what how'd you wouldn't say poor I was middle-class the meaty part of the
curve for sure middle of showing off well like I had I had a little I found
we had a little bit of money at times because but it was like very blue collar
so we were like still fucking trash we lived in like a nice neighborhood but we
were like they're like race cars yeah there was there was a big NASCAR there was
like an on there was a shed that was never finished in the backyard yes your
home was like new construction yeah it's just all there's always something like a
mick mansion outside empty on the inside was always one poor family lived in a
mix that was always one poor family that lived in that neighborhood yard wasn't
done oh my god well like I had to I mowed the lawn everybody else had like a
landscaping I was out there with the John Deere you know do you remember the kid
growing up what you could do anything in their house the parents are like never
around my buddy Justin but it was always like dirty you know I'm talking about oh
yeah we we'd kids like that in the neighborhood my mom used to wash my toys

friend's house and be like oh man I don't want to eat over like yeah most a
lot of the way yeah really I had one free meal is a free meal yeah yeah do you

himself going over the friend's house to eat can I stay over my house is a house
I bet a lot of parents hate it your guts as a little kid no you probably got
along with mom mom's really well I got along with everyone man my house was a
house everyone came over to play with to play at and what age was in like grade
school well it was like a couple weeks ago yeah yeah it was can Steve come over

made it that I loved it because it was so exciting no someone else do that my
mom can't talk to other people what's going on my mom for some reason was real
weird about that shit she hated yeah cuz you'd have to clean the trailer
Terry put your pants on the fat ones got your friends coming over yeah she
clean the wood panel she hated even all through high school she hated me sleeping
out at like friend's house like it was always a thing of like what you don't
want to stay here you don't want to stay here with your family that's that I was
guilty and you know what it was because I remember when I was I was born in a
place called mountaintop all right it's fucking garbage for sure and my
cousins look like a girl you dated in college my cousins live next door but
then they moved that's another sign of garbage when your cousins share the same
property line your cousins are your family oh my god yeah so listen so they
moved and kindergarten and this hot young couple moved in this was I'm talking
this is early 80s all right these people were attractive doing aerobics and
shit playing volleyball in the back she was smoking I knew this in kindergarten
all right but he worked for Kellogg's so they had all these little boxes of
cereal all the time every year we go you're in heaven many Wow so I would go
over there all the time and like how many of their dogs got killed cuz holy
blamed it on Friday yeah I think it was a dog he's got Cheerios coming out of his
mouth no but like for some reason me and this woman like really hit it off and
like I would go over there all the time and this woman hit it off I'm telling you
I think you were molesting right she's a little me over with with tasty treats and
sugary sugary snacks she molested me I hope I don't want it to be blocked out
and she was right okay fair or faucet bounce a quarter off that thing but I
remember one time my mom like screaming at me like why are you over there all the
time and like game you were hanging out with the fucking hot 22 year old what's
a reverse out of Piscots now we're talking about my mom talking to your
mom but your mom's pussy on the phone so what Kevin is the line is Ian so what
Kevin is saying is not funny exactly where we draw the line what Kevin is
saying is that you know being garbage is determined by by money or social class
it's just the kind of habits that you develop well that you get from your
parents or that you your parents might not be like I don't really think my
parents are trash but I know I'm trash well my thing is I and I would talk
about this about how we're all garbage but the good thing about garbage is that
you can recycle so no matter how bad you are you can always change no I
understand for sure yeah yeah that's like something do you think so you do
think you're garbage well that's why I shove cans up my ass and puke up
cardboard
yeah right regular way like an inner-city 8th grade teacher I used to be one oh my
god I forgot what you actually talk yes no I taught the inner-city since I was
like fucking in college alright take it easy Joe Brown I joke Clark I truly when
I was a teacher I thought it was a major Joe Clark and Michelle Piper I thought

baseball bat and leather skirt kids don't know what to think where were you a
teacher New York City hold on wait hold on oh hi or anybody I taught and I taught

