It's got to be closing in on about our 250th episode or so. If you consider the old failed company we were a part of.

And my name is Jeff Rezzi with me as always. Andrew Panton, Gavin Free, Nick Schwartz, Eric Badour. I guess if a company does get shut down, it technically is failed, right? Like I feel like 20, what, 21 years? That's like saying when someone dies at age 95, they failed. I mean- They do say that. They do say that.

They say, oh, his heart failed. Yeah. Oh yeah. I have a friend who says, if you don't live to a 100, you don't live a full life. Like Prince Philip died at 99. The first text that I got from my friend Andrew Douglas was so close to a full life, man. What a bummer. Bear you wine as well.

Almost made it. Oh, she was close. I like the idea of Nick having to sync our audio whenever we do a countdown. The idea is like the second one is going to be synced up. He's going to try and sync again. I have a question for you, Gavin. OK. When's a year old? When is a year old?

When is a year old? When does a year become old? When you followed me on the blue sky a little while back. And I'll give it a profile and I open your profile. You had one post that said Happy New Year. And it went, I'll give it a profile. And I opened your profile. You had one post that said happy new year. And it made me wonder, when does a year become old? We get a new year every year. At what point is it an old year?

Certainly last year is an old year. Yeah, are you saying like when is the year itself old or when can you stop saying happy new year? I'm saying when does the year itself become older? You saying, Jeff, that last year is old year? Yeah, it's been is becoming older every day. That is true. Twenty twenty three is old for sure.

There's some stuff in twenty twenty four that isn't old yet. But I'd say an entire number ago before the last year is old. But would you say that a movie that came out last year is old? No. Like at what point does the year like if something released in that year is an old and how is the year old? No. Like at what point does the year like if something released in that year isn't old, then how is the year old? I was trying to figure out what is a year old. It depends on what you're talking about. Like like Rooster Teeth was like 85 years old and Internet is.

That's true, but that's a different metric. We're talking like dog. We're talking Internet and human normal years. When's a year old? I think when you take the calendar down to replace it with a new calendar that year becomes old immediately Yeah, but three like three weeks. It's in the past man. Stop living in the past. What do you care? That was so long ago. See I think at least it's like ten years at least whether it was three weeks ago or three years ago It's still in the past

Ten years, so you think 2016 wasn't a while ago? That's an old year. Fuck. You think 20, you know, they pre pandemic was a long time ago. That was three lifetimes ago. Yeah, it is. Yeah, it does feel that way. And time, I guess this is where it gets dumb. I feel like it's every 10 years, but it changes per year you're in. So 2009, 2010.

That's a that's a old year. 2009. Once you hit a new 10. But if it's 2001, that year doesn't become old until 2010. When does a car become a classic? That's a great question. 20 years or 25 years. I think it maybe just follows that because it's like consoles become retro after 20. When you're when the year ticks over and you can get a special license plate because it's been so long, that's when it's old.

Can somebody look up when does a car become a classic and then there? There's no agreed upon age because it varies by state, unfortunately. What about vintage? When does a car become vintage? Yeah. OK, a car is generally considered vintage if it was manufactured between 1919 and 1930. Okay. Well, I would say that's more of an antique car. Yeah.

When does it really shit me up about years? What? Wizard of Oz, right? Bloody old movie. Yeah. But when I was born, it was a movie as old as if I watched Taxi Driver now. Yeah, that's always the reverse math is always bad. You shouldn't do that math. It's not good.

It never makes you feel good. That's sad maths. In the state of Texas, a car, a passenger car, truck or or motorcycle becomes a classic after 25 years you can apply for a classic plate. So what was 25 years ago? 2000? Yep. Every car, every one of us drove, with the exception of Gavin, in the year 2000 is a classic car. Oh, fuck.

Really? How many of us would drive in 2000? I was not. I was a freshman in high school. I was not driving. Every one of us. Hey, Jeff, you're just classic, baby. I was driving to fucking work with Gus in 2000. Jesus. Yeah, that sucks on like a bunch of levels.

Anyway, 25 years ago. Not that long. I just looked up wine. Did you know that vintage wine is any wine that has the year printed on it? I thought it had to be really old. Holy shit. Could we print some 2025 vintage wine? Yes, you could Literally in the descriptor of wine printed in 2022 would be vintage wine I just the year I think I think we're used I think wine uses vintage in a different term than you're using vintage. I think wine- That's just the year. Yes, I think the vintage of the wine,

it just means the year of the wine. Like that's just what it is. But I'm saying I didn't know that, that was my point. I assumed. Okay. And I'm not, I don't drink wine, so like- I didn't know that. I can't be the only one.

When you hear vintage, you think, I think in a broader way than the specific use That it seems to be used in wine. What about neo vintage? What is neo vintage? so What would that be? I don't know you're the one that pitched it like it's like if if neo from the matrix is 25 years wondering if he marks it Um is 25 years old. I was wondering if he marks it. Um, I, oh, it's a watch thing, Gavin. Neo vintage is a watch. Oh yeah. I think I've heard it be talking about Neo vintage

watches. When it comes to pre-owned watches, there are different categories that differentiate style. Neo vintage. There's no clear answer. Great. This has been the worst. Trying to define the shit has been awful. Like steampunk? Is neo like steampunk? What?

It sounds like it's a style thing, right? Like the use of neon is the same as steampunk where steampunk represents a style. Not a thing. That's what I gathered from that statement. Anyway, Gavin, continue. Wait, do you think we're saying Neo or Neon? Neo, Ne-o.

Okay, I'm just making sure I thought. But then you read it and you're like, you said, oh, it sounds like it's like a style, like there's a style of watches that are called Neo watches. And so I was saying, is it like steampunk or that's also a style? I'm not saying it looks like steampunk, but in the sense that steampunk is a phrase for a specific style

Neo is just means new combining new recent revived or modified new vintage like Neolithic 2025 wine I That just sounds like a scam. I want a book that gets me at a surface level into the lingo of a bunch of different niches. You like flip the page to watch and it's like Neo vintage and then you flip the page to like football and it says like roll tide or something. It just gets you by in conversations with with just random people you meet in an airport.

You know, I's a good idea. You know, I played a game when I was in Detroit over Christmas that was kind of like, kind of like that. It was a game of global catchphrases. And then you'd read a card and then you'd read like three, like, uh, everybody had to like write a fake one down and there was one real one and you had to figure out what the real catchphrase was. But we played for like two hours.

