Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, Leprechauns, Unicorns, two pretty best friends and love.

They don't exist, bro.

I've looked far and wide, I've searched the depths of the valleys and the highs of the mountains.

And yet still, one of the friends always gotta be chopped, bro.

But love too though, man.

I've searched everywhere.

I've scoured my hometown.

I've gone from the coast of Mexico to the cities of Japan.

But one way or another, I always just end up with nobody to love.

Or I end up getting robbed by gay homeless dude.

I mean I was down bad, bruh.

It got to the point I thought maybe I just wasn't meant to find a girlfriend.

Maybe this was just a face only a mother could love.

Ew, get that shit off the screen!

What?

Maw!

So I hopped on a flight to Barcelona and this story takes place a few weeks ago.

It's a new continent, new city with new people and maybe even a new girlfriend.

And so as soon as I stepped foot on that Spanish soil, I downloaded Tinder and got the swiping bro.

Find shit, swipe right, cute shit, swipe right, chop shit, swipe right bro.

It's a numbers game.

I done swiped so much my thumb had a six pack and I ran out of girls to swipe on.

Heh.

But shit, I mean it's a numbers game.

And since I pulled up Solo Dolo, I went and checked into a hostel.

Now if you don't know what a hostel is, it's pretty much like a little hotel except you share your room with like six other motherfuckers.

But to be fair, you save a lot of money

and I lowkey don't mind sleeping with some random dudes If it means I get some extra change in my pocket, you know what I'm saying?

Uh, is 15 enough?

Nah, nah, the hostel is like 30 something now Oh nah, I don't need a hostel What?

Wait, no, not like that, bro Anyways, sleeping in that hostel was fucking crazy, bro Like first night I got there, I hopped in my little twin bunk bed and closed the curtains And everyone was like Alright,

goodnight boys Goodnight again Love you motherfuckers Love y'all motherfuckers Yo, motherfucker on the top right bunk, save back Uh-huh.

Yeah, uh, uh, goodnight. And?

Uh, I-I love you?

Love you too, bro.

Lights out.

So the sun came up and my ass didn't get a drop of sleep.

But regardless, I got out of bed, got some coffee, explored the city, hit the beach, got some food.

All the normal shit you do when you're in a new city.

But after a long day of tourist shit, I went back to my room.

I went back to our room.

I hopped in my little bunk bed

and prepared myself to open up Tinder after letting that shit cook for a solid 24 hours.

And when I opened that shit up, yo, I got 28 matches.

Yeah.

Yeah, thank you, bro.

Thank you, man.

Yeah.

Oh, hell no. Now I'm gonna keep it a buck.

Initially, that number 28 was looking mad nice until I clicked that shit and started looking through my matches and realized,

Yo, this shit is not a numbers game, bro.

Like, you know you're cooked when the chuds are sliding on you saying shit like, Ay, yo, I'm trying to put you in chains, for real, and then touch your stick, man.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, nah, I'm deleting this shit, bro.

And just as I'm about to give up on my dreams of finding my other half, I get a new match.

It's Yvonne, straight dime, certified fine shit, bro.

I had to slide in with some heat.

So I'm like, Yvonne?

Nah, more like Kingvonne, cause I'm trying to take you to the O.

The marriage.

Now that would be a crazy story.

Opening bracket, featuring Lothar, closing bracket.

And before I send her some absolute bullshit like that, she hits me with a Heyyyy Aw, you know, nah that works.

Uh, what's up?

How are you?

Great, how are you?

And we end up having a marvelous conversation.

We share a bunch of beliefs, perspectives, and above all, we got the same taste in music.

So I'm like, you free tomorrow?

Yeah, I'm free tomorrow.

What's your favorite food?

Um, I'm a drinks type of girl.

Say less, I know a place.

I don't know shit.

I literally just got here, bruh.

Okay, see you tomorrow.

And just like that, I just got myself a date.

I'm coming.

Nah, you can't come, it's my date, bruh.

Oh, hell no. So that night, I did a little research and found the coolest bar in Barcelona.

But when I went to make a reservation online, they only do in-person virtual queues.

So instead, I went to sleep.

So the next day I woke up with some pep in my goddamn step.

I looked at some fire architecture, I hit all mean leg day, ate some gas, Spanish food and before I knew it,

it was time to get ready for my date.

So I hopped in the shower, put on my toughest fit, sprayed on a lil Valentino, hopped into Uber and arrived at the bar 30 minutes early.

So this way, I could join the virtual queue in order to get into the bar at 9pm sharp.

