FROM APPLES SUBLIMINAL BRAINWASHING TO ANTI-CLIMB PAINT: A Journey Through Randomness
We explore random thoughts and discoveries, from truck woes to technology tricks. The conversation leads to a discussion of the balance between ambition and personal well-being, tying in unusual facts and true crime stories.
• Truck repairs and their unexpected challenges
• Reflections on introversion and social energy
• The quirks of voice-to-text technology and subliminal messaging
• The shocking story of Boris Karloff's niece
• The surprising world of anti-climb paint
• Conclusion and reflections on life’s oddities
What's up? This is the Objective, jerk. And I'm said jerk, how's everybody doing? Hope everybody's doing. Well, I kind of got like a crazy different episode planned because I have a bunch of little things I want to talk about, something that kind of interested me, but it's like really small, not a lot of information on it. So it's like, so I'm fitting all this kind of together, so this isn't like a specific topic that uh, um, I'm uh discussing, I guess for this episode, although there is one that I want to, that's more in particular. But before I do that, I gotta talk about myself, talk about what's going on. You know how it is. I got to get my therapy in what is going on with me. Let's see, let's see, let's see. Now I'm still waiting for stuff.
Speaker 1:The truck I replaced the starter and I don't even think that was the problem. I mean, it's working now it's fixed and now my truck has a new starter. I don't have to worry about replacing the starter in it probably ever again, for the most I don't know at least another 15, 20 years or something. But yeah, so I did that. That's fun. I hate that man.
Speaker 1:I have this thing where I, if I don't accomplish the tasks I'm set to do. It really kind of bugs me and it irritates me. You know what I mean. Like I don't know what it is, but so I was under the impression that my starter needed to be replaced. So I went and did it. Everything went good, but then, you know, doesn't seem like that's the actual problem. So then I get kind of irritated. I spent all this time and money and then it just kind of puts me in a crappy mood. I don't know. I'm like I'm very. I'm still talking to somebody. What did I say? My, I don't know.
Speaker 1:My moods are very. I'm very, you know, because I'm introvert, so it's like, which basically means I'm selfish. It it seems like you know what I mean, because being an introvert the only time, like, I'll go and I will hang out with people and do things like that, but it's like the planets have to align, you know, and it's just kind of selfish in a way. But it's like it's, if I'm not in a good mood, then I'm like a shitty person to be around, and I don't want to be a shitty person to be around, and I don't want to be a shitty person to be around, so I just stay home and I don't, you know, um, you know, when I'm in my really shit mood, I'll just kind of I'll let my kids know like, hey, I'm not, I'm not, uh, doing all that great. So I'm just gonna be in my room and, you know, make sure they whatever this and that. But I just tell them to kind of avoid me, because I'm just an asshole right now.
Speaker 1:You know, it's very um, fleeting. You know, my I don't know, it's just kind of annoying, and so it's like my, when I get um in the mood, like when I'm really like ambitious and motivated, that is very it's fleeting. You know what I mean. So, and that's why, when I do get in my got to get stuff done, like I just I go full steam ahead like crazy and I'm just getting this done. Okay, now I'm going to do this, I'm going to do this, I, this, I'm gonna do this, try and get as much done, because it is fleeting and it won't last and it kind of sucks. I mean, he still, you know, gets stuff done when I'm not in that mood, but it's it's, it's, it's it's more, it's just difficult, you know, and I know I'm not the only person, but it's just it just kind of sucks like I wish. I wish I was just in that mode at all times and then they're. You know, there's people that are probably in that mode at all times and they probably get tired of being in that mode at all times like man. I wish I could just chill and not want to do stuff, you know, but anyway. So first thing I want to talk about or should I shave it last, because it's kind of it's a big deal, but it isn't I'll just do it now. Um, so I saw a video and I guess, um, what you might call, what's the guy's name? You know the InfoWars guy. I can never remember his name Gosh, that's annoying. What is his name? Alex Jones. There we go. I thought of it. Anyway, so one of his staff members or whatever was caught on to this and then I tried it and it works, it's true and all. I made a small video and I posted it on some stuff. So I'll probably I'll add that to this video.
