Transcript excerpt

My mom is one of the baddest motherfucker's on the planet. When I was about five years old, she told me that you have two choices in life, to have a good time or to have a bad time. Forty plus years later, she still practices what she preaches. When I tell you how insanely loud it was in her apartment when I was recording this video of her eating breakfast. Can't eat solid food anymore? I'll take all my favorites blended up, please. Might be difficult to eat? Well, I'll do so in private every time then. Might be difficult to talk? Well, then I'll have my meals off hours so I can enjoy others company. There's a king jackhammer five feet away from my head. I'll just put on some headphones and sit here and enjoy my meal. It's a lovely day outside. My family's here visiting and I'm still alive. Life is good.
