It's a magic number. I actually am loving it, to be honest with you. I'm not one of those guys. I don't think I went through a midlife crisis. Well, we are one of the first generations where we kind of broke the spell of what was expected of us. Because I remember turning 25 and everybody saying, why aren't you married yet? Why aren't you like buying your house yet? And now with the economy crumbling as it is, nobody can. So we were kind of the first generation. So therefore we don't really have a midlife crisis. Yeah, we have to wait for our parents to die to get the house. Yeah. Except for me, I got bills. I got bills when my parents died. But, you know, other people are going to get houses and good for you. You just got bills and trauma. That's it. But yeah, no, it is crazy. Because, yeah, it's almost like people assume that we don't want to, you know, do any of the normal stuff. No, I'd love to do the normal stuff, but you physically can't. It's just not an option, especially in a big city. No, I think my midlife crisis was because I'd been doing entertainment since I was a Wii one. Yeah. And I had never seen a movie, really gone on a date, you know, done these like normal things. I had just been plugging away at life and like working. Yeah. So then I would say for all of like 2020 to 2025 was just like, I want to go to a movie tonight. I want to go to a concert. I want to go on a date. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because yeah, you didn't really do that as much. I mean, you did do it. You didn't, it's not like it wasn't like, you never saw a movie in the movie theater. I can't remember one time in New York City. I mean, we went and saw The Purge. We saw The Purge and I saw one with Mateo, but I'm talking, I was there for 10 years. I can count maybe five times, maybe. Yeah, it helps with the references. Okay. A lot of times I go see like the most popular movie, even if I don't want to see it, just so I could tell jokes about it. There we go. You know, it's almost like that. It's like I'm watching stuff to stay up with society more than I am watching it for my own enjoyment. That's a good way to put it. I did know a girl who would like refuse to watch things and she'd be like,

2:37.5

ER, what's that show? I've never seen it. What's it about? I'm like, it's about the ER, you dumb bitch. Like, what are we talking about here? That's easy to figure out. I've never seen ER and I know what it's about. You know what it's about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

2:48.6

I actually, I watched a couple episodes recently for the first time ever. And it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was got George Clooney in it. Yeah, yeah, no, I was in it. Because I got obsessed with the pit. And I'm like, well, if I like the pit, I might as well assume I like ER. Yeah. And so I started watching ER. and I'm like, yeah, it's good, but the pit's way better. It's way better. You know what it is?

3:10.3

It's that HBO. It's that HBO kiss gives it that hard edge. Oh, because you can show boobies and blood on it. Yeah. Well, they show some blood in the TV show. I feel like medical blood is like allowed. There's like a gray area when it comes a medical blood, you know,