So I'm waiting outside and Fonshit messages me like, Yo, I'm gonna be a little bit late, I'm still doing my hair.

And I'm all like, that's no problem.

I know some people, I can make some calls, don't worry about it.

So I walk up to the security out front like, Yo, so Fonshit says she's gonna be a little bit late, can I change the time or something?

Nah, bro, just rejoin.

I bet.

So I rejoin, go sit outside and wait, and then I get another text message.

I'm so sorry, but my makeup took longer than I thought, so I'm gonna be a little bit extra late.

So I walk up, rejoin the queue, and security's like, Yo, what's going on?

Ah, it's nothing.

Fine shit's makeup took a little longer than expected, you know?

Hey, listen, man.

100

This fine shit of yours, you sure she's even coming?

101

Nah, yeah, yeah, yeah, nah, of course.

102

That's fine shit.

103

She's coming.

104

So I go back and sit down outside,

105

but looking back, I definitely gave her the benefit of the doubt, But that.. that was her first red flag.

106

So now it's about 9.40pm and I get a text message from Yvonne that reads, I'm here.

107

So I go to Link with Yvonne for the moment of truth, whether or not I'm about to go on a date with fine shit, or 50 year old and neck bearded catfish shit,

108

and fortunately for me, no catfish.

109

James!

110

Yo!

111

Hey!

112

What's up?

113

Now the virtual queue still had 10 minutes before we could get in, So we go and sit down outside and have a little chat

114

and it's a great conversation We got a lot to talk about

115

and the vibes are there so you could travel to Barcelona alone What what do you do is it daddy's money?

116

Yeah?

117

Yeah?

118

It's daddy's money.

119

Ah, okay interesting, but I'm daddy Yeah, no, I need to drink some alcohol.

120

Yeah, nah me too.

121

Me too me too me too My phone beeps and it's our turn to go inside, but this is no regular bar So I'm like yo just follow me

122

so we enter this pastrami shop I open the fridge we go inside

123

and we go through this tunnel that leads us to the bar We order our drinks and continue talking Okay, so if it's not daddy's money then then what do you do

124

and so obviously I just told her like only fans You're lying.

125

I am dead ass serious.

126

My meat is all over the worldwide net what no way Show me oh shit like not uh shit.

127

Maybe after a few drinks You know what I'm saying?

128

And right on time, our drinks showed up and my shit, my shit was radioactive Bro like here's a picture there are no filters or effects on that shit,

129

and I'm not gonna lie it tasted exactly How it looked but regardless I'm tanking that shit, and I don't know what it is But

130

that shitty ass drink was giving me superpowers brah that's had me cooking up the greatest answers to her questions Possible brah,

131

okay, so if you had one wish what would it be damn?

132

Damn that's a good question, uh shit.

133

Okay if I had one wish...

134

Period cramps!

135

What?

136

I would rid the world of period cramps man!

137

I hate the fact that they exist just even thinking about it like ooooh!

138

Ooooooh they sure do get me riled up man!

139

I hate em!

140

Wait!

141

Me too!

142

Nah that's crazy we have so much in common!

143

And from that moment on I could tell she took down her guard and got comfortable Cuz she started saying shit like,

144

ugh, this guy from my school is obsessed with me and he won't stop snapping me.

145

Damn, maybe you should stop responding or some shit.

146

She snaps a picture of us and captions that shit.

147

He getting it and you nod, lol.

148

Red flag number two, what kind of anime villain origin story are you trying to create for this motherfucker, bro?

149

But I digress.

150

We order the second round of drinks, but as she's sipping that shit, I can hear an accent starting to form in her speech.

151

So I'm like, yo, where's this accent coming from?

152

Oh yeah nah when I drink my french accent starts coming out

153

and I kid you not she went from one drink sounding like yeah So

154

so my favorite food is pasta to drink four dead ass

155

talking like actually I changed my mind My favorite food is croissant.

156

Shawty turned from fine shit to french shit

157

so fast I didn't even know who I was on a date with at this point

158

and then she hits me with a I'll be right back She grabs my face

159

and hits my ass with a big ass smooch.

160

Now that shit took me aback I was not expecting it however However, maybe it's just a culture thing.

161

Maybe it's normal for her.

162

So I can't say that it's a real red flag.

163

So she's still in the game.

164

And when she comes back, she's like, Yo, James, let's go to the beach.

165

Say less.

166

So we're walking down to the beach and she says some shit like, So when's the next date?

167

Oh, it's on Saturday at 6 p.m.

168

Oh, no, I'm not free on Saturday.

