The reason I've never had a full-blown threesome before,

so I'm gonna say underrated

because I'm open to many things in life,

and threesomes are one thing that hopefully I will try

before I kick the bucket.

Two ladies would be cool.

A guy and a girl would also be cool.

I think with a guy and a girl, it would have to be

one of my very close friends which would be cool

because then we would have that experience together forever.

That's kinda like wedding speech vibe, you know?

It's like, Ah yeah, I remember when

me and Matt got that threesome.

You know, it's cute, it's like a bonding thing

between two men, and the woman, too.

Perhaps the woman is a good friend as well,

so she could give a speech as well.

(drum roll)

Underwear is underrated.

It helps me in many different ways.

Actually I ran out the other day,

got a new pair, a fresh new batch.

I don't know, I wipe my ass well,

I'm not one of those guys that wipes a couple times

and then just doesn't...

I take a look at the paper,

I look at the shit in the toilet, too.

You make sure it's clean,

but it's never gonna be all gone

until you take a shower.

That's what underwear is there for.

(drum roll)

Overrated.

I've tried it, I use it sometimes,

but my band mates use it a lot.

And you know what Yelp does?

It steers you away from the good place

that you may accidentally discover

to this fucking shithole

that other dickheads have already been to.

Fuck it, no, no good, no good.

Driving up from Montreal, somebody in the van being like,

Oh, well, in like 60 miles, there's this nice little cafe.

You're kidding me, come on, that's ridiculous, so...

No. Yelp is no good.

No.

(drum roll)

I think if it's like a true goth girl,

like sketchy mall goth, none of that hipster goth bullshit,

then it's really good.

But on a hip, young mamasita, go fuck yourself.

So I would say underrated on the goth,

overrated on the dipshit.

(drum roll)

See, this is the problem with wasabi

is that sometimes you get bullshit wasabi,

especially in New York, and bullshit ginger,

a lot of sushi restaurants where people are still like,

Oh my god, so spicy.

But it's not fucking spicy.

So I would say overrated unless you're getting the OG kush.

(drum roll)

Overrated, my friend.

I absolutely hate that shit.

I hate it so much,

especially sometimes you play at music festivals,

and they're like, I know what this band would like.

They would like an assortment of

different, weird, hoppy microbrews.

Are you fucking kidding me?

It's like eating a full fucking meal,

drinking one of those beers.

It tastes weird.

I know that people are all about...

For me, it's alcohol and for me,

I think it's called binge alcoholism

where I'm drinking so that I can get drunk,

I'm not drinking so I can taste some weird crap,

so overrated.

Very overrated.

Fuck that shit.

(drum roll)

Underrated, my friend.

Very, very underrated.

I was talking to my two friends the other day,

they fly all the time,

they say, Oh, the production company buys the flights.

And you know what, I pull out my Platinum Medallion card,

look at them... Jokers.

I get free bags, I get upgrades, free snacks,

free access to the fast line,

I'm living like a king.

And the greatest thing is, for me, look at me,

kind of a little bit of a bum,

bum chic style thing going on,

you go up to the counter and the woman's like,

Oh, I'm sorry, this is for Sky members only.

And then you whip the card out

and you're like, Look.

I am a Sky member.

You know? That's the most gratifying feeling for me,

being like I know I look like a homeless guy

but I'm actually a pimp.
