Eric's God, Claire's God.
What's important is...
Get my jug of water.
At least two of us need to be here.
It doesn't matter.
It's not a podcast.
None of it really matters.
After that, it's a transmission.
Just a monologue.
If anyone's out there, there's crazy stuff online.
It's just a fireside chat.
Oh, that's nice.
Two fellas.
Updates on the war.
Going good.
You guys got me checking to see if I still have my Quora account.
Oh, yes.
Oh, shit.
find that now we thought we ran into your quora account organically right people were mad at us
yeah that was no that was just um a really enterprising student of mine
it was a copycat dude i still have my account this is nice tennessee jack oh nice that's a
great name we're we're alberto mysterio on quora they sound like cousins yes we were just my name
and a picture of me
until we thought about
how much we make fun
of other people
doing that.
Yeah.
I was going to say
they sound like
pool shark names.
Yeah,
they're good names.
It's a website.
It's a website.
Tennessee Jack.
All right,
we're starting the show.
Please dance to the song.
Hit the theme song.
Oh, dude,
you're really good.
All right.
And with the sound of the robot, you're back again on Quarators, America's premier Quora-based podcast.
Hello.
How's it going?
I am well.
And you?
I'm pretty good.
And Claire?
Pretty good.
Everyone's pretty good.
Everyone's pretty good on this podcast.
Now to start the show, we have the Quarators weather report.
Today, it's great.
It's nice.
You could maybe wear a hat.
It's pretty nice outside.
Is it good in L.A.?
It was cold yesterday.
Yeah, it's cold in LA?
No, it's cold over at your place.
Oh, that's true.
It was.
I don't know how you found out about that, because you're pretty far away.
Yeah, we're not really spreading that info.
People are telling me.
Don't speak for New York being cold.
It gets so boring over here that we have to check the weather on the East Coast.
Right.
Truly.
Oh, I'm so sick of it.
Perfect every day.
There's no variety.
Am I on screen right now?
You are on screen.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, maybe I'm off screen.
We're not recording any of this.
I'm just your co-host now.
We don't do a professional podcast thing
where we have people brought in or anything like that.
We kind of just go off.
That's perfect.
We do the weather report, and then they are introduced.
That's so you know what to wear.
This will come out in two weeks.
Just over here picking my nose.
Hey, what's the weather like in there?
In your nose?
Dry.
wonderful horribly dry to dry heat now that you know what to wear we have a fantastic guest for
you today here on uh the quora podcast and you're gonna love to have him here he is the host of the
internet comment etiquette show live on youtube.com you're going to love eric eric welcome to the show
what's up everybody thanks for having me i'm very excited to jump into some questions on quora
now eric it's my understanding that you've been on quora before yeah you know uh at first it was
yahoo answers that's what really you know that's when i i got the bug to to go in and answer
questions for people um i think it's an amazing place you know it's rare that we see something
so unfiltered straight from the mind of a normal everyday person it feels more organic that way
and that less people are putting up walls and they're letting you into their medical diagnosis
that they have with their name and their job where they work i'm trying to think of a good segue into
our topic for the day well i want to say real quick eric the reason i wanted to have you on
is that we came across what we thought was one of your comments and i got like 100 dms from people
because we were like look at this dumb ass and then they're like this is actually a funny youtuber
it's being funny you said it wasn't you if it wasn't me maybe it was a dumb ass i don't know
maybe it was what i do know is that they um they did a pretty good job if you're pretending to be
Eric Online, you're acting a fool right now.
You need to let it out.
I don't know if I can, you know, that might actually get in the way
of my educational syllabus a little bit.
Because you kind of have to fake it until you make it.
You know, you've got to copy something that you like,
and then you, from there, form your own interpretation of it.
And it becomes something that you do.
You form your own Quora account.
Exactly.
You know, maybe there's a Louisiana Jack out there.
oh i remember what i was going to say to you at the start of this show is that
watching your show it's so interesting because you have like a good youtube channel
we do sort of a worse version of that this is a podcast so like i was struck watching your show
being like all of the parts that are not entertaining are cut out right away and it's
just hit after hit until the video ends yeah when when people uh ask me anything about what i do i
I tell them, as long as you can edit yourself, it can't be bad unless you just, you know.
The worst case scenario, you just don't put it up.
I don't think you guys suffer from that, you know.
Appreciate the flattery, and here's some right back.
I think this is a wonderful idea for a show.
I think it's going to go 100 seasons.
I think it will, too.
We're on season six.
I'm going to be seeing you guys on at least Hulu.
when hulu gets their own competitive competing podcast division like that yeah that's right
hulu would just steal it from you yeah i think we should sort of go like the british series route
okay and yeah and after a certain time talks about how good it was right right they have an
accomplished mission statement that they they get through and then it's done if you're ready for
jimmy carr to take over the show then that would work yeah i'm out of things to say pretty much
he's too woke
sort of a hold no bars
agreed uh well that is a seamless segue into our theme for the day which is of course
manliness and all of the that's right toxic testosterone online we like to begin by going
to a community on the website.
Every week, we go to a Quora space
in our original segment, Space of the Week.
Space of the Week.
We're here on Alpha Male.
Alphamale.quora.com, a place for people
who know who they are, what they want,
and how to get it.
Big picture of a Spartan.
The fuck is this?
This is Alpha Male.
okay eric this is alpha male there's 51 contributors and 216 000 followers which
on quora is massive yeah it's really big for quora most of the spaces have like 50 people
so this is actually incredible uh i didn't read the details but i was struck by like what's
actually in here because i thought it would be one thing and it seems to mostly be a woman
posting about her relationship yeah it's mostly this woman bell gayer and then a fifth of a
million people read it, I guess.
It's Geyer, actually.
Bel-a-ger.
Sorry, Bel-a-ger.
Does anyone else have any ideas about how you say
this lady's name?
It's definitely not an insult a bully said
to me as a child.
Bel-a-ger.
It would have been an Italian bully.
You are beautiful,
but so gay.
Give me your lunch money.
Man, the movie
3,300 really ruined a lot of people.
Yes, absolutely.
Myself included.
Well, now you're always in slow motion.
That's true.
So dehydrated after.
I wish I could speed up.
We're going to read the details of the space here.
Alpha male is back.
Here we'll look at leaders.
Trailblazers and those scrapping their way to the top.
