00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 4: Comedy and it is sold out. And then two doors down,

41
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 4: I think Mike Epps, people from wild'n Out, Nick Cannon

00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 4: are Oh.

43
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: So the audience was spread spread out.

44
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 4: The whole strip was of important people that was way

45
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: more important than me.

46
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 6: So when I tell you the sales were low, I to.

47
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: Hear you say that of equal importance, of.

48
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 4: Equal importance, yes, But when I tell you, when I

49
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 4: walked into the room, it was not.

50
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 6: It showed me that. I was like, oh, wow, are

51
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 6: people here?

52
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 5: So so it was empty.

53
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 4: It was not empty, but it also was not it

54
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 4: was it was it was. It was probably like twenty

55
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,119
Speaker 4: people and it was it's a big, pretty big room.

56
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 4: So the first show was because I did four shows,

57
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 4: So the first show was decent, you know, a small crowd,

58
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 4: but they you know, they fuck with me, so it

59
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 4: was great. The next show, it started pouring raining, pouring raining,

60
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 4: and it took us a while to get people in

61
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 4: and they were like, you might have to call it

62
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 4: and I said, if we call it God's plan, but

63
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 4: they didn't. A group of fifteen older black people come

64
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 4: in and I said, yes, that's who, that's my people.

65
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 6: He was so good.

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, family's here. But then I was like,

67
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 4: I actually hate my family. Why this is a bad time.

68
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 4: So I start talking about I'm gay. They immediately they

69
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 4: were like absolutely not.

70
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 6: So then I'm like I'm literally.

71
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 4: Ten minutes in and I'm like, oh shit, I got

72
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 4: a whole hour. These people really not fucking with So

73
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 4: they're not laughing with me, they're laughing at me, and

74
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 4: now they're yelling at me. They're like, you just haven't

75
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 4: had the right dick yet, that type of that type

76
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 4: of homophobia.

77
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 6: They were like, God will take care of you like that,

78
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 6: yelling at me, and it's like not.

79
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 4: It's a small room, so echoing, you're bouncing off and

80
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 4: there's like men, women, cousins, all this, and so I stopped.

81
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,839
Speaker 6: I said, wait a minute, why are y'all here?

82
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 4: And they always like one of the women, our cousin

83
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 4: told us to come here, and so I was like,

84
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 4: so it's your fault. So then they all start laughing

85
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 4: me because I was like, so it's your fault, cousin,

86
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 4: that everybody hates me because you didn't tell them that

87
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 4: I'm gay. And I was like, so you know what

88
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 4: that means, you're gay? Because they're trying to figure out

89
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: why the fuck you want to come see me. So

90
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 4: then they said any and every homophobic thing that you

91
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 4: could possibly say, and the.

92
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 6: Club no security.

93
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 5: They could have.

94
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 4: Rushed me, they could have did a hate crime, thrown

95
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 4: Stacy Adams shoe at me. It could have happened to me.

96
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 4: Nobody stopped them. It was so bad that the young

97
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 4: white girls were like.

98
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: We like your jeans.

99
00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 4: I said, Susan, you're not saying it's not a helpful thing.

100
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 7: Were they like hostile, like like, were they like middle

101
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 7: school kids?

102
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 3: Oh?

103
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 6: No, no, no they were yes. Yeah.

104
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 4: There was one guy that I had asked him a question.

105
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 4: He's like, I'm not listening to you, and then they

106
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:19,679
Speaker 4: all laughed. It felt like cafeteria, right, but for people

107
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 4: who are almost in a nursing home. So it was

108
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 4: I had never and and then again I'm waiting. I

109
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 4: was like, this would be a perfect time for my

110
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 4: ex to just roll up, roll up with her girlfriend

111
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: to come and see this and be like, yes, I'm

112
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 4: in a better place. This is why we broke up,

113
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, and the whole and they

114
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 4: would interact with me. They would laugh when I would

115
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 4: speak to them because they thought that was funny. But

116
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 4: they would not leave. They would not leave, and I

117
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 4: needed money, so I'll tell I'll take the homophobia for

118
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 4: a check. And I was like, well, I'm not going

119
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 4: back out. I did a whole hour. I did the

120
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 4: whole hour. I tried to I tried to buy some

121
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 4: of them shots. They didn't want my gay shots. They

122
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 4: didn't want nothing. The women I tried to like. At

123
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 4: the end, I was like, thank you so much for staying.

124
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 4: They wanted no parts of me. They thought I was

125
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 4: There was one guy that was like talking to me,

126
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 4: but he was thinking, like, you're not really gay, and

127
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 4: it's like, Sir, my strap is in my person.

