Something cuts you off in traffic, you're like, Surf us up that sun, bitch! I mean, really questions, how much could you restrict yourself? Laval world. I mean, what about, I mean, we all lose control sometimes.

Nobody likes Laval world but I would make one. I mean, but we all, like, get to that level where we snap. Trying to find that green pipe now, bitch. Doo doo doo doo doo.

Laval world. Yeah, that was all Mario sounds. We were expert fully artist. Ready to drop me something like this?

Headlight, I can't sweep. I toss and turn. Campbell's kicks in the door. Bitch and somebody's being burned.

Four walls, just staring at her. I'm paranoid. I'm sleeping with my finger on the trigger. My mother's always dressing, I ain't winning right.

But I ain't going out without a fight. See, every time my eyes close, I start sweating. Blood starts coming out my nose. It's somebody watching me at it.

But I don't know who it is, so I'm watching my back. I can see him when I'm deep in the covers. But I wake up and see the motherfucker. He'll be black at like our own.

I'm a rant. I'm Dan. Welcome to Live Fred. That was pretty good, man.

That was like a little R&B. Yeah, man. Taking a note from my ghetto boys. Yeah.

They're my friends. Not really, I don't know. I don't know anyone. Yeah, I don't know anybody either, man.

Who's the most famous person you've either met or know or are related to? You can't say met because I've shook hands with comedians and been in meet and greets with rock bands. Well, yeah, that's not me. I met Bert Kreischer.

That's pretty solemn. Yeah, shook my hand. He wanted to talk to me. And I was like, yeah, it's like two and more.

And I got to drive the rest of the way to Suck In The Line from Virginia tonight. Dang him. You drove to Virginia to see Bert? No.

I flew to Pennsylvania and looked between Pennsylvania and Charleston. Who, what comedians and where and when? Right. He was in Virginia that night at 10 PM.

So I hauled ass and made it in time. And he stopped and watched a show, had a couple drinks, and then got him a car and fell asleep, and then woke up four hours later and drove the rest with him. Wow. So you kind of like we're living like a comedian there for a second.

Yeah, man. I'm a roadie. Stopped in, got up, left. Speaking of, you ever read any of that, I've seen a book at you?

No, I haven't. Man, neither you or a cow would have. Did he get it about us? Yeah.

Shit. I'm going to. I'm going to. No, I will.

I honestly forgot. I'm done with it. The other day, I remembered. And then I forgot again.

And then you just reminded me again. So I will get to it. Seriously, have you ever read any Hunter Thompson? No, Hunter Thompson, no, I have not.

But you're familiar with? Yeah, yeah, I know who he is and what he did. Yeah, that's fine. Everyone's seen fear and loathing Las Vegas.

But I've seen documentaries on him and other stuff. Actually, the Criterion collection of fear and loathing has some awesome Hunter Thompson, like documentary style footage. Anyway, it's not a big surprise that he's friends with Johnny Depp because that book details that he's basically like the comedian version of Hunter Thompson. Yeah, that totally makes sense.

He's out of fucking control. Yeah. But in a good way. Yeah, of course.

And not like, hey, man, he's out of control. You better go handle him. He's like, he's out of control. This is going to be entertaining.

Yeah, absolutely. But not in a bad way. Not like a train wreck, like a plane landing in a river. Like, you know, everyone's going to be all right, but it's going to be a scary landing.

And it's a float plane and Indiana Jones is there and there are crackabouts. Yeah, it's going to be entertaining. Like it's a plane crash, but is it a really crash? It's more of a plane venture.

It's more of an adventure than a crash. Yeah, exactly. How you been, man? It's not too bad.

Busy with work this week. It's weird. I go in and out. Like, sometimes I'm like, like, staring.

Oh, shit. Like, looking around me like a... Is it my birthday? Like, why is this easy?

And then other times I'm like, fuck, they expect me to do way more than a capable of... Before we go any further, man. Yeah. I'm going to have to make you.

I know you want to tell the story of what happened to you two fucking days ago. Oh, yeah. Don't look at me like you don't know what I'm talking about. I wasn't.

I'm pretty sure somebody was filming Final Destination in Charleston because I was running back from ... Dan apparently is going to live forever because he's unkillable. It's basically the storyline. You better at the early stages of superpowers.

Yeah. I kind of smell like a whiff of ozone here and there. Like, what is that? It smells like electronic spurning.

Oh, yeah. I hate that. Don't you hate when you walk in places where something's not right here. And they're like, what are you talking about?

