WEBVTT 00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.840 Hello, and welcome back to Salt Cravings 2019 edition. 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.640 Whoa, hey, nice. 00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:34.460 This is a podcast. 00:00:36.780 --> 00:00:39.480 I don't know what you're expecting me to say. 00:00:40.100 --> 00:00:41.700 I forgot there was more to the intro. 00:00:41.720 --> 00:00:43.680 This is a podcast where we solve our cravings. 00:00:43.700 --> 00:00:44.560 My name is Clair. 00:00:44.720 --> 00:00:45.900 My name's Brianna. 00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:47.920 Wow, now it's done. 00:00:47.940 --> 00:00:52.700 You know, I think we're just having trouble getting, we had two themed episodes in a row. 00:00:53.060 --> 00:01:01.020 And so like getting back into the swing of doing our podcast as normal, I think is throwing me for a loop at least. 00:01:01.060 --> 00:01:01.720 I don't know about you. 00:01:01.740 --> 00:01:03.020 How are you doing, Clair? 00:01:03.340 --> 00:01:05.620 I'm not too bad, I'm back in class. 00:01:05.980 --> 00:01:10.880 I have some homework that I get to do and now I get to record this podcast. 00:01:10.980 --> 00:01:14.860 Literally napping in the middle of the day was a possibility. 00:01:15.020 --> 00:01:15.720 That's nice. 00:01:16.020 --> 00:01:18.980 I like me some breaks and some naps in the middle of the day. 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.680 I guess it's a good thing that you don't get that anymore. 00:01:21.820 --> 00:01:23.720 Is that, is this a positive or a negative? 00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:25.240 It's a fact. 00:01:25.460 --> 00:01:27.260 Okay, it's a neutral change. 00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:29.140 Okay, cool. 00:01:29.160 --> 00:01:29.360 Cool. 00:01:29.380 --> 00:01:29.500 Cool. 00:01:29.520 --> 00:01:29.640 Cool. 00:01:29.660 --> 00:01:29.820 Cool. 00:01:30.140 --> 00:01:31.780 I'm not in classes yet. 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:32.940 I will be next week. 00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:34.640 And tomorrow, apparently. 00:01:34.940 --> 00:01:37.120 Technically, well, technically. 00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:38.760 Yes. 00:01:38.780 --> 00:01:39.400 Technically. 00:01:39.580 --> 00:01:40.820 Yes. 00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:42.420 Technically. 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:48.340 My school starts classes tomorrow, but I don't have that many classes up and about. 00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:51.040 So I don't start till next week. 00:01:51.380 --> 00:01:57.020 No one should be forced to start classes super duper early into January. 00:01:57.120 --> 00:01:59.340 Give us like a little bit of a buffer. 00:01:59.460 --> 00:01:59.900 You know? 00:02:00.020 --> 00:02:00.940 That's what I'm saying. 00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:02.100 I like what you're saying. 00:02:02.220 --> 00:02:04.780 You want to stay a Craven? 00:02:06.260 --> 00:02:07.860 Oh boy, I do. 00:02:08.100 --> 00:02:09.900 You know what's really good? 00:02:10.180 --> 00:02:11.100 Probably. 00:02:11.340 --> 00:02:12.020 Pirates. 00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:17.160 So the thing is, pirates are the best. 00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:23.860 And this is a thing that I don't think I fully appreciated until I realized how fucking great pirates are. 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:25.360 The best at what? 00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.180 It's not necessarily at... 00:02:27.480 --> 00:02:41.360 Just to clarify, are we talking about the Yar Yar Pirates or the I'm sitting in the basement with a computer and I'm downloading this movie of 2001 A Space Odyssey but from. 00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:48.400 The internet illegally? 00:02:48.420 --> 00:02:57.240 I mean distinctly the Yar Har Har type of pirates because really the thing that I'm craving is pirate-focused media. 00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:03.060 This is the thing is that there's just not enough good pro-pirate material out there. 00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:07.540 You want pirate material that is better than the pirates of the Caribbean? 00:03:07.940 --> 00:03:14.300 Well, I certainly do because Johnny Depp is in there and therefore the entire franchise is dead. 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:21.060 So I want something that doesn't have domestic abusers in it that's about pirates. 00:03:21.260 --> 00:03:33.940 And also stuff that is as gay as pirates deserve to be, is as directly anti-capitalist, Robinhood style pirate tales as pirates deserve to be. 00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:39.460 Because really, that's the core of pirates that I don't think has been fully explored. 00:03:39.740 --> 00:03:44.640 How they robbed from empires that were, well, empires and therefore awful. 00:03:44.740 --> 00:03:47.140 Was Veggie Tales about pirates? 00:03:47.440 --> 00:03:50.380 You know, I never watched Veggie Tales. 00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:51.080 Neither did I. 00:03:51.100 --> 00:03:53.720 But I think that there was some pirates. 00:03:53.740 --> 00:03:55.220 Yeah, I think there were pirates in there. 00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:00.880 I think the vegetables were occasionally pirates for reasons that I don't understand but do appreciate. 00:04:00.940 --> 00:04:02.300 I kind of like that though. 00:04:02.580 --> 00:04:04.660 Can we have fruit pirates? 00:04:05.200 --> 00:04:06.880 Okay, now I'm feeling this. 00:04:06.900 --> 00:04:08.400 I'm feeling the fruit pirates. 00:04:08.460 --> 00:04:10.540 Okay, so we got all these fruit pirates. 00:04:10.820 --> 00:04:12.200 Is the whole world fruit? 00:04:12.540 --> 00:04:15.920 Are the fruit pirates going up against a different type of food? 00:04:15.940 --> 00:04:17.200 Maybe the vegetables? 00:04:17.340 --> 00:04:20.540 What if it's just we have fruit pirates and then there's also people? 00:04:22.700 --> 00:04:25.380 Like, why are these pirates fruit? 00:04:25.400 --> 00:04:27.700 How did this fruit become pirates? 00:04:27.880 --> 00:04:30.140 What is this pineapple's origin story? 00:04:30.620 --> 00:04:33.220 I got bit by a radioactive pineapple. 00:04:34.220 --> 00:04:38.540 You got bit by a radioactive pineapple and also became a pirate. 00:04:39.760 --> 00:04:41.400 Okay, here's the really important question. 00:04:41.400 --> 00:04:44.420 What size are the fruit compared to humans? 00:04:44.960 --> 00:04:50.220 Because on the one hand, I don't think the tiny, tiny fruit could be too effective against. 00:05:00.840 --> 00:05:08.140 Okay, so I like this very small boat, very fruity pirates, and they did get cursed like this, right? 00:05:08.520 --> 00:05:11.300 And their tail is to break the curse. 00:05:11.760 --> 00:05:12.460 Yes, it is. 00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.740 And also to steal like as much as possible. 00:05:15.760 --> 00:05:18.360 They're gonna steal your punch bowl. 00:05:18.760 --> 00:05:19.720 Oh, they absolutely are. 00:05:19.740 --> 00:05:22.060 Because that's like messed up, right? 