1. Elon Musk's Awkward Gesture and Public Perception

The episode kicks off with Larry McFeely addressing recent viral images of Elon Musk performing what appeared to be Nazi salutes during public events. Larry emphasizes the importance of context, suggesting that Musk's gestures were likely unintentional and not meant to convey any malintent.

Larry McFeely [01:25]: "I know he's doing the thing. It was awkward. But he's doing a thing where he's kind of like, doing a point out. I don't think he's thinking Nazi now. If he is, I'm wrong."

Larry and Devin delve into the repercussions of such misinterpretations, highlighting how easily innocent gestures can be misconstrued in the digital age. They caution against hastily labeling public figures with historically charged terms like "Nazi," advocating for a more measured and informed approach.

Larry McFeely [05:00]: "We got to stop with the whole next Hitler Nazi thing now. Also stopped is the hand gesture. Just don't do that."

2. Historical Insight: Unity Mitford and Hitler's Personal Life

The conversation shifts to a historical anecdote shared by Devin, revealing details from the diaries of Unity Mitford, Hitler's secret English girlfriend. These diaries provide intimate insights into Hitler's daily life from 1935 to 1939, shedding light on a lesser-known facet of his personality.

Devin [03:48]: "Diary of Hitler's Secret English girlfriend reveals intimate details the furor that led up to World War II. This woman in England named Unity Mitford."

Larry adds context by reflecting on the complexities of such relationships, underscoring the dangers of idolizing or humanizing notorious figures without recognizing their profound impact on history.

Larry McFeely [04:25]: "But exterminating the Jews. One of those takes precedence... We got to stop with the whole next Hitler Nazi thing now."

3. Commentary on Public Perception of Wealth and Misuse of Comparisons to Hitler

Larry offers a critical perspective on the societal tendency to compare contemporary leaders and wealthy individuals to Hitler. He argues that such comparisons are both unfounded and harmful, fueling unnecessary divisions and overshadowing genuine societal issues.

Larry McFeely [05:55]: "Don't bitch when somebody makes more than you and then start calling it an oligarchy when you're sitting there complaining that MSNBC doesn't give you 30 million a year anymore for 52 shows a year."

He further critiques inconsistencies in public reactions to wealth and success, highlighting the irrationality of deriding others' achievements while faltering to appreciate one's own.

Larry McFeely [06:32]: "My success is not their failure. That's it. Period. And somebody else much more successful than me is not because I didn't get what I deserve. I'm getting what I am getting what I get."

4. Personal Anecdote: Larry's DIY Bike Rack Fiasco

The heart of the episode features Larry recounting his ill-fated attempt to install new bike mounts in his garage. What was intended to be a simple DIY project quickly escalated into a comedic disaster, complete with multiple drilling mishaps, cracked walls, and personal injuries.

Installation Attempt and Initial Failures

Larry describes his initial efforts to secure bike racks on brick walls, detailing the challenges faced with misaligned studs and improper tools. His attempts resulted in numerous holes and ultimately failed to support the bike racks.

Larry McFeely [07:53]: "I bought four bike racks for my bikes. I have four bikes that I have hung off my ceiling, and I don't like what I've done with that."

Escalation to Physical Injury

As Larry continues, his frustration mounts. During a particularly troublesome drilling attempt, he unintentionally causes his tools to overheat, leading to severe burns on his thumb and fingers.

Larry McFeely [13:04]: "I have burns on my thumb and fingers."

He vividly describes the pain and the subsequent failure of the bike rack installation, leaving his garage marked with numerous holes and unmounted bikes.

Larry McFeely [14:37]: "I've never felt a pain like I felt grabbing the threads of that screw coming out of that cement wall. That was live. I've touched fire. It was burning like I've never felt a burn in my life."

Reflection and Humorous Self-Critique

In hindsight, Larry humorously acknowledges his lack of handyman skills, poking fun at himself and highlighting the disparity between his confidence and his actual abilities.

Larry McFeely [16:37]: "Leave your handyman work for a day labor. That's so true. And it made me admire Mexicans. It made me anybody. I can't do anything. I am pathetic."

He concludes by advising listeners to seek professional help for similar tasks, underscoring the importance of expertise over self-reliance in certain situations.

Larry McFeely [19:30]: "No, not. I'm just saying. But you could move it over enough and try to cover."

