1
00:00:01,282 --> 00:00:05,736
What an intriguing
group of individuals you are ...

2
00:00:05,736 --> 00:00:07,435
to a psychologist.

3
00:00:07,435 --> 00:00:08,440
(Laughter)

4
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,680
I've had the opportunity
over the last couple of days

5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,984
of listening in on some
of your conversations,

6
00:00:14,984 --> 00:00:17,048
and watching you interact with each other.

7
00:00:17,048 --> 00:00:19,158
And I think it's fair to say,

8
00:00:19,158 --> 00:00:20,162
already,

9
00:00:20,162 --> 00:00:25,629
that there are 47 people in this audience,

10
00:00:25,629 --> 00:00:27,637
at this moment,

11
00:00:27,637 --> 00:00:31,890
displaying psychological symptoms
I would like to discuss today.

12
00:00:31,890 --> 00:00:33,042
(Laughter)

13
00:00:33,046 --> 00:00:36,286
And I thought you might like
to know who you are.

14
00:00:36,286 --> 00:00:37,285
(Laughter)

15
00:00:37,415 --> 00:00:39,563
But instead of pointing at you --

16
00:00:39,563 --> 00:00:42,968
which would be gratuitous and intrusive --

17
00:00:42,968 --> 00:00:45,968
I thought I would tell you
a few facts and stories

18
00:00:45,968 --> 00:00:49,570
in which you may
catch a glimpse of yourself.

19
00:00:50,343 --> 00:00:54,578
I'm in the field of research
known as personality psychology,

20
00:00:54,578 --> 00:00:58,017
which is part of a larger
personality science

21
00:00:58,017 --> 00:01:03,126
which spans the full spectrum
from neurons to narratives.

22
00:01:03,497 --> 00:01:05,776
And what we try to do,

23
00:01:05,776 --> 00:01:07,445
in our own way,

24
00:01:07,445 --> 00:01:10,992
is to make sense of how each of us --

25
00:01:10,992 --> 00:01:12,706
each of you --

26
00:01:12,706 --> 00:01:17,105
is in certain respects
like all other people,

27
00:01:17,105 --> 00:01:19,330
like some other people,

28
00:01:19,330 --> 00:01:21,769
and like no other person.

29
00:01:22,675 --> 00:01:25,926
Now already you may be saying of yourself,

30
00:01:25,926 --> 00:01:29,891
"I'm not intriguing ...

31
00:01:29,891 --> 00:01:35,508
I am the 46th most boring person
in the Western hemisphere."

32
00:01:36,030 --> 00:01:38,318
Or you may say of yourself,

33
00:01:38,318 --> 00:01:41,467
"I am intriguing ...

34
00:01:41,467 --> 00:01:45,514
even if I am regarded by most people
as a great, thundering twit."

35
00:01:45,514 --> 00:01:46,513
(Laughter)

36
00:01:46,513 --> 00:01:52,500
But it is your self-diagnosed boringness
and your inherent "twitiness"

37
00:01:52,503 --> 00:01:57,070
that makes me as a psychologist
really fascinated by you.

38
00:01:57,403 --> 00:01:59,973
So let me explain why this is so.

39
00:02:00,467 --> 00:02:04,676
One of the most influential
approaches in personality science

40
00:02:04,676 --> 00:02:06,265
is known as trait psychology,

41
00:02:06,265 --> 00:02:11,770
and it aligns you along five dimensions
which are normally distributed

42
00:02:11,770 --> 00:02:16,824
and that describe universally held aspects

43
00:02:16,824 --> 00:02:19,354
of difference between people.

44
00:02:19,824 --> 00:02:22,153
They spell out the acronym OCEAN.

45
00:02:22,391 --> 00:02:25,441
So, O stands for open to experience

46
00:02:25,441 --> 00:02:27,791
versus those who are more closed.

47
00:02:27,791 --> 00:02:30,914
C stands for conscientiousness

48
00:02:30,914 --> 00:02:34,661
in contrast to those with a more
lackadaisical approach to life.

49
00:02:34,661 --> 00:02:39,154
E, extroversion in contrast
to more introverted people.

50
00:02:39,154 --> 00:02:45,790
A, agreeable individuals in contrast
to those decidedly not agreeable.

51
00:02:45,790 --> 00:02:46,790
And N --

52
00:02:46,790 --> 00:02:51,336
neurotic individuals in contrast
to those who are more stable.