You're like, I know what electronics burning smells like and something's burning. I'm pretty sure most of my adult life is just trying to find where that smell's coming from. Yeah, right. Damn it was.

What's about a catch on fire? Is that me? Is that... No, I can't do me.

Must be the fridge. Must be the fridge. Right? Everybody's looking for that shit.

Anyway, I'm trying to get back to the office one day a couple days ago and like someone cracks a bull whip. Cchow! 20 feet, 30 feet away from me. High tension, high voltage wire, snaps.

Power line. Power line. Overhead. And it looked like it was edited by a professional after effects artist because there were like three in four foot arcs.

Just from the initial snap, it lays down. I stop because I'm not moving until I see what's happening because high voltage kills people. Yeah. Well, you know my dad works for SCNG and he tells me stories about how like...

Oh, I didn't know that. Guys, well he worked for the gas side but he knew guys like on the electric side who would be working. The wire would hit them like... Because they were long rubber gloves like up to their shoulders.

Well, the wire would hit underneath and blow their arm off and kill them. Dude. Yeah. So that's strong.

Maybe you could ask him, what's that thing that they do where they've got like the hooks? Like the super high tension. This wasn't... What I experienced a couple days ago wasn't one of these.

But you know like the super high tension that are like way up in the air and those linemen have to like... They're grounding them. Yeah. They're grounding that wire to what they're on so they're like insulated from a complete ground.

But if there's something like that they do to themselves to like make them not necessarily part of the circuit. But they're electrified. Yeah, they're electrified. Yeah, basically.

They're like they're standing up and they just feel really weird. Yeah. They basically if they touch anything else they would die but they're not going to die because... Yeah, like they're part of the same sort of thing.

Yeah. Yeah, I don't know how it works but it's... You know what I'm talking about that? Yeah, I know what you're talking about.

Ask him next time he talked to him. Well, he worked for the gas side. I don't think he really knows much about electrical stuff. Ask him.

I'm driving. I'm driving. I'm driving. I stop.

One idiot drives over them, two idiots drive over them, and the wire lays down next to me. I mean in front, on the side and behind. Sparks, there's sparks everywhere. Six foot.

Maybe 250 pound dude from the utility company gets out of his truck and he's yelling at the whole crowd. And it's crowded. This is a Street in Charleston. I mean, it's a very busy street at this time of day.

It's called Ashley Foss survey, it's so busy people call it Ashley frustrate because it's a nightmare to get... Morning and evening. Actually anytime in the day it's really being there. It's really in the ass.

It's awful. But morning, evening, and you're there at the evening, like what, four o'clock-ish? Yeah, like, yeah, three or four. Like when people are getting off work and just trying to start to pick up.

Yeah, really busy. And I'm not going anywhere because in front, on the side, in back to my right is one car. Obviously, bunches car, bunches car's behind me. You got behind me, starts laying on his horn.

And I'm just like, I do one of these. You know, I'm like, throw the hands up like, fuck you, I don't cover anything. You can't do anything? No, yeah.

And I'm like, whatever. I'm just gonna sit here and figure out what's going on. Got behind me, decides to drive around. So he has to one drive over those high voltage lines.

Fuck an idiot, man. And you know, big 250 pound dude is screaming at everyone. The wires are live, the wires are live. Don't drive over them.

And I'm like, yeah, no shit. So I'm sitting still, guy next to me goes across. Right when he passes the wires directly in front of me, Kapow, like a fucking movie set. The transformer explodes and it's like, someone dumped kerosene across the rest of the wires up above us because there was just a flame.

There was just like, whoop, like any of Jones prop, like flame across the wires. Like it's supposed to do this on a Disney ride. Yeah, exactly. Like this is where the part where this goes on fire.

Like you were in Universal Studios and just didn't know it. 100%. I'm just watching all this go on. Dude then stops as the flaming wire has broken and hits the top of his car.

I'm like, well, he's dead now. Dan accepts the faith of another fellow human being. Yeah, I'm like, well, you're a dumbass. And you're dead now.

No, he's fine. This drives on with these scorch marks on top of his car. So I call him a boss and I'm like, eh, power line is down. He's like, yeah, no shit.

All the power is down too. I'm like, great. Well, I don't know what's happening. This is all within 100 yards of your company too.

Yeah, maybe like black. And the guy to my right scoots into a parking lot and finds a way out on my fucking suite. There's nothing over there. I'm going there too.