5. Light-Hearted Banter and Final Thoughts

The episode wraps up with light-hearted exchanges among the hosts, teasing each other about their respective mishaps and skills. Larry emphasizes the importance of humility and laughter in the face of failure.

Larry McFeely [20:54]: "Look, if she. If I came home, there were four bike racks on the bricks, and it was like I killed myself. I probably. Probably fail at that. Yeah, I'm an idiot."

He humorously advises listeners to share in his embarrassment, fostering a sense of camaraderie and relatability.

Larry McFeely [21:43]: "If you see me, don't touch my hand. I might do a little Elon Musk thing with this one just to wave to you because it hurts when the air hits it."

[Larry McFeely]

For the amazing people at the Core Institute, life can throw you a curveball now and again. One day you're trucking along, feeling great. Next day your dog smashes into your head and knocks you cold. Or like a KUPD listener told me this week, his dog did a sprint across the backyard directly into the side of his wife's leg and blew her knee up. She needed that need to get fixed and fixed, right? Two years later, she's running like she used to again. And it's all thanks to the Core Institute. I went through it, too. And you can get rid of your pain and start saying, yes, I can to all the things you want to do. And. And all you have to do is trust the experts at the Core Institute head there right now. The Core Institute.com youm thought that was funny?

[Brady]

You were laughing like a hyena when he said it. What the hell is wrong with you?

[Larry McFeely]

I'm sorry. I'm distracted because I have. I'll tell you about it in a second, but I have a real problem right now, and it's not good. Anyway, I'll tell you about this in a second.

[Devin]

Oh, boy.

[Larry McFeely]

You're gonna be real happy with it. Also, everybody who's sending me the pictures of Elon Musk doing the Nazi salute twice. Okay. No. Everybody can get caught waving or pointing at something at the perfect time with a picture. Make it look like you're doing a Nazi salute. There's countless amounts of times in your life that you've waved to someone and kept your hand up. And if somebody snapped a picture right as your elbow tightened.

[Devin]

No. Have you seen it?

[Larry McFeely]

Yeah, I've seen it. And I know he's doing the thing. I know he knocked on his chest first and then did the thing. It was awkward. It was awkward. But he's doing a thing where he's kind of like, doing a point out. I don't think he's thinking Nazi now. If he is, I'm wrong.

[Devin]

But unfortunately, that's the first thing that comes to mind.

[Larry McFeely]

I have done this. Yeah. There is a photo of me in my mom's house where in a baseball game, I pat my chest and I remember that part, and I point to a guy who just made a play.

[Devin]

Okay. That's one thing.

[Larry McFeely]

Pointing it was that my hand is Nazi salute out. Like, you got it.

[Devin]

I thought it was a Star Trek, you know, salute, because they do that.

[Larry McFeely]

Whatever he was doing, we got to stop. This is the type of crap that causes the division in our country, that makes people want to argue for or against whether or not Nazis rule the world. We got to stop. Hitler was a one off. A complete and absolute one off. If we start seeing it again, we'll know not everybody you don't like is Hitler. Now, keep in mind, all you people that think Trump is Hitler, okay? All the people that love Trump used to think Obama was Hitler. It's. It's. As I've aged in life, I realize that the opposition almost inevitably always calls the person they don't like the next Hitler. There's not gonna be a next Hitler. At least in front of us like that. It's not gonna be that obvious. I don't think. I don't think they're. Now, if Trump's like, we're gonna change, you know, putting your hand over your heart to a big. Like his, we start looking at that. I think the signs are there until that happens. Stop it with that stuff. It was a goof. He might not have been thinking, give him a little grief. Same as Zuckerberg looking down Lauren Sanchez's shirt. It was a perfect moment for the photograph where you're, like, crying, Jordan. It becomes a meme. And I'm sure it's going to be hilarious. Elon popping up, doing the Hitler salute, and memes. I can't wait for that, to be honest.

[Devin]

By the way, I didn't do it this morning, but I used to have that. You know, every now and then, something would pop up by World War II. Hitler News.

[Larry McFeely]

Yeah.

[Devin]

There is a little Hitler news. Diary of Hitler's Secret English girlfriend reveals intimate details the furor that led up to World War II. This woman in England named Unity Mitford.

[Larry McFeely]

A lot of diaries back then.

[Brett]

Yeah.

[Devin]

Was hanging out with Hitler from basically 1935 to 1939. No one ever knew. This diary was just, you know, it's.

[Larry McFeely]

80 years old, and Hitler's thinking.

