- That's so real.

[Bit 1]

- So I don't believe in calling things white.

I think it's played out.

It's easy, but the concept of going to an escape room for fun

is the whitest shit I've ever heard of.

Like I didn't even know they existed

until I saw friends on Instagram

putting up pictures of themselves posing so proudly

like they just got back from war, you know?

They just posed like, "I successfully escaped the room."

And I've never seen anyone in one of these pictures

that wasn't white.

And I've actually never been to an escape room before,

but my parents have.

They actually spent 30 years in one.

It was called the Country of Ethiopia.

Very hard difficulty on this escape room.

Famine, lack of education, communist dictators.

But my dad said it was all worth it for the Instagram pic.

- Thank you.
