I just feel like if a lot of hey

there's a half-human,

half-butterfly creature that when you lose

part of your skeletal system is gonna give you money,

and incentivize this totally natural process,

which is losing part of your exoskeleton.

(drum music)

If you're an elderly woman, I think it's underrated.

I think elderly women should wink at people all they want

'cause it's adorable.

(drum music)

I heard he's really good at Donkey Kong.

That's what I know about Eminem.

Like really good, like king of Kong good at Donkey Kong.

(drum music)

I sort of imbue children with characteristics

that they probably don't have, and super powers.

Like some phenomenal psychic, moral compass.

Like I see a baby and they look at me,

and I think that they know that I'm full of shit,

and so I feel a complicated thing with babies.

I love them and I think they're wonderful.

I'm gonna say underrated.

'Cause if I say over, like a baby is overrated,

asshole.

(drum music)

My association with Frasier is one of like a mild depression

so I'm gonna say to me, slightly overrated.

'Cause I admit I had to like, go to bed

and go to school the next day.

(drum music)

Underrated.

Although I can't really afford it.

(drum music)

Overrated if you're sleeping on a couch

and there's like a ferret running around.

Also, do they use a litter box?

Like what is the vibe?

(drum music)

Oh, that's the pina colada song,

but it turns out like he's placed a personal ad

and his wife answers it.

Right?

Isn't that he premise of that?

♫ If you like pina coladas

♫ If you like

Walks in the rain?

It's like a very Nora Ephron kind of premise.

I like it.

Yeah.

I'm gonna say underrated.

(drum music)

Underrated.

You always gotta keep it real.