Speaker 1:But basically, if you have an iPhone, if you do the voice to text, you know, you know you want to text, but you're doing something you can't text. So you just you click on the little microphone button and you say whatever, and it puts it on there and a lot of times it's you know crap. Like you can tell when somebody does a message, that's all text. You know what I mean? It just looks nothing, it's not, it's incoherent, basically Right, and then sometimes it'll. It'll put a word down first, but then it kind of AI, looks at everything around and fixes it.
Speaker 1:But if you get on your iPhone and you get on your voice to text and you say racist, it'll bring up Trump, capital T Trump, first for a split second and then fixes it to racist and then, if you keep trying to, it won't do it. But you have to, like turn it off and on every time. So you hit the little button for the microphone to do it, you do it and you say racist. It'll say Trump racist and then you turn it off, turn on, do it again. It'll do it. But if it's on and you keep doing it, it doesn't really do it. I mean it did it for me. It was like I was messing with it and it did Trump racist and then I said racist. It said you, and then you know again Trump racist and it's like dude.
Speaker 1:This is the kind of bullshit right here. You know, um, that's subliminal messaging. Um, that's subliminal messaging. You know, that's trying to get people to just and subliminal messaging. It doesn't work on everybody, but it it can affect people. Um, you know, when you see things that you don't, you don't realize, you're like, well, your brain sees it. But I mean, so that happens and some people may catch it, and some people did catch it. Um, but it's just kind of crazy now, do I? Honestly? So you know, I posted on the social stuff that I post my stuff on. I'm like, oh, apple, trump, subliminal messaging. You know, brainwashing america, this kind of stuff, do I believe that? No, I don't think they were trying to brainwash people. That was probably not a bonus, but I think it was more or less some uh, you know, software engineer, whatever they were doing to upgrade so far back who knows when an update, I mean. And um, I can hear me scratching the pier and, um, somebody did it more just to kind of be funny or just to like, stick it to trump, I'm gonna stick it to trump, you know? Um, that's probably most likely what it was.
Speaker 1:I don't think apple came together with the liberal retards and like we need to figure out a way to get people to think Trump is racist, you know. But it just kind of goes to show you how influential or detrimental are the companies and and apple and how influential everything is to people, you know, and it's insane. But I mean it's kind of it's it's coming back to bite them though, because this is going to be. I think this will be kind of a problem for for apple, they're gonna lose a little bit of sales from this, I think if, if it gets out there, if people hear about it nothing like bud light or anything like that but, um, you know, some people are gonna dismiss it.
Speaker 1:You know, I know my tds friends can be like, oh my gosh, this is stupid. But it's like dude, okay, again, I don't think they're trying to brainwash everybody. Maybe it's like to test something, maybe, maybe it's to try and whatever. But, like I said, I think it was just some software engineer thinking they're funny, trying to stick it to Trump. Probably happened a while ago, yeah, but it's definitely intentional, because there's no way you're going to say racist, and then the word Trump comes up every time. And Trump is no, the word is nowhere near the word racist. You know what I mean. So it's kind of like yeah, so there's, you know it was intentional. Was it actually as evil and diabolical, you know, as brainwashing the world? No, but still it is bullshit. It's just like man, I have a Mac and I have an Apple phone.
Speaker 1:That's my pocket computer. I don't use it as a phone, I use a Samsung. Let me make sure I'm recording. I didn't record a video. Yeah, okay, good, um, my podcast about James Bond. I didn't record the video. That's going to be my extra. If you want some extra instead of having, um, what is it called? When you pay money, content creators have little membership accounts and you can pay a little extra to get behind-the-scenes stuff or some extra whatever. That can be mine, but you don't have to pay for it.
Speaker 1:Just go to Buzzsprout and listen to the podcast or Applecast, wherever you have your podcast. So if you watch just my videos or listen to just my videos, there are some. I think there's like two or three. Well, there's more than that, really, because I started doing my podcast before I started recording the videos, but within like the last year, I think there's like two or three um podcasts that are just just that, just audio. So if you want to check those out. I don't know what they are, except for that James Bond one. But yeah, so no charge, just head on over there and listen to the podcast.
