Time Text
Greetings, my friends, and welcome back.
It's great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh, serving humanity, as always, just by showing up.
It's a beautiful thing to be able to do that.
Very presence.
Be of service to all of mankind.
I wish everybody knew what that felt like.
800 282-2882.
If you want to be on the program to email address 800-282-2882.
All right, here are all the definitions of bad mamma jamma.
Grab the soundbite again.
This is uh number three unidentified woman, Hillary Clinton Focus Group in um in uh Iowa.
Where in Iowa was this?
I don't know where it was, and I doesn't say, somewhere in Iowa.
And uh we played the sound bites, these people they're going to vote for Hillary, can't name a single thing she's done as Secretary of State or anything else.
They cannot name a specific achievement at all.
And they're not even bothered by it.
They're not even embarrassed they can't.
I don't know.
I don't know.
She just, but she, you know, she can really take care of business.
Right.
And they get to an unidentified woman who said this.
She's a bad mamma jamma.
She's a strong, confident woman.
She knows what she's doing.
She's not afraid to step up.
She's not afraid to take advice, and she's not afraid to say, no, I don't want to do it that way.
I'm gonna do it this way.
You know, I really have to fight things here.
Um I think it's impossible for a rational thinking person to think that about Hillary Clinton.
All right.
But this woman obviously does.
She thinks she does.
And it's when you when you know somebody, and you know A, B, C, and D about them, and then some Nimrod comes along and tells you what they think of them, and they're totally wrong.
Do you not just sit there and go, my God, how can people how do you I marvel at this?
I marvel how she's this is another example.
This is this woman's answer is what she wants to be herself.
And she's trying, you know, you don't agree with that.
This is this woman's telling us what she wishes people thought about her, and she's transferring that to Hillary.
Hillary is what she wants to be.
She wants to be the bad mamma jamma.
She wants to be seen as a strong, confident woman.
She wants to feel like she knows what she's doing.
She wants to feel like she's unafraid to step up.
She doesn't know this about Hillary.
How could anybody know this about she?
But she's transferring this.
It's what people did with Obama.
All right, to hear the definitions of bad mamma jamma from the urban dictionary.
This is somewhat confusing because it just is.
Let me find the first definition.
Uh well, this the first definition is a girl whose body measurements are perfect in every dimension.
Well, we know that's not what we're talking about, so we scrub that.
The second most popular definition is one who can easily kick butt.
That may fit.
And the third more popular, most popular definition of bad mamma jamma is a large man capable of whooping your ass easily.
A bad situation to be in.
That's the third definition of bad mammajamma.
I'm just reading it to you from the Urban Dictionary.
Now, the woman who asked the question, we have moved Bond beyond unidentified.
We know who she is.
Her name is Kendra.
She is a librarian.
And her library must not get any newspapers.
Because Hillary Clinton is anything but competent.
Although, well, may have to withdraw that because the newspapers do present Hillary.
Hey, folks, here's another thing.
Culture shock to me, and I have to work on this.
I mean, not mean some, I don't mean I have to work on this in the future.
What I mean is I have to constantly be aware of this.
I reject everything in the New York Times.
My automatic, and it's knee-jerk, intelligence guided by experience.
If it's in the New York Times, I doubt it.
I have to check it.
I do not treat the New York Times as gospel.
As such, since I think I'm intelligent and that that's the intelligent thing to do, I encounter people to whom the New York Times is gospel, and I have to catch myself.
And it is to every liberal out there, the New York Times is the Pope.
It is infallible.
And whatever is in there is the God awful or God blessed, whichever you want to look at it, truth.
And yet I know that it isn't.
And that's just a microcosm of the entire experience of conservatism versus liberalism left versus right.
And it just, it's it has struck me, the people on the left are the most close-minded, accepting, unthinking, unchallenging, uncritical of everything they believe.
About us, about everything.
They just they're closed-minded on virtually everything.
And the New York Times is gospel and Bible.
Whatever is in that newspaper, no matter how it can be demonstrated to be not even journalistically correct, not factually correct, not correct, opinionated-wise, doesn't matter.
And it's the same thing with Mrs. Clinton.
She is what these women want her to be, or what these voters want her to be.
I will admit that part of this program, I'm I'm hoping that people like that are listening and that we make inroads, that we make headway.