53
00:02:52,427 --> 00:02:55,954
All of these dimensions have
implications for our well-being,

54
00:02:55,954 --> 00:02:58,460
for how our life goes.

55
00:02:58,913 --> 00:03:01,382
And so we know that for example,

56
00:03:01,382 --> 00:03:06,933
openness and conscientiousness
are very good predictors of life success,

57
00:03:06,933 --> 00:03:11,502
but the open people achieve that success
through being audacious,

58
00:03:11,502 --> 00:03:13,680
and occasionally odd.

59
00:03:14,204 --> 00:03:18,647
The conscientious people
achieve it through sticking to deadlines,

60
00:03:18,647 --> 00:03:22,769
to persevering as well as
having some passion.

61
00:03:23,845 --> 00:03:30,246
Extroversion and agreeableness are both
conducive to working well with people.

62
00:03:31,072 --> 00:03:32,980
Extroverts for example,

63
00:03:32,980 --> 00:03:34,835
I find intriguing with my classes,

64
00:03:34,835 --> 00:03:37,180
I sometimes give them a basic fact

65
00:03:37,180 --> 00:03:39,927
that might be revealing
with respect to their personality.

66
00:03:40,467 --> 00:03:44,842
I tell them that it is
virtually impossible

67
00:03:44,842 --> 00:03:49,263
for adults to lick the outside
of their own elbow.

68
00:03:51,018 --> 00:03:52,605
Did you know that?

69
00:03:53,592 --> 00:03:57,861
Already, some of you have tried to lick
the outside of your own elbow,

70
00:03:57,861 --> 00:03:59,793
but extroverts amongst you

71
00:03:59,793 --> 00:04:02,403
are probably those who've not only tried,

72
00:04:02,403 --> 00:04:04,201
but they have successfully licked

73
00:04:04,201 --> 00:04:06,460
the elbow of the person
sitting next to them.

74
00:04:06,460 --> 00:04:07,460
(Laughter)

75
00:04:07,460 --> 00:04:09,300
Those are the extroverts.

76
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:12,759
Let me deal in a bit more detail
with extroversion,

77
00:04:12,759 --> 00:04:15,793
because it's consequential
and it's intriguing,

78
00:04:15,793 --> 00:04:19,273
and it helps us understand
what I call our three natures.

79
00:04:19,273 --> 00:04:21,519
First, our biogenic nature,

80
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:23,019
our neurophysiology.

81
00:04:23,019 --> 00:04:26,549
Second, our sociogenic or second nature,

82
00:04:26,549 --> 00:04:29,846
which has to do with the cultural
and social aspects of our lives.

83
00:04:29,846 --> 00:04:32,438
And third,

84
00:04:32,438 --> 00:04:36,699
what makes you individually you --

85
00:04:36,699 --> 00:04:38,381
idiosyncratic --

86
00:04:38,381 --> 00:04:41,676
what I call your "idiogenic" nature.

87
00:04:41,676 --> 00:04:42,942
Let me explain.

88
00:04:45,077 --> 00:04:48,562
One of the things that characterizes
extroverts is they need stimulation.

89
00:04:49,154 --> 00:04:53,877
And that stimulation can be achieved
by finding things that are exciting:

90
00:04:53,877 --> 00:04:55,164
loud noises,

91
00:04:55,164 --> 00:04:56,137
parties

92
00:04:56,137 --> 00:04:58,036
and social events here at TED.

93
00:04:58,036 --> 00:05:01,106
You see the extroverts
forming a magnetic core,

94
00:05:01,106 --> 00:05:02,859
and they all gather together,

95
00:05:02,859 --> 00:05:04,002
and I've seen you.

96
00:05:04,391 --> 00:05:07,713
The introverts are more likely
to spend time in the quiet spaces,

97
00:05:07,713 --> 00:05:09,535
up on the second floor,

98
00:05:09,535 --> 00:05:13,326
where they are able
to reduce stimulation --

99
00:05:13,326 --> 00:05:17,232
and may be misconstrued
as being antisocial,

100
00:05:17,232 --> 00:05:20,512
but you're not necessarily antisocial.

101
00:05:21,461 --> 00:05:25,595
It may be that you simply realize
that you do better

102
00:05:25,595 --> 00:05:30,006
when you have a chance
to lower that level of stimulation.