[Devin]

She basically recorded every day here this is guma. It was. But Ava Braun knew about her.

[Larry McFeely]

But you look well.

[Brett]

I wouldn't. Your dating hit me a new one.

[Larry McFeely]

The worst thing he's doing is not cheating on you.

[Devin]

She said he was a ball of energy.

[Larry McFeely]

It's like if you're Hitler's girlfriend. You're like, he's cheating. And also exterminating the Jews. One of those takes precedent.

[Brett]

Could be worse.

[Larry McFeely]

Over your feelings. I'm sorry. He's kind of not the most loyal guy in the world. But he's. He's definitely got a bigger fish to fry over now. I shouldn't even use that phrase. Anyway. And we all get into those moments. But we got to stop with the whole next Hitler Nazi thing now. Also stopped is the hand gesture. Just don't do that. This is Devin Said. Elon's autistic ass is a fan of the Roman Empire. And they used to do that salute as a sign of respect. The old gladiator Caesar. Right?

[Devin]

Or the general.

[Larry McFeely]

It got ruined. Just like the swastika used to mean peace. It got wrecked. Can't do it anymore. But let's not. Let's not jump all over. Over everything as immediate.

[Devin]

You're right. I mean, when I saw. I laughed.

[Larry McFeely]

Funny.

[Devin]

But do I think that's why he's doing it?

[Larry McFeely]

No. And that's why we gotta. We gotta loosen up. Because Rachel Maddow will say that, you know, she was talking crazy after I loved watching msnbc. Their lives are over. They are so upset and mad and I mean, everything's on fire. And the one thing she. She was complaining about. Look at all the billionaires. These people who all they are. She makes $30 million a year and does a show one night a week.

[Brett]

What?

[Larry McFeely]

Yeah. They just cut her 5 million a year because MSNBC is out of money. So she's cut back to $25 million a year to be the kind of face of MSNBC when they need her. But she only does one show a week. I don't want to hear you complain about striving for wealth just because they've got more than you. That makes it all relative. Because there's plenty of people. $30 million a year seems a little excessive too. I'm not getting in anybody's pockets. You make all the money you want to make. But don't bitch when somebody makes more than you and then start calling it an oligarchy when you're sitting there complaining that MSNBC doesn't give you 30 million a year anymore for 52 shows a year.

[Devin]

That's what I said to somebody that was like that. I go, so the job that you're doing right now, if they turn around, said, you know, we. We've been doing fantastic. In fact, we've grown a lot. We want to pay you 15 million a year. You're going to say no? Well, that's different.

[Larry McFeely]

I talked to a girl who worked here who was mad at Tripp, won't give anybody a raise, not even a dollar, because he's too busy spending all his money mopping everything up. And I'm like, I make more than Tripp. You're complaining to me? What are you talking about? Like you don't know what you're talking about. You're just mad. You can't even see. It's like what Chappelle said this weekend. This is precisely why I hate poor people, is because they can't see through their own pain. It's a great line. I've been saying it for years. I don't want to hear you complain about your problems. It's not. My success is not. Your failure. That's it. Period. And somebody else much more successful than me is not because I didn't get what I deserve. I'm getting what I am getting what I get. It's not them getting more. No bearing on my life. And I don't deserve any money as a man anymore ever again. And I'll tell you exactly why. Brett, you're handy. And you can't change windshield wipers, but you're still handy. I would put you as handiest man in this room.

[Brett]

Okay.

[Larry McFeely]

Because you're mechanical, right? Toledo. Probably second. Brady, I'm gonna put you third, even though that's just a gift, because I am useless. I bought four bike racks for my bikes. I have four bikes that I have hung off my ceiling, and I don't like what I've done with that. And by the way, I've got hooks for the bikes, and I screwed them into the. The studs in the ceiling. In between each stud is another drill hole until I find the next one. So there's about 37 to 40 holes across the top of my garage that have been puttied up poorly. And I found four studs. Well, thought I found four studs. Three. Because finally the fourth bike came out of the earth, out of the ceiling, crumbled to the ground. So it wasn't. It was hanging by a corner of a stud. So what time?

[Devin]

Late night.

[Larry McFeely]

Oh, no. I was right in the garage, and I went to get the other Bike out. And that one came out and it came tearing out of the ceiling. It was just hanging by half a. So I'm like, all right, that's my bad. Should have drilled one more hole. I'd have found it kind of. I kind of edged the stud. So I'm like, there it is. And I screwed this thing in there. It was about right. And the thing hung on as long as it could. So I said to myself, I got to get bike racks for the wall. This is a terrible system I got here.

