• 1:11
  SPEAKER_02: Which is just like me.
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_02: Well, it's kind of surprising because I would think that the communication would come from reading back in the day, but it sounds like you shouldn't have a lot of that.
• 1:20
  SPEAKER_01: No, I think communication comes from a lot from your surroundings and how you're brought up.
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_02: That's true too.

• 1:39
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_02: Me neither, now that you say that.

  SPEAKER_01: You can also answer what is something maybe your significant other you're pretty convinced they've never done.
• 1:46
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_01: Or maybe a friend.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_00: So this goes back to college days, but you know, one of the guys on our dorm floor, he did not know how to wash laundry.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: He's never done it.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: I I was one of those that, you know, my mom did laundry for everybody and everything, but it's like, okay, you're going off to college, you're gonna be there.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_00: You this is one of those things that you just have to learn how to do now because you're gonna be on your own.
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_01: I don't remember how I learned how to do laundry.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe watching my mom.
• 2:19
  SPEAKER_02: I I think watching my mom, and also it got to a point where she said, I'm not doing your laundry anymore.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_02: Because you, once I became a teenager, for some reason I was changing like five times a day.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_02: Oh.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_02: Does anybody else have a teenage daughter that they do this?
• 2:32
  SPEAKER_02: I was always changing clothes, and she's like, if you're gonna change that many times a day, it's on you at this point.
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_02: I'm not doing all your laundry for you to wear an outfit for like an hour because you went to Jessica's house.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_01: So you know?
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_01: So we we pretty much established as weird as it still is for you, the fact that she said that she's never really read a book doesn't, I don't know, it just doesn't bother me.
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_01: It's I'm not it it doesn't stand out.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, here's one.
• 2:56
  SPEAKER_02: I'm always shocked to hear when people say they have never learned how to write and read cursive.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, okay.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_02: So that went away for a bit.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_01: This just happened at the doctor's office.
• 3:05
  SPEAKER_01: Friday we had uh, you know, physical time for the uh year.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_01: And Gavin being 12 now, by the way, that's a st I need to spend a minute on the 12-year-old rule in New York.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_01: I'll get there in a minute.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_01: A little bothered by something.
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_01: Uh anyway, he now has to do some forms.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_01: And of course, I have to help him with it.
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_01: And they said, Could you sign your name right here?
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_01: He goes, Well, we never really learned how to sign our name.
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, she goes, Well, you can write your name.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, uh, it's interesting because now I'm seeing it.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_01: So I re I learned cursive.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_02: So I thought they were bringing it back though.
• 3:40
  SPEAKER_02: Are they not?
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_01: I don't I don't know.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_01: First of all, I think it's district by district where they decide to do it.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know what grade they're deciding to start it at.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_01: And I don't know, like if he went to a parochial school, maybe that's still part of the normal curriculum.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_01: I just know it fell out of the norm.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_01: Which it would have fallen.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_01: He's in that spot where I'm like, I'm gonna have to work on figuring out how to teach you a little cursive.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_02: Yes, because well, I mean, uh I don't want to say it's too late, but when they stopped doing it, probably was about the time he was in around second grade.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_02: Oh no, it was before that.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, but it was even before that.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_02: But I learned in second grade.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, which means it just got passed by.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they just they left it.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_02: So for you to do it now, I think it would be kind of weird.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, he can and you can learn anything at any age.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_01: What do you do in a case like that?
• 4:27
  SPEAKER_01: Because, well, wait, can I ask this question?
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_01: Just shifting gears totally.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_01: If you're of an age now where you never learned cursive, do you just get to print your name?
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_01: Eventually you're gonna have to sign a mortgage.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_02: Well, they have the thing now, and this is with mortgages too, where you Oh, it auto-creates your yes, yes, and you click and you go, Do you accept this as your signature?
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_02: Yes, I do.
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_01: That's the answer.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_02: That is the answer.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_01: That's kind of sad.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_01: That's sadder than not reading a book.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_02: I actually like my signature.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_02: Whenever I kind of take time on it, then I'm sorry, to the guy that I signed your shirt on Saturday, it was not not good.
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, it was a it was a pen and unprepared.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, anyway.
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_02: I like my signature, and it's just so funny.
• 5:07
  SPEAKER_02: Gavin doesn't have one.
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_02: No.
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_02: Why would he need one?
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_02: But why would he need one?
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, eventually don't you need it for something?
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_02: Well, what was it?
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, no, don't tell me what he was signing at the doctor's.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_02: That's that's Oh, just some of their normal forms.
• 5:19
  SPEAKER_01: I do want to get into that discussion in a minute.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_02: Let's do that.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_02: But yeah, so basically it's just like, you know, G squiggle, squiggle, squiggle.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_02: That'll get you by.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_02: That's what my signature looks like most of the time.
• 5:31
  SPEAKER_02: Well, yeah, mine too, you're right.