college to follow fish on I skit that'll talk about garbage I had to take a
semester of all-in-completes because I was just drinking alone all the time and
then told all my professors I was in rehab and sold everything I had for
drugs Jesus Christ and I didn't know at the time that I was having alcohol
withdrawal so when I went in the room I was just naturally shaking so they like
really took me through yeah of course yeah well yeah you're going by as as my
I've since made amends with them individually and everything but what I
had to do was my I had to take an extra semester so I had to do one semester my
normal semester plus the old semester workload plus work at the same time
she didn't teach it was a fucking insane that's a fucking terrible plus being
alcoholic so it was at least it was fun it was a lot I think we answered the
garbage question here I'm gonna wrap this but my my next guest everybody and

listener before we started recording and you know filming this Ian pulls out a
fucking red bandana like the nerdy is the nerdy is blood gang member I've ever
seen in my life and blows his nose in it and then proceeds to wipe his face with
it now when we when when will you watch that you cannot be under 80 and carry a
fucking handkerchief my grandfather carried a handkerchief and he helped
raise me so I carry a handkerchief but my dad wore bandanas my grandfather had a
handkerchief so let's combine the two a bandana handkerchief hang on raised by
grandparents slept in beds with adults was like Willy Wonka in the chocolate
oh yeah totally but dude speaking of bandanas when I I was teaching in
Brownsville and as garbage do right there speaking of bandanas would kids would
throw out bags of weed on the desk big what do you think of this Cali Kush I'm
big I think if I turn around it's still there I'm going home and smoking a bag
of weed Jesus so I turn around they take it you know it's like to test me and then
I you know was sweating I pulled out a rim bad and in this kid flying colors
they were like listen when they were they were this is like 2006 2007 and this
this kid was like listen mr. fried ants I like you you got to throw that bandana
away right now because it was red and they were like the crypts we're gonna
kill you and I was like I'm a teacher and he goes they don't care I just dropped
in oh yeah the gang members that you know I've never been more scared in New
York City than going to and from the school in Brownsville to teach I mean
one of my kids got one of my kids got his cell phone stolen and word got out
that he told insurance to get a new phone and they beat the shit out of him his
mom took him out of school and they moved to Michigan how's the lacrosse program
Jesus Christ water polo school yeah I mean kids would be on the cell phone in
class like this was a school where you went to if you got kicked out of my
final credit you spent time in juvenile detention whatever so kids would be in
class on the cell phone talking about like different guns they own and I'd
just be like guys on the board please I missed her for dance I mean I really had
to learn about like choosing the fires to put out yeah you know yeah which
which which battles to take but then you know it was great I would just fucking
drink a 40 on the way home forget about it and then you moved to Philly and
started doing comedy I moved to Delaware started doing comedy in Philly and
yes that's where you grew up yes I left it 18 move back
2003 you leave it 18 your move move like very springsteen ask like you know you
put your guitar in your back and it was it was like and I do pond factory in my
review gonna be an alcoholic teacher in Brooklyn I'll be somebody I'm gonna go
drink a 40 and steal weed from adolescents yeah yeah yeah why get a
bed when there's a curb with a building pillow you know but yeah that was I
left it 18 and I was fucking wow because I'd never been away from home you know
and I'm in New York seems like you took it well you adjusted quite well yeah it
was it was fucking rough bro now do you think your garbage yeah but I work on
it every day to not be hmm you know I fully am aware that I've I wasn't raised
to be garbage but at a certain point because of excellent yes and then you
realize your garbage and in getting to know that child that was not ever meant
to be garbage I've gotten rid of the garbage it's through therapy I've taken
out the pieces put them on the ground inspected and decided to throw this out
keep this whatever and so I really work hard to recycle my garbage and not be
that piece of shit well see I think I think I was a piece of shit as a coping
mechanism I think some things some garbage things are good or home like what
enough well we'll get into when we play the game just questions about when you're
six and your neighbor fucks you for fucking Kellogg when your neighbors got
to set it I mean I don't I don't think it's I don't think it's totally things
that you need to be ashamed of I mean I don't know what you were doing but when
when you're when you're last garbage and you did when well when you're when
you're an active addiction that's a little bit in a way that you never thought
you would to get what you need to get to be well oh sure yeah and so like you
just do things that you're like I can't and then that would keep me acting in a
garbage way because I would act out and do something shameful then I would drink
to make the shame go away and then I'd feel such shame I'd have to do a
shameful thing again to make that go and it was just a repeated cycle just a
downhill a fucking shame cycle that you got to get yourself out of you know
sounds like a good time yeah this is going yeah that being a data side yes
what's the last the last thing you did that was garbage like example I thought
today I did something that was pretty trashy I really had to poop but I was
hungry so I was eating not on the toilet no I've done no really eat on the toilet
I've drank in the shower I've smoked in the shower different dude I mean matter
and sandwiches don't go together I'm just saying that I had to go but I kept
sitting there eating eating that's a fat thing I don't know if that's really
fucking garbage that's a fat piece of shit that's like I want to finish this
yeah that's like the the bag of fat from Fight Club the people on the toilet yeah