00:05:22.080 --> 00:05:26.640 Like, can you imagine how many how much fruits would dislike the concept of punch? 00:05:26.940 --> 00:05:28.000 It's called punch. 00:05:28.400 --> 00:05:32.060 It implies that you punched fruit until it was juice. 00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:41.200 Also I'm just thinking about like if you get turned into a lemon and you are a pirate, you're sort of the first to go if you all get marooned on an island or anything. 00:05:41.460 --> 00:05:42.860 Just by pirate logic. 00:05:43.100 --> 00:05:43.840 What do you mean? 00:05:43.980 --> 00:05:45.700 Well, you got to protect from scurvy. 00:05:48.460 --> 00:05:49.460 Hey, wait, wait. 00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:54.980 What you're saying here to me, what you're saying here to me right now is that fruit can get scurvy. 00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:57.100 Well, if you don't got enough vitamin C. 00:05:57.560 --> 00:05:58.820 They are vitamin C! 00:05:59.300 --> 00:06:00.180 Not if you're not a. 00:06:16.860 --> 00:06:24.280 Get marooned on a deserted tropical island, I'm going to make it so that they don't have a reason to and therefore I'm going to mostly deal with a... 00:06:24.300 --> 00:06:25.380 That's a great idea. 00:06:25.400 --> 00:06:27.260 The lemon is evil. 00:06:28.580 --> 00:06:29.400 Evil pirate. 00:06:29.420 --> 00:06:35.080 I think the lemon becomes a capitalist and the lemon sort of deals with the capitalist. 00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:39.920 It's the shift from pirate to privateer. 00:06:40.300 --> 00:06:42.940 And that shift of course is a downfall. 00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:45.880 The lemon does become a capitalist. 00:06:46.060 --> 00:06:48.300 And this is, I guess, the central conflict. 00:06:48.540 --> 00:06:57.520 Is it that very superhero type of thing of like once upon a time we were friends and then the lemon turned against us? 00:06:57.640 --> 00:06:59.080 Yeah, no, definitely. 00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:10.120 And also every time the capitalists are foiled, they do all sort of make a face and the lemon turns to them and says, wow, you all look sour. 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:12.620 And that's the closing of every episode. 00:07:12.640 --> 00:07:13.380 I don't know if it... 00:07:13.900 --> 00:07:14.740 Well, okay. 00:07:16.620 --> 00:07:16.960 Okay. 00:07:17.080 --> 00:07:17.780 Well, no, actually. 00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:18.140 Okay. 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:19.740 I was, I was unsure. 00:07:19.900 --> 00:07:27.180 But now I've turned over to this because if there's an episode where the lemon dies, can you imagine what the ending of that episode is going to just be like? 00:07:28.300 --> 00:07:29.720 No, there's nothing. 00:07:29.740 --> 00:07:34.100 It's just like all of them making this face and then it zooms in on an empty space. 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:34.940 Oh. 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:43.220 And how can we have like a lemon outline and a big arrow pointing at the empty space just to emphasize the dramatic effect? 00:07:43.260 --> 00:07:46.040 Like, you're supposed to feel sad. 00:07:46.060 --> 00:07:51.520 You really are a fan of subtlety, aren't you? 00:07:51.540 --> 00:07:52.680 I think they'll get it. 00:07:52.700 --> 00:07:54.820 We can put text on the screen too. 00:07:55.040 --> 00:08:01.540 We can actually have like emotion cues for people who don't always get the like emotions of the people. 00:08:01.940 --> 00:08:06.320 It is just like feel sadness in bold at the top of the screen. 00:08:06.340 --> 00:08:14.900 I think the other way to make it so that people can get that is this thing called acting and writing, musical accompaniment. 00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:18.000 Because that's essentially what musical accompaniment is right now. 00:08:18.180 --> 00:08:19.940 You're supposed to feel sad. 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.760 But we also have, you know, captions for people who can't hear the actors. 00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:30.600 What about we have emotion captions for people who can't read the actor's emotions? 00:08:30.900 --> 00:08:32.420 What if there's a note? 00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:33.180 So this is really... 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:38.740 We just sort of put the word sad on like the actor's forehead if they're trying to convey sadness. 00:08:38.760 --> 00:08:46.780 Well, actually, now that's great, because I think you just have on top of, you know, lemon evil. 00:08:46.900 --> 00:08:49.140 Can you tell me what the evil looks like? 00:08:49.180 --> 00:08:51.400 What is the evil face that like... 00:08:51.420 --> 00:08:53.880 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:08:53.880 --> 00:08:56.380 Wait, wait, we said they all have tiny voices. 00:09:00.340 --> 00:09:01.500 I am feeling this. 00:09:01.800 --> 00:09:10.720 Mostly the thing that I also love, I think is important to mention that I love about pirates and piracy is pirate music, not pirated music, right? 00:09:10.740 --> 00:09:15.020 This is, I mean, music that is clarified. 00:09:15.040 --> 00:09:16.660 Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. 00:09:16.680 --> 00:09:18.120 Thank you, Clair, for clarifying. 00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:19.840 Like this, this... 00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:22.540 It's the one time you get to use that pun on the podcast. 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:24.920 Damn, I can't believe I used it so soon. 00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:29.460 But just that sort of, yarr, yarr, I'm a pirate type of music is very good. 00:09:29.820 --> 00:09:35.120 I still maintain that one of the best songs on the Smash Bros. 00:09:35.140 --> 00:09:36.880 Ultimate soundtrack is the King K. 00:09:36.900 --> 00:09:41.900 Rool music, Gang-Plank Galleon, which is like prime pirate stuff. 00:09:41.920 --> 00:09:43.680 Do you want me to play a little bit right here? 00:09:43.700 --> 00:09:46.780 I would love for you to play a little bit of Gang-Plank Galleon right here. 00:09:46.800 --> 00:09:50.700 Alright, so this is the Gang-Plank Galleon from the new Smash Bros. 00:10:12.342 --> 00:10:14.542 And see, that is what it's about. 00:10:14.562 --> 00:10:16.942 Yeah, it gets you pumped up to smash. 00:10:18.042 --> 00:10:21.862 Okay, yes, to smash, but also just in general to do some piracy, right? 00:10:21.882 --> 00:10:22.882 Because King K. 00:10:22.902 --> 00:10:26.342 Rool is a classic example of anti-capitalist piracy. 00:10:26.502 --> 00:10:31.462 So you sort of want all the theme music to sound like this, even the sad moments. 00:10:31.482 --> 00:10:34.042 It's like, all right, we're gonna get you through your sadness. 00:10:34.042 --> 00:10:34.982 All right, you're feeling it. 00:10:35.002 --> 00:10:36.862 It's intense, intense sadness. 