Okay, so they were swingers long well, well, no, 343 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 2: it's it's just a joke. 344 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 4: I don't know. 345 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 2: While long term pair bonds were common and socially recognized 346 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 2: as marriages, polygamy particularly polygony okay, okay, poly okay. Polygamy 347 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: is it's a free for all. Polygony is when just 348 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: the guy gets to have multiple. 349 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, that makes sense. Back in the day, you know, 350 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 4: the warlord or whatever. 351 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 2: Okay, apparently, okay, monogamy was the primary form. There was 352 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of men having multiple wives. I'll get this. 353 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 2: If you were a successful hunter, or you had higher 354 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 2: social status, you had more wives. Yeah, okay, that's that. 355 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 2: That tracks. Wait what is it? What does this say? 356 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 6: Uh? 357 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 2: Unlike some primates, hunter gatherers didn't have consistent sex specific 358 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 2: dispersal patterns at maturity, meaning the sex that leaves the 359 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 2: natal group varied across different societies. What the fuck does 360 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: that mean? 361 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 4: I have no idea. 362 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 2: I don't know why. I asked if you would have 363 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 2: any idea if I would have? Yeah, Okay, well that's 364 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 2: enough googling. Let's get off the computer. 365 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, the computer's bed for your brain. 366 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: How long have you been with your wife? 367 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 4: We've been together for We were together for like about 368 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 4: a year before my son was born, for like like 369 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 4: three years. 370 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 2: Was it an accident or was it planned? 371 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 4: Well, so, the interesting thing is it was like kind 372 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 4: of both. You could say you had. 373 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 2: Unprotected sex and when if it happens, it happens. 374 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, pretty much, because at the time we were kind 375 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 4: of you know, we were doing a lot of drugs 376 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 4: and whatnot, and you know, we kind of thought that 377 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 4: was a good idea.

So when you go to like a 444 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: video game tournament, you have to understand that your social awkwardness, 445 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: like your level of social awkwardness is above the baseline 446 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 2: level of social awkwardness at this event. 447 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess that's a fair point. 448 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. So, like I mean, you 449 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 2: can go, you can go up to anyone and start 450 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: talking to them at this tournament, and if if they're 451 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 2: being weird, that's on them, you know what I mean. 452 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 2: Your when you when you go to what I believe this, 453 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 2: By the way, I fully believe this, And this is 454 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 2: I'm not just trying to be whatever about like video 455 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 2: game tournaments. I love going to video game tournaments, and 456 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 2: there's actually are there are a lot of really cool 457 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 2: people that uh hang out in the Smash Bros. Scene 458 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: that I've met. Any social event Smash Bros Tournament, a party, uh, 459 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: you know, a bar, some some settings, not all of 460 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 2: our settings, but some bar settings, you know, But specifically 461 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 2: at clubs or whatever. In any of it, you know, 462 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 2: if you go out of your way to make conversation 463 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 2: with someone, you are abiding in good faith to the 464 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: social contract. Okay, you're not breaking any for saying interacting 465 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 2: with a person in and of itself is lawfully abiding 466 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: by social contract. Okay, it because it's only if only if, like, 467 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 2: you're talking to someone there and they're making it pretty 468 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 2: abundantly clear that they don't want to talk to you, 469 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 2: then you start to break the social contract if you 470 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 2: continue to talk to them. But a lot of people 471 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: do that because they they aren't aware of the cues 472 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 2: that somebody doesn't want to keep talking to them. But 473 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: you know, generally, I think if you're lawfully abid it, 474 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 2: you're just you're not being a dick. You know, if 475 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 2: somebody is being cold to you at a fucking thing 476 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 2: where people go, sure to play video games, sure to knit, 477 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 2: sure to whatever the fucking thing underneath everything is. But really, 478 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 2: people go places to meet other people. I think, I assume, 479 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: so you're playing the rules of the game here, So 480 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 2: if someone gives you the cold shoulder, that's on them. Fuck. 481 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 2: I want to say, damn it, I don't know if 482 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 2: I told this.

