0:51 versus maybe what some of our adult dreams are now I wanted to motorboat my second grade teacher [Applause] you still hot Mr Mr Larson no because she had like kind of low-cut shirts she was a young teacher she had nice boobs and she loved to give hugs she she loved to give hugs and I think my my biggest dream was to put my face in her boobs yeah do you still have the same dream as an adult now I don't know what she looks like you're probably hot well I saw her at a road trip that was really cool a road trip yeah wow like recently no no when I was uh when I was a kid me we were going to San Francisco and we were going on a road trip and then um I was we were like at a gas station

1:41 and when I was walking out I saw her her low-cut shirt again she was with her rocker looking boyfriend he looked like he was a part of the Red Hot Chili Peppers oh she knew what she was doing so stop looking at me why imagine that Hey Joe we're not at school anymore [Laughter] and she's all sorry Joey he's a little intense it's a ████ outrageous situation that was good oh my God I caught me off guard

2:31 that's so like ridiculous for that that is so 90s though yeah dudes would be acting like that no so motorboat James that's that's a good one did you ever get to fulfill those dreams not with your teacher but like a teacher yeah yeah or just I just remember feeling her boobs when we hugged and all the boys loved punks from her like oh my God this is really nice and you make eye contact with another kid and he's like and then I wanted to be a pirate that was a big dream of mine what kind of pirate what led that what led that because that's before like ████ parts of the Caribbean and ████ yeah before it was cool yeah it was Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland that was kind of cool oh no that right that was based on Captain no was it Captain Cook no the um

3:21 the book that where the kid stows away on the on the ship and then it and then the captain is the cook but he takes over the uh the the pirate boat it's a book here Treasure Island Treasure Island that's the book yeah yeah Hook was good though I love Peter Pan yeah that was my yeah I think that's what started it is Peter Pan look all that stuff the Pirates were the adults though so it's kind of like yeah still tough but that like yeah but just the pirate world all that stuff there was a lot of pirate stuff as a kid yeah and then I watched uh Miami Vice and I didn't really know what drug dealing was but I thought it was cool when they were chasing each other in boats and then shooting each other oh that's awesome yeah so I was like when I grow up I want to move to that area I knew like the Caribbean in Florida was kind kind of like one whole area and I wanted to get speed boats and have guns and like be a

4:14 pirate modern day now that was my dream till the fourth grade I think fourth or fifth yeah and I got in big ████ trouble because we were supposed to talk about your future careers and stuff yeah no so he's like I want to be on a boat with some guns and chasing people so we our our project I I think this was like third grade or something like that we make tissue so like in school you would you know we would draw like our tissue box with our future like what kind of whatever and then I made like a car with missiles in a ████ boat with a machine gun and all this stuff right and then when we got up it was my turn to talk about it and then I got in trouble for that and I was like you're gonna ████ tell me what my dreams is and I can't even have my own dreams ████ you yeah I just kind

5:04 of I didn't even know that is kind of sad though they tell you the homework's to do your dream and like no you can't do your dream they should have given you credit for being that creative at least it's pretty cool yeah or should have maybe educated you yeah that's crime you say that would be really great to be a director of a movie like that yeah yeah they should just correct you a little bit yeah just yeah redirection redirect I even got a journal right here with me with a picture of me in fourth grade and I did that I have a missile car I spelled ████ so wrong Pirates don't need to speed yeah but that that was what I really wanted to do that's why I thought that I was really gonna go into the military and all that stuff you could have been Navy SEAL probably I have ████ guns on boats yeah I literally do that every day yeah damn but I didn't go that way were you able to get any bit of that for

5:57 your future you think that's probably why probably it went to crime and gangs and stuff and joined the street gang yeah now you have like a paddle board and you got guns so you can tell I'm a Hawaii pirate you're about 20 there yeah it's close it's probably closer than you know if you would have just been a regular you know adult oh yeah I guess so you're kind of an irregular adult that's true regular what's your what's your dreams now dreams now yeah ████ man that's interesting because I I forgot to dream like that like well um I have an idea and I just worked toward it it's a different kind of mentality I don't think I have a um um so when you're a kid when you're a kid I realize like you're so limited I remember I can't wait to be an adult so I'm like you know when kids they just love playing and being in their

6:48 imaginary world right but I thought it was so cool to be an adult because you had freedom you could drive you could get a job you could do whatever the ████ you want and then like you don't have to go to school you can make money eat ice cream for dinner you could yeah like it's like all those choices I thought were so cool because then like people who own a business or they have a job or they could do something right and then I'm stuck at school studying about real life versus living real life yeah so I was like I can't wait till I get older and I can like have a girlfriend that's like hot and ████ and kiss her you know because you're not trying to kiss girls your age or like I know pedophile yeah if you never thought like that like I was like I don't want girls in my class they're too young I want a ████ college girl Joe was already an adult in like a third grade body so you want to make them a