103
00:05:31,062 --> 00:05:34,649
Sometimes it's an internal stimulant,

104
00:05:34,649 --> 00:05:35,682
from your body --

105
00:05:35,682 --> 00:05:40,189
caffeine for example works much better
with extroverts than it does introverts.

106
00:05:40,189 --> 00:05:43,367
When extroverts come into the office
at nine o'clock in the morning

107
00:05:43,367 --> 00:05:46,302
and say, "I really need a cup of coffee,"

108
00:05:46,302 --> 00:05:47,574
they're not kidding,

109
00:05:47,574 --> 00:05:48,947
they really do.

110
00:05:49,793 --> 00:05:51,598
Introverts do not do as well,

111
00:05:51,598 --> 00:05:55,056
particularly if the tasks
they're engaged in --

112
00:05:55,056 --> 00:05:56,742
and they've had some coffee --

113
00:05:56,742 --> 00:05:58,879
if those tasks are speeded,

114
00:05:58,879 --> 00:06:00,757
and if they're quantitative,

115
00:06:00,757 --> 00:06:05,151
introverts may give the appearance
of not being particularly quantitative.

116
00:06:05,692 --> 00:06:07,331
But it's a misconstrual.

117
00:06:07,331 --> 00:06:10,277
So here are the consequences
that are really quite intriguing.

118
00:06:10,574 --> 00:06:12,523
We're not always what seem to be,

119
00:06:12,523 --> 00:06:15,807
and that takes me to my next point.

120
00:06:16,300 --> 00:06:17,680
I should say,

121
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:18,985
before getting to this,

122
00:06:18,985 --> 00:06:21,266
something about sexual intercourse.

123
00:06:21,647 --> 00:06:23,903
Although I may not have time.

124
00:06:23,903 --> 00:06:26,729
And so if you would like me to --

125
00:06:26,729 --> 00:06:27,729
yes, you would?

126
00:06:27,729 --> 00:06:28,727
OK.

127
00:06:28,727 --> 00:06:29,727
(Laughter)

128
00:06:30,064 --> 00:06:31,115
There are studies done

129
00:06:31,115 --> 00:06:36,469
on the frequency with which
individuals engage in the conjugal act.

130
00:06:37,541 --> 00:06:39,369
It's broken down by male, female;

131
00:06:39,369 --> 00:06:40,755
introvert, extrovert.

132
00:06:41,219 --> 00:06:42,223
So I ask you,

133
00:06:42,223 --> 00:06:45,360
how many times per minute ...

134
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,530
Oh, I'm sorry, that was a rat study --

135
00:06:47,530 --> 00:06:49,537
(Laughter)

136
00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:55,002
How many times per month ...

137
00:06:55,002 --> 00:06:58,261
do introverted men engage in the act?

138
00:06:58,748 --> 00:07:00,051
3.0.

139
00:07:00,051 --> 00:07:01,747
Extroverted men?

140
00:07:01,747 --> 00:07:03,467
More or less?

141
00:07:03,775 --> 00:07:05,403
Yes, more.

142
00:07:05,758 --> 00:07:06,854
5.5 --

143
00:07:06,854 --> 00:07:08,429
almost twice as much.

144
00:07:09,447 --> 00:07:12,102
Introverted women: 3.1.

145
00:07:12,102 --> 00:07:13,697
Extroverted women --

146
00:07:13,697 --> 00:07:17,098
frankly speaking as an introverted male,

147
00:07:17,098 --> 00:07:18,900
which I will explain later --

148
00:07:18,900 --> 00:07:20,481
they are heroic.

149
00:07:21,164 --> 00:07:22,939
7.5.

150
00:07:24,005 --> 00:07:26,356
They not only handle
all the male extroverts,

151
00:07:26,356 --> 00:07:28,448
they pick up a few introverts as well.

152
00:07:28,448 --> 00:07:30,195
(Laughter)

153
00:07:30,195 --> 00:07:32,515
(Applause)

154
00:07:36,956 --> 00:07:40,083
We communicate differently,

155
00:07:40,083 --> 00:07:41,704
extroverts and introverts.

156
00:07:42,711 --> 00:07:44,164
Extroverts when they interact,

157
00:07:44,164 --> 00:07:48,706
want to have lots of social encounter
punctuated by closeness.

158
00:07:48,706 --> 00:07:51,839
They'd like to stand close
for comfortable communication.

