Big shot? [ they don't sound disgusted, though, only amused. ] No, it's fine. I'm just making sure everything is in working order. I haven't heard any complaints yet, but at the rate people tried to break things...
Exactly like that. [ in a bit of a good job!! tone, which is maybe a tad condescending ] A lot of people used to argue it wasn't as good, but I think that movement died out as the world became more and more digitally focused.

Also wow kind of squinting at this tone. He's not a dinosaur, come on man. ]

Hmm. Originally? California. You?

[ they tap their chin as they think ]
