16:12
SPEAKER_02: But let's be realistic.

16:17

SPEAKER_00: So if that's fine matters to you, that's fine.
16:20
SPEAKER_02: I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day.

16:43
SPEAKER_00: Okay.
16:43
SPEAKER_00: Okay.
16:44
SPEAKER_00: And so maybe someone's love language, right, is to celebrate these holidays and is to make it a big deal for their significant other.
16:51
SPEAKER_00: Maybe it's their significant other's like love language.
16:53
SPEAKER_00: And so, like I said, if it's your thing, I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day.
16:56
SPEAKER_02: And that's just being politically correct.
