Transcript
00:00If you were a turkey, would you be like stuff me, or would you be like dressing me?
00:03Mmm...stuff me.
00:05Hey!
00:11This I know. It is stuffing.
00:14Yes, not dressing.
00:15It is not dressing.
00:16I don't know. Stuffing sounds like a punishment.
00:18Hold it a minute!
00:19Dressing is for salad. Salad dressing.
00:22Stuffing is literally named after what it does.
00:26So, you cannot call it dressing.
00:28Two different things, man.
00:30It dresses up the turkey.
00:31I don't want to eat anything that's in the cavity of an animal.
00:34Like, gross.
00:38That is a tough question because the Hawaiian rolls?
00:42Life-changing.
00:43I like cornbread.
00:45I like Hawaiian sweet rolls.
00:47But here lately, my family favorite has been Sister Schubert's yeast rolls.
00:54Not Sister Schubert.
00:55I love bread.
00:57And the words of Oprah.
00:58So both.
01:01Give me cornbread.
01:02Give me roll.
01:03They both do different things.
01:04They both sop in different ways.
01:06I need that cornbread to have the corn curdles in it.
01:09Come on, somebody!
01:10If you don't have the corn curdles!
01:12That changes everything.
01:13Yes!
01:14So in Wakanda, it's sweet potato only.
01:21Pumpkins, those are done by Halloween.
01:22Like, what are we still doing?
01:23Exactly!
01:24What are we doing?
01:25Don't try and give me the Ryan pumpkin.
01:27As a recent vegetarian, I appreciate the virtues of pumpkin.
01:33Yeah, I don't know what to say about that.
01:36Okay, so sweet potato.
01:38It's like elevator music for dessert, really.
01:42I mean, I've just never had pumpkin pie in my life.
01:45It's not only an insult to my grandparents, it's an insult to my ancestors.
01:49I feel like sweet potato is African, right?
01:51It's a staple.
02:04No, this is pumpkin.
02:05This is pumpkin.
02:06That's what we're doing.
02:07Mm-mm.
02:08You need your black card to vote.
02:09I'm sorry.
02:10Mm-mm.
02:11It tastes like oppression.
02:12Wait, no!
02:14It ain't my...
02:15I was about to say!
02:17No, this is pumpkin.
02:18Taste it again.
02:19Have you ever seen a Jacqueline's in that color?
02:22Yeah, but there's something off about that, so it has to be pumpkin.
02:25I've never tasted that before.
02:26Pumpkin is like Earth's gift to people because you can use pumpkin for everything.
02:32I've never had a sweet potato latte.
02:34Have you ever had a sweet potato latte?
02:36But Starbucks, somebody call us.
02:39This is pumpkin?
02:40Yeah.
02:43You sure?
02:46Black card to vote.
02:48I'm a disgrace.
02:49That's my 7% European trying to pop through.
02:51You should get that checked out.
02:53It's a high percentage.
02:54It's a high percentage.
02:55It's a high percentage.
02:56It's a high percentage.
02:57It's a high percentage.
02:58I didn't think I was about to say something about it.
02:59It's about regular transfer.
03:00I'd just say anything about it.
03:01It's about 200.
03:02It's about 308 pence.
03:03The answer is to get that all in the queue.
03:04I've been making a riskier and a half a little stronger than a half a minute.
03:05It's a high percentage.
03:06It's about 30 minutes, and it's about 18.
03:07It's about 40 minutes!
03:08Bye!
03:09Yeah, I'm gonna make a break from it.
03:10It's about 25 pint of a day that I have to get an essay.
03:11I'm gonna make it for you.
03:12If you're like…
03:13I'm gonna make it.
03:14On my own time, I'm so happy.