Speaker 1:The podcast is actually what I'm I like the most. Um, the video parts I just kind of do to kind of get people's eyes on it. You know what I mean. Um, not that you know. Oh my gosh, I'm I'm so influxed with memberships and downloads and this and that you know, I would say between so my primary, so I have a podcast, and then it's with Buzzsprout and it goes with Google. You know, pretty much any podcast platform you use you can find it. Um, apple cast, so I think, is the primary one that people listen to my podcast. Um, but so there's that. There's YouTube rumble and bitch shoot.
Speaker 1:I don't really do YouTube, just because YouTube is very picky with what you talk about and say and I'm not much for watching my mouth, I'm not very good at it. So I have podcasts that automatically upload to YouTube, but there's no video, it's just the audio with my little logo on it. And then I upload to Rumble and BitChute and between my podcasts and Rumble and BitChute I'd say I get 100 listens or downloads or whatever per episode, like averaged out. You know what I mean, which I don't know. Maybe some people that was pretty good, which I guess it's not bad, it's not good, it's, you know it's not.
Speaker 1:It's definitely not a way for me to make a living and you know, if I wanted to grow it, you know I could put a little money and do some whatever this map, but yeah, I just don't. That's not really my goal. I think I'd be more annoyed. I think about that sometimes like what if it actually got somewhat popular and I was just getting comments and emails and all this stuff like crazy? I don't think I would like it. Um, so I'm happy with the way it is right now. To be honest with you, I get a little interaction, some people make some comments or whatever, and I get a few trolls and it gives me something to do. That's basically point. So, anyway, um, why did man? I tangent right, went off the rails, so yeah. So the apple, oh, that's right. That's why the whole thing started was.
Speaker 1:So I have an imac and an apple phone and I'm used to apple now and it's like I kind of want to go back to like a pc and and everything. But it's like man I'm kind of so used to, I go back and forth. You know, I use um Apple programs that come with the Mac, you know the GarageBand and and um the iMovie to do my podcast, and I know there's something for on the PC and everything too. But it's just, I don't know, when you get older you just kind of get stuck in your ways and you don't really want to change it and it's not difficult, but it is kind of a pain in the ass when you switch phones, although, like I said, I'm using a Samsung, so I'm using both, so I'm kind of handy with the Samsung too. So this is like my phone. So when I leave the house I take this with me, but when I'm at home, if I, whatever, I use the Apple one mostly, you know. So that's whatever. This conversation is stimulating, okay, so that's that. So that's crazy Apple whatever.
Speaker 1:Like I said, I don't think it's them trying to change America's thoughts on Trump. I think it's just, you know, a group, an individual or a group of of, uh, software engineers that we're trying to be funny, I guess. Anyway, okay, on to the next subject, right? Okay, so I watch, you know, youtube videos on various things and I watch uh, lately I've been watching the grim life collective. I don't know if anybody watches that. It's a channel that goes to. I think they started off going to like grave sites and stuff, but so they you know people go to filming locations or the graves of people and this and that there's a few of them out there. But I like this one because just the attention to detail that they have with various things and I always seem to learn something about something that maybe I already knew, that I didn't know before. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:And even like stuff that I'm not really interested in too much, I'll still end up like oh, wow, I don't know, like it's, it's a pretty good and they're kind of hammy. You know the, the guy like he gets overly excited about the stuff which is fine. Like it's like, oh my gosh, he's kind of a dork, but you know, he in a way I think I'm envious that I don't have that. You know what I mean. Like the stuff is all interesting to me. Like the stuff is all interesting to me, like the stories of LA and Laurel Canyon in the 60s, and the doors and and the Whiskey A Go, go and just all that stuff is interesting to me and I like watching the videos on it, but I have no desire to go there and look at it myself. I just I don't want to go, I don't care to. I'd rather go, know, to japan or england and stuff like that, more so than anything in america, really. Um, and like new york, I don't, I've never been, don't care to go. I've been to california, I've been to san francisco, but I've never been to la, except for I drove there to go to the airport when I came here. But yeah, so it's just I don't know, but anyway.
