Rob Cohen - Going Home
I get that too because I, not because of show business, just you go back there and you'll see somebody you didn't really know that well. Right. And they'll look at you and go, "Well, hello." Yeah. - "Been awhile." - Yup. Like, we never called each other when I lived here, why do you think, you know, but this is, people wanna be rubbed the wrong way, it seems like somehow. I don't wanna waste more time on your show than I already have wasted, but in 30 seconds the perfect story for that is, I grew up with this guy named Barry Jones and in junior high school he got a job managing the Dairy Queen across the street from my junior high school. Cut to now, he is still managing the Dairy Queen, it's been years later. And so I went back there, and before I could say anything he's like, "Well, well, well, look who's here! Mr. Hollywood." And I'm like, "How 'ya doing, Barry?" And he's like, "Oh, don't worry, "I'm still managing the Dairy..." Like, he immediately set up this sort of combative scenario. You just want a Peanut Buster Parfait and... Exactly, I just wanted to say hi, but he immediately created this DMZ zone. That's so great. And he's like, "I guess you don't have 'Dairy Queens' in Hollywood." I'm like, "Well, I don't live in Hollywood, I live in Los Angeles." And he's like... Like, they disarm you. You can't say anything. Can't say anything. I should have just gone in and said, "Can I have a Dilly Bar? Thank you," And then left. But it's like, he typifies that problem.