159
00:07:52,611 --> 00:07:54,944
They like to have a lot of eye contact,

160
00:07:54,944 --> 00:07:56,564
your mutual gaze.

161
00:07:57,413 --> 00:07:58,621
We found in some research

162
00:07:58,621 --> 00:08:01,688
that they use more diminutive
terms when they meet somebody.

163
00:08:02,104 --> 00:08:04,816
So when an extrovert meets a Charles,

164
00:08:04,816 --> 00:08:07,830
it rapidly becomes Charlie and then Chuck,

165
00:08:07,830 --> 00:08:09,508
and then Chuckles Baby.

166
00:08:09,508 --> 00:08:11,000
(Laughter)

167
00:08:11,213 --> 00:08:12,461
Whereas for introverts,

168
00:08:12,461 --> 00:08:17,598
it remains Charles until he's given
a pass to be more intimate

169
00:08:17,598 --> 00:08:19,818
by the person he's talking to.

170
00:08:20,251 --> 00:08:23,601
We speak differently.

171
00:08:25,133 --> 00:08:30,284
Extroverts prefer black and white,
concrete, simple language.

172
00:08:32,005 --> 00:08:33,869
Introverts prefer --

173
00:08:33,869 --> 00:08:35,871
and I must again tell you

174
00:08:35,871 --> 00:08:40,636
that I am as extreme an introvert
as you could possibly imagine.

175
00:08:41,076 --> 00:08:43,018
We speak differently,

176
00:08:43,018 --> 00:08:46,883
we prefer contextually complex,


177
00:08:46,883 --> 00:08:48,913
contingent,

178
00:08:48,913 --> 00:08:50,883
weasel word sentences.

179
00:08:50,883 --> 00:08:51,880
(Laughter)

180
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,242
More or less.

181
00:08:53,552 --> 00:08:54,987
(Laughter)

182
00:08:54,987 --> 00:08:56,257
As it were --

183
00:08:56,257 --> 00:08:57,255
(Laughter)

184
00:08:57,255 --> 00:08:59,984
Not to put too fine a point upon it ...

185
00:08:59,984 --> 00:09:01,406
like that.

186
00:09:02,170 --> 00:09:03,571
When we talk,

187
00:09:03,571 --> 00:09:05,595
we sometimes talk past each other.

188
00:09:05,994 --> 00:09:08,621
I had a consulting contract
I shared with a colleague

189
00:09:08,621 --> 00:09:11,978
who's as different from me as two
people can possibly be.

190
00:09:11,978 --> 00:09:13,757
First, his name is Tom.

191
00:09:14,626 --> 00:09:15,839
Mine isn't.

192
00:09:15,839 --> 00:09:17,161
(Laughter)

193
00:09:17,161 --> 00:09:19,350
Secondly, he's six foot five,

194
00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:21,512
I have a tendency not to be.

195
00:09:21,512 --> 00:09:22,505
(Laughter)

196
00:09:22,505 --> 00:09:23,505
And thirdly,

197
00:09:23,505 --> 00:09:26,034
he's as extroverted
a person as you could find;

198
00:09:26,034 --> 00:09:28,555
I am seriously introverted.

199
00:09:28,845 --> 00:09:30,539
I overload so much

200
00:09:30,539 --> 00:09:35,577
I can't even have a cup of coffee
after three in the afternoon

201
00:09:35,577 --> 00:09:37,865
and expect to sleep in the evening.

202
00:09:38,337 --> 00:09:42,289
We had [seconded] to this project
a fellow called Michael.

203
00:09:43,566 --> 00:09:47,626
And Michael almost brought
the project to a crashing halt.

204
00:09:48,814 --> 00:09:53,467
So the person who [seconded] him
asked Tom and me,

205
00:09:53,467 --> 00:09:55,087
"What do you make of Michael?"

206
00:09:55,087 --> 00:09:57,288
Well, I'll tell you
what Tom said in a minute.

207
00:09:57,288 --> 00:10:00,106
He spoke in classic "extrovertese."

208
00:10:00,106 --> 00:10:03,835
And here is how extroverted ears
heard what I said,

209
00:10:03,835 --> 00:10:05,787
which is actually pretty accurate.

