Tim talks about having no family home to retreat to during the pandemic, dark jokes about dying alone with a young hookup, and the idea that some pandemic restaurant closures were deserved.
- Tim describes dark pandemic thoughts about dying alone without anyone to sit by his bedside.
- When he asks guys in their early twenties to keep him company while dying, they immediately ask if they're in his will.
- Career as a measure of worth flips depending on circumstances — first thing you want when there are no opportunities, last thing when you're actually dying.
- His 24-year-old opener complained that no one's fucking anymore and bars closed, claiming he'd die alone.
- Restaurants closing during COVID gave shitty burger joints an excuse to shut down forever.
- Tim celebrates when bad restaurants die — he didn't need to eat at places with horrible brunch anyway.
- He hopes struggling restaurant owners realized their lives shouldn't be dedicated to sriracha aioli and stay gone.