I'd never heard or recognized a single phrase from that story. And it was just like places, you know, like this is what they say in Rwanda and this is what they say in Sweden. And it was fucking I felt like I was learning all kinds of culture. Maybe maybe we get that game. Is there a certain subculture that has a vernacular you like their usage of or like a word from it? I like in poker, the use of sick. I really enjoy it because it means everything.

It could be either like you have something horrible happen to you. And the response would be that was so sick. Or if it is like you do something amazing, it's like that was that was sick. That's correct. I didn't realize that was. I feel like that's just outside of poker, too. I feel like I hear more so in poker than anywhere else. Oh Yeah, poker would definitely be a chapter in this in this regulation lingo book Wine and coffee would probably have like at least two pages each. Yeah. Oh wine. I bet you had some snooty ass

Yeah, there's some snooty feels like yeah, it's snooty itself feels like it's some wine I Don't feel like I use snoot enough just in your everyday life. Yeah, like could snoot me a nose Yeah, you gotta you gotta get a dog because I say am I thinking I've helped Yeah, I say it almost every day to my dog. I just go snoot and then The didn't the Concord have a snoot Like a little droop snoot on the front? Droop snoot should be Gavin. I want to talk about this later actually. I'm just gonna throw this out there. Droop snoot could be Gavin's 2025 nickname. I'll go droop snoot. I think... Wait, is this... Hang on, is this real?

Yeah, the droop snoot. Why is this... This plane looks bummed out so I don't make it anymore I think they do that because August would know this I think well I think a part of it is so the pilots aren't aimed at the sky the whole way on the runway So it like snoops snoots Drop the snoot Raise this the snoot is jammed Yeah, because if you're landing a concord, which no one is anymore,

I don't think you'd be able to see the ground if you didn't droop the snoot. This is this episode. Where's that slider thing? I'm up to like a nine right now. I'm having it looks almost like a plane that isn't circumcised is I guess Like it looks like there's extra plane planes got extra stuff all over the front of it Yeah, it looks like a plane that somebody's older brother broke and then the kids just tried to put it back together It's best exactly they still wanted to run around the yard

Yeah, it's the droop snoot. Yeah. What a Sid's toys speaking of guys new nickname droop snoot. I was thinking of the other day. It's 2025 now, right? Fresh year new star we've had a lot of different eras throughout the the Company one of which was our nickname era when we went through everybody was getting new nicknames, and I was thinking fresh year fresh start My initial thought was maybe we picked new nicknames for everybody that we have that are our 2025 nicknames, and I was you know thinking I was actually thinking about like I was I see I've been thinking a lot about Panama Jack lately, and I want to I'll talk about him later at some point

because I want to I want to talk to you guys about a I I'll talk about him later at some point. Because I wanna talk to you guys about a, I wanna talk to you guys about a legendary figure I've heard of around these parts called Gerpil Joe. But that's for another day. I was thinking it'd be fun if we had nicknames that were associated with locations, like Eric because he's the president

and because he won the contest. He could be Deputy Eric, right? Because he's like Deputy Indiana, Panama Jack. Santa, like Nick, Nick could be deputy Eric right because like deputy Indiana Panama Jack San Antonio like Nick we could Nick could be Nick Antonio right? Nick is so easy to make nicknames for by the way But then I had another thought it evolved from that into what if we did a draft a nickname draft every year And then everybody drafts nicknames and the nicknames you get are the nicknames you're allowed to use in that calendar year So wait who's drafting a nickname for who yeah, we're all drafting our own nicknames from the global pool

Okay, and then if I get the nickname you wanted now But you can't pick our nickname like Andrew could like if Andrew got t-bone before I do then he gets to be t-bone for you I like I like the idea, but they're right. You can't pick your own nickname. So I think what we have to do, since there's five of us and we would all have four slots, we have to draft nicknames for each other. So we would have to randomize and then in each slot, I guess the first one would be like Andrew,

and then we all give like our Andrew nicknames, except Andrew. And then the next one would be like Gavin, and we all give Gavin nicknamesnames except Andrew and then the next one would be like Gavin and we All give Gavin nicknames Gavin and so everyone would have four nicknames Do then we spin a wheel and whatever the wheel is what that person's nickname is? Want to get stuck with another fucking shitty gooch pooch situation This is such a good idea dude you could absolutely still get somebody could submit that for you. I'm putting it.

No, we can't use old nicknames. You might end up being droop snoot for all we know. Oh, no. Drup snoop. Well, what if, for example, I don't say anyone's going to drop this, but what if all four of the others of us drafted piss rap for Eric? Would he would wouldn't be taken? Well, then there would be collusion. We would would he would would one be taken well

then there would be collusion and we would have to we would have to throw it out we'd have to throw it out so you can't have to you can't have dupes no I think it would be like when you try to get a gamer tag in Xbox live so we just have to put a number on it I think piss rat 01 piss rat 69 piss rat 420 x piss rat x And then just read for 20. Yeah, yeah. Exactly. Well, OK, thanks. That's that's the title. Oh, man. Great. This is fucking great. I like this nickname thing. All right. So let's do the nickname draft in the way Eric described it.

And then, yeah, and then we do the wheel to determine. And then at the end of it, these are our nicknames for the year. And you stuck with them till 2026. I'm putting it in the idea bank. I think we should do this. OK, speaking of drafts, we're doing some tomorrow. And speaking of that, I've got a clip. Clip. You want to hear a clip?

I would love to. Are you going to be able to play it? Let me just double check that it's not going to play through some headphones somewhere. OK, here we go. Did your whole computer. I mean, yeah, yeah. But don't worry. Here we go. Ready? Not hearing it. Yeah, yeah. Don't worry. Here we go. Ready? Not hearing it.

