Come Out Ye Black and Tans being from the 60s and not the 20s is like this for me.

Repeat after me:

I am not pluckier than John Titor.
I am not pluckier than Phoebe Bridgers.
I am not pluckier than Ice Spice.
I am not pluckier than Stevie Nicks.

But if I stand back and watch and learn,
I will be pluckier than I am.

There was an earlier WTF where he was talking to a Canadian actress who was trying to get a US green card in the early 90s when no one was getting them. The lady went into some immigration guys office and it was full of star wars merch and one of her letters of reference was from George Lucas.

To the extent he's maybe serious about this, for a guy that's never once expressed a remotely religious opinion, what does he think he needs to do?

Watching an episode of Frasier where Daphne forgot to go pick up Martin and she goes "why didn't you call me?"

"I was afraid if I got up and left, youd show up and Id miss you"

Problems no one has anymore.
