spk_2

0:03:19
spk_3
 

to be desperate. Wow. No. I'm not it's just we have to be kinda particular because, you know, they've they've made the laws a little more restrictive on fireworks around here. So I have to keep a record of everything that I sell and everything like that. So it's just it's it's it gets a little bit more complicated, so I have to be a little bit more on top of things. But

0:03:38
spk_2
 

10 people We just need to know we just need to know I mean, what are the city's guidelines on patriotism. Is there a hard line of how many star spangled banners I can give off? Can I play the national anthem? Can I have multiple red, white, and blue streamers on top of my roof?

0:03:59
spk_3
 

What is it? I don't think anybody has any problem with how patriotic you are. Okay, sir? You can be you can be as patriotic as you wanna be. It's more about the danger of the event. Okay? So I'm no one's attacking your patriotism here. Okay? It seems like you think that

0:04:13
spk_2

0:04:25
spk_1
 

for you. My dad wants to be, you know, acknowledged for how patriotic he is. I think he'll kinda quiet down if you if you point out maybe the tattoo he has or the hat or the cape he's wearing. I think maybe that then he'll he'll be a little less combative.

0:04:40
spk_3
 

Is the cape supposed to be a patriotic thing? Yeah. Is the and is the cape supposed to be a patriotic thing? Or is he trying to be a superhero? It doesn't seem patriotic.

0:04:48
spk_2
 

Is this a wonder woman a patriotic thing or a marvel thing?

0:04:52
spk_1
 

Wonder Woman's actually DC. And I think it's, you know, it's all super

0:04:57
spk_2
 

wonderwoman, is it Marvelel?

0:05:00
spk_1
 

No. No. It's DC. Yeah. It's in the DC.

0:05:02
spk_3
 

Wonderwoman is in the shared universe of Superman and Batman.

0:05:07
spk_1
 

Is

0:05:07
spk_2
 

there a place to put down a shield in here or not? And a lasso? Where am I supposed to put this while I shop?

0:05:17
spk_1
 

Debt, it's not because they hate patriotism. It's because most people don't carry those things around with them.

0:05:23
spk_3
 

Yeah. And if you need a place to put it, there is the umbrella, the the wet

0:05:26
spk_2
 

umbrella. Could I check my lasso, please?

0:05:29
spk_3
 

You can put it where we put all the wet umbrellas.

0:05:31
spk_2
 

Lasso? Okay. I'll put it where the umbrellas are.

0:05:35
spk_3
