    During a COVID lockdown I was watching a 24 hr enduro sim race, specifically one team on YT. It was the night time portion and a Canadian was on shift while European drivers got sleep. He was super chill, driving amazing, and interacting with the chat out of boredom. So I asked him to say something while my disinterested wife was phone scrolling with nothing better to do…

    TV: “Hi <wife’s name>! I know you’re not into it, but thanks for watching from Australia!”

    wife looks up “Wtat the fuck?”

    Me: “Yeah I asked him to say that.”

    Wife: “That’s so weird. Tell him hi back.”
