"you know, i'm Mike. I'm not malevolent or anything i just am. I just wanna just... live my life. I know you guys talk bad about me and got a really bad stigma about me.. But you know I'm gonna make sure you talk about me.. and your grandkids and kids after that are gonna know about me. I'm gonna make sure of that, they're never gonna forget about me.Your grandkids are gonna say 'wow wasn't that a bizarre individual?'"
