
Some of us Pittsburghians are out here, want to have a salad but are gluten free and STARVING. So since we can’t have croutons, the fries give us enough carbs for our basketball game tomorroooooooow
this might get a little dark but im currently recovering from an eating disorder and the amount of times soup has saved my ass is insane. sometimes when i feel like not eating i can always count on that i can eat soup because i dont have to chew it and it is very healthy if you make it yourself (tomato soup with feta cheese is life) so i agree soup is the best food
cannot even describe the *_whiplash_* I got from that transition between a serious talk about personal space and mistreating animals to all of a sudden Julien thirst ranting about Dr Phil...
About the ticklish conversation: Apparently being tickled stimulates the same part of your brain that is in charge of emotional responses or pain. This is why the body movement of someone being tickled can resemble the movements of someone who is in pain. So it could just be a mechanism that developed to instinctively protect vulnerable parts of the body from unexpected contact, but it doesn't have the same importance anymore, so now it just feels silly and unnecessary.
makes sense why people tickling me when I was a kid was just way too hard and caused me actual pain...probably still true. But idiots like my dad would pretend I was laughing when I was actually going "ow ow ow" like foh..
I'm a virgo and my boyfriend is a scorpio, it is literal hell but I do love him. I feel like aries and scorpio are very similar in annoyingness, or it could just be cuz they're manchilds lol
Now that i am 30 myself i just came here to say that i 100 percent agree on jennas soup take. Over the last years i got from "soup is pretty good" to "soup is so good i should eat more soup" to finally "Heck yeah soup for every meal on every day!"
I was at the Slippery Rock show! I drove up from Pittsburgh that evening, and the room was SO hype - it was really fun to see and be a part of. Thanks again for coming to Pittsburgh, you guys! It was great to see you.
Julien: We are in our house 99% of the time. Me: except for the other .99% where you take your cermit to the vet and the .01% were you do anything else.
I 100% think tickling is a form of abuse for some people and I'll die on this hill. I remember never being safe at family get togethers bc they knew I was ticklish and I would get held down and tickled and it was awful. One time my brother picked me up and was tickling me and I literally peed all over him. I also almost broke a bfs nose when he thought he'd be cute and sneak up on me to tickle my feet. I kicked out and def made his lip bleed. Tickling is basically torture for me, and just because I laughed involuntarily, ppl thought it was funny. But imagine if people could react the way they actually felt (screaming or crying etc.), then it wouldn't be considered such an innocent thing. Now if someone gets close to an especially sensitive spot on my body, I cringe away before they can even touch me. Anyway, this got serious but I really wish people would understand how it feels for some of us. It's not cute.
Kaitlyn Blount, I absolutely agree! My boyfriend (30 years old now) went through the same thing as a child. His sisters would hold him down and tickle him so badly that one time he kicked out involuntarily and kicked his sisters two front teeth out. They did it so often, that it was so traumatizing, that now (same as you) people can’t get close to him without him flinching and pulling away. Even me. Sometimes I’ll forget and casually put my hand on his knee when we’re sitting side by side, and he reels back and if I don’t pull my hand away, he moves his leg away. It’s an absolute shame that he’s been scarred so badly by this. 100%, tickling is a form of abuse when it’s taken that far.
agree. it's harmless to some ppl but personally i hate it so much. all my friends know not to try it bc when though I'll laugh while it's happening I'll be really upset after. i really hate the feeling of not having control of my body and being overpowered...
When my 3 brothers and I were young kids, my mom would tickle us until we were crying in frustration. We would be screaming "Stop! Go away!" and swiping at her and pushing her, but she would interpret it as us being playful and keep doing it. Now that we're all older (the youngest is a teenager), we can actually fight her off and reinforce that we HATE tickling. My guy knows he's not allowed to tickle me, nor does he try.
Honestly! Tickling, while not as serious as sexual abuse, has _many_ links to it, especially with children. You're saying "no, stop" but because your body reacts involuntary your pleas are ignored and your bodily autonomy is taken away. I fucking hate it when people tickle me and for that reason I hate seeing others be tickled, especially children. It's so easy to venture into the realm of domination and abuse without even realising you're doing so. I wish more people could see that.
definitely. when i was twelve i had an uncle that would get me alone with him and tickle me. creepy as hell and literally gave me a bit of ptsd because every time someone tickles me now i get panic attacks.
I find it hilarious that Julien doesn't support grilled cheese with tomato soup, considering it's kind of like pizza in a different form. Bread. Cheese. Tomato Sauce. AMIRITE!?
I train dogs professionally and this is what I would tell my clients, if they were faced with your situation: advocate for your dog and don't let people be disrespectful to them. This means that if/when someone goes to invade your dog's space - and that your dog clearly isn't interested, you need to step in and tell them no. Just because you're at the dog park, it doesn't give people the right to act like rude assholes. Dogs are super sensitive to their personal space and the more they have to speak up in order to be heard (gain space, be left alone, etc), the more reactivity/aggression will manifest. Not cool, people. Not cool. Leave other people's dogs alone and at least, learn to ask before touching. In an age where the word consent is on everyone's lips, I find it baffling that we're still there explaining why treating dogs like stuffed animals is not only wrong, but also ignorant.
yes and. the worst part is when the dog reacts in its equivalent of what a person's reaction would be and then the dog is either put down or put in a watch list and in some cases given to a new home even when the owner is a great one. that or the bread of dog or species of animal is pegged as an aggressive group.
Re:tickles : The theory is it trains you to fight, get insects or animals off you to avoid being bitten etc. Because people are usually most ticklish in weak, senitive body parts. The more you're tickled, the better you get at reacting quickly. The involuntary laughing encourages the tickler to keep going so you get better at wriggling away or scrunching up to defend yourself. So that reaction of like breaking someone's nose is kind of the end goal. Anyway: tickling is highkey awful and there's always someone who takes it too far and doesn't listen when you say stop. 💀
My dad would attACC MY BROTHER AND I WOTH TICKLES WHEN WE WERE LITTLE IT WAS FUN AT FIRST AND THEN UR LIKE OH SHIT ABORT ABORT S T O P also that’s so cool dude i love hearing about these things
Just Trying my Best dude, me too, I literally pissed on my cousins couch cause he wouldn't stop and them every time he tickled me after, he would stop when I would tell him to, cause that's what you're supposed to do
GIRL WE WERE WILDIN BC YOURE THE MOST EXCITING THING TO HAPPEN IN PENNSYLVANIA IN FOREVER AND IT WAS THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER I LOVE YOU AND I CANT BELIEVE WE WERE IN THE SAME ROOM. IM SORRY I DIDNT GET TO MEET YOU BUT IT WAS STILL SO WORTH IT. ALSO JULIEN YOURE SO SWEET AND COOL. I LOVE YOU BOTH. I STRAIGHT UP CRIED GIRL WE COULDA CRIED TOGETHER. But fr love you and thanks for coming! And HELL YEAH.
I hated gym. One time I had hoop earrings in & I sat on the bleachers because I was not doing that shit. & my teacher asked me why I was sitting down and I was like “I can’t run the mile today I have hoop earrings in.”.. It worked, she didn’t argue with me lmao
I remember when they made pizza a vegetable! It had something to do with school lunches, and the fact it had veggies in the sauce. It happened sometime while I was in high school (2010 to 2014)
Don’t even get me STARTED on the mile. I have a muscle and joint disease and I’ve had it since I was little but it took a long time for doctors to figure out what was wrong with me. But since doctors didn’t know what was wrong with me yet I couldn’t get a doctor’s note to get out of running it even though it put me in a ton of physical pain. Even in elementary school when I stopped for a minute to calm down and give my legs a rest the gym teacher would yell at me to start running again. OOOOO THAT GETS ME HEATED.