128
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 5: I've done the research.

129
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 4: I'm definitely a homosexual. Yeah, but it was it was

130
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 4: scary because I was like, anything can happen. But also

131
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 4: it was like, disappointing black people is a different type

132
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 4: of disapplins. You feel like you let down your ancestors.

133
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 4: You're like, Sojourner Truth is rolling over in her grave.

134
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 4: Harriet Tubman did not free slaves for this, for this,

135
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 4: for me to bomb in Detroit at the House of Comedy.

136
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 6: And so that was the first night.

137
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 4: So then the next day I tell my agent, I'm like,

138
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 4: I'm in turmoil. I'm just like i gotta leave. I

139
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 4: gotta get on the next flight out of here. And

140
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 4: she's like, Okay, I'm gonna talk to them. You don't

141

00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 7: They don't when.

163
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,840

166
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,559

167
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 4: and they were like, no, we're staying until you dropped

168
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 4: the mic. I think they wanted to bully me into stopping.

169
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,160

172
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 4: I really am. I really am gonna pray. And I said, man,

173
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 4: all right. But the next day I did two shows

174
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 4: and they were great. I talked to the people on

Speaker 6: We're starting up top. I am gay.

179
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 4: If you do not like gays or blacks or women,

180
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 4: get the fuck out. And they all clapped and they're horses.

181
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 6: I'm not doing this for y'all.

182
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 4: And I said, I'm putting my phone on live so

183
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 4: anything happened, I'm going viral. I'm going viral and you're

185
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 4: to your post office after this. I would ruin your

186
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 4: supermarket experience if you fuck with me. And they got

187
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 4: it together and they were happy.

188
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:10,440

00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 6: I don't know it was just like old school, like

327
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 6: we've been through it all. We don't need all of this.

328
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 4: Like all you need is like shelter, clothes on your back,

329
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 4: food in your mouth.

330
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,200

335
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to hear that.

336
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 6: The year so long ago, Okay.

337
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 4: So long they actually they passed away while I was

338
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 4: when I was waitressing and old.

339
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 6: I think like twenty eight twenty nine.

340
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 4: My uncle, my great uncle, my uncle papa, he passed.

341
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 6: He passed right after college. So I was like, I.

342
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 4: Don't know, like twenty twenty two, twenty one or something

343
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 4: like that. But I got my job as a as

344
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 4: a waitress or whatever, and I was making a lot

345
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 4: of money. And me and my mom had like had

346
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 4: a big falling out because I didn't finish college. So

347
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 4: I go to his funeral and my mother is trying

348
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 4: to embarrass me at his funeral, and I owed her

349
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 4: like eight hundred dollars because of a singular remember singular.

350
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: The young what's the difference?

351
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 4: No, she had me when she was like in her thirties,

352
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 4: like thirty. Oh yeah, but she was trying to embarrass

353
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 4: me at the funeral, and so I pulled out eight

354
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 4: hundred dollars, like I made it rain at the funeral,

355
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 4: and I was like, bitch, here's your money.

356
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 6: And honestly, it was highlight of my life.

357
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 4: But then we almost fought at hometown buffet, so yeah,

358
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 4: it was.

359
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 6: It was very detroit of us. Well, she's also in

360
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 6: a better place now.

361
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: But oh my god, I'm fuck, it's striking out.

362
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 6: I'm sorry. No, it's okay. I'm a morbid person. So

363
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 6: this is another this is no, no, no, this is good.

364
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 6: I love it. The kid asked me about another problem.

365
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 4: All my exes did, yeah, but yeah, we didn't have

366
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 4: like birthday parties or whatever. So like now, growing up,

367
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 4: it's a bigger thing to like celebrate a birthday because

368
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 4: we can. I think they also didn't. They couldn't spend

369
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 4: too much money on birthdays, so it wasn't a big

370
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 4: deal for them. But now it's like as an adult, it's.

371
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 6: Like, yeah, let's get the cake. That's like two hundred dollars,

372
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 6: let's go.

373
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: You think you're ever gonna settle down and have kids

374
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 1: and stuff.

375
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 6: Not having kids.

376
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 5: I don't do it, want to do it.

377
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 4: No, I think and correct me if I'm wrong. Too

378
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 4: many fucked up people are having kids.

379
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 5: That is correct, too many.

380
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: But I don't think.

381
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 6: I think you're not a person genetically.

382
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: You don't want to pass it down. I think about that.

383
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to give this to anything.

384
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 6: I don't care.

385
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 4: And a lot of people be like, I want to say,

386
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 4: I want to make a little me, because yeah, you

Speaker 3: Raising kids? Are you supposed to do it?

