Yep. His Netflix special had me laughing so much. His delivery alone is pure gold.

"Box Office Poison" is one of the best things ever.

Man, Late Night Conan was so freaking great.

I’d say black but I don’t think they usually have checking accounts.  Asian?

Black dude. Check was always his mom's. $12.76

I also smudged in junior high school.

Lighting oil pots in the orange groves to keep them from freezing.

Worked all night and got excused from school since it was a local product.

$2 an hour. Big money back then, at least for me as a young guy.

Had a friend that worked stocking shelves at a grocery store. Said all the girls there fucked. I feel like we all screwed up.

i'm impressed/surprised at how many of us had jobs that paid under the table.

Because in California you have to go through the school district to get a work permit as a teenager. But a lot of places couldn't get a work permit because it's unsuitable for a teen.  Like we working at a liquor store.

As a freshman in HS I spent Spring Break doing a job with my dad (masonry). I dug ditches and mixed mud for 8 hours a day. That's when I knew I would go to college.

I'm sorry I screwed up your pizza order 27 years ago.

It's too late to say sorry.

A pizza delivered cold is a deeply cursed thing.  Which is why pizza delivery is a serious mans job.  This is a sacred trust we’re talking about here.  I say this is not child st1cks fault.

Installing sprinkler systems.  After the El Niño rains in '98, my grandmother - whose property was a half-acre, one half of which was wild canyon - asked me to upgrade her sprinkler system because her fire insurance was going to go up a ton without a new system.

Several of the neighbors were so impressed with the job my best friend and I did, they hired us to do the same for them. It was great; we ended up being employed for the entire summer, the money was good (great for teenagers, actually), and we could make our own hours, which meant we took extra-long lunch breaks at Home Depot every day because we both had a massive crush on the girl who worked the hot dog stand in the parking lot. I wonder if she still thinks of me the way I think of her. Probably not. 

To her, your justly another guy that stuffs a wiener in his mouth.

I’m of the age where I know what this is, but I never really had occasion to use one.

It wasn't that complicated, asshole.

If you could play Battleship, you could figure it out.