Max King.. you are on the same level as jnjmemes in my book, keep up the fire comments and let us know if you come across the dink dink intro as a ringtone!!
The official definition of “salad” is: “a cold dish of various mixtures of raw or cooked vegetables, usually seasoned with oil, vinegar, or other dressing and sometimes accompanied by meat, fish, or other ingredients.” So technically, if the French fries are cold, and tossed in ranch, then the Pittsburgh salad is a perfectly valid salad. It’s not a healthy salad, but then neither is mac salad…
I hated it too. I'd like to think I was average lol. We would have the normal 1 mile runs, then quarterly, we would have to run the "journey" a 3 mile run. In middle school. It was awful. Many turned it into a walk lol
Note how ppl are usually ticklish on their thinnest skin. It could be a way for us to automatically protect our softest parts, like how dogs' ears twitch when you poke the little hairs inside
Oh my god. Don’t even get me STARTED on rude dog people who refuse to leash their dogs in places where it is legally required. These ladies in the park were illegally walking several large dogs off leash and one started walking towards my dog and one lady had the GALL to ask if my dog was friendly. Like WTF? Doesn’t matter if my dog is friendly, my dog is on a leash and yours isn’t and mine can’t get away if your dog snaps at her. Leash your damn dog where it is legally required, which is literally most places.
There's a community park by my house with nice paths that connect a residential area to grocery stores so a lot of people use it to walk to grocery stores but almost everyone else uses it as a their own dog park or dog run letting their off leash dogs go crazy. Like they just decided all together that's the new dog run who cares about the COMMUNITY who doesn't want 10 off leash dogs harassing them or trying to get their faces in my grocery bags and I hate it. Or bothrring the leashed dogs
My poor bloodhound has had this happen to her on her walks where there are dogs off leash, and it scares me all the time. Thank god it never happens with my other dog, because he’s aggressive nowadays, he wasn’t before but now I’m always warning people about him before we pass because he’s strong and I refuse to let him see other dogs on walks
YES I live across from a park, which is next to a playground mind you. Everyone let’s their dogs off-leash to run around and play and like I get it, you want to let your furry friend run around!! But you could potentially be putting kids/other dogs in danger. Just makes me nervous :(
Here's my kind of interesting tickle story: So when I was a really young kid, maybe like 5 or 7, my dad used to tickle me. He used to do this "Here comes the claw!" thing and tickle me. But one day it went pretty south and when I was laying down and he was tickling me, my leg swung in the air and I ended up kicking him straight in the head pretty hard. I very vividly remember it because we immediately stopped, and I stopped laughing, and I remember his first response was "Whoa, blacked out there for a moment." It was a bit concerning, but he said he was alright after, and I didn't think much of it. Years later, like 10 years later, when we were going back home from visiting my cousin after she gave birth at a hospital, my dad admitted that the kick to the head was way more serious than I thought it was, and he got admitted into the same hospital. Apparently the morning after I kicked him in the head, when he woke up he could barely move. He was freaking out because of how paralyzed he was and he had to call 911. Even called my uncle saying that if anything happened to him, that my uncle should start looking out for my mom and I. Turns out when he got to the hospital, the kick to the head was so bad that the nurses told him his blood pressure was way too high and he should've been dead, he was lucky to be alive. Although after the nurses told him that, apparently he said to them that he was so proud of me for being able to kick that hard, and that's also how I got enrolled into taekwondo... So considering my soft spot for tickling is my feet, people have learned to not tickle me. Also glad that I didn't accidentally kill my dad!
for anyone curious it works kinda like a segue-off where someone starts and your job is to interject with 'oh didn't you hear?' and connect your topics back and forth until its completely out of control
I hate when people don't ask to pet my dog and they just reach for him. My pup has epilepsy and the stress from a stranger approaching him and reaching for him can trigger seizures.
I got taught to always ask the owner if u can pet there dog then go and let them sniff you and then you do a very soft pet from head to back if they show that they have some interest and if they at all show that they aren’t happy then immediately stop and tell the own thank you
@@facy__lacy Yes! Definitely raised right! I grew up on a ranch so it was practically law on how you approach animals. I just figured it was common sense until I moved closer to the city.
Soup is universal. Ramen is a soup. I freaking love soup. You can have cheesy soup like broccoli and cheese soup. I love soup. It’s literally the best food to eat at all times. You want some noodles? Get some udon or ramen. You want something warming during the cold days? Soup. I love soup. There’s a soup store. It’s universally loved. Like almost every culture has soup. Why? Because it’s simple to make. It’s delicious. It’s nutritious. And it’s comforting. Nothing compares to soup. I fucking love soup.
I completely agree!!!!!!!!! about the dog thing. I dont even think its dog etiquette I feel like its just common sense right? Like if i was yelling at you would you try to hug me? fuck no. I have probably done that a few times but its only when other people were just petting them or they looked very excited and well behaved. Thankfully, I've never had a dog bark at me when i try to pet them. But all of my family and friends think that i have "gift" with animals. Sometimes I'll forget to hold my hand out and I talk quietly and just go for the head and they cower and im liKE nooooOOOOOO BABY I DIDNT MEAN TO SCARE YOU and then i hold my hand out normally. I love you guys so much for touching on the pit stigma
@@chrism45 A friend of mine has the sweetest pitbull. He is well behaved and even fell asleep with his head on my leg, he was SNORING. He's such a sweet guy, because his owners raised him right. They actually cared about him and taught him how to behave. It's so upsetting to see this huge stigma around pitbulls. Especially since they have some of the highest temperaments, ranking above golden retrievers.
the_gay_otaku yeah, I have a pittmix, and she's the smartest most loving dog there is. I've had beagles, and this dog loves me more than those beagles did (don't get me wrong, I love beagles, but they love food more usually, or hunting something). It's her luck that she doesn't look a lot like a pitt, otherwise she would face more shit than she does now.
Ok I so agree with this!!!! I was always taught as a kid to go up and ask the owner if I could pet their dog because sometimes they would say something like not right now he is really stressed or scared or something so I wouldn’t and I think that that is proper dog politeness
pit bulls get a bad rep, but they are actually SUPER affectionate and loyal, thats actually WHY they CAN be so aggressive, because they are people pleasers and want to protect you and be loved and do what makes their owner happy, which is why in the wrong hands they get bad behaviors and aggressive (like with any dog really). Pitbulls are also really just mutts, which is why they are more commonly mistreated, because they are cheap if not free, and easy to obtain, which is why they can get then used and trained for bad purposes. My pit bull is more loving than my lab. I never let anyone really pet my dog on a walk/put in public, because even though my dogs are nice dogs, all dogs can get overstimulated and scared and thats why dogs bite. My dogs were both shelter dogs, one was turned over after eating pot, and one was a stray on the streets, and you just don't know what triggers a dog, even ones you have had since puppies. So for a stranger to go and not ask and just pet your dog is so bad. Like I have known a lot of service animals, and dogs with lots of anxiety and dogs with really bad ear issues where if you pet their ears(like most people do) it puts them in a lot of pain. You should never pet someones dog without asking, you dont know if they are working or if you petting them somewhere will hurt or scare them.