7:38 pedophile I was jail-based no I remember fat I did like okay I had a girlfriend right like I had crushes in elementary school but then when you looked at a girl in college or like when you look at a Playboy or women in swimsuits right that was like the the top ████ like girls your age were like they're gonna be that one day but that's not who you want you want the Pamela Anderson at least for me yeah that's true you're not cutting out like the toddler section of JCPenney and then putting it all over your room I'm not getting teen magazine girls and putting them on my ████ wall and import tuna girls like sungh Healy and stuff my life sounds hot it's hot you're getting cut out to like 20 something year olds even though you're like 13 or

8:28 10. I didn't even know they had jean shorts that small yeah I thought it was underwear yeah yeah Jean underwear Jean lingerie hey you know though like there's something that's like on the the serious tip though that Joe said right now like when you become an adult like so many adults stop dreaming and I think that's a kind of a thing you know what I'm saying like as kids like you dream and obviously some dreams are totally deflated and things like I don't know motorboating your teacher maybe like maybe that's still an accomplishable dream it is accomplishable yeah um but the point is you know what I mean like um I just lower Bohannon now kid okay there it is and kids kids who dream right people who would dream and have those things like Ambitions and aspirations they end up doing something but a lot of adults when you like stop dreaming uh it I don't know it takes away something magical for what like your life's purpose is regardless of the things that you actually have to do it's not like

9:19 your career is your purpose but like maybe you're working to like earn stuff to like fulfill other purposes but like when adults stop dreaming that I feel like that's when the world stops yeah I said that's when you start tucking in your shirt yeah and they're ████ life I'm never gonna check on my shirt again my dreams are boring now so like so so like I dream about planting like an avocado tree that's not bored it's cool going fishing with my that is freedom that's not boring that's gay but it's normal you know what I mean like your dreams are crazy you're like or like even if like even in my early 20s right my dreams like oh you know what I can't wait till I ████ go to Egypt and then when no one's looking I'm gonna climb the pyramids so you're

10:10 still I'm gonna go be a ████ world-class art Thief right you have these crazy dreams and then like at this point my dream is like oh I can't wait to like ████ go spear fishing it's achievable you could do that next week it's not we might need to hear a couple of the other guys in the room's dreams because yours are interesting I love I love them I support you I I'm gonna piggyback because I think later in my life I'm like dude when I get older I think my second chapter of my dream that I'm gonna start achieving is like I'm gonna get into woodworking bro I'm gonna build a ████ table I might build a boat that's honestly tired like in my head I'm like I can't wait to start doing that type of ████ I'm just not there yet that's like second half once he finishes ████ playing his avocado tree you could chop that ████ down and use the wood yeah maybe you can make a bowl and make guacamole with yeah right like like chopped on my avocado tree I just got it but that's how he makes a bowl and has the guac

11:12 my dreams ████ work with this ████ good old lamp dude what other dreams you got you know childhood when I was a kid I remember I was in the second grade I wanted to be an FBI agent but I just remember thinking like that was a fantastic did you watch a movie or something and you thought probably I used to watch all kinds of ████ but I always liked the you know when they ████ flash their backs and they're wearing jeans that's living that's what I would think no but I remember as a kid I would always be very like oh I want to do that and then I don't know what happened to that dream I think my dream died bro you grew up dude or you became one and you just can't tell us yeah I'm a ████ narc dude I was like I'm not gonna be no snitch dude are you good at investigating did you like Carmen San Diego I felt like in my mind I I I was

12:02 fascinated by that kind of stuff like investigating you know but it's not something that I think I just died out really quick I was like I'm I think at one point in my life actually I was like I'm no smart enough to be an FBI you know who I think is the first person to ruin their dreams so your parents yeah I think so what do they say that's true you ain't never gonna be that and then your dad goes back to making ████ horseshoe noises on the on his own he's like he's taking the Coconuts like a Monty Python you'll never be that get a real job on FBI agent you shut up take three Jumanji shut up I don't think they it was them honestly yeah like I feel like they were pretty

12:53 discouraging no no maybe not there I think it was me I think it was me you put yourself down yeah for sure I think that's the Asian way a lot of ways I think responsibility is like a dream killer um yeah like what when you got to make money yeah taxi yeah right like they're actually physically limited to do ████ like you said like now you can go spear fishing but someone who has no money spear fishing's still way out here money maybe spearfishing is their way yeah it does go away it does the pendulum swing it does I remember what it was growing up I would associate like being um like an authority figure like that with like not being cool or like not being like a lack of Personality or like yeah yeah yeah Square so I was like oh I don't want to be like that kind of guy like I don't want to be a ████ you want to be a hall monitor yeah like she like closet dreamed it kind of yeah I just was like yeah whatever I was like like I just didn't think my personality

13:44 would match that like I'm not that kind of guy you know so I think you told me Square dude ████ you dude I'm ████ round bruh no I'm not I'm not that square ████ around I'm pretty Square I'm pretty Square I'm pretty straight it's okay he's an FBI do you wear women's shoes you're hella cool dude these are men's shoes I think hey you match your socks to your shoes that's really good on you oh thanks man this wasn't uh this wasn't on purpose I don't know into his pants lucky that means a lot to me I can't be rocking like Adidas sausage I can't do that yeah I can't do that you don't so maybe it's a quinky dink dude I have a stigma from from getting made fun of in high school for doing that so yeah you can't do it now really I just grew up playing basketball you never did that yeah can't do it yeah you get dunked being too matchy-matchy you know there is one childhood dream it's not my main one but I realize that it's connected to an adult dream that I

