Screw that.

Let's say, for some strange reason, at one point in your life, you NEEDED to know something really complicated about, The Star Wars movies.

Nobody could really blame you for not spending all your life learning all the details about Star Wars.

Just because he happens to need the information at the moment.......too win a bet, let's say
