“I show up and they’re like you say this and you say that, and it’s all very funny and good. And then I walk out, and there’s like two guys in overalls with like hammers that are like ‘don’t you tell nobody nothing about this, Charlie. I swear to god we’re gonna get your knee caps. We’re gonna break your neck!'”