00:10:37.022 --> 00:10:37.902 Let's feel it. 00:10:38.382 --> 00:10:40.042 Like, sort of. 00:10:40.062 --> 00:10:44.022 I mean, I think the sad moments could also just be the same instruments, but it's sad now. 00:10:44.262 --> 00:10:50.962 But also maybe it is just the most intense sadness, because that's another important thing, is like, pirates are dramatic as hell. 00:10:50.982 --> 00:10:54.622 And if they're not, they're not correct pirates, because Blackbeard existed. 00:10:54.762 --> 00:10:56.442 Dude lit his beard on fire. 00:10:56.742 --> 00:10:58.542 That's pretty dramatic to me. 00:10:59.102 --> 00:11:04.922 And yeah, so like, so I think everything just has to be to the nines, right? 00:11:04.942 --> 00:11:06.122 And that includes the sadness. 00:11:06.142 --> 00:11:06.762 So you're right. 00:11:06.862 --> 00:11:11.102 So I think along with this intense music, sort of the BPM, it's up there. 00:11:11.122 --> 00:11:14.302 I think the fruit also goes fast. 00:11:14.322 --> 00:11:17.802 And that is also why they are sped up in their voices. 00:11:18.122 --> 00:11:22.382 They sort of have the high voice, but they also do the fast move. 00:11:22.722 --> 00:11:24.202 Okay, so they're just, okay. 00:11:24.382 --> 00:11:25.642 That's their superpower. 00:11:25.882 --> 00:11:27.022 Their speedy fruit. 00:11:27.462 --> 00:11:33.782 I thought the superpower was that they were fruit that moved and talked and interacted with the world at large. 00:11:33.922 --> 00:11:36.522 That too, but also now they're speedy fruit. 00:11:36.802 --> 00:11:37.562 Okay, that's fair. 00:11:37.582 --> 00:11:41.542 So you do have a pineapple that can tie you up in under five seconds. 00:11:41.642 --> 00:11:42.322 That's fair. 00:11:42.342 --> 00:11:46.542 The super speedy fruit of the shores of fruitopia. 00:11:47.022 --> 00:11:49.882 Great, the super speedy fruit of the shores of utopia. 00:11:49.902 --> 00:11:50.842 Fruitopia. 00:11:50.962 --> 00:11:53.802 Fruitopia, it's not a utopia, it's capitalist. 00:11:54.462 --> 00:11:57.382 And so the fruit are really out here trying to- 00:11:57.402 --> 00:11:59.342 They're trying to make their fruitopia. 00:11:59.402 --> 00:12:02.462 They're trying to level the playing field. 00:12:02.562 --> 00:12:08.602 Sort of like, they're really trying to get some water- 00:12:08.622 --> 00:12:10.202 What's water that doesn't have waves? 00:12:10.642 --> 00:12:11.902 It's like still water. 00:12:11.942 --> 00:12:15.742 They're really just trying to make everything still water. 00:12:15.922 --> 00:12:19.222 Okay, they're going to redistribute the fruits of production. 00:12:21.422 --> 00:12:23.522 The fruits of our labor, one might say. 00:12:25.062 --> 00:12:27.282 Yeah, so I'm craving pirate media. 00:12:27.742 --> 00:12:31.062 Do you have any other suggested pirate media? 00:12:31.502 --> 00:12:33.862 Or would you like to tell me your craving? 00:12:34.042 --> 00:12:36.422 Oh, well, now that's two big different things. 00:12:37.002 --> 00:12:38.322 It is two big different things. 00:12:38.622 --> 00:12:42.202 Okay, how about before I give you my next craving, I'm just going to say this. 00:12:42.442 --> 00:12:49.062 We could do Veggie Tales, but it is about Satanism instead of Christianity. 00:12:49.082 --> 00:12:51.222 And it's sort of a balancing act, isn't it? 00:12:51.362 --> 00:12:56.802 It's kind of like you've heard the one perspective, now here the exact opposite side of this. 00:12:56.822 --> 00:12:58.742 Yeah, again, never seen Veggie Tales. 00:12:58.762 --> 00:13:07.962 I do think it's almost a word for word, except all the songs sort of just replace keywords, and it is about Satanism now. 00:13:08.302 --> 00:13:10.462 Yeah, I think that that does make sense. 00:13:10.982 --> 00:13:13.902 Instead of talking about Jesus, they're just talking about Lucifer, right? 00:13:13.922 --> 00:13:16.962 In fact, it's just sort of the same show, but it's dubbed over. 00:13:17.042 --> 00:13:17.982 It's a redubbing. 00:13:18.262 --> 00:13:20.162 Yeah, you know, that does sound easier. 00:13:20.182 --> 00:13:29.942 It's just like I'm just imagining this thing of like, we are all so thankful to love and be loved by Satan. 00:13:31.742 --> 00:13:34.682 So my next craving, Yeah, give me your next craving. 00:13:34.702 --> 00:13:53.082 since I am back in school and this came up today, one of my cravings is to have all the slides for a class already because it does make learning a little easier because you can just listen. 00:13:53.102 --> 00:13:55.882 You can just listen and have the slides. 00:13:55.922 --> 00:14:07.722 Yeah, so one thing that I sort of switched to doing last semester from what I used to do, which was I'd buy a notebook every year for every one of my classes and then I'd write down my notes. 00:14:07.742 --> 00:14:10.562 This seems pretty standard for most people. 00:14:11.302 --> 00:14:19.282 What I do now, I just take photos of the board and then I upload it to a folder and I'm like, yeah, this is better. 00:14:19.562 --> 00:14:21.222 Now I have everything digitally. 00:14:21.702 --> 00:14:25.422 It's almost like having slides, but less good. 00:14:25.662 --> 00:14:30.122 So I do super crave when there are those nice PowerPoint PDFs. 00:14:30.442 --> 00:14:31.982 And I don't want your PowerPoints. 00:14:32.322 --> 00:14:33.442 I want your PDFs. 00:14:33.442 --> 00:14:36.442 Please, please export your PowerPoints to PDFs. 00:14:39.022 --> 00:14:43.182 I've had classes where they give you the PowerPoints and they're in PowerPoint. 00:14:43.202 --> 00:14:46.602 I am just going to open them and export them to PDF myself. 00:14:46.642 --> 00:14:47.422 Yeah, exactly. 00:14:47.762 --> 00:14:54.202 And also just in general, I will say one of the things about PowerPoints for me is they don't often tell the whole story. 00:14:54.222 --> 00:14:58.762 I've definitely had classes that I've been absent for, but then looked through the PowerPoint later. 00:14:59.042 --> 00:15:04.242 But I think the key to it is that you're still there and you're still listening. 00:15:04.422 --> 00:15:05.422 Yeah. 00:15:05.422 --> 00:15:09.042 It's sort of a summary on the greater course. 00:15:09.062 --> 00:15:24.122 I've also seen in some of my courses, everyone in the comp side apartment sort of has those fancy touchscreen computers where you turn it into a tablet and then they have their pen and then the PowerPoint is open and you can just write notes on the PowerPoint. 00:15:24.142 --> 00:15:26.882 So you can make extra notes on the PowerPoint and that saves it. 00:15:27.302 --> 00:15:28.922 That seems like a really smart thing. 00:15:29.002 --> 00:15:30.042 I don't do that. 00:15:30.062 --> 00:15:31.902 That seems a little far and beyond. 00:15:31.922 --> 00:15:32.882 That's extreme. 00:15:32.902 --> 00:15:40.342 Yeah, that's like they are going to be able to review that PowerPoint and know absolutely everything Galaxy brain level education. 00:15:41.222 --> 00:15:45.002 I wanted to ask you, what's another way to take notes? 00:15:45.722 --> 00:15:47.502 Okay, what's what's sort of? 00:15:47.582 --> 00:15:49.562 Yeah, everyone learns differently. 00:15:49.562 --> 00:15:52.922 I mean, what's another way to do on the actual answer of how I take notes? 00:15:52.942 --> 00:15:54.442 Or do you want me to think of a joke? 00:15:55.762 --> 00:15:56.262 You know what? 00:15:56.282 --> 00:15:57.862 The actual way to take notes is a joke. 00:15:58.242 --> 00:15:59.282 I use Google Docs. 00:15:59.722 --> 00:16:00.462 Okay. 00:16:00.722 --> 00:16:03.722 The thing about Google Docs is that I'm used to it. 00:16:03.742 --> 00:16:05.162 And so I just kept using it. 00:16:05.402 --> 00:16:07.542 It's typed and I like to type notes. 