question No, she said she couldn't see she couldn't say she couldn't see what she was typing.

So what does it have to do with their cell phone now

it's it's not showing up on the screen. Oh

so in other words, you just got to read it so it might be just like a thing issue where she just got to brighten it up probably in the whole thing of work but

I know now she's not here but look she's not here. She was freaking out the cell phone Yeah, cuz

she was freaking out.

That's our dependency on cell phone. Yeah, I'm the same way are you yeah if I can't find my phone I have to like do a whole thing you do calm myself down think about my last stabs rip apart the house. Quality I know it's on silent.

Yeah, so you have find my phone. You know I do. And

I don't know if you use it. I just panic. Okay, next time with the easier

use Find My Phone. Okay. But everybody's so codependent on their phones. Now. It's scary, like more than a wallet. Right

one and you can even put your phone on your your wallet on your phone. Yeah.

But if you had to lose one thing, your phone or your wallet, what would you say? Your wallet.

Now? I think I would say phone because you could just wipe out the phone. Oh, while it is like you know your personal identification, your credit card, your insurance cards. Yeah. To go through all out the DMV. The DMV is the same way. It was a 99. The same Harvell Yep. Thank you experience.

i This is a true story about the DMV, my friend. My friend walked into the DMV, okay. And there was this guy there. It was in Connecticut and Stanford and the guy's name was Mr. Seamon. Believe it or not, all right. He's Fallon. S e i m e, and I can't believe I remember it. And he was such a miserable mother. That my friend Rob walked in there and the guy started chipping his cubes and Rob Rob said, you know, you were probably the most miserable rotten human being I've ever met in my life.

I've heard that before. Wow, these

20 Something year olds I was at the gym and he's got the he's Yeah, he's got the the video thing you know, he's got his camera on.

Selfies. Working out video. i Wow. What is that job? It's the world. That's the world we're in. So

I walked up to him. Yo, bro, what are you doing? Are you gotta be kidding me. Right? And he just stared at me and I walked away. I can't believe it's za they do it. They take pics everybody. Are you a food person that you take? If you're out? And you're taking a picture of the food like to me it's like, who cares?

Well, I mean, if someone like cook something that's really spectacular. I'll capture it for I don't know maybe on vacation but there are people who legit post what they had for breakfast lunch and dinner. I don't know. And we don't know.

And what is what the selfie thing like there. Everything is up high right angle Charlie. They take pictures of themselves. It drives me nuts. Well,

I like the higher up. Yeah,

How do they become like you know, how do they get all these followers they must do something outrageous, right? Do they are they take a picture of them? I think it's

all different things. Oh, right. Because there has to be something about you that's different and captivating and relatable. I'm all these followers right?

I have a whole thing with social media like, I don't post my kids. Yeah, no, I don't because it's I don't know who's seeing it. You can say, Oh, I have privacy settings. And I'm only friends with friends and family on Facebook. But yeah, your friend is clicking on it. And all of their friends are seeing what they clicked on. Yeah, you know, like to me that's that's too. It's too far fetched for me for my mind to know that, like, my kids pictures are just out there. Yeah, it's like for me, social media and why

05:57

I don't none of us are that important. I don't get it.

Well, for some people, I guess it's how they see their family or I don't know, stay up to date when he just looked
