0:00 I'm tired of playing Chinese roles. Come on, dog. You want What you mean? You don't want, dude. The last kid. What are you going to play? I'm tired of this Chinese Korean mother. Now I'm going to join the army. [Music] Welcome back everybody to another episode of the Careful Boys where we got Subie here. Subie. Hold on. Subie. There's one way to welcome Sub back. It's like this. My captain. My captain. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. We got Private Suben Choy Boy. Is that what they call you? Private Suben Choy Boy. Nope. What do they call you? They say my full name and last name. Isn't that your full name and last name?
0:50 Oh, yeah. Yeah. They say my name. Super. Super Joy. Uh, full name Super Joy. So, so you enlisted. You went to the National Guard. Yes, I did. Wow. How'd it feel? Uh, dude, it was crazy though. I'm not even going to lie, dude. What What made you want to make that decision? Cuz it's such a a big decision. Um, dude, honestly, I would love to uh I really want to serve my country some way or somehow. You know what I'm saying? I know it's not I know it's not like brother I know it's not like active or or anything like that. It's just National Guard. People are like no other branches will tease National Guard but at the same time for me it's just like how can I serve and still be with my family? Which which other branch national guard
1:41 the Red Cross makes fun of them a lot? They're justing around though. All the teasing with like air like chair force whatever Coast Guard. Everyone's just around. This guy eats crayons. Yeah. They're just ████ around. Exactly. But also depends what your MOS is, what your school, what your class, you know, but at least um what I really wanted to do is just serve my country some other way somehow. But also, uh the benefits do matter when you think about those things. Yeah, it's huge. Yeah. I feel like any other country like just serve for your country, that's all you're going to get. But this one at least it gives you an opportunity to have good health care and opportunity for you to use their benefits for your, you know, like how VA loans. Yeah, VA loans, man. GI Bill, but I can hook it up for my kid. So, I don't have to use it on me. I could use it on my if I use it on myself, it would just be for more
2:32 schooling to get a certain rank, blah, blah, blah. But I would love to save it. So, if my kid wants to go to a good school, I would just give it to him. Wow, that's so nice. Really cool. Yeah, but obviously when you have a kid, you have to think that far because those that time is going to come up. So you would you would you say it was having the kid that kind of like planted that seed in your brain that was like, "Oh, ████ I'm going to take this leap." Yes. Because um same time I'm like looking at my future now. It's like I know I'm hustling and I'm not doubting my hustle. It's just how can I guarantee my hustle? Security. Yeah. Cuz stunts is good money, but then it's not always there. There's a lot of politics in stunts, too. And I'm just tired of playing politics. I'm tired of playing Chinese roles. Come on, dog. You want to What you mean?
3:24 You don't want Dude, the last kid, man. What are you going to play? I'm tired of this Chinese ████ Korean ████ Now I'm going to join the army. No, it's not even that. It's just like realistically you got to be that 1enter to be top dog in the industry. Or else you're just a Chinese goon. You're not going to be the Arnold, dude. But the thing is, you can be that 1enter. Yeah. But you still got to wait a lot. You know what I'm saying? You wait for Arnold Chan to stop. Once he stops, then you can get in. No matter what. Hey, listen. No matter what. I actually worked with him. I know. That's why he lives in Vegas now. He's the man. No matter what people say, the Hollywood still will racial profile. That's true. I mean, they're just making movies. They're just making movies. They're just making movies. Like, hey, I need 6 ft dudes here. I can't do nothing about that.
4:14 Yeah, that's racial. It's not even racial. Hey, I need Chinese triads. At that point, it's okay because you're just like, I'm Asian. I look triady. I'm I'm that way. Try. I need North Koreans. I'm I'm there. Yeah. You know what I mean? But at the same time, that ████ it's just too much games to play with and I don't have that extra discipline to be that 1%. I don't have that time to be that one uh the 1% unless you're in it long time. Isn't it the same though as like the white guy who does stunts and he's like, "Man, I don't want to try. These guys get hooked up." Yeah. But more you you actually I personally think you got way more work cuz you have the western way more competition. There's way more white guys that are competing against each other. That's true. World War II. Yeah, there's more. Iraq. Korea war.
