The Gin & Juice Podcast | White House Brunch, Mel Pops the Trunk, and MomTok Breakdown

[@kaishagirtley511]

Just an observation, love the browns. Brown backdrop and brown tops. It really works visually. Love y'all!

[@misscates1019]

I’m in my big 4’s, I need punctuation. “Let’s eat, Grandma” and “Let’s eat Grandma” mean two different things because of punctuation.

[@nunyabusiness3516]

Having anxiety over proper punctuation and capital letters is a VERY first word problem, and I have no intention of fixing it😂😂😂😂😂 I have never heard of it.

[@elisa_michelle]

Listen, that’s my punctuation and imma stick beside him. 😅

[@AlexandryiaJae]

Watching yall learn about Grindr in real time is gold 😂😂😂

[@thehoneydeev]

I’ll definitely call out anyone that doesn’t use a capital letter for my name. I’m not an adjective, I’m a noun.😅. Thank you 😊.

[@cynthiarodgers3896]

I’m 57. I am a proponent for punctuation. Lastly, you girls are absolutely adorable!

[@brandi3466]

It's called proper communication and grammar! I will communicate this way for the rest of my days sorry, not sorry. (Period)

[@SuperChristy79]

I am gonna use my punctuation lol.

[@liteeyes1882]

Y'all have to watch all the episodes of Worst Ex Ever!!! Those people were crazy!!!

[@ShaeLaird]

If I send a text and forget the punctuation on accident, a whole cringe goes through my body. I will go back and edit the text. I will always use punctuation in a text. It’s proper English!!! 😊 These kids will not even know how to write a proper letter. 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@thechoosychosen]

The thought of not putting a period for a 1 sentence text gives me so much anxiety. And...now I feel old.

[@Wrappedinhisglory]

That is such big sibling energy. "Thank you for volunteering your time to help me". 🤦🏾‍♀️ wiat 😮what🤣 My older sisters do this to me all the time!

[@Chastidee]

So I guess we the last generation that learned punctuation and grammar, then..

[@lynngevity3724]

I enjoy how yall talk about crazy everyday issues! POP THE TRUNK….throw it out!!! As you can tell I enjoy using exclamation marks, please dont take offense 😂😂😂😂

[@yvondias5425]

POP THE TRUNK!! (I am yelling!) I have been having this same punctuation conversation. What is wrong with these children?!? (I’m being extra) I use all the punctuation, capitalization, spacing and grammar in my text. I’m in my big FOURS I’m not changing. Plus why am paying for you to go to school and not being able to communicate clearly???

[@kjwilliams100]

I have a Josiah too! I have had the same discussion about his name with him..I asked my other son about the punctuation thing and he had the same response as your Josiah. I was like, how are yall making a period the opp now?!

[@canihelpyou9067]

As a millennial…I agree with these kids 😂. I read tone in texts! Texts has its own grammar rules 😂😂😂. But I will not accept misspelled words! I will always spell out words 😂

[@marketamorris9432]

It’s in Illinois, too. I asked my students.

[@tcraigg4563]

In Jersey too.

[@abyrd9345]

Yeah Mel! Rise Up!

[@jermaineboyd6298]

Nah, these children these days just too sensitive for me lol.. Can there be tone in how some text, yes. Typically when you know the person and understand how they communicate when they’re happy, upset, or whatever the case. It’s a lil different when you don’t know the person. But punctuation is very important in written/typed communication. What are they being thought in school or are they getting this off the internet lol

[@ladykray4eva]

It's definitely the generation of No Child Left Behind😒

[@amethystrenae6978]

If I don't capitalize a name im likely being disrespectful

Agree on the period, it's tone and I don't use it often for a text sentence. I'm 34. It means get off my phone lol

[@stephmo7775]

Causing anxiety over a period is overkill thinking & just diabolical 😂😂😂😂. ….Also, taking punctuation advice a from people who can’t even write in cursive is just plain sad 😂😂😂

WHAAAAATTTT I do not understand the no punctuation situation! I had to start sending one question at a time because I noticed they would only answer the first question…EVERY TIME!! I would have to retext each question!!!!!!!

