On-screen text

You see, I actually don't mind being single. What I do mind is being single and broke. Cause that has to be one of the biggest plagues. Like, I feel like it's worse than all the diseases that the Egyptians went through during that period. Broke and single. Oh my god! Do you know how terrible it is when you don't have anybody to make you happy and you don't have the financial capability to make your own self happy?
