Good morning, Alan. Good morning. Oh, green. Are you wearing? Is that green? We
[00:00:16] Alan: exactly. I’m we color coordinated. I have many of these they’re like from JC penny or something like that. I’m trying brand name is, but they fit me perfectly. And so it’s like, how about one in every color?
And then I have 12 of them now.
[00:00:27] Stephen: That’s good. Cuz Green’s like the opposite of orange. So it’s the antithesis of your favorite color, exactly.
[00:00:33] Alan: That, you know it’s and what’s funny is. I don’t wear as much orange as I once did have I talked about this? I wore so much that I became known as the guy in the orange.
And then I found out that there was a guy that they called the orange man on the east coast. That was actually an oddball, maybe even a Lety oddball. And it was like now that I’m going to more now that I’m more towards the east coast in Cleveland instead of Chicago. And when you go to the [00:01:00] ag, I’d wanna be, oh, there’s that jerk there’s right.
Yeah. Talk to him. So luckily I think I’m different enough that I get to wear orange without being labeled the orange
[00:01:09] Stephen: man. That’s worth, if you go to conventions and stuff like that, or one of the things a lot of places nowadays are having codes of conduct and ways to make it so that everybody there has a good experience, that it shuts down the worst of the trolls, the worst of the bullies in the jerks and stuff like that.
[00:01:26] Alan: But way before you formalize that there was always that underground network. People knew who the jerks were, the people who were bad drunks, the people who were pickup artists, the PE the people that would corner you and have a two hour long conversation on their favorite topic. You know what I mean?
Already back then you had that the, especially, I dunno, the ladies seemed to have the network of warning people away from the people that would take advantage of the fact that you’ve never met them before, and they can be all smooth and charming and slick and get you drunk and take advantage of it.
Like it’s always been [00:02:00] that’s getting together for festivals. Part of it is losing your inhibitions and In a human way saying let’s make sure that we don’t have inbreeding in our community. Let’s go with other communities.