210
00:10:05,787 --> 00:10:10,568
I said, "Well Michael does have
a tendency at times

211
00:10:10,568 --> 00:10:14,569
of behaving in a way
that some of us might see

212
00:10:14,569 --> 00:10:17,339
as perhaps more assertive

213
00:10:17,339 --> 00:10:19,344
than is normally called for."

214
00:10:19,344 --> 00:10:21,458
(Laughter)

215
00:10:21,779 --> 00:10:23,555
Tom rolled his eyes and he said,

216
00:10:23,555 --> 00:10:26,747
"Brian, that's what I said ...

217
00:10:26,747 --> 00:10:28,396
he's an asshole!"

218
00:10:28,396 --> 00:10:30,254
(Laughter)

219
00:10:30,254 --> 00:10:31,254
(Applause)

220
00:10:33,676 --> 00:10:35,065
Now as an introvert,

221
00:10:35,065 --> 00:10:40,245
I might gently allude to certain
"assholic" qualities

222
00:10:40,245 --> 00:10:41,642
in this man's behavior,

223
00:10:41,642 --> 00:10:44,445
but I'm not going to lunge for the a-word.

224
00:10:44,445 --> 00:10:45,928
(Laughter)

225
00:10:47,284 --> 00:10:48,383
But the extrovert says,

226
00:10:48,383 --> 00:10:49,462
"if he walks like one,

227
00:10:49,462 --> 00:10:50,471
if he talks like one,

228
00:10:50,471 --> 00:10:51,629
I call him one."

229
00:10:51,629 --> 00:10:53,584
And we go past each other.

230
00:10:53,584 --> 00:10:57,682
Now is this something
that we should be heedful of?

231
00:10:57,682 --> 00:10:58,678
Of course.

232
00:10:58,678 --> 00:11:00,339
It's important that we know this.

233
00:11:00,339 --> 00:11:02,415
Is that all we are?

234
00:11:02,830 --> 00:11:05,370
Are we just a bunch of traits?

235
00:11:05,730 --> 00:11:07,534
No we're not.

236
00:11:08,315 --> 00:11:11,440
Remember you're like some other people ...

237
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,570
and like no other person.

238
00:11:13,570 --> 00:11:16,354
How about that idiosyncratic you?

239
00:11:16,660 --> 00:11:20,021
As Elizabeth or as George,

240
00:11:20,021 --> 00:11:23,602
you may share you extraversion
or your neuroticism.

241
00:11:24,482 --> 00:11:28,525
But are there some distinctively 
Elizabethan features of your behavior,

242
00:11:28,525 --> 00:11:31,804
or Georgian of yours,

243
00:11:31,804 --> 00:11:36,622
that make us understand you
better than just a bunch of traits ...

244
00:11:36,622 --> 00:11:39,025
that make us love you?

245
00:11:39,699 --> 00:11:42,693
Not just because you're
a certain type of person.

246
00:11:43,411 --> 00:11:46,035
I'm uncomfortable putting
people in pigeon holes.

247
00:11:47,248 --> 00:11:49,839
I don't even think pigeons
belong in pigeon holes.

248
00:11:51,664 --> 00:11:54,219
So what is it that makes us different?

249
00:11:54,219 --> 00:11:57,349
It's the doings that we have in our life.

250
00:11:57,349 --> 00:11:59,029
The personal projects.

251
00:11:59,490 --> 00:12:01,328
You have a personal project right now,

252
00:12:01,328 --> 00:12:04,953
but nobody may know it here.

253
00:12:05,711 --> 00:12:07,602
It relates to your kid --

254
00:12:07,602 --> 00:12:09,645
you've been back three
times to the hospital

255
00:12:09,645 --> 00:12:11,998
and they still don't know what's wrong.

256
00:12:13,461 --> 00:12:15,178
Or it could be your mom.

257
00:12:16,251 --> 00:12:18,533
And you'd been acting out of character.

258
00:12:18,533 --> 00:12:20,834
These are free traits.

259
00:12:21,625 --> 00:12:23,482
You're very agreeable,

260
00:12:23,482 --> 00:12:27,007
but you act disagreeably in order
to break down those barriers

261
00:12:27,007 --> 00:12:29,851
of administrative torpor in the hospital,

262
00:12:29,851 --> 00:12:31,661
to get something for your mom ...

263
00:12:31,661 --> 00:12:33,183
or your child.

264
00:12:33,918 --> 00:12:35,476
What are these free traits?

