Yeet.
Yee?
Yeet.
Geek.
Yeet.
Yeet?
Yeah.
What does that mean?
It’s, like … yeet.
We've invited you all back to school today
to talk with a total stranger
about growing up in your different generations.
You each have a stack of questions.
Let's see how it goes.
You know, like, do people still say "fleek”?
Things are on fleek?
No, no.
I would have to say "jah-like."
And it's a term that you use
when you want to refer to something as "very."
So if we had just finished a class,
and we had taken a test,
we would say, "Oh, that class was jah-like hard."
So, a party could be jah-like?
Lit.
Fun.
It was a thing where everyone went, "Oh, that's bad."
And that meant it was good.
Oh, right.
Yeah.
Like "sick."
Oh, that means it's cool?
Yeah.
Some people say "sick."
For me, I say "dope."
I was a good kid.
I think I was afraid to get in trouble.
I had a knack for not getting in trouble.
I'm typically the guy that helped
everybody get out of trouble.
The only time I remember getting in trouble was in pre-K.
I was making soap mountains in the bathroom.
I think being late for class was my biggest problem.
Cutting school.
This girl, she tore up my calendar for no reason.
So I was, like, "Oh, you did that to me, so I'm going to do that to you."
I would have a phone and, like, text guys.
And I wasn't supposed to be texting guys yet
because I wasn't, according to my parents, old enough to be talking to boys.
And also running my mouth too much.
Same.
Once I start talking, I can't stop.
And it's all downhill from there.
We would pick up stuff from the dump.
And we end up picking up these
anti-tank rocket launchers.
And we stuffed bottle rockets in it.
We got in trouble for that.
Oh, my sex life.
I'm in my 50s, my husband's in his 60s.
We are madly in love, and we still have great sex.
That's awesome.
I think my daughter doesn't really know that I'm very sensitive.
I'm very strong-minded.
And I act very strong
because I want her to grow up to be very strong.
But she does have a very sensitive side as well.
I had a wild side.
Other things about my kids
I wouldn't want them necessarily to know is my failures.
That I have had times when I...
didn't want them to know that I was depressed
about how I was going to pay the bills,
take care of the family.
What is something your parents don't know about you?
They definitely don't know how bad I am at math.
I am a goody two-shoes.
But I have a little rebellious spark.
It's funny … my parents think
I'm one to go and get into trouble.
Well, my friends think the opposite.
I guess I can be pretty stressed out a lot of the time.
I try to put myself
forward as a pretty stress-free, carefree person
to my family, to my friends.
But sometimes it just gets the best of me.
All the rehearsals, then practices that they've driven me to,
and all that they provide …
So yeah, I guess they don't really know that I'm super grateful.