Not working. Leave all this in. Okay. I'll tell you what happened. It's just a recording of the YouTube video and it has... And the way that Apple redid their photos app I couldn't see the play button because it was covered up by a bunch of comments. Here we go. These are good. We'll talk about all these sausage chakras or whatever. We want to pitch these ideas later but like are we

Nostradamus was such a fun. I just like that name so much. It's great. We got to do that soon. I just watched interview the vampires a 94 film. Yeah, I did. A few weeks ago. Was the was the clip, Gavin? Why are we talking about vampires? Because we were talking about it came up previously about doing a Wheel of Years draft where we pick movies that were born or that the movies came out the year

we were born and that came out that time. So I remember specifically, I remember that moment that you're playing. It doesn't fit with what was said, but I had been thinking about it because we had mentioned it like a little prior to that and I was just sitting on that. I just thought that you thought Nostradamus was Nosferatu. No, no, no way. That would have been awesome. Nostradamus was Nosferatu Man

You were laying it out to see if I'd be like yeah, you know the guy that knows stuff knows for all to he's a vampire You were laying the trap. Yeah, I wasn't sure I know the difference That's fair. That feels like a mistake. I could make but no I yeah that was very similar It was the transition was a little funky because I was thinking about it prior to you and it was a reference we had earlier Wow, that's a that's a rare wriggling out of a clip. That's an invalid clip. I take it back But I feel like that was worth it like I'm not mad that you tried that cuz man What a moment if I would have not know yeah, you can't be afraid Hey, you can't be afraid. You can't be afraid to take a shot absolutely I had an Recently we talked to a couple episodes ago about our issue with glasses in the ocean now the ocean is undefeated a Bunch of people in the comments brought up to me the fact that we used to sell the fucking

Jet-ski kit that had the glasses cord on it that we could wrap we gonna put on our glasses So they would never fucking fall off and I have like three of them in my fucking house And it never crossed my mind we used to produce the goddamn things Create the solution to your own problem. Yeah, we created a problem by ignoring the solution we'd already invented. Invented that we'd already put a logo on. I have it's the king. You have one's really funny. So I'm not in front of me, but I have one in my house.

I got a couple of my house somewhere. Oh, I think of two. I have them like there's like a bunch. I have a bunch of old like stuff somewhere in a box. So any can't good stuff you guys didn't get to? Was there like a moment where like behind the scenes, you know, maybe some text in the back and forth of, oh, that was, oh man, that person really did something dumb. And we haven't talked about it publicly. Any of those?

Eric was in some sort of little corn thing and he described it as if it was like a cake or something and he described it as if someone made creamed corn solid again. And I thought it was very funny. We were at the buffet and I got a cheesecake and then the cheesecake was definitely not cheesecake. It was creamed corn. What? It was like more of like a cornbread kind of a thing, but it was like if they re-solidify, like.

Imagine it looks exactly like cheesecake, same consistency in everything, like, like a key, like a key lime pie or a cheesecake, but it just tasted like fucking like savory-ish Swedish sweet corn. It was very strange. So off-putting. Yeah. Another thing that I remember that I don't think we talked about was one night there was entertainment and we watched it

and it was like a burlesque show thing. And it was really cool. Like the dancing was really impressive. And there was a woman doing like gymnastic stuff like contortionist stuff that was like really cool. At one point, there was a pole dancer who was doing a pole dance and climbed to the top and was ultra athletic and it was really impressive. And then she slid down from the top to the bottom. And it, her like legs, what would you say?

Skidding down the pole. Think about the most painful time you ever went down a slide at a playground when you were a kid. A dry-ass metal slide. It sounded like that all the way down. Yeah, it was like, it was so impressive what she was doing. And then that happened and it was an audience full of people looking at each other and going, Oh, God, oh, oh, it was pretty cool.

Dude, there was a show, nobody else went but Emily and I, because Emily, half the reason Emily goes to these all-inclusives is for the the nightly entertainment Like she fucking loves it. We went to every show. I think we missed one, but we went to every other show We were the only ones to go to the final show though, which was called urban which was a lot of like

like Hip-hop dancing, but there were a couple of segments that were just so off the wall The only thing that was cohesive about it was that it was kind of like hip-hop themed right urban but at one point they had a dance troupe come out and One of the guys took me a while to figure it out one of the guys was dressed up as Quicksilver from that x-men movie where I think it's like Jesse Eisenberg or where he's got like gray hair And he wears like a silver outfit Yeah Movie where I think it's like Jesse Eisenberg or where he's got like gray hair and he wears like a silver outfit Yeah

and then the other dudes were bullies that were beating people up in the street and then he would come and stop time and Then beat them all up and then start time again and then beat them all up and then stop time and that was a whole Routine that went on forever and it was just suddenly it was a Marvel thing and then we had a bunch of other weird Like there was some jump roping stuff that they did and a bunch of neon stuff Neo neon, I think they called it and and then Then the final thing was a performance where it was a bunch of dudes To describe it

There's a bunch of guys that were pretending to drive a car and they were hip-hop dancing while they were driving the car And then one of them took out the driver takes out his invisible phone and they start taking selfies of them dancing and not paying attention to driving. And they're all posing and stuff. And then it's like, and they fake turn the wheel and then kaboom, the fake car explodes because they were they were they were texting and taking photos instead of driving. And then all the guys fall down on the ground and then The V for vendetta guy shows up Like an angel, but he's got like the fucking guy Fox mask on and everything and he dances around them for a while

And then he pulls out for V for vendetta masks and he puts them on their chests And then they come back to life and they all dance together and then that was it was over. Hell. Yeah It was the most bizarre storytelling. I think I ever see I dropped a couple videos in here They are not necessarily of what Jeff is describing, but it is the same show Where people are just dribbling basketballs to a middling crowd? Oh, yeah, a lot of basketball And it's just people watching it that second video is just an astronaut. I think dribbling holding a basketball and then the LA Lakers join him and It's pretty special. It's pretty cool. What if we sold a photorealistic Guy Fawkes mask?

I think that's the best idea I have ever heard we just take I think that's the best idea I have ever heard we just take It looks kind of like the symbolic part of people like what's What guy Fox was a guy Go ahead I Know guy Fox from V for vendetta. That's my my point of guy Fox. You don't know him from Parliament my my point of Guy Fox. You don't know him from Parliament? No, I don't know anything about Guy Fox.

I thought he is a dumb hat on that photo you post. I think he tried to blow up Parliament and his name was Guido. Oh, we know kind of the plot for V for Vendetta. Wait, is V for Vendetta just the Guy Fox story told in a I've never seen V for Vendetta just the Guy Fawkes story told in a... I've never seen V for Vendetta. I just know... Has Hugo Weaving in it? And I think it's Matrix-y maybe? Natalie Portman?

Is she in it? It's the Matrix? I feel like for some reason, maybe it's just because Hugo Weaving is in it and I was a kid when I saw it. I associate it with the Matrix for some reason. Does Guy Fawkes get hung, drawn and caught at the end? I don't remember anything about it outside of he has these knives he throws. And there's something about remembering the fifth of November or December.

Or that's one of the ways he's going to get his knives sharpened. Run for a big get dull. Remember the fifth of November or December or it's one of the birds. Yeah, in England, we have Guy Fawkes night on the fifth of November, and that's when we do our fireworks and we have a bonfire. We sometimes chuck a guy folks dummy onto it. Was Guy Fawkes a knife guy? Because he was in the comic.