00:16:08.122 --> 00:16:14.662 I know that there's all those studies out there that say, if you don't handwrite things, you're never going to learn anything. 00:16:14.682 --> 00:16:17.962 But like, you know, I think I've disproven that. 00:16:17.982 --> 00:16:18.862 Can confirm. 00:16:18.882 --> 00:16:23.962 I've failed every course I've taken because I'm a computer scientist and we don't write anything. 00:16:23.982 --> 00:16:27.822 In fact, there's never been a computer scientist that passed a course ever. 00:16:28.022 --> 00:16:29.402 And that's why that study exists. 00:16:29.602 --> 00:16:30.482 Yeah, exactly. 00:16:30.522 --> 00:16:33.402 The thing about Google Docs on the one hand, you know, it's good. 00:16:33.422 --> 00:16:34.402 I like typing notes. 00:16:34.422 --> 00:16:35.282 I like having them. 00:16:35.402 --> 00:16:43.122 I like having them accessible wherever I am, whether I have my tablet slash laptop, my laptop that is essentially tablet, or if I have my home... 00:16:43.142 --> 00:16:43.682 Laplet. 00:16:44.162 --> 00:16:45.202 Yeah, my Laplet. 00:16:46.122 --> 00:16:46.842 Tap top. 00:16:47.122 --> 00:16:48.502 Tap top is a different thing. 00:16:49.582 --> 00:16:53.962 Can I predict one of the good things that I think you use Google Docs for? 00:16:54.042 --> 00:16:54.402 Yes. 00:16:55.022 --> 00:16:57.262 A shared document with other people. 00:16:57.482 --> 00:16:58.962 Yes, that's exactly it. 00:17:00.222 --> 00:17:03.862 See, the problem for me is I don't have any friends in my classes. 00:17:04.102 --> 00:17:06.082 I had one class last semester. 00:17:06.102 --> 00:17:07.122 I had one friend in it. 00:17:07.142 --> 00:17:07.762 That was great. 00:17:08.142 --> 00:17:15.722 All the other classes, it was like, all right, I went on co-op and now everyone in my year is like already graduated. 00:17:16.062 --> 00:17:23.042 I mean, I don't have that much of that now, but when I was early into university, I was like, I want to make friends with everyone. 00:17:23.042 --> 00:17:23.542 Yeah. 00:17:23.542 --> 00:17:24.182 Oh, yeah. 00:17:24.202 --> 00:17:26.942 No, definitely the first year energy of you sit down next to someone. 00:17:26.962 --> 00:17:28.022 They're your friend now. 00:17:28.402 --> 00:17:31.042 Fourth year, it's like, please don't look at me, talk to me. 00:17:31.342 --> 00:17:34.202 If I can hear you breathing, I will leave. 00:17:34.762 --> 00:17:46.202 Like to give you the comparison, first year in a department that wasn't even mine, I like accidentally elbowed someone in the knee behind me and we started talking and we're still friends five years later. 00:17:47.002 --> 00:17:55.982 This last semester, I worked on a project with like three other people, did not share my notes, do not have their contact info. 00:17:56.002 --> 00:18:03.002 That said, there's two benefits to the Google Docs system in terms of being able to have a shared document. 00:18:03.242 --> 00:18:05.662 On the one hand, everyone can contribute their notes. 00:18:05.962 --> 00:18:14.722 You can also do the thing of like one person takes notes one class, the other person takes notes the next class, which works surprisingly well. 00:18:14.942 --> 00:18:28.402 See, I also really like this because we could just implement for every class, there is one document and everyone has to sign in and now this is the class document and everyone shares the notes. 00:18:28.922 --> 00:18:36.742 And it is just 300 people in one word document trying to write cohesive notes at any given point. 00:18:36.762 --> 00:18:38.062 Okay, yeah, this is something you said you liked? 00:18:38.082 --> 00:18:38.862 And then editing each other. 00:18:39.122 --> 00:18:42.362 Yeah, so I have sort of experienced this actually. 00:18:42.382 --> 00:18:42.862 What? 00:18:42.882 --> 00:18:47.122 Yeah, so there is, I believe it was a 300 level project class. 00:18:47.302 --> 00:18:50.302 We were coding and it was a coding example. 00:18:51.102 --> 00:18:57.682 And this TA did set up sort of a coding example that everyone could go on to and edit. 00:19:02.242 --> 00:19:06.382 Well, there was kind of a mess, but it got cleaned up pretty quickly. 00:19:06.402 --> 00:19:09.082 I don't know, third years are kind of respectful. 00:19:09.102 --> 00:19:13.682 Yeah, third years are like at a point of like, all right, we can meme a bit, but like, let's chill. 00:19:13.702 --> 00:19:16.682 Yeah, there was maybe three lines of like, just A's. 00:19:18.782 --> 00:19:20.182 Yeah, that sounds about right. 00:19:20.182 --> 00:19:21.722 But otherwise it was fine. 00:19:21.962 --> 00:19:26.502 That said, like, one of the central purposes of the Gull Dock for me is making jokes in the notes. 00:19:26.782 --> 00:19:28.082 I mean, I do that every time. 00:19:28.102 --> 00:19:29.902 Oh, so you're the joke-meister? 00:19:30.662 --> 00:19:42.982 I would not go so far as to say I am the joke-meister, but there is a certain joy in writing something on a Google Doc and then having your friend in the class read it and have to stifle a laugh in the middle of class. 00:19:44.842 --> 00:19:46.142 And that's really fun. 00:19:46.162 --> 00:19:50.762 Just sort of highlight their note and say, this is bad, please retype it. 00:19:50.922 --> 00:20:05.322 Yeah, but the thing is, is like, those aren't memes I can share with everyone else in the class because sometimes they're memes that are like funny to us, the gay students, but are not as funny to the general population of a university. 00:20:05.522 --> 00:20:12.302 That said, I do admire the ability to just have one collective Google Doc. 00:20:12.702 --> 00:20:18.442 But at a certain point, I think that's just like communally taking a class, right? 00:20:18.462 --> 00:20:20.922 That's like you're all in this together type of thing. 00:20:20.942 --> 00:20:22.322 I mean, I kind of like that. 00:20:22.322 --> 00:20:23.302 I do like that. 00:20:23.302 --> 00:20:29.842 I think High School Musical taught us we are all in this together, and that is something that we should carry with us into our university years, of course. 00:20:30.502 --> 00:20:33.742 High School Musical giving us university education. 00:20:33.762 --> 00:20:35.242 It really did. 00:20:35.362 --> 00:20:38.662 Do you want to give me another education intaking method? 00:20:39.022 --> 00:20:40.362 An absorption method? 00:20:40.962 --> 00:20:41.262 Um... 00:20:41.522 --> 00:20:42.502 Of the learning? 00:20:42.522 --> 00:20:48.782 One of the things that I do is if I do have to take handwritten notes, and sometimes I don't, I just doodle. 00:20:50.182 --> 00:20:51.342 And you may think... 00:20:51.602 --> 00:20:57.142 So you sort of sketch out, you make portraits of the education. 00:20:57.482 --> 00:21:07.102 Well, the thing is, it's not exactly related to the education, because it is just random doodles. 00:21:07.682 --> 00:21:11.262 And that may not seem like an educational intake method. 00:21:11.342 --> 00:21:13.822 But then you associate the doodle with... 00:21:13.842 --> 00:21:20.162 You associate the doodle......how the Hoffington inequality does help you select a sample size. 00:21:20.222 --> 00:21:20.842 Exactly. 00:21:20.862 --> 00:21:26.702 This spaceship reminds me of the Duncey ad by Alexander Pope, right? 