[Bit 1]

I've been going to the gym a lot lately.

I've been trying to make my workouts pertain

to things I would do in real life.

So every time I do a squat,

I make sure to also lift my ball sack and cough.

[Bit 2]

I used to be really small.

That was when my dad was getting the best of me.

He said these beatings were preparing me for life.

You know, for all the other 40 year olds

who were gonna hit me with a belt and a shoe.

You know, the thing is though,

he actually didn't own a belt.

So we'd have to go to the clothing store

and he'd hit me with one there.

You know, it might sound bad, but I guarantee you,

every time he hit me with a belt,

he always did it in good will.
