All right, let's say you're going to an applebee's,

all right, let's say you're going to an applebee's and you're there with a group of people that you need to impress.

I've got a three- people that you need to impress.

I've got a three-step plan for how to pull this off.

One, you gotta let everybody get a couple of those gallon margaritas in them.

That'll soften them up.

Two, you gotta remember that the bar is set low, so be calm. These are people who are impressed by microwave

imitation pork rib chunks. You've got this thing. Third, and this is the really important part. You need to go memorize

that some general nebulous observation from one of the really big name

classical Greek philosophers and they just wait for somebody to say anything and

drop it right after that and the pro tip here you don't want to go and get like

some fancy obscure philosopher that you go Google or something because if they haven't heard of

him it's not going to work so just stick to the big one Socrates Plato Aristotle

Aristotle in this case we're going with Aristotle so somebody a hoarks back a big

swig of margarita and they say, you know, I'm worried about where

the economy's going.

This is your chance.

You jump in and say, well, according to Aristotle, nature of horrors of vacuum. And everybody's going to be like, you're the best person at the table.

It doesn't matter that you don't know what that means.

I don't know what that means.

I think Sir Isaac Newton knew what that means.

I think Robert Boyle knew what that means. I think Robert Boyle knew what that meant.
