Good morning.
Speaker A:It's haystack.
Speaker A:And if you're planning to travel and visit friends and family over the holiday, chances are you're going to hear someone say, oh, stay as long as you like.
Speaker A:They don't mean it.
Speaker A:According to a new survey, most people would be happy to host guests for six days and any longer that you're overstaying your welcome.
Speaker A:I was impressed because when I have guests for more than about six hours, I start to freak out and think, get on out of here, skit.
Speaker A:One third of people in the survey admit that they will begin to drop hints that it is time to go.
Speaker A:And nearly a fourth claim they just outright say, get out of here.
Speaker A:You've been here too long.
Speaker A:Not all guests, of course, share the same timetable.
Speaker A:Parents are cool with their kids staying for 10 days on average.
Speaker A:Let's be honest, most moms probably are happier with, you know, 80, 90 days forever in laws.
Speaker A:And other family members should cut it off after five days.
Speaker A:For what it's worth, most people that were surveyed said they enjoy, they love to host guests, and nearly half want to be the home where everyone gathers for festivities.
Speaker A:The biggest problem, of course, is room.
Speaker A:40% of people say they don't have a guest room, so overnight visitors are relegated to sleeping on the couch.
Speaker A:So there you go.
Speaker A:Six days is how long you can stay before you've overstayed your welcome once.
Speaker A:Day seven hits.
Speaker A:Well, I got some ideas on how maybe you can get people to leave you alone.
Speaker A:Well, gather round, folks.
Speaker A:It's the time of day when we laugh and smile in a light hearted way.
Speaker A:Tune in for the giggles and let's kick back.
Speaker A:Here comes the fun.

Speaker A:Number number five.
Speaker A:Here, take this copy of Dianetics and tell me what do you really know about Scientology?
Speaker A:Yeah, that'll, that'll get rid of number four.
Speaker A:So let me tell you why locals call this the triple murder home.
Speaker A:I tell you those words, triple murder home, that'll, that'll get rid of you.
Speaker A:Let's see here.
Speaker A:The number three way to get rid of guests who have overstayed their welcome.
Speaker A:Just randomly look at, look around with a blank look on your face and say, does anyone else hear a voice telling them to kill in the name of Satan and that I should probably do it.
Speaker A:Let's see here.
Speaker A:Number two, Announce that your kid's pet cobra is missing, and everyone should watch their step.