00:21:27.582 --> 00:21:29.742 That is the associations that get made. 00:21:30.202 --> 00:21:31.482 Can I offer another one? 00:21:31.522 --> 00:21:32.622 Sure, give me another one. 00:21:32.642 --> 00:21:33.382 Just sort of thought of this. 00:21:34.302 --> 00:21:38.102 Little brownies, and they do just contain the class notes. 00:21:39.182 --> 00:21:42.182 So you do eat them, and now you understand the class. 00:21:42.322 --> 00:21:44.662 Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait. 00:21:44.662 --> 00:21:50.442 And I know what you're going to ask, and no, they do not contain little pieces of paper that have class notes. 00:21:50.962 --> 00:21:53.422 So then how do they contain the notes? 00:21:53.562 --> 00:21:55.702 Well, they contain the knowledge. 00:21:55.982 --> 00:21:57.062 They're knowledge brownies. 00:21:57.062 --> 00:21:58.282 It's like weed brownies. 00:21:58.302 --> 00:22:00.582 That makes you smarter than a high. 00:22:03.002 --> 00:22:05.562 Okay, what's the smart drug? 00:22:06.142 --> 00:22:06.802 Knowledge. 00:22:08.042 --> 00:22:10.482 You've never gotten high from knowledge before. 00:22:10.802 --> 00:22:13.082 Buddy, I'm always high from knowledge. 00:22:13.582 --> 00:22:15.682 That's how I maintain my GPA. 00:22:15.702 --> 00:22:18.002 With knowledge drugs. 00:22:18.802 --> 00:22:19.762 That's Ritalin. 00:22:20.182 --> 00:22:22.542 Actually, I take methylphenidate. 00:22:22.882 --> 00:22:24.202 So no, it's not Ritalin. 00:22:24.222 --> 00:22:25.262 It's methylphenidate. 00:22:25.302 --> 00:22:26.202 Gotcha. 00:22:26.282 --> 00:22:26.842 Great. 00:22:27.142 --> 00:22:31.862 You know, I was also thinking, you do want these PowerPoints, right? 00:22:32.102 --> 00:22:40.122 And I am thinking, if you wanted to do it some other way, and sort of maintain the PowerPoints, then you need to do a PowerPoint heist. 00:22:40.362 --> 00:22:40.862 Explain. 00:22:41.182 --> 00:22:43.322 The teacher doesn't always supply PowerPoints, right?

00:22:53.202 --> 00:23:01.742 Because the teacher wants you to come to class, and therefore doesn't give you the PowerPoints, because they assume that if you have the PowerPoints, you won't come to class and just read those. 00:23:02.062 --> 00:23:07.302 That's a good assumption, and also probably really good for people who can't come to class. 00:23:07.562 --> 00:23:19.282 Anyways, let's consider a teacher that won't give you PowerPoints that the teacher absolutely has, and you have gone to their class every day, raise your hand and be like, so when are you posting the PowerPoints?

00:33:02.642 --> 00:33:04.582 They do, but it's to make them curl. 00:33:04.662 --> 00:33:06.862 It's to make them curl and slide in particular ways. 00:33:07.262 --> 00:33:08.422 Great. 00:33:08.742 --> 00:33:11.962 Trust me, I know it doesn't sound like that's how it works. 00:33:12.302 --> 00:33:13.822 Trust me, it is how it works. 00:33:14.142 --> 00:33:16.742 So one thing, no more pebbling. 00:33:17.082 --> 00:33:18.022 So the thing is... 00:33:18.042 --> 00:33:26.782 There is actually just a zamboni, and you do actually have to ride the zamboni as you're throwing the rock, and you have to throw the rock from the zamboni. 00:33:26.802 --> 00:33:28.702 It's sort of a drive-by. 00:33:28.722 --> 00:33:30.042 I will say... 00:33:30.322 --> 00:33:31.922 Actually, no, I've decided. 00:33:31.942 --> 00:33:32.802 I've changed my mind. 00:33:33.022 --> 00:33:34.662 So you have a big zamboni. 00:33:35.162 --> 00:33:49.302 It does not do anything to the ice, though, and it does just from the front of it shoot big spiky rocks, and there is an enemy zamboni, and it also shoots spiky rocks, and your goal is to destroy the other zamboni. 00:33:49.582 --> 00:33:51.062 Welcome to better curling. 00:33:51.082 --> 00:33:53.182 This is sort of what I... 00:33:53.202 --> 00:33:55.442 I don't know if you remember that there was that. 00:33:55.562 --> 00:34:01.722 Honestly, I still cannot believe that it happened, the Mario and Sonic Winter Olympics video game. 00:34:01.742 --> 00:34:04.802 I don't know if that was a thing that you ever played, but it was a video game. 00:34:04.802 --> 00:34:06.502 I rented it from Blockbusters. 00:34:06.522 --> 00:34:16.302 Yeah, it was a game where Mario and Sonic, all the beloved characters of the Marios and Sonics universes, they played different Winter Olympics sports. 00:34:16.642 --> 00:34:19.702 Yeah, they also played Summer Olympics, I remember. 00:34:19.722 --> 00:34:23.702 They did, and both of those were sponsored by the actual Olympics, which is just really... 00:34:24.242 --> 00:34:27.062 Everything about that is the wildest thing to me, and they play curling. 00:34:27.882 --> 00:34:34.462 And to be honest, I am surprised that there weren't more spikes involved, because that feels pretty standard for video game. 00:34:34.762 --> 00:34:41.682 And so maybe the other thing about this, because I really need to make it clear to you how none of this can work in reality. 00:34:43.162 --> 00:34:44.342 So, like, no, it's... 00:34:44.362 --> 00:34:49.842 Sorry, pebbling the ice can work in reality, but spike Zamboni rocks don't. 00:34:50.262 --> 00:34:52.142 Also the flames on ice. 00:34:52.622 --> 00:34:55.382 Okay, the Zambonis also shoot the flames. 00:34:55.682 --> 00:34:57.582 Well, no, no, no, that's not the issue, Clair. 00:34:57.602 --> 00:35:01.142 You have people who aren't in Zambonis, and they have to dodge the flames. 00:35:01.162 --> 00:35:02.282 It melts the ice. 00:35:02.722 --> 00:35:04.202 See, this is why you have Zambonis. 00:35:04.542 --> 00:35:09.862 Their job isn't to redo the ice, it's to remake the ice. 00:35:09.882 --> 00:35:11.362 They're Zamboni pluses. 00:35:11.602 --> 00:35:17.942 So, you know, you have your side of the ice, and you're trying to melt the opponent's side of the ice and destroy their Zamboni. 00:35:18.142 --> 00:35:23.302 And also char their non-Zamboni people who are just running around. 00:35:23.462 --> 00:35:26.342 They have no discernible purpose other than not to be fried. 00:35:26.802 --> 00:35:31.002 If they get fried and all your non-Zamboni writers get fried, you also lose. 00:35:31.442 --> 00:35:32.882 It's a second lose condition. 00:35:32.902 --> 00:35:35.902 Zamboni Wars and the new curling. 00:35:36.202 --> 00:35:36.982 I will say... 00:35:37.102 --> 00:35:38.262 I'll play that with you. 00:35:39.602 --> 00:35:51.702 Okay, I will say that maybe we need to do a proof of concept of this first in a digital space, because I do understand, I don't think any curling rink in reality is ever going to let anyone do this. 00:35:52.342 --> 00:35:54.482 We got in trouble for doing people curling, which... 00:35:54.842 --> 00:35:56.582 Where you curl the people? 00:35:56.822 --> 00:36:01.002 Well, yeah, there's two versions of people curling, both of which we were not allowed to do when we were younger. 00:36:01.162 --> 00:36:06.222 One version is there's like slidey things that you put on your feet to make you slide. 00:36:06.882 --> 00:36:07.422 Skis? 00:36:07.802 --> 00:36:08.182 Nope. 00:36:08.502 --> 00:36:09.062 Blades? 00:36:09.422 --> 00:36:09.762 Nope. 00:36:09.942 --> 00:36:13.262 I don't know anything about ice skating, so I was trying to make that joke. 00:36:13.322 --> 00:36:14.462 What do you put on? 00:36:14.742 --> 00:36:16.922 They're literally just like slidey plastic. 00:36:17.162 --> 00:36:19.122 They're just plastic that is meant to slide. 