Welcome to our friendship boat, a loosely structured bonus Patreon episode of friendship

that also turns Gabe's joke tragedy into triumph.

Climb aboard, everybody.

Climb aboard our friendship boat.

Oh, God.

Friendship boat?

Like, come on.

I'm so mad about this but also my goodness why are you so mad about what are you mad about it is the middle of the night yeah it's 1131 okay we live different lives

why are you so mad about it I was in bed minding my own goddamn TikTok business, meaning I was sending them.

It's usually just you at this point.

I don't really.

I haven't checked my TikToks in like seven months.

Oh, I don't either.

My TikTok folder looks like my fucking emails.

I've got 7,000 unread emails right now.

Probably about the same with TikTok.

I finally told Becca, I'm like, stop sending me shit.

I literally will only look at it if you text it to me, and that's a 50-50 chance. The only reason I look at the ones that Gabe sends me, one, because they're the most accurate, and two, because it'll hurt her feelings if I don't look at her curated content for me. You know how like you really love when people are like,

oh, I love your food, whatever. Like I need people to like or laugh at my, it's like a scientific

process. It's curated for everybody that I know. You know what I mean? Like the ones that I send.

I think you do it the way a Midwestern boomer mom picks out Christmas gifts.

Oh, for sure. That's like the best way to do it. And I don't have to wrap shit. It's perfect. Okay. So here's the other thing. So it's the middle of the night. I'm like, we need to just friendship boat right now. And Gabe's like, we. I was like, I'll come. I'll do this, but I'm getting wine. so I poured myself. I want to say a nice glass, but I know that it's a half a bottle in this big ass glass. I love a big glass. It makes me feel fancier, but it's also like a little alcoholic of me. And it's this nice vionier that I haven't, I haven't tried it before, but I put an ice cube in it because I'm garbage. And my apologies if anybody hears me crunching because I'm eating these crunchy little crackers made of parmesan cheese.