169

Oh, you mean date with you?

170

Yeah, nah, this is the last one.

171

Now, I said it as a joke, but she wanted to get all mad and shit and storm off.

172

Now, in this situation, I have two options.

173

Option A is chase after her and beg her to stay.

174

And option B is standing there like an absolute peak male specimen to the point the gravitational pull of my testosterone

175

retrieves her back to the very location she left.

176

And I went with option B.

177

And she came back, bruh.

178

You're supposed to chase after me.

179

It's like a French thing.

180

Ah, okay.

181

I'm...

182

I'm...

183

I'm not French, bruh.

184

So we continue with our walk and I'm cracking jokes, entertaining her and shit, but honestly, that little stunt shorty pulled back there was red flag number three for me, bro.

185

So at this point, at this point, I'm not in it for the game of love.

186

I am simply just in it for the love of the game, bruh.

187

So we arrive at Barceloneta Beach.

188

We sit down and at this point, it's about 1 a.m.

189

But we're still chatting, having a good time.

190

But out of the corner of my eye, I see a man hooded up walking towards us from the darkness.

191

And as bros approaching, I'm ready for anything.

192

I'm getting ready to take a stand, throw some hands, get in the sand, shit I'd even go bam for bam.

193

But if this dude gets any closer, I'd be damned and this motherfucker hits us with a drive-by compliment.

194

You have a very beautiful girlfriend.

195

Aw, thank you.

196

Uh, thank you?

197

Damn, do you think he'll find a girlfriend beautiful like me?

198

Yeah, nah, he seems like a great dude.

199

I'm sure he could find somebody.

200

What?

201

I said, yeah, nah, he seems like a nice fella.

202

This girl slaps the shit out of me and says, you're supposed to say nobody's as beautiful as me, bro.

203

In this moment, I had never been so unattracted to a girl in my life.

204

Am I tripping or did you just slap the shit out of me?

205

And then she tries to kiss me again talking about...

206

I'm sorry.

207

Mmm.

208

Nah.

209

What?

210

No what?

211

And even after getting my shit absolutely Will Smith, I'm still trying to be polite like...

212

Listen, I don't kiss girls on the first date.

213

You don't kiss girls on the first date.

214

Yeah.

215

So you're telling me for a living your occupation is laying down

216

that pipe on film and then Proceeding to post it online and you can't kiss me

217

Type shit and she storms off bro, but I know exactly what to do to solve this problem

218

So why stand there like an absolute peak male? specimen to conjure up that same Gravitational pull and she's still walking bro.

219

She she just kept walking she got on the bus she dipped bro She left damn

220

and as the bus disappears in the distance.

221

I hear a motherfucker say yo you from here nah nah I'm just visiting.

222

Oh shit.

223

Okay us, too.

224

You know where the good clubs are at?

225

226

227

Okay We're about to go hit those if you're trying to pull up bro

228

Say less so these two random ass dudes I just met

229

and I start heading to the club together and I'm like yo, where you guys from by the way?

230

231

237

Yeah So, uh, so why's your cheeks?

238

Oh, right?

239

Oh, I mean she just slapped the shit out of me She what I mean?

240

It's probably just a French thing.

241

You know what I'm saying?

242

Nah, nah, nah, nah Not a French thing.

243

You just got assaulted.

244

Oh shit So me and the new French homies pull up to the club and it's jumping, right?

245

We start taking shots shooting shots Air balling shots

246

and then I get a bunch of voice messages from Yvonne

247

talking about All the good feelings I had for you are gone.

248

You are a literal piece of shit.

249

Go get AIDS filming for OnlyFans bitch

250

And I'm drunk as hell trying to say a nice response

251

like you know like it's really like it really is the

252

type of shit We're like like type shit like no French homies take my phone

253

and start cooking her ass in French Now I didn't understand a single word

254

that came out of their mouth

255

But it sounded like homies just dropped a career-ending diss track on her

256

And I say that cuz as soon as she opened it She blocked my ass, bruh Hey, bro, you know what they say What do they say?

257

Getting blocked a whole lot better than getting cocked What?

258

There is no way they say that Y'all three-man alert three-man alert

259

So the two homies start laying down that French wrist and that shit hits so hard I just got a free entry, bruh Hey, hey, uh, English Shit.

260

Room for one more?

261

So the six of us absolutely fucked the club up, went out for some 4AM churros, dipped in chocolate, and man, that shit hit harder than- Man,

262

263

So at the end of the day, even if I didn't end up finding love in Barcelona, there is one thing I did find.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