a dog you are close that dog it's a cat so you have a dog and I kiss him on the
lips yeah no you get a little weird with those animals I love animals no but
I practiced kissing on my dog when I was younger not with my mouth but just like
that's it I'm leaving Delaware one more for the road like how do you do this is

what you're not invited I know what you're fishing for dude can I tell you a
thing about invitations to a wedding so talking about being garbage I've had a
tendency to like really isolate and like extract myself from like friends and I
mean I've done it with you guys have you ever gone to a wedding and not given a
gift oh yeah yeah yeah totally dude so I did I did it to somebody that's like
that's like a family friend and I hadn't seen him in like 20 years and I saw him

strong feeling he ain't over it no yeah you know what I mean just like you know

better gift than yeah yeah that's what a garbage person tells himself yeah you

whatever reason and I figured out you know I've had massive abandonment issues
so I'll get close and then I leave so you don't have a chance to leave me sure
I mean yeah and I spent a lot of time like isolating whatever and you know I'm
very much like a lone wolf and I just have to accept it whatever but I was
killed Billy so there I am staring at a noose and I'm not sure what to do but
you know I figured the cheesecake factory dates next week I'll take Billy and
Jamie out you know you being too hard on yourself I've had a lot of friends who
have been there for me and I've chosen not to be in their lives or whatever so
this guy that you know best friend lived with him on and off since we're like a
team or whatever I kind of went I we just you know and when you get involved in
comedy you kind of lose everybody everybody gets cut out whatever right so
I we're I'm living with two of our other best friends we live together in
college we live together after college right so they're talking about his
wedding and they're like oh yeah well to save the date is whatever oh actually
the invitation you know whatever and I'm kind of listening through the weeks and
then like they're like yeah I'm getting ready for the wedding next weekend I'm
like huh so I text my go hey man I know our mail systems messed up sometimes
I think my invitation lost in the mail. It ain't messed up buddy you stink. I did
I know the letters and I hit him up and go hey I think the invitation got lost in
the mail. He goes you know I didn't want to have this conversation but it's a
small wedding and we also haven't been closed. I know the current state of
Latin America is very up and down right now but it's odd I didn't receive my I
did not take the social cue and I had such hubris to be like well the mail's
messed up. Maybe they put it in our box. I'm not an asshole. It could be the whole thing in
Syria. I'm not an asshole. Who knows? UPS. I'm not an asshole. The mail to you know everyone's doing
emails now. Hey Gary it's Ian listen I understand that you can't afford to send
out invites and you're probably calling people and probably a lot of them. I mean how
crazy is that. That's fucking that's that's crazy. That's garbage. That's a garbage
move. You could have stopped that on so many levels but it yeah you just blew
the world. Am I not invited to this wedding? And mark me now for the chicken. I didn't get
invited. And no gift but I'll tell you. Alright talk to him about it. You guys need my
own blender? We like to talk about our friendship and everything and it actually
sparked us like close. That makes sense yeah reconnecting. It was good in the end you know.
Just the right get near that buffet huh. A fucking move dude. That's a tough one dude.
That's fucking terrible. Alright sorry. So this is I'm on I'm at this you know comedy club
and I'm on the road and this is this guy. I think about this. I didn't mean to yell you
two or three times a day and I didn't have and you know so obviously you know I was
featuring so it's like you're not making a whole bunch of money you know so it's like
and you know the club takes Gary and everything but you always gotta you always gotta tip off
the staff very you know. Yeah you gotta bring the staff off. And they were they were super
