Starting point is 00:04:59 Catch the bullet how with with what body part my stomach do you want me to throw it underhand or overhand? Well, I'm catching it Overhand yeah Travis, but not too hard Travis. It is still a bullet. Yeah. No, I actually got so uncomfortable now that we brought Bullets into it. Oh, no, it's just like a nerf. Yeah nerf dart It's just having fun in the living room, and I don't even know where one gets a bullet Yeah, right. Is there like a bullet store? Who's even heard of that? I mean clearly there's a bullet store, but do you walk in and do you are you like let me get um Five five bullets. Is that tell me what kind of bullets I need right? I don't know
Starting point is 00:05:41 They they love it at the gun store when you walk in you're like, what's a good number of bullets for a beginner? Yeah, what's a starter bullet like I don't want like don't give me a complicated bullet with a bunch of moving parts Just give me like a bullet that I can plant in the ground and a gun will grow from you know And what kind of gun you working with son? Not like a normal size It's kind of like gray but also kind of black I Give me the give me the succulent of bullets, please just something real easy I want to say it's a club from gold night, but that's probably not anything right. It's gold
Starting point is 00:06:18 It's I cannot think of a I cannot think of a store where I would be more out of my element Oh, yeah, I'm for things than gun store. Oh, yeah, which is good because I won't need to do that Right, like I have a demonstration plan. What of your guns could best hold a daisy that I'll slip into the barrel Oh, yeah, yeah, I love that. I love that. I love that I Um, I cannot imagine The the only thing you know when like you order a fancy bottle of wine because you're trying to feel like a fancy person and then they pour a Little bit in a glass and you're supposed to smell it and you're like, I don't know what the fuck this is Yeah, I would worry about the moment when I was at a gun store
Starting point is 00:06:57 And I said like I'll try that gun, please and they handed it to me and it would go in my hand And I would think what am I supposed to be checking for like? Yep, that's a gun Yep. Yeah. Yeah, I just throw that for sure Well, this is this one went this one has been a good intro. I think I don't yeah. Yeah. Oh, man What's wrong juice just all this What I'm fine. Sorry, I couldn't find the email and I found the email Oh, I didn't want to derail everything because it's like there is a limited number of things you guys can do I just don't know is this you didn't want to derail it
Starting point is 00:07:39 So you made maybe one of the worst human noises I've ever heard I was second guessing the introduction It's very visual Oh, you know, I didn't I didn't even think about that for a podcast Record it for it because you know, we did the live show. It was a smashing success And but it had a lot of visual elements to it. Yeah, maybe got in the habit of including visual elements Yeah, you know, we'll just put the video up for it because I you guys have been like recording your video every time We do a podcast, right? I've been recording a screen share of your guys's video
Starting point is 00:08:18 Oh my god, this is so awkward Griffin. I've been recording a screen share of your guys's video Whoa, okay. So that explains the sort of tesseract Yeah, that we created inside of my windows operating system and why and why clippy died Yep, man. I miss clippy funeral for a friend. I miss him so much. Remember when planners killed mr Peanut they could do that for clippy and there'd be much adroicing. I think everybody'd be excited about that You're bringing back. You mean? Well, no, they would never bring him back. That's the thing. He died stay dead I don't like mr They learned their lesson with mr
Starting point is 00:08:50 Peanut when they were like and now he's a baby peanut and now he's back to being normal again and it's like Oh Yeah, this is a trick. The whole thing was a trick get these guys. It was advertising Yeah, we're just pretending the nuts are still the nuts this time. They'll be like clippy got very Clippy got sick and he passed away and he will not be a baby this time. Thank you for watching because that's not At company how paper clips work if you want you can kind of bend them into a triangle And if you arrange it correctly, you know kind of pop up when you drop it on the table Do you want to do that with clippy's corpse?
