00:08Comics are a visual landscape of our inner life.
00:12Yeah, absolutely. So do you like it?
00:15No. These are just talking heads. You didn't utilize a space. It's completely stale. There's no movement.
00:21And what are you trying to say about dating anyway? That it just sucks?
00:23Yeah, it's really hard to think.
00:25Okay, that's too general.
00:26Why don't you focus on something you know to be true? Why is this girl, a.k.a. you, choosing
00:33to date these shitty guys?
00:34It's not that she's choosing. It's just...
00:38Because that's what you're doing.
00:39Mm-hmm. I don't know. It doesn't start that way. I just feel like I'm trapped in a horror movie.
00:45Well, people love watching horror movies. It's your choice whether you want to live in one.
00:53Try again.
00:55Now?
00:56Yes, now.
00:57Okay.
01:03Hey! Hey! Do you need me to call somebody? That thing's not cheap.
01:06What are you doing?
01:08I just...
01:09Hey. Are you okay?
01:11No, I'm not. I'm not okay.
01:13Come here. Come here. Come here.
01:15My love life's a joke. Kathy thinks I'm a joke. I'm a joke!
01:19No, Kathy's just tough. All right? The fact that she's invested this much time in you already is a miracle.
01:24I just wanted it to be good. And it's not... It's not good. It's bad. It's bad.
01:31Come here. Come here. Look. All you gotta do is just kick it into high gear. All right? It's like
01:36I always say. It's better to burn out than to fade away.
01:41Did you just steal a line from Kurt Cobain's suicide note?
01:45Yes. Yes. But... Nirvana got me through high school, so...
01:50Well, Nirvana gets me through everything.
01:53Good. Now, get back to work.
01:58What? How's your two time?
02:02Wizard.
02:03He said what? That doesn't even make sense to me. It's better to burn out than fade away.
02:07Why is everyone trying to make me listen to Ariana Grande?
02:10Okay, now, first of all...
02:25It's Kurt Cobain. Well, it's Neil Young, but it's not important.
02:29There we go. Something was different. Brayden was decent to me. I think he might be into me.
02:35Don't think about Brayden that way.
02:37I'm not. It's just... Isn't that how it works out? You end up with one of your friends?
02:43I don't know about that rule. You haven't heard it?
02:47No. It's like, it's always the person right in front of you. Yeah.
02:57Hey, lady. Did your day get any better?
02:59No. My dreams are still shattered.
03:02Alright. Fuck it. Let's just... Let's get drinks. We're there, right?
03:05You and I are getting wasted tonight.
03:08I don't think...
03:09No, it's not an option. All the great artists are alcoholics.
03:12I do have to be true to my art.
03:14Let's go. Glass is kinda low. Time for round two.
03:18Alright, bartender.
03:20Can we get another round for the tortured artist?
03:24Whiskey?
03:25Whiskey ginger.
03:26Whiskey ginger. Tell me.
03:28Oh, thank you.
03:30Are you still seeing that Robert guy?
03:34Uh, Richard? And no. I did not have the daddy issues required for that relationship.
03:40Well, that's good to hear.
03:42Why?
03:44No reason. Just...
03:46Okay.
03:47Plus, I told you you were too good for him anyway.
03:49You did not tell me that.
03:51I did. I did. I called. I called. I said, hey, you're too good for him.
03:53No, I didn't get that. I didn't get that call. The email?
03:55No, no, no. The email did not go through.
03:57Oh, shit.
03:58What?
03:59My crazy ex-girlfriend.
04:00What?
04:01Don't, don't follow me.
04:02Pretend you're my girlfriend.
04:04Just laugh. Just laugh.
04:05Okay. Uh-huh.
04:07Okay.
04:08How's Canada, piece of shit?
04:10Wow.
04:12Wow.
04:12She hates you.
04:14I know.
04:14You moved to Canada?
04:16I'm a piece of shit.
04:17Yeah.
04:17Shots.
04:18Okay, wait. I got it.
04:19Open the door.
04:20I got it.
04:23Oh.
04:23Ta-da.
04:23Wow.
04:25I thought this place would be a train wreck.
04:27Oh, screw you.
04:28I'm sorry.
04:29I'm sorry.
04:31Let it be known that Braden Fox is a gentleman and he always walks a lady home.
04:39Chivalry is not dead.
04:41You're right.
04:42It's not.
04:43All right.
04:44I just need to lie down just for a second.
04:47Just for like, just like, just like, just for forever.
04:51Mmm.
04:52Can I just, um, throw up in your little pocket?
04:55No.
04:55Don't throw up in my pocket.
04:56It'll be a surprise for the morning.
04:59Okay.
05:04Mmm.
05:05Nice couch.
05:06Thanks.
05:06This is nice.
05:07Come here.
05:08Give me your leg.
05:09Okay.
05:09Like that.
05:10Pretzel.
05:10Oh.
05:11Okay.
05:12He kissed you on the forehead.
05:15Like a baby?
05:16Yeah.
05:17And then he fell asleep on the couch.
05:19Which is kind of cute, right?
05:21Hey, a man dog.
05:22I see you survive last night.
05:24It was fun.
05:25We should, we should do it again sometime.
05:27Okay.
05:28Um.
05:30I gotta not be here.
05:33Oh, here.
05:34Check this out.
05:35So this is a friend of mine.
05:38Well, he's gained a little weight since then, but I think you guys would be perfect together.
05:42You both like the whole romance and shit, you know?
05:45I'm sorry.
05:46You're pawning me off on your friend?
05:48Well, yeah.
05:49You know, I could, I could tell you were falling for me.
05:52So I just wanted to let you down easy, you know?
05:54Whoa, wait, wait.
05:55No, no, no, no.
05:55You were hitting on me all of yesterday.
05:58Oh.
05:59If I were hitting on you, you would know.
06:01No, you are a full on dick, is what you are.
06:09If I had a nickel.
06:13Are you salting Braden's food?
06:15Maybe.
06:16Listen, in his defense, you always knew that he was a dick.
06:22Yeah.
06:23I did know he was a dick.
06:24But I just thought he was one of those dicks that if he met the right woman would, like, un
06:29-dick himself.
06:31I'm an idiot.
06:33I should have told you you're an idiot.
06:36Listen, because I'm emotionally intuitive on my grandma's side, I'm not gonna filter the messages that I receive anymore about
06:43your dating mistakes.
06:44Okay? I'm just gonna be brutal.
06:47Okay.
06:48And I'm not saying that I condone this situation, but if you put one drop of this on that, he
06:54will puke.
06:58One drop?
06:59I'm not saying anything, I don't see anything, but yes, one drop.
07:02One drop?
