I was just reading about that.
In fact, it's called cushion dating.
So that you might be serious with person X, but you have a cushion of persons Y, Z, A, and B as your emotional support should that not go right.
Wow.
Yeah.
Cushion dating.
Have you heard of that?
Yeah.
I guess it's like...
Your emergency school or your second-choice school when you're applying for colleges, right?
Right.
You have that in dating.
Like, I'm applying to Stanford, but I got CSUN in case things go wrong.
Right.
But in this case, it's more than that.
You're taking courses at CSUN in case you flunk out of Stanford.
Really?
Yeah, so it's more than just, I've applied.
I never went to college.
I never applied for college.
You know, that's one of the things I believe you should be thankful for.

Let me ask you a question.
I just want to say to the public, he has two really wonderful children.
They are kind, mature, well-mannered.
They're really wonderful kids.
Are they being affected?
Forget the COVID lockdown.
Are they being affected by the rioting and the turbulence?
Well, they're being affected.
They're not being affected by what's going on in the streets, but they're definitely being affected by the political climate.
They graduated the eighth grade.
They have to put their statement, you know, a song lyric or a cliche or string some words together under their picture.
My son is a little bit of a rebel, and he said, he announced at the table he was going to put...
Make America Great Again under his picture.
My daughter said, no, you're not because you won't be able to show up at school on the ninth grade.
I don't want to be chased around with a stick for my entire high school career.
Think about that.
You're doing such a good job.
Folks, he's terrific.
Watch us in no safe spaces and get his book.
I'm your emotional support animal.