Starting point is 00:09:25 And you can pretend like that's a That's his body still alive and moving around cranking doing. I mean, that's the good news Even when clippy dies, he could still effectively work as a paperclip. Yeah, you did still hold paperclips. Yeah He doesn't die. He just becomes a less sentient paperclip a better paperclip if you want he doesn't teach you about headers and footers but You're gonna keep your documents. Yeah. Yeah, yeah for sure. I mean not like a staple a staples way better I think we all agree. This is the worst introduction. We've ever done in the 580 episodes. I think we can all agree Anyone who has not already bought into the franchise in a pretty major way at this point has to be out
Starting point is 00:10:05 Well, every 580 episodes you got to reset back to zero and build up again. We're below that Oh, no, well, we've been we've been absolutely crushing the intros lately. I think is the feedback we always get um So I I I think that it's nice for us to just remind people that like what the low at low point looks like The nadir if you will and i'm not sure if i've ever said that word correctly Nadir is the good one, right? Well zenith is the good zenith is the good when nadir is the worst one Yeah, agree to disagree We've done a lot this show several times this week
Starting point is 00:10:43 It's our third time doing this show We did this show several times in the past week because of scheduling conflicts that are let's be honest our own fault Yeah And now we have we have arrived at this point where you are hearing this and we're recording it and that's all that's promise or intended This is an advice show Here's my first piece of advice If you're doing a comedy podcast
Starting point is 00:11:09 Especially during a pandemic where your maybe mental state has been not great as a result of the ongoing unpleasantness Don't try to do three comedy podcasts that are in one week You'll never recover not to mention several other podcasts several other podcasts now We are sometimes we try to do funny skits like adventure zone adventure zone is like skit after skit after sketch after so many skits I have a friend who loves Godzilla Then why don't they marry him?
Starting point is 00:11:40 Yeah, why don't you marry Godzilla? I found this great video of the fight between Godzilla and king kong from Godzilla versus king kong. Fuck. Yes Sorry from Godzilla versus kong. Yeah, let's let's be sad words. I need a hero from shrek 2 hell. Yeah Wait, is that a special version? Yeah, wait a minute Do you think that I need a hero is part of the score of The orchestration of shrek 2. Okay, wait. Now what okay What Who wrote all star?
Starting point is 00:12:15 smash in his mouth Now, okay to be fair, okay in shrek It is sung by the fairy godmother character. So it is a different person singing in for saunas. Yeah, so if you specifically use that version Then I understand what you're saying. Okay. Okay. Okay. I got I am with you now Oh, ps if I could just take a quick shirk related diversion. Yeah, I went over to pick up my daughter You do not have to ask permission. I don't need permission. I went over to pick up my daughter from Mimi's house and Mimi said uh cooper told that cooper's are three girls Mimi said cooper told daddy what movie you've been watching today uh on repeat and she looks me dead in the eyes and goes
Starting point is 00:13:00 Some bobby ones I hate the sharpest tool babe a shade. Oh my god. Oh god. It's such an old star It's on Uh, okay, so I was reading the question. Oh, yeah The problem is this friend has casting one other thing real quick. Sure. Yeah. Yeah Fight between guzzling kinkong whipped ass. I mean not seen from shrek 2 whips ass Yeah, but I want to talk about my thing first. That's that movie whips ass It's so good. These two big boys are awesome individually
Starting point is 00:13:36 Oh, when you get them together you put them together and they cannot do I thought gonzala was a lady because matthew broadrick said she was having babies That's non canonical non canonical The problem is can I talk about the matthew broadrick? No, yeah What's up with that role in emirate produced 2000 godzilla featuring a soundtrack full of absolute bangers Smashers better than I just don't understand how godzilla fit in madison square garden Without tearing the roof. Okay. Sorry. Okay. Okay. Travis. Please. Let's try to to focus. Okay, right, right?
Starting point is 00:14:12 You got then folds five. Yeah doing air. Yeah, if you ever heard that one. Yeah, there's a Fucking there's that great version of um cashmere ride with me. Oh, yeah. Oh my god I believe that's shawn puffy combs. Oh, and you and obviously the wallflowers are in this one. Yeah, sure. Sure. Sure You know what I mean? Man puff daddy's track is good. Yeah come with me That was my first exposure to cashmere and when I heard cashmere, I was like dang You guys remember that in a major way a huge way. All right, so we're okay now That hangs areas in a
Starting point is 00:14:50 What's the wall flowers? It's the hero. It's just a cover of heroes, isn't it? All right, most of our audience was not alive when this foot came out. So let's go Do you remember the huge taco bell tying with that too or the the? Chihuahua like talk to godzilla in like a scene in a commercial The problem is that this friend has the same name as my no-nonsense landlord And when I went to send this amazing video to my friend, I accidentally Yo, hey, thanks for letting me live here. You ever see these big boys really get it on Frank Frank Frank Frank Frank Check out this video. You know that right? You know my landlord frank maraschino
Starting point is 00:15:32 Who is somehow I don't know how you know two people named frank maraschino That seems wild to me, but um check out these two big boys And I know what you're thinking. Oh, this is great now. I'm mute the video. That's right It's I need a hero from trek 2 not the original version version of I need a hero Why yes, it is I thought you loved this. Can I get a discount on next month? Next month is free. You showed me this big lizard fight this huge You live here for free now. You're my you're my child
Starting point is 00:16:04 now Is the hero you need me? I understand the message. I want to finish the question. Oh, right. Yeah, that would be dope We've been reading it for like 10 minutes. I accidentally sent it to my landlord who is on vacation in greece Even better. That's where Godzilla's from three ten in the morning It's been three days and I've only received the read receipt so I know he saw it my question brothers is What do I do when my landlord comes home and inevitably asks me about this video next time? I see him that's from needing a hero in georgia. You just say pretty good, huh?
