J: Hello, lovely people!
So, we have some exciting news for you:
We're moving house!
C: Yay! Ow, sorry. J: Sorry, bubby, sorry.
C: Just so excited. J: [Excitable noises]
J: Although, a lot of you are probably like, "Yes, Jessica we were aware of that; you have already told us,
this is old news."
The English house moving system is really weird,
so although we knew we were going to be moving into this house months and months ago,
nothing has happened!
C: Mmm. It takes like six months!
J: Just just a period of nothing
C: You look at a house, you like the house, you...
J: Offer on the house. C: ...put an offer on the house;
C: the offer is accepted, but you don't actually buy the house until like six months later
J: And that whole time, anything could go wrong.
C: Yeah, and that whole time someone could just be like, 'Actually, you know what? I've decided not to sell my house,'
or 'You know what? I've decided I don't want to buy a house.'
C: And it's like what? You've just wasted six months.
J: But we have a preliminary date, and that preliminary date is SOON!
C: Which is good, because it means the horrible things are less likely to happen. J: Good, very good.
J: Yes, also I'm scared. I'm afraid
C: I'd be more afraid of losing the house or losing our buyer.
J: Yes. C: And then having to start a whole six-month process again.
C: If someone said, 'You're moving next week,' I'd be like, 'Oh, good.' Wouldn't that be better?
J: Yeah, I mean, I'm going to LA in exactly a week's time C: I know, but...
C: People were saying to us yesterday you can always pay people to help pack all your stuff. J: That's true.
J: Though I hate paying for anything.
J: But I think I might have to do that.
C: Mine's more about like the stress of I wouldn't like--I'm a bit of a control freak;
I'm not sure I'd like people just to come into my house and like pack things up
because I'd be like 'I don't know where anything is.'
J: No, same.
C: I won't know what boxes I put things into. J: I think I'm also a terrible control freak when it comes to things,
J: because I just want them to be neat and placed properly in the box.
C: I think they do a better job than we probably do because they're professional.
J: You'd think that... C: And they have to make sure that nothing breaks.
J: Yeah, but maybe they just wrap things in loads of [both] bubble wrap
and then they just shove it in a box and then we take it and we're like, 'What even is this?!'
C: Yeah, I think they probably use up more boxes.
J: Whereas I'm very much 'I want to make boxes that we open at the other end' so they know what's in them.
Like things--everything from our house that I want to go into bedroom two
should go into a box that says "Bedroom 2."
C: Anyway, domestics.
C: Let's talk about something else!
J: So! We decided to make a video to test how annoying we each are,
doing the BuzzFeed quiz: 'How annoying are you?'
J: We're gonna find out!
This video was suggested by one of our channel members, Jessica D.
Hi, Jessica! Amazing name.
If you would like to become one of the Kellgren-Fozard Club, you get access to behind-the-scenes videos;
you get my little face after your name with a tiara or a crown depending on how long you've been a member.
C: Dog emojis. Tilly dancing. J: Yeah, you get dog emojis!
J: Right, are we ready to find out how potentially annoying we are? C: Mmhm.
J: So how we're gonna answer this question is for each other.
C: Yeah, like how annoying I find you.
C: The problem with quizzes: You know what it's quizzing you on.
Like the psychopath test. So, if you're a psychopath, you just answer it so that you don't get a psychopath result.
C: You know? All quizzes should be like you don't know what the outcome is meant to be.
J: Well, I think that's the aim of a quiz. I think just a badly written quiz gives away the answer.
C: No, the title of a quiz gives away what the quiz is for. J: Oh, I see.
C: This is like 'How annoying are you?' J: So, basically, BuzzFeed quiz should be titled 'Which bread are you?'
And then we'll answer it and it will be like 'highly annoying.'
C: Yeah, exactly. J: Pumpernickel.
C: ...OK. J: That's a bread. [Cymbals clash]
C: (Q1) "What is your normal speaking volume?"
(A1) "Pretty average; people rarely struggle to hear me, but no one tells me to be quiet, either."
(A2) "I'm constantly having to repeat myself because I speak so softly."
(A3) "Pretty normal unless I'm super excited and I get a little out of hand."
(A4) "I don't speak, I yell."
C: I think you'd say you're pretty normal, unless you're super excited and it gets a bit out of hand. Yeah.
C: (Q2) "Are you often late?"
(A1) "I'm always ten minutes early."
(A2) "Sometimes, but I do my best and try not to be later than ten minutes."
