What's the weirdest girl dinner and why did it happen? Let's talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. If you haven't heard of girl dinner, where have you been? Eating boy kibble? If you're not in the know like we are, girl dinner is a phrase that's gotten a lot of buzz, and it's basically just meant to describe a casual snack-based meal, or a meal you didn't put a ton of effort into. Okay. Maybe some girls do this a lot. I'm just a dumb guy, I don't know. Me too, but the subreddit Girl Dinner Diaries took it a step further and gave us deeper insights into the minds of these girl dinner home chefs. And to help us out today, we've enlisted the help of one of the girls who knows us best, Jenna. Hello, Jenna. Hello. Hello. Yes, I'm a girl. I know you best. Mm-hmm. Uh, but do you know girl dinners and why we have them? I don't, I don't think I do. Uh, but I am prepared to be tested. I think I understand the concept. If it involves filling in blanks. Comfort food, right? I mean, it's ki- something happened and you wanna make a little dinner, maybe to celebrate, maybe to comfort yourself. Using food as an emotional regulation tool is something I'm very well acquainted with. Okay? Yes, yes. You're, you're- You go, girl ... uh, in the, you're in the ballpark, for sure. Yeah. And, and you all know the game. We've, uh, censored certain words from the post title. It's your job to guess what those words are. Mm-hmm. We've also got recreations of the dinners for you to taste and really get into the mind of each girl. Mm. Does that sound good? Yes. Mm-hmm. Perfect. Let's take a look at the first one. Okay. My twin brother blank blank my blank, period, charcuterie, period. The charcuterie is the answer- Mm-hmm ... to this particular situation. To lots of problems. And of course, we do have- Ooh, it's beautiful ... a vers'. Thank you for putting it in front of me ... of charcuterie. And even, uh, the extra plate- ... like she made. I love a meat flower. In f- fact, for me- Look at that meat flower ... I think this is the year of the meat flower for me. I n- I- People talk about the year of the dragon and those other things. I never thought of it as a meat flower. I know that's what it is, but I didn't even see that until you said it, and, um- Hold on ... I, I don't love the term You haven't partaken of a meat flower? I have, but I didn't realize that it was a flower. Please stop calling it that. Oh. Mm. I'm only eating the meat flower, I'm sorry. I like that it's encrusted with pepper. I love charcuterie- An olive. Hmm ... because there's, like, little nuts you can pick, and it does cheer you up. So I'm thinking that something bad happened with the twin brother, blank blank my blank. Mm-hmm. Okay. Little pickle. What could happen, what could happen with your twin brother? Well, I can think of something relatively tragic. You're going tragic? I'm going negative. Oh, I'm definitely going negative. I think this would be particularly tragic if your, if it happened to your twin brother. Reminder, I have a twin brother. I, yeah, I know, and I think that- Yeah, and I think that you might go in the direction of- This may, this may influence your... Wow, you're a girl, you have a twin brother. Okay, how about this? I bet you've eaten a meat flower. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. Okay, I didn't expect such an enthusiastic response. Oh, yeah. But- Oh, yeah ... okay. Well, yes. All right. All right, I'm ready. Uh, my twin brother totally forgot my birthday. I mean, that- That- That would suck. That hits, that hits home, dude That would suck. Because... Yeah, and I don't have to, I don't have to tell you why. Yeah, right, you get it. You get it, Jenna. I get it. I get it. And, and me, I bet you it's happened. I ha- Well, ha- has it happened, Jenna? Have a grape. To you? No, it w- uh, he remembers. All right. I, I tried to go with more of a situational challenge. Okay. My twin brother streaked at my job. Hmm. 'Cause I mean, maybe from the waist down- Okay ... you look the same. No? Maybe from the- Well, if it's a... I mean, I think so. Yeah. I think if, if they're both, uh, men, yeah, I mean, I think so. Yeah, maybe. Yeah, twins up here, twins down there kind of thing. Yeah. I don't know. All right, let's see what it really was. My twin brother slept with my girlfriend. Oh, my... Okay, now that's something that probably does happen a lot, you know? Because... Dude. And then does she know? That's the question. Does she know? It's a girl. Presumably. This is a Girl Dinner Diary. So then, if we assume it's a girl, then um, yeah, the, she's also finding out that her girlfriend is bi. So that's a double whammy of information. But out of... You know, in defense of the girlfriend, if this was a situation where it's just like, "Oh, there's, like, another version of you I want to experience. Like, a slightly... It's like a d- not just another you, but it's just like- ... it's the man version of you." "I'm only doing it because I like you so much." It's not as bad then, right, Jenna? Uh, I think it's still bad. I think it's still- All right. I mean, at least it's not identical twin. I don't know. Let's see the next one. Wait, I haven't told you who I'm giving points to. Yeah, right. