So I leave out of my apartment to go in the hallway lock myself out with the blender going Well Two thirty in the morning coked up out of my brain Now I have to go to my landlord dude who lives right down the hall and tell him like hey man Hey during the morning. I got locked out My god, he must have hated you. Oh the blender shorts out and smoke happens the fire Alarm starts going off in the building right as I'm at his door knocking right? Now he's pissed and he's like what's going on and I didn't know what to say I told him that I was throwing a late Christmas party, dude It was fucking into January. How old was you at the time? Huh? Oh, this is two and a half years ago. So So he comes back to my apartment My god man, but that's it it was fun. Oh my god That was fun. How long did you live there for I still live there? Whoa.