(A3) "I don't think I've ever been on time."
C: Or (A4) "Sometimes I don't even show up."
C: I think, "Sometimes, but I do my best..." J: I try my hardest!
C: Yeah, I'd say sometimes you're late, but you try your best not to be later than ten minutes.
J: It's always with the best intentions.
C: (Q3) "What do you do when someone gives you a compliment?"
(A1) "Immediately deny it and tell them how deeply, deeply wrong they are."
(A2) "I'm too shocked to respond."
(A3) "Smile and say, thank you."
(A4) "Compliment them back."
C: I think you'd smile and say thank you.
J: OK. I do often do a compliment, though.
On the street when people are like, "Oh, my God, I love your dress!"
And I'm like, "Thank you! Love your hair."
C: Yeah, but not always. J: Well, sometimes if it's like an old man, I don't know what to say.
C: Yeah, I'd just say you smile and say thank you.
C: (Q4) "How fidgety are you?"
(A1) "I literally do not stop moving."
(A2) "Only when I have been sitting or standing still for an exceptionally long time."
(A3) "Fairly average."
(A4) "I am a picture of serenity."
C: I would say you're a picture of serenity. J: I don't really fidget.
C: No, you don't fidget.
C: (Q5) "Which of these sounds most like you when we're watching a film?"
(A1) "Entirely engrossed, not paying attention to the rest of the world."
(A2) "I tend to have a lot of questions."
(A3) "If I'm among friends and not in a theatre, I'll make jokes throughout."
(A4) "I can't stop eating popcorn."
C: You're entirely engrossed. J: Yes! All of the other options are terrible!
J: No, you should be concentrating on this amazing film that so many people have put their artistic work into.
C: To be fair, when we went to see the Marvel film,
that was quite annoying for me,
because, yes, you were entirely engrossed,
but that does not always suggest that you are not being irritating throughout the movie.
C: Because...
she just kept going [emotes] and grabbing my arm, and then literally like squeezing it!
J: It was 'Endgame!' Come on!
C: And I was like, 'I can't think, you're hurting me!'
C: And then she'd be like [mimics excitement] and I'd be like, 'Lady!'
J: I have so many feelings!
C: (Q6) "You're on the toilet and finished the loo roll. What do you do?"
(A1) "Leave it there and carry on with my life."
(A2) "Get a new roll out, but put it on top of the empty one instead of replacing it on the hanger."
(A3) "Replace the loo roll, but not put the old roll in the bin."
(A4) "Replace the roll and recycle the old one."
C: Er, you replace it and recycle it.
C: But when I say "recycle..." J: To be fair, "recycle" -
J: we don't, we give it to the dogs.
J: It's their favourite plaything.
C: Yeah. J: And then Walter eats it.
C: Tilly's like 'Yeah, let's play, baba!'
C: 'Let's like throw it around and play chase!'
C: And then Walter's like, 'Yeah, let's do that for like 10 seconds' then he's like 'END OF GAME!' [Mimics excited munching]
C: (Q7) "What do people most often say about your walk?"
(A1) "They say I stomp and they can always hear me coming."
(A2) "Nothing. I don't think there's anything particularly unusual about my walk."
(A3) "They say I walk too quietly and can never hear me coming."
(A4) "They say it's very brisk."
C: "Quiet." I think you're quite quiet, actually.
C: You pad along. J: I'm quite light on my feet.
C: Yeah, you are.
C: (Q8) "You're at a traffic light that has just turned green, but the car in front of you hasn't immediately moved. What do you do?"
C: I mean, you don't drive, but we'll pretend.
(A2) "Honk, hooooonk, then tell them to move their fat arse; some people have places to be."
(A3) "Wait. I'm sure they'll start driving soon."
(A4) "Try and change into another lane."
J: You don't know what they're doing.
C: It says it's just turned green and the car in front of you hasn't immediately moved. I'd say you'd say wait.
J: Yes, like a reasonable human.
C: No, I would honk.
J: Course you would! C: Because it's like--because I'm not being rude!
C: I'm not being rude! I'm just-- J: You're just helping them.
C: Well, they're obviously looking at their phone. J: They may have not noticed.
C: I get honked. If I'm like, you know...
at the green light and I'm looking at my phone and then someone honks me, I would be like...
J: Not that you ever look at your phone whilst driving.
C: I'm not driving, it's stationary!
C: (Q9) "The waiter gets your order wrong, what do you do?"
