Yo, I'm telling you this... I became a comedian... Which is totally against the grain when you have a Filipino mom If you have a Filipino mom, that is not the career choice you're supposed to have... Filipino mom's Predetermine what their kids are supposed to be when they grow up... And you know I'm not making this shit up There's a lot of Filipino's in here, right now... That are nurses Today is a good day to get injured at a show Cause there will be a nurse in here like Oh my God, put a cold compress on da head Elebate the peet! Elebate! Elebate the peet. Elebate... What the fuck is elebate? Just lipt! Lipt the pucking peet! Are you stupid? And I'm not... Aye, look... I'm not even...

Who told you you were punny? It wasn't me... That's fucked up... I'm just saying... You're a nurse? God bless you But you know there's some nurses out there that didn't follow their dream...