Your rants about animals were spot on. We're taught from day one that other animals are here for us, so eff what they want. Makes me so angry. The big foot analogy was great. We have to look at a situation from the victim/helpless one's point of view.
Yes, we co-evolved with a few species of animals, and yes our ancestors purposely did this for food, travel, and protection. HOWEVER: 1. All animals, including us, have a common ancestor, so no matter what, on a literal and scientific level, no other animals were "put on this earth" for us. 2. The actions of our (human) ancestors are not a valid reason to keep doing something. If you need examples, just think of the obvious ones, like slavery and the treatment of women. I'm not equating the situations, but as a comparison, I'm saying that people living in those times felt completely justified in their thoughts and actions towards those without power.
As a severe asthmatic, I always had to do the mile but I was lucky that as long as I finished they gave me an A. Other students had to make certain times. But I remember the last time I had to do the mile in HS (I don't believe it was the last time the class did), the teacher demanded I did the mile when he knew I was doing physical therapy for my knee and my asthma was acting up. I think I finished (he may have stopped me early) but I remember being so out of it that I just kept barely shuffling around the track. He had to run after me and physically stop me and sit me down. It also aggravated my knee and I ended up on crutches for a couple weeks. Dude thought he was going to get fired and kept apologizing to me. I later ended up getting out the physical portion of our tests for the rest of the year....although paper tests in gym class suck as well.
I've never understood teachers that push kids in gym. I am not a good swimmer, I can keep myself up but swimming was always a fear of mine. In HS we had swimming as part of our gym curriculum, and I had told my gym teacher that I couldn't swim well and wasn't comfortable diving head first into the pool. She made me do it anyway, in front of everyone. I hit my head, got really disoriented and inhaled a bunch of water. Fortunately I was able to pull myself out. I wish I would have said something to the principal or anyone for that matter. She should have been reprimanded for that.
My dad insists on getting a paper receipt for everything and it’s SO ANNOYING Also, I think a lot of people don’t like cats or think they are “evil” because they treat cats like dogs. Cats aren’t dogs and they have different needs and boundaries.
I’d always been told that being ticklish is a defence mechanism, because all the places where you’re ticklish (neck, armpits, feet) are vulnerable spots where you’ve got large veins that are quite close to the surface, so it’s a dramatic advanced warning for any type of danger in those areas. Ya know?
I think when you're really seriously not enjoying it, you're also not laughing. Just imagine it in a horrid situation, with a total stranger doing it, you'd be definitely more pissed, angry, scared than anything. Especially if you can't get away. And when someone's tickling you whom you know well (and like) you'd know that this person is able to see and notice when you've clearly had enough. So there's trust involved that nothing bad will happen. Also, I think people who "hate" tickling probably had only people around them who didn't know when to stop and then as a kid, you'll get scared because one, it doesn't stop, and two, you and your boundaries aren't being respected. When you tickle your friend you don't want him to get pissed or hurt, the goal is not to stress out or show severe domenance. Your words Jenna, "DO NO HARM!" ;)
woodyhoddy Have to disagree about the people who hate tickling thing. It's too general a statement. I have never found tickling of any kind enjoyable. It feels like a sensory overload and my brain just wants to make it stop. It's like when Julian said it was between pleasure and fight or flight, for me it is all fight or flight.
About the mile; I would always run a 12 min mile, I always felt like I was going to pass out & my body would kill me. I wasn’t out of shape or lazy, I had multiple health issues I didn’t even know about. Turns out I have an autonomic dysfunction (I’ve had my whole life) & a tear in each hip ligament that I’ve had since I was 4. In conclusion THE MILE IS BULLSHIT.
I've lived with animals my whole life and my dad works with horses for a living, and the worst problems we've ever had with any of our pets or with his work have been caused by people who don't know what they're doing. When people mess up, especially around larger animals like horses, they blame the animal for reacting in a natural way to the person doing something stupid. That was the first thing I learned as a kid around horses, to read the animal and give them the respect they deserve. Honestly people drive me crazy sometimes, especially people who either have no sense when it comes to animals or those who think they know more about your pet than you do. Giving animals respect is the number one thing you should do whenever you come into contact with them.

Good human guide to befriending pets!
1. Ask pup’s parent if you can pet them
2. kneel slowly down to pup’s level
3. Use soft whisper ASMR voice to introduce yourself
4. Let them see the palms of your hand, giving them the option to smell you and get used to you
5. If pup engages, give gentle pets on head or back
Bonus: if pup has a service vest on, do not engage. That pup is working hard for it’s human friend! admire at a distance
Introduce your hand in a fist to let the pup smell you! If you stick your hand out flat the pup could bite your fingers and it will hurt! But if you let them smell a fist and they try to bite it, it won't hurt as much.
I'm glad to see you include that last part. Absolutely do not engage a service animal UNLESS you see one alone. In that instance, still don't pet the animal. Ask him/her what's wrong and to show you. Then, you follow them. This is because if they are alone, the person they are helping more than likely needs human help of some sort.
Nails Are Life from what little I know about service dogs, you’re probably right, if they’re alone but have a vest on, maybe their human has had a seizure or panic attack or something and the dog has gone for help. Same as a service dog barking a lot, I’d just follow it hoping it will lead me to the hurt person.
It always makes me SO MAD when I see people walk up and start petting service dogs. People are liter idiots.
Thank you! As a service dog handler, we don't mind the admiration. We get it; they're adorable! But hey, my life can literally depend on them catching cues so if you're over here making kissy noises at the "puppy" I might die. So please don't. Also, it's illegal. If you have questions, you can approach, just ignore the dog unless the handler says it's okay. Most handlers don't mind helping to educate (plus we gush over our fur babies just everyone else!) Remember, we're normal people!
Jenna is right. Soup is the perfect food for all the reasons she stated. Soup may not be people's FAVORITE food, but it is the perfect food.

Okay but Julien ranting about the mile actually speaks to my soul. I’m still in high school and most of the year I’m not worrying about grades, I’m worrying about being embarrassed in front of my class during the damn mile.
Kaylee Marie when I was in High School we had to run a mile on the track which is 4 laps. We had to run each lap in under 2 minutes, or THE WHOLE CLASS HAD TO RUN THE LAP AGAIN. I was pretty slow and that last lap was damn near impossible for me to do in 2 min. So the mile on top of a healthy dose of judgement, hatred, and bullying. So, I feel your pain. My prayers are with you! Lol
Also I left high school 10 years ago and I still think about that day and teacher all time.
Kaylee Marie omg a mood
BRO DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED, IM IN HIGH SCHOOL AND THE ONLY THING I THINK ABOUT IS THAT DAMN MILE AND HOW I LOOK LIKE A DUMB ASS BECAUSE I HAVE A 9 MINUTE MILE BC MY LEGS R SHORT
I was that kid who chose to walk it because I was a rebel 😂
don't even get me started on how good this podcast is
No you already started now finish
Start bitch
DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED on how I wish it went on longer
Oooooooo :O
Julien spitting red hot TRUTH about how pointless running the mile in school is
I dont remember this being a thing when I was in school but my daughter is in gr 7 this yr and THEY have to run the mile! She was sooooo anxious about it!
I technically had to run the mile in school but I took gym as a senior and so my gym teacher just made me take attendance everyday and hand out papers instead of actually doing gym, but you could do the mile and make it in time while WALKING, it really is pointless, I think it would be better to have health class and not gym but a class but a class about how to stay fit and healthy, but gym was so pointless in hs. I also played three sports in highschool and I feel like if you play a sport you should get out of gym, I was running or swimming at LEAST 3 miles a day every day after school already on top of everything else.
