I hope you’re doing well. It’s been a while since I’ve uploaded a video on my channel. This was due to a variety of factors, including health, but now I’m back and I have a new video coming out this Sunday at 2:30 PM CST.

Steve, going back to not looking like he’s about to cry: You get the big slice of chocolate cake with chocolate icing that you wanted and no one complains about it being messy until after you get home.
Eddie: That’s not using your powers for evil. That’s getting one over on people that suck. That’s a good thing.
Steve: One time I was mad at Tommy so I went to his house when he wasn’t there and bawled my eyes out to his mom and said he was being mean to me even though he wasn’t, and then he couldn’t go on the end of year field trip in sixth grade.
Steve: I had my first kiss on that trip
Eddie: With who?
Steve:
Steve: His wife
