I would like you to rule that he should stop saying this name incorrectly and also just to admit

that he's wrong.

Why would you resist that judgment? So my only thing is I actually do pronounce like when I think about like the actor Mario Lopez. Sure. I have to actually think about him a lot. Sure, yeah. Oddly, especially recently. But I have to actually think about that and make myself make that change in pronunciation, which is like, fine, I'm super okay with doing that for a real person. I am, I just don't think that the distinction between fictional character and real human is one where I need to like, worry about it. But why do you say Wario? Oh, that's

lazy pal. Sorry. That's lazy. You don't want to start. It's just as much more. Modeling that up. You know what I mean? Who have you spent more time with Slater or Mario?

Yeah, good point. What would you have me rule if I were to rule in your favor, Andrew? I mean, the general ruling would be just stop rolling your eyes when I do it and just like, don't worry about it. How often is this even happening? Surprisingly often. Why are you always going around the apartment going,

it's me,

Mario. Sometimes I'm like, do you want to play

some Mario Kart? Oh, yeah. Yeah,

I don't like go around like why is Mario Kart so much worse than Super Mario World? It was a

bumper. I

don't know why.

So but the mean ruling would be they have to say bag. They have every time they say the word bag, they have to pronounce it that way. So you get Mario, you get to say, wait, wait. Not like forever, but like,

I don't know, the next two weeks when

they say the two weeks of bag. Yes. To understand how like it actually takes effort. You're going to get two weeks of bag.

I don't even know what that means.

I don't know either, but I'm scared. It doesn't sound good. It sounds better than two weeks of bag though. No offense. I love Wisconsin actually. Here's what I think. I am loathe to try to stamp out regionalism in how people speak. The way that people grow up speaking in different accents is a fascinating reminder that we're a big country with a lot of different experiences. And also trying to wipe out regionalism and speech often is pretty discriminatory and it's saying that people are stupid because they don't talk the way I talk. But Christie makes a good point. If Mario were here and it's pretty clearly pronounced Mario. I don't, that's, yes. It's also important to respect how humans wish to be, you know, how their names are pronounced and how they wish to be spoken of in the world and referred to in the world. Sadly, little Mario's in here to defend himself. I am going to, it's not like me to split the baby, but I'm in a different mindset these days normally. If Disney Plus. And now I do, I do. Where I see the Star Wars show or Andor. Where I see the Star Wars show andor. I did.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

My, my

feeling is Andor. Why not both?

When referring

to

the, to the soon to be. When referring,

when referring to the soon to be sentient being known as Mario, you must say Mario as in it's a me Mario or look at Mario driving so swiftly in his Mario cart. When referring to his cart, you may say Mario. But if only out of consistency, the hobgoblin of minds I like. Since you say Wario say it's a me Mario, Mario cart is acceptable and you can say bag, bag, but do get to know the work of Ed Begley Jr. This is the sound of a

gavel.