00:36:19.142 --> 00:36:20.242 And on ice? 00:36:20.262 --> 00:36:20.702 Pretty slidey. 00:36:20.722 --> 00:36:21.642 Yeah, on ice. 00:36:21.722 --> 00:36:24.022 Okay, so I have a secret. 00:36:24.882 --> 00:36:25.782 You can wear shoes. 00:36:25.802 --> 00:36:26.822 It does the same thing. 00:36:26.842 --> 00:36:27.942 No, it doesn't. 00:36:28.262 --> 00:36:30.482 I mean, I've slipped on ice before. 00:36:30.502 --> 00:36:32.662 Yeah, but this is a different... 00:36:32.762 --> 00:36:35.602 Listen, you're not allowed to argue with me about what is... 00:36:38.442 --> 00:36:48.062 My point was, people curling, one version is to put all the slidey things on anywhere where the person's body touches the ice, and you kind of just use them as a rock. 00:36:48.442 --> 00:36:51.722 And just see how far you can get them. 00:36:51.822 --> 00:37:02.182 The other version, which was even more not allowed, was you took the small people, the smallest people, and you put them on the rocks. 00:37:03.382 --> 00:37:08.682 And then they flew down, and everyone had a great time until it wasn't allowed anymore. 00:37:09.662 --> 00:37:11.322 No one ever got hurt, so it was okay. 00:37:11.762 --> 00:37:13.062 No one ever got hurt. 00:37:13.302 --> 00:37:14.402 No, actually not. 00:37:14.462 --> 00:37:15.342 Not doing that. 00:37:15.362 --> 00:37:16.862 People got hurt and curling all the time. 00:37:17.302 --> 00:37:18.882 It's a very extreme sport. 00:37:18.902 --> 00:37:20.282 It's a very extreme sport. 00:37:20.302 --> 00:37:24.302 Listen, you try and brush on the ice like you're brushing your teeth. 00:37:24.322 --> 00:37:27.302 It's almost as extreme as curling too. 00:37:27.662 --> 00:37:30.722 It's true, but you know, it's an extreme sport. 00:37:30.742 --> 00:37:33.082 You just said you slip and fall on the ice all the time. 00:37:33.362 --> 00:37:34.902 And curling, that's death. 00:37:35.262 --> 00:37:35.842 Yeah. 00:37:36.342 --> 00:37:38.542 I mean, you will get run over by the Zamboni. 00:37:38.642 --> 00:37:40.202 Or charred. 00:37:40.502 --> 00:37:42.642 Or hit in the face by a spike clock. 00:37:42.802 --> 00:37:44.702 There's many ways to die in curling. 00:37:44.742 --> 00:37:49.822 The other thing about curling, too, is that it is kind of trench-type warfare. 00:37:50.062 --> 00:37:51.022 Okay. 00:37:51.042 --> 00:37:59.062 Because you can't really go in the middle of that, or you're kind of screwed, because you will get charred, or spiked, or run over. 00:37:59.702 --> 00:38:00.662 You really need to... 00:38:00.782 --> 00:38:04.582 Or just sort of clotheslined by the other people who aren't Zambonis. 00:38:05.482 --> 00:38:07.962 Physical contact is 100% allowed. 00:38:08.142 --> 00:38:08.642 Of course. 00:38:08.662 --> 00:38:09.762 Oh, of course. 00:38:09.782 --> 00:38:10.862 But you still use brooms. 00:38:11.022 --> 00:38:11.822 Just brooms. 00:38:12.362 --> 00:38:17.222 It's like Quidditch, but instead of flying on them, you just sort of whale on each other. 00:38:17.322 --> 00:38:18.482 Yeah, absolutely. 00:38:18.502 --> 00:38:28.982 I think it's also important to note that there is already kind of a set out area that in this version you burn down, because there is a zone in Curling Ice called the house. 00:38:29.342 --> 00:38:32.282 And so your goal is to burn down your opponent's house. 00:38:32.922 --> 00:38:33.762 And that's curling. 00:38:33.782 --> 00:38:35.502 That's often the goal in life, isn't it? 00:38:35.802 --> 00:38:37.242 It really does seem to be. 00:38:37.482 --> 00:38:40.682 And maybe curling can just sort of intensify that. 00:38:40.942 --> 00:38:42.682 I don't want to bring us together. 00:38:42.702 --> 00:38:51.902 I don't want to make things more cordial or polite, because things are fairly polite in curling, except there's a lot of drinking, which can still be quite polite. 00:38:51.922 --> 00:39:00.822 We once played against a team who was just like, was visiting for the tournament and was just very hammered the entire time. 00:39:01.922 --> 00:39:03.742 Which is kind of normal in curling. 00:39:03.762 --> 00:39:07.642 There's a bar above the ice usually, which is also where people watch from. 00:39:07.802 --> 00:39:09.002 Yeah, that's what curling is. 00:39:09.022 --> 00:39:13.382 There's like a zone up there with windows that look out on the ice and there's a bar there. 00:39:13.402 --> 00:39:19.182 Just sort of throw you down your drink like heads and then like a glass of beer comes smashing down. 00:39:19.262 --> 00:39:21.522 Yeah, through the glass that's there. 00:39:22.022 --> 00:39:22.422 Yeah. 00:39:22.522 --> 00:39:28.422 During that game at one point, they were sort of waiting to throw the rock and they were looking for the person who's supposed to throw the rock. 00:39:28.442 --> 00:39:29.682 They're like, hey, where's Jerry? 00:39:29.702 --> 00:39:41.182 And they look up and up there in the window is this guy drinking his beer, like chugging it, looks down, notices him, goes, oh shit, and then runs down and takes a shot. 00:39:41.582 --> 00:39:43.442 So, you know, curling is pretty polite. 00:39:43.562 --> 00:39:46.302 And I think that this is a good way to disrupt that. 00:39:46.322 --> 00:39:50.062 You can, I think, also be as intoxicated as you like playing this sport. 00:39:50.262 --> 00:39:52.922 I do think new curling also is very polite. 00:39:52.942 --> 00:39:56.802 You do have to apologize when you run someone over. 00:39:56.882 --> 00:39:57.962 Otherwise, it's a foul. 00:39:58.102 --> 00:40:00.182 But as long as you apologize, it's okay. 00:40:00.182 --> 00:40:04.622 How many fatalities a game are we talking here? 00:40:04.742 --> 00:40:06.902 Well, what do we consider a fatality? 00:40:07.302 --> 00:40:09.482 Someone is no longer breathing and is dead. 00:40:09.642 --> 00:40:11.842 Do they still have a corporeal form? 00:40:13.882 --> 00:40:21.402 Yes or no, because if they can't be revived and given life again, then I think that's what dead means. 00:40:21.742 --> 00:40:29.562 Okay, but what if hole in their side, but put bandage on it, we all good now. 00:40:29.582 --> 00:40:31.762 Okay, but are they breathing? 00:40:31.942 --> 00:40:35.462 Do they have to be breathing two hours after the game ends? 00:40:37.122 --> 00:40:38.502 I think that they do. 00:40:39.742 --> 00:40:41.922 We might have a problem with their curling. 00:40:43.142 --> 00:40:46.842 Yeah, but you know, that's the type of sacrifices you make when you're playing curling. 00:40:46.862 --> 00:40:49.182 It's the type of sacrifices I always made playing curling. 00:40:49.462 --> 00:40:51.902 Pour one out for all of my teammates who died. 00:40:51.922 --> 00:40:54.582 I can't even believe I survived playing it for six years. 00:40:54.602 --> 00:40:56.482 That game really rocks, doesn't it? 00:40:57.222 --> 00:40:58.002 Yeah, okay. 00:40:58.022 --> 00:41:01.102 Actually, Clair, I've decided I don't want to play curling with you anymore. 00:41:01.122 --> 00:41:02.322 So, cravings solved. 00:41:02.442 --> 00:41:02.822 Great. 00:41:02.842 --> 00:41:07.842 Do you want to finish this off? 00:41:08.082 --> 00:41:08.682 Sure. 00:41:09.102 --> 00:41:10.882 We said 2019 was about finishing things. 00:41:10.962 --> 00:41:12.282 Yeah, I guess. 00:41:12.302 --> 00:41:13.902 Do you want to finish off this episode? 00:41:14.822 --> 00:41:16.002 Can I give you a craving first? 