nice it was super good everything was great you know so the first night I hit him you know
next night too I always want to do it on the I don't know I always do it the night
up the night. I used to do it at the end of the weekend they switch. Sometimes they turn over
and then you'll you get there on Saturday and you're like where's Gary they're like oh he's off.
What do you get and he hates your guts. It depends what I get something if I'm like drinking
or if I get dinner or sometimes I just get like two diet cokes or whatever so it depends
but you know typically if I like get a meal I give you what I would have got for them.
That take care of you at the end of the weekend shit come on. Well it's typically it's when
you get paid too. I used to do that but now I do. I do I do night of yeah. But I only
get coffees. Yeah so it's like you shouldn't be really you don't get a hot meal. Oh I always
well yeah I got I meant like drink wise. Yeah yeah yeah because the drinks you'll rack up
whatever. Yeah yeah yeah so I don't think I had I don't think I ate but I might have had
like a couple diet cokes or whatever. I'm starting to get I know dude I'm a big tipper.
I'm a good tipper. I always say I'm a good tipper. I stand by being a good tipper. All right
to let this let it be known. You're sweating right now. Kevin Kippy James Ryan is a good
tipper. I would like to say that I am a good tipper. And but I didn't have any cash on
me right. And I'm like oh well I'll get paid some whatever so but then this guy so I think
I get served or I did eat. I did eat. I think I got fries so then he serves me the fries.
So this guy comes up he takes the fries and then a guy comes up next to me and orders a beer
and but then whatever the exchange of it is he left a 20 in front of me. Who's this guy.
Just a guy buying a drink at the bar pretending it was your I didn't pretend it was anything
they assumed. When was this. Oh my God. I'm not keeping the club bank but it was on the road.
It was on the road six years ago. Okay. It was years ago. I used to get meals from the club
and take them home for dinner. I have a feeling you've done that more than a couple of years ago.
I used to take extra meals from the club and take them home for dinner the next night.
So he goes so he just grabbed it was a 20 so he just grabs the 20 and I'm not really got my phone
out or whatever I'm going over notes getting ready for the show he goes thank you so much man
that means a lot and walked away and I was like what they were asking about the beer.
He paid for the beer they like say with it say it was $5 for the beer the guy gave him a five
that's what I'm saying he probably whacked them off another 20 so he got he grabs the 20
was thanks a lot man I wasn't really paying so I go yeah sure and then you know I swear to God
I didn't know so then he walked away and I'm like oh he thought I left that fucking 20 but also
now I got no cash on me so whole thing so I'm like I wouldn't be able to order anything so then
I go all right so then I'm like I'm like I'll make it right I just don't have the courage to
make it right at the moment you know like in my head I'm like I don't know what the fuck to
say I already he's gonna think I tried to pawn it off like it's mine and then the he must have
went and told the other guy cuz the other guy came up because thanks a lot for that by the way
oh buddy I'm in it I can't so it's just again man and I just left with my head between my
legs you're good kids like a real big piece of fucking shit you tipped him out I did it
got on that I tipped on the first night this was the second night so not only did I so after
you got paid you didn't go back and say hey by the way I did it I can't we tipped him again
I already lied I was in you want to hear you gotta fucking kill all the witnesses you know
what I mean shit tipping story I'm not proud of that have you ever worked at restaurants
yeah you yeah you probably still do he's awake so I gotta get to the cheesecake factory
but from doing that for so long I have I'm like ultra sensitive and I was like yes
yes always I always tip I always of course you know at clubs I always have that one time