(A1) "Eat it anyway; pretend it's what you wanted all along."
(A2) "Eat it, but don't leave a tip and leave a bad online review."
(A3) "Politely ask to have it corrected."
(A4) "Ask to see the manager, demand compensation or a refund. It's their bloody job."
J: Politely ask to have it corrected. C: Yes.
J: Jesus.
C: (Q10) "You're in a meeting and your colleague mispronounces a word several times in a presentation. What do you do?"
(A1) "Immediately correct them."
(A2) "Ignore it."
(A3) "Don't say anything during the meeting, but let them know afterwards."
(A4) "Snigger."
J: Wait. With Clara,
I do correct her English,
but that's to help her.
C: I think you immediately correct them, but I think that's also because you're...
lip-reading and deaf.
C: Like, if someone says something wrong, you don't know what they're saying.
C: So then you kind of work it out-- J: I tend to repeat words.
C: And then if it's a word that's obviously wrong, you'd be like... J: 'Pineapple?'
C: Yeah, and they'd be like 'duh duh duh' and you're like, 'Ooooh, you mean dah dah, dah.'
C: And then they'd be like, 'Ah, yeah.' So I don't think it comes across rude when you do it.
J: OK. C; But like obviously if I did it...
J: Oh, OK. I get you. C: I'd be like, 'That's not how you say it.'
J: Yeah.
J: I'm just checking I got it right. C: I mean, to be honest, I'm the one who always mispronounces words anyway.
C: Aren't I? J: But I love it.
C: Like "tubberware." J: You're so cute, though!
C: (Q11) "How long does it take you to reply to a text?"
C: Depends who it's from.
C: (A1) "Immediately."
(A2) "Within the hour."
(A3) "Immediately in a flurry of multiple texts."
(A4) "Whenever I can remember."
J: Whenever I remember!
C: I get a bit annoyed if you don't. My 'Helloooo?!'
J: Yeah, you'll send me twenty texts and then I'm like, 'I was in the bath.'
C: Yeah, well, I worry, because if you're used to like always having you respond
immediately and then you don't, I'm like, 'What's happened?'
J: Yeah, to be fair, part of the reason I respond to you immediately is for safety. C: Yeah.
J: To let you know I'm still alive.
J: Choose an emoji! C: Aww, they've come up as question marks!
J: Question mark, question mark, question mark.
J: Oh, I don't think BuzzFeed thought that one through.
C: Shall we go for the smiley face one? J: I'm gonna say smiley face, because...
C: Aww! J: Oooh!
C: You're 36% annoying.
C: I'd say that's about right.
J: "You are only occasionally slightly annoying, but, hey, who isn't?"
J: 36%! I will take that.
C: I think you're like--yeah, I think that's kind of true, you're only occasionally slightly annoying
C: but most of the time not. J: OK.
C: Yeah. J: Cool.
C: I'm definitely more annoying than you are.
C: Right.
J: Q1: "What is your normal speaking volume?"
J: People really listen when you talk. I'm gonna say pretty average.
C: That's funny that you say people seem to listen when you talk.
J: Yes, if we're in a group situation
Claudia's not the loudest, but people stop talking to listen to Claudia.
C: Mmm.
C: Because I always have something to say that's worth listening to.
C: That's what my English teacher said at school. J: An extra 10% annoying right there.
J: Q2: "Are you often late?" (A4) "Sometimes I don't even show up."
C: Yeah... I will always show up... J: You do show up!
J: You show up!
J: Not when requested. C: I think occasionally I have been like...
C: 'Yeah, I'm coming...'
'Oh, no, I'm running late...' 'Oh...' And then I'm like, 'I'm not coming.'
J: Because it gets so late, you're like, 'Oh, wait, the party's over.'
C: Yeah. So, yeah, I guess that counts as not showing up. But I wouldn't just not show up, I'd tell someone.
C: So that doesn't count. J: It was your intention to show up.
C: Yeah. J: Sure.
C: When we first started dating, we went to one of my friend's dinner parties and we were early
and they were like, 'Wow, Jessica, you're such a good effect on her.'
C: We got there an hour earlier because they'd told me it started at six,
rather than at seven.
J: Yeah, just so you'd show up!
C: Because, normally, if they told me it started at six, I would arrive at seven.
So we got there at six and they were like, 'You're actually here really early.'
J: So bad.
C: Yeah! J: They were so impressed.
