1:48 AM / What if he gets hit by a train? What if we lose our jobs
and have to live in a cardboard box? What if the earth is completely

1:58 AM / What if he loses faith in everything? What if he runs away and joins a cult? What if he decides he’s really a Tea Party Republican?
2:12 AM / What if the creepy guy in 2G gets him hooked on meth? What if he gets into Disco? What if he gets a face tattoo? What if he decides he really hates college?
