[Bit 1]

So back when shit was kind of normal here in Arizona,
tried to take my dad to the water park.
It was crazy though.
The kid at the ticket booth, he wouldn't let us in.
He stared at me.
I stared back and said, dude, what gives?
He replied with, "Sir, we don't let people into the park
after they've been cremated."
Yeah, I guess I didn't want dad clogging up
the water filters or some shit.
Don't worry, for those of you not laughing,
this is just a joke, okay?
I don't have the fucking dude's remains yet.
Yeah, no, he's still chilling.
Get it?
Funeral home, more fridge chilling?
No?
Might sound kind of crass, but I never went and picked his remains up.
But hear me out, dad's last wish is always were to just be thrown in a ditch somewhere.
So in a very roundabout way, he got what he wanted.
