Well, and so I feel like it's, I don't want it to come across like I'm suggesting even a little bit that we should just introduce our young children to more violence in video games and media. Right. Because because it's uncertain. But I think it's it's not it's disingenuous to present the case that violence in media leads to violence in real life because it's uncertain. We just don't.

It's not clear. If it were clear, we would know. And it's not we're demonizing it. It's a we're demonizing it. It always has. It's a moral panic. Yeah. So I think it's fascinating. And I'm not going to say I don't want to go play my video game after we talk about this. That's what I've learned is that talking about wrath just makes me want to go exercise some demons.

Tom's doing great. Tom's jaw is locked on some bark around a tree. A quote from Shirley by Charlotte Bronte. You do not know how the people of this country bear malice. It is the boast of some of them that they can keep a stone in their pocket seven years, turn it at the end of that time, keep it seven years longer, and hurl it and hit their mark at last.

The phenomenon of the beep back. The phenomenon of the beep back. What would that possibly have been? No, I don't. Oh, was this a horn related event? It was definitely horn related. Yeah, where somebody does something and you honk at them or you get honked at and it's like a reciprocal honking. Is it something like that? Correct.

I've had that wish. I've had that wish.

I want them to drive on their rims for a little while. Yeah.

Okay. Here's what hits me first. Do you have daddy issues? No. What hits me first is that Wrath, as we've been talking about it, feels very much like the... It's the example of loss of control, right? We're talking about the Hulk, right? It's just like you lose control. And... Loss of control, when you feel unsafe, that is also an example of loss of control.

And so it makes sense to me where if I'm scared because I am on the verge of losing control of my vehicle somehow, that I would end up lashing out in that sort of immediate wrath, that hormonal wrath, because that is what's going to fuel me to regain control.

irrationally irrationally it's almost like making your heartbeat faster so blood goes to the places where it needs it almost right it's almost like a burst of adrenaline we're we're neanderthals you and me we're neanderthals right we're hanging around at the fire pit and we happen to have clubs and let's just say uh i do something that makes you feel out of control and your first instinct is

in that wrathful environment might just be to hit me over the head. And what doing that will do is put you back in control, right? Okay, right. That puts you back into control. So doesn't that make sense that that would be the thing that you wish is essentially violence on others, right? But it puts you back in a position of power and authority.

Or even better, my relationship with my mind powers to pop all their tires makes the world safer because they're a danger. That's interesting. They're so dangerous. I'm doing a service. Yeah. I am John wicking the roads. Mine was a little bit different than yours.
