00:00We make our furniture so cheap, it costs more to move than throw away and buy new.
00:05That, and people want the latest styles.
00:09Last year's whole-ass chair is this year's front butt, after all.
00:13I mean, this isn't bad. I can probably fix it.
00:16No, you can't.
00:17Then I will recycle it.
00:19Also, no.
