I feel like, okay, I'm a couple things.
I'm a carpenter and I'm a comedian.
So is Jesus.
But I did not gouge the elderly.
See, that's the joke I repeat.
If somebody came to me as a comedian and said, here's a five-minute joke I would like you to tell, and I read it as an accomplished comedian, and it was just a zero.
Just empty calorie, styrofoam, piece of fucking shit with an 80s bad sax solo in the middle of it.
I would look at it, and I would go...

And then a bunch of cocaine.

hooker boobs just thrusting out.
