Yeah.

It's interesting that we're figuring people out by how we observe them vicariously.

We're talking about it in the context of like a meet and greet a second ago.

What you said there tracks perfectly with that, which is when you walked in the room, you didn't just speak to me.

You also asked Berta, who's recording the podcast today, what her name was.

And then you said to Berta, you said, thank you for doing this.

Right.

Now, isn't it funny that I remember?

Yeah.

Isn't it funny that that was like two and a half hours ago?

And I remember because it was really memorable to me that you did that because not everybody does that.

Not everybody will, you know, notice that Bud is in the room with us and she's running all these cameras and she's putting it together.

But for some reason, just before we started recording, you made a point of asking her what her name was and then thanking her for doing this today.

Yeah.

Most people don't do that.

And as you walk away from today, I'm not going to remember like that you walked in and said something nice about me or whatever.

The most shocking thing and therefore the most memorable because it is the most unusual because it is typically the most overlooked is you acknowledging the other people.

And…

I've noticed this as a paradox that I almost need to put words to.

But I remember something I wrote a long time ago saying how useless absurdity will define you more than useful practicality.