Speaker 1:So Grim Life Collective they were talking about Boris Karloff, right, who is the actor who portrayed the first iteration of Frankenstein, and then I guess the mummy too, not the mummy too too, but the mummy also and um, so he's talking about some stuff showing like this house that he had and this and that, and you know, it's just okay, cool, whatever. And then usually I'll pull up Wikipedia or something to kind of just get a little more information and I'll be reading as I'm listening to him, sort of watching whatever, right. And then I saw this and I was like, oh, that's kind of insane and there's not a whole lot of information on it. But apparently, say, where's that person? Why? Yeah, apparently his Boris Karloff, which is funny because his actual name, because he's British or was British. He died in 1969.
Speaker 1:But his name was William Henry Pratt. So William Pratt. He changed his name to Boris Karloff because he just thought Pratt sounded bad, like Pratt Falls. Guess with you know, back then. It's funny, he's got chris pratt now, you know. But he changed it to boris karloff and it's like that's almost seems the opposite. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Like you had um, who's the death wish guy? Um, who's the Death Wish guy? Oh, come on. But usually actors that you grew up knowing, their actual birth name was completely different. It was, like, you know, russian, or it was some kind of Lithuanian name and they shortened it or they changed it. So, you know, it was more easy on the ears for American audiences, I guess. Oh, I almost had it. What's his name? That's kind of bugging me. I might have to pull it up.
Speaker 1:There's just an example, let's see. Um, I mean, there's a lot of them, but for some reason this is the one I'm thinking of death wish Charles Bronson. So Charles Bronson is not his birth name, it's like it's charles or something. Let me see, that's. You know, come on, stupid apple computer so slow. That's the thing too, though, is like mac, I need to stop. So his name is is Charles Dennis Bukinski, bukinski, bukinski or whatever. So usually that's kind of how it is.
Speaker 1:Then you got Charles Bronson, right, but so Boris Karloff sounds like his birth name, and then he would change his name. But it was just. He just did the opposite, which I found kind of funny and interesting. Anyway, that's not what I'm talking about. Kind of funny and interesting, anyway, that's not what I'm talking about. He had a niece, so his brother's Wait, hold on His brother's daughter. Well, that's what that would be if it was his niece, let me see.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so Boris Karloff was married a bunch of times, but in 1958, karloff's niece, yeah, diana Bromley was arrested and charged with murdering her two small children with a razor in Haslemere, england, then attempting to slash her own throat. Dang, did they not know about the wrist back then? I guess, dude, how are you going to slash your own throat? Oh man, did they not know about the wrist back then? I guess, dude, how are you going to slash her on the rope. Oh man, she was the daughter of Karloff's brother, sir John Thomas Pratt. So I was like I saw that and I was like what, that's crazy. So then let's see, I think it's the same. Let me see 44, bob Lee married Diana Prattiana pratt, daughter yeah, also a diplomat. So this was the husband, the niece, of actor boris karloff, whose real name was henry pratt, 58. She killed their two sons and attempted suicide. She was declared insane obvious reasons. He divorced her and later married someone else.
Speaker 1:Okay, so that's, there's not a whole lot of information on this. So I was trying to find. So I found this and I was like, oh man, this might be one of those little true crime stories I'll just I'll talk about on my episodes which are popular on I forget which one. So, like some some things I talk about, some of my podcasts are popular on the podcast, more so than you know rumble or bit shoot. And then something that's not popular in the podcast is really popular on rumble or bit shoot. You know what I mean. Like it's kind of strange but not really popular, but for me popular anyway. So I couldn't find enough information to put them to to have an entire episode on it. So that's why I did what I did. But here is a. This is like a clip, a newspaper clip from the time. I'll just read it. So karloff niece, insane killer. Look at them trying to sell stories or sell headlines back then I mean it's not wrong, I guess. But anyway, all anyway, all right.
