To themselves. It's not a lot. It's really not a bad thing. I was hoping for more. Yeah. All right. I just thought of something. I didn't say it out loud. There you go. Start that practice. You and I are the 25% in this room. Yeah. Well, good to be unique. Tis the kiss. Tanya has a trending report before we get into the top of the hour in a few minutes, and then more free money to get your bills paid. So, Tanya, what do you have for us this morning in the trending report? What should we ponder while you give us the facts? If your partner complimented somebody else right in front of you, would that be a red flag or a green flag? So compliments are. Yeah, let me. Let me tell you why. Okay, so Kristen Bell, who we all love from Nobody wants this. She went on her husband Dax Shepherd's podcast and revealed that Dax flirts with her a lot, but not in the way that you would think. So he flirts with her by complimenting other people. How was that? How do you do that? She said, they'll be out to dinner, and he'll tell the server, wow, you have incredible eyelashes, gorgeous eyes. And Kristin's take is that's flirting with me because he just made someone else feel good. So the Internet did what the Internet does best, and they had a field day over this. Some people called it gaslighting. A former waitress was saying, it can make someone feel like. Feel uncomfortable. Others say that it's nice. They want to have a partner who is complimenting everybody. Again, two things. One, if you're confident and comfortable in your relationship. Doesn't matter. Now, I want to talk about compliments for. Let's just go on on the compliments for a second. I believe we think of nice things about people so many times and don't tell them and don't say it to them. I believe we think, oh, you know what? That person did a really good job. Or that person is this or did that. We think it. We don't say it. Or you think of your. My mom, for example, and I'm thinking about her, and I'm thinking of her. But I don't call. I'm trying to every. The best I can. Every time I think of saying something complimentary to somebody to tell them to say it to, you know, it makes their day, and it's like, good energy. I feel like you've been doing that a lot lately with us. Thank you. More so than ever before. That's great. Well, then they're all right. Well, that's good. I'll take that. Thank you. That's a compliment. I appreciate that. I notice it. So, like, when you think of somebody.
