Tim reads an Ethos life insurance ad that drifts into a long dark joke about a 'completely healthy' friend who avoids a string of near-misses only to inexplicably shoot himself in the office.

In this bit4 moments
  • Tim sets up a story about a completely healthy guy with inexplicably bad luck to scare people into getting life insurance.
  • The story unfolds like a Final Destination scenario: safe drive, functioning elevator, careful handling of hot coffee, nothing catastrophic happens.
  • Without warning or explanation, the man pulls a gun and shoots himself in the middle of the office, staring at a temp he didn't know.
  • The craziest part: no one knows how he got the gun, and he likely didn't have life insurance anyway because suicides typically aren't covered.
