“you kids are probably saying to yourself, “now, i’m gonna go out, and i’m gonna get the world by the tail and wrap it around and put it in my pocket!” well, i’m here to tell you that you’re probably gonna find out, as you go out there, that you’re not gonna amount to jack squat!” you’re gonna end up eating a steady diet of government cheese and living in a van down by the river!” -matt foley
