I went to market this week, which I am thinking about maybe doing a small bonus episode for Patreon about market and why we go and what it is.

But basically, in short, it is three skyscrapers full of products.

And we are basically shopping for six months

July, August, September, October, November, December, even January and February for products and gifts for the store.

So things we can sell at Christmas and during the holidays and fall, et cetera. So I go every July.

There's also a January market, but right now I just go in July and I take my mom with me.

But my mom and I noticed this time something we had never seen before.

Interesting.

Which is the use of young male model-looking figures in underwear to sell products that have nothing to

do with underwear. Is it like charred bodies from that episode of Parks and Rec? Yes. You remember

that one? Like the green market. Yes, it took me a minute. But yes, that is exactly what it's like.

And it was like out of nowhere. And I've got to tell you as someone traveling with their mother, not only was that not something I want to see, but this goes back to, I prefer my men blandly handsome. I don't even want to look at you. Yeah. If you are like tan and you only have underwear. If you're above like a six,

Amy doesn't want to look at you.

I'm not interested.

So we were walking and we saw this man with Santa underwear.

Boxers is too generous a word.

And Santa hat and like blinking light necklace.

I don't even know what he was selling.

I just tried to walk past as quickly as possible.

And then we're minding our own business on the escalator

because my mom doesn't do elevators and the elevators are so packed that these are buildings

filled with escalators.