[Brett]

So I find the stud though.

[Larry McFeely]

No, they're on the wall. So normally I brick walls.

[Brett]

Okay.

[Larry McFeely]

So I had. I purchased the bike. So I go online, I look at the bike racks and I grab these awesome tire width bike racks that screw into your wall and then swivel so the bikes lay on their side against the wall and overlap each other. It's like book pages. Really cool. So I'm like, oh, this is going to require some measuring, which I can do. This is going to work out. This ends so badly. So first off, I need four. So I go online. Quantity four. Boom. Each pack, four bike racks. I've got 16 bike racks.

[Devin]

Nice.

[Larry McFeely]

Shows up in this heavy ass box. So that's what I thought. I'm like, for the future, I'll fill it. I'll make the whole garage full of these. It's easy peasy. It's two screws and you're in. Go over to the brick wall.

[Brett]

It's brick. What can go on? Just drill right in there.

[Larry McFeely]

I got a drill, pilot hole. It says the next thing goes right in. The pilot hole gets in there. Yeah, it anchors in. Well, it's a bolt. That screw until it's not right. Yeah, that doesn't keep going. And it's also hand. So I'm like, this ain't gonna fly. So I go and buy cement, screw anchor things that they just punch right through. Yeah, right. They don't though. And also they're Phillips heads. So the drill is just slipping out, stabbing the wall. So I finally get one up. Like this is gonna put the bike on. It pulls the wall. Feels like just chunks of brick, concrete, I don't know. So chunked it out. I'm like, damn it.

[Devin]

I don't know.

[Larry McFeely]

Eight holes later because I mismeasured once. And then the second one was just in the mortar. So that's not gonna work. So I got hole, hole, hole, hole. A couple more drilled here. Then I'm like, these are too high. So I started drilling holes lower. And then so I'm like, this is good. Morning sickness. Disgusting. They say things that are horrible. Radiate upd.

[Wayne]

Hey, it's Larry McFeely here with Wayne from Amco And Wayne, now that it's getting warmer, I turned on the AC in my car and the air is blowing kind of cool, but it really smells like a basement.

[Larry McFeely]

What can I do about that, Larry?

[Larry]

Your car's AC system should be checked and serviced every year. Plus, replacing the cabin air filter helps the air blow strong and takes away any nasty smell.

[Larry McFeely]

Nice.

[Wayne]

Is that a big deal to get done?

[Larry]

Not at all. It takes about an hour, and in most cases, we can do it while you wait.

[Wayne]

That's awesome.

[Larry]

I'll say we're Amco.

[Wayne]

Google Amco for your nearest location. That's Amco double a MCO transmissions and a whole lot more.

[Larry McFeely]

Holmberg's morning sickness. And then I put one of those. What do they call those? Those anchor molle things there. But I decided I'm gonna go for one that's like steel now. This thing ain't coming out of the wall. Still haven't hung one yet. We're about two hours in. It's simple. I mean, this is two screws and a bike. Simple. Put the first metal. It just looks like. Like it would dig into the earth for months. It was like an auger bit. Yeah, it's just like a scientific science fiction thing. Put it in the little pilot thing I drilled and I put the drill on that, and I start going and it starts spinning and spinning and spinning and spinning and spinning. And it just keeps going. And I'm like, well, this isn't good. So I back it out and I grabbed was on fire.

[Devin]

Oh, yeah.

[Larry McFeely]

I have burns on my thumb and fingers.

[Brett]

Fix it.

[Larry McFeely]

That made me throw the drill and my fingers hurt. My thumb and finger. I can't sizzled currently right now.

[Brett]

Oh, this is recently yesterday.

[Larry McFeely]

The worst pain of my life. Then I decided this is gonna happen. That I took a hammer and started slamming things into the wall to anchor it there because I couldn't get the drill to not just spin. I got two Molle anchors in there. Put the screws in, pop it back up. Bike's hanging. I go to twist it. Brick comes out. Twelve holes in the wall. No bike rack. Oh, my bikes are back up in the ceiling. So what I'm saying here, long story short, I'm selling 16 bike racks. You guys are interested? The first eight need screws because I bent or broke all of those.

[Brett]

All right, you got a picture of these things?

[Larry McFeely]

I may be interested.

