Transcript
Typical. I see the same costumes every year. Nice Wakanda forever. Wow. That Freddy Krueger mask looks very realistic. It's not a rank? I am so sorry. I'm sorry. Oh, good, a clown. Come on, bro. You've been there all year. The Joker. Which one's better? Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, or Jared Leto? Batman or Superman? Lame. Marvel characters are way better than DC characters. Oh shit. Captain Clark, now that's clever. You dressed up as LeBron James with seven rings on? Now that's scary for the Jordan fans. Hey tier, buddy. Are you supposed to be Yoda? Oh, Grokku? Sorry. I don't keep up with the latest version of Star Wars. Get a load of this guy. Who am I? Yes. Then I hit him with a service razor in the city. Then I hit him with a spice ball. You ain't even gotta be a barber to know who this is.
