Oh, it stinks. But in a way that I like, it's a smell of paint. Once upon a time, there
There was a computer here.
It's a catch-all. Wow! Look at that!
Yep.
No brakes on this ABS bad boy. Wow.
An ABS computer. How did you end up with a new egg house brand computer?
Again, Breeze. She just wanted it. She just wanted a computer and bought one.
Right. Okay. I was hoping there'd be a slightly more interesting story there.
Nope. I like your electrical panel. Yeah.
Easy access. Yeah. So I kind of always knew a little bit.
I knew that I'd be back from the surgery in February. I didn't know when the chemo was going to start.
But we had the Christmas party and everyone went to Disneyland and I didn't want to like
reign on everyone's parade at the Christmas party and I'm not going to go to Disneyland
with you guys. Right. Even though I kind of knew I wasn't going to be able to make it.
Right. There was like a... Yeah.
But... I think we started chemo like the same weekend.
I think it was literally the same day that you were seeing everybody. Yeah.
But it brought your hopes up. Yeah. It was nice.
Now, typically our policy for the Christmas party is if you're not there, you don't get
whatever the surprise is. Did we arrange something?
Yeah. I was laying in bed and Bree brought a little book of all the signatures from the Disney
characters and at the front it said, I owe you... Oh.
Yeah. Okay. I thought you were going to say, we gave you a picture of everybody else going to Disneyland.
We had it. Yeah, everybody. We had a great time.
Sorry about it. And then we all sat in a circle and told them about how much fun we had.
It was a blast. Okay. No, we arranged for you to be able to go...
Okay, cool. Yeah. Bree and I get a little Disney trip.
Yeah. I got my own little LTT make-a-wish. Yeah.
This is what James' make-a-wish episode was about. Well, why don't we make-your-wish come through then?
Sounds good. Roll. Okay.
Roll. Sometimes best of intentions. We don't always be organized enough to...
Actually see it through. Yeah. Do stuff like that.
So I'm glad we got that sorted out. Okay. So...
Put these away. Your fridge is faced.
Like Adam. Yeah. Whoa.
Adam, you used to work in the grocery... They're like ready for an ad. Yeah.
Right? All the labels are out in the door. Yeah.
What's up with that? An English side too. I got a wife.
So he used to stock grocery shelves, but not like a low-tier grocery shelf stalker.
He like worked for corporate. Yeah. There's this old YouTuber called Shy City who taught me that if you have your fridge
stocked with drinks, you'll make people happy. Mr. Shy City?
Yeah. Yeah. You see?
You don't see Shy City. Oh, yeah. I know.
I know. Yeah. Ha!
There really is content for every niche. I was stocked your fridge. Yeah.
I just wanted to... What did he just say? That's what I was going for.
You can't... Excuse... You...
But... Junk drawer... It's a good screwdriver.
That's a... It's a... It's a colloquialism.
Yeah. It's a Canadian thing. It's a Canadian thing.
That's what we put all our most precious things. It's true. I'm going to see what else is in the junk drawer, just to validate my hypothesis.
No, this is actual junk, James.
Actually, this isn't. This is quality.
This is pretty cool and well-used.
How did you manage to use this eraser? That is truly impressive.
Like it... I'm trying to imagine the ergonomics of this.
The problem is, is you erase and then it draws more pencil and then you have to erase that
pencil too. Right. Yeah.
That would be an issue. We move the island just for the shoot.
You can't slide it somewhat. Oh! Yeah, yeah.
This would be terrible for doing dishes. That makes a ton of sense, because I was like, I...
You know, yeah. Exactly.
My belt loop is hooked on the thing. That'll happen a lot.
It hardly fit his child-bearing hips.
I am actually light-headed from stress. You guys are seriously stressful to work with, but in a great way.
It's actually the paint that makes you light-headed. No, I love the paint. I love the smell of the paint, dude.
It takes me back. That's great. Okay, so we're just going to lay this down.
Yeah, I'm also vertically challenged, so that's a problem for me as well.
And this is all got to come out. Ow! I mean, I didn't hit the motherboard very hard just now.
