Delete the awful things you wouldn't want to say out loud, now that you know better, but let the stuff that's simply embarrassing remain with the rest.

Said and shown starting at 2:53: More and more, I am reminded of how similar Hank and I sometimes are, at least in some respects. Why did I bring that up now? We both seem to laugh at similarly odd times, and funny things to us sometimes aren't as funny to other people. Also, our level of laughter and tone of it is somewhat similar. Is this too weird? Maybe I'm just making these comparisons because I long for the days when some of my friends and I can laugh at things we said ten years ago. Or maybe I'm making them because I had too much fun watching this video. No. Scratch that--"too much fun" does not exist. The point is: you two just made my day with this joyful piece of home sapien life. Oh, and that moment I referenced at the beginning made me literally laugh out loud, but more than that, contributed to this comment and was incredibly wholesome. And that was an understatement. Also, said starting at 3:47: Hank's laughter again reminded me of the comparison.
