What is the latest trend in cosmetic procedures?
What if I can make it only me and none of them? Can I just not hear them?
You guys always have it cold in here. Is it too hot? Oh, they're dirty. No, I just have a turtle neck on.
What's your glasses cleaning move? Oh, just rubbing it against straight dry. Is this not right? Just real dry.
You make it wet?
I fog it up.
Oh, sometimes, yeah, sometimes.
The human body has its own Amazon device.
What are you talking about?
You fog it up.
Hold on, I'm gonna move.
I'm not in my spot. Using the temperature of the human body and then you wipe it down. It has its own Amazon device.
Is that okay if I do it wrong? I do everything right. Can I do this one thing wrong?
I feel like there are micro abrasions throughout the lens. Oh, you're gonna have micro abrasions like crazy.
Yeah, these things suck. You know, I wore broken glasses for three years before I finally was like, I deserve to upgrade these. I just, I don't like taking care of myself. I don't enjoy the act of taking care of myself.
Something I think about a lot is the invention of the mirror. I've been thinking about this a lot lately. Screw that person. And if it hadn't been for that, you wouldn't have to. We wouldn't have cameras.
We wouldn't even have cameras if it weren't for the invention of the mirror.
Do we think a person, there's a person who invented the mirror? As opposed to? A discovery?
A discovery of a thing.
Of a thing that had already existed.
The thing I think about all the time is, like, if you got a haircut in the year, like, you know, six, would you just have to, like, go down to the lake and be like, does this look good? Be like, no, nobody f***ing splash.
And then what if you look at it too long because you're so handsome?
What if you look at each other like that? Yeah, exactly. And then you're Narcissus. Yes.
That's right. That'll echo a Narcissus. Narcissus. That's right.
Justus von Liebig.
Found or invented.
Is credited with inventing the silvered glass mirror. In what year do you think this was? 1800. Eustace? Teen. German chemist.
German chemist? German chemist. How late is it? I'm surprised. It had to be early. This feels like one of those things where if we look it up someplace else, they're going to be like, a Chinese dude invented this a thousand years before. Admittedly, I always have to say this now.
This is the AI overview.
Isn't that crazy that now, more than ever, I feel like, well, I should say I got this from the internet.
So God only knows.
McGill University has backed this up separately. I'm putting him at...
13.05. I think it's like creepy late. But I don't want to be so wrong that it's embarrassing. So I'll say five years after what he said.
That's another Jeopardy. This is Price is Right.
Get your game shows right. We're not all the same.
The price is wrong. 1835. That's what I said.
Okay. Check the tape. I said an 18. I said an 18. You don't get to be friends with them at any of that. You said earlier, I was like, oh, I feel stupid.
There's no way.
Damn it, Katie. Believe in yourself.
You're telling me none of those people, King Tut, none of those had a mirror?
No, because I think once we got the mirror, then we got the lens, then everything changed. Like glasses happened and all that.
But you wouldn't have needed any of that.
Are you doing a Don Draper sales pitch for mirrors right now?
Yeah, I think.
Or maybe they had reflective surfaces that weren't mirrors. Is that possible? I don't even know what that would be.
Let me give you some fine print on Eustace von Liebig in 1835. Okay. A discovery by the great German chemist Eustace von Liebig in 1835 made mirrors widely available. Liebig found a way to coat glass with a thin layer of metallic silver... by depositing the metal directly by means of a chemical reaction. So when it comes to the question, according to McGill University's page, how are mirrors made?