I used to baby sit this little girl and her mom had 3 dogs. Two of the dogs were very sweet and always cuddled with me right away, but there was this one Chihuahua who had trust issues. Like at first he would growl at me when I would walk by. But it only took a few times just kinda keeping my distance and showing the dog how I treated the other dogs. And soon enough I would come over and the dog would greet me at the door with a wag and when I would sit down he would plop down on my lap. And I think that’s why people hate Chihuahuas, Pitbulls, cats etc. They automatically assume that the animal would love them. Okay thanks for coming to my ted talk.
love this
that’s why people hate cats too
Jenna and Julien! To answer you tickle question, we actually talked about this in out anatomy class. So tickling is actually a form of pain that the body cannot process to the point of actually showing normal pain signs. If you think about it, the places where you are the most ticklish have the most nerve endings (armpit, behind the knee, etc.) The nerve endings become stimulated sending the response to the brain and tells it there is something that might be threatening. The mend then responds to let you know this sensation is happening by making you laugh, jolt out of the way from it, cry (just like when cutting an onion because your body is saying there is an oder/gas that is harmful), and, in some people, act more aggressively due to the flight or fight theory (tickling cause your body to let out small amounts of adrenalin). For our family psychology class, we talked about the theory behind why parents tickle their kids and how it is a bonding moment. When you laugh your body releases serotonin which makes your mood stable/happy. You get this every time you let your dogs as well. So the excess serotonin released by each person could cause them to create a better bond. Usually it is just the fact that the parent is spending time with the child. Hope this helped! Love watching your podcasts and channels!! You make my day better!
Omg that was so sexy, pls tickle me.
@@ohJoeyLies haha what the heck 😂😂😂
I hope you get straight As for the rest of your year
You deserve it
Kai wagner my dad used to tickle me as a child against my will all the time. i always have hated to be tickled makes my anxiety or some shit go up and i cant breathe and wanna cry lol i’d have to tell him ima pee myself if he doesn’t stop. was the worst lmfao. he was just tryna be fun but my gosh did i hate it lmfao
I heard that generally the most sensitive areas, like neck and armpits, are where like major artiteries are located? I dont know if thats right though...
Hi Jenna. I was in the crowd at SRU. I was so excited to be there with you in the same room, take from your words of wisdom. And hear you talk about your passions, loves, and happiness. I wish I got the chance to meet you. And tell you how much I appreciate you and Julien. Love you guys. #dink
LITERALLY SO JEALOUS!! I go to Pennstate Behrend in Erie and I wish we could get amazing people like Jenna to come!!
same! I would be so overwhelmed by that, it was a crazy experience just as a fan (first one in the door actually although not vip) so I cannot imagine walking out on that stage. It would probably be great but also a bit terrifying to have a visual of all the people listening to you and looking up to you - thankfully they do a great job influencing viewers in a good way just by enjoying themselves on camera and not being afraid to do things that are "out there".
Omg that so amazing!! I live in bethel park and when I heard they were coming I was so excited!!

Teach your children consent when it comes to animals so when they are older its easier for them to understand consent when it comes to human interaction
its also pretty easy to teach them consent with people too, like asking their friends if they want a hug before giving them a hug
I’ve taught my kids consent from the time they can talk. They obviously don’t know sexual consent until they are a bit older, but as soon as they can talk I tell them that someone shouldn’t have to tell them to stop more than once. I teach them that people can sometimes think something is fun at first, but then stop having fun and then want you to stop (like being tickled). And so on. It’s not one talk you have when their teenagers.. it’s a constant talk that you have that evolves over time.
Danny Grimes Exactly. Ask before hugs, don’t go at someone’s face to kiss them, don’t hold someone’s hands without asking. Consent talks should start at a very young age.
SOUP IS THE BEST MEAL EVER. IT'S A WARM EMBRACE AGAIN AND AGAIN. LIKE A HUG FROM A MOTHER, BUT AROUND YOUR INNARDS.
Haha. Innards.
Cassandra Teal honestly the best description of soup I've ever read. You should contact the people that make encyclopedias and get that shit in there

I made a meme once of a picture of soup with the lyics 'you don't have to love me, you don't even have to like me, but you will respect me.' After someone laughed at me for liking soup, because it's boring..
Well, soups ARE awesome, so I get it :)

Our gym teacher would hand us straws every time we made a lap around the track for our mile to make sure we did all four(?) laps, so a kid in my class bought a bag of the same plastic straws the gym teacher has and handed them out to people to make it look like we did more laps than we actually did. And we totally got away with it every time.
Jenny Alber real MVP
I did 3 laps instead of 4 my first time doing the mile, and so the teacher thought that was my normal time. I always just casually walked and went in with everyone else. I never once did the full mile 😂😂 fuck that shit
Jenny Alber I remember running in elementary school especially big events. But I never ran nor did I walk. I was that one asshole with the sprained ankle or headache.
being ticklish helps identify foreign stuff on your body, like with the spider example. if a bug is crawling on you, you get tickled and the immediate reaction is to slap it off, just as you try to push and kick a person away if they are tickling you. as for the laughing part, wanting to be touched/being playful is really what makes you laugh. it's like with any touching, if you are tickled by a friend you are inclined to laugh bc it is familiar and harmless (same with letting a bug crawl on your hand), but if a stranger tried tickling you you'd scream or tell them to fuck off. tickling is not an enjoyable sensation, so it makes sense that after a while laughter turns into annoyance, because as an evolutionary thing its supposed to warn you of mosquitos and shit
This is the best explanation I've seen, it makes so much sense.
Lala & Rito well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree lol
Idk, with this explanation you make it seem like the laughter is voluntary, but I've always equated tickling to torture, always made it known that I hated it, and I still laughed. I don't think the laughter is anything you can control, regardless of who's tickling, whether it's someone familiar or a stranger. But the rest of your explanation makes a lot of sense.
laughing is also a stress response

YAS! Jenna and Julien please make an animal etiquette podcast or youtube video or PSA! CONSENT for animals. I have a rescue and he is extremely shy with people he doesn't know. If someone asks, I always tell them please get down to his level and let him smell you, DO NOT GO UP TO HIM AND PAT HIM RIGHT ON THE HEAD! Kids are the worst. Consent needs to be taught to kids for their own bodies and for animals!! Love you guys. Thank you! :P
I was never good with endurance so the amount of anxiety I got from hearing "We're gonna run the mile today" has stuck with me even to adulthood. The best time I ever had was 8 minutes in high school for softball. In elementary school I would literally hang back with everyone else and just make sure they were okay and try to pump them up lol I was literally the fitness trainer for everyone else while our fat P.E. teacher stood on the side timing us. It honestly segregated so hard the people like Julian and those of us who were still running while they were sitting there watching.
90% of my PE teachers looked like professional athletes and my joints went to shit after my first growth spurt. I had nightmares about distance running.
What was worse for me is that if you were a significant amount slower than like I was, the fast kids they would do a sympathy run. they would run another 1-3 laps with the slow person. It was incredibly embarrassing!!!!