you know and except that one time yeah dude I I was working in a restaurant and you know
the stereotype about certain types of people that don't tip and we have a lot of them that
are friends came up in Philly you know you know that's it that's it that's a term in
the industry they say Canadians I know but I go go to take the thing and I look and I
see on the credit slip they just didn't put anything for tip and signed it and I was like
a new waiter and I wrote it in what the fuck I was like are you kidding me you're a hero
like these and my inner racism started going I was like I fucking knew it I fucking knew
it and then I go to chase him down the street and I'm like you didn't fucking leave me a
tip they go take the receipt out I take it out and it's all cash tip I suck I'm a piece
of shit fuck me and you know it was I just felt so but sometimes I didn't know how I
see that type just proven of course multiple times yeah I had so this but I do a club in
St. Louis and you'll see a proven oh yeah and you'll see the staff also really go along
with it and tell you that it's true yeah I worked at the Dallas barbecue in Times Square
for a little while shut up time yeah what was that like he didn't have money to pay his
bill oh my god was it like a mace video from 97 it was brutal it was brutal that's the
place where they put the they have like the frozen drink no no money no tip they stick
they stick the beer or like a little bottle of henna yeah in there in the in the frozen
margarita that's garbage do you remember the story in Chelsea about like that gay hate crime
some guy threw a chair at a gay guy in the Chelsea Dallas BBQ where'd that come from
I was in Dallas barbecue yeah yeah so what happened was it a war zone yeah it was terrible
I do but like I'll do I do respect a garbage move that happened you that you telling that
thing I there was a restaurant in Center City Philadelphia when I was working and I went in
for lunch and I got like chicken fingers and like you know a soda or something big chicken
fingers and diet coke kind of guy who is the crack how the chicken I'll take the chicken
figure is platter please I'm a platter man twice please me double fry so can I substitute
the fuck I fucked it up I was gonna say coleslaw for more can I substitute the fries for more
chicken fingers can I substitute that joke for a better punch so I so then I wrote out
let's just say the tip was nine dollars right I'm making this number up it was nine
dollars the tip was and I only had a hundred bucks in my counsel I was like I swipe my
card it was 10 the whole the whole bill should have been 20 right and then I left the tip
I left the thing and I left the other receipt as well you know how they give you the merchant
copy and the short so when I left the other one customer copy I left that as well and
you're an idiot I know I haven't done it since so he fucking made it the total he made the
total a hundred dollars completely cleared out my bank account to zero like I woke up the
next morning go back there went back there they close that night for good it was his last
hurrah I got walked up fucking doors boarded up closed for out of business and I was like
you fucking got me I got got I can't help it scumbag I got got to one time I was on
acid and I went and got a cheeseburger in the East Village and it was like the world's
best cheeseburger and so then I was eating and I was like I had a dream of cheeseburger
was eating me this is not the best cheeseburger this is the moment in time you stand up for
yourself and make it so I went and got my money back for the cheese and I convinced myself
on my acid trip that I started a new me one that takes up for himself no you're garbage
yeah yeah oh dude when I was drinking I used to do a thing where I would go up and say
that I'd stand at the bar and here you go put on my tab Ryan and then you piggyback on
that well I would go up to the guy and be like hey I had that same shirt wow and make a big
deal and be like can I get you a drink he'd be like okay and I go to the bar and be like
hey I keep this on the Ryan tab and I get a couple drinks and I go up and give him one
and I just fucking walk away that's not terrible that's a that's a shaky move but that's smart