Just as I start to follow that car back to my middle commerce, I hear what sounds like gunshots and these same dumbass utility workers running further down the street. I hear pop pop pop pop. And then just like a puff of smoke. We've been walking down the street.

I'm like, I gotta get out of here. Cause one of these morons is going to kill me, man. It's basically final destination for Dan's eyes. Some of us trying to kill you and you escaped.

It felt like that. Like if there was an invisible fucking Godzilla knocking over telephone poles, that's what it would have looked like. I know it sounds like an exaggeration, but a line of fire. Fire works on the transformer and like sparks.

See, I think a lot of people don't understand like how extremely dangerous power lines are. I've seen a bird. No, was it a bird? No, it was a squirrel.

Run across the power line. I don't know what he hit, but mid run. Poom puff of smoke fell dead. Oh yeah.

I was like, holy shit. I mean, I was like 13 when I saw it. I was like, what just happened to the, he was just running on the power line. Super common.

But yeah, it's like 10,000 volts, isn't it? I don't know. It's a ridiculous number. It's not the voltage that kills you as the amperage.

It only takes 0.5 milliamps, I think, to kill a person. OK, think about this. Or 0.05 milliamps. It's something really tiny.

It doesn't take a lot. Amperage, it's almost nothing. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's like, but think about this.

So wall socket, 110. Wash your dryer, what? 220, 440 maybe? No, maybe a large appliance in like an industrial environment.

Yeah, yeah. Large AC units on top of it. Large AC units on top of it. Yeah, that's not fun.

What's on those lines? Way more powerful. Like 10,000 volts. Yeah.

Not 440 volts. 10,000. Instant painful death. Like I think an electric eel is like up there like around 8 or 10,000.

But it's a lower amperage again. It's really the amperage. The voltage, I mean, the voltage is what, I guess, the pain that you feel is? I don't know.

I don't understand how it works. I know the amperage is what kills you. That's what they say. Well, that's how it, what's the Tesla thing?

With the long tube with the ball on the top? Tesla coil? Tesla coil. It's extremely high voltage, but low amperage.

Right, exactly. So there's a lot of sparks, but you can touch it and just hit the tangle. Yeah. Well, and that's what stack electricity.

It's high voltage, low amperage. But I mean, a fucking power pole that's grounding is fucking, I mean, is a shit ton of power. I mean, just for example, 110 is what? Like three to five amps, usually?

Oh, the breakers are usually 20 amps. I mean, I don't know. I'm not an electrician. I mean, you know, breakers are like 15 to 20.

Yeah. So that's what, when it hits that 15 or 20 is when it closes and goes, hey, that's too much power. That's too much power. Yeah, that shit was nuts, man.

Yeah. It literally really, really strange. It literally takes a million to kill you. I'm glad you remembered that because we're like, anything happening this week?

I'm like, not taking the bait. Yeah. A lot of shit happened. I guess.

I've been waiting for you to tell the story. You told me earlier this week, and I was like, dude, you're definitely telling that again, because that is the most amazing story I've ever heard of. So this week, we're talking about killing it. Oh, that's not the right word.

Not kill it, Denise's. Kill it, Denise's. I like Denise's. Listen, guys, I've had a bad week.

I'm drinking. Yeah, he really got good. Brent actually kind of played a hoovering over to the house, because he's like, no. I know what it's going to be like when I get there.

I might get a little fucked up. I can't get too hammered or other choice. Get real hammered. And take it seriously.

Falsely early. That's kind of what I did last time. Yeah, but oh, especially if you don't have to drive. Yeah.

Oh, man, that's tempting. You've done that? Yeah, usually like, look, I want to slide into home plate at, you know, like, 830. So that I know I'm going to get up early.

Yeah, but I hate when you like tank it real early. You ever do that? Yeah, I do. But I hate waking up with a hangover.

It's a dice roll for me at this point. I don't know. I mean, sometimes it is, sometimes it don't. If I stick to vodka, clear liquors, I'm good.

It's a sugar, dude. But it's a rum. And I like the rum. Why the rum?

The rum in red wine, especially red wine. Yeah, it's real sugar, you think. But they get me the most fucked up, but they also give me the worst hangovers. It's going to watch your mixtures.

Well, even just drinking straight rum. Really? Yeah. This is just dark liquor.

Dark liquor, some reason. Do it to me. All right, we're too alcoholics talking. All right, so this is our first meeting.

So we're going to be talking about talkinesis. What do you think? What do you speak about? Can we take a break open?

