Well, isn't that a happy little mystery we have here! If we call the first integer x, then the next consecutive integer would be x+1. When we add them together, we get x + (x+1) = -165. So, we can solve this by adding the two integers and setting the sum equal to -165. Happy problem-solving!

Oh, dude, that's easy! So, if we have two consecutive integers, let's call them x and x+1, right? And if their sum is -165, we just set up the equation x + (x+1) = -165 and solve it. So, x + x + 1 = -165, which simplifies to 2x + 1 = -165. Then we just solve for x by subtracting 1 from both sides and dividing by 2. So, x = -83.5. But wait, integers can't be decimals, so that means there are no two consecutive integers that add up to -165. Like, whoa, mind blown!