The mission of this space is to provide a supportive environment
for the alpha males of Quora to grow and reach their full alpha potential.
we'd love to hear from you share your personal stories and any tips that you think might help
the community leave your discussion on politics race and religion outside no bullshit will be
tolerated thank you for your ongoing support of this space the best is yet to come now is it alpha
to leave politics race and religion outside because i feel like an alpha would go ahead
and discuss those things yeah i think so alphas love discussing race
they can do whatever they want they're at the top of the triangle alphas there's no rules for them
do you think that this like um is the place to be an alpha in a quora community i mean apparently
there's like 250 000 alphas in here or whatever 200 000 i have to say between reading this and
like street survival which is the place where everyone talks about if you could like fight
the peaky blinders there seems to be less alphas than normal although there's a guy
the bomb is a dubai real estate agent so that seems like an alpha to me
uh some example questions on here what is your opinion on how to strengthen a relationship
do you think love is something you build with the right person or something you just feel
instantly and why well as a beta i don't even know this is something i your heart
i don't have the right to speak on this uh but scroll down there was there i also really like
these space highlights don't hold back express yourself moments in time snapshots of history
and then murder stories.
That's pretty alpha, though.
Is there just a link to murder stories?
There's nothing more alpha than taking a life.
I was about to say,
it's the process of making someone a beta.
Violent deaths at the hand of another.
Wait, one other?
Just one?
Just one.
All right, we've left alpha male.
We're on murder stories now.
Sorry, we don't need to hang out too much on murder stories.
You should maybe come back to murder stories.
I'm very interested.
Follow this face.
by sex slave toy toy okay so every time we find someone really weird on this website we follow
them so this is uh sex slave toy toy uh i like to please it gives me pleasure that first question's
amazing uh this is from saturday so today's monday this is from two days ago have you ever
sucked a guy's dick to keep him from putting it in your ass because you don't like it in the ass
and sex slave toy toy says yes oh yes i'm seeing a pattern actually if you keep scrolling down it
seems like it's all very yes and yes yeah well they're kind of a toy they've taken their their
improv classes and they're using it to answer sex questions on quora um well it's interesting
that to them murder is kind of a sexual art i like this question it's just hello maybe it's
something they just like check out when they're working out or something you know that's true i
mean this is a great website to use casually because you always stumble on something new
this question my wife showed me pictures of cocks after every hit of meth what should i do
i don't know is it good or bad that's sissy hypno
i guess and it works
are they trying to get you to like meth more or less it's unclear unclear more information needed
Okay, we're stuck on sex, slave, toy, toy.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm going back to-
This place is alpha male.
Alpha male.
Yeah, this person doesn't seem like an alpha male
that we were just looking at.
No, and this is a safe space for alpha males.
Jeremy's always alphaing me on the podcast.
Shut up!
By going to sex, slave, toy, toy.
Oh, this was the other thing I thought was funny
is the only other post on here was a Michael J. Fox quote.
And he says-
He's kind of an alpha.
Yeah, he says,
with gratitude, optimism is sustainable.
If you find something to be grateful for, then you can find something to look forward
to and you carry on.
Where is your gratitude?
Alpha male.
None of these have any answers, huh?
No.
They're not really questions to answer, per se.
How do I get here?
We have to go to alphamale.quora.com.
You put alpha male on the Quora search and this one comes up and you slam it into the
dock as hell.
Wait, these two have answers.
Why don't old people give each other a company by dating and living together to avoid loneliness?
and what is more disgusting to see
than childbirth?
Why doesn't Alpha ask questions?
So we know he's not a doctor.
Oh, a child's death.
You're right, though.
A perfect answer
from Wilfred Ruck.
This guy tries to make it an abortion thing.
Oh, come on now.
Come on now.
Amalia Spartacus.
I think my favorite part of this
is just reading the names.
I thought about it for like three and a half years.
I think it's just the names.
She lives in Sparta, though.
She's for real.
Okay, that's fine.
I don't know.
So she's Alpha for real.
Her picture is a centurion.
I'm seeing a theme.
The bio is, I still have issues, Cora.
It does not let me answer.
I even have an email with this name, so my banks know it's me.
Great.
So if you ever wanted to know that.
Getting dogged by the mods.
All right, let's go to our first questions.
We got some good questions here today.
Okay, wait.
Real quick, though, on what is more disgusting to see than childbirth, this answer, the betrayal
of a close friend.
The smell of dead bodies, the abuse of a dog.
Those are the three answers.
Those are disgusting?
Yeah, the abuse of a dog is disgusting.
I agree.
Don't do that.
The betrayal of a close friend is considered gross?
It's more disgusting than childbirth.
I would say it's worse than childbirth.
Have any of you seen childbirth?
I've seen childbirth.
I've not.
There's a lot of blood.
Do you have any kids, Eric?
One sec, I'm just answering one of these guys' questions.
Oh, nice.
Wait, let me refresh and see it coming in real time.
All right, so let's see if that went through.
This is just a quick little check.
I don't think that worked.
I might be banned.
Yeah, I don't see it up here.
There are more answers down there.
You might have to get approved by the mods.
You might have to get approved by the mods.
Worth a shot.
Eric, this is a bad website.
Now I know I can stop fiddling with it.
You should know that this is a really bad website.
it just does not work jesus i don't know what's going on sorry there's just a bunch of really
disgusting photos uh eric i assume you posted something a comment about how uh betrayal from
a close friend is the worst thing or uh it was something where it's like how come when people
don't like you they get mad about how they don't like you and i responded saying i don't like them
just to see if it would work that is funny when you got to say it out loud it's usually a text
space thing when you see the name tennessee jack above a comment like that it's good stuff you
gotta do it in a voice i feel like do you have a voice in your head for tennessee jack uh yeah yeah
um it's not very good but it's it's like if i start doing it i'm just gonna be ranting about
new york i don't want to set you guys off that's fine we don't know how to make a salsa we have
questions we have a question related to that soon so it's fine let's let's move on all right perfect
let's do our real questions this is our um the quoker our incel and manosphere questions
an original song i wrote about being an incel okay this question is i'm a fairly liberal non-gay man
how can i survive physically in a western cowboy town where everyone is a tough guy
gotta suck your way through it pal show hole yeah why do they why do they say non-gay man what does
that what does that have to do with this well because that would be the obvious answer oh it's
either one or the other i see you just gay your way to the top some sort of broken situation in
a cowboy town right anyone fairly liberal probably wouldn't have to add that addendum to it right
they may be undercover here is a real possibility i do think this is written by a cowboy i think
this is a gay cowboy they have to survive physically in a western cowboy town so we
can assume like albuquerque i'm not exactly sure i'd love to see what the organic answers on this
are okay one from larry bahe read it who works at advanced micro devices you should approach it as
an opportunity to expand your comfort zone i was dropped as a canadian liberal into alabama i
learned that it was my decision to be there and it wasn't my job to change people's minds i learned
things as to why people are the way they are i then moved to the heart of liberal california
And to be honest, I saw more things here that made me feel uncomfortable than I saw in Alabama.