That would drive me crazy 😅

Day 130 and we are STILL on the prosecution. And we STILL have no concrete evidence!

[@sherondaness7505]

Texting is still WRITTEN communication. So for those of us who didn't get the text option until later in life, we don't treat it differently. Not formal vs imformal. Period. Lol

[@dreaforshort]

Lmao this is so good. I’m in the last batch of humans considered a millennial born in 96, and I actually love punctuation! It doesn’t even have to be fully proper but I like to see enough of it to have clarity. I’m kind of a hybrid or a bridge between the generations so I understand the concepts of gen Z. Those babies are so complex 😂 you either have to keep up or feel left behind with them lol. I’m at the age where I’ll pick up very few of their things and leave the rest. But I will add my frustration and confusion about the elder millennials and younger gen X 😂 when they leave that daunting “…” at the end of a text! My mama be like “Okay…” girrrl why are you doing that? Lol what more do you want from me with those dots. I’ll never get used to it 😂

[@Msdelicious30]

What does the necklace say?????

[@teresawalker7288]

I'm 51, and my kids have said the same thing. But, let me tell you, I will not send "text speak". I pride myself on using correct grammar, spelling and punctuation. Also, I don't shorten my kid's names either. I spent months researching names and meanings, so therefore I will address you by the name I gave you.😂

[@deborahterrell4679]

I read tone in text but i use correct punctuation

[@EE-iy9rq]

Did you sue that company ?

[@corkymarie1932]

My mom puts … after everything and it drives me insane

[@shelceyhampton5253]

I've gradually stopped using periods in text and when I do, its to be short with my husband if he annoyed me lol

[@kirahoward4498]

lol... punctuation is being hated on.

[@ladykray4eva]

We will not let these Soft ahh anxiety filled kids gaslight us into thinking we saying something different on a text. They so emotional. And take that period how you want to 😂😂😂 GenX was def the unemotional ones, but this new gen just did a full 180! 😮‍💨 Also the lean in with Mel and Pull back of Lis at the same revelation about Grindr is hilarious 🤣😂🤣

[@kateokereke7047]

The worst ex is crazy good . Watch all of them

[@gotrojans04]

I have known about this punctuation foolishness and I *REFUSE* to participate. I spell words out. I use commas - OXFORD commas. And I capitalize proper nouns. It’s bad enough that some people don’t mind being wrong. It’s worse that they cannot stand the be corrected when they’re wrong. BUT THE WORST is this pathological need for other people to participate in their ignorance. I refuse to participate. This is dumb 😒🤣

[@mrsrussell]

Outlast was good

[@breannawhite2838]

I understand the new generation having different texting rules, but how does Jo not understand how his parents communicate through text? The way I text my parents is different from how I text my husband or my friends. Texting is very informal for me, but it also depends on the situation & who I am texting that I will make it more formal.

[@amethystrenae6978]

You guys should sue that company. If not they'll continue ripping off ppl and not have care in doing their job😊

[@Carolina-zo9io]

I hate Lazy texting, Im going to use punctuation every time. Thats how your point gets lost in translation when communicating.

[@brangeeellis3083]

I agree 100%. Punctuation is important while texting cause u can't always tell the tone of the conversation and a simple comma, semicolon or exclamation will HELP you with understanding how to proceed....🤷🏽‍♀️

[@Carolina-zo9io]

@@brangeeellis3083 Facts!

[@bryansl0587]

I'm not making all those changes because someone wants to read tone where it isn't. Know who's texting you and adjust your mindset accordingly

I don't care what these kids say, I'm using punctuation. And if you're not using punctuation I'm confused and not reading your run on sentence, lol. A period at the end of one thought, okay. But if there's multiple sentences, I need a comma, semi-colon, period, something! Lol

[@mb9954]

This whole thing is wild! Did these kids not take English class in school? 😳 20:11

[@brangeeellis3083]

Not using proper grammer... Misspelling words... Too many run on sentences... And calling me "bruh/bro"... ...are ALL things that will get you cussed out if you are texting me on the regular 😅
