Meade

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the tragedy-comedy of my life! I'm Meade, and let me tell you, being a 43-year-old man-child living with your dad is the new American Dream. Who needs a career when you can have a part-time job and a full-time Netflix subscription?

Rick

A part-time job? What do you do, Meade? Stand in front of a store and shout, 'I’m available for work... just not today?'

d

Meade

Exactly, Rick! But hey, who needs a job when I have my beliefs? I mean, I once quit an Amazon job on the first day because I saw a Black Lives Matter poster! Can you believe it? I thought I was working for the 'Amazonia' rainforest!

p

Rick

You quit a job because of a poster? What are you, a toddler? Next, you'll tell me you threw a tantrum in the cereal aisle because they didn't have your favorite brand!

d

Meade

Speaking of tantrums, have you ever seen a grown man cry over a statue? That was me during the 'Statue Incident.' I was out there advocating for history, and some guy got in my face, shouting at me! I thought I was going to lose my lunch—and my dignity!

p

Rick

So you're telling me you just stood there, sobbing like a baby while trying to 'defend history'? What were you defending, exactly? A statue that was made before they invented indoor plumbing?

d

Meade

Hey, at least I have my faith! I believe God is like a magic genie! You just rub the lamp, and boom—instant lottery win! Except my lottery ticket only wins 'stay-at-home son of the year!'

p

Rick

So, what’s next for you, Meade? A reality show called 'The Chronicles of Meade,' featuring your next big adventure: trying to convince a woman to date you? Good luck with that!

d

Meade

Oh, you know it! And if that doesn’t work out, there’s always DoorDash to save the day! Friends, thank you for joining my journey of self-discovery, or as I call it, 'existential crisis with fries!' Goodnight!
