WEBVTT 00:09.740 --> 00:11.851 I actually started when I was younger 00:11.851 --> 00:14.000 um I was one of Ninja turtles . My 00:14.010 --> 00:16.066 parents didn't want me to have any , 00:16.066 --> 00:18.177 remember they actually told me when I 00:18.177 --> 00:20.232 was in first grade , I couldn't have 00:20.232 --> 00:22.454 them until I got it until I turned 18 . 00:22.454 --> 00:24.677 So you know , a little kid , I'm saying 00:24.677 --> 00:26.732 anything alright 18 started counting 00:26.732 --> 00:28.899 down the days . I never understood why 00:28.899 --> 00:31.230 batman was okay , but the ninja turtles 00:31.230 --> 00:33.008 weren't , but I ended up with a 00:33.008 --> 00:35.230 Batmobile , just , you know , the older 00:35.230 --> 00:37.790 style had a little um he pulled on the 00:37.790 --> 00:39.980 shifter in two torpedoes came out 00:39.990 --> 00:42.060 batman figuring they were my two 00:42.060 --> 00:44.060 favorite toys and just went on with 00:44.060 --> 00:46.171 that . You used to watch the original 00:46.171 --> 00:48.770 series , animated series came out , I 00:48.770 --> 00:52.350 came home , there's a two Sisters at 00:52.350 --> 00:56.220 the time and nobody came in the 00:56.220 --> 00:58.442 room unless they want to watch batman . 00:58.540 --> 01:01.170 So there's batman Superman and batman 01:01.170 --> 01:04.470 right after I had a good time . Um , 01:04.480 --> 01:06.910 read comic books when I could , parents 01:06.910 --> 01:08.966 didn't really like the idea of comic 01:08.966 --> 01:11.299 books they liked us being outdoors more . 01:11.840 --> 01:14.780 So we had a lot of toys and stuff with 01:14.790 --> 01:17.790 five kids later on in the house . It's 01:17.790 --> 01:19.846 actually dress up , set , stuff like 01:19.846 --> 01:21.901 that wouldn't , you know , there's a 01:21.901 --> 01:24.220 black cape in there , but um , that one 01:24.220 --> 01:26.387 lasted until we were trying to play on 01:26.387 --> 01:28.640 the bat cycles and the cape caught in 01:28.640 --> 01:32.060 the chain . Never word after . Um , 01:32.640 --> 01:34.696 but even then it was , it was just a 01:34.696 --> 01:36.973 liking , it wasn't really an obsession , 01:40.240 --> 01:43.230 grew up , started getting into the 01:43.230 --> 01:45.397 Marine Corps and everything . I met my 01:45.397 --> 01:47.790 wife , she knew that I really liked 01:47.800 --> 01:51.250 batman by that time and it actually 01:51.250 --> 01:53.250 started with the belt buckle that I 01:53.250 --> 01:55.570 have and she went and bought that for 01:55.570 --> 01:58.800 me as a gift . So I can't , you know , 01:58.800 --> 02:00.689 playing around with love this bad 02:00.689 --> 02:03.022 buckle going around , showing everybody , 02:03.022 --> 02:06.040 I'm batman stuff like that . Oh , I got 02:06.040 --> 02:09.210 home and she had gotten home before I 02:09.210 --> 02:13.080 had and I told her this is great and 02:13.080 --> 02:15.302 everything . So his mommy going to pack 02:15.302 --> 02:17.302 the lunches when I go to work , she 02:17.302 --> 02:20.680 whipped out batman lunch box . I 02:20.680 --> 02:22.736 thought you know , everybody's gonna 02:22.736 --> 02:24.736 make fun of me but it's pretty cool 02:24.736 --> 02:26.902 lunchbox . I'm gonna take it to work , 02:26.902 --> 02:28.902 go to work dude , that's an awesome 02:28.902 --> 02:32.520 lunch box . It's great . Um after that 02:32.520 --> 02:34.631 it just kind of exploded . Especially 02:34.631 --> 02:38.390 after my son was born . We sat , we go 02:38.390 --> 02:40.446 through them all and everything like 02:40.446 --> 02:42.668 that . Fine little articles of clothing 02:42.668 --> 02:44.834 for him and everything . Get ready for 02:44.834 --> 02:46.946 him when he gets older stopped at old 02:46.946 --> 02:49.168 navy , it's like batman shirt central . 