46. 1:50really enjoy words and this is a thing i
47. 1:52hear often people say like if somebody
48. 1:53uses a bad word a curse word and then
49. 1:56there's another person who doesn't like
50. 1:59that word being used and they want to
51. 2:00interfere and they want to say something
52. 2:02about that the thing they always say
53. 2:04they yell out they yell out uh language
54. 2:12and that's it
55. 2:16they just yell out
56. 2:17language
57. 2:20well
58. 2:21okay yeah
59. 2:22yeah yeah yeah language this this is a
60. 2:24part of that
61. 2:28yes this goes into the category of
62. 2:31language
63. 2:33but i feel it's a little bit broad of a
64. 2:35statement
65. 2:36for that situation to just yell out
66. 2:38language it's like it's like the same to
67. 2:40me if you see somebody about to get hit
68. 2:42by a bus
69. 2:44and you yell out
70. 2:46transportation
71. 2:50[Applause]
72. 2:55yes
73. 2:56yes you are correct yes this uh
74. 2:59this goes under the umbrella of
75. 3:01transportation that's what
76. 3:03maybe a bit more specific
77. 3:06i actually i recently uh went on this
78. 3:09language course where they tried to
79. 3:10teach me to speak english better and
80. 3:13they made me practice this phrase they
81. 3:15made me practice the phrase
82. 3:17she sells
83. 3:19she shells
84. 3:22by the shore
85. 3:27and that is impossible
86. 3:31i i don't know how anybody can pronounce
87. 3:34that it's so difficult i kept trying i
88. 3:36tried so many times i kept practicing
89. 3:38but then i stopped then i suddenly i
90. 3:40stopped practicing because i realized i
91. 3:42realized that wait a minute wait a
92. 3:44minute i am never gonna need
93. 3:48to say this
94. 3:51why am i practicing like i can't even
95. 3:53imagine
96. 3:56a situation
97. 3:59where where i'd have to say
98. 4:03you know the thing
99. 4:06like like how would that situation go
100. 4:08like first of all i i would have to be
101. 4:12by the future
102. 4:17and then then i would have to run into
103. 4:19someone
104. 4:22who is uh surely
105. 4:24and
106. 4:26and then for some reason for some reason
107. 4:29i i would have to
108. 4:31point her out
109. 4:37and i would have to i'd have to say
110. 4:39to some third person
111. 4:45yeah
112. 4:48she is doing that
113. 4:51like
114. 4:52why why would that happen it's not it's
115. 4:55not going to happen
116. 5:00i'm pretty sure that i will never run
117. 5:02into anybody selling seashells in the
118. 5:03first place
119. 5:05because i can't imagine a worse business
120. 5:08idea
121. 5:12especially
122. 5:13at that location
123. 5:15[Applause]
124. 5:17you know with business it's all about
125. 5:19location location location
126. 5:22and there are three
127. 5:25free seashells
128. 5:28like right next to her so nobody is
129. 5:30going to buy her stupid house
130. 5:33so
131. 5:34so uh if you are selling shells my
132. 5:36advice is that at least sell them as far
133. 5:39from the hugo
134. 5:41as
135. 5:42as possible so
136. 5:44some somewhere where they are scarish so
137. 5:47thanks a lot thank you
138. 5:54you
