[Bit 1]

All right, so my girlfriend's dad's dead.
Fine, don't clap.
No, he died like before I met her.
and recently she told me, "I think my father sent you to me."
And I said, "Babe, I had no idea you were schizophrenic."

[Bit 2]

Which I'll admit isn't a great thing to say to your beautiful girlfriend,
but do you guys know what the worst thing I could have said is?
"Yeah, he did."
I was wondering what that energy was.
"It was your dead father sending me to you.
I am your gift."
And then just like proceed to use that in our relationship.
Like, "Hang on, he's coming through."
He's saying, "I'm right and you're wrong?"
"Well, you think your dad would have your back."
Hold on, he's coming through again.
I'm getting something. Shut up. Shut the fuck up.
I don't know why your dad's saying this.
He's saying we should invite another woman into the bedroom.