I feel like he's throwing a lot of knives around. How do you spell Guy Fawkes, Andrew? G-U-I-F-A-W-K-E-S. One day you should learn about the gunpowder plot. The gunpowder plot? Yeah. Do you remember Lord of the Rings, or not Lord of the Rings, do you remember, do you remember King's Landing when they had all the dragons fire under under all of King's Landing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

Here they should be able to catch you so if you want to Eric just posted a photo gunpowder plot or a brief account of the bloody and feudal Defined laid against the king his lords and commons in Parliament and a happy deliverance by divine power Okay, so guy praying at a window with the minister. I don't I left minister, which then a woman praying and I can't read the bottom part of the text because it is small on my screen. So it's just a bunch of I don't know what I was supposed to learn from that.

They're praying. Yeah, they're praying. They're praying for gunpowder. Why do they need gunpowder for the plot? To enact to enact the plot was the matrix part of the Guy Fox movie. V for can someone look that up was V for Vendetta tied to the matrix. Nobody nobody has to look it up No, yeah, nobody nobody's no I think it the matrix people though the the Wachowski's I think were involved were they not Was it not produced by the people do you?

Had to get into the matrix well I feel like in the trailer You know like when you saw the greatest showman trailer they're like from the lyricist of la la land It's like it's not related, but like they're promoting the greatest showman trailer, they're like from the lyricist of La La Land. It's like it's not related, but like they're promoting the other works of the connected in the sense that Hugo Weaving is a big part of both. It's related. I wonder if it's just that I need to know. And it's all Google and I'll search it up. V for Vendetta and Lord of the Rings, part of the Matrix universe. No, Peter Jackson has no involvement, But Hugo Weaving was in both.

Oh, you what? Oh, yeah, he's the elf guy. He's Elrond. Elrond the elf guy. I was thinking about this recently where I like when characters are way more famous than the actor playing them. Like this guy, he could say he could genuinely say to people, oh, yeah, I was in I was in Lord of the Rings and You'd be like huh? Who who do you play and that he could just say? the ring

What? Cool you're the ring from Lord of the Rings, but an unassuming face Yeah, he doesn't look like a ring at all. I mean he's in a circle, but that's different. Does he sound like the ring sounds normally? Is he like whispering? He's got three voices layered over. Oh, he probably doesn't. He's a ghost. My mom thought that we were getting our house invaded when I was a kid because I got really into Lord of the Rings action figures as like the thing I collected and I had this Sauron one that had a voice box in it. And I played with them in the tub.

All my Lord of Rings figures. And it it made the Sauron go off one day like she was cleaning in a room. And she could just hear this faint like the darkness is coming thing. And she's like, what? What? And then just like a few minutes later, he's like, oh, the death comes closer. And it freaked her out. And that was the end of my Lord of the Rings toys.

And that really relocated binned. Maybe Soran got thrown away. I don't I don't remember. I just remember it was a big deal that Soran started talking by himself because I got him wet and Say menacing things Well, he's got an eye made of fire. I see V for Vendetta the film written by the Wachowskis. I am not insane Wow He's related Thank you

Anything to do with the matrix they made the matrix I bet you if we were to watch a trailer for V for Vendetta right now, I bet you it says from the people that brought you the Matrix. David Lynch made Eraserhead and Dune. Do you think those things had anything to do with each other? They promoted them that way. Maybe. Didn't he do Elephant Man as well? Yeah, of course he did.

But nominated for like eight Academy Awards for Elephant Man. How did they get the massive Sauron Eye up on that thing hoist Like we was the foreman it was the tower already there and there was some guys still in the roof going like all right This is where I'll put the eye but how did it? Does it explain that in the book have you ever read the book? You gotta read this Simmerillion or whatever it's called It's not a physical eye

What do you mean? It's not an eye I felt like it was a projection like it was like a hologram of an eye. I think so. Yeah So where where's where do they put the 4k projector? It's gotta be close. Was it like Disney where they just hide projectors all over the I think it's more likely than there's a giant Eye, I thought it was a giant eye. They knocked the building down the kill the eye Maybe you're right. I'm not an expert on Lord of the Rings. Yeah, they put it up a tower I think so it could see I think if it was just a hologram of an eye What and they just put it in a room when they just project it on a couch?

Mmm, cuz they wanted it to see I got a pretty how can a projection see? Yeah, I don't know. There's fucking orcs. There's elves. There's bread that you take a little bite of and it fills you up. You're going to you're going to use you're going to use lampest bread and orcs and elks. I'm going to say that it's a fantasy world. In a fantasy world, I think it's just as plausible. It was a real giant eye up there as anything else.

Yeah, I thought you just didn't have like a physical form I mean even when he's fighting at the beginning, he's not you can't see Sauron. You just see his armor. That's true I just assumed it. Well, there's a guy in a suit, right? I Don't think there's a natural physical body. Sauron isn't was never first. I thought he was in the suit Oh, yeah, if he was maybe that's what he wants you to think Andrew There are people that have all these answers that are really into this that are pulling their hair out listening does talk about that I mean to be fair. He was wearing a ring that makes other people invisible. Maybe it just made him invisible Hmm

It's good point Nick's pretending that he doesn't know the answers to this stuff. Yeah, Phyllis No, I don't know. I Couldn't tell you I think Sauron used to be a physical person and then became some manifestation of evil and then Became you can watch the Rings of Power on Amazon they go into the the prequel the before I think it's that slew of shit though isn't it a bunch of made-up shit I watched the first couple of says and they're pretty good I gotta give us made up. I think it was mostly about saruman though not sarum my favorite episode of The rings of power show is when they're trying to bring the eye up in the hallways too narrow Like six orks holding it should I get it yeah, they're trying to get up the staircase cuz it's the new eye

That guy who comes and saws it in half to fit it up the stairs when he reads it when it's at the top Yeah Like sofas in New York City I do really like prequel stories where they show the Like in Better Call Saul There's a whole bit where they're like Digging the lab And it's cool to see like the origin story of a room

And I would love that for Lord of the Rings Just for that tower. I hope we can give that to you someday, Gavin. I don't think we can. Who owns is that Warner or who owns Lord of the Rings at this point? Is it Amazon? I think. OK, I think that there is like some dispute over who owns what. I think some people own some and other people own others. And yeah, I think so. Hey so hey guys can I see you as an

unrelated to Lord of the Rings question of course yeah I was watching sports last night right as I do I was watching my Celtics play the Clippers in in Los Angeles and of course we won almost blew it had to go to overtime no fucking reason other than just sloppy play thank Thank Christ we won. However, I'm watching the game and after about five minutes, there's a guy on the Clippers who's playing out of his mind. His name is Derek Jones Jr. And I'm tangentially aware of Derek Jones Jr. as a role filler on teams around the NBA for a while. He's not a superstar, he's not an all-star and no danger of becoming any of those things. He's probably a bench player most of the time.

