ME: Joe, about halfway through the speech, I’m gonna wish you a happy birth--
BIDEN: IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!
ME: Joe.

Happy birthday to @JoeBiden, my brother and the best vice president anybody could have.

This play was all kinds of messed up and has a lot of messed up things happen in it. 9/10 would read again @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Okay, now I think I see the themes of toxic masculinity and how it destroys people and lives. Pops cannot win either way so he tries to take Caro down with him by taking his tie (manhood possibly?) and the ring @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

@fracklebug @GilGonzalezJr Ohhhhhh I get it now

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

@fracklebug @GilGonzalezJr Ohhhhhh okay

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Pops is adding some strange demands on his negotiation. Also love his comment on making a “deposit” in the bathroom. And yes Caro, you are a cog in the machine. @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Nice of Pops to advise Junior on good food choices and tap water and then vent all his anger and repressed past. An interesting transition to say the least. @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

This interaction between Pops and Church Lady turned out very differently than expected. Why they gotta do this? Also rip Pops (forgotten but not gone) @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Church lady is an amazing strong woman. A witch who knows magic and can read people like books? She and Mr. Chico need their own play. @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Mr. Chico sounds like an interesting person. We need a play about him fighting people instead of all this family problems and people being jerks. @GilGonzalezJr thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Oh Oswaldo. He doesn’t deserve such criticism and pain. But holy poop he should back it up and not try to steal Pop’s credit card for shady business @GilGonzalezJr #the272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Lulu is speaking fighting words. Aaaaaand Junior used reverse psychology(???) effectively. This is quite the predicament @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Wasn’t expecting Lulu to talk about fornicating on a water tower. Why though? You gotta have some standards Lulu. @GilGonzalezJr #thea273

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

@GilGonzalezJr Ohhh okay, so is the NYPD making things up to find Walter guilty of something so he won’t get compensation because of the white cop who shot him?

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

@GilGonzalezJr #thea272 there’s a lot going in this play and i just can’t

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Okay, so now I know why Pops is really bitter about life. His cop friends have a lot of tea on him and Pops has been coping in unhealthy ways after he had gotten shot by a racist @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

I would not want Pops or any of his cop friends to be stopping me. Of course they would be the type of people who think “doing the wrong thing to do the right thing” is a sound argument. @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

I feel like terrible/absent parents are gonna be a common theme in this play. Pops considers Lulu and Oswaldo more his family than Junior. Also, Lulu, yeah you stand up for yourself! @GilGonzalezJr #Thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Jeez, Pops like telling Oswaldo how terrible Junior is. Junior is just trying his best and Pops is salty about it all. He’s got a sucky past sure but that’s not a good excuse @GilGonzalezJr #thea272

[Anthony Velasquez @AVelas80]

Pops, if you don’t like the church lady, why do you want to get cookies from her? He has no appreciation for other people who try nice things or want to help @GilGonzalezJr #thea272