C: But now you're just late with me.
J: Mainly because you drive me places!
J: I have no say.
J: Right. (Q3) "What do you do when someone gives you a compliment?"
J: (A2) "I'm too shocked to respond."
J: No, you have a high self-esteem.
J: (A3) "Smile and say, thank you." (A4) "Compliment them back."
J: Smile and say thank you. C: Smile and say thank you.
J: Yeah.
C: But I'm too shy to come up with a compliment sometimes, and because I'm already a bit shy that they've just complimented me,
it's easier just to say, 'Oh, thank you.'
J: 'Thanks, bye.' C: Rather than, like, 'Oh, thanks, your hair looks so nice!'
C: Yeah, you're a bit more like that, to be fair.
J: (Q4) "How fidgety are you?"
(A1) "I literally do not stop moving!"
J: Tick. C: Yes, that's me.
J: (Q5) "Which of these sounds most like you when watching a film?"
(A2) "I tend to have a lot of questions."
J: Questions. C: I'm probably a mixture of, "I can't stop eating popcorn"
C: and "I have a lot of questions."
C: In the cinema-- J: She asks the questions around the popcorn.
C: In the cinema, I don't ask questions.
J: You just eat popcorn. C: But at home, I would.
C: Because I don't wanna annoy other people, but I don't mind annoying you.
J: Yeah, yeah. C: And I'm not doing it to annoy you, I'm literally just wanting to know the answers.
J: 'Wait, who's that?' 'How's that?' 'Who's related to who?'
J: 'Did they get married?' 'What happened?!' C: You know why?
C: It's because in the cinema, I am paying attention, but at home I'm like not paying full attention.
C: So then I miss a bit and then I'm like, 'What? What's happened?'
And you're like, 'Well, if you were watching it...'
J: (Q6) "You're on the toilet and finished the loo roll."
J: "What do you do?" C: I know. When I read this one out to you, I was like, 'Mmm...'
J: [Annoyed] "Leave it there and carry on with my life."
J: That is you.
C: No! I sometimes get a new one out
and I just leave the old one there, don't I? I don't always give it to the dog.
J: How many times have I sat on the toilet and gone, 'Oh, great, it's just the roll'?
C: But you know what? At work... J: Yeah.
C: I always replace it and I put it back on--and I put it into the dispenser, and I get rid of the roll.
C: But at home...
I don't know, it's weird. I have different standards.
J: Well, in the new house--in the new house, to combat this behaviour,
we're going to have the extra loo rolls in a place that is reachable from the loo.
J: (Q7) "What do people most often say about your walk?"
J: I'd say nothing.
C: Yeah, it's like-- J: It's just a normal like stomp stomp.
J: (Q8) "You're at a traffic light that has just turned green,
but the car in front of you hasn't immediately moved. What do you do?"
J: Honk.
C: I mean, when it says "immediate," to be honest, I would wait a little bit
C: and then I'd honk. J: A nanosecond.
J: (Q9) "The waiter gets your order wrong, what do you do?"
J: Oh, I know this one.
She's so British.
J: (A1) "Eat it anyway; pretend it's what you wanted all along."
C: If they were like, 'What would you like?' 'I want my steak medium-rare,' and it comes and it's like really well done...
I'll just be like...
'Oh, that's not really how I wanted it.'
C: And I'll just be like, 'Look, it's like leather, Jessie. Look, it's like leather; I might as well have not have ordered this.'
'Oh, my God, it's like the worst steak I've ever eaten,' but I just eat the whole thing anyway.
J: And my entire meal is just...
complaints.
C: And then they come round, 'Everything all right?' 'Yeah--'
J: 'Fine! Everything's fine! Here's your tip!'
J: 'Bye!'
J: It's like, um...just--just tell them.
J: Anyway. C: No, I am getting a little bit better at that.
C: But, to be honest, I need to have had a glass of wine or a beer or something to feel a little bit more...
at ease to say, 'Sorry, this isn't right.'
I just feel like I don't want to make fuss.
J: So British. C: I know. Even though I'm paying for it.
J: (Q10) "You're in a meeting and your colleague mispronounces a word several times in a presentation. What do you do?"
C: I wouldn't immediately correct them.
C: If it was like lots of other people around. I think in like a work meeting...
To be honest, I'd probably ignore it because I'd expect someone else to step in and correct them
because there's some other more...
C: opinionated, confident people in the meeting. J: Sure, sure. Sure, sure.
