  • [What's your New Year's Resolution?]

  • I guess I should work on being more patient with people.

  • Is that a good enough answer? Can I go now?

  • My resolution is to stop thinking so much, but how am I even going to quantify that?

  • How will I know if I'm succeeding?

  • Maybe I should pick something else. Uh...

  • I really should focus on tightening my budget and saving money this year, but I also want to go on a few trips, but they're small.

  • I think I can make it work.

  • Just Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, stuff like that.

  • I might also go back to school.

  • I might also take salsa lessons.

  • Not making salsa but salsa dancing.

  • But maybe I can learn how to make salsa too.

  • Can't be that hard right?

  • Well, I guess I need to think more and react less.

  • At least, that's what the judge told me.

  • That is a great question.

  • I've actually, I've got it here with me.

  • I've got it broken down into long-term goals, short-term goals, and then more existential ones.

  • I need to stop being so hard on myself and just be positive.

  • If I go on a date and it's really horrible, it's just a happy little accident.

  • Make a mistake at work that could cost me my job?

  • Happy little accident.

  • Feeling totally adrift in my life and without purpose?

  • Happy little accident.

  • Why do you want to know, huh?

  • You gonna keep tabs on me?

  • Wait for me to fail?

  • Get outta here.

  • I'm going to work on having more self-confidence.

  • Is that stupid? You can tell me if you think it's a stupid resolution.

  • I'm gonna be less hard on people.

  • Everyone gets a fresh start with me this year except for Timmy.

  • That little (bleep) knows what he did.

  • I need to stop taking all my time catering to other peoples' needs.

  • Oh, sorry, my phone just went off.

  • Uh. it's my grandma; just give me one second, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.

  • Grandma, can I call you right back?

  • Um, no, I don't remember what your Netflix password is.

  • Didn't you write it down?

  • Look, grandma, can't this wait a second?

  • Grandma, I'm in the middle of something,

  • Let me call you back.

  • I don't do New Year's Resolutions; I mean what's the point?

  • If you really cared about making a change in your life, you wouldn't wait until an arbitrary date on the calendar, now would you?

  • I need to stop saying yes to everything and just take it a little slower and just recharge my batteries a bit more this year.

  • But first there's the New Year's Eve Party, and that often turns into a New Year's Day party.

  • And then in a few weeks is the big MLK Day rager.

  • How could I miss that?

  • I'm going to be less competitive because apparently the way I play Monopoly is "threatening to tear this family apart."

  • Losers.

  • I'm gonna focus more on myself because I deserve it, but tell me about you.

  • I'm going on and on about myself, blah, blah, blah, me, me, me.

  • Tell me about you.

  • I can't tell you my resolution. What if I fail?

  • And then you become witness to my shame.

  • My resolution is to be more awesome.

  • I know what you're thinking: "He was so awesome last year, how is he gonna top it this year?".

  • But trust me I'll get it done.

  • Existential goals, whatever that means.

  • That little fudger knows what he did.

  • Can I get outta here now? Can I get this mic off?

  • Are we done?