Starting point is 00:16:43 How you like There I mean, okay, I think you just look at straight the eyes and there's three reactions like so what do you think? Yeah, you put it back in their court and they say pretty cool. Like, yeah, yeah, I thought you'd like it pretty bad Oh, you must not have watched it because these did you watch it together the time of their lives Did you watch the whole thing because there's twists and turns or I think the most likely thing is they're They're in greece on vacation for three weeks
Starting point is 00:17:14 One, maybe they don't have maybe they didn't spin the dosh to get like Fat pipes and they don't want to download a series of glossy jpegs that form together to make a great fight See with the track music. Maybe they don't want to spin their their uh, their gigs their giggle bites to download that There's a chance they haven't watched it, but Even if they did start Booting it up if I see that I'm like, listen, this is great, but I really need to be at home to enjoy it Yeah, yeah, or I need to get in my comfy slippers Maybe just respond
Starting point is 00:17:45 Like respond to your own email and say like hey, it's been three days and you still haven't addressed my concerns double down And and when it's like your concerns like yeah, this is a real issue. I'm facing in my apartment Yeah, I just wanted to say that the reason I sent this to you and the text got cut off. So I'm sorry, but um In this video, I said you are kong and my complaints about the property or Godzilla and every time you're out there Crushing my complaints and doing battle against it You're really keeping me satisfied as a tenant and I'm sorry that that text got cut off because without that context It's probably very it probably seemed a completely out of nowhere. Sorry about that Hero that shrek required and I thank you for that. You're not the hero
Starting point is 00:18:29 I deserve but you're the hero I need and I can't remember how that quote goes But uh, thank you so much. How's grease How's it going? We don't we never talk about personal stuff. Have you noticed that? Hey, I'm a good time in grease Did you have you found out who put the bop in the bop? Bop That's Justin Are you proud of yourself? I here's the thing I am
Starting point is 00:18:58 I'm proud of you too. What I thought when I was saying it I thought this is gonna kill. Yeah Oh, yeah from downtown hoop slams another one three sounds like another word I Wish nothing but net with rhymes with yet Which is what we're not done yet. There's so much more coming to the cump folks. I know what you're doing around after these messages this fucking careening case For an entire other 41 minutes. Well friends. We are gonna do it or die trying So, um
Starting point is 00:19:36 Can we approach the wizards? Um, oh, yeah Throne I always say throne The wizard would not sit in a throne wizard would sit at the side of the throne and look above Well, I think a wizard would maybe hover Maybe I see so the king's sitting on the throne and everybody approaches the king is like my lord crops but The king the whole time is like not listening because he's got this wizard hovering like six feet off the ground above him Yeah, and he's like wizard
Starting point is 00:20:06 You're really up staging me a little like i'm the king and I can't see right up your robe, dude I see your dingus and everything. It's weird that kings would always have a wizard Of the court around because for me That's the first person I would try to eliminate A relay to challenge my power What like no no no wizard look at sedric right at in sofia the first Yes, the the wizard in sofia the first spins like half that show trying to steal the amulet of amulet on the lord Now hold on justin that's only because he thinks that's what he's supposed to do because his mother is an evil wizard
Starting point is 00:20:42 But his father is a good wizard. I'm saying he turns it around. I know sedric turns it around But like but he doesn't really want it justin like that's He does want it That's you're talking about an absolute ret calm They realize when they realize like it's wild to have like an insurgent wizard that lives in sofia's house And is trying to destroy her they're like this is a weird feel for a dizzy He's a grown-ass adult, right? Yeah, this is a grown adult trying to steal a necklace from a kid. Maybe we should like rethink. Anyway
