this blows me away the most because I want to say my best friend, but hey, I'm a bad drug dealer. I'm sleeping on couches, up and says, Hey, you should be working security. You're the most expensive city in the world, way worse than LA. You're drowning in debt. Come grab some shifts. You get a hazard pay, you get extra pay. Nobody wants to work with people pulling knives on them. He gets me, he gets me the job, and when he was stabbed to death, I didn't do what you did or, you know, a lot of people, Molly, blow, every drug, alcohol. I went from the most pure gamer. I was the highest-ranked Dragonite in Maples, were in the Scania server once, and I never. My girlfriend would be like, Dude, you changed. I never noticed the change. [Music] [Applause] [Music]
