[Bit 1]

I was at a party in Los Angeles recently, boo.
I was there with my friend,
and she's a Chinese immigrant lesbian.
And that's not important for the story,
but I just need you to know I'm a good person.

[Bit 2]

So we're at this party, really fancy party.
They had drink menus and everything.
And Ling Ling walks up to me in the middle of the party.
And she goes, "Hey, Davey."
She had an accent, but I'm not gonna do the accent, obviously.
She goes, "Hey, Davey, what's this drink on the menu?
A Negro knee?"
Jesus Christ, Ling Ling, lower your voice, first of all, all right?
It's called a Negroni, all right?
She goes, "Oh, Negroni.
Is that a drink for black people?"
No, dude, it's not a drink for black people.
That's Hennessy, and they don't have that at this party.
That's why it's such a quiet party, all right?
We don't name our drinks after the people that drink them.
You know what I mean?
Except for, like, white Zinfandel, white claw,
white Russians.