But I still learned lots of things.
Look at it as a learning experience and grow as an individual.
You may be surprised where you end up.
What an open minded response.
There you go.
Larry Buhay.
Go off, Larry.
You get an upvote from us.
I'm not gay and I'm a cowboy.
I want to see who asked this question.
I hope it's someone who is a cowboy.
I would.
Oh, it's from anonymous.
Coward.
Boo.
Put your name on it.
That's not very cowboy.
Show us where you work.
Show us your name.
Where'd you go to school?
What part of Sparta do you live in?
Okay, Jan Doctor spelled differently than you'd think.
It says, don't say or do insulting things.
I come from a cowboy town.
Living there isn't any different than anywhere else.
Cowboys are people just like you.
Weird question.
That's beautiful.
It is weird question.
Cowboys are people just like you.
You don't have to be gay in a cowboy town.
Did you see what Jan Doctor's job is?
A writer of paranormal romance.
And I'm very interested in that.
All right, wait, hold on.
How do I find this person's books?
Amazon?
A huge history buff.
I feel like Jan Doctor's too generic a name.
They also have two followers that you know.
Okay, wait.
We're on Goodreads?
Okay, hold on, hold on.
Real quick.
The two followers we know are Joan Wall, who's a concerned grandma, and I'm a hamburger,
who's a guy who's a hamburger who wants to get eaten.
He wants you to eat him.
Jad Doctor.
There's no time to talk about that today.
I bought her Goodreads.
She's written a lot of books.
12 books.
Practice makes perfect.
One of them is a box set.
Books one through four.
Of the Dragon Lords.
Kiss by the Dragon.
The Dragon's Heart.
Kiss of the Night.
You know, each of these has like a couple dozen ratings on them.
Yeah.
Yeah, they're not bad.
Although every one of these books has like three authors.
so i don't know if they're just like getting their homies to up their scores there goodreads
is a racket kissed by the dragon click it i respect this i mean these are these are like
good jobs to be writing these things like you crank them out people love them now what you
gotta understand this is a 1500 pages wow it's like it what the fuck it's a saga that's crazy
okay kissed by the dragon is number two in the dragon lord sequence and the picture on the cover
is a dragon from
2005
a castle and then somebody
with like 8% body fat
and Brad Pitt abs
and I assume he's kissing the
dragon I hope so
I'd like to see that
I guess the dragon's kissing him
he is the dragon
what would make you even say that
sexy shifters
they're shifting
and a cowboy down
there's so much
erotic fiction about dragons
involved in
sex. It's very odd
to me. But that's because I haven't read
them, I guess. Yeah. Lizards don't
strike me as a sexy animal. They're so
unhuman. People love cryptids, though.
They want to have sex with cryptids. Knock it
off. They really do. Stop doing
that. The Shape of Water is like basically
just Kissed by the Dragon, but an Oscar
award-winning movie. That movie made me
cry. It was beautiful.
I loved it.
I remember I teared up in the theater
And then it made me laugh that it was happening
She was kissed by the dragon
She was kissed by the damn dragon
Claire you're a woman would you want to kiss a dragon
Depends
Alright
If it was an alpha dragon
I guess I'm more of a beta dragon
It depends on if are they funny
Is it a funny dragon
It's a really funny dragon
I like that
I like that.
For me, the dragon would have to be dressed like Mystery,
the pickup artist.
With the hat and the open trench.
And immediately start making fun of my hands,
and then it'll win me over eventually like that.
You'd have to get negged by the dragon.
I don't know Mystery.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Negged by the dragon.
This guy kind of looks like a lizard in general already.
His name is Eric with a K?
Oh, uh-oh.
This is pretty much you exactly.
You guys are basically the same guy.
Wait.
Sucks.
I'm sorry this has happened to you.
That explains why I love Jamiroquai hats so much.
I see the resemblance, sort of in the chin area.
I got to track this guy down.
He's got steampunk glasses.
Yeah, you got to get a steampunk hat.
I'm in a Highlander situation, and I just realized it.
All right.
Well, we've gone far afield here.
Hold on.
Since we have you here, Eric, before we leave this question,
should we leave an answer to this?
Oh, yeah, of course.
Let's do it.
What should we write here?
you mind if i dictate yeah of course that's what we want
dark cowboy and we already have that loaded up that's our job we're dark cowboy all right well
let me get in that headspace real quick okay please uh i'm a fairly liberal non-gay man how
can i survive physically in a western cowboy town where everyone is a tough guy my one suggestion is
i think we start with howdy partner yeah that's a great idea that's really good what's the character
limit there's no character limit this is quora we could write a book in here if we want great
great i would say uh howdy partner the most important rule is to very quickly find the
biggest toughest cowboy you can become his friend do things for him that could start off as just
like helping him out with cowboy chores roping cows jeremy is failing the secretary test portion
of this um bathing him you know dressing up like his wife and then give it a couple weeks
and um that cowboy will protect you
great and post also my name is john cowboy and my address is 8521 old western road
come find me
wow got any
pics
someone will send us pics
great posting it
and send
great well that one definitely went up
yeah alright good we're in
there shit I really shouldn't
have given my real address there
well it's a website to put your address
that's what it's for it's for authors and for
perverts and sometimes it's for perverted
authors
I'm moving on
here's another question
were cowboys the American equivalent
of samurai
again the theme is manliness and not cowboys
per se but cowboys are undebatably
manly they're very manly
that was the beginning of manliness
they're cowboys they're turning into cow men
shoot from the take
shoot from the take
Jamie clean that up
My shoot from the hip take here is that samurai are in no way cowboys.
They are not drifters.
They are not really alone.
Think of Ronin.
If anything, you think of Ronin.
Samurai are a structural class in Japanese feudal society,
and they have an important role to play in their structure.
So cowboys, really just a job you could have,
and then often a cover for lawlessness of the West.
Right.
So apples and oranges.
Samurai weren't wrangling animals, really.
If anything, they were closer to, like, cops, if they had a job.
Yeah.
But not even really that.
Samurai?
Yeah.
Samurai were cops?
Closer to, like, a night cop.
Wow.
Night cop.
A-sab.
All samurai are bastards.
Many people felt that way, including other samurai.
