[Bit 1]

I've actually been going through a depression
these last six years, you know, since the pandemic.
And it started when I lost my dad.
Did anybody else lose someone during that time
when you couldn't be with your loved ones
in their last moments?
I am sorry to bring the party down,
But I got the phone call and the lady was like,
"Is this Tina?"
And I said, "Yes."
And she said, "I'm so sorry to tell you this,
but your dad has been pronounced dead."
And I was in shock and I was confused
because my mom pronounces it deadbeat dad.

[Bit 2]

You guys don't have to feel bad for me.
He didn't leave a will,
but I did inherit his blue handicap parking tag.
So where did y'all park?
I do have all his leftover prescription drugs.
So if anybody has diabetes or high blood pressure,
I'm selling those outside two for five.