And he's playing because on the bench is Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. And they're sitting on the bench in their street clothes and just watching the game, you know, just fucking courtside in their street clothes because they're not playing. And I got to thinking about how much money those two seats were taking up.

And so I looked it up. James Harden and Kawhi Leonard, I think combined to make about $94 million this year for the Clippers. And I looked up that guy, Derek Jones Jr. who scored 17 points in the first quarter, which is huge. He only went on to score 20 in the game, but he scored 17 points in the first quarter. He makes huge. He only went on to score 20 in the game, but he scored 17 points in the first quarter.

He makes about $3 million a year. My question to you guys is, oh, also, not only were Kawhi and James Harden in street clothes on the bench, they were sitting next to the coach. They took the good seats on the bench. The players who were playing the game were further down the bench, further away.

And that got me just thinking, does a guy like Derek Jones fucking hate Kawhi Leonard and James Harden for like getting to basically show up at work in street clothes and eat popcorn and watch him bust his ass while they make a hundred times a year more than he makes? I feel like you're describing every business ever from like the CEO to like the people working down. Well, I mean, that's not even I mean, if we're going to talk about every business there, then the owner is fucking laughing at James Harden and Kauai Leonard right

now because he's making hundreds of millions of dollars an hour. But it's just like it's so crazy to see the disparity where they do the same job. They're on the same court at the same time in theory. But the not only is the disparity, because I understand that the talent dictates where money goes, but it's just crazy to me that you can be you can make that much more with and have zero availability. Like you're just like, I'm not I'm quite Leonard. I played 20 games in the last three years, but I'm still going to go to every game

in my street clothes, get my free sodas and make like 50 million dollars a year for being like a vibes dude, I guess, at this point. It's just I know it's just like a legacy. Well, he doesn't really have a legacy in that arena or with that team because he's been hurt since he got signed to them. He has a legacy from two previous teams, but that doesn't travel to the new team where he's done nothing for them. I just like it's just crazy to see it on display.

And it makes me wonder is like Derek Jones happy that they're proud of them because he's balling out and they're like rooting them on Or is he like, then fuck you man. I'm out here sweating my fucking ass off and you're making more money watching me play than I'm making playing right now because you can't be bothered to put the fucking uniform on. Is that why they're not playing? Uh, I mean. Yeah, right. Is that right? Kawhi Leonard should retire if he can't play basketball. Kawhi Leonard should retire.

I agree. I don't know that they're out there doing the same job. I also think no one of them is doing a job and the other one isn't doing a job at all. Junior, I think Derek Jones Jr. is probably stoked to be on a team with Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. Why? He's never going to play with Kawhi Leonard.

Two guys who are going to sit and so he gets minutes because he's not somewhere else. I guess if he's going to play somewhere, it's here or the G League. By the way, James Harden was out with groin soreness. Is he like cranking off too hard or like what happened? Yeah, like he pulled a muscle banging somebody until he can't play. Yeah, he pulled that muscle real hard.

We're gonna need to have somebody sub in for me next week on the podcast. I understand people getting hurt. I understand injuries are a thing. It's just crazy. I just I just wonder if I'm Derek Jones Jr. in that moment, I'm just like, man, fuck these guys don't root for me. Think about though, in the context of like coaches or like even hockey,

they have buyouts. The premise of like you're so not wanted that we will pay you to leave. Like, we'll just pay out the rest of your contract to go. Yeah, that's a great way to make money in we'll just pay out the rest of your contract to go. Yeah. That's a whole other level in the NBA. And now here's two things. And here's why I get the point that you're making. There's a reason when you go to awards for Kawhi Leonard and you see a fourth and rookie of the year defensive player of the year twice all all-star, and then you look at Derek Jones Jr. in his award sections, real blank, all the way down.

I think that's why. When was the last time, when was the last time Kawhi Leonard won one of those awards? Once you pop up the last year that was. It's like two seasons ago. So what I'm saying is that I think Derek Jones Jr. is just fine being the role player that he is on that team. I think he's totally fine with it. I think he's so

fine with making $3 million to go out there and put up 17. Yeah, I guess. And unless you're in a situation like the Clippers are going to be in, where they're going to have to move parts to try to compete in some way and they're not going to move Kawhi or James Harden. So everybody on that team who's busting their ass right now becomes trade fodder. It's what the Lakers have done the last five years in a row and they can't build any kind of cohesion or team loyalty because everybody is expendable but two people

and those two people want to win today and so they just don't give a fuck about the other people around them. I just, it's just weird to me. It's just weird to me that I haven't seen Kauai Leonard play suit up and play basketball more than three games in the last however many years, but he's still he's taken up a 50 million dollar spot on a bench.

It's just wild. It is like a weird thing. Think about like money, not money spent not being used in the way it's intended. But I also feel like that sports like I feel like the ideal trajectory of an athlete. It's sports now. It didn't used to be that way. Sure. Yeah, that that's I had this conversation with friends the other day where they were like,

why are there TV shows like Ballers and Arliss in like the 2000s? And it's like, oh, because money came into sports in the 80s. In the 90s, like we, we just throw our arms up and say, oh, that's just the way things are now, but they're, that's just, I'm not gonna change anything. I don't know what I would change. I just, it's just wild to me to see it and to think about it from those terms.

Like these dudes are not that different in terms of ability. Sure. Like when you're at the point where you're an NBA player, the difference between the best NBA player on the court and the worst NBA player is fractional. It really is like once you're like one of the top four or 500 people in the world that do in this thing, it's like that. I think I think that the scale is the notches on the scale are so minute.

And it's just crazy to think that those dudes both are almost exactly as good at basketball as each other. But one of them is playing and making one hundredth of what the other guy is. Do you think when we do the drafts for sports improvements, you can bring something to the table that would fix that problem? I think I didn't think of the sports drafts in that way, but I'm going to go back and reevaluate. I've been in the lab.

Had a little bit of lab time today. You want to see? Yeah. Yes. An unassuming folder. Files for jobs number one. What is this? Do you know what that is? No. It's a bog roll folder. It's a freaking bog roll folder. I thought it was for, I thought it was files for this and for slow mo guys. Hahahaha! Wow. I crammed a whole bug roll in there. Oh! Did you have any other photos? Wow! That's pretty...

