00:00Do you wash new clothes before wearing them?

00:02Does anybody not do that?

00:03I feel like I should, but I absolutely do not.

00:05That's disgusting.

00:06Underwear, yes.

00:08Everything else, no.

00:09Good lord, yes.

00:09Are there people who don't do that?

00:11Hey, Brandon.

00:12Hey, what's up?

00:13Do you wash new clothes before wearing them?

00:14I think it really depends on where you get the clothes from.

00:17If you get it from the thrift store, then you definitely need to wash it.

00:19But if it's from the mall, then who cares?

00:21You still go to the mall?

00:23No, come on, let's all.

00:23No.

00:24I like when they're, like, off-the-shelf, crisp, looking good.

00:27You have no idea where the clothes have been, who's touched them.

00:30I thrift a lot, so you have to wash thrifted clothes before.

00:33You don't know where those have been.

00:34Don't really buy new clothes ever.

00:37No.

00:37Unless it's something that touches my intimates.

00:40I'm not even a clean freak, but that really gets me.

00:43F*** no.

00:43I don't have time for that.
