2976: Simply Irresistible

Chemda! I listened to the cellar podcast. It sounded like it was recorded in a dishwasher with a rave going on. You did great. I wish they would’ve talked more about Lois CK. Also the coddling comment was great lol.

The reason Chemda hasn't heard about more mass shootings:

the statistic of more than one a day... "includes gang-related and domestic incidents with at least four or more victims (not all fatal).

By their count, the first mass shooting this year took place inside an events center in Alabama during a New Year’s Eve party. One victim was killed."

But ok let's take a guess:
- well take stock of all people alive right this minute.
- then we take out all younger than 16, all people that are already married, all people that will never marry
- from what's left of course at least the majority aka at least 50.000001% will have already met the person they will marry
- because most people are in a relationship for a few years before they get married so that covers a huge chunk
- and we are taking all ages above 16 here so that means the older you get you will have met a lot of people already at work, in college, on vacation, in your friendgroup
- which BTW has nothing to do with marrying somebody from your hometown so I don't know what that has to do with anything

I think he misspoke. I think it was meant to be by the time you're 16 whatever % has already met the love of their life. So that's where the hometown stuff comes in.

Well if I can't go by what's said and written in shownotes then what can I even comment on?

I read recently, that females make familial bonds with males from other parents they are close to as kids. This means that even though you’re not related, a female rarely pairs with a close male childhood friend. They smell too much like family.

It’s weird because you would think pairing with someone you have so much in common with, same financial back ground, shared experiences and beliefs etc would make excellent life partners but the hormones trick you into looking for partners further afield to mix up the genes.