00:41:16.302 --> 00:41:17.642 I mean, that's what I mean. 00:41:17.662 --> 00:41:18.882 Yeah, okay. 00:41:18.902 --> 00:41:22.122 The craving that is our last craving and therefore is the finish. 00:41:23.302 --> 00:41:28.062 Okay, I'm going to give it to you right now. 00:41:28.082 --> 00:41:29.802 It's Cora the Last Airbender. 00:41:29.822 --> 00:41:30.462 That's not the name. 00:41:30.482 --> 00:41:32.482 It's Cora, the Legend of Cora. 00:41:33.462 --> 00:41:39.342 Oh, it's the sequel to your earlier craving of Avatar the Last Airbender. 00:41:39.362 --> 00:41:43.042 Yeah, so it's not just Cora, but I did just finish Cora. 00:41:43.062 --> 00:41:44.142 It's very good. 00:41:44.162 --> 00:41:46.942 It was my second time going through Cora. 00:41:46.962 --> 00:41:48.602 I had seen it before. 00:41:48.622 --> 00:41:49.862 I really like it. 00:41:50.062 --> 00:41:54.422 I do just sort of want to say a couple things that I really liked about Cora. 00:41:54.642 --> 00:41:54.962 Okay. 00:41:54.962 --> 00:42:02.782 After watching all of it consecutively, instead of watching it as it came out weekly, like I did originally, it's so good. 00:42:03.022 --> 00:42:10.382 And you look at Avatar, and everyone is into the traditional ways of bending. 00:42:10.402 --> 00:42:13.982 And then you get to Cora, and it's literally the industrial era. 00:42:14.062 --> 00:42:14.342 Yeah. 00:42:14.362 --> 00:42:27.462 They have industrialized bending, and by the end of the show, it's just, I mean, they're in almost the modern era, essentially, in terms of fantasy world, whatever that is. 00:42:27.482 --> 00:42:34.762 And so my real craving, my craving, what does the next Avatar look like? 00:42:35.242 --> 00:42:36.262 Is there space? 00:42:36.622 --> 00:42:38.082 Do we get space bending? 00:42:38.102 --> 00:42:41.322 Okay, now this, now this I can, see, I was worried. 00:42:41.342 --> 00:42:42.642 What's the next big thing? 00:42:42.662 --> 00:42:51.582 See, I was worried, Clair, because now I've watched Avatar, The Last Airmanter, but I still have only watched one episode of Quora, so I'm not super qualified to speak on Quora. 00:42:51.622 --> 00:42:58.562 Alright, think basically, end of 1800s, beginning of, well, no, they have pretty good cars actually. 00:42:58.782 --> 00:43:00.922 1950s, 1960s. 00:43:01.222 --> 00:43:02.542 Oh, 1950s? 00:43:02.542 --> 00:43:03.742 Baby, I don't know. 00:43:03.862 --> 00:43:06.942 The vibe I got from it was like, turn of the century. 00:43:06.962 --> 00:43:19.922 Oh yeah, no, it super starts in like, maybe 1850s and by the end of the five years of the Quora, I think in terms of technology, it advances pretty significantly. 00:43:19.982 --> 00:43:28.362 The thing about technology and the thing about technology in other worlds, especially in fantasy worlds, is like, it doesn't progress the same way that it does in our world. 00:43:28.802 --> 00:43:36.362 So you have some technology that is still 1850s era, and then you have some technology that's 1950s era, because that's the way that things have happened. 00:43:36.742 --> 00:43:40.202 Next Avatar, how many years in the future? 00:43:40.222 --> 00:43:46.162 Because Cora is, I believe, 50 years in the future of The Last Avatar. 00:43:46.442 --> 00:43:50.802 Is it 50 years again, or is it like 200 years? 00:43:50.822 --> 00:43:52.782 Or is it like 10,000 years? 00:43:52.842 --> 00:43:54.682 What's the next Avatar thing? 00:43:55.042 --> 00:44:00.482 I like the idea that every Avatar we've known is now considered an ancient Avatar. 00:44:01.602 --> 00:44:06.402 Aang and Cora are both considered ancient, once upon a time, Avatars. 00:44:06.402 --> 00:44:08.222 Like they're not even known anymore? 00:44:08.242 --> 00:44:09.902 They're just sort of rumored? 00:44:09.982 --> 00:44:11.842 Well, the Avatars I think are all still known. 00:44:11.862 --> 00:44:16.922 From my understanding, at least, of Avatar The Last Airbender, is that they are kind of still known. 00:44:17.282 --> 00:44:22.602 But it's not the situation of Aang gets advice from the previous Avatar. 00:44:22.762 --> 00:44:27.842 It's been, I think, a couple hundred years is a good amount of time to have passed. 00:44:27.962 --> 00:44:31.802 It's the equivalent of being like, oh yeah, that king 600 years ago. 00:44:31.822 --> 00:44:35.302 Okay, 500, 600 years, this is the future. 00:44:35.322 --> 00:44:37.242 So this is the future, this is the future. 00:44:37.262 --> 00:44:39.742 So, do we have space travel? 00:44:40.002 --> 00:44:42.422 I mean, we have to. 00:44:42.442 --> 00:44:44.962 We have to. 00:44:45.282 --> 00:44:50.722 I think somewhere someone has to have developed space bending. 00:44:51.022 --> 00:44:52.282 The ability to bend space. 00:44:52.302 --> 00:44:58.542 Is space bending a sub sort of thing, or is this like an avatar only thing, or what up? 00:44:58.782 --> 00:45:01.262 I mean, here's my question is like... 00:45:01.402 --> 00:45:04.422 Also, do they meet other species from different planets? 00:45:04.662 --> 00:45:07.182 Is bending only exclusive to the planet? 00:45:07.302 --> 00:45:07.902 Oh, what if? 00:45:08.362 --> 00:45:08.722 Oh, hey. 00:45:08.802 --> 00:45:12.842 Can they teach bending to other species that they unlock different bending? 00:45:13.022 --> 00:45:15.082 What if the aliens are the ones who teach them space bending? 00:45:16.942 --> 00:45:23.442 Like the aliens, there was like, and you know, like we could, you could do the story of like the first contact story. 00:45:23.702 --> 00:45:30.542 Also, space bending is a little OP, because we also have to have time bending if we have space bending. 00:45:30.562 --> 00:45:31.562 Do we have to have that? 00:45:31.942 --> 00:45:34.482 How do we have space bending without time bending? 00:45:34.502 --> 00:45:38.802 Uh, how do we have air bending without vacuum bending? 00:45:38.822 --> 00:45:41.782 That's not the relationship between space and time, but... 00:45:41.802 --> 00:45:42.522 It's pretty the same. 00:45:42.542 --> 00:45:43.442 It's pretty the same. 00:45:44.782 --> 00:45:48.122 I mean, my thought is that it is like bending the vacuum of space. 00:45:48.282 --> 00:45:48.862 I don't know. 00:45:49.662 --> 00:45:50.962 You know, we could have time bending. 00:45:51.082 --> 00:45:52.622 Maybe time bending is just like not... 00:45:52.642 --> 00:45:53.582 Gravity. 00:45:53.702 --> 00:45:55.042 That's space bending. 00:45:55.342 --> 00:45:56.742 But it's also time bending. 00:45:58.242 --> 00:45:58.922 Well, there you go. 00:45:58.942 --> 00:45:59.642 It's gravity bending. 00:45:59.662 --> 00:46:00.562 So space is time bending. 00:46:00.582 --> 00:46:01.102 It's gravity bending. 00:46:01.202 --> 00:46:02.042 It's gravity bending. 00:46:02.062 --> 00:46:03.482 This is the most OP bending. 00:46:03.502 --> 00:46:05.562 And of course the avatar needs to learn it. 00:46:05.722 --> 00:46:07.002 Of course the avatar needs to learn it. 00:46:07.022 --> 00:46:10.502 I think also important is like, do other benders even matter? 00:46:10.562 --> 00:46:11.602 Oh, I got it. 00:46:11.802 --> 00:46:12.382 I got it. 00:46:12.402 --> 00:46:13.302 I got our story. 00:46:13.302 --> 00:46:14.442 All right, give it to me. 00:46:14.462 --> 00:46:17.342 Here's why we've returned 500 laters is... 00:46:17.662 --> 00:46:18.482 500 laters. 00:46:18.562 --> 00:46:20.662 500 laters, we have returned... 00:46:20.782 --> 00:46:21.922 After 500. 