Starting point is 00:21:09 You're about to purchase a wizard. Yeah, we need to hey whenever you guys are done. I'm still here. Um Sure. Okay. So, um, this is steve sent this and thank you so much steve. It's um, it's written by wiki house staff It's under fun activities slash boredom busters. Oh good. Thank god. I have not clicked into that subcategory But I imagine is a rich vein of content for this show. So I'm gonna bookmark that real quick How to eat six saltine crackers in one minute? For a fan of crackers eating six saltines might sound like a simple task However, the saltine challenge is harder than you might think. Yeah, we've all been there The rules are that a person must completely finish chewing and swallowing six salts at saltine crackers in one minute to help
Starting point is 00:21:53 Without help from liquids or lubrication. Hey, why did you have to say both of those? Well, because you can put some petroleum jelly on the crackers I guess so help them slide down your goal it Uh, if you want to impress your friends or participate in a saltine challenge contest You may be able to accomplish the task with a little strategy. So we're gonna talk, uh Cracker eating strategy. I don't know how I feel about this game facts on the cracker challenge. Like If you win this Based off of knowledge you learned on wiki how that doesn't feel I don't know. It's sporting. Yes. Yes. That's dirty pool
Starting point is 00:22:32 Yeah, I've got cheat codes here. Here's the first cheat code for this to eat six saltines in one minute challenge And the first one could also be The first step in virtually every wiki how article and it is simply Believe in yourself Hell yeah Watch videos of people successfully eating six saltines in under a minute watching videos. Is that does that sound? That doesn't sound like a lot of saltines, does it? Uh, we just didn't eat until the saltines on hands. Well, hold on. No, no, no
Starting point is 00:23:02 We're standing actually at the mouth of a cave And that cave is there's a sign hanging over it that says the worst audio in the history of our podcast And we can we can turn around like a tick tock later, Justin It's a tick tock later That's a tick tock for Justin the supplementary. I don't want to do that as a tick tock I don't want to do that permanently just seems like it's not all I'm just I'm not I'm not in a mood to eat six saltines. I'm just saying that doesn't sound like a lot like if I was enjoying a nice bowl of chili Yeah, I wouldn't think twice about housing twice. That's lubrication
Starting point is 00:23:39 What what? Yeah, I mean the chili That's a non-newtonian liquid I'll I'm saying and I wish I could just say it and like you guys don't always have to Fight everything I say you just be like accepting of the state of my feelings You know what I mean? Like I just feel like that's not a lot of saltines Yes, but not just and I understand your feelings and your feelings are valid But what you're saying is you see you don't have to do that But you are making a bold claim which I am allowed to refute without denying you are you are saying there's no bold There's nothing bold about me feeling
Starting point is 00:24:11 Folks, this is important. I'm stopping on this because it's a really important point for you to take away in your day-to-day life There's nothing bold about me feeling like it's not very many saltines Okay, well not in opposition to that but just solely as an individual I feel like it is a lot of saltines Okay, say shit now Yeah, just so you can't how dare you step to trap this feeling. No, I'm accepting. I'm allowed to feel the way I feel Justin you feel that way I think that I could definitely eat six saltines in 60 seconds is all I'm saying
Starting point is 00:24:45 Oh, let me tell you something as a friend and as a brother I've gone down Not at this exact path Justin But this is that you are now on the second step to doing this challenge yourself And if you're not careful You're gonna you started with that doesn't seem like that much and the second step is I could totally do that Right. Yeah, you can see how this is a slippery slope j-man And do you know what I love?
