I know since you live over there in Charleston do you stay out of like I know
that you don't have
social media stuff like that you just keep all that stuff out of your life I
really do yeah like
uh when we shot Vice Principals Walton Goggins and uh like Busy Phillips they
were on there and
they were all they were involved with social media and they were kind of
telling me you got to get in
there it's awesome and so I like had an Instagram account for like a matter of
a few months and was
like fuck this yeah I felt like it was a gateway for just crazy people to be
able to reach out and
touch so I uh yeah it just wasn't that I don't know it wasn't it wasn't my deal
some people I know are
amazing at that stuff but uh yeah it just didn't feel like a natural fit for me
yeah and so but that's
it's just good that you like recognize that yeah it's kind of addicting and it
makes you feel bad
I think sometimes some things are nice to see because it feels inspirational
but then sometimes
you're just like it's yeah you're keeping up this kind of weird void it feels
like I liked it I liked
it purely the only thing I miss about is I like seeing bum fights I like seeing
uh all the school
yard fights uh that was I like seeing fights that's what I like to see on there
oh yeah they have
everything even have gauze on there now so it's fucking it's upscaled it's upscaled
a lot um do
you miss like like being when I when I was a kid like things were dumb like
shit was just you could
be funny all day who you didn't give a shit like somebody had noodles or
something you got home like
there was just shit was possible right somebody had noodles when you got home
or it was just like
everything was gonna kind of be okay do you miss like um but I noticed as I get
older I just my
brain doesn't even come up with like some of the ideas and stuff that I had
when I was a kid and like
like do you notice any of that for yourself like that you felt like your humor
was different then or
that humor changes as you get as you get older I just feel like I feel like if
you're creative being
bored is good sometimes right and I feel like sometimes with these phones with
all this information
all the time it your brain is just constantly occupied by other people's noise
and so I felt
like when I kind of turned that stuff off I just felt like there was all of
this noise that just went
away and then all my stupid ideas could flourish I could make jokes about
noodles anything was possible
yeah that's a good call man yeah it's like yeah because maybe sometimes I think
I miss that is what
I miss I almost miss feeling I know this sounds weird I almost miss feeling
dumb a little bit yeah
not knowing about everything that's going on in the world yeah and not wearing
all these things on my
face that aren't even of my own life kind of in a way you know um and I had
this weird thought about
the other day like say if like you're a parent and you're always seeing like
these cute things that
kids do on tiktoks and different things I wonder if it affects the way a little
bit like if your kid
isn't as boisterous or isn't like does it like I don't know like just I don't
know I thought about
like it takes almost all of our like some of our good mo like our good
reactions or the things that
are kind of supposed to be reserved for kind of real people in our lives does
it start to like take
those reactions to those people does it make any sense yeah no it totally does
I feel you'll see
people on there that are going on these beautiful vacations you're like damn
how do they know about
how do they know to go to these places I don't know this like you start
comparing all these things in
your world to what you see there I mean I'm not someone who's like I'm not
against it all I think
that there's also awesome stuff with just anyone being able to have a voice and
anyone being able
to reach people that have uh what's it come but yeah I think for me I just kind
of I saw that it
probably wasn't gonna be the best thing for me so I just didn't participate
fuck that's bravey
though you're almost like damn Christopher Columbus I feel like you just don't
see a lot of it it's
cool man I'm waiting for it to go extinct and I don't think it ever will so now
I'm just uh I'm like
I'm like uh I'm like the Amish man I'm just pretending like none of these
advancements are there dude
I'm just in my house making rocking chairs and selling you know taffy
Thank you.
