Did you see that Imagine song that all those knuckleheads got together and sang? Imagine There's No Heaven? This is not the time when everyone's Grammys dying, you fucking idiot, to sing Imagine There's No Heaven. And there's this sense of... You feel like they've... that they feel like they did something significant there. She's so happy. Gal Gadot, whatever her fucking name is, Wonder Woman. She's got this beautiful smile on her face and so happy to sing that. Thank you. Just like... like she's seducing you. Yeah. I lost my job at the meat packing plant, but Gal Gadot sang Imagine. And it's a terrible version. You guys suck at singing. Yeah. Why are you even singing publicly? I didn't even post, but I... I tried to do one where I... First of all, I tried to do that where I go, Imagine. I just started laughing hysterically. So then I did one where I go, I want to connect with all you guys, so let's just jerk off to the other and I just start... reaching in there. Then I go, I'm not used to this hand. Just try to connect with all my fans, but it's such a dumb move to... I don't know. I can't believe how many people... I mean, I guess that she must have reached out to them, send me a... you singing a little... And they want to be like tight where they're like, sure, Wonder Woman. Yeah. I'll do it. Imagine all the... Yeah, like, okay. Okay. I couldn't keep a... I tried to do it. Stay off. Fuck. Stay offline, you fuck. I tried to do it. Get off your phone. Did you have a video you made? Yeah, I tried to do it because I wanted all of us to mock it. I think I have it. I think some comics did something like that. Yeah. Yeah, they did. Imagine there... I couldn't even say it. What do you got? Like, I saw Eric Andre and them like slob on my knob. That's what they did, right? Did they? Exactly. Yeah, they were like... Yeah, they did like a parody of it. It was great. Well, the weird thing is, you know, people are sitting around going, oh, people think I'm cool if I do this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, instead of like just capturing a genuine moment in your life, which is really hard to do on social media anyway because you feel like a fucking dork. You know what's a weird feeling though is like, imagine you had worked with Gal, right? I thought about this too. Like you did something. You were in a movie or something and then she hits you up. Hey, I'm trying to do this. You have that moment of pause, especially as a comic because you have like so much self-awareness where you're like, oh, that's going to be lame as shit. And then you have to like figure out a tactful, you know? I would ghost her. Just don't respond. 100%. 100%. First of all, I could give two fucks whether or not I'm ever in a movie again, ever. I know. And I'd have two fucks whether or not I talk to her. So I'd be like, ghost! At first, she'd be like, what's up? And she's like, will you sing a line from Imagine and send it to me? If I'm friends with her, like if I've had conversations with her... Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. I would have to say, listen, you're awesome. I think you're great. Yeah, I don't know. But that is a ridiculous idea. It's so lacking in self-awareness and so ridiculous. Let me tell you what I would do if I was... Even if I wasn't a comic, if I saw someone do that, I'd be like, what in the fuck do you think you're accomplishing with this? I felt so much better today seeing celebrities sing Imagine. It made it better. It made the world better. This pandemic was not really that bad. Grammy died choking on her own vomit, but I feel like the world's better because Gal Gadot is so pretty. Gal Gadot. And she started it off. Imagine there's no heaven. And then at the end... Big smile. She did a really sincere look into the camera, like, look what I did for you. Did she? I mean, yeah, that's how it ends. I didn't get to it. She's like, hmm, I feel connected to you. Yeah, there's some people, man, that get real self-indulgent and self-righteous with that fucking social media. It's exposed a lot of celebrities for being real dorks. Yeah. Yeah, of course. You know? They should be exposed for that. But they never got a chance to be exposed before. They would go on a Tonight Show. They'd do these things. They'd do these interviews. Everything was real fluff. Yeah. But you could just leave them alone with a phone. Or you get great stuff. Did you see Tom Hanks' wife singing along to Naughty by Nature? I was really surprised. That was awesome. Yeah. It was good, though. It was fun. No makeup. It was exceptionally good. Exceptional. Yeah. No makeup. She's having fun. Hip hop hooray. Here's the thing. That cadence and that rhyme pattern of that song, it's not easy to mimic. No. It's not easy to mimic. No. She did a good job. But it's also so obvious that she wasn't trying to be anything other than have fun. Yeah. Well, when you're drinking children's blood every night for dinner, you have fun. Is that what they do? Well, I think so. I don't know. I just read the comments. I thought they just fucked those kids. I don't know. Are you sure? It helps you keep your rhythm going. Yeah. Hip hop hooray. She was just having fun. That's revealed that she's super cool. Yeah. With no makeup, right? She's not trying to get dolled up. No. Like, there's these people that some people are doing these like quarantined, like day five. Here we are, day five. It's like so contrived and super contrived. I guess they want to connect with people. They want to talk to people. But, oh, I mean, what are we doing? Yeah. I mean, are we doing that? What are we doing? Yeah, we are. We are. But we're having a conversation. We would have this conversation if there was no microphone. Yeah. We'd probably talk a lot more shit about people. Yeah, I mean, that's always a big component of a good time. It's fun. Who's that? Talking shit's fun. Yeah.
