    [Music]
  • 00:02:12
    this is terrifying
  • 00:02:16
    no it's not bad it's not fun for half a
  • 00:02:19
    century old
  • 00:02:20
    yeah this is twice as old as you are
  • 00:02:24
    yeah wow i've got three tattoos on my
  • 00:02:28
    body and they represent the three women
  • 00:02:30
    in my life who have scarred me
  • 00:02:31
    this i got with my wife who is now my
  • 00:02:33
    ex-wife this i got with friend
  • 00:02:35
    and she's still a friend and this i got
  • 00:02:37
    by myself to remind me not to be an
  • 00:02:39
    [ __ ] to my ex-girlfriend
  • 00:02:41
    oh my god no more tattoos for you ben is
  • 00:02:43
    not an [ __ ] to his girlfriend
  • 00:02:45
    but he is definitely an [ __ ] to
  • 00:02:48
    anyone that tries
  • 00:02:49
    to steal from him for example his car
  • 00:02:54
    alright so my car just got it
  • 00:02:56
    disappeared i'm not sure what happened
  • 00:02:58
    to it
  • 00:03:00
    this car got stolen three times
  • 00:03:03
    and all three times he got it back
  • 00:03:06
    and sent the thieves to jail how
  • 00:03:10
    by literally chasing the thieves so what
  • 00:03:13
    do we do now
  • 00:03:14
    so we can rent another car to chase down
  • 00:03:16
    my car which is what i did last time and
  • 00:03:17
    this actually works pretty well but like
  • 00:03:19
    here's the problem because um there's a
  • 00:03:21
    five minute delay on the gps
  • 00:03:23
    so we have to kind of guess where the
  • 00:03:25
    car is he has a gps
  • 00:03:27
    installed in the car and when it gets
  • 00:03:29
    stolen he calls it over
  • 00:03:31
    and chases the stolen car all the way
  • 00:03:34
    until it parks oh my god we're chasing
  • 00:03:37
    down people we might have guns
  • 00:03:40
    oh let's see actually job alter you can
  • 00:03:42
    go straight straight
  • 00:03:45
    then the car stopped at the local
  • 00:03:47
    safeway they have basically stopped
  • 00:03:49
    they stopped yeah it looks like they're
  • 00:03:51
    they're in the safeway right now
  • 00:03:52
    all right they're safe i got i freaking
  • 00:03:55
    caught them at a safeway last time
  • 00:03:58
    are you joking we get to the safeway
  • 00:04:00
    make a drive-by
  • 00:04:01
    scared yeah yeah that's the guy that's
  • 00:04:03
    the guy that's the guy that's the guy
  • 00:04:04
    that's the guy in the car do you see
  • 00:04:05
    that
  • 00:04:05
    there's people in the vehicle they're
  • 00:04:06
    trying to drive it you're trying to oh
  • 00:04:08
    sorry
  • 00:04:09
    then he called the police gave them the
  • 00:04:12
    coordinates
  • 00:04:13
    and they came and arrested the bad guys
  • 00:04:16