That's a lot of bog. How many sheets is he... How big is each individual portion? I don't know. I just kind of unroll it and split into quarters. And unfortunately, it's intended purpose. An entire bog roll will not fit under the door. Oh, no. To my bog. So I think it's it's going to be good for maybe a quarter of a bog roll.

It's like an emergency single wipe or single session. Have you thought about doing a filing cabinet of bog roll folders? Well, a whole cabinet of just full of them. Yeah. Do you think if you filled a cabinet with bog roll folders, you could only pull from the cabinet for a year? Oh, yeah. You think you can make it a year? How many sessions is one bog roll? I don't know. I think it depends on you.

Like 10, maybe. Yeah, it doesn't come down to how much paper you use per bathroom usage and then how many folders could fit into a cabinet. I feel like this would be a more efficient way to store toilet paper, though. It's not more convenient, but you don't have the air gap hmm I Really like it's it's more efficient. It's not more convenient You know the nice thing about it too is a lot of people have

Magazine racks in their bathroom. You know or they have yeah You just slap it in there, and it's super unassuming You know that's this also sets up for like a wacky sitcom world where you go to your big business meeting and oh no You grab the bog roll folder instead of the pitch deck and somebody's taking a shit with your tbs report. Yep Yep, yep, yep, someone's wiping print a toner all over the a I love it Gavin. I'd love to see the slim down version the Bog slim yeah, I'll try and work on a version that will slip under the door. That's a great product Maybe you just flatten it more stomp on it. You got any other lab work uh No, do you

Funny you should ask I've also been in the lab. Thanks Jeff is in the lab. I was in the lab. Let me here. Let me I've also been in the lab. Thanks Jeff is in the lab. I was in the lab. Let me uh here. Let me Share my camera with you guys, right? What the fuck we're gonna camera shit Yeah, so I have also been in the lab I don't know if you you remember, but last week we were talking about the idea of turduckening fruit a little bit. Oh, yeah. And so I went to I went to H.E.B. and which, by the way, got voted. I just read the best grocery store in America in twenty three.

Really? Good for you. I was going to bring that up on a slightly different subject down the road. But I went ahead and I got a bunch of the fruits we discussed and then some additional fruits and I made some combinations I don't know which one we should remember was was shapes Which is what a cherry and a grape together? I mean, that's what that burlesque lady did down the pole I present to you the shape One half cherry one half great. It's got a little hat. It looks like toad from Mario or something.

I hollowed that out. But it's still the cherry stem. Oh, it's like a little locking system. Yeah, locked together. Well, let's try it. See how it is. I haven't eaten any. Those review. Perfect.

Be careful with the seed in there. And get rid of it. Oh, wow. What's the thought? Interesting. It's almost as if the two flavors cancel each other. I was going to say, I bet they're so sweet or so tart that you're kind of getting like neither very big. But but I'm not done.

There's a lot of things that you can turduck in. For instance, what if you hollowed out a grape and stuck blueberries in it? Looks like a tiny cocktail. It's a whiteberry. Oh. That good? That's better. That's the best one yet.

OK. But not to be outdone, I've also got a cherry and a grape this way. Oh, no, I'm sorry. This is a cranberry. This is a cranberry. It's not cherry. Cranberry. What's the name of that one? This will be good. This is a crepe. Crate. Oh, no. I'm sorry. This is a cranberry. This is a cranberry. It's not cherry Good this is

Crepe Crepe But like there's one is so astringent and the other one's a grape Don't recommend that okay If you're listening Jeff leaned away after he took a bite of that one here. We have a blueberry cranberry combo Away after he took a bite of that one here. We have a blueberry cranberry combo Not good That's really baby raspberry cranberry Good that was not raspberry is not good

Let's try this let's get the move away from grapes for a minute. You don't even have a palate cleanser. How about a? There you go there, how about a blueberry cherry combo that's pretty I bet that one's good. Yeah, it's probably good Second best so far not the best,. Going back to going back to grapes. Just for a minute. These are green grapes for those listening. These are green grapes. Yeah, I want to go with the red grape. Video version available on Patreon and YouTube.

What about a grape and a strawberry? That looks real dumb. There's something so disturbing about how they're just sat and swung at each other. Now, that's actually pretty good. Strawberry grape might be the best one so far. OK, straight. Then I wanted to move bananas into the mix, and I had this whole idea of hollowing a banana out and filling it with blueberries.

But my bananas are too crooked and weren't big enough, so I was only able to make this. A banana with a strawberry hat. Come on. You made a Red Rocket fruit. Oh! That looks like, that looks like if you uncircumcise the droop snoot. Oh, boy.

It's a fruit snoot. Oh, it's an STD on a droop snoop. I see why people drink banana strawberry. That's good. That's real good. on a droop snoop. I see why people drink drink banana strawberry. That's good. That's real good. That'd be good pairing. I'd like to see that with a blueberry on the tip of the strawberry. Oh, then I made I thought what we're doing is having a little finger food. What if we made an actual sandwich?

So what I've done is I took and I made the bread two slices of strawberry and then on top of it. I sliced as the meat and the cheese cherry great so good cranberry and blueberry Like sort of a big Mac as it weren't great Believe That just a lot of flavors that like a Hawaiian punch like a fruit punch like yeah Explosion of flavors in your mouth. Yeah, and then last but not least the official the one that started it all the cherry to the grape

to the raspberry to the blueberry the full deal The fruit turducken that looks like it to give you extra agility in a shooter. Oh the fruit turducken that looks like it'd give you extra agility in a shooter oh oh he struck he doesn't like it no good not a fan by far the worst one the fruits and pole was the last one that was not great that was great all right yeah so there we have there's our lab results whatever whatever whatever the second thing I had was the best thing. What do you think that stack at the end? Not any good? Cranberry didn't know there was no cranberry in it. Raspberry didn't help.

Yeah. OK. Yeah, I feel like raspberries. I was very conflicted with a lot of those other flavors. Oh, I want to get into that. I want to get into the same lab. I might come up with some stuff for next week. You should. You should. It's a lot of fun. You know what else is a lot of fun? Drinking stuff out of a gurgler. Oh, we got Gert Nils.

