Hello. Amazing.
I feel like my career is not going to be complete until they get the Dilruk Jayasinha dancers, but I bloody dare them to start wobbling their head like that. Let's see how they get away with that.
(LAUGHTER)
How cool is this, folks? 2020 after that, look at this, we're back. What a genuinely huge win for all of us.
To be honest, though, I still managed to extract some wins from 2020, even though it was a tough one, because I'm good at recontextualising things.
Like, I think it's a genuine win for me that in 2020 I only pleasured myself three times a day, you know.
Like, don't judge. Look, listen, pleasuring yourself three times a day in any other year shows compulsive behaviour that a mental health professional should look into.
But in the context of 2020... "Oh, good restraint, champion!
(LAUGHTER)
You really held back there, well done.
Like, think about it. I'm a single man in a one-bedroom apartment for 112 days alone. I should have been dehydrated with Gatorade intravenously injected into one arm as the other one recovers from carpal tunnel syndrome.
Don't judge me. What else was I meant to do with all the toilet paper rolls, right?
