Transcript

My ex-girlfriend asked me what kind of p*rn I watch, and I was like, I don't wanna break up. Ladies, do not ask that question. You do not want to know. You are bukkake'ing up the wrong tree. You wouldn't ask the president for his launch codes, why are you askin' me for mine? 'Cause you ask a man that question, he'll lie. I lied right to her face. I just told her what I think people look for on Pinterest. I swear to God, I said, "DIY gentle doggy." That's a lie. In reality, my p*rn searches look like I'm googling an obscure restaurant you've never been to. I'm just like, "ethnic hole in the wall."
