I hate videos. I hate when someone sends you something funny and you’re curious, so you have to pause Spotify or Pandora or iheartradio listening to Ryan Seacrest in the morning (don’t judge, I only started doing that when I moved to Orange County, it’s like a prerequisite for living here), and turn your sound…

Free Therapy: Good/Bad