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Geez. This is a game. Link, the entire game. This is the game. I'm sorry. I- I forgot we were competing. I was gonna give you the point, and now I don't know if I want to. I think you should give Link the point. I'm not even trying to win. That should- I think you should give Link the point because streaking requires getting naked. They s- you know- Yes ... when they slept with each other- I- one of them probably got naked ... you saw my train of thought. Yeah. Either way, it, it's an image you don't wanna have of your twin brother. Right. I don't have a twin brother. That you know of. All right. Should I say let's see the next one? Let's see the next one. I found out I was blank blank. So she went to In-N-Out. Ooh, got some animal style fries. Oh, yeah, that means we get the animal style fries. Burger. Oh, and the little, the little peppers that you can get on the side. Mm. I found out I was blank blank. I was blank blank. Wow, we got a sh- Animal style fries is- We gotta share this girl there, Link ... is such a great pick me up. It's like- Hold on. Where's the- ... you know, when you just need something. You just need a little boost ... is there anything on this thing? Oh, it's hiding. It's hiding. I thought it was just a vegetarian burger, and I was about to be a little bit disappointed. Okay. Yes, I always fork these daddies. I mean, a bite of a In-N-Out burger in the morning, mm-hmm. Note for details about the post, the lemonade is not in the picture of the post, but it was mentioned that the lemonade was there, so. Huh. Thank you for that added detail. For anyone wondering why you have a beverage. This makes me feel better. Now, I don't think that I found out I was blank blank. It's probably not a diagnosis like I'm allergic to potatoes or- I doubt it. I'll use animal style fries as a reward. Definitely. Oh, God. Definitely. Definitely. I feel like at this point in my life with the stuff that we eat on this show, I have to be super intentional about anything that I eat outside of the show. And so I have to come up with a reason, and it can't just be I'm hungry. 'Cause I'm hungry all the time. If that's the reason, I would eat nothing but animal style fries. So this could be celebratory. But- Like you said, a reward. Yeah. Hm. But it, it could also be, "Hey, listen, I'm having a bad time." It could go either way. I mean, I go there when I'm rewarding myself, too. I think I got this one. I went negative. I just couldn't help myself. Yeah, me too. And this, this hits hard. Okay. Let's see. 'Cause when you find this out, y- you've gotta ... M- I mean, you throw caution to the dietary wind. All right. I found out I was constantly annoying. Ooh. I mean- Ooh ... when that happens- How did he find that out? ... it hurts, boy. It hurts. Okay. I went with kind of a more of a diagnosis. I found out I was left-handed. Um, this is something that can happen late in life with a lot of people. Yeah, p- you're resistant to it. You know, they're like, "I've al- you know, I always sus- suspected I was, and the doctor finally told me that I am." And it will mean that you will die earlier because of it, but you're also more likely to get cast. I'm also left-handed. Y'all stop doing things to me. See? See how we cast you to do this? Yeah. Yeah, we had a friend who's like, "You know, if you start to look at what pe- out- what people do in movies and stuff, you'll see they're all left-handed." There's a way higher percentage of left-handed people in entertainment than the regular population. Hmm. All right, Jenna. What's the answer? I found out I was having triplets. Yeah, okay. Woo, that is a... I mean, which is worse, constantly annoying or having triplets? They're both- Or left-handed. It's, it's tough to say. Presumably, when you're having three babies, the chances of one of them being left-handed goes up. And constantly annoying. Ah. But one's a medical term. I mean, triplets, all they do is annoy you. You could have more than one that's constantly annoying. One is a biological diagnosis, having triplets, being left-handed. The other is just a conceptual perception thing. I do agree, and also if I found out I was left-handed late in life, this would be what I would order. