said seven, eight years ago. What what. was this interaction? So, seven years. ago, um I was on my undergraduate. studies and I was super depressed and I. found one of your videos like when I got. this in YouTube hole and I was so in. love with the comedy and um and I saw. this video where you said that if you. send me snacks from the country, I will. come to this country and you know say. thank you in person. So, I believed. that. I was like, "Okay, I will collect.
all of the snacks that I know from K.". and I send it to you and then no nothing. and and I was like okay. >> oh we didn't did we wait a minute hold. on a second this is important to me you. sent us a bunch of I'm going to say. Kazakhstani. >> snacks. >> yeah that's and and you never heard back. from us I do not recall getting snacks. from Kazakhstan. you have some Kazakhstani snack wrappers. hanging out of your pockets right now. what's going on. >> Listen here's what happened when you did. that a lot of people from a lot of.
different countries sent us snacks. And so a lot of us in the office would. open them, save the letters, and then we. would eat the snacks. And um. >> and you didn't make me aware that I had. been I mean, the gift was to me. >> Can I say though, we did send all the. letters to Mike Sweeney, your. headwriter. So I passed along my. responsibility and now I'm I'm. >> And now you're passing along the buck. >> Now I'm passing the buck along. No, Mike, who was not here to speak for. himself. So. >> Namal, let me make it clear to you. I.
was unaware. But I would like to know. what were the snacks? What are some. snacks from Kazakhstan? What did I miss. out on? >> There were some chips with a taste of. horse meat. >> I know it sounds. >> Oh, Christ. >> I know. Like I love meat, but Well, hold. on. So, wait a minute. >> I can't believe horsemeat flavored chips. didn't make their way to me. Sona, I I remember that week you smelled. like horse. >> and you had all this horse chip crumbs.
around your mouth. >> You know what? I do remember this box. cuz they were very unique snacks and we. tried them just to see how they would. taste. They just tasted like chips if I. remember right. I mean, right. They're. not like. >> So, the horsemeat flavor didn't really. come through. >> No, I have never had horse, so maybe it. did, but I It just tasted like chips. I. couldn't send horse meat because, you. know, food regulations and stuff. So, I. >> I hate you know what the government I. hate when the government won't let us.
send shredded horse through the mail. >> Stay out of my horse meat. >> Exactly. Don't tread on me, horse meat. grabber. >> Um, okay. >> And I sent one of the fine chocolates of. Kazakhstan. By the way, I called the. office even though I was a broke. student. I was call calling the office. and uh had office manager on call and I. was asking if you like um had the chance. of tasting it and I don't remember what.
he said but I was making sure that you. would taste it. So. >> you know what makes me suspicious. >> than that. >> you said office manager. This is not you you're we are this this. is not like an Apple store. This is not. a professional. We're not a Staples. This is a very goofy place. So, anyone. who picked up the phone and said office. manager was probably just some random. idiot. >> Yeah, >> it may not have been someone who worked. here. >> I am Let's cut to the chase. I am sorry,
>> Narimal, that I did not um receive and. acknowledge your gift. That makes me. feel um sad. Not so sad that it I mean it's a sadness. that will be shortlived but um I'm sorry. that I didn't get your horse ships. >> cuz there is a continuation to that. story. >> Oh god. >> So I don't know it's. >> No, keep coming. Keep it going. Keep it. going. We need to hear I just feel badly. for what's coming. >> So um I'm like okay. He didn't respond.
to that. And then I had a graduation. ceremony and I thought okay I need to. invite him but I didn't have money cuz. you know I was a student and there was. only one thing that was uh precious to. me. It was a printer that was a gift. from my mom and I sold it and it was the. ex exactly the price of a letter uh to. send you cuz it was a FedEx and it was.
expensive. I. >> wait wait wait wait. You sold a printer. that that prints out, you know, emails, any kind, right? A real printer. >> A printer that copies and also scans and. also print. >> Wait a minute. You sold that and that's. how much it costs to send a letter from. Kazakhstan to Los Angeles. >> to It was like a how to say it's like in. 3 4 days. It was like a very fast. delivery. So it cost that much. >> Yeah. Was this Did you print your letter.
with this printer or was it handwritten? >> Yeah, of course. Before before I sold. it, I was like, "This is your last.". >> It's like the gift of the magi. It is. >> You know, uh I I I sold my hair to buy. you watch fob. >> The watch fob. And that's so funny. I. sold my watch fob to buy you this comb. >> Yeah. >> Um that's the trick ending. Sorry. It's. a Henry story that um no one cares about. anymore. But um and I'm thanks for the. help with the watch fob cuz you actually.

Listen, >> so I helped you and you're going to. insult me. >> That's not an insult. >> That is an insult. >> That's not an insult. >> Well, it's a lie. >> It's a lie, but it's not an insult. >> I do have some pearl inlay combs on me, though. >> Wow.
