I have new developments
in my personality.
Know this.
I'm a full grown adult man now.
I don't play games,
I don't deal with bullshit,
and I do not b*at around the bush.
Okay, well, how about
b*ating around this bush
- with that uncircumcised d*ck?
- No, I gotta cut you off.
This is serious.
I thought a lot about those
things that you said to me.
Well, for the record,
I wish I hadn't said them,
'cause I feel like a f*cking fool.
Well, you shouldn't.
Through journaling and candles,
I realized I'm nothing
like Dr. Warren Carmichael.
Every single thing that he did,
I would have done differently.
If you gave me a Jeep Grand Cherokee,
I'd never let my wife drive it.
If you J.O.'ed me in my office,
I wouldn't ruin the vibe
by talking about my son
or his birthday,
and I would not cry when I sh*t.
- Really, BJ?
- Yeah.
You say you don't know
anything about relationships?
Let me teach you.