Even if it's just one or two a day, it is an objective I have.
And so I feel like a failure every time I hear sound bites like this.
I feel like an abject.
How can people in my country be this stupid when I'm here on the radio?
Is what I say to myself.
And then I say, maybe I'm wasting my time.
How can I be surrounded by such stupidity when I'm not stupid?
I know, I hear you out there.
Rush, we've been telling you for 25 years these voters are stupid, and you're the ones always had faith in them.
I know.
At the end of the day, I always have had.
And it is, you know, since brings things home to.
And then I stories like this.
You ready for this one?
This was the lead story.
It still is the lead story at the Drudge Report.
Channel 11, CBS News New York, that's Channel 2, I'm sorry, eyeball news too.
Woman says her Wi-Fi connection is making her sick.
Now you this is one of those stories, see the headline, you might read the first paragraph, and you think, okay, comes another kook.
She may be, probably is, but that doesn't mean that this story is going to go away and die.
I mean, look where you cannot smoke now if you're a smoker, because people claiming to be 300 feet away from you can smell it when they are indoors.
So if you have some looney tune coming along here claiming that Wi-Fi is making her sick, and if she lives in an apartment complex, don't be surprised if she makes a move someday to have Wi-Fi disconnected in her building.
Because she shouldn't have to endure being made sick.
Here are the details.
From using cell phones and computers to watching movies online, wireless technology has made life easier, but now.
But now there's a serious downside, some say.
So no matter how good we make it, no matter how much progress there is, technological or otherwise, no matter how much better our standard of living gets, there's always going to be a malcontent that the media finds that wants to wipe it out.
As CBS II's Maurice Dubois, I remember Maurice when I lived in New York.
He was a cub reporter on weekends.
I guess he's now running the stable.
CBS II's Maurice Dubois explained there are those who claim that exposure to Wi-Fi is making people sick, and some people don't even know it.
How does this become news?
One person, how did Maurice Dubois find this wacko?
Seriously, you've got one person who has made a headline on the drudge report.
One person has become a national news story.
Wi-Fi is making her sick.
Suzanne Hoyt is this woman's name, and she says the symptoms are brain fog.
As my worst problem is brain fog.
Suzanne Hoyt said that nothing prepared her for the rush of symptoms that she suddenly developed.
Headaches, perspiration, pain in my jaws, pain in my heart.
It's like physical expansion of the heart, she said.
Suzanne Hoyt said it all started when she installed Wi-Fi throughout her apartment.
I started to be very uncomfortable.
And I didn't know what it was, she said.
With Wi-Fi everywhere, from parks to restaurants and taxis, it turns out that Hoyt is not alone.
Okay.
Now we learn she's not alone.
It was like a deep burning sensation in my face.
It was in my nose and my jaw.
It was, it was like a deep burning sensation.
Yeah, that's what it was, she said.
It's like a deep burning sensation out there.
And it's called, has a name.
It's called Wi-Fi sensitivity.
And doctors say it's a very real condition with serious consequences, even though we are just now hearing about it.
What doctors say it is a very real condition with serious consequences?
Well, the doctor quoted here is an environmental science doctor.
He's an environmental scientist and an expert on Wi-Fi's effects and the scientific link between Wi-Fi and health.
And he says it's clearly emerging.
His name is Dr. David Carpenter, an environmental scientist, which to me disqualifies him immediately.
Environmental scientists just means he's a paid-for toady of the left.
And he's out pushing climate change.
And to push climate change, you have to be critical of progress.
So Dr. David Carpenter has found somehow Suzanne Hoyt.
And together we have a new national plague that we're only now learning about Wi-Fi sensitivity.
Environmental scientist and an expert on Wi-Fi's effects.
He says there is a body of evidence that is strong.
It's not a hundred percent understood, just like when climate change first started.
We can't prove it.
We can't prove it, but if we're right, we've only got 20 years to save the planet.
This is what they said in 1982.
We can't prove it, but if we're right, we've only got 20 years, so we can't wait.
Well, this guy, hey, look, there's a body of evidence.
It's strong.
Not a hundred percent understood, but it's strong evidence that this is a real syndrome that causes real harm to real people.
Dr. Carpenter said it's a significant problem for about 5% of the population.
Many of them have no idea that Wi-Fi is to blame.
We have all of this suffering going on out there.
