I, bet, you, are. But, why, would, she, be, a, [ __ ], to, you? Honestly,, she, just, keeps, saying, over, and over that Tip and I spend too much time together, but we're best friends.

How, much, are, you, together?, Really? Every, day. Oh,, that's, nice., It's, kind, of, like, me and my husband.

Yeah,, but, we're, not, married. We're, friends., The, thing, that, pisses, me off is I just think that Britney makes Tip crazy. And when Tip and I are together, it's chill. Like, everything's flowing. We're good. Like, I'm I'm satisfied. I'm happy. But like, do you want to sit on that little couch with Tip every day the rest of your life? I don't know.

When, I, go, to, the, nail, salon, by, myself, it is the best. I love me time. I love me time. Don't you ever want me time? Every man needs alone time. Don't you remember alone time when you're a little teenager playing with your GI Joes?

I, started, work, when, I, was, 14. Oh,, that, can't, be, legal,, son., I've, I'm never really alone. Like, I don't Why?

Well,, there's, your, problem., I, mean, sure, a friendship's great if you're together all the freaking time, but isn't it so great when you have that one bestie pal that you haven't seen in 3 years, then you meet up at a beastro in the Poconos, and it's like you never left. You don't have to worry about whether they're okay or alive. You just meet up and vibe. I'm always just wondering about Tip's phone and if it's charged and if he's eating enough because we work together. I want to make sure his energy levels up.

I, think, it's, kind., I, think, it's friendship. Might, be, kind, for, you,, but, it, sounds like with a wife, he needs to be putting that energy somewhere else. You know there comes a time in your life when you got to start being responsible rather than just using things as a crutch. You know, you can't be his crutch. That's embarrassing. You're too tall to be his crutch. Won't fit in his armpit. Almost done.

I, can't, be, Tiff's, crutch. That's just in a month. Why, are, you, shocked? I'm, sorry., We, have, a, 3:00, a.m., call, time all week. How are you that many [ __ ] a day?

What? You, have, a, beautiful, soul. Don't, call, me, beautiful. Okay,, but, you, are, you, have, such, a beautiful light and an orb around your body. You're like God. No, you're [ __ ] No, you do. You know how gorgeous you are?

Really? You're, so, beautiful., You, can't, just, like contain that here. You got to go out and spread your seeds.

Yeah. Do, you, put, a, condom, on, when, you, all those girls? Of, course. Do, you, Oh,, God.

No,, I, don't, I, don't, sleep, around., Just asking. Yeah,, of, course. How, often, are, you, getting, tested?

I, don't, need, to., I, feel, like, in, school they told you you should always get tested if you'reing that many people.

Okay., Don't, make, it, weird. I'm, not, making, it, weird., I'm, just, asking a question.

Do, you, like, anyone? No. Nobody. No., My, ex,, she, was, pretty, toxic., She wouldn't let me look at other women at the mall.

She, was, intimidated. Don't, tell, him, you're, not, going, to, get back with her, right?

I, don't, know. No, matter, what, she, says, to, you,, just like just don't listen to her. I've never seen someone so like down and beautiful at the same time. Whoa. Thank you, Nick. You're a really gentle gentle soul.

Except, for, right, now,, cuz, I, need, you, to hold still while I cut this thing.

Oh,, I, would, never, do, that, at, work. Do, you, want, gel, in, your, hair?, Not, the gels. Like the lights, the you little little lights that you work with. I don't like those. They make my fingers feel weird.

Why, are, you, touching, the, gels,, Elaine? Sometimes, a, nice, young, man, asks, me, for help. He says, "Can you hand me that gel over there?" I say, "Sure." And I touched the gel and I hate it.

Well,, that, young, man, should, be, fired because he should never be having you touching any of the gels.
