You did it for the Army because... june 14th is also his birthday birthday coincidentally so then this year you know you got the ufc fight and i call it his big boy birthday party because that's what it is it's like you know think about the little rich kid who gets everything you want throwing a temper tantrum because he wants his dad to have you know giraffes at his birthday party and so you better fly him in from across the globe because that's what i want that's what i want and and then watching it be ufc kind of gives me this vibe of being fucking like the kala sim during you know early rome performing in front of the emperor is is the vibes i get and it and it's super gross and then like you said watching this monstrosity I'm in D.C. all the time.
Like I went and looked at that when he was when they were midway through that project as well.