Heart expansion, burning jaws, burning nose, burning face, burning teeth, deep burning sensation, and everybody who has it is clueless.
They do not know it is their Wi-Fi router that's causing it.
They walk around feeling ill and they don't know what to do about it, said the environmental scientist who's the expert on Wi-Fi sickness.
However, here at the end of the story, it says this.
Other doctors counter that the evidence connecting Wi-Fi to illness just isn't there.
Neuropsychologist Dr. William Barr, oh, an actual brain doctor.
Oh, the actual doctor says it's a psychological phenomenon.
The environmental sciences doctor claims that it's a malady that's affecting 5% of the population, and they don't know it.
Ladies and gentlemen, do you know?
Have you ever stopped to think of the radio waves bombarding you at all hours constantly that you cannot see?
Have you ever stopped to think of it?
You've got it it's I can't I can't name them all.
Every AM radio station where you live, that station's signal is passing right through you.
It's butting up against your brain, it's getting into your sinus cavities, it's getting into your sexual organs that AM FM signal is doing the same.
All of those weather satellites, if your phone can pick up a satellite signal or something, you are in the middle of it too.
The only reason you can't pick out what's in these radio waves is your brain doesn't have a frequency response capable of translating the data in those waves to information that you can understand and hear.
That's why you need a radio to hear what's on AM waves.
That's why you need an a radio to understand what's on FM waves.
AM amplitude modulation, FM frequency modulation.
It's all different.
It's the reason why there's different signal noise ratios, and one sounds better than the other, and it's a reason why AM goes gangbusters at night, because the signal comes off the bottom of the tower.
It's much more conductive to the ground.
FM, high frequency.
Uh, there is no ground conductivity.
It takes power to get an FM signal 30 miles.
But if your radio can pick it up, you're being bombarded by it.
Television stations, if you're in a town at multiple TV stations, every one of those signals is bombarding your precious bodily fluids with its own waves.
The police, every radio in your town, whatever the frequency spectrum you are being bombarded by waves.
You're being bombarded by the Bluetooth in your phone, by the Bluetooth in your iPad, by the Bluetooth in your car, by the Wi-Fi in your home, by all of it.
And now, out of all of that, here comes an environmental scientist who claims of all of these radio waves, it's the Wi-Fi waves that are making people sick.
How in the world can they possibly they can't?
This is this is just more of the same gobbledygook crisis creating and panic mongering that we get every day, every week, from our dear friends on the left.
And I haven't even gotten close to describing all of the different radio waves that are bombarding us thousands of times constantly.
You cannot escape it, folks.
You cannot escape these waves, no matter where you go.
Did a little research here, folks, on this environmental scientist who claims to be an expert in the damage Wi-Fi is inflicting on people.
It turns out that this guy, Carpenter, his research includes studies on the adverse effects of hydraulic fracturing, i.e., fracking.
So he's anti-fracking, farmed salmon, and electromagnetic fields.
He has said that up to 15% of cases of childhood cancer might be caused by exposure to magnetic fields from power lines.
So that's why he's an environmental scientist, and he's obviously pro-solar and pro-wind and uh and all of that.
And in order to advance his other work, this is classic.
This is exactly what they do, folks.
This is a great lesson for you to learn about how the left does things.
They've got an issue that's in trouble, global warming.
It's at the bottom of everybody's list of things they care about.
It has long since been a panic.
It isn't getting warmer.
Every prediction they've made that would happen by now isn't happening.
They're in such bad shape Obama has to chastise the Coast Guard graduating class that they're derelict in dear duty if they do not fight climate change while ISIS has taken over the Middle East.
This is how desperate they are.
So they've been unable, despite all of these efforts they've made over 25 or 30 years, they've been unable to make climate change and global warming the number one issue that they want people to be thinking about.
That equals growth of government higher taxes.
So the way they try to get you concerned about it is to invent nobody wants to be sick, do they?
They invent a new illness.
Yes, they invent a new illness.
And it's got symptoms that you could have any day of the week, and it's blamed on what?
Your Wi-Fi equals progress and high tech, and this is how they try to raise consciousness when all their other lies have not worked.
And that's exactly what's going on.
Interestingly, I got some emails during the break.
What do you mean we're all being bombarded with radio waves?
You are.
We all are.