5:04 Korean War is only They could be in a vampire movie. Take a Fall, but still a lot of whites in there, too. They could be a body double. There's Yeah, there's way more white leads that need stunt doubles. Yeah. Killing a bunch of triads on screen. Sometimes they ain't even for hard stuff. Yeah. Yeah. They just got to get p like ████ slap or something. Yeah. Or kick them all. Hey, could you just walk around in the back somewhere? You know what I mean? But yeah, like Game of Thrones. Dude, there's probably like 10,000 white guys on set in one project. I can't think of one Asian project that needs 10,000 Asian people. Uh, the Gang is K. Marco Polo. Hey, brother Son. We a hell of Chinese dudes. The Marco Polo. Marco Polo. Like eight seasons of it though, you know? Like that creates so much work. But think about it, like Harry Potter, one Asian ████ Yeah. Cho Chang. Who's that girl, right? M and then you can't go to Asia to do the film because it's even worse for a stunt
5:54 person out there. Damn, they just gave you like bread for the day. Yeah, they don't give a damn. Good job. Bread. Bread for you. Go home. Eat. ████ You go to Asia, they speak English to you. Go home. Or you go to Asia, you look too American. Yeah. Oh, true. They're like, you have too many masks out or you can't hear the emergency commands. Yeah. You can't understand them. Or they're like, Thomas, hold on. You're going to be like, "What the ████ dude? I told you get out the way." And you're like, "Man, what the f███?" But anyway, so I was just like, "Yo, I'm done. I'm done hoping." And then I don't have time to be ████ grinding like that. I think you made a good choice. I just made I need That could always just be in the back end, too. You know what I mean? National Guard, you do your thing and you come right back. And then whatever you're stationed at, you're going to be in GL. I'm going to be out in whatever I'm stationed at. Are you
6:45 Are you excited though to be in some action? What? In some action? Yeah. Don't Aren't you a little bit hyped about that? What What a time to join is what I said. How How old are you? How old are you right now? 30. You're 30? Yeah. No ████ way. So young, bro. How How old do you thought I was, man? I don't know. Like 25 or something. But but 30 is so that that's that's a huge question cuz like um like when I think back to like boot camp and stuff like that or people that even join like cuz like boot camp is way different than any police academy. Well, yeah, you should go home, right? Police academy, you go home. When you join the military, you go to boot camp, there is no home. There is no time. There's nothing, no freedom for 2, 3 months or whatever, right? Yeah. And then so like when I think back, if someone asked me to do boot camp now, I would say ████
7:35 no. Yes. I enjoy life way so much now. Like it's like it's hard to do boot camp when you're like when you're 40 years old. Like Oh, for sure. You have your own routine, your likes, your dislikes, all that stuff, right? like what and then 30 is I think it's easier when you're 18 or 17 to join boot camp because you don't even know who the ████ you are. So it's easy to go through like a hell week type thing then to have a full identity and then now you're like you you flip it cuz your life is about to get flipped upside down like what made you be down with that? Uh you know I just saw something like someone say like uh you have to be willing to sacrifice stuff or your comfort to make you know to even have better things down the line. So I told myself like, well, the thing is my buddy joined at 35. One of my buddies joined at 35 Army Reserve. How he already finished boot camp? He's done. He's back already, you know.
8:26 How did he like it? It was funny cuz he he's name is Josh, right? He's from Step Boys. And he said he loved every bit of it. He just loves people screaming at him. He said he's a little psycho, man. He's a little weird. He's a little weirdo, but he's tight though. Yeah. But if if he did it, I was just like, bet. What's the age cut off? I didn't know you could be Duke camp 62. He's a medic. No. Yeah. Combat medic age 35. But if you're if you're older, they said you need to be useful. Like you you got to be scoring high. They have waivers. Yeah. They have army like a 50 like ████ Olympian. They'll they'll still sign you. What? No way. So you'll be around a bunch of 19year-olds. Yeah. 18 17. I'll be around a bunch of 18y olds and dudes that have no idea what the ████ they want to do. But that's why I said, you know, for me, I was like kind of I'm glad I actually had this conversation. A lot of people go in cuz they don't know
9:16 what the ████ they're doing. So, they just get out and that's it. They don't know how to utilize what they have unless it's time to go GI Bill. But then they don't know what the ████ they're doing in army. They're just going to get that GI bill and they're going to go to school and they still don't know what the ████ they're going to be doing until something clicks. But at least I know what I want to do. Yeah. Strategic going in. You know what I mean? So at least like for me it's just the credentials in the background. So to use it during like if I want to do security or some type of like police work, I can at least use that. Or even if you go back in stunts, you have like the real life practice. Yeah. So consulting and all that stuff. Yeah. And stuff like that. So for me it's useful. That's why I was like I want to go into this. But people say like you should have gone into something better like combat engine I mean combat engineering which is blowing up stuff, building stuff which is fair but I didn't score high enough boys. Hey what was the uh ASVAB needed for one of
