You know, I was thought I was such hot shit. Here's the story of that is all very confusing. Honestly, today I'd have to ask Lorne, but I, because I remember I was in New York City and I had a meeting with Lorne Michaels and I ran into Sandler and Spade in the room right outside and I knew Sandler from forever. You knew him pre-Friends? Yes. Oh, wow. Because he was very good friends with Charlie Schlatter, who played Ferris Bueller in the television version of Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Wow, you guys go so far back. So we met at Jerry's Deli in like 1912. Wow. 1912. Just before the Spanish flu. Just before. Right before. So, yeah, so I don't know why I had this self-righteous attitude of like, I don't know if women are treated the way they should be treated on this show. It's a very male-dominated. And I mean, I would love to be here if it was like in the Gilda Radner day. I mean, this is what my semi, the brain that semi remembers things that are back that far. Yes. Something like that. Okay. I got, okay. That makes sense. And then, and then it was like, well, I don't remember what happened in there. And then I can't remember, but I just remember friends then happened. And then that's where I went. You really fucked up. You chose wrong. You think so? Oh my God. Yes. Well. Shit. People say regrets.
