started dancing on a table until it broke

She got so drunk one night that she

started dancing on a table until it broke

and everyone saw up her skirt when

she fell and you know what she said?

She said it was too hot to wear underwear

and I just hated her for that.

Cause that was the last fourth of July

that we actually spent as a family

before my dad shot himself.

But before I came here,

I was doing stuff that was way worse

than anything that my mom ever did.

So now I just feel sorry

for her, you know?

My whole family saw up my skirt

and the whole internet, too.

My whole family saw up my skirt

and the whole internet, too.

See, these pictures... they

were supposed to be private,

but I guess I should have thought about

that before I dumped my boyfriend

if I didn't want him to sell

them to some revenge porn site.

But it's okay because

I'm internet famous now.

Guess that's what I get for trusting

a white guy with Chinese tattoos.

Damn, Jennifer. You'd make

a rad Buddhist monk.

Damn, Jennifer. You'd make

a rad Buddhist monk.

Their whole thing is that

life is suffering, too.

What the hell do they

know about suffering?

They live their whole

goddamn lives on a mountain.

And everybody loves the Dalai Lama

because he says stupid stuff like,

- Being mean is bad and

being nice is good.

Wonder if he'd be so chill if he

woke up in the middle of the night

with his stepdad on top of him.

You guys, didn't that feel good?

Just kind of get that out...

to be heard.

Alright, ladies. What time is it? You know

what time it is. Stand up. Here we go. Loud.

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Ah!

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Ah!

Thanks, ladies. Have a great night. Get

some rest. We'll see y'all tomorrow.

What's up, Hannah?

She's lying, you know?

Who's lying?

Crystal. About her mom.

I heard them talking on the phone

yesterday. They're like best friends.

I heard them talking on the phone

yesterday. They're like best friends.

She just wants people to

feel bad for her.

But I bet her mom never invited dealers

over to her house or locked her in a closet

while they had sex

and used together.

Oh, or threaten to commit suicide if

she didn't text her back right away.

Or tried to take her

away from here?

Please don't stay mad

at Crystal, though.

Please don't stay mad

at Crystal, though.

Sometimes doing the right thing for

a friend means doing something

you know they won't like. She only

told us because she cares about you.

And hurting yourself to cope, it's just

going to leave you with more scars.

We're here for you, babe.

Forget me....

Forget me....

Forget me....

Forget me....

By the water...

By the water...

You left me.

You left me.

Hey! You got a

cigarette I can bum?

Um... no, sorry.

You staying here with anyone?

Just waiting for a friend.

Yeah. Me, too.

Yeah. Me, too.

Hey, you, uh...

you got any change?

I might downstairs. Wanna hang out and get high

and watch T.V. or something? I know the chef.

- Sure.

- Okay. Cool.

It's just down here.

What's cookin', good lookin'?

Who the f*** is she?

My new friend. She wants

to party with us.

I'm wanting to have a nice evening in

and you bring some jailbait b*tch.

Do you... do you want me to go?

No, no. You're good. Come on, where's my

manners? Where's my... come on, sit down.

- No, I'm good. Really.

- No, you're good. It's fine.

- Sorry. This is my supper?

- Yeah.

This is a buffalo chicken salad.

I told you get me caesar.

So take the chicken off. I'll...

I'll eat it if you won't.

So take the chicken off. I'll...

I'll eat it if you won't.

It's the f***ing principle of the thing.

You know I'm hypoglycemic

and I'd like you to give

me some support.

Well, you work in a restaurant.

Why don't you just make your own?

Do you think I eat the

sh*t that I cook?

You know how much glucose is

in buffalo fried chicken?

No.

I saw this on Doctor Oz. She's smarter than

a f***ing T.V. doctor now, right? Huh?

And where's my change? I gave

you a f***ing ten!

Ah!

- Where you going, peach fuzz?

- No, I have to go.

No. You're not going nowhere. You

and that junkie are collateral.

No! You better back

the f*** off, a**hole.

No! You better back

the f*** off, a**hole.

Oh, yeah? You got a dirty mouth.

That's okay. I got something

dirty to choke it with.

F*** you and f***

your chicken and...

Ah!

F*** Doctor Oz!

- Oh! New record!

- How long was that?

Uh... two minutes,

three seconds.

Uh... two minutes,

three seconds.

- What? No. I can do better.

- Really?

- Yeah. Let's go again.

- One, two, three, go!