10:06 those? Did you take the ASVAB still? I take the No, I took everything. ASVAB, blood work, dental, hearing, eye vision. Huh? You just weren't smart. I messed up, dude. My my my recruiter told me, "Yo, study the book now." So, by the time your tattoos get approved, you're good to go. But I was just like, "My tattoos is not going to get approved." So, I already You thought you were going to fail already? I like to be negative all the time. That's probably why it's good that you're not a combat technician. Yeah, but Well, no. Here's the thing. I just grew up with so much bad things happening all the time. That's just how I would like You want to get your hopes up. I don't like to have my hopes up in general. I feel that. I was just like, I'm not going to study this ████ because I'm It's going to They're going to say no cuz look at this. Yeah. So, I was just sitting. What's the point of study? Neck tattoos. They're allowing it now. Well, that's the thing. They're desperate now, huh? No, they're not. We have way more than we need. They
10:58 said, "Well, maybe they just say that." No. Ever since the Supreme Leader took office, the recruiting numbers are actually high historically the highest it's ever been in history. No way. Wow. How the heck that happened? But remember like it's like once again I was just chilling and then one day my I get a call. He's like, "Good news. You passed. You going you ready for your ASVAB?" And I was like, "Yeah, I'm ready for my AVAB." And I said, "I'll study for it just in case." I studied the day before. Yeah. What's your score on it? Is it out of 100 still? It's out of 100. What' you score? I only scored enough to be uh infantry, which was 35. You scored 35. 35. And that's passing grade. I was like, that got a F+, dude. Worst Asian. I know, dude. Yeah. Said the day before. But look, but look, but to be honest,
11:48 can I be honest with you? He's judging you right now, bro. Hey, let's all take the ass. Let's see where we go. Can I be honest with you? I never met an Asian that scored 35. Can I be honest with you? Yeah, I wanted to be in infantry though. Yeah, but most people score like 80 and then they choose infantry. Yeah, but most people are locked it in. Dude, I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of you. Good ████ bro. Good ████ dog. What did you study last minute? I'm I'm proud of you, too. 35. 35 is like, you know, back in our day when you took the SAT, if you write your name down, you get 400. That's that. 35 is the 400 of the Yeah. No, no, no. I swear I I swear to God. Show up score, dude. Uh, dude, my even my recruiter was like, "Yo, what happened?" And I just said, "Yo, what? I thought you were Asian." Yeah. Korean, bro. I straight up told him, "Yo, I don't know what the ████ happened." He's like, "Did you study at all?" And I
12:38 told him, "To be honest, did you even use the right mouse? You're just clicking the wrong keyboard, bro. The only people I've ever met that score 35." Bart's judging. The people that like grew up in Ohio and their sister is her mom or whatever. It's like, "No, man. I'm not that bad. Your sister don't get him harder, bro. I'm not that bad, dude. Some girls score two. What? You don't even You can't even have a job at two. No, that's why you get resent to GED school for the mil from the military. She scored two. Scored two and she came straight out of high school. Oh, that's impossible. So, you're comparing yourself to the worst person. Yes, I am. You get a two though. Three. 35 is way better than two. But listen, I'm not I'm not 17. Regardless, if I did score high, I would have chose infantry. I'm proud of you. I'm proud of the job. You get You got the job you want. You
13:28 got the job. Keep on talking about different analogies of like what scoring 35. No. I'm going to tell you I'm going to tell you how it went down. I'm going to tell you how it went down. I'm going to tell you how MEPS went down and everything. It went down. Honestly, like this is how it went down. Explain what MEPS even stands for. That's why you score 35. What's that? So, so everyone who knows maps knows maps. I'm not going to explain that now. But people don't know what maps. I don't know. They don't know maps, bro. He goes, "Everyone who knows knows." You know, you know, military evaluation. Military entrance processing station. There you go. It was close. He's evaluation. You see that? That's why I'm in between though. But look, look what happened is what happened is I go there, right? Joe, you having a good time, man? I
14:20 So think think of like a giant hospital/corporate building type place. Hella people go there. There's like a waiting room and this whole like classes you test your hearing test see if you're flatfooted. Like it's like a um just like how you see in the movies they go step by step to see if like this organism is fit to be in like a military scenario. It was like a It was just like So, dude, I'm sitting next to like, you know, when you're outside and then you have bunch of ████ lines. I'm like sitting there like the ████ am I doing here? Like, am I even doing what I'm supposed to be doing? Cuz I look around, it's all young ass kids. Yeah. Everyone's like 17, 18. Damn. Maybe one 40y old in the back. You know what I mean? But you're You do look like 20. Yeah, you fit in though. You don't look like You don't look like the old guy in the group. That that would be