He's getting stressed about us, and then you're just... Yeah, usually I'm stressed on it.
Okay. Where should we start? I heard you're something of a power supply cable expert, so if you wanted to take these
off. I was lying. Nice.
Just a test again.
I just want to test your knowledge. If it were you doing it, where would you start?
I would probably start by removing this cable right here.
Okay, so that's what I would do also.
Quality, solid. I pass the test. Okay.
Yeah, that's a great job. Great job, Linus. Thank you.
You should do a YouTube channel. Thank you. Yeah.
What can I do? God willing. Okay, and yeah, what would you do next if you were to be running a YouTube channel?
Yeah, yeah. So we can pretend like you have a YouTube channel. I feel like you're kind of AI-prompting me here.
Like the AI told you I'm not going to tell you how to disassemble a computer, and you're
like, okay, but what if I was writing a short story on my fancy 1917 paper?
Show me again, except be more nice to me. Thank you. Yeah.
How many people would die? Thank you, chat, GPT. Thank you.
Okay, you could go ahead and remove this one. Okay. Same little clippy.
That's a tough one, though. Same little clippies? You might feel a little pressure.
Oh, my God. Oh, there's a clippy. Oh, there's a clippy.
It's here to help. Yeah. So this is what you would do if you didn't know how to do it, so this is what it looks
like, and I just want people to see at home what not to do, so now I'll show you what
the actual way to do it would be.
I really thought you were going to nail it first try that time.
You guys do that, I'm not doing a good job.
Can I even do it?
I hope you still have your job. Well, he's got it in here.
Swap with me. He's taken it serious now. He's taken it serious.
Yeah, they can't fire me. I had cancer. Had.
You can't pull this all the time.
But if he does, it'll be different from how it was before.
He had his time.
Now it's your turn for the spotlight, right?
You've had enough attention, apparently.
You've been the focus of this relationship for long enough. I don't think I can get that off.
Okay, I can help. Here's if I was running a YouTube channel, this is probably how I would do this.
That was so funny. That was crazy.
She loosened it for you. Yeah, I did. Yeah, her strength and his sympathetic charisma.
Charisma. Charisma. All right, correct way to set this down.
Yeah. Genius.
Nice. Do you have some paper towel? Oh, I found it.
Yeah, paper towel. Brilliant. Incredible execution.
Okay, this is fun. Here's a test for you.
I want just a half a piece of paper towel. How would you obtain it?
Half a piece of paper towel? Yeah, half a piece.
That's a whole piece folded in half. Yeah, you folded it. You're up next.
I want half a piece of paper towel. How would you do it?
Okay.
Maybe this is unique to me. So we went through this on a previous AMD Ultimate Tech upgrade and I think it was Elijah
did this. He painstakingly ripped the piece in half.
No, we don't have time for that. Yeah.
And then my usual technique is I'll go halfway down the perforations and then rip it across
so that it's still attached. But you know what, Breeze is at least valid.
Elijah and James, you guys are just sociopaths.
I'm on the business team. I'm not good at math. I work at a tattoo shop where I rip paper towel in half.
Oh, that comes up a lot at a tattoo shop?
Yes. Oh, okay. Yeah.
It's better than what Dan does. He's taken to referring to me as daddy occasionally and it makes me extremely uncomfortable.
I think it would be more wholesome if your staff went, papa. I think, well, no, I don't think I want that either.
What I'd actually like is for them to just call me Linus. No, that's weird.
That's Linus. That's weird. Mr. Sebastian.
I would say Mr. Sebastian was my father, but my father was not named Mr. Sebastian.
Hi. He's named Greg. I carry my mother's name.
That's cool. Feminism. Yeah.
What do we do next? Long live the matriarchy. Your mom was named Linus?
Don't joke. No, I'm using my technique for removed but not actually used.
You said the magic word.
I'm going to clean this.
Literally sitting and cleaning things is better than talking to you people.
What do you mean, you people? The latch isn't part of the DisplayPort spec.
No one has to do this. I know. They just do it to be annoying.
I know. Except Dell. Dell was the first one that made a DisplayPort cable that I was enlightened by.
