...Is it time...?

Not yet.

...Is it time now...?

No...

...Is it time--

I am dangerously close to hitting you if you keep that up.

Sorry...

Come on, mum. Don't be so mean to Cap'n. He's just excited.

Excited for a new year to terrorize...

A new year to cause trouble...

And a new year to do everything better!

Better is usually defined in a positive way. Nothing you do is positive.

Not true at all.

Really? Name one positive thing you've done this year.

Hah! Really? Are you going to make it that easy?

If you're so confident, tell me.

I really am looking forward to what stupidity you'll spout...

I made a family.

...Happy New Year!
