:03:00
Oh, shock...
:03:02
But did my fellow artists
appreciate
:03:04
the comedically ironic aspect
of my new superhero character?
:03:08
No. They just thought
I was an idiot.
:03:11
You know, most of these people
are Satan-worshipping junkies.
:03:18
Hey, look, all I want
is for my artistic courage
:03:21
to be an inspiration
to others.
:03:22
Instead, I'm a joke.
:03:23
Excuse me. I didn't mean to interrupt.
:03:29
Embarrassing.
:03:31
See, that's when I came
to a profound realization...
:03:34
Everything I do
is misunderstood.
:03:38
Haah!
:03:39
Everything I do
is misunderstood.
:03:41
I mean, think about
what a burden that is.
:03:43
What a thing
to go through life with.
:03:45
All I'm trying to do
is be funny,
:03:47
and I end up
feeling like an asshole.
:03:51
What a fucking jerk.
:03:57
Howard, it was a home run.
:04:00
You think so?
:04:01
Absolutely.
And when you said,
:04:03
"All of Hollywood
can kiss my ass,"
:04:06
you had every teenager in the
country eating out of your hand.
:04:10
My guess is we'll get
coverage from 200, maybe 300...

:04:26
Howard.
:04:29
Howard...
here's your ticket.
:04:31
OK? Now call me as soon as
you get to New York, will you?
:04:34
Yo, Fartman.
Love you, man.
:04:36
Thanks.
:04:38
All right. So getting back
to what I was talking about...
:04:41
More than anything, I'd like
the public to appreciate me.
:04:45
No, forget that.
I want them to love me...
:04:49
Not the myth, but the man.
:04:50
The real Howard.
:04:52
Let me demonstrate my point.
:04:54
Thank you.
:04:55
Now, take this woman,
for example.
:04:57
She hates me.
:04:59
She doesn't even know me,
