Transcript
Oh my god, it's your 22nd birthday next weekend. What do you want to do? 22? Actually? What? My life is over. I'm 20, I'm old. And I don't even have like no SVJ, no mansion, no 10 billion dollars liquid. I might just fucking just throw myself in that ditch right now. What the what's even the point of living anymore? 22. 22. I should have had all these things when I was 16 years old. All right, you're being mad dramatic.
