“I feel like everybody has one bad interaction a day, arguably more. I mean, I have at least four or five bad interactions a day. You’re in line at the Cage with somebody, but you’re overwhelmed with a class or tired, but it’s someone you know so you feel like you need to say a few nice things to them. Sometimes it goes well. Sometimes it doesn’t. But there’s always a few sinkers, for sure.”