We're taking a little brisache. Brisache. All right, Brent, that's the word you want to use? Yeah, you fancy.

So you wanted to talk talkinesis. Is it talkinesis? It's basically like two hands of the same thing, though. But I'm thinking we just talk about mind powers.

Mind powers. Exactly. Move into shape with your mind. Read other people's minds.

Make them other people do shit that you want them to do. Make shit happen. Make shit happen. OK, so what I think, talpathy is reading minds?

Yes. Yeah, you're right. I was going to say there's one that I didn't even know about. I wouldn't say Professor X, but that's more a mix between the two because he can stop time, which is stopping everyone.

So that'll be later on. That's more mind control. But talpathy is reading minds and implanting thoughts in other people's minds. Suggestion.

Or even speaking out loud in other people's minds. Right. Convincing them that you're god. Like right now, you hear us in your mind.

We're telepatheticic. Telepathetic. Telepathetic. That's what we are.

One that's related, but I didn't know until reading up on this shit. Psychokinesis is supposedly the ability to control someone's mind or actions. But comic book wise, you'd call that talpathy. Yes, I put that in the same boat as well.

Yeah, so that's basically making someone jump off a building. Right. Yeah. Remote possession.

OK, the other ones. Telekinesis. Telekinesis. Moving stuff with your mind.

My father, coolest one in my opinion. Absolutely. Like being able to lift stuff, remove stuff, manipulate physical items with thought. Yeah.

I feel like we can go into that a little further. But maybe once we get the media. But pyrokinesis. Catch your channel, fire with your mind.

That sounds pretty dope. Yeah, that's you really don't see that a lot in movies. I mean, not too much. Not too much.

There's a couple. But I mean, what other forms are there that we wouldn't necessarily think of right off the bat? I would think if there's pyrokinesis, there has to be all the other elemental versions of it. But you've never heard of any of them.

Like isokinesis? Is that in theory? Lightningkinesis? Maybe.

Is that what Dorth, or Emperor Palpatine uses? I'm like watching you literally stumble over your thoughts. Yeah. I'm like I'm running through a force of airfoot.

What do you think about? Like you're running and you're trying to turn around and talk to me. Dan, catch up. I'm up here.

I'm looking front of you, Brett. I'm looking front. Yeah. So all right.

Let's say one day you wake up. And like we all do from time to time, you try to move something with your mind. I think we all do that from time to time, right? I mean, yeah, I do it every Wednesday at 3 o'clock.

I don't have a set time. But yeah. I mean, seriously, though, every once in a while, you do kind of, you don't feel like getting up and you just think you're like, I mean, just come on. Give me powers.

Just do it. Just give it to me. I think I brought that up in another episode when I was talking about being in school. And I know I'm not a Jedi.

Yeah, because you've just. You stare at shit forever. Hours on end. And you're not moving anything.

Let's say one day you wake up and it works. You're able to move objects with your mind. Oh, shit. You're able to read people's minds.

You're able to speak into people's minds. Yeah, what about it? What would you do with that power? Read minds and speak into other people's minds.

I mean, should be two separate things. I think it should be. No, I mean, I feel like it's the same. And move objects?

No, I feel like that's different. Well, that's what I'm saying. The moving objects is separate from the reading and implanting. I mean, it could be, but it could all be the same if you're like some kind of Superman of brain.

Well, let's separate it. Left brain, right brain, left brain. That's a good way to think of it. But yeah.

So you wake up and you have the ability to read people. You wake up and you hear your wife talk and you're like, what is she talking about? She's your grandma's. And you find out you're hearing your thoughts.

You know it's weird. Not what's wrong. What's weird? That happened?

I don't say that. I better read your mind. I would hear the same voice that you read, she didn't. I was going to bring that up because when you here's the exception.

If I have seen a movie and then I read a book about the movie, I read it in the voice of the actor. But when you yourself consciousness, is that the word? That's not the word. You're your brain speaker.

Man, the mayor of Brainville. What is it? I mean, do people listening to this just feel like they're behind that glass wall and a kindergarten sometimes? More of a mental institute.

I think more of a mental institute. Yeah, the people of Korean. Yeah, the people of Korean. Do you talk to yourself in the same voice that you speak?

No, right? I don't think so. I don't know. I have to have Terry.

She talks to herself a lot. I talk to myself a lot. I said a lot to emphasis. Emphasized.

I don't talk to myself that much. Really? Really? Like you never just drive in and use like, you never have conversations in your head with yourself?