I would always be last and like as a middle schooler w emotions and hormones and shit I would be bawling it was so embarrassing
it’s LIBRA SEASON and we gon’ keep all our foods nice n BALANCED this season hELL yeah grilled cheese n tomato soup bb

BEST. SEGUE. YET. *standing ovation to Julien*
I stopped scrolling through the comments so I didn't get spoiled 🤣Lmao it was perfect
Noooo the best segue way is on the "honest company slogans" podcast.. Jenna totally didn't even catch it till a couple mins later lol from March 2016
I felt the running the mile rant in my soul “just so some out of shape P.E teacher could stand there and judge my mile” that used to make me so so mad, cuz I was chubbier than my classmates and I didn’t do well in P.E though I tried my very best. My p.e teacher would just stand there and tell me to run faster and in my head I’m like “you come out here and run faster”
My gym teacher was the same, some guys in my class actually said that to him and to our surprise he actually came out and did it. But I mean he only did it for a lap in the gym, so we were still pressed.
Totally agree! Except all my gym teachers from elementary thru high school were all super fit
Yea thanks p.e. for making me insecure about my physical capabilities. Pretty much every guy in my class played football, so they were all really good at endurance, like running a mile. And of course literally all we did and got graded on was endurance. I thought i was just this unathletic guy who couldn't perform well, even with a lot of training. Destined to be "that one unfit dude".
Cut to when i started going to the gym a couple of years ago where i found out i am great at explosive exercises like weightlifting and sprinting. Right when i started i could even do things like 8 proper form pull ups, something a lot of athletic people even struggle with. If you told me that i wouldn't have been so insecure. I should've known because my brothers also do weightlifting, just like my father when he was young. The confidence boost i got since then is massive, now i'm in great shape and love exercise.
If we would've been tested on that kind of stuff i would've out sprinted most of my classmates no doubt in a 100 meter dash. But nooo, we had to do the Cooper test and shuttle runs (no, shuttle runs don't properly test sprinting, it's way more endurance).
So yea screw p.e., it's a dumb class destroying kids their confidence. A completely useless class in high school, and the fact that it's still a thing actually annoys me so much. Hang in there kids.
I feel like this is such a great argument for diversified PE classes. Kids give up on the idea of sports and physical activity because the environment in most health/gym classes favours a specific type of athlete. I think of all the kids who found weightlifting and other activities after years of hating PE, and it reminds me of the many who gave up because there was no psychological safety in their exploration of sports and no understanding of varying skills and abilities.
I used to skip gym or do the bare minimum, but I played sports and was a runner for most of my teen years. I just hated gym.
I totally agree. I thought I was unfit and bad at sports and getting bullied by teacher and the peers did not help. We were forced to do different kind of sports and I didn't realize then but I was so anxious about being at least moderate at sports it gave me anxiety. I hated running. So. Much.
And then I got in high school and our teacher was so understanding and cool I got motivated. I started running long distance with my sis and actually got 9/10 in Cooper Test. So f*ck u p.e. Childhood os not supposed to be spent by measuring everything to the point you make a child lose hope of ever achieving anything.
@@YuinRuri
The same thing can be said about grades in general. For some kids if they just aren't good at taking tests or something and they don't get excellent grades they just assume they're dumb and give up, it's really sad.
The reason the Pittsburgh Salad has fries on it is because it's a derivative of a famous Pittsburgh sandwich. The sandwich has french fries and coleslaw on it and its origin story is that the steel workers would put everything together in one so they could eat it quickly and wouldn't have to carry a lot to the mills and mines.
Love Primanti! 💜

The pittsburgh salad sounds pretty disgusting to be honest but I'd eat the sandwich.

Hey, I know this is random but I want to say thank you.
Let me explain.
I struggle with something that gives me intense panic attacks, I've been getting them almost every night because I can't calm my mind. I had tried watching videos before but it didn't really work. Then I thought to listen to you guys at night. I love the show anyway so I tried it.
I can finally sleep, I can finally relax. Just listening to you guys chat helps me distract my mind from the madness.
So thank you. For doing this.
I thought I would say, your doing something great and I wanted you to know
Same boat, friendo. Hope you are doing better.
I identify with this wholeheartedly
Same!
this is such a great reply section its so nice, I don't really have anxiety but I do have a problem with falling asleep (which I will probably get checked out because I don't want to self diagnose) and I do have adhd which makes it hard for mind to calm down so I can relax. So these videos help me in a similar way.
@@zaydbrewer4187 I also have ADHD so I find that giving my brain a full focus it's kinda prevents a panic attack bc I'm too busy thinking about everything and all the details on what they talk about
actually tho, if i ever got to go to one of your college presentations, i’d seriously die. like, i’d be so happy and excited i’d physically combust. you guys are some of my favorite human beings. if i ever meet you, my life will be complete.

Came to the comments to find someone defending the pittsburgh salad. BLESS.
this might get a little dark but im currently recovering from an eating disorder and the amount of times soup has saved my ass is insane. sometimes when i feel like not eating i can always count on that i can eat soup because i dont have to chew it and it is very healthy if you make it yourself (tomato soup with feta cheese is life) so i agree soup is the best food

cannot even describe the *_whiplash_* I got from that transition between a serious talk about personal space and mistreating animals to all of a sudden Julien thirst ranting about Dr Phil...
About the ticklish conversation: Apparently being tickled stimulates the same part of your brain that is in charge of emotional responses or pain. This is why the body movement of someone being tickled can resemble the movements of someone who is in pain. So it could just be a mechanism that developed to instinctively protect vulnerable parts of the body from unexpected contact, but it doesn't have the same importance anymore, so now it just feels silly and unnecessary.
makes sense why people tickling me when I was a kid was just way too hard and caused me actual pain...probably still true. But idiots like my dad would pretend I was laughing when I was actually going "ow ow ow" like foh..
This makes sense. I hope they see this and get their answer lol
Don’t even get me started on people who squirt ketchup ON TOP of their fries instead of on the side.

Man child 😂 Thats the perfect way to explain it. I mean it in the best way, I love that about my fire sign
I'm a leo my brother is an aries so we just try to one up each other constantly
Now that i am 30 myself i just came here to say that i 100 percent agree on jennas soup take.
Over the last years i got from "soup is pretty good" to "soup is so good i should eat more soup" to finally "Heck yeah soup for every meal on every day!"
Julien lives his life like he’s a shot of tequila: more lime, more salt.
Julien ranting about the mile has. me. lit. PREACH!
I was at the Slippery Rock show! I drove up from Pittsburgh that evening, and the room was SO hype - it was really fun to see and be a part of. Thanks again for coming to Pittsburgh, you guys! It was great to see you.
Julien: We are in our house 99% of the time.
Me: except for the other .99% where you take your cermit to the vet and the .01% were you do anything else.
I 100% think tickling is a form of abuse for some people and I'll die on this hill. I remember never being safe at family get togethers bc they knew I was ticklish and I would get held down and tickled and it was awful. One time my brother picked me up and was tickling me and I literally peed all over him. I also almost broke a bfs nose when he thought he'd be cute and sneak up on me to tickle my feet. I kicked out and def made his lip bleed. Tickling is basically torture for me, and just because I laughed involuntarily, ppl thought it was funny. But imagine if people could react the way they actually felt (screaming or crying etc.), then it wouldn't be considered such an innocent thing. Now if someone gets close to an especially sensitive spot on my body, I cringe away before they can even touch me.
Anyway, this got serious but I really wish people would understand how it feels for some of us. It's not cute.
