    I CAN’T be the only one who heard him say “… customer cervix”.
    😂😂😂

      😅 I heard it too, which made it even funnier being that he's gay. Like, I'm pretty sure most gay people aren't thinking about cervixes. 😊

      That's 100% why I repeated myself and said "customer service" again. I was like OOPS! 😄

      @welcometotheneighborhoodpod 😅 things happen and u saved it by seamlessly continuing and crushed every one of the jokes. Ur hilarious and I'm so glad I saw ur routine. I'll definitely be looking out for more of ur shows. Random, but ur absolutely adorable too. 🙂 Just had an idea, maybe a joke about a hooker being a "customer cervix"? 🤣

    I clicked for the wild ass thumbnail and stayed bc he had me SCREAMINGGGGGGGG from start to finish 😂😂☠️😂☠️☠️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 But as someone who lost their mom recently, and dealt with ending a horrifically abusive relationship, I fully, fully loved his confidence. He made me laugh and cry and laugh again. So much love ❤

    He's hysterical and super adorable. Someone I'd definitely want to be friends with. I'm really sorry about his mom passing. I hope he has continued success in the business.

      I just buried mine a couple of weeks ago and she passed peacefully and I hope yours did too! I pray she just passed while asleep! Mine got up that morning and went to the bathroom, got up pulled her pjs up and sat back down and went to sleep’ it was quite beautiful actually because I didn’t see it for myself I would not believe it but her hair was curly gray…and I watched it turn black!!!! By the time the funeral car arrived all the gray was completely gone and she had a slight smile on her face!!!! 😅😊❤😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇REALLY REAL! Thank you for reading this! Your mom is still with you and if you start to see dimes on the floor on the ground or wherever?…. It’s a sign that symbolizes she’s with you! Just watch!

    Beautiful storytelling, when he brought it all home with his mother's passing and the name spelling bit at the end, I laughed out loud and then cried remembering the absurdity of the sort of phone calls I had with bureaucrats amid my grief as I was putting my late brother's affairs in order a few years back.

    This isn't the point, but Jennifer means "white phantom" (it's a form of Guinevere) and Constantine means "constant, steadfast."

    As a black kid with a white Father "Sugar Daddy" assumptions happened years after the "serial killer" they thought they captured when we were driving through the south from OK. in the seventies (I was probably 7 or eight)
    For context: look up The Atlanta Killer. Ended up being a black man.

    YESSSS!!! I'm first generation. My first name is 10 letters and was made up by my mother. My last name is super easy, 4 letters, a common first name and super white(married name). Customer service people try gaslighting me into believing my last name is my first and that me and my government documents are lying.