265
00:12:35,476 --> 00:12:38,276
They're where were enact a script

266
00:12:38,276 --> 00:12:40,929
in order to advance a core
project in our lives.

267
00:12:41,943 --> 00:12:44,000
And they are what matters.

268
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,891
Don't ask people what type you are,

269
00:12:46,891 --> 00:12:47,891
ask them:

270
00:12:47,891 --> 00:12:49,941
what are your core projects in your life?

271
00:12:49,941 --> 00:12:51,693
And we enact those free traits.

272
00:12:51,693 --> 00:12:52,901
I'm an introvert,

273
00:12:52,901 --> 00:12:54,221
but I have a core project,

274
00:12:54,221 --> 00:12:57,902
which is to profess.

275
00:12:57,902 --> 00:13:00,025
I'm a professor.

276
00:13:00,025 --> 00:13:03,303
And I adore my students,

277
00:13:03,303 --> 00:13:04,814
and I adore my field.

278
00:13:04,814 --> 00:13:09,919
And I can't wait to tell them
about what's new,

279
00:13:09,919 --> 00:13:11,604
what's exciting,

280
00:13:11,604 --> 00:13:13,855
what I can't wait to tell them about.

281
00:13:13,855 --> 00:13:15,674
And so I act in an extroverted way,

282
00:13:15,674 --> 00:13:17,201
because at eight in the morning,

283
00:13:17,201 --> 00:13:19,740
the students need a little bit of humor,

284
00:13:19,740 --> 00:13:22,214
a little bit of engagement
to keep them going

285
00:13:22,214 --> 00:13:24,105
in arduous days of study.

286
00:13:24,452 --> 00:13:26,606
But we need to be very careful

287
00:13:26,606 --> 00:13:29,562
when we act protractedly out of character.

288
00:13:30,894 --> 00:13:35,626
Sometimes we may find
that we don't take care of ourselves.

289
00:13:37,439 --> 00:13:38,441
I find,

290
00:13:38,441 --> 00:13:42,165
for example after a period
of pseudo-extroverted behavior,

291
00:13:42,165 --> 00:13:45,112
I need to repair somewhere on my own.

292
00:13:46,203 --> 00:13:49,546
As Susan Cain said in her Quiet book,

293
00:13:49,546 --> 00:13:52,349
in a chapter that featured
the strange Canadian professor

294
00:13:52,349 --> 00:13:55,336
who was teaching
at the time at Harvard ...

295
00:13:55,336 --> 00:13:57,138
I sometimes go to the men's room

296
00:13:57,138 --> 00:14:00,834
to escape the slings and arrows
of outrageous extroverts.

297
00:14:01,243 --> 00:14:02,241
(Laughter)

298
00:14:02,477 --> 00:14:04,254
I remember one particular day

299
00:14:04,254 --> 00:14:08,866
when I was retired to a cubicle,

300
00:14:08,866 --> 00:14:11,236
trying to avoid overstimulation.

301
00:14:11,236 --> 00:14:15,250
And a real extrovert came in beside me --

302
00:14:15,250 --> 00:14:16,702
not right in my cubicle,

303
00:14:16,702 --> 00:14:18,734
but in the next cubicle over --

304
00:14:18,734 --> 00:14:21,056
and I could hear various
"evacuatory" noises,

305
00:14:21,056 --> 00:14:22,402
which we hate --

306
00:14:22,402 --> 00:14:23,400
even our own,

307
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,906
that's why we flush during
as well as after.

308
00:14:26,286 --> 00:14:28,018
(Laughter)

309
00:14:28,702 --> 00:14:33,141
And then I heard
this gravelly voice saying,

310
00:14:33,141 --> 00:14:35,450
"Hey is that Dr. Little?"

311
00:14:36,085 --> 00:14:38,014
(Laughter)

312
00:14:38,944 --> 00:14:40,943
If anything is guaranteed

313
00:14:40,943 --> 00:14:45,323
to constipate an introvert for six months,

314
00:14:45,323 --> 00:14:47,083
it's talking on the john.

315
00:14:47,083 --> 00:14:48,198
(Laughter)

316
00:14:48,198 --> 00:14:50,298
That's where I'm going now.

317
00:14:50,768 --> 00:14:52,564
Don't follow me.

318
00:14:52,564 --> 00:14:54,137
Thank you.

319
00:14:54,137 --> 00:14:56,472
(Applause)