Kaitlyn Blount, I absolutely agree! My boyfriend (30 years old now) went through the same thing as a child. His sisters would hold him down and tickle him so badly that one time he kicked out involuntarily and kicked his sisters two front teeth out. They did it so often, that it was so traumatizing, that now (same as you) people can’t get close to him without him flinching and pulling away. Even me. Sometimes I’ll forget and casually put my hand on his knee when we’re sitting side by side, and he reels back and if I don’t pull my hand away, he moves his leg away. It’s an absolute shame that he’s been scarred so badly by this. 100%, tickling is a form of abuse when it’s taken that far.
agree. it's harmless to some ppl but personally i hate it so much. all my friends know not to try it bc when though I'll laugh while it's happening I'll be really upset after. i really hate the feeling of not having control of my body and being overpowered...
When my 3 brothers and I were young kids, my mom would tickle us until we were crying in frustration. We would be screaming "Stop! Go away!" and swiping at her and pushing her, but she would interpret it as us being playful and keep doing it. Now that we're all older (the youngest is a teenager), we can actually fight her off and reinforce that we HATE tickling. My guy knows he's not allowed to tickle me, nor does he try.
Honestly! Tickling, while not as serious as sexual abuse, has _many_ links to it, especially with children. You're saying "no, stop" but because your body reacts involuntary your pleas are ignored and your bodily autonomy is taken away. I fucking hate it when people tickle me and for that reason I hate seeing others be tickled, especially children. It's so easy to venture into the realm of domination and abuse without even realising you're doing so. I wish more people could see that.
definitely. when i was twelve i had an uncle that would get me alone with him and tickle me. creepy as hell and literally gave me a bit of ptsd because every time someone tickles me now i get panic attacks.
I find it hilarious that Julien doesn't support grilled cheese with tomato soup, considering it's kind of like pizza in a different form. Bread. Cheese. Tomato Sauce. AMIRITE!?
I know I'm a little bit angry...
Oof
“What’s better than soup?”
“Pizza”
Then shits on tomato soup and grilled cheese, which is THE soup form of pizza! 🤦🏼♀️ lol
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID
I train dogs professionally and this is what I would tell my clients, if they were faced with your situation: advocate for your dog and don't let people be disrespectful to them.
This means that if/when someone goes to invade your dog's space - and that your dog clearly isn't interested, you need to step in and tell them no. Just because you're at the dog park, it doesn't give people the right to act like rude assholes.
Dogs are super sensitive to their personal space and the more they have to speak up in order to be heard (gain space, be left alone, etc), the more reactivity/aggression will manifest.
Not cool, people. Not cool. Leave other people's dogs alone and at least, learn to ask before touching. In an age where the word consent is on everyone's lips, I find it baffling that we're still there explaining why treating dogs like stuffed animals is not only wrong, but also ignorant.
yes and. the worst part is when the dog reacts in its equivalent of what a person's reaction would be and then the dog is either put down or put in a watch list and in some cases given to a new home even when the owner is a great one. that or the bread of dog or species of animal is pegged as an aggressive group.
Re:tickles : The theory is it trains you to fight, get insects or animals off you to avoid being bitten etc. Because people are usually most ticklish in weak, senitive body parts. The more you're tickled, the better you get at reacting quickly. The involuntary laughing encourages the tickler to keep going so you get better at wriggling away or scrunching up to defend yourself. So that reaction of like breaking someone's nose is kind of the end goal.
Anyway: tickling is highkey awful and there's always someone who takes it too far and doesn't listen when you say stop. 💀
I've literally vomitted from someone tickling me and not stopping when i told them to. I have asthma and couldn't breathe and started gagging.
My dad would attACC MY BROTHER AND I WOTH TICKLES WHEN WE WERE LITTLE IT WAS FUN AT FIRST AND THEN UR LIKE OH SHIT ABORT ABORT S T O P also that’s so cool dude i love hearing about these things
I piss when people tickle me too much
Just Trying my Best dude, me too, I literally pissed on my cousins couch cause he wouldn't stop and them every time he tickled me after, he would stop when I would tell him to, cause that's what you're supposed to do
GIRL WE WERE WILDIN BC YOURE THE MOST EXCITING THING TO HAPPEN IN PENNSYLVANIA IN FOREVER AND IT WAS THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER I LOVE YOU AND I CANT BELIEVE WE WERE IN THE SAME ROOM. IM SORRY I DIDNT GET TO MEET YOU BUT IT WAS STILL SO WORTH IT. ALSO JULIEN YOURE SO SWEET AND COOL. I LOVE YOU BOTH. I STRAIGHT UP CRIED GIRL WE COULDA CRIED TOGETHER. But fr love you and thanks for coming! And HELL YEAH.
The only good thing that's come to PA honetly.
I hated gym. One time I had hoop earrings in & I sat on the bleachers because I was not doing that shit. & my teacher asked me why I was sitting down and I was like “I can’t run the mile today I have hoop earrings in.”..
It worked, she didn’t argue with me lmao
I remember when they made pizza a vegetable! It had something to do with school lunches, and the fact it had veggies in the sauce. It happened sometime while I was in high school (2010 to 2014)
Kiley Diviney I was in Hs during that time too and I feel like it wasn’t during that time /:
SummerNicole I looked it up because I was curious! It was in 2011 because of a vote on the annual spending bill for the Department of Agriculture.
The tomato sauce on an individual pizza counts as a 1/4 cup serving of vegetables. It counts towards the required cup.
I love how when Jenna tells stories she includes EVERY detail, I’m a Virgo too and that’s 100% how I tell stories too😭🤣
Don’t even get me STARTED on the mile. I have a muscle and joint disease and I’ve had it since I was little but it took a long time for doctors to figure out what was wrong with me. But since doctors didn’t know what was wrong with me yet I couldn’t get a doctor’s note to get out of running it even though it put me in a ton of physical pain. Even in elementary school when I stopped for a minute to calm down and give my legs a rest the gym teacher would yell at me to start running again. OOOOO THAT GETS ME HEATED.
Tickling is the lightest form of pain and not enough to always entice a scream but enough warrant a reaction and why most people dont enjoy it
Is that why tickling is arousing to some people? Like the feather tickle type people? Bdsm? Lol
MY NAME IS JULIEN AND I HAVE TO RUN A MILE TOMORROW
Kaitlyn Gearst 😂😂
No no no...
my name is julien and I HAVE TO THE MiLe ToMoRrOw
thank youuuuuuuu
You got a track for the mile? We just got a muddy, uneven field! 😭
i'm still waiting for someone to make a ringtone out of their intro
I need it
Max King.. you are on the same level as jnjmemes in my book, keep up the fire comments and let us know if you come across the dink dink intro as a ringtone!!
yes yes yes
hes got a GREAT channel
I used to have their intro as my ringtone
“Babe it’s not Virgo season anymore it’s Libra season” yess beach thats right
That Montana waiter pulled the biggest power move of the century
The official definition of “salad” is:
“a cold dish of various mixtures of raw or cooked vegetables, usually seasoned with oil, vinegar, or other dressing and sometimes accompanied by meat, fish, or other ingredients.”
So technically, if the French fries are cold, and tossed in ranch, then the Pittsburgh salad is a perfectly valid salad. It’s not a healthy salad, but then neither is mac salad…
As a fat kid growing up, I can relate to the stupid mile run. Thank you PE for my body complex growing up😂
Monica Cuevas I wasn’t even fat and I hated the mile run 😂
I hated it too. I'd like to think I was average lol. We would have the normal 1 mile runs, then quarterly, we would have to run the "journey" a 3 mile run. In middle school. It was awful. Many turned it into a walk lol
Shit I thought I wrote this, too true!