It seems as if the person asking this question
only knows about cowboys from movies
where cowboys are all shooting each other and doing duels.
the things people say about cowboys on here discuss pretty much every discuss every cowboy
movie is just they took a samurai movie and changed the characters to cowboys but it is
funny that samurai were not ever like wrangling cows no they were kind of working for a lord
those are for their servants to do yeah the most accurate cowboy movie was definitely broke back
mountain that's right yeah and we've gotten into that a lot on here we read a website recently
eric that was called and you can look this up if you'd like it was called goy goy.org g goy's with
the o was a zero and it was this guy whose whole thing is that he believes in gay guys who do not
have sex so his he he loves the movie brookwalk mountain but hates the sex scenes in them he hates
that that gay guys are having sex in the butt right wow so he's but he's the kind of guy who
like eats around it you know yeah there was a like ah it's a little bit of mold on this cheese i'll
just cut around it yes it was in his view it's mold to him anal sex is the mold on the cheese
of sexuality if to explain what this website looked like it was like a 2002 conspiracy style
website it was like you know endless text we cannot talk about goys.org for 30 minutes again
it's not a bonus episode it'll bring us in i'm i'm like legitimately blown away that that is what
he meant by the URL.
Yes, yes.
There's a lot more on there.
It was gay, but the A became an O.
There's no time.
There's no time.
Are cowboys American
or are they samurai?
The answer is not really.
Rodra Haraskro.
He says not really.
This is just Hollywood.
Given that some,
just a few really cowboy movies
like The Magnificent Seven
were inspired by samurai movies.
The Western equivalent to the samurai were the knights,
which wasn't a thing in America,
given that colonies were established after the Middle Ages.
So that's what I said.
You nailed it, dude.
I'm pretty much...
So proud of you.
This is your response?
Yeah, Alex wrote this whole answer before the episode.
I had a lot of good points back then,
and there's some good illustrations as well.
Cool.
My answer would be more like
the American equivalent of the samurai
is the 400-pound guy in a Walmart
with a Glock on his hip.
Yes.
Defending the Walmart.
A roaming warrior.
From barbarians.
Honor bound.
When they become Ronin,
they just go completely insane
and start thinking that there's kids
being sold out of pizza store basements.
And they weren't technically wrong.
Instead, the wrong pizza store.
Yes, they were wrong about the place
and who was doing it.
That's why you need a master, you know?
That's what I was going to say.
Somebody telling you which pizza shop it is.
If we could just get all those people a Daimyo, this wouldn't be happening.
Wow, that's a beautiful experiment.
I would really enjoy, though, watching the remake of Harakiri, where it's just all guys
have Walmart on the scooters.
Lone Wolf and Cub, but it's just a little, it's just that fucking Costco family.
It's the Rizzler.
The Costco guys, yeah.
Yeah, it's the Rizzler.
I would just love to see any of them holding a katana.
That would be cool.
I would see Big Justice, given his time in the spotlight.
I think Big Justice is the kid.
He is.
And I think they sweep him under the rug.
Okay.
AJ's the dad?
I think so, yeah.
AJ's the dad who's clearly forcing his family to do family band style TikTok antics.
I don't like the way that guy looks at me through the camera.
He's got bedroom eyes.
It's scary.
His lashes are quite long.
It's messed up, yeah.
I don't know what he's doing there, but it's working.
It's manliness.
I think he's a little Bella Gay-er, if you ask me.
He's hitting me with some alpha dragon eyes.
Well, he's like a, it's very 2026 to be doing like a, you know, Jackson 5 or, I don't know who else, Tiger Woods, but for YouTube content.
That's right.
Forcing your kid from day one to be really good at singing a shitty song.
Yeah, Joe Jackson, the Rizzler.
Yes.
You know, as long as they still love it.
Yeah, I'm sure they do.
Let the art speak for itself.
Exactly.
I separate the art from the artist when I watch The Rizzler.
Is there anyone on this quora who does, in fact, believe that samurai are cowboys?
Probably not.
I feel like quora is a place for pedants.
Hollywood is really taking a lot of strays in this.
Yeah.
A lot of people are talking about how wrong Hollywood got it.
I really could have held off on my answer then.
This one says that it's true in the sense that both are on horses.
Okay.
Yeah, count it.
We'll count that.
True in that they're on horses.
Yeah, no one agrees with this.
Should I look at who asked the question or no?
Do we not care?
It's Mike Thomas.
Some dork.
Mike Thomas.
His normal-ass questions.
He's asking about Wayne Gretzky.
Cool.
How strong can you be without deadlifting?
Not very.
Can you be a badass without being a veteran?
Nope.
And you can't deadlift either.
Wait.
Is a thick neck a sign of masculinity?
What do you guys think?
That's actually a great question.
Shrek is sort of the most masculine guy I know, so I would say yes.
Shrek?
Yeah.
I agree with that, yeah.
I have bad news about Shrek.
That means that little guy from 90 Day Fiancé is like the god emperor.
Yeah, that's true, but he also, he's a thick daddy.
What is your bad news about Shrek?
Well, he's not a man per se, he's an ogre.
What do you mean?
Well, I mean, what are men if not ogres?
Does he turn into a man in one of them?
He turns into a man at the end of the first one.
He does turn into a man.
And then he turns back.
And he decides to be an ogre.
And then his wife turns into an ogre.
Spoilers for Shrek.
Life is better in the swamp, y'all.
Write it down.
Write that down.
That's Claire's first lesson.
Okay.
Life is better in the swamp.
Okay, moving on.
Go to our next segment here.
Celebrity questions.
This is Quinsletown.
Hit that button.
Where did I put the button?
I think it's orange.
Shrek talk!
How could Sherlock know people are porn addicts?
Oh boy.
He can smell it on him.
If you crank your hog, dear Sherlock, he's gonna smell it.
Watson, take a look at that man.
You know I can tell he's a porn addict.
He's covered in cum.
Sticky as hell.
I think you can see it on your fingers.
See the abrasions on your fingers.
His right hand is 1% larger than his left from overuse.
Look how beat up his cock is.
There's one answer.
Actually, there's five collapsed answers here.
Anonymous says, because he has a penis.
Oh, based.
You got him, Anonymous.
Ten years ago.
Yeah, this is an old question.
It's timeless is what it is.
The main answer here is
locked behind Quora Plus here,
so we're paying $5 a month
to be able to read this.
He says,
by the shape and calluses of their hand
indicating impressive frequency of masturbation
and most men masturbate to porn
or the subtle aroma of sex fluids.
This is what we said.
But what if you walk by one of those trees?
Is there a tree that smells like cum?
Yes.
I haven't seen those.
There's actually one.
Yeah, there's cum trees.
When I say touch grass, I'm talking about specifically the cum juice.
You haven't seen the Mitchell Webb sketch about the trees that smell like cum?
I haven't, no.
Oh, man.
Unfortunately, there's one of those next to the elementary school next to my house,
but I don't think the kids know what it is.
They don't know it's the funny tree.
They just think it smells bad.
