No, I'm just like that.

You've set me off.

Let's do it.

Oh, no.

I was like, oh, I could just go on like such a tangent of like asking you about this because we've just done like all these episodes on like the psychology of personal style and micro trends.

And I've been reading so much about fashion psychology recently.

Do you know about enclosed cognition?

I promise to make this a small tangent.

Okay, I do, but you have to tell everybody else about it.

We've talked about it on a recent episode, basically how what you wear actually influences your emotions.

Exactly right.

Includes cognition is one of these tiny psychological concepts.

And the best way to understand it is what you wear influences how you think.

So not just what do other people think about you, but how you think.

And so one way to think about it is perhaps if I'm wearing a very formal suit, that might lead me to be more structured in my thinking, for example, or more rigorous.

If I'm dressed really casually, perhaps that makes me more creative, more open, more expansive.

Did it change what you decided to wear?

Well, I'm actually looking at our outfits and people who are watching on Netflix will see we're basically wearing a version of the exact same outfit.

It is true.

I thought that too.