The pacer test is run till you can’t run no more
Potato salad, mac salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, shrimp salad, IT'S ALL DIFFERENT WORDS FOR ADD MAYONNAISE!
I think about this like everyday
I just accidentally thought of fruit salad with mayonnaise and now I wanna die
Note how ppl are usually ticklish on their thinnest skin. It could be a way for us to automatically protect our softest parts, like how dogs' ears twitch when you poke the little hairs inside
Huh, how interesting 😂
Interesting. But your feet has the thickest skin.
Kaitlin but ur feet are only ticklish in the soft thinner parts, not the rough thick parts
But laughing doesn’t protect us
What are you on
Jenna: they make like bacon cheeseburger soup
Julien: no they don’t
Jenna: yes they do!
Julien: ok....
I share Jenna’s love for soup 😂 it is literally the best all year round for me too haha no one else I know loves soup either
Same! I've always connected to her on a spiritual level over this soup love! People that don't love soup are what is wrong with this world
Trina bo bina banana fana fo fina literally same. a warm gooey hug for ur insides
Oh my god. Don’t even get me STARTED on rude dog people who refuse to leash their dogs in places where it is legally required. These ladies in the park were illegally walking several large dogs off leash and one started walking towards my dog and one lady had the GALL to ask if my dog was friendly. Like WTF? Doesn’t matter if my dog is friendly, my dog is on a leash and yours isn’t and mine can’t get away if your dog snaps at her. Leash your damn dog where it is legally required, which is literally most places.
There's a community park by my house with nice paths that connect a residential area to grocery stores so a lot of people use it to walk to grocery stores but almost everyone else uses it as a their own dog park or dog run letting their off leash dogs go crazy. Like they just decided all together that's the new dog run who cares about the COMMUNITY who doesn't want 10 off leash dogs harassing them or trying to get their faces in my grocery bags and I hate it. Or bothrring the leashed dogs
OMFG YES I AM ALWAYS SO PISSED THAT PEOPLE GET ANGRY FOR A FIGHT THAT COULDVE BEEN AVOIDED IF WE HAD LEASHES ON
My poor bloodhound has had this happen to her on her walks where there are dogs off leash, and it scares me all the time. Thank god it never happens with my other dog, because he’s aggressive nowadays, he wasn’t before but now I’m always warning people about him before we pass because he’s strong and I refuse to let him see other dogs on walks
The bloodhound is sweet as hell to other dogs and I haven’t had fights but it’s bullshit to let your dog off leash In parks or public places
YES I live across from a park, which is next to a playground mind you. Everyone let’s their dogs off-leash to run around and play and like I get it, you want to let your furry friend run around!! But you could potentially be putting kids/other dogs in danger. Just makes me nervous :(
Here's my kind of interesting tickle story:
So when I was a really young kid, maybe like 5 or 7, my dad used to tickle me. He used to do this "Here comes the claw!" thing and tickle me. But one day it went pretty south and when I was laying down and he was tickling me, my leg swung in the air and I ended up kicking him straight in the head pretty hard. I very vividly remember it because we immediately stopped, and I stopped laughing, and I remember his first response was "Whoa, blacked out there for a moment." It was a bit concerning, but he said he was alright after, and I didn't think much of it. Years later, like 10 years later, when we were going back home from visiting my cousin after she gave birth at a hospital, my dad admitted that the kick to the head was way more serious than I thought it was, and he got admitted into the same hospital. Apparently the morning after I kicked him in the head, when he woke up he could barely move. He was freaking out because of how paralyzed he was and he had to call 911. Even called my uncle saying that if anything happened to him, that my uncle should start looking out for my mom and I. Turns out when he got to the hospital, the kick to the head was so bad that the nurses told him his blood pressure was way too high and he should've been dead, he was lucky to be alive. Although after the nurses told him that, apparently he said to them that he was so proud of me for being able to kick that hard, and that's also how I got enrolled into taekwondo...
So considering my soft spot for tickling is my feet, people have learned to not tickle me. Also glad that I didn't accidentally kill my dad!
This was an absolute rollercoaster
Dang
My god. Well I wish yall well, thats one hell of a story Dink fam. xoxo
Cheddar broccoli soup!?!?
My exact thought at that moment lmao
I love you
The best!
I was screaming "Broccoli Cheddar Soup!!!" with the Windows down 😆😆😆
Has julien ever heard of cheddar broccoli soup?
Or beer cheese soup or Wisconsin cheese soup or cheddar potato soup. There are so many cheesy soups
Right?? Broccoli cheese soup is my absolute favourite shit, it's so good
cheddar broccoli soup is what I instantly thought of when it came to cheese in a salad and now that's all I want because it's so fucking goooood
I make potato soup and dump cheddar all over it and ZOMG so good.
French onion soup 🤤
there's a spinoff game called 'oh didnt you hear?" where you spin off of each other conspiracy theories and yall would be INCREDIBLE at it
PLEASE DO THIS OMG
DO THIS
for anyone curious it works kinda like a segue-off where someone starts and your job is to interject with 'oh didn't you hear?' and connect your topics back and forth until its completely out of control
+1
I hate when people don't ask to pet my dog and they just reach for him. My pup has epilepsy and the stress from a stranger approaching him and reaching for him can trigger seizures.
Aww that's sad and it is a common courtesy to ask first before petting a stranger's dog
Thank you! So far I just keep him home. He's a cute little Boston Terrier.
I got taught to always ask the owner if u can pet there dog then go and let them sniff you and then you do a very soft pet from head to back if they show that they have some interest and if they at all show that they aren’t happy then immediately stop and tell the own thank you
@@facy__lacy Yes! Definitely raised right! I grew up on a ranch so it was practically law on how you approach animals. I just figured it was common sense until I moved closer to the city.
ngl I love dogs but I'm scared to even be in the same path as them so hearing that is just crazy.
"It slaps your tongue on the butt, and your butt is like "Oh?" "Okay"" that KILLED me
Soup is universal. Ramen is a soup. I freaking love soup. You can have cheesy soup like broccoli and cheese soup. I love soup. It’s literally the best food to eat at all times. You want some noodles? Get some udon or ramen. You want something warming during the cold days? Soup. I love soup. There’s a soup store. It’s universally loved. Like almost every culture has soup. Why? Because it’s simple to make. It’s delicious. It’s nutritious. And it’s comforting. Nothing compares to soup. I fucking love soup.
“It slaps your tongue on the *ass* .” -Julien Solomita
I completely agree!!!!!!!!! about the dog thing. I dont even think its dog etiquette I feel like its just common sense right? Like if i was yelling at you would you try to hug me? fuck no. I have probably done that a few times but its only when other people were just petting them or they looked very excited and well behaved. Thankfully, I've never had a dog bark at me when i try to pet them. But all of my family and friends think that i have "gift" with animals. Sometimes I'll forget to hold my hand out and I talk quietly and just go for the head and they cower and im liKE nooooOOOOOO BABY I DIDNT MEAN TO SCARE YOU and then i hold my hand out normally. I love you guys so much for touching on the pit stigma
I think assholes like pittbulls so they tend to get them and ignore them which makes them bad.
