It's such a drastic lifestyle change too, because people treat you so differently. Nobody likes attractive people, right? You assume their lives are easier, like there's no sympathy for pretty people at all, which is another thing you guys might not know about me is I have clinical depression and an anxiety disorder and you guys are just waiting for the punchline.

"I can't even hang myself because my jawline will cut the rope" I am on the floor lmao
I'm bout as Black as they come and I loved this guy. Laughing out loud after midnight at home.
This kid is definitely going places. The crowd seemed like they didn't know if they should laugh or not for a lot of his jokes. He was really refreshing and I laughed so many times. Give him a show Netflix!
"You guys ready to be offended?" Lmfao
He has lighting in a bottle, charisma, great timing, and funny jokes. I think 2 or 3 years he is gonna blow up !
