The Ricky Gervais show Leg rubber

[@bremCZ]

I bet the "leg rubber" actually had some reasonable advice and Karl did what he always does and remembers half of what was said and then just adds words he knows to fill the gaps.

[@bremCZ]

@JacobofhouseTravillski No, that's mental.

The thing the leg rubber was doing was a femoral or sciatic nerve test. Ricky is so close-minded. He just instantly assumes he knows about everything.

If you experience nerve irritation in your legs, depending on the cause, it can be relieved by an exercise called 'Nerve flossing', whereby you perform specific movements that 'floss' and lengthen the nerve, reducing the irritation. This could be what Carl meant by him having short nerves

It's kinda fun figuring out what's going on in Karl's life that even he doesn't fully realize. It's like he walked into a chiropractic building and didn't even know where he was going. I have a strong feeling his "looking at me toes" story is him trying to recall the act of laying down and thinking about different parts of your body "shutting down" for the night, starting at your toes.

After busting into laughter uncontrollably in response to her outlandish comments. I said, “ You’re so funny “!! Suddenly the look on her face became stone serious as she then replied, “ How do you mean that “?! Lmfao 🤣 Once I could stop laughing even harder. I simply said, “ You know, as in Ha Ha Ha”! Her face remained serious and for approx. 30 seconds you could see she had to think about my response. Finally she smiled and said, “ Ohh okay “! There hasn’t been a conversation with her since then that I’m not laughing my ass off at her.

This is such an old and banal point I don't know why people still bother making it. Karl wasn't in the show from the beginning, he was the producer. Also, Ricky Gervais is just a bigger name than Karl Pilkington.

[@DowzerWTP72]

I don't mean to ruin the dream (be it 9 months ago), but often when we wake up, the first few things we see are formulated into the memory of the dreams we just had. So it's totally possible (in fact probably more likely) that you seeing the clock triggered you to believe that you saw that time in your dream, even though you actually never dreamt it. Much the same as Déjà Vu. Read up on how Déjà Vu works, and it might help you understand what I'm saying.