[Brett]

Meanwhile, Dan Holmberg sitting there in Texas.

[Larry McFeely]

Yeah, he's in Texas going, there's a disturbance in the forest. My gay son's trying to be handy. I. I thought I had a son.

[Devin]

And I'm sending high yellow.

[Larry McFeely]

I have never felt a pain like I felt grabbing the threads of that screw coming out of that cement wall. That was live. I've touched fire. Wasn't even close this. It stuck to my finger. It sizzled deep down to the bone.

[Devin]

Because it was hot enough, but it just wasn't glowing.

[Larry McFeely]

If it was orange, I would have been like, hey, warning. But it was still silver. And I went to grab it, and you heard, and everything got thrown. Everything. I'll take a picture of the wall that I tried to do this on. It's an embarrassment. It looks like the St. Valentine's Day massacre wall. There's just holes.

[Devin]

So it's eight racks because you had to open the other racks to get to the school kit again first.

[Larry McFeely]

Ye. Yes. So there was one rack that went up, and then one of them I got that tore out of the wall. The screw is now stuck in the hole where the anchor is, and I can't back it out because it'll slice my fingers off. So I had to get, like, a pair of channel locks and try to. But I'm not doing that. That one just went in the trash. So then I went and grabbed another one. I'm like, I got 16 of these. I got. I got 12 failures. If I. All I need is four. Three of them I went through that are no good anymore. One bent because I busted it. And then I'm down to, like, my last two bags of bolts and screws.

[Devin]

Could they still go on the wall?

[Larry McFeely]

Oh, yeah. Oh, the ones that I wrapped that room.

[Devin]

Yeah. I mean, like, you got 12 holes, right?

[Larry McFeely]

Well, yeah, but, I mean, I can't put them in there. They're.

[Devin]

No, not. I'm just saying. But you could move it over enough and try to cover.

[Larry McFeely]

Oh yeah, I can scooch over. That's where the more holes came from. My first mistakes, about an inch and a half over. I would do another set of holes and then I didn't realize that the inch and a half over after the third set, the bottom was going into the mortar and I already drilled the top hole. I can drill a hole like nobody's business. If you need a guy for a job that'll drill holes, I'm great at it after the fact. Terrible. And don't email me like, you suck. I'm. I'm telling you I suck. It isn't insulting for you to come up with a joke on that. I beat you to it. I know I suck. I have two. Literally almost went to the hospital. I put butter on my fingers. It was burning like I've never felt a burn in my life and I've never heard of that before. The screw gets so hot you can't touch it. Horrifying.

[Devin]

Yeah. Drill bits get hot.

[Larry McFeely]

It wasn't the bit. It was the thing. The bit was it. It was the. The Molle anchor, whatever they call it, whatever's doing the friction, it was just spinning. And I went to just pop it off the edge of the. The. Oh. So bad. It says leave your handyman work for a day labor. That's so true. And it made me admire Mexicans. It made me anybody. I can't do anything. I am pathetic. When. And I grew up with a man who was responsible for building stadiums. Footprint center, the football stadium, the. The whatever. The Greyhound Dial building is now the entire Phoenix Civic Center. The Super Dial stuff too.

[Brett]

Or.

[Larry McFeely]

Huh.

[Brett]

They do the Superdome or something up there.

[Larry McFeely]

He wasn't on that, but his company was. Yeah, they built all the stadium, any stadium.

[Devin]

West Virginia.

[Larry McFeely]

West Virgini. Your silly Cincinnati stadiums are all his. The company he was with, he never let me touch any of the stuff. He knew. He knew at an early age, he knew, like, my name was, you know, Jeeves, that my future was in nothing close to any like that. He. He saw. You know, when you meet a kid when he's like 4, you know he's gay. And nobody can say it yet, but you knew. And then he grows up. And like I knew that kid was gay when he was 4. He's dressed up like Wonder Woman every day. It wasn't even Halloween.

[Brett]

So he never brought you a job site going, that's my boy.

[Larry McFeely]

No, the one time he took me to the job site, a guy asked if I was his daughter, and he got mad and told made me get a haircut that day in the car. Door shut, you're getting a haircut. Cause his manly co workers get me. El Camino thought I was a bra. No, it was the work truck. Oh. He'd sit down at me like a pig pen dust. I always thought that was neat in my dad's truck. Cause that's what a gay kid would do as he hops in a car and sits down and smoke. Your car's dusty. All right? Don't twink around when I take it out of there. If your mother was home, you'd be home. So I'm not going to ask for help. I figured it out. I just need someone to give me tips on how to fill bricks. But I got a lot of holes in my wall. Call Dan up.

