Transcript

POV: a 37 year old man takes you on a walking date. I promise I'm not going to murder you. What do you do? Uh, I'm a lawyer, how about you? I'm taking a break from work after I was unfairly Lego last year. They put me on a pip, but it was bullshit. How have you been filling your time? I just go to open mics, yeah, it's been going pretty well. Probably see me on Netflix soon. I'm glad you don't wear a lot of makeup, the last girl I went out with was a total catfish. You know, maybe for our next date I'll take you swimming. I just haven't met the right girl, yeah. Oh, what does the right girl look like to you? Hot. Hot, hotter than you. You're a lot taller than I thought. I'm 5'8. There's no way you're 5'8. I'm 6'2, so you can't be 5'8.