02:49.168 --> 02:51.580 So we went and picked up everyone we 02:51.580 --> 02:55.450 could find . So he had packers , one 02:55.450 --> 02:57.940 patriots jersey from mother in law that 02:57.940 --> 02:59.996 got lost real quick . And a bunch of 02:59.996 --> 03:03.900 batman shirts . Mhm clothes for dad 03:03.900 --> 03:06.011 followed in suit because mom went and 03:06.011 --> 03:09.160 bought um so I've got four different 03:09.160 --> 03:11.750 batman shirts to sweatshirts now 03:13.940 --> 03:16.107 she went and joked around about a pair 03:16.107 --> 03:19.160 of boxers . Um , the one she recently 03:19.160 --> 03:21.216 bought , she actually just sent me a 03:21.216 --> 03:23.330 picture of is the actual old suit , 03:23.340 --> 03:25.340 It's got the little belt around the 03:25.340 --> 03:27.396 sides and the hoodie comes over with 03:27.396 --> 03:29.396 the ears up top . She bought me the 03:29.396 --> 03:32.030 patch that I have that was actually in 03:32.030 --> 03:34.197 the picture that could dampen took for 03:34.197 --> 03:37.280 A and B . Most of this stuff actually , 03:37.740 --> 03:39.907 if I had anybody I had to blame on the 03:39.907 --> 03:41.760 obsession to be heard . So 03:49.340 --> 03:52.690 it's kind of weird because I mean you 03:52.690 --> 03:54.820 think about it . Women in a geeky 03:54.820 --> 03:57.570 obsession don't usually mix , but since 03:57.570 --> 03:59.737 she kind of turned me onto it actually 03:59.737 --> 04:02.380 works out pretty well . Um the blanket 04:02.390 --> 04:05.110 that I have on my bed , she made just 04:05.110 --> 04:07.221 because she wanted me to go away with 04:07.221 --> 04:09.480 something that she made , but at the 04:09.480 --> 04:11.820 same time was idealistic to everything 04:11.820 --> 04:13.709 else . It was also kind of a joke 04:13.709 --> 04:16.500 because we were told that we might want 04:16.500 --> 04:19.650 to think about bringing sheets out , We 04:19.650 --> 04:21.650 didn't want to spend any more money 04:21.650 --> 04:24.150 than we had . So I went and looked to 04:24.150 --> 04:26.039 see what cheats they were , had a 04:26.039 --> 04:28.190 choice of spongebob or batman . Which 04:28.190 --> 04:30.357 one do you think I was going to take ? 04:30.357 --> 04:33.050 So worked out perfectly . I also have 04:33.060 --> 04:35.004 another blanket coming in the mail 04:35.004 --> 04:37.270 because I told her it was cold . I 04:37.270 --> 04:39.492 didn't even have to ask for it all of a 04:39.492 --> 04:41.840 sudden bam . I got a queen sized black 04:41.850 --> 04:43.794 mink blanket coming out with a bat 04:43.794 --> 04:46.480 symbol in the middle . So honestly , I 04:46.480 --> 04:48.647 think , I think it's just one of those 04:48.647 --> 04:50.647 extra things for us to talk about . 04:50.647 --> 04:52.702 We'd be best friends and husband and 04:52.702 --> 04:54.758 wife either way by . It just has for 04:54.758 --> 04:56.980 her , something for her to laugh at and 04:56.980 --> 05:00.690 give me a stupid grin . So , and uh .
