Can you imagine a guy breaking into your car, and he steals your guitar case 'cause he thinks it's a guitar, and he gets it home and opens it up and there's a rake inside it, an electric toilet plunger and a dog skull? That actually happened.

I live in a kind of gay bubble. I live in a gay house, I drive a gay car. I eat gay food.