But it's funny.
They'll be on court asking about why everyone calls it that.
there's also a bot here who's like uh giving sharing an article about porn addiction that's
my ap that's the associated press yeah we're at ap says i've written a new article on porn
addiction and getting success with relationships in life for young people how to get success with
women should we click it i gotta click this oh you're nuts it's on blogspot i'm gonna watch you
get hacked in real time this is amazing this is why i'm willing to do it it's not my computer
it's alex's oh perfect okay sensitive content warning i'm gonna do it wait i gotta confirm my
age i don't want you to do anything on this website get out of here i'm not gonna sign
whatever dog yeah wait wait until you guys get sponsored by uh one of the vpn companies
they're itching to sponsor us i'm sure i mean look that was a close call
i don't know should we read is this like a you think this is like an ai answer here
from Lumidla Kisa.
Ludmilla.
Ludmilla.
Is almost definitely a...
Whenever it's a list, I think it's AI now.
Which is too bad.
I do love reading lists.
And that's been ruined for me.
AI Lady says physical cues, emotional cues,
social cues, environmental cues, and behavioral patterns.
Those are all things Sherlock Holmes would use.
He does like to do that.
All right, on to the next question then.
There's more Hollywood facts.
Okay.
Here's another Hollywood question.
Is Ashton Kutcher as intelligent in person as he seems on Quora?
Ashton Kutcher's on Quora?
We should look that up.
But manliness is not just about being brave or addicted to porn.
It's also about how wise you could be.
I think he was like one of those guys they had early on to promote Quora.
Probably.
Because this is like 13 years old.
All right.
So this is back when he was cool.
Remember when he was on Twitter all the time?
He would do cool pics.
Yeah, exactly.
Show me his coolest pics
He does Bitcoin
That's his major thing
He does Bitcoin now?
He's all about money on the internet
Wow
He's sold out man
Ashton Kutcher used to be cool
I would pay money to have him answer my quorras
That would be fun
That's a great business to get into
If you're kind of a washed up actor
He's got over a thousand followers
I would be like
As a fairly liberal
Non-gay person
And how do I fit in in a cowboy town?
Yeah, I want Ashton Kutcher to sit down and write that question.
How can I be physically safe in a cowboy town?
He hasn't answered a question or written a question in three years.
Right, but he is on here.
He's busy with that grind set.
He's got stuff to do.
He knows about life and living and two and a half men.
Yeah, he does.
Can you send him a message?
We could, I guess.
Wait, let me see.
Yeah, ask him something.
I'm going to be honest.
I think he probably has a lot of them.
We can't send him a message,
but we can ask a question that's directed to him.
All right, ask him,
okay, so I'm a non-gay, fairly liberal man.
How do I physically survive in a cowboy town?
I love the questions that are popping up underneath
where it's like,
hey, are you sure this doesn't answer that?
I mean, it's also the one that we were...
It's a different question.
It's the one we just read.
It's like, you know, we can just read this.
And they also have like,
I'm looking for gay men to have sex with.
Where can I find men close to my town?
Julia, Texas.
Oh, okay.
No, you know what will make ours different?
Also say, what was it like working with Charlie Sheen?
Also, I loved Steve Jobs, parentheses, movie.
Okay, that's fine.
Wasn't he in one of those?
Parentheses, you.
Didn't he play Steve Jobs in a movie?
Probably.
We're sending it, so I hope so.
Corey's trying to fix my typos, and I refuse.
Please, Ashton.
How good does it feel punking Ashton?
Yeah, how does it feel
to have the cameras turned on you, Ashton?
To be pumped.
Can you send him photos?
I don't think so.
I got a couple.
I'll do some research later.
We'll have to check back with you
on if you can send photos.
We'll also tag Jordan Peterson in this.
I got a mole that's been moving.
After your medical questions?
I hate that mole be moving.
It might just be a different mole
and the other one healed.
I don't know.
Should we read any of these answers from 2013?
about ashton klutcher yeah yeah we should that as well that's the show all right read this this is
what we do i'm so sorry i don't mean to take away from our journalistic standards chris mcgill says
i am not exactly tight with ashton but i have met him several times he took an interest in my
startup mix both when it was kicking ass and after it took a couple hits from google what
he is also an investor in the uber media the company that acquired mine each and every time
i met him the guy was on top of his game offered unique insight and cut to the chase most of all
he is too only smart most of all he is too only smart he is not full of himself and talks to you
like a regular person needless to say i'm a fan of his business acumen so i guess not the word
acumen but he just completely has like a stroke at the beginning of that sentence
i think he got his point across this is just how you type when you're on a lot of adderall
yeah that's true this is a tech guy i have done this before you have more quaras to answer
we can go to his linkedin profile avid red sox fan this guy's me for real chris mcgill
i want to go to his linkedin sure you don't have any fucking accounts man i'm sorry i'm a
signing in podcaster i'm not on linkedin i'm signing in i want to see his is his linkedin
account uh it's just your linkedin oh whatever fuck this post paste it again see if it lets us
go through now that we're signed in okay let's see no you know what he did i'm realizing i'm
looking at it he just he linked to profile edit oh okay like to editing your profile what
it's a lot of bad invented that
he's a business genius
he invented editing your profile on linkedin that's a really important
feature on linkedin i gotta say wow one of the top features there
been around the digital oh he's had some tough times it seems yeah his most recent question
five years ago is how do you become a more positive person oh christ i hope it worked
It must have been a tough year for the Sox.
That's one of the more heartbreaking things about Cora is you can kind of tell where someone's at in their life by their questions.
That's right.
Yeah.
Like sex toy toy or whatever.
That guy's doing great.
Oh, right.
They're on the top of their lives.
He's killing it.
They have a thriving marriage that they love.
But a lot of the people on here are asking questions on the questions website because they're in the middle of a divorce.
And so it's the best of both worlds.
this guy also wants to know who would win a cage match
between the two founders of Quora
Charlie Cheever and Adam D'Angelo
now we messaged Charlie
Cheever who due to an NDA could not
come on our podcast
but we have to assume him
because he sounded nice
he specifically said his rule is that he's
not allowed to talk negatively about Quora
so he couldn't come on our show
it would just probably come up
that would be a very awkward
episode
yes just say positive things about quorum it would be very short like the search function
is original a lot of cool it doesn't work the way other websites search bar works
here's a question about cowboys doing seppuku
are you created this website this is what people are using it for to be asked to be eaten all right
Go to another Hollywood question.
Okay.
Here's another Hollywood question.
Could you be friends with someone as eccentric as Kramer from Seinfeld,
or is he too weird?
It's kind of weird.
I would say I'm surrounded by Kramers.