J: (Q11:) "How long does it take for you to reply to a text?"
C: I always-- J: I mean, to me, immediately in a flurry of multiple texts.
C: No... J: To someone else...
C: To everyone else, it's just immediately.
J: Right, choose an emoji: Question mark, question mark, question mark, smiley face.
C: I like the second question mark.
J: Sure.
J: Ah, you are 59% annoying! C: Yeah.
J: "You can be pretty annoying."
"That's all right, though. You probably make up for it with many excellent qualities."
C: Yeah, that's true. J: You do!
J: Aww, I love you.
J: I don't--aw, you're so cute.
When we first started dating, Claudia told me that there are three really annoying things about her:
C: I did. J: That she leaves her hair everywhere.
J: That she fluffs her pillows... C: That sounds weird.
C: I mean, my hair from my head like...comes out of my head.
J: Yeah, yeah.
C: I don't, like, leave other random bits of body hair. J: It's just everywhere.
J: What's the third one? C: I can't function without a cup of tea.
C: In the morning. J: Oh, yeah, can't function without a cup of tea in the morning.
C: I was like, "Don't talk to me until I've had a cup of tea."
C: "Or make me my cup of tea."
J: To be honest, though, I don't find any of those annoying.
C: To be honest-- J: Love! It's a really weird thing.
C: To be honest, there are more annoying things about me, probably.
C: There's that thing I do that you really find annoying.
C: When I've got like a cold... J: Oh, God!
C: When I've got a tickly throat and a blocked nose... J: Kills me.
C: You know when it's not quite enough to like blow your nose?
Because it's not in your nose, it's like at the back of your throat.
C: So then I do that, like, inward...
snort thing.
C: Which, yeah, is--which I don't think--I mean, it's not very nice.
I mean, to be fair, that's another sort of like toilet roll situation where I wouldn't do it at work or in public,
but in front of you, I'm like, 'Yeah.'
J: I don't know, it's partly that the noise just catches my hearing aids.
I don't know.
J: My hearing aids don't register all noises, but that one they really do!
C: Oh, no, the other thing you told me as well. J: Yeah?
C: This is making me sound like a disgusting human being right now.
C: But you said don't burp.
C: You said, "You can do a burp if it's a normal burp, but don't say 'burp' when you burp."
C: And I didn't even realise I was doing it.
J: She literally--if you watch her when she burps, she goes, "Buuurp."
J: Why--why do you need it? Why? C: Yeah, but when I sneeze, I say "achoo."
J: You do!
C: Or I go, "Itchy!"
C: 'Cause I'm actually a programmed robot.
J: What are my annoying things?
[Crickets chirp]
J: OK, well we'll just end the video there, then.
C: One of your annoying things is that you can get excessively loud.
J: Yeah. I know.
J: Editing the sound on the videos we do together is so hard,
because my volume is up here and your volume is here.
Sometimes, yeah, and also, like, when we're out socially, I used to get more annoyed about it, but I kind of--I think I can manage now.
C: But sometimes I'll be telling a story
and then you just like butt in and finish the story, but in a way more, like,
elaborate, louder way and then everyone finds your story hilarious, and I was like...
'I was telling that story'
C: But now I just--either just let it--I just let it go
C: and I'm like, 'Yeah, OK, fair enough.' J: You told me not to do that, so I don't do that.
C: Yeah. Oh, OK, maybe that's why I haven't realised it's not--it doesn't annoy me any more because you don't do it any more!
J: I don't do it any more. C: Yeah, it really used to annoy me.
J: [Loving noises]
C: Like when my friend thought it was absolutely hilarious that you said
"I find you the most interesting person I've ever met," she just could not stop--
C: She could not contain her laughter. J: She went into hysterics!
C: She was just like, "What?! Have you heard Claudia's stories?"
J: So, we're gonna put the link to this quiz down in the description below.
Have a go. Tell me what percentage of annoying you are.
C: I'm... 23% more annoying than you.
C: That's quite a lot.
J: But I love you! C: Aww, I love you.
J: Thank you so much for watching.
Please subscribe if you are new and share this video with your friends,
who may also want to discuss how annoying you are.
C: [Falsely upbeat] 'Let's do this fun quiz. Yeah, yeah? Be really interesting.' [Angrier tone] 'Jessie, you're 85% annoying!'
C: Tilly's like, 'Let me go. You're annoying me.'
C: OK. J: Bye! Mwah!