15:10 embarrassing. Thank you. I appreciate that. What blew my mind is that's why Bart thought you were 25. Yeah, I did think you were. Thanks, man. I appreciate that. What blew my mind was uh a kid next to me. Two fresh tattoos. Two fresh tattoos. Idiot. That guy scored 35, too. No, I looked at him and I and I looked at him and I said, "Yo, what are you trying to be?" He said, "Oh, trying to be the Marines." But I got They said, "No, cuz my tattoos." And I looked at him. He's an idiot. When'd you get your tattoos? He's like, "When I want to be in the Marines." I was like, Holy cow, you're dumb as ████ So, what are you going to do now? He's like, oh, maybe the Air Force or the Navy might take me. I was like, all right, well, you have options. There's literally idiots like that where you go, come and join the Marines, and then they tell you or wherever you want to join, right? The recruiter give you a whole list of what to do, what not to do. Don't get a DUI. Don't ████ commit any felonies. Don't get any new tattoos. Oh, you're perfect. You have
16:00 zero tattoos. Perfect. You don't have to do that whole processing thing. They're like, cool. Literally, tomorrow they go get a tattoo. Bro, idiots. I was just looking at this kid like the ████ Come on, man. They don't want tattoos on any new recruits for Marines are very strict with tattoos. Well, it's like um it's just one extra step. So, it's like imagine you try to close like a ████ home loan, right? It's like you want to go through escrow as fast as you can so it's smooth. So, there's like military escrow, too. So, if you have tattoos, you have to go through a extra back. They inspect your tattoos. Is this racial? Is this guy's a white supremacist? They got to take pictures of all your tattoos. So, it's just way easier. You're like, "Oh, cool. You got a perfect credit score. Don't go buying a car before your home loan closes, right?" And they're like, "Okay." And they go buy ████ two cars or whatever. It's like that. It's like, "Dude, how'd your credit score get
16:51 bumped down? Oh, I got so motivated. I got these two ████ tattoos." Oh, now you can't be whatever, dude. It's ████ And it says Marines. Idiot. Idiot. Yeah. But like, dude, it was crazy. And some kid next to me, I'm just like sitting down next to him and I just go like, "Yo, what like what did you score?" He said, "I scored a 90." And I was like, "Wow, good good ████ Where are you at?" He's like, "I'm I'm joining Marines." And I looked at him like, "Did you look at other options just in case, you know, cuz you might get way better u jobs and opportunity." He's like, "Oh, I didn't look at anything other because the only guy who came up to me was a marine." And I was just like, "Bro, you know, there's ████ Army, there's the Navy, there's the Air Force. with that score, you could ████ be doing way better jobs. He's like, really? You could be like Intel working for the CIA or some ████ He's got a 90. He that dumb, bro. He got a 90, but this 35 is giving unsolicited advice.
17:41 No, because I'm aware of those things. It's not even about being smart. It's just being aware at that part. You look at that kid and you I told I straight up told that kid, "Hey, just before you sign that contract, just look around and just see what your other options are just in case." And then ever since then he was like looking at the army, the air force, what you could do with that number. So you take the test first and then you join the branch. No, no, no. You take the test for that branch. You know what I'm saying? But with that with that test, you could go any other branch. It's the same thing. It's meant for everybody. Yeah. So what you'll do, like let's say you go to a recruiting office and you want to join, let's say the Coast Guard or something. You pick a job. You talk to the recruiter, whatever, and everything is kind of like at this like tentative state. They're like, "Okay, cool. this is the package that you want. Kind of like when you buy a house or a car, this is the car you want. Blah blah blah. Then you do the credit check. So
18:32 then you go take the ASVAB to see if you qualify for the job that you wanted. And then if it you qualify, boom, go you go right ahead. But if not, you have to go and re-evaluate. ████ I couldn't get this job. Do I now join another branch or do I stay the same branch, choose another job? Yeah, that's what it is. But then it was it was the whole MET process was crazy and everyone was strict. Everyone was taking the test. And dude, I had like the craziest experience cuz I was taking a test and then next thing you know, I just pop out my Zins. I'm just like, "All right, get a little boost." Is that considered drugs or no? Nicotine. No, to them though. Oh, no. To then was crazy. I I popped it in and I'm just like taking the test and some dude stops my like his hand comes over my shoulder and it stops me and I'm just like, "Oh, what the f███?" He goes like falling out with that tone and I'm just like oh ████ I'm in trouble. You didn't say forgive me father for I