Speaker 1:So in England, diana Marion Bromley, 39, niece of actor Boris Karloff, was declared insane at a hearing today on charges that she killed her two sons. The court ordered her held in a mental hospital. The two boys, martin 13, and Stephen 9, were killed when they came home from boarding school for the Christmas holidays last December 18th. Ah, it's messed up, dude Coming home for Christmas and you get murdered by your mom. Police said Ms Bromley first drugged her young sons and tried to asphyxiate them, failing in that she strangled Martin and then drowned Stephen. Well, so she didn't use a razor then. So again Wikipedia, I sound like she, like you know, slashed her throat that's what they made it seem like With a razor. She tried to use a razor on herself, Not that that makes this less, you know, grotesque and devastating, or anything, but anyway. So she killed her son, she cut her own throat, tried to drown herself in a lily pond and later was found wandering in the woods by her husband thomas, british consul in washington and now attached to the british cabinet secure secrete.
Speaker 1:What does that say? It's kind of hard to read. It's like a photocopy of the newspaper clipping. That kind of is very similar to um, that movie with leonardo dicaprio where he comes home and his wife killed their kids. I want this. Where they got the inspiration from?
Speaker 1:What was the movie? Something? Island, I want to say mimic island, but oh, what is it? Shining, shinning, what is it? Shimmering island, right, anyway, miss bromley, dark and attractive, dark like dark hair. Oh she, dark skin, what was it? Or is it because she's mentally dark? Is the former d Martin Pratt? Her father, sir John Pratt, is a British diplomat and a brother of the actor who dropped the family name for the stage name of Karloff, which again is weird, but that is crazy. So that's basically Shimmering Island.
Speaker 1:What is that movie? God Hold on, I'm going to look it up real quick. I know people that listen to my podcast are probably always like answering when I'm trying to think of something. They're like dude, it's this, you retard. Leonardo DiCaprio 74. Oh really, I didn't know he was. I thought he was. For some reason I was thinking he was younger than me or like my age. It's so crazy he's 50. It seemed like he was always trying to be older and now he's 50.
Speaker 1:Anyway, okay, let's see. Is it going to show it here? No, so I got gotta go to filmography. Has anybody ever played you know, there's that that game you can do? Um, I forget what they call it now, but it's the kevin bacon thing, like how you can connect every actor to kevin bacon. You know, like kevin bacon was in a movie with so-and-so and then so-and-so was in a movie with so-and-so and so-and-so, and then that, you know, or something like that.
Speaker 1:Right, I don't know I might be getting it wrong, to be honest with you, but so I do that with with Wikipedia, sometimes, like I'll play around and it's like, okay, I want to get from Leonardo DiCaprio to Michael J Fox or something Right. And so for me to get there, I have to click on links of films and actors. So you click on a movie and there's an actor there that actor was on this, and eventually that act, you know, that worked together with Michael J Fox or something. You know what I mean, which probably wouldn't be hard back to the future, you know. And then you could go uh, what's his face? Doc Brown, christopher Lloyd, and you know what I mean there's, it's, some of them are kind of easy, but, yeah, a shutter Island Island, what did I say? Shimmering Island? Yeah, so, shutter Island.
Speaker 1:So, for those that haven't watched that, it's pretty good. Um, but yeah, that was. That seems like that's kind of the. I don't know if that was the inspiration for, uh, the character and his wife. And, holy crap, I've been talking 27 minutes. Man, I thought I was trying to pad pad the episode by taking up time. Crap, crap. I'm not even doing my last topic, which won't take long. So, all right, so that's that for that. Now on to.
Speaker 1:I think I was watching the grim life collective, and it was. They were in england and they were showing fence and it had a sign that said warning, anti-climb paint and I was like what the hell is that? So I looked it up and I just I don't know. I guess I think it's it's over in Europe a lot, it's pretty popular. But anyway, for those that don't know, they have a paint that helps deter people from climbing things, which I don't know, I never heard of. So anti-climb paint, also known as also known as non-drying paint gosh.
Speaker 1:Anti-intruder paint anti-vandal grease is a class of paint consisting of a thick oily coating that is applied with a stiff brush towel or by hand using protective gloves. In appearance, it is similar to smooth gloss paint when applied, but it remains slippery for a minimum of three years, thereby hindering an intruder from gaining a foothold. So you know, like paint on, like light poles. You know how people will climb a light pole or whatever to try, and you know whatever so they put it on. You know the poles to keep people from climbing them and stuff. And plus, you know they don't want them to. You know access something I'm so good, all right.
