I filmed this so sorry for any shaky hands!
dang it, I’m sorry I missed that. It reminds me of the scene in good will hunting where the grad student is showing off something he learned to a girl he met at a bar, and then Will goes in and tells him where he read it from, and what he’ll read next year and what he’ll be saying next year.
