[That actually gets Kyna to laugh. Good job, Ian.]

you can just make me dream of more lame old music instead

[wittingly]

you know what, you call it lame but here you are talking about it
I think it's because you secretly know it's catchy as hell
I have great taste, nobody doesn't like golden oldies
play My Girl in any room and try to pretend half of them aren't singing along, you can't

[evocation]

do you just pull from those "songs that make white people go crazy" playlists that people always make?
is closing time next?

[wittingly]

no
it's pat benatar

[evocation]

who?

[wittingly]

oh kyna
kyna kyna kyna
sweet kyna
strong kyna
little ball of kyna

as soon as you're a walking talking human again, I'll tell you all about how
we belong to the night
we belong to the thunder
we belong

those mikes hard lemonades were for me

[evocation]

you're going to jail for making dick jokes around me

[wittingly]

every time I said dick to you it's been short for Richard
I'm not sure where all of this is coming from

[evocation]

uh huh
don't worry, i'm 25
you're safe

[wittingly]

34
still old enough to be your father
no wonder you know nothing about good music
damn millennial youths

[evocation]

do a lot of people have kids when they're 9 where you're from?

[wittingly]

classic reverse dateline
it's an epidemic

those nine year olds come in and then it turns out they've been carrying a nintendo switch in the dashboard of their razor scooter

you wouldn't believe the nerve

[evocation]

i officially have no idea what you're talking about
what year is it where you're from?

[wittingly]

what seriously
well
kind of a complicated question, so um

the Judge touched down in late 2018, everything sort degraded really rapidly over 4 or 5 months and then

no satellites, metal's too risky so minimal generators, no cell phones, lots of alcohol as a coping mechanism, and it also sort of stopped mattering when it was Tuesday or when it was Blorbsday or whatever

Start kind of being like a 'what season is it' thing, and I think we went through... two? falls?

so

I don't know, 2019?

[evocation]

jesus
i'm sorry
that's fucking awful

[wittingly]

let's establish a blanket ground rule where you really don't have to apologize

otherwise I'm gonna feel weird telling you about all the alien murder and how they fucking took Starbucks from me

[evocation]

you can have one of the 15 thousand we have in my version of new york
but okay, no more sorrys