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So I'm gonna give the point to Rhett. Yes. Okay. And I will take it. Let's see another one. Got a blank in a blank dash blank industry. Ooh, and there's these emojis, which... Do we have to guess what's under that, too? Uh, I would not. We, we had to censor a few things from this post in r/girldinner. Uh, it's a couple personal ple- pers- personal. Okay. Personal pleasure. Personal pleasure. Personal pleasure devices. Yeah, okay. And something to garden with. Oh, okay. I get it. This is gonna be a fun night. You know, for this person. You know? You know, what we really should be, uh, putting the, putting something over the top of is that, is this wine bottle, you know? Because alcohol is really what's damaging the world. And I seem facetious, but I'm being sincere. Hold on. Where is this coming from? I'm just saying that of the things that we're censoring, alcohol is worse for you than both those things by far. I would say the ribs. Uh, but let's bring 'em in. The ribs are the worst. Ribs for your pleasure. There you go. Um, you know, thank you for the clap. Uh, man. These boys like a rib. Mm. So this is clearly a celebratory thing. I love that the cake is on the same board as the meal. Yeah. It's like bring it all out at once. Why not? It's kind of charcuterized . Mm-hmm. Yeah. You know? That is what a lot of girl dinner is. Like, you've got all the little pieces on the same thing. 'Cause it's one dish you have to clean up now. It's also efficiency. Sweet potato fry. Hm. Hm. Some people's favorites. Not mine. I don't get it. I just don't get it, girls. With the mustard I think is a great choice, personally. With the mustard, let's try it. Okay. Yeah, because it masks the fact that it's awkwardly sweet, but it's a fry. Hm. And there's... People just get them 'cause they're better for you or something. Some people prefer the taste. They are way better for you, though. There's not, there's no way anybody would prefers the taste. Ahem. I just don't like s- things that sh- should be savory to be sweet. I just don't believe in that. I'm gonna let you know right now, Link, I'm going for the jugular in this round. Oh. Like, no jokes here. My, my answer is not gonna be funny. My answer's gonna be correct. 'Cause if I know the answer I'm gonna guess it. If I don't know the answer I'm gonna be funny. Those are the only two options that I got. I think it is a positive, though. Mm-hmm. Well, if yours is so jugular- Not, not funny at all ... and not funny, then you should go first. Okay. I don't know if mine's funny, but... All right. Got a job in a male-dominated industry. I, I, I think, I think that's what this is. Oh. I, I think that's what this is. Are you pandering to Jenna? I- Because she did that? I don't feel like I should continue this conversation. Well, actually, is it... I don't know. Entertainment's not a male-dominated industry, is it? Right. That's- Well, I work directly for you all. Kind of is. So I, it, is it... Eh. But we don't dominate you. This is true. You better not. Quite the opposite. Okay. All right. It's, it's to throw fuel on the fire, to dig a deeper hole, I said ... Uh-oh ... I got a promotion in a mattress actress industry. Oh, Link. Oh. Hey, there's, there's nothing wrong with that. There's, there's empowerment in mattress acting. Well, but what would be, what would be a promotion? Becoming a top? What, uh, going, you know what? Going, going s- going solo. Jenna, come on. Help me out here. The bottoms get paid more. Help me out here. What I heard Help me out here. There's no way, there's no way you're choosing mine. What's the right answer though? Maybe it's- Yo, promotion. Promotion Well, hold on, I said the word promotion. Yeah, but I said the other two words. Boy, I really... I'm really looking bad right now. Yeah, you are. Jenna- And you're losing ... why, why aren't you helping me? You're losing. Yeah, that point goes to Rhett. Yeah. It's- That was a clear- Yeah. You, and you, I know you wanna give him another one too. Promotion. Promotion. Uh, just a job. I didn't give her enough credit. She was already working there. Let's, let's see the next one. Let's see the next one. My cat doesn't blank my blank. That cat's just looking up at her. Okay. Mm. We've got beef jerky, we've got dates. This is a little bit thrown together. I mean, I don't wanna be too judgmental about this. I know you're going through it with your cat not blanking your blank. I, I eat this type of stuff all the time. The, I don't consider th- uh, this a dinner though. Oh. This is a snack plate. Well, it's not, it's, it's on a plate. This is a