00:46:24.722 --> 00:46:27.882 What's the unit's 500 two-thirds is? 00:46:28.202 --> 00:46:29.102 Fuck off. 00:46:29.122 --> 00:46:32.962 So, the avatar has learned space-time bending. 00:46:32.982 --> 00:46:34.742 Maybe it's not 500 laters. 00:46:34.902 --> 00:46:36.302 It is whatever amount... 00:46:36.322 --> 00:46:42.082 Whatever amount of time it takes to meet new species, teach them bending, and the avatar knows it. 00:46:42.562 --> 00:46:52.422 And the avatar's disappeared again, because now there's many, many people, and the avatar did just sort of make a pocket dimension for themself. 00:46:53.802 --> 00:47:09.202 And now is the return of the avatar, because the avatar decided to live out the rest of their life, and this was the first selfish avatar in history, and now this next avatar is the story, and everyone is like, you're the avatar. 00:47:10.282 --> 00:47:11.142 You're an asshole! 00:47:13.362 --> 00:47:22.222 The other thing that I immediately thought of when you said pocket dimension is like, is like, well, it's space-time bending, right? 00:47:22.242 --> 00:47:27.662 So who says they can't just go back in time and get every other avatar with them in the pocket dimension? 00:47:29.482 --> 00:47:32.502 Avatar, the first avatar party. 00:47:35.122 --> 00:47:37.322 It's got to be sick as hell in there, right? 00:47:37.362 --> 00:47:40.742 That's got to be the best, and everyone else on the outside is suffering. 00:47:40.902 --> 00:47:42.902 So we got the avatar dimension now. 00:47:43.142 --> 00:47:44.622 The avatar dimension. 00:47:45.222 --> 00:47:48.302 This sort of means the avatar cycle is pointless now. 00:47:48.662 --> 00:47:50.262 Because they've got all of them, right? 00:47:50.282 --> 00:48:06.502 So wait, does this just mean there's just a pocket dimension with every avatar and they can all just come in and out at will because, I mean, all your vendors that do know spacebending can just open it up for all your non-spacebending avatars or just teach them. 00:48:06.782 --> 00:48:15.042 And now, like, the season climax or, I don't know, series climaxes, every avatar in existence. 00:48:15.342 --> 00:48:21.202 And this is how you do have many different planets is I think you have an avatar for every planet. 00:48:21.322 --> 00:48:22.922 Oh, I like that, actually. 00:48:22.942 --> 00:48:27.762 We've turned this around to being not stupid anymore, being actually interesting. 00:48:28.222 --> 00:48:34.422 Yeah, different avatars for different planets, and I think you have probably conflicts between the different avatars. 00:48:34.442 --> 00:48:48.762 Like, maybe that's the thing, because what you see in Avatar, and I don't know what you see in Korra, but what you see in Avatar is like, the Avatar goes up against powerful forces that are not other avatars. 00:48:49.962 --> 00:48:51.702 But what if Avatar v. 00:48:51.822 --> 00:48:52.582 Avatar? 00:48:52.622 --> 00:48:53.002 Right? 00:48:53.022 --> 00:48:56.042 Like, what if the rival is another Avatar? 00:48:56.042 --> 00:49:03.362 I mean, there is that asshole Avatar that did create the original Pocket Dimension, and they're sort of like, why are you helping these people? 00:49:03.702 --> 00:49:10.282 That one never leaves the Pocket Dimension, because time doesn't mean anything, obviously, when you can time bend. 00:49:10.362 --> 00:49:15.662 That feels like, that just feels like that planet is the one that is like, all of this is meaningless. 00:49:16.022 --> 00:49:17.282 None of this matters. 00:49:17.662 --> 00:49:19.442 How do these traditions even work? 00:49:19.462 --> 00:49:20.462 Why do they even make sense? 00:49:20.482 --> 00:49:21.602 Why do we still do them? 00:49:21.722 --> 00:49:27.042 Which I think is, I assume is something that Korra also maybe deals with a bit here and there. 00:49:28.602 --> 00:49:40.842 If it's not, then it should be, because the idea of why does tradition even matter, I think is interesting when you have the world of the Avatar, where traditions create extremely powerful beings. 00:49:41.762 --> 00:49:45.402 Is it the thing of who cares about any of this? 00:49:46.822 --> 00:49:51.562 Our Avatar abandoned us, benders can't do anything against space benders. 00:49:51.942 --> 00:49:53.942 Space benders are powerful. 00:49:54.602 --> 00:50:01.782 Avatar mode space bender can just create a black hole. 00:50:02.222 --> 00:50:05.062 I think we open with one of the Avatars. 00:50:05.082 --> 00:50:06.762 We don't know it's one of the Avatars. 00:50:06.942 --> 00:50:08.282 There's just a black hole. 00:50:08.302 --> 00:50:13.642 And it does destroy the original planet and all the system. 00:50:13.802 --> 00:50:14.142 Right. 00:50:14.362 --> 00:50:16.662 And like, who did it? 00:50:16.882 --> 00:50:17.642 We don't know. 00:50:17.882 --> 00:50:21.122 And it sends shockwaves to other Avatars. 00:50:21.142 --> 00:50:23.142 Like, oh, there's someone out there. 00:50:23.162 --> 00:50:26.382 How do they do it? 00:50:26.382 --> 00:50:28.482 I feel a disturbance in the Avatar force. 00:50:29.522 --> 00:50:31.342 It is as if a thousand... 00:50:31.402 --> 00:50:33.622 And this is how Star Wars started. 00:50:35.122 --> 00:50:45.422 My thought with someone does this big catastrophic event is maybe it's just that the asshole Avatar leaves the pocket of medicine and is like, all right, I'm ready to what? 00:50:45.442 --> 00:50:46.522 I don't like it. 00:50:47.222 --> 00:50:48.042 What is happening? 00:50:48.342 --> 00:50:51.802 And then goes back in time to try and prevent this. 00:50:55.422 --> 00:51:00.842 But also maybe it's just like, oh yeah, we're opening this series with trillions of people have died. 00:51:00.862 --> 00:51:11.442 Okay, so we do just sort of have Doctor Who Star Wars mashup of like, now we have many different timelines because we do have a bunch of time vendors. 00:51:11.762 --> 00:51:15.482 I mean, this is all going to go back and try to prevent it. 00:51:15.502 --> 00:51:17.702 What did we expect when we made time vendors? 00:51:17.702 --> 00:51:19.682 Yeah, I mean, like, what do you like? 00:51:19.702 --> 00:51:21.762 You got to be respectful of the timeline. 00:51:21.822 --> 00:51:27.082 Actually, what if that's a rule is you can't go back in time unless you're the Avatar? 00:51:27.282 --> 00:51:28.722 Because Avatar mode. 00:51:28.742 --> 00:51:31.762 What if you just can't and then the Avatar is like, fuck that. 00:51:31.902 --> 00:51:35.962 I'm going to save all of these people's lives because I've suddenly decided I'm a good person. 00:51:37.162 --> 00:51:40.582 I've decided I'm doing the right thing argument. 00:51:40.582 --> 00:51:41.362 Love that. 00:51:41.522 --> 00:51:42.202 Exactly. 00:51:42.222 --> 00:51:45.482 And then we explore the Avatar's absolutism. 00:51:45.782 --> 00:51:46.562 Yeah, exactly. 00:51:48.402 --> 00:51:51.662 But we explore what an asshole the person who made the black hole is. 00:51:51.802 --> 00:51:55.022 Yeah, I think that's the Avatar that was the asshole. 00:51:55.182 --> 00:51:56.742 But I think it's the future version. 00:51:57.282 --> 00:52:00.162 Oh, and that's not revealed until later on. 00:52:00.182 --> 00:52:01.362 You don't know which Avatar it is. 00:52:01.402 --> 00:52:02.922 And then it's the spoiler of... 00:52:02.942 --> 00:52:08.102 I think that Avatar learns that it was them from the future that made the black hole. 00:52:08.462 --> 00:52:13.942 Do they feel remorse that now they know that they have to in order to keep the time space continuum stable?