I mean, I it's indescribable how many.
I mean, a police car goes driving by, they receive radio waves.
They've got two-way communication going, walkie-talkies, radios in the car.
If they can, if their equipment can receive the signal from headquarters, it's hitting you.
Every radio station in town, every TV station in town, every power station, every every uh electricity pole, you've got so many radio frequency waves bombarding you, you can't begin to count them.
The only reason you can't hear radio waves is because your brain doesn't have the equipment in it to translate what's on the waves.
FM frequency modulation means you modulate the carrier with frequency, which does not have nearly the power range.
AM radio's amplitude modulation, meaning you modulate the carrier off the off the tower with voltage.
That's what amplitude is, voltage.
And the higher you go frequency-wise, every signal from a radio tower has a sky wave and a ground wave.
The ground wave is what your radio hears and what's bombarding you, because radio's line of sight.
It does not follow the curvature of the Earth except at night, and it doesn't really do that.
It just bounces off the ionosphere at night.
That's why you can pick up San Francisco or Chicago in New York or St. Louis at night, and you can't in the daytime.
The ion sphere at night is such that signals AM will bounce off.
It doesn't really follow the curvature of the Earth.
No signal does.
It's all line of sight.
The higher frequency, the less the ground wave.
FM is high enough frequency that there's very little ground wave at all.
That's why you uh a building getting in your way will interrupt your signal.
And an AM signal will go right through the building simply because the sky wave is is not nearly as penetrating and powerful because it's going straight up for the most part, where the ground wave is actually on the ground.
The lower AM for you can have a 5,000 watt radio station at 1550 and it'll only go 30 miles.
A 5,000 watt station at 6.30 on the AM dial will go 130 miles.
Same transmitter, same everything.
But if you're in the midst, these waves are all hitting you, and they've been hitting you your whole life.
They were hitting you when you were in the womb.
Your cell phone is emitting radio waves and receiving them like you can't believe.
And they've tried to convince you that your cell phone is causing brain cancer.
The way the left works on this, they've got their cause, in this case, global warming.
You don't believe it.
The vast majority of American people are not believing it because the claims they've made simply aren't coming true.
It isn't getting warmer.
There aren't more and more destructive violent hurricanes.
There have been fewer and fewer.
Everything they've predicted is not happening.
There's more ice in South America.
There's uh it's uh the Antarctica South Pole.
There's more ice at the North Pole.
It isn't happening.
They can't give up, though.
It's too many people's way of life, it's their living, they depend on grants.
And besides, it's a liberal cause celeb.
It's how you get the big governments, how you raise taxes, how you guilt people into supporting all that by convincing them they're responsible for destroying the climate.
So you get them driving as stupid little cars nobody would otherwise drive and doing other things in their lives they wouldn't otherwise do.
You convince them that that is penance for all the destruction that they've done.
And then you got them to go along, vote Democrat, raise taxes, and that's how they pay the price for the damage they've done.
And then they join your army and start ripping other people.
And your kids watch all this crap on TV, start blaming you for destroying the planet and killing the polar bears.
Well, if none of that's working, and it isn't now, as evidenced by the fact that Obama has to go to the Coast Guard Academy graduation and tell them.
These graduating cadets of the Coast Guard, their number one enemy is climate change.
And if they don't fight it, they're derelict in their duty.
That is patently absurd.
But they have to save the issue.
So along comes this carpenter fellow who is a research uh specialist in environmental science.
And out of the blue, he finds a woman who's got every symptom you have during the day.
Everybody feels like they're on fire once a day, especially a pregnant woman.
Everybody feels they got pains, jake aches in their joints.
Nobody is perfectly feeling great 100% of the time.
So you find somebody who's got some maladies, and blame it on their Wi-Fi.
The what the left does is take something that is universally popular, universally necessary, represents progress and forward advancement, and you attack it.
And you blame it for people's sicknesses and their illnesses and so forth.
And you claim that all of this is somehow related to climate change or global warming.
And you want to, and you you you this is how you recruit believers for your cause.
And it's it's common.
It's a common practice.
It's what the left has has always done.
In fact, do you any of you watch the TV show uh Better Call Saul?
It was the it was the spinoff of breaking bad and the the lawyer in Breaking Bad, Stall Goodman, the shyster lawyer who worked with uh the meth king and so forth.
