[Bit 1]

So I just got married recently, right?

And my wife, she's dubbed it a modern traditional relationship, right?

And that means she's got the job, but I still had to buy the engagement ring, right?

And, you know, I'm worried about it, right?

right, you know, 'cause I don't wanna get divorced,

and I'm talking to one of my real ginzo,

you know, Italian friends, right?

And he was like-- - Hilarious.

- He was like, yo dude, how, how are you possibly

gonna stay with her forever, right?

And I was like, I'm not, you know,

like statistically speaking, there's absolutely no way

that I'm gonna make it to the end of this thing, right?

And, um, (sighs)

- You're interested in stocks.

- Wait, you're gay enough.

- All right, all right, all right.

You're gonna understand.

But no, right, so I'm in this modern, traditional relationship with her.

And I was, you know, she's so modern, right, and I'm so traditional.

She's so modern that she paid for this trip, right.

And I'm traditional, so if she didn't pay for it, I would have hit her, you know.
