worker i thought it just made
you a skank who's stealing dental floss for your scumbag kids uh grew up in a
row home
so uh oh did you yeah okay two bedrooms three brothers so i'd stay in the same
uh that's the
story same bedroom with my one brother slept in the same bed till he went to
college and how
how far apart are you two well you guys couldn't get your hands on a set of
bunk beds no my mother got
a bunk bed when he was like a junior in college or junior in high school like
we got upgraded to a bunk bed
when we were like i was like 16 and then you know you have to like do you guys
still quietly jerking
off that's got to be the first yeah did you guys still make the fort when you
got to finally get
the bunk beds we're still going to swing from this thing right yeah he went to
uh he went to texas
a and m and i finally got my own room holy shit damn that's pretty good yeah he
well he got kicked
out after the first semester this is this is this is the level but he got in he
got in this is the level
college i think you guys like your fat you come from is that like you're trash
clear trash
but like you're also you're very good looking you're very good at talk like i
feel like you can
bullshit your way into certain like you can achieve things and then once you
get to the party everybody
like you're not allowed at this party yeah and then you it up somehow yeah like
i was making six
figures and i decided to start this comedy yeah exactly same like you can con
your way into
something yeah like you've had a scheme the whole time every job i've ever
gotten came from my charm
at the interview and then i didn't know what the i was doing so then i'd just
be lying my way through
the first three months until i got fired he was a good softball player yeah tom
it says here you
you know code i'm like do i know code he's at the front of the class if you
open up your syllabus
everybody code red what are you talking about here i just cheated off everyone
in college at drexel
and then i got positions and i couldn't really still get into drexel that's
pretty good drexel's a good

the hamptons
fucking roll up the the the the the pants a little bit you know get a little khaki
thing going a little
capri vibe you know put a mojito on his hand and you wouldn't even know it yeah
he you get you acclimate
very well yeah and you also you're the kind of trash that like fancy people
want to be around because
you're not like on by the looks of it you're not very dangerous you know what i
mean you don't have
like face tattoos and like you're not like screaming but like but like so
people let you in you know what
what i mean from the wrong side of the tracks then you end up like stealing the
silverware i feel like
once classy people recognize that you're trash and you're entertaining they
want to pet you that's
what i'm saying you're yeah you're an anomaly you're safe we'll let you in
because you're not going to
bite us entertain us yes meanwhile you're banging his daughter some real skis