Well, they've given him a series, and the first season is over with.
And it starts way back before the period of time of breaking bad, before Saul Goodman was Saul Goodman.
He was Jimmy McGill from Chicago, who moved to Albuquerque because he's a shyster, and he's starting all over, and he's got a brother who is a respected lawyer in a very respected firm in Santa Fe.
Turns out this brother of his is an absolute fruitcake, nutcase wacko, and they portray him that way.
This guy is afraid of electromagnetic waves.
He will not turn on a light in his house.
He's quit the law firm.
He runs around with lamps, uh, kerosene lamps in his house.
He will not go outside.
He will not let anybody in his house with a cell phone.
They have to put their cell phone, their car keys if they're digital and electronic in his mailbox.
If he does go outside, he puts on this cape made of tin foil from head to toe that rejects all of the electromagnetic.
Now that is exactly what we're talking about, except in that show they did the right thing and made a joke of somebody who believes this.
This guy was scared to death of all the radio waves hitting him, and claiming it was making him sick and giving him incurable diseases.
And they correctly made a joke out of it and identified it for what it is.
It's a psychological disorder.
Except now we have a respected Earth sciences or or environmental sciences doctor claiming now that Wi-Fi is responsible for five percent of the population having these symptoms and look, it makes the number one story on drudge.
So that means a lot of people are going to click on it, and the little seed is going to be planted that Wi-Fi could make you sick.
And that's all the left needs.
And they're off to the races, taking that one little bit of information that's fraudulent, not even anywhere close to true, and everybody's health is the most important thing to them.
And so you just create all kinds of doubt and crisis about progress.
And it it serves the left's purpose of backing up and getting rid of progress and getting back to things that did not cause global warming, a more simpler life, all this cockamami BS that they advocate.
They never take a day off.
They never rest.
Every day we're treated, every week we are treated as something like this.
That is given credence by somebody in the media somewhere.
And they're off to the races.
I want to get back to the phones.
Here's Stephen and Laurel Delaware.
I've been waiting a while.
I appreciate your patience.
Great to have you on the program, sir.
Hi.
Thank you for having me, Rush.
You bet.
Great to have you.
Um referencing what you had made at uh comment towards the beginning of the show about the uh police in Baltimore being accused of not being out and about as much.
Um I'm a frequent um traveler to Baltimore as part of what I do for my job um in the city a lot of the times.
And I have noticed over the past few weeks there is less and less of a police force in the city.
Yeah.
I see more of a police force around the city, though.
Yeah.
Exactly.
You know, as you touch base, you know, is it is it more that the commissioner is actually pulling his policeman back, or is it the DOJ POJ interferences?
Well, you see, this is the the uh police commissioner says he's not doing that, that the DOJ is is mandating this and he's following federal guidelines, which happens to be the truth.
But then the other people say no, the chief is doing this, the commissioner is doing this on his own, because he's got his nose out of joint because six of his cops have been charged with murder and second degree manslaughter by our brilliant little state attorney, and he's in protest.
Okay, you think my cops are the problem?
Well, try getting along without them.
And he's that's one theory that the commission is withdrawing them.
I'm from the area where Sheriff Mike Lewis came uh came up from when he said that he heard uh from the police up there and on his radio that they were told to stand down.
Okay, wait, wait, wait, Sheriff who?
Sheriff Mike Lewis from Watamico County.
Mike was the one who he came up during the time in Baltimore and he brought the armored truck.
He's a he's a Baltimore sheriff, do you say he he's he's a sheriff from down down around where I live, but he went up to Baltimore during the riot.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
Okay.
He's uh he's actually gained quite a quite a bit of uh a name down here for himself by talking about this and everything.
And from what he was saying, you know, the police were out there kind of just you know, stuck.
They they wanted to do the right thing, they were told not to do it, and because of what was going on, they kind of were in fear for their own lives on what they should and shouldn't do.
Should they defend themselves or should they just walk off the job and do and let somebody else take care of it?
And that's what your sheriff said.
That's what the sheriff down here has been saying.
Well, here's the the numbers are in Baltimore, the arrests are down forty percent.
And that's counting all the arrests of the riots.
But the shootings, the incidence of uh murders and shootings is skyrocketing since the end of the riots.
The number of arrests are down, but they're still astronomically high.
