Oh here she come. Think she better than everybody. No, Tanesha. I just think I'm better than you. Oh, here we go. Yes, devil's eggs. Wait, where's the rest of them? They all right there. So you took six eggs, cut them in half and brought them for three people? Well, you know, eggs is expensive now. If you can't afford the eggs and don't volunteer to bring the devil's eggs. And now they already going. I can't have them. So you know, I'm friends with your cousin and I just want to come over here and see how you doing, you know, I think you fine and I just want to know if you want to come out with me sometimes. I don't like my cousins, so I'm definitely not gonna like you. Well, they know. What the hell? Oh, my God. Father, please protect us from the sun and the moon and the stars and the dirt. This has been going on for 17 minutes. Happy y'all not even Christian. It's just performative. The Bible says, you know, honor thy mother and thy father, okay? The Bible also says you shouldn't be cheating on your wife, but that doesn't stop you for the last three years now, has it? That's so disrespectful. And you going on some of your trips. When you gonna finally settle down and start having a family of your own? And when you gonna stop minding my business? Those trips keep you warm at night. At least I got a man. Charles hasn't had a job since 1998. You don't have a man. You have a child. I love me. Okay. All right, don't be a stranger now. Don't worry, I will. Wait, what? You know, I've been in therapy for a very long time now and I've completely regressed here. So I won't be coming around for another 10 years or so.