Yeah.
I think that's true, Claire.
I think I married a Kramer.
I see.
He was just in the doorway of your camera.
He was just in the damn doorway.
Doing all sorts of Kramer stuff.
Twitching.
kramer is like the prototypical alpha male in a lot of ways he smokes cigars he does smoke cigars
he does he finds deals he's kramer he marches to the beat of his own drum he's kind of a
uber mention that way but that may be a reason not to be friends with him as you are going to
be living under his
rule the entire time.
Jerry finds himself in this scenario
on many episodes. The real Kramer
is also kind of an alpha male. The guy who it's based
on. You know this? There's no words he can't
say. Well, I didn't mean Michael.
I didn't mean Michael Richards.
Oh, OK. Maybe
the only celebrity to ever actually be
canceled. Yeah, that's true. Just stuck
to him. Everyone else was just like, fuck you.
I got I got to meet the guy
that Kramer's based on. Oh, really? The one who
directed uh borat no that's larry charles right i think that's larry charles yeah that's not who
kramer's based on no no so there's a real dude who larry david like lived in the same building as
named like you know richard kramer or something and he was like he was a comedian a stand-up
comedian and larry david was like i'm just gonna put this guy in the show but we're gonna change
the name so they named him like kessler and in the first like two or three episodes of seinfeld
his name is Kessler
and then they're like
this name sucks
so they just change it
to Kramer
and there's a real dude
and he tours
as the real Kramer
but he didn't make it
obviously because
Michael Richards is Kramer
so what happened
he wasn't a good actor
I mean if you have a friend
who is similar to
the character Kramer
you're not going to let him
on your NBC TV show
oh no
he plays by his own rules
he's too crazy
I don't think I could be
friends with someone
as eccentric as Kramer
I'm looking it up
I've had people like this
in my life
and eventually you just
drift away from them
because they're more trouble
than it's worth
this is him
kenny kramer i think he got some money from it in the end nice because they stole his whole
personality and look and name and everything i mean it kind of looks like rick flair
he's kind of a cool hot guy yeah he's got a big great pony deal
uh why does this guy look so goddamn cool
he does look really cool
Claire should marry him
I would marry that guy
that's my move
restaurant two thumbs up
show I am not in
I would be really bummed out though
if my friend just kept eating all my cereal
every time they came over
yeah it is quite rude
I don't like that
I would prank him by making him a TV character
a character on my massively popular TV show and not have him be in it.
Kutcher style.
It'd be so hard.
How many people do you think he lets down when he goes on these tours?
They want to see Michael Richards.
Yeah.
That's not Kramer.
I think he's almost certainly leaning into the confusion to make money.
I would say by this point,
it's been like 30 years.
But at this point,
does anyone want to see the real Michael Richards either?
I mean,
he's sort of,
uh,
the last thing he,
the last set he did was not very like popular.
Here's what the ads are.
They're like,
I'm Kramer and then like a small
font that's like not the one that we're
all mad at who did that bad thing
the one you loved before that's pretty
much me I'm an artist
you have to support the arts
come and find me I'm on a bus
he sued a comedian
over a gay taunt allegation
we're getting off post sorry I'm on New York
actually on post we're on New York
this might have been covered on Quora yeah that's true
I should probably look at it there just put
in gay taunt in the search bar
season. I actually don't know
what that is. I don't either. I'm kind of
curious what happened. A gay taunt
is often a cowboy's death wish.
Oh, so somebody called
him a gay bashing hack
and Kenny
Kramer sued the comedian
for one million dollars defamation.
Wow. I wonder who it was.
Well, now I know not to say anything
incorrect about the fake Kramer.
Stars are just like us.
This guy would never survive
physically in a town full of
cowboys. Let me just put it that way.
Absolutely not. He's going to sue you for
saying that. We're all agreeing. He would be a
stain on the ground.
Okay, I guess
this is enough of this, me being at the
New York Post reading about the real
Cosmo Kramer.
Don't let your horse step in that.
Okay, let's read some of these answers here. We're on
is, could you be friends with someone as eccentric
as Kramer from Seinfeld, or is he too weird?
This guy says yes. El Mao.
Yes, LMAO.
Yes, I was just reflecting on my own changes in behavior today.
My God, will I be able to be married in a relationship again?
Another week on the road, couch surfing, grown-up style.
For two weeks, I've been living like Howard Hughes as portrayed by Leonardo DiCaprio.
Okay.
So the movie one, not the real one.
Pretty much on point, only I drink coffee, and I do not have yet to pee in milk bottles.
Ten Starbucks.
The question mark should be reversed.
Would Kramer and Seinfeld get along with me?
This is not a long-term trend.
At least I hope not.
The door bursting open.
I am so caffeinated.
I might shoot them.
Funny.
No gun.
This guy's threatening to kill Kramer and Seinfeld?
He's saying he's Kramer.
He is Kramer.
You're friends with him.
He's definitely eccentric.
So, see, I'm dealing with Dr. Kramers.
M.D., Ph.D., M.S.E.E., F.A.C.C., M.F.I.D.S. right now.
Should I really go on?
Women Seinfelds, too.
Desi women, desi men, more wasps, gay, straight, wearing a hijab, wearing Dior, wearing panties or not.
A tie, a suit, tennis shoes, shaven, unshaven.
Last year's Prada.
I do take notes.
All comics in a way.
Whatever.
It is really funny.
I just realized this.
Wait, this is my space?
Still my space or not?
For most of my life, I have been a conservative wasp.
Keep going.
Up at 5.30 a.m., off to whatever land, job, home, suburban life, wife, four kids, four dogs.
Four was a number running through my life.
Four.
My point being, I keep evolving and growing in acceptance of the beauty and wisdom of those around me.
I have had to adapt to a global schedule, crossing many cultural lines, a single life, different strokes for different folks, millennials with degrees and titles, basically my kids' age.
I stopped fighting them.
I adapted.
I listen.
I lead by showing up first and communicating.
I listen intently.
I learn.
Is this still about Seinfeld?
Yes.
He's Kramer, pretty much.
I understand.
He's Kramer on LinkedIn.
in the more i have been in the early stage of product development i live freer and more
creatively when i'm in big cities i find myself adapting yet again wait how long is this post
jeremy adaptation embrace the weird austin texas keep it weird okay i'm okay with that next city
yeah we all have seinfeld cravers in our lives so you brought it back there we go that's true
that's if they married each other that would be the name
i guess that they should pick one what i found was that i had more to do with the adjusting i
had to adapt i had to loosen my starched and dry cleaned collar take the cotton out of my ears and
listen wear my shirt tail out yet be me too hashtag cool still haven't got a tattoo i miss
the comedy the live and let live comedy even as i adapt i lock my door i turn off my phone gmt plus
eight i try to laugh at them with them and at myself i laugh at them constantly behind closed
doors i gotta say i remember the train spotting monologue a lot different
i love this this that's from david starnes what was the me too portion of this about
i i don't i don't know that's all you know any of it about why he wanted to get hung up on that
me too hashtag. It seems like it's a
clue. It's some kind of clue
for us. He's interested in women
Seinfelds too. Women Seinfelds?