No, he's still a lot. And then I think I read somewhere that that's assigned mental illness. And I'm like, yeah. Why would I have a conversation with myself?

Because I already know what I'm thinking. But do you? Yeah, I do. I don't think everyone knows what their self-conscious is thinking though.

OK, we're bearing off. Yes. OK, anyways. No, I was thinking about this today.

Like, if you narrow it down a little bit further, just the ability to hear someone's thoughts. You wouldn't hear it in their voice? What would you do with that? Oh, what would I do with that?

I think I would not only feel really good about myself if somebody actually liked me. I would feel like a creep. Yeah, I would feel like a voyeur. Kind of like you drilled a hole in the bathroom door and then like watched him take a shower.

I would feel like a total creep. Hey, what's up? What's going on in there? Like, I would feel like I'm not supposed to hear this stuff.

Like, I'm not supposed to know what they're thinking right now. Like, you know you're going to hear someone talk shit about you. And you can't say anything about it. Because they didn't say anything out loud about it.

You know, someone's going to be like, man, fucking Dan's a fucking dick. And you're going to be like, OK, so he thinks I'm a dick. Fuck him. And then you're going to be like, well, I mean, he's a cool guy.

You didn't really think I'm a dick. I mean, you know, I can't say anything about it. It's almost like a prison, man. Maybe I'm just that much more dumb than most people.

But the fact that I don't talk to myself all that much, I don't really think out loud all that often. Like, I think about shit. I don't like have a conversation in my mind unless I'm like, I'm eating something. Totally have conversation like, like me to me, like, multiple personality conversations in my mind.

I didn't sound right. I shouldn't say multiple personalities. Like, you ever have like, I'm sure this is happening. But I've had them.

Yeah, I'm not saying that's never happened. But you've had this situation. I'm sure because you're married, where your wife says something and you're like, all right, well, I'll talk to you later. You're driving home.

You're like, well, she's going to say this. I'm going to say this. And then I'm going to say this. Oh, where I imagine winning arguments?

Yeah, I do that all the time. Yeah, exactly. So you basically have a fight with a imaginary person. But technically, you're having a fight with yourself, right?

And then you get home. And it's not even a thing. It's not even a thing. Not even a thing.

Like she's not even mad. Yeah, you're like, when you talk about it, you're all ready for it. I was just like, I just asked you if you picked up burritos. You said, no, I was like, OK.

But I was going to say, do you pick up burritos? And she'd be like, no, why not do that? I don't know. Maybe I thought you would do something for a change.

Because I fucking pulled you pick up burritos. Yeah. Yeah. So do you think if you were carrying someone else's thoughts, you would hear both those voices?

I feel like celebrity would be, I would be able to, more like, would you be able to do this? Like, it would project an image in my mind because I'm a visual thinker. Yeah. Like, I think in basically daydreams, because I'm a silly bitch.

I think about things as I imagine them. It probably makes it dangerous for me to drive around. Oh, you ever been driving, you go, I don't know what I've been doing for that. That's for me.

Yeah, autopilot. Yeah, it's scary. It's like, I know I took several turns about there. Don't remember any of the turns.

Fucking a state in my lane, though. So that's good. But since I don't self-speak all that often, I imagine things. Just me telepathy would be like, I can see what you're imagining.

OK. Same one hand the other. Vision versus sound. But I guess the question is, what would we do with that?

I would feel like dirty for having that power. And would you be able to cut it off or would it just be like, if you're in a crowded room, you're hearing everything all at once. Kind of like schizophrenics. Well, or like, you can hear everyone's opinion.

You can hear everyone's thoughts. And see everyone's a jumbled mess that you can't control. Or can you just cut it off and be like, OK, I want to read that person's mind. Or that person's mind.

It's like a problem schizophrenics. It's like one of the symptoms. It's like too much going on at once. Phantom voice syndrome or something like that.

And it's not just like, oh, I hear voices. Like they're afraid. Are maybe it's broadcast voice syndrome or something like that. They're afraid that their thoughts are being picked up by other people.

Like that's one of the paranoia is that they have. Little sign up because I like to do this. You're heard of exploding head syndrome? No, I've had that before.

No, it's a real thing. What are you talking about? You're either laying down, you're trying to go to sleep. And all of a sudden you hear basically what sounds like a shot going off, like right next to your head.

And you like bolt awake. Like what the fuck was that? I've had that. Yeah.

