Tim clarifies he's never gentrified anything, then tells the story of briefly living in Flatbush Brooklyn with a paranoid roommate who hid the garbage from rats and nibbled the same corner of toast every day, ending in a screaming fight over his security deposit.

In this bit6 moments
  • Tim lived for two months in Flatbush with a crazy woman who had no garbage can because she was terrified of rats.
  • The roommate would tie garbage bags to the kitchen door to keep rats out, convinced she'd seen one in the apartment.
  • Every day she took three bites from the northeastern corner of a piece of toast and put it back in the refrigerator—like a rat would do.
  • Tim and the roommate had a falling out; she wanted him to leave but he demanded his security deposit back.
  • She claimed that's not how security deposits work, but Tim insisted it was and forced her to return it.
  • Tim screamed at her in the drug store, calling her an animal to embarrass her as he left with the $750 check.
