Welcome, everyone to the RPS Stringk podcast. I'm Nick Shaw and joined by Dr. Mike Isretel.

What's up, man?

Nick, I'm so tired and bored of this, just this whole life.

Existence.

It's so painful to be.

Why doesn't anyone ever talk about that?

You know, they teach you algebra at school and home economics.

No one ever tells you why.

Did you take Homemec when you were in school?

Yes, in the sixth grade.

I was awful at it.

What did you do in Homeck's class?

I remember, like, baking stuff.

We baked some stuff.

They taught us how to wash dishes. Yeah, it's a pretty good skill, I suppose.

They taught us how to wash dishes in an insanely anachronistic way because they told us to fill up the sink with the plug to like a a foot of water and then like it's soap water and

you like wash the dishes in the air and then later you rinse them and I was like is this for

the depression when water was a not nominal thing to pay for like I wash all of my dishes with the

water coming out of the shit I don't fucking have a dipping situation like how much water

are we trying to save it's kind of, make sure to shower only for five minutes.

And when you're not actually washing yourself, lather up with a shower off. I'm sorry, is this World War II England where there's like a water shortage or some shit? That hit me as just totally wild. I think they had those just a thing back in the day because I mean, I remember washing dishes as a kid.

We would do it that way a little bit.
