11:00 was back then when I don't think Super Mario came with it or maybe it was punch out or another game but I remember I really wanted to play duck hunt all the time punch out and Mario yeah those are the only things I cared about you got Burger time that's brough how do you even know the name of it cuz I I think I think I know most old games yeah did you play it uh yeah on emulator though remember it was the Burger Time arcade game and it was always open dude I always was always open like this was not a game I would have asked forever yeah and my dad caught his cuz it was it was the cheapest one he got it on discount cuz this is so old like that's one of the oldest games you know what it is though I think it was the gaslighting goes it is ████ Mario I'm like it's not Mario yeah it's not the the box art doesn't even look like

11:51 Mario isn't it cool to think that whatever our kids ask now we probably would know how and what to look at that's very I assume so but then I I was I was watching Teletubbies with my buddy's my my buddy's kid and I'm like I don't know anything about this ████ man do you miss the mark with taica when when he asks do you know what he's talking about what he wants I know I know what he wants because um I think we're aware I feel like in this generation it's like you're in tune with your kid you talk to your kid yeah cuz like you know how like in our parents generation they're the generation that view Pets As Farm animal that's true dogs sleep outside whatever this generation it's like oh I have my dog in my bed and our parents like what the ████ that's like having a cow in your bed you ████ weirdo so I think like every generation you get closer and

12:41 closer and closer so in our generation I don't I think we were the pets the kids are the pets so they barely knew us now our kids are actually our kids so like when Tao wants something like we'll go to the store look at things together you know like I'm very in tune or he'll show me things on the iPad so we're way more in tune so I don't we've never had a moment where like what oh man that that's way off it's like it's usually exactly what he wants yeah well that's what I mean yeah that's dope that's true dude remember my parents sneak attacked me one one of my birthdays I got um turtles in thyme oh that's so good W that's a good game but I didn't have Super Nintendo so I immediately started crying a what such a tease I was like I don't have Super Nintendo right they got you the and then yeah I go downstairs and