Don't worry. I won't

tell anybody.

Don't worry. I won't

tell anybody.

Hi, Betsy Moo.

Was a cool night in July when

she first appeared to him.

He put his head down, down on the pillow

and came face to face with her grin.

And she said, Run. You can run from the

moon to the sun. From the night into the day.

And she said, Run. You can run from the

moon to the sun. From the night into the day.

Oh, run sleeping one till the morning

comes but you'll never get away...

Ah!

Ah!

And night after night after night that

followed he was running from her sight.

And she'd say, Run, you can run from the moon

to the sun, from the night into the day...

- Damn. Fat, dumb, and clumsy.

- Damn. Fat, dumb, and clumsy.

No wonder he blew

his brains out.

Oh!

Okay, so there was this pony who

went to the county fair, right?

Okay, so there was this pony who

went to the county fair, right?

And he saw this guy selling apples, so he walked

up to the guy and asked him for an apple.

And the guy said, I'm sorry. I

can't hear you. Can you speak up?

And the pony said, Oh, I can't.

I'm a little horse.

You know, because the horse,

I mean, the pony...

he wasn't like a little hoarse,

he was literally a little horse.

That's the best you got?

Ooo... Ooo,

Ooo... Ooo... Ooo...

Ooo... Ooo,

Ooo... Ooo... Ooo...

Ooo... Ooo,

Ooo... Ooo... Ooo...

Ooo... Ooo,

Ooo... Ooo... Ooo...

- Hey.

- Hey. You think she'll like this one?

They say that blue evokes calmness

and serenity. What do you think?

They say that blue evokes calmness

and serenity. What do you think?

I, um... I have a flight in three hours.

I'm going to go back to bed.

I blamed Hannah for the

situation she found herself in.

I'm her father, goddamn it.

I'm supposed to protect her.

I'm supposed to love her unconditionally

when she needed me most. I shamed her.

- Jake. Feeling sorry for yourself isn't going to help her...

- And you know...

You know what I said to her when it all

happened? When all the problems started?

I said she acted just

like her mother.

I said she acted just

like her mother.

Well, she did.

Don't you have a plane to catch?

Now I'm a stepmother,

a wife, and a therapist.

Daddy, what

do you think? Am I pretty?

You're my masterpiece.

You're my masterpiece.

Joey Curtis

George Curtis (April 9, 1925 – May 13, 2004) was a professional boxer, referee and business owner who was licensed to officiate bouts in Las Vegas, Nevada. Curtis, who had an undistinguished career as a boxer, lived in Las Vegas for thirty years. There, he established the Curtis Construction Company, which he owned until May 2003. As a boxing referee, Curtis was known for taking boxer's safety into consideration first. He refereed a number of world title fights, and he worked a number of non-title fights over the years. Curtis is best remembered, however, for two specific fights: On June 26, 1981, at Las Vegas, Lupe Pintor was defending his WBC world Bantamweight championship against Jovito Rengifo, who was attempting to become Peru's first world boxing champion. Rengifo was leading on all scorecards going into the seventh round, but he absorbed dangerous punches during the course of that round. Curtis stopped the fight, giving Pintor a seventh round technical knockout win. The fight's crowd, which in Las Vegas is filled usually with pro-Mexican fans, booed Curtis for his decision to stop the fight. On December 10, 1982, he was chosen to referee the WBA world Heavyweight championship bout between champion Mike Weaver and challenger Michael Dokes. Dokes had Weaver against the ropes and was landing a combination when Curtis stepped in and stopped the fight. Weaver had already suffered a knockdown about twenty seconds before, but many fans and critics felt that Curtis acted too quickly by stopping the bout after only 63 seconds of fighting. Neither a standing eight count nor a three knockdown rule was in effect. The WBA investigated the fight, and during the investigation, it was revealed that Curtis had been told by the Nevada Athletic Commission to be mindful of the condition of the fighters after the November 18 death of Duk Koo Kim as the result of a fight with Ray Mancini in Las Vegas on November 13. Fearful of another tragedy, Curtis stopped the fight to prevent Weaver from further punishment. On May 20, 1983, Dokes and Weaver held a rematch, with Dokes retaining the title with a fifteen-round draw. In June 2003, Curtis sold his company to a contractor whose license was revoked a month earlier for signing contracts and not finishing work, which resulted in complaints with the state board. Joey Curtis died after a sudden illness at Saint Rose Hospital in Las Vegas. more…