19:23 have sinned. That's I'm We'll keep that or that's the start of the movie. We're like oh this guy's a rule breaker. We're setting up a new team of Yeah. You're part of the Suicide Squad. Yeah. MIB. Yeah. Until until he looks at my score. Until he looks at my score and goes, "Ah, never mind." No. They look at his score. He's like, "Oh, this guy's expendable. We're setting up a new TV expendable. Dude, this this dude freaking this dude freaking goes looks at me and goes, "Are you chewing?" And I'm like, "No, sir. I'm actually uh doing that." Clicked in my mind. And he said, my recruiter said, "Do not argue with anybody at MEPS." And I was just like, that's good advice. I kind of ignored it. And I was just like, "No, sir. It's just sins." And he's like, "What is that?" And I was just like, "It's just pure nicotine. There's no tobacco in
20:14 it." Because chewing is tobacco. Yeah. I spit out the tobacco. But this is just nicotine. He looks at me. But I was like, "But I'll throw it away." He was like, "Throw it away. None of that ████ out here. Finish your test." And I was just like, "Yes, sir." And I had to continue my test after that. Damn. That's at 35 brain, not 34. Then I forgot. I remember there's cameras everywhere and ████ You know what I'm saying? So I was just like, "Wow, they're really on top of it, you know, the whole time and everything." And then after trying to do their job. Exactly. Then the the the whole time I'm getting my physical test, but the funniest one was when we had to go take our pee test. Unless someone look at the pee inside. Yeah, you got to go pee inside. So the dude's just watching dick all day. No, no, no, no, no. That's the thing. That's normal, though. You know, in the military, everyone's going to see each other's dick. A thousand dicks. No, but he's just standing there inspecting and going like, "Make sure that dick goes in." Everywhere you do a drug test, they That's a normal thing, you know. But then like the funniest day, the funniest
21:04 one was me just five of us have to line up. We all have to pee next to each other. And keep in mind these all 18year-olds and they're young ass too. So it's very immature, right? So the guy they never seen a 30-y old dick before, right? The the the whole age dick. The whole time I'm trying to I'm trying to break the ice because everyone is nervous and scared. So no one's peeing. So I was like, "Dude, faster we get the stone, faster we get out." So you know, the guy goes like he's just staring at everyone. It is nervous. He has to It's nerve-wracking, but I'm just I just yell out, "You about to see the smallest one. die, dude. Hell yeah. And it's funny because the the the the the guy who's supposed to be watching serious. Yeah. Then you just see him go.
21:55 Hell yeah, dude. That's the best part. Yeah. He's like, I'm like this and I'm just peeing cuz I see a peripheral vision him just like holding his laugh and I look at him. And he he was like he turns around like guys focus. And I'm just like And I'm just like, "My apologies, sir." And then we all just trying to pee and everyone goes, "Oh, I can't." And I and I just go like, "Sir, I need a fart." Sir, we're grown men. Let it out. I said, "Bet." I bet. He He probably He probably thought it was going to be one of those, right? But my ████ goes and then everyone goes everyone's pee just goes
22:46 ████ water pump like like he's a pee player and then one kid in the corner one kid in the corner I can't pee anymore he started crying he lost it he started crying or laughing he started laughing and I'm just like confident He goes like, no one finishes on time. Everyone's piss is just like, ah, it's missing. Ah. And I'm just like, I got it, sir. It's on my hand. He's like, just just finish. And I'm just like, yes, sir. You know what I mean? And I'm just like over here. And everyone's dying because you can't even go like zip zip. H. He said, "Drop your pants down to your knees." And I was like, "Yeah, sir, down to your knees." He's like, "Down to your knees." All right. But my butt cheeks will show, sir.
23:36 Everyone, but everybody goes, "Dude, it was funny cuz everyone goes halfway." I just went and you just hear my belt bang hit the freaking ground. It's like a toddler. Did you do this? Did you do this, dude? I I did, bro. You have to I did everything. Is Is it cuz they want They want to make sure you're not You don't have like a bottle with someone else's Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's That's what it is. So, they have to open it up. But that was like the funniest experience ever. And then the lasting, honestly, the last one was the freaking uh the physical check. Which one was the physical check? You know, when the doctors come in, but you know, I've I've done my physical before, but I I was I was just freaking ████ with the kids, you know. I was just like, "Bro, they're going to open your cheeks. They got to touch everything. They going to go up close and everything." And all kids were like
24:26 the knees were just moving quickly. And I was just like, "Yeah, they want to join the army. They can't even ████ do that." Oh, remember they're they're 18y old. They got a 30-y old Asian dudes ████ with them. That's all. Private. Let's check you. That's why they call him private. But then and then the freaking Dude, the physical check was I don't know if we got time, but the physical check was the funniest. For the next one, we'll save it for the next. That's amazing, dude.
