“I can at once refute the statement that the people of the West object to conservation of oil resources.

“I can barely forgive myself for the time when I negged Billy from my improv troupe onstage. He said, “I have a gift for you,” and my first instinct was to say, “No you don’t.” The scene died right then and there. See what happens when I try to nurture something?

But I also like to just chill with my friends and go and see movies and do normal things.”