Starting point is 00:25:10 There's a large portion of our audience that has been listening to our show long enough now that they feel this creeping dread I don't know this grotesque that they will at some point encounter it It is they are so certain that we have crossed the event horizon of Justin eating six crackers on air that And they they it's it is filled them with a terror that they cannot Like define Um, I will stand I will stand as a as a bulwark against this act happening on this show as hard as I can Dear listener, please. No, I'm on your side. I'm less I listen. I love our listeners, obviously But I'm more worried about my human brother and his human mouth
Starting point is 00:25:52 Consuming eating six crackers in in a minute Now really break that down every 10 seconds Oh my god, you are I think I could definitely do it. Oh fuck that's step three. I'm not gonna do it on the podcast We're gonna hear about some of the tips. This is a good. Yes. Thank you. So Justin just so you can start getting ready I think maybe the best the best version of this is You get your crackers together and then we edit out the following 60 seconds of audio and just kind of circle back at the on the other side with the driest Justin
Starting point is 00:26:31 Uh, that has a very arid Justin, um, okay. So first off believe in yourself. Go ahead and start doing that right now Are you doing that? Yeah, but I believe in myself. Correct. Yes. Fantastic Now that you got your head in the right space, it's time to get your crackers in the right space Which is to say Arrange them in a way that you everybody thinks about like, well, how am I gonna get the lubrication and blah blah blah blah nobody thinks about finger technique
Starting point is 00:26:58 Nobody thinks about Optimal Like do you stack them? Do you put them in a row? There's no way you wouldn't do them all at once, right? Hold on have water nearby I can tell from the foley work that Justin's already got that covered for sure. Yeah We're moving on to part two and this is a multi-step. This is a a layer that you just aren't gonna have to sort of consult with your physician and lord about picking picking a chunking strategy
Starting point is 00:27:28 Sorry Okay, you're saying do I stack three chunk them? Do I do two chunk two chunk two? Or you can do one two We can skip we can now skip the following two steps Which is try the three two one strategy or try pairing the crackers for consumption eating two two and two So Justin's already sort of I'm sort of thinking ahead. Yeah Here's what you do
Starting point is 00:27:52 You shove one towards the back of your mouth and then two on either side one on the top one on the bottom And then another on the front, right the cube strategy, right? You're gonna do them all at once We got this nice pocket of air right in the middle that you need to breathe Yeah, you got to have the air inside of the cracker cube And that is going to be the saltiest most flavorful air the saltiest day ever Ever have the pleasure of breathing in your life. Oh, baby is it worth it? I watched a video of a guy breaking the world record Which what would you guys guess for what number of crackers in one minute? Yeah, number of crackers in one minute 10
Starting point is 00:28:25 eight 15 is the world record and um when he finishes He grabs his shoulder in agony. That doesn't see right. Does it's having a heart attack from all the goddamn soul Why would that hurt your shoulder? This is the first he does is hit girls There's so much we don't know about human physiology Somebody eats 15 very salty crackers and it makes her shoulder hurt and doctors are like, I don't know It seems like that makes sense
Starting point is 00:28:56 My favorite part of interspace is when Dennis clade is going down the trachea and he's like, oh, no I took the wrong turn and I'm in the shoulder Okay, so the creator is watching his creations from above like well, certainly they're not going to eat more than 14 Crackers right because there's some we have not tested before hey god god before you put humans out We did notice a defect, but the good news is it won't only trigger only this rare bug No one's ever gonna do that. Yeah It's not even worth patching out Which I guess that is a form of patching it out
Starting point is 00:29:32 Yeah, this man dies from his shoulder pain shoulder his cracker base shoulder injury I'll put something in the bible about it. Don't worry. It'll be okay What's this say? You'll be buried deep in the user manual Exodus 15 one Don't do more than Don't do more than 14 crackers in one minute. Why does it say that? That's like right there in the middle of the whole Passover story Uh, okay, so you can try eating all six crackers at once also that is that is another seems like that to me
Starting point is 00:30:02 That one smells like that stinks of failure. Yeah, that that feels like a knee jerk like first time or mistake Like let's get them all out of the way. I'm like no no no no no I mean I don't know. Oh, here's a cheat code. Oh, oh, oh Okay. Hey. Hey. Hey everybody lean in Bet your friends that you could do this right? We're gonna hustle. We're gonna make some money out of this It's a grift But before this ever starts 24 hours before you're gonna set up like seven humidifiers in this room
Starting point is 00:30:32 You're gonna get that air so wicked moist Right. Oh So moist air man. Oh, yeah, you had to do this in the freaking rainforest cafe, which I assume is very moist Why do you think that's a moist Because it's called the rainforest cafe griffin think they keep it arid I mean, you can do it in the rainforest, but you're gonna lose a lot of money that you're gonna win just on travel alone And getting a guide and supplies and stuff It's expensive to go to this way too expensive to go to the rainforest these days.

