I'm not, I like it. I'm here. I'm, I'm all on board. Um, but yeah, it's a, uh, it was an unintentional thing. And, and a lot of times opens up conversations that are nice, sometimes very awkward.

And I was like, oh, wow. And again, but also, at that point, you picked a sexual preference for me at that point. You don't know me at that point. I mean, I guess maybe it would be harder to go down on guys with this.

And as a gap tooth man, I'm looking to the, you know, Eddie Murphy and David Letterman. Those are my gap tooth gods. And I'm backstage at Letterman and I run into Biff, stagehand Biff, who was on the show multiple times, also a gap tooth man. Wow.