Speaker 1:It is used to prevent climbing on objects such as lampposts, walls and fences. It owes its effectiveness to the fact that it is based on non-drying oil and keeps the surface greasy and slippery. As an additional advantage, it leaves its mark on the person touching it and hence makes it possible for intruders to be identified, caught red-handed, right? Is that where that came from? Maybe the paint used to be red back in the day, so if they were climbing something, they got the red paint on their hand, caught red-handed. Where did that start? Oh man, I'm going to have to look that up.
Speaker 1:Anti-climb paint is often used to deter burglars seeking to enter a building by climbing up to a higher entry point, such as a window or upper floor. Anti-climb paint continues to work in hot or cold weather conditions, adhering to the surface to which it is applied. It can be used on most building materials. It is particularly effective in preventing climbing walls, parapets, boundary fences, downpipes, lamp standards and roofs. The paint's outer surface may appear to be dry, but attempts to climb it will reveal the soft paint underneath. It has an effective lifetime of about three years, after which a fresh coat is usually recommended. It cannot be easily washed off and is resistant to removal by variety of chemicals.
Speaker 1:Maybe I'm just dumb, but I just. I've never heard of this. I've just never right, I don't know, I missed it somehow. So, to keep the general public from being affected by the pain, it is usually applied above a certain height on the object being painted. Typically is applied from the height of eight feet above the ground. It was created in the early 60s plus. There's like people put signs on it to warn people, so maybe they don't slip and fall. So if they do try and climb and they get hurt because of the paint they can't soothe they go. Well, there's a sign there. So you're stupid.
Speaker 1:All right, caught red-handed. I'm gonna look that up real quick. Um, this is gonna end up being a long dude here. I was worried like I wasn't to have an episode and now it's turning out to be my longest one. Alright, let's see. Caught red-handed. Alright, let's see. I think I've thought about this before. Oh, no, this is a show, come on. No, oh, you suck. Why'd I do that? Oh, here we go. Okay, let's see. I already had meaning origin phrase. Okay, let's do that. Paint the town. Okay, what is the meaning? The origin wait to be caught red-handed is to be caught in the act of committing a misdemeanor with the evidence there for all to see. But why the red-handed? Like what did that start? The red hand has how long is this thing? No, it's not too bad.
Speaker 1:The red hand has long been a heraldic and cultural symbol of the northern irish province of ulster. One of the many myths, as it's to to its origin, is the tale of how, in a boat race in which the first to touch the shore of ulster was to become the province's ruler, one contestant guaranteed his win by cutting off what? By cutting off his hand and throwing it to the shore ahead of his rivals. The potency of the symbol remains and is used in the Ulster flag and as recently as the 1970s. Why the fuck would he cut his hand? I don't get that. Touchstone was becoming the province ruler. One can say it guaranteed his win by cutting off his hand. So he cut his hand off and like threw it. Is that what he did? That's psycho.
Speaker 1:Alright, red-handed doesn't have a mythical origin, however. It is a straightforward allusion to having blood on one's hands. Okay, yeah, that kind of makes sense, I guess. Right, you know, you kill somebody, you're going to have blood on your hands, caught red-handed. How did that not? That's kind of obvious, I guess. Red-handed appears in print many blah, blah, blah, res 9. Vision is 1819. Way before the no-climb paint. Alright, yeah, that's kind of I don't know. People are probably like dude, you're an idiot Caught red-handed. Yeah, so like, if you just murder somebody you're going to have bloodstains on your hands. So that probably is where that came from. That makes sense, all right, anyway, that's it. This was a mess of an episode, but I had fun, so let me know what you think. Um, thanks for listening. Thanks for hanging out. Appreciate your time. Uh, if you want to make a comment, please do, or you can email me at the objective jerk at gmailcom. All right, again, thanks for hanging out. Uh, god bless, and I will see you guys next time. All right,
