I wrote a short about an emotional idiot. It was a stretch. @andylanden directed it and @barryrothbart made it happen. @NoraKirkpatrick and Lucas Neff were nice enough to be in it. @drennondavis wrote a rad song for it too. I’m proud of it, check it out!

I’m a flight to Chicago in the middle seat. A husband and wife are on both sides of me talking and passing food back and forth. I asked if they wanted to sit together. They said “no we like the window and aisle.” Im taking a bite of the next fucking sandwich they pass over me.

At SNL one time Lady Gaga had R Kelly come do a song with her. I was in my own world so I didn’t know/care. At the good nights there’s this dude I’ve never seen, AKA: R Kelly. I asked Kenan who it was and he just said “a bad dude, stay away.” Kenan is never wrong.

This has ignited a firestorm. I didn’t “pick the middle.” I’m not a sociopath. My seat got assigned at the gate. Bottom line we ended up having a threesome in the bathroom. It was tight, uncomfortable, and we got caught, but how often do get that opportunity?
