0:00.0	I saw a reel from Neil deGrasse Tyson on these being the closest thing we have to aliens. They have like nine hearts, a couple of brains. I did not know that. Cut off their arm, it goes back. Well, that part I knew. I remember that. Each one of their tentacles can see, feel, touch, smell, taste. I don't eat, I don't eat octopus. Okay, you don't?
0:21.2	But I eat colomariate squid. Okay. I don't know why I draw a distinction. It's not that big. I saw a documentary about how intelligent octopi are. Yep. And I just- Good use of plural there. So the problem is we go to like, we go to chema. We go to like all these like Mediterranean restaurants and everybody gets the grilled octopus.
0:39.7	Yeah.
0:40.2	You know, I used to like it a lot. But now you feel bad. That's why I'm wasting away. Denise, here's where I'm at. Tell me. I don't know if this is my age or my personality.
0:57.9	I'm now at a stage where I eat out of the restaurant

2:00.9	Because the thing that they dial it into is always by the kitchen. Yep. Fine. I see it. Then they come back. Then I have to look at it and pretend that I'm looking at it. And then signing the tip. So when the toast thing came along. Yeah. Okay. I loved it. Yeah. And I'm, I own shares of toast to stock. But like, can I have a check? Yes, here it is right here. I have the control. I just want to press a button. Literally the last forkful. I want to drop the fork and walk out of the restaurant. Now, I don't know if that's neat. Did you ever achieve that?
