00:00 I think we live too long. That's why we have time to worry about all this.

00:05 We're not meant to live this long. As a species, we're about 300,000 years old as homo sapiens.

00:12 We've been around as hominids for a few million years, and of course, along with every other life form that exists at the moment,

00:35 People go, "Oh, come on, look at them." Yeah, they got it right early doors.

00:38 Nature keeps testing them. "Do you want eyes?" "No."

00:45 "Not really?" "No."

00:49 I have noticed one thing about the slug and the snail. Let's not split hairs. Let's be honest.

00:54 The snail is basically a slug with a shell on it, isn't it?

00:58 But if you pull the shell off the snail, it starts giving it all, "Oh, I'm dying. I'm dying."

01:07 And the slug is like, "Welcome to the real world, ****."

01:17 [silence]