Starting point is 00:50:28 Yeah july July 22. There have been eight tweets about this in the past 18 months. No one cares. No one can just hit eight people too Eight people care a lot. What we should do is get it tweeted el polio loco and ask them please Don't bring back the crunchy chicken taco. Ask them to bring back the mc pizza Yeah, yeah, ask this is that's what like outrage looks like Say hey el polio loco. McDonald's isn't doing anything with it Can you bring back the mc pizza?
Starting point is 00:51:00 Can you bring back the mc pizza? Will you please invent an incredibly soft taco? So soft. So soft. A non-Newtonian taco That's my second time using that phrase this episode. Oh, good job travis Do we want to do uh, one more question? I love that I recently got promoted at work and I'm starting to work as a cheese monger, which is very exciting because I love cheese Better than the alternative. Yeah, there's only two things you can really monger Uh, there's a beer Yeah, it's true
Starting point is 00:51:33 There's an old cowbell on a shelf in the cheese department known as cheesetown And old cheese mongers used to ring it when they managed to cut a perfect increment of cheese for customers I remember that half pound fourth pound. I love this. That's so good. I love you should do that shit at tcdy Did you yeah if we could get a perfect seven ounce or on a small or uh, I forget the exact sizes But there wasn't a bell but I would treat myself to just a fistful a small a small was nearly a half pound of yogurt Yeah, I guess so damn griff The country's most generous yogurt were like, yeah, you know, I didn't set that
Starting point is 00:52:12 I wasn't I wasn't making tcdy policy decisions juicer I'm just saying that that tcdy is now a nail salon and maybe there's something to that Maybe they were a little too generous into the profits um Wait griffin griffin you haven't been doing seven ounces at a small have you Nobody really uses it anymore, but I want to bring it back so I can ring the cheese bell Sorry, so I can ring the cheese bell. How do I smoothly bring it back? That's from hailey You can't smoothly bring back a bell practice
Starting point is 00:52:47 You just do it do it and it's everyone if you're listening to this Stop I'm gonna make this a year theme soon if we can if we can shoehorn it in Stop waiting for permission. Yep. No one ever got permission to do something interesting Just do it. Well, that's a that's not I would say a catch all uh tag tag line. Obviously not but like Okay, let me let me let me let me rephrase that a way that's more there's more of a blanket statement No one will ask you to innovate. How's that? I don't request you No one's gonna ask you to innovate if they thought of it. They would have done it. You've got the bell
Starting point is 00:53:27 Look in your hand. There's a bell ringer This is that peel away in line with what I was going to say just which my advice is ring it, right? And then someone says what are you doing? Just don't no couching just say That's what you do When you cut a perfect increment not I thought we could start doing this or that's what they used to do Just statement of fact. This is what's done. This is what you do, right? This is how it's done And maybe they've worked there longer than you or they're new it doesn't matter if you make it a statement of fact
Starting point is 00:54:00 This is what you do when you do this done this then they will be like, oh, oh, I didn't know that That's the only response to that kind of confidence Yeah, it was just okay Listen the alternative is you just got a bell Why do we have a bell here, Todd? If we're not supposed to be ringing it when we cut a perfect increment Yeah, I will say uh, but along these same lines one time. I was at a a traitor josephs And uh, there's a bell there hanging next to the checkout. Um, and I Mistakenly believe that one rings that bell when it's like, hey, I got good service
Starting point is 00:54:33 I want everyone to know and it is not you what you ring the bell when uh, you need help with the check out or Or when the they need some the people working there. I did not know that I thought I thought it was for customers to be like great job trader jose ring a ding ding ding Yeah, now griffin you think that's wild because you know the truth, right, right but If you didn't know that it was for employees to use and there's a bell hanging there within arms reach of the general public Yeah, wouldn't you think like this must be for me because this can't be the system they use to contact one another in the year 2021 right they're not sailors on an old ship
Starting point is 00:55:16 This is what I'm saying. This can't be the most effective means when I've been in other grocery stores where they can get on a microphone and say Hey, Todd come help me bag Yeah Right, so the bell must be there for fun For my enjoyment. This is what I'm saying the bell can't be there for oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize this is a work bell Yeah, business bell. Yeah, good point. Trav. Thank you I just don't want tweets. I bet that minimums back. Oh hell. Yeah, man. Fuck yeah with carnage and shit Yeah, carnages. I hope spider-man's in this one
