Running Up the Tab! | Are You Garbage Comedy Podcast w/ Kevin Ryan & H. Foley

H. Foley confesses to still having his white Christmas lights on his house in mid-February, justifying it as 'curb appeal' due to a broken timer for his regular outdoor lights. Kevin Ryan firmly labels this as 'trashy,' noting that no one else in the neighborhood has lights up.

H. Foley states his Christmas lights are 'still on the house and still on a timer that turn on every night' in February, and Kevin Ryan responds, 'Is anybody else in the neighborhood? No, it's bad.'

The hosts discuss whether it's 'garbage' to take advantage of a friend's open bar tab after they've left drunk. Both agree it's 100% acceptable among friends, viewing it as a duty or a fair trade-off if the friend caused a scene or needed assistance.

Responding to a listener question about taking advantage of an open tab, H. Foley states, '100%. A friend. Yeah. If you have that relationship with them.' Kevin Ryan recounts an experience where he had to retrieve a friend from the Borgata, feeling entitled to use his card for the rest of the night.

The hosts acknowledge the common 'dirtbag' practice of using household items like scissors as screwdrivers or knives. They detail the specific techniques and situations where these improvised tools come in handy, such as using a butter knife for a flathead screw or a bobby pin for a bathroom door lock.

When asked about using scissors as a knife or screwdriver, Kevin Ryan exclaims, 'F*** yeah, dude.' H. Foley adds, 'I was more of a butter knife guy when it came to a screwdriver.' They also mention using a Q-tip or bobby pin for bathroom door locks.

The hosts discuss the 'classy or trashy' nature of curbside store pickup. H. Foley expresses disdain, arguing that it contributes to a societal decline by removing the 'barrier to entry' for certain foods and services. He believes able-bodied people should go inside, reserving the service for those with legitimate needs like single parents, pregnant individuals, or those with mobility issues.

H. Foley states, 'that to me was the a little bit of the start of the decline of... more of society a bit in the sense of like you're eating that s***ty food. Go to Burger King. We have establishments, fast food establishments for this.' He then lists specific groups who should use it.