I went home for a weekend and my parents and I started talking about something when I was
a kid and I realized how much garbage I am you know our primary source of heat when I was
a kid was a coal stove I don't even know what that is that's amazing what is that that's
amazing like like you couldn't afford it like Kingsford cold we could it's just that was
like the thing we liked it oh dude that's why your poor parents told you nobody likes
that my favorite would pull up every every every couple of weeks and it would give you
coal it would pour little things a coal into a coal bin and me and my brother would have
to bring the coal inside it seems rust yeah that's how you got some trash that seems rustic
and we did you have a heater put no you'd pour it into a coal stove and you would get
I don't know what any this this sounds like fucking home on the you know home on the range
that sounds rustic and nice like that would happen in a town called mountaintop this was
in bluebell Pennsylvania my I really live next to the super friend was in center city
Philadelphia I realized I was trash when my favorite memories as a kid were going to the
dump loading up the truck throwing shit in the dump the cherry island dump you know what
else was a big one for me when I realized was we would go trash picking what yeah we
like drive around with my step dad like take a bike that you would see or what a lamp or

I was in such pain and he was like you know he won't lay down and my dad was in the room
he's in pain don't touch him like that he goes well he's not cooperating and he pushed me
down I screamed my dad took him and push him up the walls like don't ever fucking touch

sounds as you know it's really trashy to you ever have you did you go and Dolly had an
above ground pool continue I've been above he's got a semi above ground which is even
more trash it's like don't two feet into my knee high parents build a deck around it so
you can jump right in oh dude he thinks it's the coolest thing in the world it is fucking
gone in the summer to have to take ground pools that's what trash you're justifying the
garbage nest just admit we had to take turns on the one lawn chair to get a suntan that's
did you grow up near a quarry no okay it's pretty good but but I was 10 minutes away from
a coal like oil plant like a bunch of power plants yeah sure have you ever had a pet
explains the forehead and the hairline take what no more questions have you ever owned
a guinea pig no never a snake never a hermit crab yes alright I used to thunk him off the
cage remember that you'd gain their trust a little bit you'd be like I don't think so
Herman have you or any member of your family ever traveled to another state or another
town with the express purpose of going to a buffet yes garbage yes my to Lancaster
Pennsylvania my grandparents made friends with the Amish and I've had I had two
thanksgivings with a straight up Amish family where we shot the oh you shot the
turkeys yes and I would walk around barefoot with them and we're playing clothes so that
they would feel more comfortable because they were all black and I'd shovel the manure
yeah Jesus you have to die of fight ants yeah anyone in your family play scratch off lottery
tickets yes I had an uncle that ran numbers yeah that's pretty classy numbers numbers
that's a that's a respectable job yeah growing up did your family have any roommates
we had a minor league baseball player stay in your mom's room and one day one day I swear
your mama sure does off your baseball boy one day I swear to God I made a joke on Twitter
that was like I love Ghostbusters so much I wonder if I was molested when I watched it
immediately this guy I didn't talk to in years and he goes hey we should hang out sometime
shut up why you got to you I kind of think I was molested to him blocked out but I kind
of have an aversion to baseball now and baseball players um kippy are there currently any catch
up packets in your fridge soy sauce packets that's on the fence I collect chopsticks that's
normal nobody really keeps a big jar of soy sauce right well I do because I have Asian
roommates yeah I got a big progressive I got an Asian girlfriend we got the best stuff
okay what is it what are you trying to prove me wrong here I know what about um who used
to babysit you when you were a kid oh dude I had a fucking cast a character because we
had a woman that was that was mentally challenged up that baby so let me tell you
something we fucking tortured this poor woman Jesus we used to she would send us to bed
we would wait like an hour like a full hour and then sneak back downstairs why she was
all by herself watching TV and sneak up into the chair behind her and just fucking yank
to recline her back so she would fall we'd scream those we just we'd yell moon ride
moon ride that's what we called it we called it a moon ride we give we'd give Doreen
Kareke a moon ride that's a trashy named Doreen Doreen Kareke hold Doreen me and me
and Terri are going out oh my god I left 20 for pizza call moon rides either Henry
call that retard Doreen and hide the sharp objects you know what's crazy is that like
after a little while they hired another one that would come with her and she was also
mentally challenged they were the only two people to live in moon top what are you talking
about mountain top where the fuck you were from dude we had one so my buddy had one growing
up and like his parents would go out and this girl would woman I don't know she was from
the wrong side of the track and Ben Salem Pennsylvania bad like a lot of babysitters are
from the wrong side yeah well yeah there's no fucking you know Scott rogue scholars going
out for babysitting jobs so she would let it we were 1213 and she would let us watch porn
and now looking back like the first wait how old was she like 20s 30 she had to be new
still hard no the first time we can watch them when we get home we were leaving the
drop me off lady this is fucking wait really yeah dude that you were one step away from
being molested it wasn't I was my friend so like I was with my friends and if you're 13
she's 20 that's not my wife she was like she was late 20 she was late 20 she shouldn't
have been doing it all right no way I was obviously she I was going to be in a position
for her to molest me but you want to talk garbage you want to talk garbage you want to
talk garbage the first cigarette I ever smoked was as my babysitter ah that's pretty bad and

