Sending a Pop Star Flowers

And it's different. Like I always say, if I won the lottery— yeah, if I won $800 million in the lottery— yeah, that's when I'd really do the vlog. Um, oh, we were pitching, we were pitching back and forth. Oh my God, this is so fucking dumb. My roommate Alex has been like— my roommate Alex says some really weird things sometimes. Yeah, he had, I think, arguably the worst vlog idea I've ever heard in my life. And like, he gets pretty sensitive when I, when I like, when I, when I like give him shit for the things he says. Yeah, this is— he said this deadass. He's like— I was like, I've never gotten a shot like in space. Like, you know, like they'll send weather balloons into space and you'll maybe see the curvature of the Earth like a little bit. So I'm like, what's something funny I could send into space? And I was like, Natalie's underwear. Like that. That was like my stupid idea. I was like, but what's the reasoning for sending Natalie's underwear to space? Like, there really isn't a reason. And then he goes, he goes, why don't you blindfold Ilya and send him to space? And I'm like, excuse me, I can't blindfold Ilya and send him to Burbank. Like, that's the craziest thing I've ever heard. And I go, how the fuck would I get to space? Like, this is an easy thing to like go to space. Like, they don't have flights leaving. How am I going to go to space? He's like, and then he got defensive. This is when I like backed off and he was like, I don't fucking know. Like, you've done crazy things before. I don't think you understand, like, what I'm capable of and what I'm not capable of, but I definitely can't send anyone to space.