14:34 probably still have in some way shape or form that I hope I'm man enough to accomplish one day um it's probably why I love things like Robinson Crusoe or like the TV show alone random stuff like that because I remember as a kid I always wanted like a sick ass tree house that I could just escape to Oh and it was just you know you see that ████ in like The Simpsons right and it's just something that you wanted especially when you wanted to not be at home with your parents or something like that that was a big one yeah you just wanted your own space I just wanted my own space but maybe also being thrown into the Boy Scouts and stuff like that like there was always this thought that I I could like survive yeah you know what I mean so when you hear about those like Robinson cruso's or Tarzan stories like I was always infatuated with that because it was like a person that was put into the wild and could like ████ take it and then I watched shows like alone now right where it's like that's the competition where they gotta ████ be out there and survive you think you can do it I wish I could obviously I'm not that

15:24 good but like I there's a part of me that even in my adult now still like there's something about that's cool to me yeah I didn't know you were like a ████ Wilderness dude that's the thing I in my adult years I have even done that because you make me think of glamping but he was a boy scout he's an eagle scout but that's oh I know that but then the Anthony that I know today he doesn't go into the neighborhood today I haven't in a long time and that's true I I understand that but definitely when I was growing up as a scout when we were in competitions with like the white troops and stuff like that at Camp reviews I would oh we would always be the Vietnamese scholarship because I was in a predominantly Vietnamese group um we would always be like ████ getting punished and very militant troop and doing push-ups and stuff when we like left our shoes out or something and then all the ████ fat white kids had like car batteries and their tents

16:14 playing TV Mario Kart and ████ like that you know what I mean or like just cooking like these Anthony dug a hole like Viet Cong style in a certain way booby trapped everything and maybe that gave me a confidence like I could participate so you did some of it okay I did do some I'm confident I could definitely laugh and do some stuff yeah I don't know bro do you watch those he was in Boy Scouts bro I went to Waldorf what does that mean so I don't know if Astoria no that's a hotel it's a school because I'll tell you that I Was A Boy Scouts too I wasn't an eagle scout but my troop camped once a month at the minimum yeah from when I was 10 to when I was like 16. yeah that's so cool so I mean if he's an eagle State okay okay okay okay okay so most schools for their eighth grade trip or some go to a museum or Six Flags or something we did seven days on the

17:05 Eel River up north in Oregon with two leaders my teacher in 20 12 year olds that's it no cell phone no nature you didn't see it or only no nature only only buildings no you didn't you didn't see a single human besides our class and two people what was that you guys are all tents or capitals neither we're on the nothing so what you sleep in the sleeping bag you you had a sleeping bag and we had tarps that you would lay out it rained you're getting rained on that's pretty cool yeah crazy ████ you have bear spray you're really cool I just don't want you to ████ on my coolness no you're ████ cool and I wanted to relate these ████ were dead and you and I are women alone we're winning alone because you try to ████ on them no what I'm trying to say is that whack-ass trip you had he did that every summer for at

17:55 least six years different eight days straight maybe it was nine or ten I don't know dude it was a long time I'm gonna ask you is that a GB yours cause I be doing that ████ and I feel like we should all go into the forest as the careful boys and survive that'll be a vlog I actually think the careful boys doing for real a nature adventure and like sleeping out there anywhere would be sick I've never do the Wilderness survival merit badge yes that's one of my favorite merit badges so this merit badge that two guys I don't know this one's my favorite bag my school we didn't need a badge bro we live this ████ for one trip dude no every year we didn't take regular trips all right go ahead you ████ Boy Scout I'll give your ass a wedgie and kill you with my handmade tomahawks that's so cool because as kids you never

18:46 really get a chance to like really test your skills right like let's say let's say you try to go in the backyard or mom's like get the ████ back in what are you doing back there right so for the Wilderness survival America best correct me if I'm wrong but it's I think it's like two or three days and you gotta build you you gotta build your own shelter so you find branches you fill in the the holes like pine needles and all stuff so you have to make a place to live and then uh you you have to actually sleep in there for a couple of nights or days and then uh I forgot what else you have to do but it's like the closest thing that you can in a safe environment to still be like in nature yeah and you're like oh ████ this is dope like I'm really on my own and you're like ████ like 14 or 15 years old and you think in your head that you're really on your own but really like the area and coordinates they gave you is like right next to the parking lot where they have binoculars and they can totally see you the whole time so that's it that's the thing with the Eel River trip we're in the middle of

19:37 nowhere we probably traveled like she's getting mad no there's no ████ badges it didn't happen man we just got points like ████ Hogwarts I got a new dream now I want to go careful boy camping okay honestly that sounds so fun let's do it all boys or what yeah dude what a loser dude you have to divorce before we go how about that sign the papers [Music] oh