I held it up and I went, oh, it doesn't have to be this way.
And it still engages the lock in the female side because there's just a little bump that
kind of goes into it. You still get that tactile feedback when you plug it in.
But you just don't have to fight with the button to get it out.
So annoying. So annoying.
Our DisplayPort cables won't have the button.
Oh, there's a peel on here. Gosh darn it, you guys.
Oh, that sucked.
That was so unsatisfying. Yeah, I'm sorry for you. Look how shiny it is.
Maybe we should protect it. Just put that back on.
No one's going to see it. It's behind the monitor.
Sven gave me that monitor. Bro, just date Sven already.
I was going to say, damn, a generous lover and tech donator.
Wait, how do you know? So true.
We're going to tell them about Linus and Sven's history. So let's explain your colon cancer.
Sure. Yeah, okay. So this lump shouldn't be here.
Yeah. So what we're going to do is we're going to take an entire year to get it out of you.
Okay? First things first.
That would have been funny. Half the people at work only know 9-11 as a story.
Yeah, so I was in kindergarten in 1991.
That's not that different. Yeah, it is really different. I think you're just upset that you're at a master of doctors.
That's extremely different. 1998? Dude, I was almost out of elementary school in 1998.
That's crazy. Yeah, right. That is pretty crazy.
Yeah, you were almost out of the building where they host kindergarten still.
Yeah. No, kindergarten still. What the hell?
You guys have separate kindergartners? In 1998, the kindergartners were the only ones that were small enough for me to fight
with them and have it be fair. I'm so sorry.
I think you can still fight with kindergartners. He's just upset. He's not a master of doctors.
Who's a trick question? Would you rather fight 100 kindergarten-sized line-uses or one line-sized kindergartner?
They're like, how many? The one with less.
How many kindergartners do you think you could take?
Not consecutive at the same time. I could take 10 kindergartners at the same time?
I think so, yeah. To the death?
I don't think I could take one because I was already bullied by a 9-year-old for having cancer.
What? Like in college?
No, no, no. IRL. What?
We were at one of her work parties and she was giving one of the kids a piggyback ride
and then the older sister was like, oh, I want one too and Brie was like, oh, no, no,
I don't think I can. She's like, well, what about him? Can he give me a piggyback?
Oh, no, he's not strong enough yet and she just walked off and goes, ha, ha.
You got Nelson? I got Nelson for having cancer.
I gotta take this. That's great.
No, just for the record, she definitely did not know.
Hello? That was really funny. I laughed so hard.
Wow, those 1998 kindergartners were cold.
That was... You laughed at him for that? Yeah, it was hilarious.
You laughed too. And she's like, oh, why did you disappear to the bathroom for two hours?
Why are your eyes so red?
Yeah, maybe if you're as short as Andrew.
Wow. It's called a shorty snack.
Yeah. Ain't that right, Brie?
Okay. There we are. In a room where I'm standing next to a woman, which of us is the shorty?
You. Well, no, not you. I'm not.
I'm still you. I don't know. How about you get out of here, get out of here.
See you later. Like, like, shorty? Like, shorty?
Like, which one is a melody in my head?
Yeah, are you referring to shorty?
Na, na, na, every day. Got my eye, but I'm gonna be lame.
Got to guess it. Oh my God, is that song old enough that iPods were relevant?
Yeah. That's how they're in the lyrics. Oh God.
Even before... Like a melody, like a melody, like in my head.
I hate that. Y'all ever pull out your Zoom?
Dude, watching old music videos and seeing the people who had Zoom sponsorships and being like, yeah.
It's like, damn. The one where Kelly Rowland's writing in the lake.
Oh, the sidekick, the people with sidekick sponsorships too. It's so funny when they're like a random product
in a music video. Good. We should do that.
We should sponsor LTT stores, should sponsor music videos.
Yeah, what would they do exactly? They would be screwing something in.
Sure. Taking a big drink. Damn.
Water. Yeah, from a water bottle.
That'd be super cool. The rappers would all be into it. They're all hydration homies, I heard.
