I MEAN, WHAT'S THE POINT? THERE IS AN ASIAN WOMAN THERE WHO IS COVERED IN CUTS. I MEAN, SHE'S KIND OF ATTRACTIVE, PROVIDED YOUR TURN-ONS INCLUDE A HORRIBLE PERSONALITY AND KNIFE SKILLS. SHE IS A MAIL-ORDER BRIDE, THOUGH, WHICH IS KIND OF COOL. FIRST ONE I'VE EVER MET. SHE BURNED HER HUSBAND'S HOUSE DOWN. IMAGINE HOW PISSED YOU WOULD BE IF YOU PAID FOR A WOMAN TO BE SHIPPED FROM CHINA AND THEN SHE BURNED YOUR MOTHERFUCKING HOUSE DOWN. SHE "LEFT-EYED" THIS GUY.

YOU SEE THIS BICYCLE." AND IF I'M EVER GROCERY SHOPPING, THE WHITE CHURCH LADY PRETTY MUCH HAS ME COVERED WITH, "EXCUSE ME, SIR. I KNOW YOU'RE BLIND, SO YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T SEE THE LINE, BUT IT STARTS BEHIND ME. THANK YOU. GOTTA GET THIS WINE TO CHURCH COMMUNION." THANK YOU. YOU WANT TO DO A SET? OH, NO, NO. I'M GOOD, THANKS. COME ON. WHO AM I? WHAT'S HE DOING? OUR ASSIGNMENT, DUMMY. I'M BUDDY SOLITAIRE. I'M HANNA BALES'S SON. MY MOTHER WAS MY HERO GROWING UP. I PROBABLY WATCHED HER "LETTERMAN" SE THOUSANDS OF TIMES. WHICH IS ABOU HOW MANY TIMES THIS WEEK SHE'S CALLED ME "A COMPLETE PIECE OF SHIT." THE PHYSICAL ABUSE WAS BAD. SHE WAS EITHER HITTING ME TOO HARD OR HUGGING ME TOO CLOSE. WE'RE KIND OF LIKE NORMA AND NORMAN BATES FROM "PSYCHO"... EXCEPT WE NEVER HAD A FUNCTIONING SHOWER. SHE'S MY MOM. THE ONLY FAMILY I GOT. SO WHATEVER I FEEL FOR HER, I REALIZE I GOTTA LE A LOT OF THAT SHIT GO, BECAUSE IF I DON' I'M NOT GONNA MAKE ANY ROOM IN THE FUTURE TO MEET-- TO MEET NEW PEOPLE. AND THAT HAS BEEN AWESOME, GUYS. I TRULY MEAN THIS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH. IT'S SO NICE, SO-- EXCUSE ME, SORRY. VANESSA, PLEASE. TALK TO ME. THAT WAS GREAT. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD. THAT MEANS A LOT. BUDDY, WE DON'T WORK. -WE JUST DON'T. -THAT'S NOT TRUE. WE CAN'T FIX EACH OTHER. I HAVE TO DO IT MYSELF. OKAY? OKAY. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU, TOO. GOODBYE. OKAY. [INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING] |
