"Watch your partner shower the baby with goodbye kisses, repeating over and over “I am going to miss you so much!” then turn to you, quickly say “k bye,” and walk out the door."
I don't have children yet but I think you just fortold my future.
But I just want to say how refreshing it is to read/listen to a comedian with a heart, or more accurately, willing to show his heart. It's unique and wonderful. 💟
Wow thanks! As a sex therapist I’m always happy to have useful, modern, educational videos like this one. AND it confirms my thoughts that one needs to be in a Hitchcock-like movie to get the aforementioned alien/beast/blood-sucking cutie.
"The fundamental belief of your life - that you must be special so that you can be happy, is false. Happy was always just right here, under your nose, you normal little ghoul you." Truth. When I fall into this space, I'm deeply content. It's easy to go in and out, in and out. Luckily, it becomes easier to find it again and again.
My favorite part: Cruise through the demented properties as a familiar voice that sounds like your mother but with a faint echo moans “you coulda been a lawyer, look how good you are arguing with us about it - that’s what lawyers do, they argue - “
hahaha I did not know that ! I am slightly younger I think, as I came up in the inter-90210 years, after the original but before the new one. This is why I am so broken

there is nothing more haunting than this experience, and it happens daily
alex!
it's great!
some specific greats include:
-- You rent.
-- Even though you clean it like really well actually, it reeks.
-- Worse...It’s you.
-- that half-bird, half-human beast: The Algorithm.
-- your homes away from home: Zillow.
-- turning every phrase into an acronym just like your dad. (JLYD!)
-- the babysitter is a better parent than you will ever be.
-- the great puppetmaster Capitalism controls your every move
-- a show about Australian dogs that is somehow also about everything?
-- Happy was always just right here, under your nose, you normal little ghoul you.
love it all! love you! thank you! i halloween you!
can't believe i missed the JLYD acronym. I need to do better and frankly? I will
i know you will.

Dude! Beautiful!
What's new? I love this. Nothing new.

This was so much fun, I'm going to go say "spooky" in a bad impersonation of how you did it.
audio proof or it didn't happen
I have something better, if only I had posted this yesterday for its holiday efficacy

Spooky! (Yet strangely appealing... where does one go about acquiring such a wild beast? Asking for a friend)
hahaha I am told there is a process by which such a thing can happen. it is both magic and horror and mostly just horror.
here's a useful very current video to help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfWi54Yef5M

hahaha omg that would be an amazing angle as a sex therapist - ONLY using videos from the 1950s or earlier. Glad I could help

I agree Jane I feel like most of life is just trying to find that good place again
Aging feels like a haunted house! Love the greeting cards. So classy.

Ooooo -- I am going to get lost in this rabbit hole for a while.
hahah omg i have endless rabbit holes, u just lmk when ready for another haha
Ha ha! “The bottomless champagne problem…” Oh, yes. What a spooky treat this is!

hahahahah thank you Anne lol
More perfection from my good friend, Sasha. YES! Definitely McSweeney’s worthy. If they rejected this, they’re insane.
thank you Nicci!!
Nicely done, and loved the vintage illustrations too!
thanks so much Neal!!
That pumpkin head... .is about to eat a pumpkin pie. Cannibal pumpkins??
Also Bluey is the best.
ok I have spent way too much time googling all the phrases in your comment + Barenaked ladies but have turned up nothing SO THE STREAK IS OVER hahaha
I did find this though: https://how-i-met-your-mother.fandom.com/wiki/The_Slutty_Pumpkin_Returns
Looks like in that episode, one of te characters sings Barenaked Ladies lol
Sorry to disappoint, I didn't have time to work BNL into that one!
Did you know that Barenaked Ladies guest starred in the Peach Pit on Beverly Hills 90210? And I'm old so we're talking OLD SKOOL 90210.
hahaha I did not know that ! I am slightly younger I think, as I came up in the inter-90210 years, after the original but before the new one. This is why I am so broken
I’m Gen X. We wrote the book on being broken. Or disaffected. Or grunge. Or something.
