I always wanna start conversations that way, just get right to the talking-let’s talk about some shit. It’s always disappointing to me when people talk about the weather, cause that means you really didn’t wanna talk about anything. And ya’ know I was in my elevator today, I got in my elevator and one of my neighbors got on, I don’t know his name, I’ll die not knowing his name, but uh we’re on the elevator so we look at each other and there’s that moment, there’s always that moment where like maybe something could happen; there’s a little potential in that moment. And you wait and you go ehhhh, it’s cold. Aw fuck, nothing happened. Like you just, ya’ just cop out and you just say meaningless shit. You have a competition of how stupid you can be, “Aw, I can’t believe 8 months ago it was 50 degrees out.” But what if you didn’t do that, what if you didn’t cop out, what if you just let the moment linger, don’t go to the weather and just maybe you could have a real moment…you just stand there and look at each other, “I haven’t talked to my dad in 8 years.
