The legendary Larry David presented the Outstanding Comedy Series Award at the Emmys on Sunday night and proved there was absolutely no better person to present that category. The Curb Your Enthusiasm creator broke down the three skills required to present:

1) "You gotta be able to open an envelope"

2) "Read a few words"

3) "And most importantly, act like you're interested." 

He then compared the "acting like you're interested" part to going on dates (which he claims to go on a lot of—is this true, can someone confirm). And while it was SUPER relatable up until that point, David threw out a few examples of feigned interest questions he likes to pose his dates: "Tell me more about your niece..." "You say she enjoys top dancing? Oh that's fascinating, you must send me a video." "How's your cookie business? Is it true there's a shortage of chips? A chip crisis! Oh you poor thing." And, lastly, "When do you suppose we'll have sex?" (Okay, so maybe semi-relatable?) 

Watch the full monologue above.