Like, if it's like a bar, I wouldn't. 666 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 2: I won't do that because that's you know what it 667 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 2: could be a group that came out in and of 668 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 2: themselves to have a good time with each other. I 669 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 2: don't want to disrupt the sanctity of that. But if 670 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 2: it's but if I go to something, but if I 671 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 2: go to like a I don't know, I go to 672 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 2: all these weird things around New York, Yeah, where it's 673 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 2: like come meet now. Well, like if it's if it's 674 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 2: a thing where like the point of the thing is 675 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 2: to meet new people, then it's very easy for me 676 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 2: to go up and be like, hey, you guys all 677 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 2: doing But yeah, that's why it's it's best to go 678 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 2: to places like that where the point of the context 679 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 2: is important, right. I would never go up like because 680 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 2: you know, the bar is different from the place where 681 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 2: if I'm at an event where the point of the 682 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 2: event is to talk to people, then I'm you know, 683 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,320 Speaker 2: I have the benefit of the doubt when I attempt 684 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 2: to have a conversation with someone. So anyway, that was 685 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 2: a long rant. 686 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 6: But. 687 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 2: I believe at your dragon ball Z I believe at 688 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 2: your dragon ball Z tournaments you have the benefit of 689 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 2: the doubt when having a conversation. 690 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the odds are probably stacked in my favorite. 691 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 2: Odds just ACKed in your favor. Yeah, just keep going 692 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,760 Speaker 2: to places where odds are stacked in your favor. 693 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good idea, Thank you, GAK. 694 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's weird. Some places are someplaces odds are clear, 695 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 2: Like like like if I see sometimes I'll be at 696 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 2: like the the park and I'll see someone I want 697 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,320 Speaker 2: to talk to, and I like have a fantasy in 698 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 2: my head. I'm like, what if I went over and 699 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 2: talked to that person? And then I'll be like, yeah, 700 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 2: but the context of the that's too iffy of a context, 701 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 2: you know, because who knows this, Yeah, they might just 702 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 2: want to be alone. But if it's like at some 703 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 2: fucking a bar, is a bar is a weird in 704 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 2: between context because one can reasonably expect that one goes 705 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 2: out to bars to meet people. One could also reasonably 706 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 2: expect one goes out to bars to just be hanging 707 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 2: out with their friends. That's a little like that. Context 708 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 2: takes a little bit more courage. But if it's a 709 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,840 Speaker 2: thing where everyone has a fucking name tag on, that's easy. 710 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 6: Mm hmm. 711 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 2: What's your name again? I wish I could put name 712 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 2: tags on the callers. 713 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, that'd be pretty sweet, if there's a way to 714 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 4: do that. 715 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 2: Of my name is Barney, Barney, Barney, you have you 716 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 2: have a two year old son?

And 787 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 2: it's all it's it's not about confidence. It's about context, 788 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:04,760 Speaker 2: or I guess it is about confidence, And the amount 789 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 2: of confidence I have is based on the context, right, 790 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 2: you know, like if I'm in the gecko suit and 791 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 2: I'm chatting with somebody, I have more confidence in that 792 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 2: context because I'm you know, there's a reason for me 793 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 2: to be talking to this person. If I just go 794 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 2: up to somebody randomly at the park, if I were 795 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 2: just starting to ran, If I just went up to 796 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 2: somebody randomly at the park and just started being like, Hey, 797 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 2: can you tell me about your life, that'd be a 798 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 2: weird that would feel uncomfortable. But I but if I'm ware, 799 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 2: But if I set up a bunch of cameras and 800 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 2: I if I set up a camera and I wear 801 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,840 Speaker 2: a gecko suit and a person comes over to me 802 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 2: and we engage in this thing to make this podcast, 803 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 2: then the context is completely different, even if the actual 804 00:46:55,160 --> 00:47:04,399 Speaker 2: conversation is the same.