Bring on the guppies. There are some Gert Nils. Jeff, Eric, you want to lead? Oh, you're doing you're doing such a good job right now, Andrew. Yeah, I am. So I'm passing the torch before I fumble it. Thanks for passing the torch to me. I'll pick that torch up and I'll I'll I'll shine it high into the darkness to light the world to let them know that the gherpler is coming. Yes

That's right the month of February there will be additional gherplers. Hold on. Let me hold the light I'm gonna show a little bit higher Few more people in the back and see that's something Can you see the date it's right there? It's February, but it's two days two digits. That's right. can you see the date it's right there it's February but it's two digits that's right you can see the date it's definitely two did first it's a one first it's a one it's gonna be easy to figure out the second cuz they're only you get some sticks on it except there's gonna be a range February 14th for me 14th the Gerbler will launch it's happy girl times day relaunch our gift to you is a shot at one of five

Thousand gurglers that will be launching at noon on February 14th. That's right Valentine's Day is now girl times day We are taking it over Don Valentine better come and talk to me. I'll set him straight. It's our day now motherfuckers celebrate Better come and talk to me. I'll set him straight. It's our day now motherfuckers celebrate Celebrate Gurpaltine's day with us. We're gonna be playing Mario party jamboree. I believe over on the twin celebrating the launch of Gurpaltine's day now to take it back to where this all begun obviously we sold our first Black Gurpaler and we ordered more of those than any other we've had before. And they sold out instantly to our surprise. People were understandably, I really want to one that's disappointing.

So we immediately ordered five thousand more. And the hope is that everyone that want to one will now be able to get one. We've been waiting ever since that last stream to get these. They're finally arriving. It takes a while for them to be made and then shipped and then get everything All worked out, but they are going to be here February 14th, and we're streaming it and if for some reason they sell out we will buy more yes There's I mean zero chance can't we just do a different can we do a different gherpler do we have to do?

Yeah, we can do a different gherpler. Okay. Let's say this this is it for this gherpler that GERPLER? Do we have to do the same one? Yeah, we can do a different GERPLER. Okay, let's just say this. This is it for this GERPLER. 9,000 of this design is enough. For now. Maybe, who knows, we reserve the right to bring back old styles, blah blah blah. I want to move on to a different look. I think we've had so many cool ideas. I want to move on to a different look of GERPLERS. I want to see what kind of GERPLER a guy like GERPL Joe would drink out of. Who's GERPL Joe?

A mysterious figure, that's for sure. Have you seen GERPLER? Have? I don't I don't I don't know anyway. It'll be out at noon on Regulation store calm it'll be noon central But we'll be live on twitch.tv slash the regulation pod a little before noon to celebrate the launch and then playing What was that? What did Jeff keep calling Mario Party? Mario party Jubilee Jubilee He kept calling it Mario Party Jubilee Jubilee I think it'd be sick if we actually had some gop lers left in the store after the awesome be amazing

Now are you saying sick good or sick bad because depending on the community sick good could be good. That's true Poker terms or what? All in. That was so sick, Gavin. Wow, you did it. I'm excited about these. I'm excited about the next Gurpelers that we're doing and some more merch that we have coming probably around May.

May, yeah. A new revolutionary shirt and some things that you can wave high and proud. Yeah, a new a new revolutionary shirt and Some things that you can wave high and proud, but we'll see that that's for future But for right now Valentine's Day gropal gropal I got a good time times gropal tines day February 14th at noon central will you says the other gropal tine? like a giant black cup?

I told you we could go with a second idea. Didn't have to be that still. I just what are some of the other hearts say? Kerpl Kerpl heart. Not Kerpl. Valentine's. Be mine. Be my girl.

Let's see. Let's workshop this right now. Okay. Kerpl me, baby. Yeah, you're your gurp. Oh, uh, gurp. Gurp. Gurp. Gurp. Gurp. Uh, he's not herpes.

Uh, love you. Uh, Gurp. Yeah. Look, little Gurp. Yeah. Gurp me. I don't like when he says that. I don't like the way he says it. I don't like when he says that. I don't like the way he says it.

I don't like what it's implied. I don't like it. Uh, be mine. And then you can flip it on the other side and it says Gurpler. Oh, double sided heart. Because most hearts have two sides. So are we just going to Photoshop a little Gurpul love heart banner thing? Sure. I don't know. Yeah, are you? Sure, I don't know. You just read them all out like we're gonna use this somewhere.

No, I just go I was curious what they I was trying to figure out what the best variation would be it's tough There's not a lot of natural Bunch of X's and O's on it. I don't know how we yeah, no What did you say Gurpultines? Let's go with that. That was the best It's Eric was pretty insistent. We use Gurpaltine and I want to know. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

Yeah, unfortunately DJ how it goes with this show it I realized the other day that the a lot of the regulation audience views my career as being in a much different phase that it used to be because we put out the Agility tube video for what was that for box standard? Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, sorry box standard and uh

People people seem to really like it like the video It's just a lot of comments on it. It's where people are like guys at your age, you should really be warming up first. You should really be stretching. And I've never had those comments before. It's true. I was in so much pain after that. It was for, sorry, just a correction. It was for extra medium and above it's on Patreon. You can watch it over there and you're right, because the thing that, when I rewatched it, when you get halfway through that tube and you're like, you're not even like yelling, you're like howling. It's like, it's not good. It's like very hurt by what you're going through. MW It looks like one of those beat up tube things you'd have at school that you'd make with what was that called?

Like you and a beat up tube. It wasn't a tube. It was people like you'd have like 20 people, like 10 people on each side and they'd be holding arms and then people have to run under through the tunnel while everyone's kicking you. Did you not play that? That sounds like you're getting jumped into a gang, dude. Keep explaining how you got initiated into your violence gang, please.

And you come out all kicked and bruised. Are you OK? And then everybody hugs you and they say you're a member of the family for life. Something like that. Vatos Locos, yeah. what was the name of this Chicago shootout? Okay? My wife's friend Was like oh, yeah, Chicago shootout. I remember that and I think my wife paid her off. I don't think

Michaela I don't believe you. I'm just letting you know. I don't remember. 100%. Yeah, I think. Yeah, that's a lot of bucks. Michaela, I don't believe you. I'm just letting you know. I don't remember what that game was called or whether it had a name. I remember how it felt. But if there's anyone in the audience who also played Run Through the Hurt Tunnel, let me know.

