Tim details his chaotic Lyft ride with a driver who kept calling him "Papa," driving in circles unable to locate a Sprint store despite Ben giving directions.
- Lift drivers are mentally deficient and shouldn't have licenses because you're taking your life in your hands getting in one.
- Tim recalls a Twitter video about the chaos of getting an Uber while skating in a lift.
- Tim gets in a Lyft with a dead phone and MacBook to go to Sprint, driven by a guy in a bright red Chevy Cruze.
- The Chevy Cruze looks like somebody defecated a car onto the street, shaped like it just plopped down.
- Driver pulls up to a corner and calls Tim 'Papa,' then reveals there's no Sprint store at the location.
- Tim asks a random guy if he knows of a Sprint store; the guy says no and keeps walking.
- Driver suggests they drive around looking for the Sprint store instead of using the GPS address.
- Driver thinks the Sprint store might be inside a large parking garage, but Tim doesn't see any signs.
- Driver insists this is a shared pool ride and the location can't be changed; Tim argues he selected a direct route feature.
- Tim explains he can't walk around LA with a MacBook like a psychopath getting on random Wi-Fi to FaceTime for a new Lyft.
- It's Sunday at 7 PM and Sprint closes soon, but apparently nobody in this country wants to work or needs hours.