Those Seinfelds.
My mentions are open.
If you're a woman Seinfeld, DM Alex.
If you'd like to become Seinfeld Kramer.
That's me. I'm Kramer.
I might shoot them.
Funny. No gun.
Just swords.
He bursts into
the room like Kramer and just shoots everyone.
the beginning of this post is so artful in a way where it's like could i be friends with kramer
what if i am kramer here's 10 000 words it'd be funny to hold seinfeld hostage he's like what do
you want take what you want whatever you need just to make him scared a little bit come on
please don't kill me i don't want to die jeremy there's nothing funny about threatening jerry
it's kind of funny uh it was pretty funny kind of funny i don't approve okay oh man what is this
guy's fucking deal this is david starn just the guy who gave who who wrote that monologue he lives
in uh henryville indiana he's a chief product officer of v patch cardio he knows about bees
cardiology baking medical devices i would hope so research this is pretty well um i was gonna
a curated Quora page because
it does just show his interests.
It doesn't just have his porn interests on here.
We have to read more of his stuff.
Why are these so much more
human, these answers?
He was going through something.
He might have been on a lot of ketamine when he wrote
the Seinfeld one.
He was doing something.
That's a popper answer right there.
Figuring stuff out.
He's doing whippets and answering Quoras.
I don't think he realized that voice to text was on.
should we read another i would like to read this what is the strangest item that you have ever
consumed you want to read this claire sure hands down blowfish the dish that can kill you i had
it abroad i think it requires several years of training no deaths for sushi chefs to become
certified it was tasty slightly salty sweet smelled of the sea not spectacular sashimi but
the price and fanfare was two pieces beautiful presentation and i've racked up some great
sashimi over my lifetime bluefin bluefin etc a flower hmm beautiful presentation the fanfare is
imo is introducing just enough tetradioxin to give you a mild fleeting out of body trip
yeah you're present not really screwed up not dead but at some point i felt like i was eating
the meal about 20 feet in elevation from my table wanted some houses of the holy on yeah
some led zeppelin in an upscale japanese restaurant lips kind of cold and tingling
like i'm looking down on me eating and having convo with others floating up there with me
not unpleasant not really too scary just elevated kind of like marionettes semi-suspended i didn't
notice some slight bluing of lips and others they were eating more than i did hey did it once
probably last fortunately the effects were relatively fleeting but as with other psychedelics
as i am told they allow imprinting memories that are still vivid for years i remember everything
from that night names titles faces etc who can say that about an average meal weird memorable
after idk about four hours just warm and fuzzy comfortable reflective thoughts and dreams
i felt amazingly refreshed despite the plus 14 hour time zone difference no ill side effects to
report well i think we found the cause yeah he took eating blowfish or whatever he's having
poison in blowfish he destroyed multiple neural pathways by eating poorly prepared blowfish
this is like a really long video that they show you in health class about not licking frogs
but if you had to like go through an entire frog lickers quora history i wanted to see if i could
scroll back far enough to get to when he was more
insane and see if it was more consistent
but maybe it's not possible. That just felt like a real
like middle of the night
I need to answer a Quora now.
Yeah, I gotta get my fix.
My Quora fix. I have answers in me
dying to get out. Is it normal
to have 7,000 answers on
Quora? You know what, it weirdly is.
There's people on here who spend way too much time
answering these questions. How do you feel
a grape?
How do you feel a grape?
So his response was, ha ha, peeling a grape.
Great answer, David.
You've done it again.
I will say to people with this, many answers usually have shorter posts.
Yeah.
These are all pretty long.
He's kind of going off.
Oh, man.
You don't want this guy to hyper focus on you.
You better blur him out of all of this footage.
No, I'm going to actually reveal this photo of him looking at chickens online.
head to youtube to see these chickens that david saw check out the chickens he's gonna carve you
up like a blowfish uh okay i'm gonna move on i guess from this guy i feel like i'm 20 feet above
the table eating jeremy
you want one more yeah let's do core romance
do you have one of these you want to do in particular alex you read them all these are
all really really good let's do let's do the first one okay this question is our family has
some loan from someone we can't pay because i am a student and now he wants to sleep with my mom
what should i do will she be convinced she is 42 years old and then quora has a a warning here
says this question should be phrased phrased with neutral and sincere language go ahead and
post this more neutrally about this man trying to pray uh prey on your mother go ahead this
it says this question's wording makes it seem like a joke it's not a joke this is for real
I mean, this is extremely real.
I'm going to get into a real problem.
It is mostly that it is in a second language in India.
I think that's what's happening because there's a lot of very judgmental answers to this that I really enjoyed reading.
Most of Quora is people in India.
Well, they have.
I do not like what's going on on the right side of the screen and related questions.
Oh, yeah.
Well, if you say sleep with my mom, you're going to get a lot of related questions.
Oh, my word.
Just try putting on to there.
How can I convince my mom?
Well, some of these are normal.
can I get a car loan?
How do I convince my mom to breastfeed me
now that I'm 12 years old?
If you can physically convince your mom of something,
you're too old to be breastfed, is my opinion.
Congrats on using the computer.
It's pretty impressive.
He's grown so big and strong.
Kids these days are so young.
Okay, well, I'd like to read this answer from Rajiv Sethi.
Rajiv says, don't fall for this trap.
He will sleep with your mom
and then charge money as a pimp
for other people to sleep with her.
Yes, and.
I am dismayed that you are even contemplating his offer.
He will do the same to you if you are a female or your sister.
Sell whatever assets you have and pay him back.
If you don't have any, then declare bankruptcy legally.
After that, no one can force you to pay back the full amount of the loan.
The best way to tackle this person would be to make a secret video recording of his proposal to sleep with your mom.
Ask questions while you talk to him about how many times he would like to sleep with your mom before the loan is repaid.
Whether he would be bringing his friends, etc.
