Chatter, chatter, chatter. I do. I do.

I don't think guys at home similar guy chains are very specific. I'm only on a few of them. I'm on like one was Wabi Wab for Formula One.

And that's just, you know, so-and-so's getting fired. Yeah, they're fucking they're going to rule that, you know, it's not like with Matt and Charlie, too. Yeah, Matt, Charlie, Jethro, Wobb, myself. Who else is on it, Wobb? That's it. That's it. That's sweet. From all the boys that had to be in communication for F1.

If you see something outrageous in the F1 community, that's where you sound off. But there's very little. Legistics. What? Very little logistics happening in there. Correct. And this is maybe, again, I don't know if this is specific to me or this is common gender-wise, but there's a lot of things. And you're not a fan of a lot of these methodologies I have. And I agree, they're flawed.

But for me, they're most efficient. Like, I don't ever ask. When there's 20 people over, I don't say, who's in the mood for sushi? It's like, I know this group. I know what people like. A bunch of food will arrive and no one will care. As long as there's food there.

Yeah, I don't do the hour and 20 minutes to order thing.

Yeah. And yeah, exactly. And I'm not angry at the other approach other than when I'm hungry. I'm like, oh my God, how long is it going to take everyone to decide on this? And then everyone's got anyways. So similarly, it's like, here's a time to do a thing if you want to or not. There's never a bunch of haggling over it or fine tuning. Also a window that I would have never all blessings to my wife.

That's confusing to me. Starts at noon, dinners at four.

It's too gray. No. Like, if I'm at home, like, what does that mean? When are people coming? Do people come two hours before dinner?

Like, I wouldn't have told them when dinner starts. I would have just said, be here at two. A split in the middle.

We have to know, like, what— I cooked the most in my house yesterday.

I made five trays of shitty biscuits. You did. Four pounds. Biggest yield ever. That was—they were fantastic. Fantastic. How many do you eat?

That's a good amount.

Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. Great. I don't know, four hours, take your pick, throw a dart at the board. Seems a little, and we got what we sowed, which is like you wandered in at 2.30, someone was there at 1.45, someone came at 3.

Yeah. I want to open the door like I'm in Sweden. Have you heard this joke about Swedish people?

Like if you throw a party and you announce it to your coworkers that I'm having a party at 5 p.m., they say in Sweden, the doorbell will ring. And when you open the door, all 52 guests will be there at two minutes before. Yeah, they're all there. It's not like one person's early. The whole group will be there at the exact same time.

Uh-huh.

Whenever they're in the mood to get there. Which— They give them a nice four-hour berth and just land somewhere.

That's my point entirely. Think about a Halloween evening party. If there's so much anxiety, it's, they said it starts at eight. No one's probably getting there at eight. You don't want to be the one person there. And then you're like, I guess that really means 10, 15, everyone, right? And you have all this anxiety and you can't plan it right.