@@chrism45 A friend of mine has the sweetest pitbull. He is well behaved and even fell asleep with his head on my leg, he was SNORING. He's such a sweet guy, because his owners raised him right. They actually cared about him and taught him how to behave. It's so upsetting to see this huge stigma around pitbulls. Especially since they have some of the highest temperaments, ranking above golden retrievers.
the_gay_otaku yeah, I have a pittmix, and she's the smartest most loving dog there is. I've had beagles, and this dog loves me more than those beagles did (don't get me wrong, I love beagles, but they love food more usually, or hunting something). It's her luck that she doesn't look a lot like a pitt, otherwise she would face more shit than she does now.
Ok I so agree with this!!!! I was always taught as a kid to go up and ask the owner if I could pet their dog because sometimes they would say something like not right now he is really stressed or scared or something so I wouldn’t and I think that that is proper dog politeness
pit bulls get a bad rep, but they are actually SUPER affectionate and loyal, thats actually WHY they CAN be so aggressive, because they are people pleasers and want to protect you and be loved and do what makes their owner happy, which is why in the wrong hands they get bad behaviors and aggressive (like with any dog really). Pitbulls are also really just mutts, which is why they are more commonly mistreated, because they are cheap if not free, and easy to obtain, which is why they can get then used and trained for bad purposes. My pit bull is more loving than my lab. I never let anyone really pet my dog on a walk/put in public, because even though my dogs are nice dogs, all dogs can get overstimulated and scared and thats why dogs bite. My dogs were both shelter dogs, one was turned over after eating pot, and one was a stray on the streets, and you just don't know what triggers a dog, even ones you have had since puppies. So for a stranger to go and not ask and just pet your dog is so bad. Like I have known a lot of service animals, and dogs with lots of anxiety and dogs with really bad ear issues where if you pet their ears(like most people do) it puts them in a lot of pain. You should never pet someones dog without asking, you dont know if they are working or if you petting them somewhere will hurt or scare them.
Now I'm craving soup, pizza, grilled cheese and a French fry salad 🤤
Your rants about animals were spot on. We're taught from day one that other animals are here for us, so eff what they want. Makes me so angry. The big foot analogy was great. We have to look at a situation from the victim/helpless one's point of view.
We domesticated animals, they are here for us
Yes, we co-evolved with a few species of animals, and yes our ancestors purposely did this for food, travel, and protection.
HOWEVER:
1. All animals, including us, have a common ancestor, so no matter what, on a literal and scientific level, no other animals were "put on this earth" for us.
2. The actions of our (human) ancestors are not a valid reason to keep doing something. If you need examples, just think of the obvious ones, like slavery and the treatment of women. I'm not equating the situations, but as a comparison, I'm saying that people living in those times felt completely justified in their thoughts and actions towards those without power.
As a severe asthmatic, I always had to do the mile but I was lucky that as long as I finished they gave me an A. Other students had to make certain times. But I remember the last time I had to do the mile in HS (I don't believe it was the last time the class did), the teacher demanded I did the mile when he knew I was doing physical therapy for my knee and my asthma was acting up. I think I finished (he may have stopped me early) but I remember being so out of it that I just kept barely shuffling around the track. He had to run after me and physically stop me and sit me down. It also aggravated my knee and I ended up on crutches for a couple weeks. Dude thought he was going to get fired and kept apologizing to me. I later ended up getting out the physical portion of our tests for the rest of the year....although paper tests in gym class suck as well.
I've never understood teachers that push kids in gym. I am not a good swimmer, I can keep myself up but swimming was always a fear of mine. In HS we had swimming as part of our gym curriculum, and I had told my gym teacher that I couldn't swim well and wasn't comfortable diving head first into the pool. She made me do it anyway, in front of everyone. I hit my head, got really disoriented and inhaled a bunch of water. Fortunately I was able to pull myself out. I wish I would have said something to the principal or anyone for that matter. She should have been reprimanded for that.
My dad insists on getting a paper receipt for everything and it’s SO ANNOYING
Also, I think a lot of people don’t like cats or think they are “evil” because they treat cats like dogs. Cats aren’t dogs and they have different needs and boundaries.
Victoria Rachelle I wasn’t replying to anyone’s comment.
That's pretty insightful!
Cats are jerks
DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED on how these are my favorite podcasts. Love the rants. Relatable and hilarious!
I’d always been told that being ticklish is a defence mechanism, because all the places where you’re ticklish (neck, armpits, feet) are vulnerable spots where you’ve got large veins that are quite close to the surface, so it’s a dramatic advanced warning for any type of danger in those areas. Ya know?
I think when you're really seriously not enjoying it, you're also not laughing. Just imagine it in a horrid situation, with a total stranger doing it, you'd be definitely more pissed, angry, scared than anything. Especially if you can't get away. And when someone's tickling you whom you know well (and like) you'd know that this person is able to see and notice when you've clearly had enough. So there's trust involved that nothing bad will happen.
Also, I think people who "hate" tickling probably had only people around them who didn't know when to stop and then as a kid, you'll get scared because one, it doesn't stop, and two, you and your boundaries aren't being respected. When you tickle your friend you don't want him to get pissed or hurt, the goal is not to stress out or show severe domenance. Your words Jenna, "DO NO HARM!" ;)
Wow that’s terrifying I never knew that
woodyhoddy Have to disagree about the people who hate tickling thing. It's too general a statement. I have never found tickling of any kind enjoyable. It feels like a sensory overload and my brain just wants to make it stop. It's like when Julian said it was between pleasure and fight or flight, for me it is all fight or flight.
I'm sorry you feel that way. :(
I've translated Julien's barks. They're vile comments. He's a nasty boi.
wait why do we even write on paper? can we not find something to write on thats not coming from trees?
He is not the good boy lmao
drake bell came to my high school last year and it was so random, like he wasn’t speaking he was just having a concert during school 😂
oml haha
Same here dude he came to Austin Texas and performed at my hs he came again last year and my sis came to see him.
But when my school announced drake was performing I thought it would be drake the rapper not drake the actor lmao 😂
Lucky! That is random haha
wtf do you go to the same school as Zoey 101?
*"i did my research, but i still dont know what the hell is happening"* girl saaamme
About the mile; I would always run a 12 min mile, I always felt like I was going to pass out & my body would kill me. I wasn’t out of shape or lazy, I had multiple health issues I didn’t even know about. Turns out I have an autonomic dysfunction (I’ve had my whole life) & a tear in each hip ligament that I’ve had since I was 4. In conclusion THE MILE IS BULLSHIT.
I've lived with animals my whole life and my dad works with horses for a living, and the worst problems we've ever had with any of our pets or with his work have been caused by people who don't know what they're doing. When people mess up, especially around larger animals like horses, they blame the animal for reacting in a natural way to the person doing something stupid. That was the first thing I learned as a kid around horses, to read the animal and give them the respect they deserve. Honestly people drive me crazy sometimes, especially people who either have no sense when it comes to animals or those who think they know more about your pet than you do. Giving animals respect is the number one thing you should do whenever you come into contact with them.
Well its hard to literally visualize how many fans you all have. Even with 664k followers for the podcast, thats still a huge amount. Thats more people than are in my hometown, aurora il, the second largest city behind chicago. Like you guys are huge lol. Your channels are huge.
Alex Knapik holy cow! So weird to see someone so close by! Howdy neighbor. Just a few towns away.
I'm from the quad cities! Hi fellow illinoisian :p
Much love guys lol
Also @julien do a vlog where u make pad thai soup lol
jenna has more subs than my country has people
Jenna: "WHO made pizza a vegetable?"
Me: The American Public School system, that's who!
