[Bit 1]

So I love downtown Austin, you guys.

It's amazing.

I see the most wild shit.

Like the other week I saw a homeless boy band, you guys.

I'm serious.

You know, it was a group of homeless dudes

all singing a song together like a boy band,

like really fucking well.

So I walked up to him and I was like,

"Holy shit, it's the fentanyl five."

"Kick ass."

Then one of them corrected me.

He was like, "Actually, we're the crack street boys."

I was like, "Fair enough."

And he started heating up a spoon

to exactly 98 degrees.

I was like, "What the fuck?"

[Bit 2]

Then I got flashed by the same homeless lady

three times on the same night.

At first it was funny,

but by the third time I was pissed off

'cause we locked eyes and she just starts laughing at me.

She kind of sounded like Beavis.

She was like, "Yeah, yeah, got him again.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha."

Something about her laugh just triggered me.

So I saw a cop and I waved him over,

and I was like, "Excuse me, officer.

"You see that lady right there?

"She won't stop flashing me."

And I swear to God, you guys, he just looks at me and goes,

"Yeah, that's Denise."

And then he walked away.
