Tim praises the specific, innate stupidity of Long Island people using a bricklayer friend's comment about bricks as an example, then describes the dark ritual of Long Islanders waiting for a parent to die of cancer so they can inherit the house and complain about taxes.

In this bit9 moments
  • Long Island people have a level of stupidity so innate to them that trying to educate them would destroy them completely.
  • Tim's friend points out a few misaligned bricks on an otherwise beautiful house, unable to see past the minor flaw.
  • Tim took Ben to Long Island and he immediately understood the culture after seeing a custom monster truck Chevy Suburban.
  • Long Island people don't give a shit, which is what the city lacks—a genuine lack of caring about being reasonable.
  • Dallas is set up for people who've made it; everyone there is just eating steak and looking forward to their next meal.
  • Long Island kids inherit their parents' musical tastes—17-year-olds liking Billy Joel instead of finding something their parents would disapprove of.
  • People on Long Island get a house when their mother shows signs of cancer, then they wait for her to die instead of taking her to a doctor.
  • While the mother's body is still warm, the 40-year-old inheritor immediately complains about the taxes on the house they just inherited without ever having worked.
  • That's how Long Island people get their houses—waiting for their mother to croak so they can inherit.
