I kind of love this "Can I Live?" question.

Would someone please stop filming and take care of that crying child's needs? Damn.

I love that the best that can be said about a man from Connecticut (and NC, too, to be fair) is #NotADick.

My 14-year-old and I watch this over and over and over again, at her request. We quote it a lot. Whenever she does something praiseworthy, for instance, I'll say, "you go, Glenn Coco." Because I'm not like a regular mom. I'm a cool mom. ;)