snack plate. I have a n- a nut cabinet, and I just open up that cabinet and just k- just go at it. Oh, I'll get in a nut cabinet. This does, this is sometimes a girl dinner for me. Like, I, uh, for me, girl dinners are, I need four bites at least of eight different things. Uh-huh. But do you put it on a plate? Because I'll eat this kinda thing, but I'm standing up, reaching into things the whole time. Uh, th- that's separate. I like to refer to those as goblin time- ... not, not girl dinners. Goblin time. Girl dinners are on a plate for me. I, boy, I'm a goblin. I'll tell you right now. Mm-mm. I, I'm a goblin all the time. Bam. My cat- Just fridge open, you know? My cat doesn't- Yes ... blank my blank. This is obviously negative. Okay. My cat doesn't lick my toes. Oh. Okay. And you want, and you want that? Oh, yeah. You got a cat. Does your cat lick your toes? No, but I have a dog that does. Okay, I went a little bit more 2026. My cat doesn't read my Substack. When you find out that kinda stuff- All right ... that'll ruin your day You're not winning this one. I like the sound of that. What is it? My cat doesn't like my boyfriend. Doesn't like my boyfriend. Well, what's the news? Your cat doesn't like you or anybody else either probably. That's right. Yeah, uh-huh. You know? Cats don't like humans really. Hmm. Let's see the next one. Well, hold on, who gets the point? I get the point. Once again, Link forgets it's a game. I, I mean, lick and like are pretty similar. Yeah. And maybe the boyfriend will lick her toes. Lick ... Yeah, right. And it'll be fine. Ooh. It's a point for Link. Yeah, that will make things better, won't it? Okay. Uh, before we see the next one, uh, you know, there is a way for you to get 10% off your first order at mythical.com, and also to find out about something you might be wanting to buy over at mythical.com, our upcoming Pride collection. And the best way to do that, to be the first to know, to get that discount, is to sign up for our newsletter, mythical.com/newsletter. You might think, "I don't need another newsletter," but how about one that actually gives you information that you want? So who gets the point for that? Let's see the next one. Hmm. I can't blank my best friend's blank. That is quite a plate she's got there. You putting popcorn on a plate, you at the end of your rope. Yeah, you are. You know what I'm saying? Raspberries and pickle. Good God. And jelly beans. This is my favorite, uh, flavor of bubbly though. Oh, grape? Grape. No, this is blackberry. Oh. They deceived us. They deceived the grape boys. I might like this one even better. That's good. I like grape a little bit better. It's not grape. It's not grape, I'll tell you that right now. I can't blank my best friend's blank. Not to, uh, uh, switch things over, but what, what does a jelly bean inside a raspberry taste like? Okay. Um, well, I'm gonna do the purple one, uh, 'cause it might be grape, and I'm gonna put it in the biggest raspberry. I need to know if this is a revelation. I'm gonna put a green one in the red thing. It's all raspberry to begin with, then it becomes all jelly bean. Um, it's not good, Jenna. Yeah, it's not good at all. It's not good. Thank you, thank you. So this is sad. This is sad. Then, okay. You ready? Oh, you're not ready. Got it. Okay, go ahead. Yeah, this is bad, and, and you're not make it any better with this girl dinner, by the way. I can't remember my best friend's name. Wow. You know? 'Cause- Or how to make a decent plate of food. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, this, this is a, this is a situation that can happen. It's a new person, you're really liking them a lot, and then you're like, "Oh, this is my best friend." Mm. Forgot their name. Mm. Okay. I've, I've never said that to you, have I? No, I don't think that would happen with us. Okay. I have you heard... I have you heard. I have heard you say this, uh, a few times. I can't top my best friend's talent. Ah. And what is that talent? Filling in blanks. I can't stop my best friend's wedding. Stop my best friend's wedding. Ooh. Oh. Hmm. Oh, yeah. Oh. Oh, I'm going to that wedding. Hold on. Here's the thing. You actually can. 