[Bit 1]

I know what a lot of you guys were thinking.
You know, you heard about it at the end of my name.
You're like, "He's Italian," and you're right, unfortunately.
And I know a lot of people know stereotypes about Italians.
- What's an Italian? - Something like that.
that. They always do something like that. And I was talking to a fellow the other day,
and he started doing Italian stereotypes. He started telling me, I was like, "Oh, what
else do you know about Italians? Teach me about Italians." He was, man. He goes, "Well,
the first thing I know about Italians is they get really upset about things." And I started
yelling at him. I got fucking pissed. I was like, "Hey, dude, you can't. We don't get
upset about things. We get very passionate about things, okay? So cool your jets, dude.
What else do you know about Italians? What the fuck else do you know about Italians?"
And he goes, "Oh, the only thing I know about Italians
is that they're all really good cooks."
And I felt like a jackass for inviting this guy
to my dinner party. I swear to God.
I was cooking for a racist. This is terrible.
And this is the real kicker.
He had to bend over about a foot,
'cause I'm only 5'6", and he goes,
"The other thing I know about you little Italian bastards
is you're all criminals.
And I swear to God I would've cooked this guy's ass
if I wasn't a felon."
