Tim sets up a long story about his early 20s in Long Island, a bar called Duggan's, his friend Joe dancing gracefully despite his weight, and first encountering the woman he nicknames Blagojevich after the corrupt Illinois governor.

In this bit6 moments
  • Tim recalls Duggan's Bar in East Meadow on Long Island, where he and friends met a woman with a stripper-like quality dancing on the bar.
  • His friend Joe, nearly 300 pounds, got on the bar and danced with the grace of a figure skater, almost falling but moving gracefully despite being hammered.
  • The woman dancing on the bar pointed at Joe and asked Tim 'who's this fat [expletive]' when she came over to him.
  • Levittown, Long Island was the first suburb in the country with post-World War II promise, but is now mostly flea markets and heroin.
  • Tim describes visiting a friend's house in Levittown where the dad installed a fake wood Peugeot floor because people could spill things on it during fistfights without damaging it.
  • The friend claimed his dad's $500 fake wood floor raised the house value by fifty thousand dollars, which Tim finds infuriating.