Uh it's it's a toughie because you have a lot of ingredients here.
I mean, the the cops, folks, don't I'm not making this up.
I mean, uh you could have heard it yourself if you've been listening.
Eric Holder himself has said it.
He started talking about it in Ferguson, and he talked about it in Manhattan with Eric Garner.
They keep talking about it in Baltimore, and what they say, and and this new babe, this uh Loretta Lynch, attorney general, she says same thing, police presence is intimidating.
Police presence causes problems.
Just the police being anywhere near, because that sets a community on edge because the community thinks the cops hate them.
They think the cops are biased and racist, and uh it doesn't matter that we're talking about a mostly black police department here, by the way, when you talk about Baltimore.
The Obama administration believes and is implementing the belief in the form of new guidelines and consent decrees that the cops are the problem.
They believe that the way and the road to peace in a community is to have the cops as little seen as possible.
Just in the normal course of the day.
If there's something that happens, a crime or violence, and then the cops show up, well, uh fine.
But if, you know, cop walking the beat, bad news.
Cop car driving through a neighbor, bad news.
When nothing's going on, bad news.
That does that is not seen by the community.
We're told as the police doing their job and protecting.
That is seen, we're told by Obama and his minions that that is the police showing force and intimidating the people that live there, and that's causing the unrest, and it's causing the high tension.
And it's leading to unrest, civil and otherwise, and violence.
The Obama prescriptions to get the cat to get the cops out of sight.
So you have that on one hand.
On the other hand, you've got this out-of-control states attorney who's overcharged six cops in the death of this Freddie Gay, Freddie, Freddie, Freddie Gray guy.
And the police commissioner's not dumb.
His cops, his cops are being charged.
They want to put his cops in jail.
The natural thing to do is protect your cops and you would draw them, especially when you see what the regime is doing.
And then when the violence continues, because getting the cops out of there does not quell the violence.
Getting the cops invisible increases violence.
Everybody knows that.
And when that happens and the cops aren't there, well, then you've got the arguments that pop up all over again, and the cops can't win in the way the left has it set up.
The cops cannot win if they do their jobs.
And they cannot win if they react and don't do their jobs.
And so this police commissioner is caught between a rock and a hard place.
He's caught between his mayor and that brilliant state's attorney and the Obama administration, DOJ over here.
And his cops are caught in the middle of it too.
Meanwhile, you haven't heard about it, but the shootings and the violence post-Freddie Gray, post-all those cops being charged, is ramping up.
It's an out-of-control city.
But nobody's doing anything to stop it because that's considered a problem.
I know, I know I gotta take a break.
Something I did not know about, Mr. Snertley has called my attention to.
Yesterday there was a uh uh a column or a post at the Ace of Spades blog.
And it was it was uh a takeoff.
Who was it?
Chris Selizza in the Washington Post in a tribute column to Letterman said, you know, we just we never could tell if Dave was a liberal or not.
Well, of course, now this just that's patently that that's insulting our intelligence.
Two, it's ridiculous, it's off the it's off the charts.
And the fact that Letterman, you can't tell if he's a liberal means you're not looking.
Anyway, I had not seen the Ace of Spades piece, yes.
They snurdly has uh printed it out and given it to me.
And he wants me to discuss it.
And also my uh my first and only well, I actually had two or three appearances on Letterman, just one interview.
And I don't know, maybe I will.
But here's the way this starts.
Liberals, we just can't tell if David Letterman's liberal or not.
No, really.
Well, you could compare his extremely hostile interviews with Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh in one.
He just snapped without even smiling that what O'Reilly was saying sounded like pure B.S. He used the word, with his fawning, tell me more interviews with Rachel Maddow and undisclosed but obvious liberals like Brian Chopper Warrior Williams and Tom Brokaw, and so forth.
I mean Asa Spades here is exactly correct.
But he goes on to say Rush Limbaugh predicted that Letterman would fail at 1130, and he made this prediction even when Letterman was get this number one at 11:30.
That's when Letterman moved, he was at 12:30 in MBC, moved to CBS when they didn't give him tonight show, and I said he's gonna he's not gonna work there.
And I predicted it, and this guy Asa Spades got mad because he loved Letterman back then, and he thought that I was just being jealous.
He admits that I was being churlish and perhaps jealous.
But you know what happened?
