Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
He's step in the den with dangerous Day. Well, there
are people who love April Fool's Day pranks, and then
there's other people that don't. Your significant other, who's more
likely to shoot you death stairs than be a good sport.
People online talking about fun April Fool's pranks to do
one your significant other people at work. Of course, it

(00:20):
doesn't involve making him sad. Some of the highlights are
I once changed my wife's birthday on Facebook to April first.
She spent the day confused on why she was getting
all these happy birthday messages. Once painted my husband's bar
soap with clear nail polish. Let it drive, put it
back in the shower. No matter how hard he tried,
he couldn't get it to lather. I had a five
year old son pretend that he found a bug in

(00:41):
the house. He put it in a napkin. It was
a raisin. He excitedly ran up to my wife and said,
look the bug I found, mommy, and before she could
see it, he ate it right in front of her.
She freaked out. That's a pretty good one right there.
Switch my older brother's drawers once the order of them.
He was not amused. My son once filled my purse
with bra I had to remove him at a register

(01:02):
in order to get to my wallet. One guy says
I hid one hundred and forty four Easter eggs in
her home, spent two or three years, and there's still
a few unaccounted for. Simply set your significant others alarm
to a different sound. One guy says, I bought a
toilet brush identical to the one we have placed it
in the dishwasher. When she noticed, she freaked out a
little bit, and I reminded her I'd been washing it

(01:23):
like this for years without her complaining. We told a
coal worker there was vandalism in the parking lot and
it looks like his tires were slashed. When he got
to his car, we had taped photos of slash to
his tires. Well, that has been changed my autocorrect to
every time I put you, it would say y'all. And
I once switched an apple of my dad's lunch with
a fake one, so imagine when he bit into it.

(01:44):
I unscrewed the showerhead as a teenager, put beef bully
on cubes inside and laughed when my sister took a
shower of beef broth and if your significant other works
from home, get an image of their usual background and
video calls and give it to all other coworkers. You
can take a picture of it and they can change
their background so it all looks the same. Deeper in

(02:04):
the two. So what's your biggest waste of time? Meetings,
attempting to reason with an unreasonable person, mindless, mobile games,
social media. According to new survey, the average American spends
one hundred and thirty eight minutes worrying every day. Seems
like a long time two hours eighteen minutes, almost the
exact length of a lot of movies like Star Wars
The Force Awakens, But there's a lot of more motivational

(02:25):
quotes about worrying is a waste of time and energy,
but it doesn't stop people from obsessing over stuff. In fact,
ten percent of adults schedule a dedicated worry time in
their daily routine. About three percent of those forty five
and older intentionally make time for it. Why would they
do that? Maybe they think worrying will be productive or
dedicating times will reduce the amount of time you spend worrying.

(02:48):
Sixty two percent of gen z ers and millennials say
they're constantly feeling anxious, compared to thirty eight percent of
older folks. Many people find themselves worrying trying to fall asleep.
I do that, I wake up and then I think
about things at work. I worry about it. I can't
fall back to sleep. A ranking of the top things
people worry about include finances, family, things you need to do, health, work, politics,

(03:09):
and getting enough sleep. That one will keep me awake
all the time. I'm worried I'm not getting enough sleep.
Still awake, too minute Again for another episode of Deeper
in the Den with Dangerous daved right here.