'Cause there's a part in the wedding for that. There's a part. Like, okay, let's do that one. They don't legit anymore. What's gonna happen if your, if your best friend is marrying somebody and you don't think that they should, yes, you have the option of trying to interfere and ruining your relationship with them for the rest of your life. Um, but, or you can just sit there and watch them ruin their life. If you feel that strongly about it, yes, you can stop it. Who gets the point? I- Their name is gonna change if they get married, and they may forget it. Oh, that's, ooh, that's good. But, yeah, you know what? Oh, ee, it's so sad. Give him the point. I, no, I actually was gonna give it to Link because the Top the Talent is, like, so depressing, and I mean, they put, they put it on a plate that you don't even have to wash, and that's, that's- Yeah. I g- I think- Yeah ... it's to Link and Top the Talent. Okay. Comparison is a r- is a real problem. Give him the point, and let's see the next one. I'm blank. Yikes. And all you're doing to deal with that is getting yourself a- Croissan'wich ... sandwich. And a strawberry shortcake coffee. Is that a croissan'wich? It's a m- It is a cragel, a croissant bagel. Hm. I wish it was a croissan'wich. So, so a harder croissan'wich. Yeah, right. Uh-huh. Don't go half croissant. Mm-mm. Go full croissant. Yeah. Yikes. Yikes. Hm. All right. Go ahead. I'm homophobic. Yikes. Okay. So they're just realizing it. I mean, if, if yikes is ever called for. At least, at least they- It's this ... at least they, they know. They recognize it, you know? Yeah. The first step to recovery. Right, exactly. Is admitting you have a problem. You gotta yikes it up. Well, interesting. We were kinda, like, not on the same exact wavelength, but similar areas. I'm poly. Yikes. Um, and just- So we're kind of on opposite ends ... let me just ex- let me just explain. This is not judgmental. This is just, like, this me- they're thinking about... This is actually empathetic on my part- ... 'cause what they're thinking is that, man, the number of relationships that I might be g- having to deal with in near tun- near-term future, yikes, that's gonna be difficult. I really gotta buckle down and get my together. You know what I'm saying? It's, it's complicated. Yeah. It's g- I, th- my life might be a- be about to get a little complicated. So which one of us was right? I'm 50. Yikes. Uh. Well, let's just lure. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, well, I got the same number of syllables. Jenna? Yeah. I, I think I'm gonna give it to Rhett on this one 'cause poly feels like a cragel choice. Yeah. Hm. And something that might happen in your middle age. Yeah. Where you're like, "Oh, you know what? I think I'm poly." All right. Let's see the last one. "Took two blank blank and both were blank." Yay. What is all of this stuff? Are those cashews? What we have- Some Chinese food. Oh, it's Chinese takeout. What do we have here? Oh, look at this red chicken. Good gosh, that's red, boy. Sweet and sour pork. It's an actually a British Chinese dish consisting of chipped potatoes mixed with stir-fried onions, chili peppers, and bell peppers. Mm-hmm. So this is a British girl dinner. Is that what you're saying? I took two... There's three blanks in this one, Link, and we're all tied up, so it really comes down to this. They're obviously pleased. This is, this is a celebratory dinner. All right. Obviously pleasing than what? "Took two random pills and both were placebos." Yay. We are, we are so close to each other, dude. Oh, really? Yes. Same wavelength here. Okay, let me see. But I, mine, mine makes more sense than yours. "Took two huge pills." "Both were Klonopin." Oh. Wow. Yay. Now that's a yay. No, but you would know- Homo- homophobia, yikes. Klonopin- No ... yay. But mine's is a realization. Placebo is not yay. Mine's a realization, 'cause it's like you took two random pills. Let's see what happens. Placebo's, yay. If you just took two huge pills and you're not celebrating in the moment that you're taking the pills, right, you're waiting on the effects of them. Jenna, what was the real answer? "Took two pregnancy tests and both were negative." Were negative, yay. Hey, placebos, negative, nothing. Placebo. Uh, no, no, no, no. Placebos. But- Uh-huh. Uh-huh ... but you're happy. Please keep underlining it. Yeah. Yeah. This, this does not make sense to be happy. This makes sense to be happy. If you just took two random pills and it didn't do anything to you, it's just like- I would be disappointed. Take, if you had a good night and then you took a pregnancy test and they were negative- Hmm ... you'd be happy. All right, Jenna, it's up to you. Uh, I, thinking this over, since it is tied, it's, it's very serious, but I gotta say pregnancy tests and finding out they were negative feels very similar to random pills, placebos, 'cause you're fine, you're safe, everything's gonna be okay. Yeah. It's like- So for that reason- So close, though. Yeah. Wow. We had it down to just the what type of pill it was. That means that Rhett is our winner, and Link, as our loser, is officially named Misogynist Brian. Oh, wow. The first negative Brian we've had. You know what? Yikes. Yikes. Yikes. 50. All right.
