22. "growing up ... sometimes I partied too much...." (crowd cheers) |
|
"now, this is a cautionary tale ... dont be cheerin' too much."
(STILL brings me massive joy to know the President of the United States of America sometimes uses the word "be" in a way not formally used before .... ya know .... like us regular folks use it. lol)