But anyway, that's what I sounded like. That's what Jeremy Renderman wasn't. When I went through the agility shoot. We used to play Red Rover when we were kids. It sounds like you played Red Dead Rover. Yeah Red Rover was violent too, wasn't it? You get people clothesline. Yeah, yeah, of course. Mm-hmm Be remissed if we didn't bring it up, but we were getting on towards time So I do want to hit it now that we've covered sort of like gurgler stuff and everything. Do you guys squinkle or what? Yeah, oh, yeah, I squinkle or what? Oh, yeah

I got my squinks. Oh, we got squink squinkin boys swings So this is our wrinkles because we saw the squinkles chunks at that airport in Cancun I went to the Hispanic grocery store by down the road Just to see if I could get squiggles chunks. But they had the exact same squinkles offering as H.E.B. Once again, H.E.B. is the best. So I have here Lucas Squink Lotte and then I have Squinkles Salsaghetti. I got Squinkles Salsaghetti. What did you get, Gavin?

I have no squinkles. What? OK, so we have to not squink. All right. Let's wait to squink with. Yeah, enough on the squink. We will. We will. We will have to not squink. All right. We'll have to wait to squink with Gavin. Yeah, holding off on the squink. Yep. We will. We will. We will have to future squink. Sorry. No, you can squink and then I'll squink. Like maybe I'll come back squink.

Some squink squink. I think we do a big squink together. We already did. We had two lab sessions in this episode. We can squink. We do. Oh, speaking of stuff related to this podcast. Hey, speaking of stuff. I owe you guys Eric and Andrew vinyls. I don't remember why, but it's in my notes

that I owed you both vinyls. So Andrew, I mailed you a vinyl yesterday and Eric, I bought you one. It's in my house, I'll give it to you next time I see you. I'll give it to you tomorrow. I'll see you tomorrow. Yeah, yeah, easy. Cool.

I'm excited. Another thing that I'm excited about actually is the Falcon Tier thing. At the time of this recording, a little bit later today, we're doing a Falcon Tier watch along that finally pays off. Uh, yeah, we are doing a mouse hunt watch along. If you become a Falcon, you'll be able to watch it later at the time this is coming out. You've missed it by a week. Sorry, but you'll be able to watch it later over on Patreon. So Andrew had all the rest of the four of us pick a movie. Is that right? And then what happened? Then the Falcons voted. Yep. And they picked a mouse on the second most popular was a snake ice. Of course. I couldn't believe it lost.

Like what was the other crazy. I like, so I'm going to go in order of what I think the spirit of because I went with Blast, the Eddie Griffin Breckenmire action movie that I thought was very cool. Yeah, makes sense. Then Eric went with Snake Eyes. Makes sense. I think also kind of related to the show as bit Gavin went with Snake Eyes. Makes sense, I think also kind of related to the show as bit. Gavin went with Mouse Hunt.

That was your parents. That was a great movie. Jeff went with Super Futs. I believe also also makes sense. I've mentioned it a few times around the time we picked Condor Man. That was the other movie I wanted to pick. I'm still going to make you guys watch it at some point. And Nick went with Air Force One.

Force One. He's like, I And Nick went with Air Force One. Air Force One? Nick's like, I just wanna watch Air Force One. When have we talked about Air Force One? Any time I drafted. Nick is a huge Air Force One fan. I drafted all the time. You dropped it all the time? You dropped it twice?

It was in a draft and then the rancor. Like we're all kind of picking like campy, like kind of group watch movies. And I just love that. Nick's is like, no, of course, one, let's get everybody together. I was on some Air Force one. You asked me what movie I wanted to watch with the Falcon. Yeah, I know. I love it.

I think it's a great pick. So which one I want to watch, which one was least voted for blast. My pick, Eddie Griffin, Rick and Myron Blast had the lowest percentage of us. How about that? That's crazy. Don't realize talked about the longest to go lowest percentage of us. How about that? That's crazy. I just don't realize talked about the longest ago of all of them. And it's you know what? I would argue it would be one of the most fun watches that we could do.

We're playing soccer in the hood now and he bicycle kicks a grenade. It's great. Also, just the embarrassment. There is an action scene in it that I watched later in life that I remember as a child watching it going, that was so fucking cool. And then watching it as an adult going, it's maybe the most embarrassed I've ever been about anything.

That was a terrible scene. I think that's the kind of context the audience needs before casting a vote. It's like we all need 20 seconds to prevent to present our choice. I gave a little bit of context on each pick. That's but that's like, oh, but that's tough because I, I agree with you, Gavin. But I also think that that's going to sway. Did you did you say who picked what? I don't think I said maybe I don't remember.

But I definitely put flavor in for all the picks of. Yeah, I think I think. This is why. I think us, cause I want to make an effort of like, here's why we should watch it. And we each do it like a little 22nd blurb, but then I think people won't vote for the movie they'll vote for the person who picked it. And, and, and I think, I think voting for the movie, there's a spirit to this thing, Gavin. And I think that's why we just think if you present your movie, no one will pick it. I think they'll look at me picking a movie versus you picking a movie and pick the movie that you picked versus the movie that I picked.

Yes. Do I think that? Yeah, I know that. Absolutely. Okay. Well, okay. What if you still don't know who picked what and one person delivers all of the reasoning and context behind the picks? Sure. I mean, yeah, yeah, we can do that. I don't think there's a problem with that. I just think. Yeah, exactly. You know, keeping it anonymous I think is very important. Look at this poster. V for Vendetta. An uncompromising vision of the future from the creators of the Matrix trilogy. Right. Of course. I see this movie. Is it good? I don't think so. I don't think it was.

I have zero memory. It sucked. I think it's like that, like 2008. Good. You know what I mean? Like it's like it wasn't, though. It was. Pushing 73 percent of Rotten Tomatoes. mean? Like it's like it wasn't though. It was sad. What a shame. Seventy three percent of Rot Tomatoes, a lot higher. Eight point one on IMDB.

People seem to like it. Stupid hat. Stupid movie. It was all it was just like a JVC ad. Everything was like a JVC computer TV. Heavy product placement throughout the whole fucking film. Yeah, that's what I remember about it. Oh, I love that clip of David Lynch talking about product placement throughout the whole fucking film, yeah. That's what I remember about it. Oh, I love that clip of David Lynch talking about product placement in movies. It's so funny.

So, if, is Grinch part of the Minions universe? No, but I was explaining why it makes sense that I affiliate V for Vendetta with The Matrix. Affili affiliate or associate You know I think you can pick. It's you know we live in a free country. Yeah Yeah, I mean he's he's wrong either way so whichever way you want to ascribe that you go for it One affiliate is what you get on twitch You start as an affiliate. I'm a partner, so I wouldn't know anything about that.

Fucking brag about it. Yes, what I was just doing. What a freak. Associated someone who sells you something. Like a sales associate. That is something that is that's one of the definitions of

associate associate is that is that word associate is a different word But that's and you know and what does that spell?
