It’s supposed to be a light joke, but there are so many layers to that line. And when you connect it with other things, like her voicemail in The Craving saying she still didn’t fully know him—even after more than a decade together, living together, it really makes you think. Sometimes it doesn’t feel like they have that kind of deep connection, you know? Or that level of intimacy where you can fully open up to the other person because you feel safe saying anything. It almost feels like there’s some kind of barrier there.

Like, imagine telling your partner that your relationship would be better if they spoke a different language… even in a harmless joke, it kind of shows they don’t have that “you understand me like no one else does” type of connection

i immediately knew what interview you meant so i had to find it real quick. (tyler reads off the joke at 11:00)

honestly, this bit has always stuck with me, because even if it was just a "harmless joke" like, tyler's entire career, most of his life, is built off his (incredible) skill with words, as a writer and lyricist and even interviewee (see that clip where he's talking about guns for hands, that "i know you have the ability to hurt yourself" bit, god. hits me every time) so like, no matter the context, it comes off almost,,,, callous, to say that, the relationship would be better if she couldn't interface with this massive part of who he is
