      I actually care about my dad, and it was diabetes not cancer for my mom, but otherwise same. IDK WTF I can do if/when my dad ever needs care like that. Literally my biggest fear in life rn.

      Mark Cuban: Interesting pitch, I’m not positive I support your business model… But I’m willing to offer $50 for 75% of a handjob if Mr. Wonderful is willing to match my investment and offer your dad a rusty trombone.