[Brett]

Having some high yellow down.

[Larry McFeely]

High yellow shooting over would be good, I think, if high yellow was there. But what have you been doing? Drilling holes in the wall for no reason whatsoever? See, there's no not. Like I said, there was a reason. High yellow looks kind of random to me. If you looked at it, you'd be like, was there a plan? No. The plan was this is gonna go real easy. That's not the case. Nothing's easy for me. And then I go online and watch the dude do it.

[Brett]

No problems.

[Devin]

And you're like, three, four seconds.

[Larry McFeely]

No. He was doing the same thing I was doing, only his was working. Is he the magazine you put a little dash needs drills right in. But his was wood walls. Nobody was showing me brick. But it's just a wall of holes now.

[Brett]

You know, I got Troy Michael to help you out.

[Larry McFeely]

They're more manly than I guarantee. They're both more helpful and handy than I am. If you need anything done at the house, I am not the guy they can drill. Oh, they can drill. They love power tools. I guarantee you if you take a dong off the end of the drill. Because I'm sure they've got. I'm sure they've got. I'm sure they've got a DeWalt that's got like an 8 inch flopper on the end of it they use all the time. They pop that off. They're as good with a drill as I am. They're probably better at it. I mean, I can drill a hole, but it doesn't mean I've done it right. Oh, and the first one I drilled, I was so proud of myself. Like, this is going to take me five seconds. I line up the Next one. Then I put the rack there. Mismeasured by about an inch and a half. That's a hole for no reason.

[Brett]

There's.

[Devin]

There another one? Yeah, another one.

[Larry McFeely]

Didn't say maybe four words to Megan all day yesterday because I was so in the deal. And she comes in, she goes, how'd it go? Not good. I got band aids and gauze all over my fingers. What'd you do? I burned my fingers. I don't want to talk about it. It's hard work in there, man stuff. Why is there just holes in the way? I don't need you looking at it. I'm not done yet. Work in progress. Work in progress. Wear a hard hat around here. You never know what's gonna come down. I think I'm gonna hit a structurally important thing.

[Brett]

The worst part is if she went out there and drilled the hole.

[Larry McFeely]

Look, if she. If I came home, there were four bike racks on the bricks, and it was like I killed myself. I probably. Probably fail at that. Yeah, I'm an idiot. Anyway, just thought I'd share that with you guys because I just touched something, and my hand started on fire again, and it's not showing yet, but the skin moves. Like, I can scooch it around. Like it's blistered off. Yeah. Oh, it hurts so bad. So bad. But anyway, so I'm not a man. This guy says, I want to make fun of you, but I had to drive to U of A to install a shower head for my son. Poor Dan. You're just like, I can do a shower. I think I can do a shower head. I think I put a shower head on before. I'm not. I'm not so sure about taking one off.

[Devin]

I've done both.

[Larry McFeely]

It has to fly off.

[Devin]

It sprays like crazy.

[Larry McFeely]

I'm not sure I can do it.

[Devin]

You can put it on.

[Larry McFeely]

You get that tape? Yeah, White tape. I can do that. Anyway, so all you guys out there can have a nice laugh at my expense. I admit it. Especially you, Brett, Mr. Giggle Box over there. Because I remember that same exact reaction when I'm like, you changed my windshield.

[Brett]

I had a broken wing.

[Larry McFeely]

I don't want to hear it. You didn't have broken wing. You didn't have the ability to tell Brady how to do it. He couldn't reach it.

[Brett]

You've seen what I was dealing with there.

[Devin]

Come on.

[Larry McFeely]

You had a broken arm, and you knew it. I still said you could. I thought I could.

[Devin]

I mean, I.

[Brett]

But I have a broken wing. You had two good wings.

[Larry McFeely]

I'm and still couldn't. None of us could. Brady, in fairness, was probably the most handicapped on the whole windshield wiper change because. Because he couldn't reach two stepper. Yeah. You looked so sad reaching over the hood of the car like the windshield was a mountain. Anyway, so there. So that's. If you see me, don't touch my hand. I might do a little Elon Musk thing with this one just to wave to you because it hurts when the air hits it. And to all you guys, you know what you that's the end of this message.
