Funny everybody says stuff like this, i need a Doug in my life, I want a Ted Lasso in my life, but nobody tries to be like them.

Lol. I'm happily on my way to being a Doug. I'm only 36, but my wife makes fun of me because I talk to all our neighbors. I like to bake more than I can eat, so I started leaving fresh loaves of bread in my neighbors front yard food pantry last year. We're sure I'm going to have the cops called on me at some point because I'll just stop and watch the kids play soccer on the field across the street and cheer them on