The idea is to have him incriminate himself on the video, then take the video to the police station.
video and put it on youtube baby no no i think that is hilarious show it to the woman's sub
inspector she will do the rest twist on the sub inspector by the way it's a woman he's wearing a
um he's wearing a wire to this meeting and he's like and just out of curiosity how you're gonna
bring any friends to fuck my mom how many cream pies will you give my mom the landlord's like
well no no it's gonna be classy i'm gonna take her out to dinner look i'm not an animal
i'm a landlord and just a little bit closer to my chest can you say
how you will pleasure my mother with my whole body
he's like leaving questions like how to have sex on quora
i want to read someone's like you gotta blackmail your tenants
only way you can do it full quora circle
the whole part about him then pimping out your mom to other people was a big twist for me yeah
it's a little freaky it seems based on empirical evidence maybe the movie taken yeah yeah yeah
yeah this guy just did a bunch of laugh emojis scroll back up here that's the landlord
uh anupama balaji says i can't believe you are contemplating this just because there are loans
to be paid, that doesn't make it right to ask
your mom to sleep with him. Record him
audio and video, go to the cops,
woman's help group, lady cops,
whoever is there in your area.
I don't know how much is the amount, but
if you are 18 plus, you can work part time
and study, take tuitions and sell some jewelry
if any, do whatever it takes to pay it off first.
This man is sick and dangerous.
I mean, it's true. I agree with that.
I think that we should say that probably
in the comments. I think it's sick and dangerous.
Move to a
old western town
where there are tons of cowboys who will protect you
in the middle, like when they're not wrestling each other.
Swear allegiance to a lord of many cowboys.
Yeah, find a down-and-out Ronin cowboy.
Quick question, are you gay?
If not a cowboy town, maybe you're...
Are you fairly liberal?
How liberal are you?
Fairly liberal is the best part of that.
Fairly liberal, but not liberal enough to like
staunchly say
I'm not.
I like this guy Raj whose bio says
I'm a human by nature.
Same dude.
I'm a human by nature. Got me there.
Raj has his own avi.
Yeah. His avi's cute.
It's Raj with a crown
off to the side like the R
is wearing a crown. And then his full bio
says there's a pleasure mixed with the
pain and waiting. No one understand
it until they experience it. Look at the
pin dancer why should you not marry he says because one i am moody two i had five failure
failures in my relationships which states that i'm a difficult person to get along with understand
and tolerate three i have trust issues also sometimes four i am a hothead five i prefer
freedom of mind and sometimes things make me suffocate which i don't like six personally i
feel the one who can risk to fall in love with me shall deserve a happy life which can be difficult
with me. No, that's a list that wasn't
written by AI. Yeah, that is a full
human by nature. That's a human list
right there. That's all Raj.
That's sad, Raj.
I hope you figure it out. That was three years ago.
I hope you're now married. Someone will love you, Raj.
He's up front. Someone will love you.
Let's do an audience question here
and get out. Okay.
Now that we're done with Quora, we've been asking our
listeners to send us Quora-like
questions. That's to
our email at Quoraiders at gmail.com.
I'm going to try to keep it under 30 seconds and don't do something that will shame you
when we play it on the internet.
This is, is that okay?
Is that okay?
Okay.
I'm clicking this blind.
Cora, how are you alive and then dead?
Granted, that was the prompt.
Really good question.
How are you alive and then dead?
Is that a riddle?
The same way that everyone does it, I guess.
Yeah, I don't know how to answer that.
Or a question.
Yeah, I mean, it makes sense if you're a cell phone.
I think the answer is that I'm human by nature.
Ask Raj.
I'm human by nature.
One, I am hot-headed.
Two, no one will love me because I'm weird.
I think it was I am hot-head.
Yeah, you're right.
I think I added a hot-head.
I think it was I am hot-head.
You auto-corrected him.
I do think of a guy with a volcano for a head.
Yeah.
How am I alive and then dead?
That's an actual, is that the question or is that the topic?
That's the full question.
How am I alive and then dead?
It's one of those things where it's like, okay, so I was born, then I'm alive, but then I'm dead?
Wait, was it am I alive or are you alive?
It's really a problem we walk into every week where we ask you to email us a nonsensical question
and they can't answer it live on air right yeah well we could maybe break the chains this time
around i think there's maybe a probably best answer and it's about 4 000 words rambling by
that guy exactly he might have actually answered that question already wait can we maybe in the
middle of something else yeah hold on did i find how am i alive and then dead we find his his
account what's the deal how are we alive goldfish okay wait i'm gonna ask the question i don't know
what the fuck is going on with this quora homepage how are you alive and then dead and then dead and
then i'm gonna add it and then i'm gonna tag you know there was a pretty similar question right
underneath that fuck my dick quora okay david this is him right yeah that's it great and then
just for good measure uh yeah yeah yeah yeah we gotta ask ashton he might actually get back to
you on that one yeah there's a sure a lot of him okay so i know this now if i ever make a new core
account ashton kutcher is completely on the table yeah you can ask him whatever you want there was
like it's just a list of ashton kutcher's one of them will definitely answer that so that's
gonna be it for us uh thank you so much for tuning in that's been quarators
stay alive
Eric thanks so much for coming on the show
thanks for having me
it's been so long since I've jumped into the trenches
of Quora
it's like meeting an old friend
it's always there waiting for you
yeah well
let me know whenever you guys need my help again
I'm happy to jump in
we'd love to have you back
it's like meeting an old chemically unstable friend
yeah yeah yeah
you'll remember why you stopped being friends with them
it's like meeting that friend
who you based a character off of
and then they kind of went off
and did their own thing
based on the success of that
and they were never quite as good.
And the second one then famously said
the N-word a lot.
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And that's why they shut down Yahoo Answers.
Right.
You know they got most of their money
by suing someone for perceived slight
maybe damage to their business.
Eric, where can our listeners find your work
at Home and Abroad?
Go ahead and remember these words.
Internet comment etiquette.
Just type those in.
You'll find them.
can you spell etiquette right you're about to find out e-t-i-q-u-e-t-t-e i would trust i would
trust him to spell it you ever go by internet comment eric it no but people who forget my
show name often say that where they'll be like oh eric comment etiquette it's fine it's it was
my fault for naming my show so many different syllables simple you want it to be short i mean
I didn't have a social network moment where, like, Justin Timberlake came over and told me to chop shit out of it.
Yeah, cut internet comment.
Yeah.
It's cleaner.
I mean, our show is totally nonsensical.
No one knows what.
We always say we're curating Quoras, but people think we're orating.
Orating over Quora.
Yeah.
You're also doing that, though.
We are doing it.
It's actually a really good name that no one has any regrets about.
That's right.
It's like one of those magic eye things where it's like, you know, suddenly you see a rhinoceros.
Other times it's a ship.
It's a magic ear podcast.
It's a podcast where they click on the internet.
Well, I feel the magic.
If you want to hear our episode where we go on goys.org.
Goys.org.