Oh, that sucks. Yeah, it's crazy. It's like, no, there was an explosion. I definitely heard it.

And it's like, and you know, even your head's still ringing. Like there's definitely a noise, but there wasn't. It's crazy. I feel like it was just like a mini-anyorism.

It's actually called exploding head syndrome. Sorry, sorry to side note, but I mean, I would feel dirty, but at the same time, I would definitely use it in my advantage. I mean, to know what your boss is thinking about you, like what you could definitely what about you? What about you guys, bro?

Guide your life. I mean, I'm married. I'm married a hard time. You're very good.

I mean, what? Yeah, see, what if you're walking past some super hot, like insanely hot, like cartoon hot, like it's not possible, like it's impossible. You're that hot. See, she's like, I wish I'd do it with taking off.

Do this. This is where darkness and lightness mean you separate because my head goes the other direction, whoever sent her home and hear your wife thinking about another dude. Right? I mean, you can't say anything.

You don't have any proof. You know, it's not fair because it's not like I've never thought about chicks. No, but what if she's like, man, last night was really fun with so much. Oh, OK, that's different.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, you can't you don't have any proof. You're like, what the fuck? I'd be testing our friendship pretty quickly.

Yeah, you got to show it up. Look at how we're killing one, Dan. I didn't say kill. Silent Winx.

I said, Barry. I just said, Barry. No, honestly, that's the case in a corpse versus murder. Yeah, I could go with that.

Anyway, back to the left. See, that's where me and you differ, man. You always go to the brighter side. Like, hey, man, would you pick up chicks?

I'm like, hey, man, what if your chick was like banging six dudes that you didn't know about? Yeah, that's true. I mean, both sides like I don't I don't think I would. I think I'd be like, yeah, she thinks I'm hot and sweet.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I would definitely use it. My band should be like, Oh, chicks like when I do this. It would be interesting.

Like I like during sex would be super interesting. Like you would be like, Oh, she wants me to go this way some more. Oh, she wants me to do this. Oh, she wants me to do this.

And you'd be like fucking King Dong over there. King Dong. I guess you're dick out of my brain. Get your dick out of my brain.

Oh, man. What else do you think of it as to what to be though? Clear points. Oh, being able to like predict.

Show me clear points is the wrong wrong idea. Okay. So like, well, you would be able to predict short distance in the future by people's thoughts around you. You would know which way people are turning.

You would know which way people are going what they're doing. It would be a clear point type situation. So when people try to test people for ESP. I think the most common thing you see is the flash card thing.

Yeah, exactly. All right. All right. Just tell me what's on this card.

Boom. Put it down. Put it down. And like it.

I was just going to say eight o'clock. Yeah. Go spusters. Yeah.

Exactly. But I think I would use that power to I think I would rob a bank because you would know who's thinking about pushing a button. And that's if you could separate if you could look at someone and you go, okay, well, I know that's them thinking and not just like group mumble. You could really take some shit down like pretty quick.

Like, oh, I know he's going to throw a punch and dodge it. You would know if somebody was going to like. It's a sign alarm. It's a sign alarm.

Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. You would know what people are thinking.

You would know exactly who to stop when to stop them because people think before they act. Ah, not necessarily though. Yeah. And how fast do you think?

I don't think very fast. And then you have to process what they're thinking before you think about thinking. And then animal instinct like a lot of people. Some people can't.

Yeah. What I'm saying like. You think before you think and I'm thinking before you think. If I hear you're thinking I have to think about what you're thinking before I plan a reaction.

So it is a delay in my action compared to what you're going to do. But what about my reaction to your action? Well, that's further than one, man. That's what I'm saying.

It's it's it's it's not a point in my point. I wouldn't be able to. Oh, if you're smart enough, you know, powerful enough left. Maybe you're super fast on the brain.

That's true. And then also you think about animal instinct. Some people act without thinking. And if you do that, you can't predict that.

It's true. It's muscle muscle. Yeah, reflex muscle memory. Yeah, reflex instinct.

Yeah. Can't find that shit. You have no power for that. You just jump.

I didn't think it was going to jump because he didn't think he was going to jump but he jumped. Interesting. It's funny. Like I'm glad I read about psychokinesis because you think like, Oh, well.

I have to lip these. I was just like, cause a tiny rainstorm in each of one of their brains and they would like be not paying attention while I robbed the vault. Well, see, I think that's where telekinesis would be better because you could just hold people in place. Yeah, that's going to fuck your thoughts.