395

596
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 7: just for you. Years ago and Eric andre Fan came

597
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 7: up to me on a Brooklyn street. I was getting

598
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 7: ready to film a prank at an auto repair place.

599
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 7: For this specific bit, I was dressed normcore, just a

600
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 7: T shirt and jeans versus being a giant human potato.

601
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 7: For example, hidden camera filmmaking means you have a hitting crew.

602
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 7: So when I'm about to go in the kill zone

603
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 7: and perform a prank, my crew is completely invisible. So

604
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 7: to this fan, I just looked like I was lurking

605
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 7: by my car on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon. Little did

606
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 7: he know, I was waiting for my cameras to get

607
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,679
Speaker 7: set and for my first ad to secretly and covertly

608
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 7: cue my entrance. My first AD walked up with a

609
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 7: secret nod. I said bye to the fan, hopped in

610
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 7: my shitty car, rolled up to the mechanics, started chatting

611
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 7: him up, then started bashing the shit out of my

612
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 7: car with a hammer, all while asking how much is

613
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,919
Speaker 7: it to fix this boom? How much is it to

614
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 7: fix this smash? What about this bang? The marks were

615
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 7: shocked at what I was doing to my mediocre automobile

616
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 7: mid prank. On my third hammer swing, I accidentally thrusted

617
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 7: my hand through the car window and sliced it to shreds.

618
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 7: I was bleeding everywhere. I knew I needed stitches, but

619
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 7: the adrenaline kept me going. The whole time this prank

620
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 7: was going down, the fan was in the deep background,

621
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 7: jaw dropped shitting bricks. To him, it just looked like

622
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 7: I was doing this crazy anarchic violence in my private life,

623
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 7: talking to him like a mild men or civilian one second,

624
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 7: then going into a psychotic rage at an auto repair

625
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 7: shop a minute later. This guy got to live the

626
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 7: show in real time. To him, I was really that

627
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 7: loco year round, like I fucking lived it, man, I

628
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 7: walked the walk. Little does he know that I am

629
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 7: a total suburban pussy. I meditate journal, drink camemeal tea,

630
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 7: and go to bed at nine thirty pm. I'm definitely

631
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 7: letdown when fans made me. I remember living in Toronto

632
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 7: for a few months filming Man Seeking Woman. I was

633
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 7: getting lunch, waiting online, about to order a bond Me sandwich.

634
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 7: This kid behind me recognized me, Holy shit, your air

635
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 7: co andre ten decimals too loud and it was eleven

636
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 7: thirty am. So I was like waw, not fully with

637
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 7: it yet, craving delicious Vietnamese meats. The fan couldn't process

638
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 7: while I was so boring and doing such a mundane

639
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 7: pedestrian task like buying a sandwich on my Tuesday lunch break.

640
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 3: He looked at me, confused.

641
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 7: Perplexed, nonplus a furral brow splashed across his forehead. Then

642
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 7: he just started hitting me like his TV broke bat

643
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 7: bat bat hit me in the arm and the back. Ah,

644
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 7: I fucking hurt. Then he screamed wow wow, an attempt

645
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 7: to get me to warm up. His real life Eric

646
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 7: Andrey Dahl was running out of batteries and needed to

647
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 7: start breaking something in this restaurant quick. I stood there

648
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 7: nervously giggling. The confused Vietnamese women behind the counter were

649
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 7: just like, please pay us twelve bucks. Then my fan

650
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 7: walked away with a frown. As I was writing this

651
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 7: very book you're reading, I just left a coffee shop

652
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 7: in Manhattan as a fan walked by and started hovering

653
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 7: near me, trying to get my attention. As soon as

654
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 7: I looked up, he forced himself to vomit all near

655
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 7: my new blue shoes. I closed my laptop and ran

656
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 7: into an uber. He continued vomiting and said, Eric, I

657
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 7: love you, barf. I've created quite a nice little version

658
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 7: of hell for myself. Back to the Brooklyn guy, he

659
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 7: left before we finished the prank. So he didn't even

660
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 7: see us reveal the cameras or begged for release forms.

661
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 7: I just remember him laughing and rubbing his temples as

662
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 7: he walked away. Random dude, if you're still out there,

663
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 7: keep on believing I'm cuckoo, because the truth is, I'm

664
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 7: way more boring than you could ever imagine. Dance Machine,

665
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 7: get a friend with a prosthetic leg to join a

666
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 7: dance competition, fill his prosthetic leg with blood, have them

667
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 7: dance like a fool, and have the leg fly off

668
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 7: and blood pour out.

669
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: Then he should say, shit, I dance too hard.

670
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 3: I'll with Eric Andre.
