- 0:52yeah so this is a story about
- 0:56someone I used to know
- 0:58who I used to work with, who wasn't very good with technology at all
- 1:01and would constantly mess things up technologically
- 1:05and would click on suspicious links
- 1:08and cause us to all have to go into IT lockdown.
- 1:13And so they would call me and they would be like,
- 1:15can you come here?
- 1:17Something's going on with my computer.
- 1:18And I'd be like, okay, so I go in the office,
- 1:20into that person's office, and they'd be like,
- 1:22try and explain what happened.
- 1:23And they're like, I think someone sabotaged me.
- 1:26I've been sabotaged and I'm like
- 1:29no you
- 1:30just minimized the outlook
- 1:33window and now it is back
- 1:34and I'm going back to my office but it would like every like

- 1:46in our company name with like spelled wrong
- 1:49dot com and you clicked it
- 1:51is this co-worker Dennis

- 2:02the lack of understanding but this person knew enough to like type and i would just do everything
- 2:07wrong wait so they would like minimize a window and immediately think someone's out to get me yeah
- 2:14okay after and no matter how many times they were proven like no this was user error or or not even
- 2:23error just hit another this is what it does when you click this button right like or like my files
- 2:29disappeared and it's like you moved them i found them um but every single time sabotage never who
- 2:37did they did you ever find out who they thought was sabotaging them no it's just general vague
- 2:43saboteur out in the universe in the ether that's such a weird way to live your life just
- 2:52assuming that all the time.
- 2:55I almost feel like at some point it became
- 2:56like a joke because it's like
- 2:58I don't know the situation so I'm just going to be like
- 3:00sabotage. It's like
- 3:02I have things to do. Maybe they just really like
- 3:04that Beastie Boys song.
- 3:06I never heard it.
- 3:08Sabotage.
- 3:10Sabotage.
- 3:13Now you have. Oh yeah.
- 3:14I hate that one.
- 3:16You just heard it basically We should clear that with legal I know because that was so dead on So as to sound exactly like
- 3:28I had my Shazam on.
- 3:29It picked it up.
- 3:30Oh my gosh.
- 3:30Yeah.
- 3:31The remastered version.
- 3:32Joe's too good.
- 3:33You guys are G.
- 3:36That's shorthand for good.
- 3:40You ever been sabotaged?
- 3:43Maybe.
- 3:44I don't know.
- 3:45If I was, I didn't...
- 3:46it was pretty mild
- 3:48yeah
- 3:49what if I had some like some huge thing in my past
- 3:54and I just forgot it
- 3:55I just repressed it
- 3:56that means you're healthy
- 3:57oh repressing memories
- 3:59yeah yeah you're right that's not good
- 4:04you should remember everything
- 4:04especially your childhood I hear
- 4:06you should remember everything especially your childhood
- 4:09your childhood shouldn't be like a mystery to you
- 4:10you should like be able to easily recall a lot of memories from it
- 4:12yes I think that's correct
- 4:14yeah
- 4:15um one quick story really quick it just i think we might have talked about this but i used to go
- 4:22to jelsea's kitchen yeah one time a bird shat upon me yes um and i moved specifically so i
- 4:27wouldn't be anywhere near the where there's a lot of trees out on the patio and um a bird did it
- 4:32and i was first of all i was embarrassed because like god if anyone sees this i'm gonna be so
- 4:36embarrassed and then the manager came over and i was like um excuse me um i don't know why i said
- 4:42one of your birds like it's their birds but i was like one of your birds um dropped on me
- 4:52and it was like oh it did that's good luck and i was like it's gross but then i was thinking they're
- 5:00like oh no it's good luck if a bird does that we'll get you i'll get you something you can
- 5:03clean it off i'm like like what a convenient thing for a restaurant manager who's managing
- 5:09the patio where birds are dropping.
- 5:11I did not want my soup after that.
- 5:14It didn't go in your soup?
- 5:16No, it went on me.
- 5:17But why did you want your soup?
- 5:20You just were over it.
- 5:21Well, once it...
- 5:23Yeah, what if I looked away and boom,
- 5:25in the soup?
- 5:27Hmm.
- 5:28Soup du jour is giardia.
- 5:33Anyway.
- 5:34Soup du giardia.
- 5:37I still like to sit on the patio.
- 5:39It is very pleasant.

- 10:25pound tree branch into a window?
- 10:28All you need's a winch.
- 10:31Cut to...
- 10:33An underground lair below their house.
- 10:40Winch in hand.
- 10:44I'm glad we chose this guy.
- 10:47And what I love about it is he knows we're here and it's killing him.
- 10:57We should kill him.
- 11:01Sounds good.
- 11:02First, I gotta open his mail.
- 11:07Yeah, do the origami.
- 11:10Hold on, let me sneeze in it.
- 11:13That was a great sneeze.
- 11:17Thanks.
- 11:18I like that we're twins.
- 11:21It's great.
- 11:24You ever want to branch off and hurt more than one person?
- 11:29Kinda.
- 11:30Well, this is a great first step.
- 11:32I think we got potential.
- 11:35Cut back to the house.
- 11:39Hey, honey, have you seen my...
- 11:40Have you seen my keys?
- 11:43Why would I know about your keys?
- 11:46I thought you were the last one that had them, that's all.
- 11:50Oh, yeah, I don't think about that stuff.
- 11:53No?
- 11:53You don't think about that stuff?
- 11:55I think about my keys.
- 11:58I'm being sabotaged here.
- 12:00I don't have the bandwidth to think about your keys.
- 12:03Oh, here they are.
- 12:04Nope.
- 12:05Those are my keys.
- 12:05Thank God.
- 12:08Why?
- 12:09What are you thinking?
- 12:10I'm, no, I just need to run to the store.
- 12:13It's a sabotage.
- 12:15I'm telling you.
- 12:16It's okay.
- 12:18I'm, there's not some secret person or persons, twins even.
- 12:25Why would you say that?
- 12:27Because there's not.
- 12:27Why would you say that?
- 12:28There's not.
- 12:30And they're not branching out and starting to sabotage me, too.
- 12:34That's not happening.
- 12:35I'm going to have to take off work.
- 12:37Honey, no, you can't.
- 12:38Nope.

- 12:41Life's crazy.
- 12:42Day 93 of not going to work.
- 12:44I'm pretty sure you don't have a job anymore.
- 12:46They can't legally fire me.
- 12:48Yes, they can.
- 12:49No.
- 12:51At a Christmas party in 2005, my boss got drunk and promised he wouldn't.
- 12:56Via text.
