-It's about to be the year 2020.
-
Feeling old, right?
-
-No. ["Auld Lang Syne" plays]
-
-[speaking indistinctly]
-
Do you know what a New Year's resolution is?
-
-Uh.
-
-It's when you make a promise to yourself
-
that you'll do better at something.
-
I told her that her New Year's resolution should be being nice.
-
She keeps putting her dolls in the slime,
-
and their hair gets stuck in it. -Is that true?
-
-And it gets all over the clothes.
-
-Alright, so maybe another resolution is not
-
to put slime everywhere.
-
Deal?
-
You know what a New Year's resolution is?
-
-Yeah. -Okay.
-
Do you have one for next year?
-
-Do my chores without being reminded.
-
-What are your chores?
-
-Emptying the trash and doing the dishes.
-
-I'm still not good at that.
-
What is gonna be your resolution?
-
-Sewing. -I want to get better
-
at soccer and better at basketball.
-
I want to run faster.
-
-You might be our most motivated 8-year-old
-
we've had on "Short Takes." -Thank you.
-
-Is there anything that you've been trying to get better at?
-
-Playing video games.
-
-Maybe you'll be nicer to your sister?
-
-Maybe.
-
-Seems like she's alright, though.
-
-[chuckles] Right now.
-
-I heard your brother only kind of likes you.
-
Is that true? -Yeah.
-
-Do you like your brother? -No.
-
-And... go.
-
Do you know what a New Year's resolution is?
-
-Yes. -For the year 2020,
-
what's your New Year's resolution?
-
-Raise my Fuggler. -What's a Fuggler?
-
-It's a stuffed animal. -A Fuggler?
-
-[laughing] With human teeth.
-
-Is that real? Okay.
-
A stuffed animal with human teeth.
-
A Fuggler. -It's not actual human teeth,
-
but it looks exactly like human teeth.
-
One of my friends got a Fuggler.
-
-[chuckling] A Fuggler.
-
-Me and my friend did surgery on it.
-
-On the Fuggler? -Yeah.
-
-And added to it?
-
Sorry. I don't want to ruin your story.
-
-We cut off the teeth. -You cut off the teeth?
-
-And then my friend got another Fuggler,
-
and then took the stuffing out of the first Fuggler
-
and cut its arms and legs off, and then put the new Fuggler
-
inside the skin of the old Fuggler,
-
and now it looks like a suit for the other Fuggler.
-
-This is your friend?
-
You didn't do this? -Uh.
-
-Is this one of those things where you say it's your friend,
-
but you're really the person who did this?
-
-My friend did it, and I wanted to do it,
-
but I was playing on scooters at recess.
-
-Okay, so you were more focused on recreational activity.
-
-You guys have a "Fungler"?
-
No, those teeth aren't human.
-
-I want to stop fighting.
-
-Stop fighting with your brother.
-
-And sister. -And si--
-
Oh, there's another one.