business right there by the end by the end of the show I'm like I'm sure you're like

we went to the beach we would all pitch in and rent like a condo together you know my dad
27 people for my dad's mom hold on hold on hold on a condo was it near a beach or anything
it was on the boardwalk or just like you know like another part of your town no is it the
Inverhobe Beach Rojoba yeah we'd all we'd all cram into a condo together first week of
August my dad's mom at a trailer down in like Lewis he and I would go down there and we
fix things up at the trailer it was a best you know I almost I loved it when my father
when we moved to Philadelphia to the suburbs of Philadelphia which I believe changed us
from becoming absolutely complete garbage you would have been a squirrel hunter or something
I can't imagine what I can't hang out I gotta I gotta go hunt for beaver pill
haven't you done Wisecrackers yeah so that's where I grew up that's where I grew up in
Wilkesbury Wow we would have stayed up there instead of moving instead of moving
yeah I used to play as a data girl that lived in a halfway house in Wilkesbury yeah I used
to go up and visit her so we moved out of there when I was in fourth grade and moved down
I told her I loved her in a Denny's what we moved to the suburbs of Philadelphia that's
garbage by the way tell him somebody that lives in a halfway house that you love him
at Denny's yeah but yeah been to a Denny's recently still a top shelf operation amazing
oh my god you look like you were at a Denny's today get the sample you look like you are
at Denny's but if we didn't stay if we stayed in Wilkesbury and didn't move to the suburbs
of Philadelphia which is a nice area I God knows what I'd be doing right now you probably
be better off yeah you'd be a property owner for sure yeah dude you probably have a family
you'd be content no you wouldn't have to get glasses that make you feel better you wouldn't
be wearing big pun sweatshirt either yeah yeah you wouldn't be wearing a letter rest jacket
still not a player I just eat a lot you fucking stink yeah you probably have a better colored
tongue yeah that thing that looks like a cow's tongue like a shiba wieners tongue
shiba wieners dogs those Japanese dogs this is my friend Japanese dog Rachel everybody
don't forget to rate review subscribe he follows me to work every day just sits waiting for

I'm like of course this is the best yeah I love it have you have you ever been to a wedding
at a VFW no I have I've been to a couple may tell you something my ska band used to play

you've catered the fucking thing fried chicken and a little coleslaw how do you feel about

doing but it ain't it ain't bad I'm telling if you go to one of those casual dining establishments
in small towns where there's not like a like a like a like a real restaurant they are fucking
on yeah they are on the point I went to a Denny's in Altoona with cotton and it was like

garbage we knew that going in but I'm a lovable garbage I'm a lovable garbage can we all are
that's the point is everybody's fucking trash and it's funny to jump back into your life it's
good to admit it because to everything that you're not is lying to yourself of course of course
anyone that tries to say that they're yeah but I feel like rich people's garbage is more
like manipulative behaviors in a way like our garbage was a lot of physical circumstantial
things but I feel like rich people's garbage is like oh I you know spread rumors about so
or something like that but they still do like rich people really work with their family too
like they don't like they're not like as like loving with each other yeah and like not as
loving with each other but like they'll be like a like they'll go out to dinner and they'll
split the check or something weird like that I don't know I just say like give me a park
