Mike Ask me how does it feel.
Peter How does it feel?
Mike I'll tell you how it feels. I don't like it, that's how it feels! I don't like surprises, I don't like all these people jumping around and shouting, wha - I don't even wanna HEAR what you're saying! Because you know what you're saying to me? You're saying "Happy Birthday" and you're jumping out of the walls and it's scaring me to death, and I'm supposed to be HAPPY about that.

Besides, I probably would have been happier where I was, sleeping. "Happy birthday"... HAH! And I'll tell you something else too: the same thing goes for Christmas. Well, how bout THEM apples!
