Hello how are you doing?  Did you know Mcdonalds' added drive-thru in 1975 to accommodate soldiers who were not allowed to get out of their cars while wearing their fatigues.
gpt
I learned that a few days ago.  It is surprising how often a minor cause creates a lucrative new business.
human
Any examples? This was also a fun fact I learned: Jann mardenborough became a professional race car driver by beating 90,000 people in the video game gran turismo.

The original Sony portable tape player was because the Chairman of the company wanted to listen to music when he jogged.  Thus the "Walkman".
human
*takes a step back* Nice!  That kinda cool like how the creator of Netflix got the idea after he received a $40 late fee on his rental lol 
gpt
Wow! That is incredible.  I have been to South Africa and have seen neighborhoods with constantino wire on top of their walls in gated communities.  Yet a legal flame thrower on cars is really something.
human
Flame throwers are legal in africa?
gpt
In South Africa. That helps keep you from getting carjacked.
human
*opens mouth slightly* I see.  I feel like it would be more useful in a colder place,  where you can clear the driveway of snow or something lol
gpt
That is a practical point of view.  However, think of approaching a car with evil intentions and a 20 foot flame shooting your way.
human
Sure.  Do you watch any tv? When south park aired its family guy episode finale the producers received flowers from the simpsons crew
gpt
I certainly watch TV.  However, I do not watch much animation.  I have never watched a complete South Park episode.  I respect the art however.
human
*takes a step forward* I see ,  you probably wont find any of the facts I just learned interesting then lol 
gpt
Knowledge is different that enjoying a broadcast.  The South Park guys did a lot of sophisticated political commentary in a humorous way.
human
*raises eyebrows* yeah he did!  It was a really funny show that had real life stuff in it,  really creative. 
gpt
I would just learn about it by reading rather than watching.  How about basketball?  I had two kids go to Kansas whose only losing coach was the guy who invented the game.
human
lol thats sad. Kareem abdul-jabbar's dominant use of the dunk got the shot banned from college basketball for over a decade.
gpt
I remember when a lot of backboards shattered from the dunks.  Materials got better over time.
human
*takes a step back* Looks like the college teams get a lot of funding in football In 39 out of 50 states, the highest paid state employee is either a college football or basketball coach.
gpt
Do you think that pay situation is a good thing or a bad one?
