Short filmTranscript
00:00Annie died the other day, never was there such a lay, whom among her dollies dead, first don't tell your mother had, making Annie slightly mad, but very wonderful in bed, saints and sinners go your way, youth and maidens let us pray.
00:16Hey boy, you roll that paper yet?
00:18It's dark as shit.
00:21Nah, not yet.
00:23My finger.
00:25You're doing this to yourself. You're supposed to be practicing.
00:27All you do is vape anyway, why you need to learn how to roll the paper?
00:30So I can say I can do it, but not well, like just enough so like if I'm in a social situation, like no one's going to ask me to do it, but I can like stand there and say I can do it.
00:42And besides, it's just weird, man. You gotta know how to roll. Unless then you're just going to be one of those dudes talking shit.
00:50I mean, not in the cute way that a girl's like, you know, this dude's trying to holla at me, but in the lame way, the get no draws kind of way.
01:00Yo, I want some Chick-fil-A, man.
01:02Aren't we, um, we're not supposed to be eating there because of the gay stuff?
01:08Chick-fil-A is not hurting from nobody eating chicken. I'm hurting.
01:14And then, you know, being a black man, if I wanted to protest everybody that hated me, I would literally starve to death.
01:21It's for more like a group.
01:23It's like if there's a group of people and they're like, let's go Chick-fil-A, and then one person's like, oh, I don't want to go to Chick-fil-A, then forces you like to talk about it.
01:30I think that's, that's the point.
01:34Yo, it's Sunday.
01:38Damn, man, every time.
01:42I swear it's like it's a chemical in Chick-fil-A, man.
01:45It makes you want it on Sunday.
01:48Fucking crazy, yo.
01:49Every time.
01:51What happened to you yesterday?
01:53I was just kind of bummed.
01:55Why?
01:57I saw this moth in my room.
02:01It was going towards a light bulb.
02:03And it was, you know, buzzing around it.
02:05And I wanted to know why they did that.
02:07So I looked it up.
02:08Because moths are looking for the moon.
02:10They're looking for moonlight because they're trying to fly north.
02:15So this moth, everything in it's telling it to do exactly what it's doing.
02:20It's doing the right thing, but it's just the wrong light.
02:23It's just doing exactly what it's supposed to, but it's the wrong light.
02:28So it just kind of bummed me out.
02:29It just seemed so futile.
02:31Yeah.
02:33Yo, we should buy Chick-fil-A biscuits on Saturday morning.
02:38Like a bunch of them.
02:39And then sell them out front of Chick-fil-A on Sunday morning.
02:45Swag.
02:50Got your ass.
02:52We're never going to do that.
03:22Wow.
03:23Dope.
