Before I had a girlfriend, I had no STANDARD for how I should be treated as a human being. You could do ANYTHING to me! [...] And now, when I'm not with my girlfriend, you could still do anything to me, I will tolerate any treatment. Like, I travel alone sometimes, y'know? And I'll put up with anything. Like, I'll book a ticket on some garbage airline, y'know, I don't wanna name an actual airline so let's just make one up, let's call it, like, "Delta Airlines". So I book a ticket on Delta Airlines. And I'll show up at the airport, and I'll go: "Can I go on the plane now, please?" And they go: "No! It's delayed nine hours. (spits)" And I go: "O-kay!" And then I go to the bathroom. And then I come outta the bathroom. And I go: "Any updates?" And they go: "Yeah! We took off while you were in the bathroom! Because we HATE you! Now take this meal voucher that doesn't work, go, fetch!" And I go: "O-kay!" And I go over to the Wolfgang Puck express, and I go: "Can I have a sandwich please?" And they go: "NO!" And I go: "O-kay!" And they go: "You're a little fat girl, aren't you?" And I go: "Nooo..." And they go: "SAY IT!" And I go: "I'm a little fat girl!" And then I'll go over to the Delta Helpdesk — which is an oxymoron — and I go: "Can I please go home on an airplane?" And they go: "No! In fact, we're gonna frame you for murder! And you're gonna go to jail for thirty years!" And I go: "Why are you doing this to me?!" And they go: "(sings) Because we're Delta Airlines! And life is a fucking nightmare!" But with my girlfriend, she would just be like: "Let's see if SouthWest has any flights." So it's better.

"...And the bear killed every last one of them. Except for Claude Huggins, who hid under the corpse of his wife until the bear left. Too scared to leave, he founded a town in the very spot of the mauling, on top of her skeleton, and called it 'Hugginsville'. In 1847, a wandering pack of teenage bullies forced him to rename it 'Two Farts'. After they left, he was too scared to change it all the way back. Thus Teufort was born."
