[woman] hello?
I was calling for the ad
that I saw there for a housesitter.
Yeah. Who's this?
Uh, my name is [bleep].
Hi [bleep] I'm cammie.
On a scale from one to ten,
how would you rate yourself in sexiness?
Wow. Ten-plus.
Ten?
I'm a big girl.
You got booty?
Oh, yeah.you rock.
Okay, uh, so just a couple more things.
I, um, just broke up with my boyfriend,
and he still lives in the apartment.
Uh-huh.
And so I'm just gonna need you to make sure
that he doesn't touch my stuff.no problem.
Yeah? Oh, cool. You could totally handle yourself?oh, yeah.
You know, he won't try to hurt you.
He might try to hump you.
If he doesn't have any respect for me,
I mean, I will respond with a punch.
Nice.
Sometimes if you punch him, he blows his wad,
but, I mean, that's not gonna affect you at all.
He's like a teddy bear, you know?
He's a horny, deranged,
sexual predator kind of teddy bear...
Oh, okay. Yeah.who's drunk all the time.
Would you mind doing
a little role-playing with me really quick?
Okay.
Um, his name's rocco, by the way.
So let's say you come in, and I've just gone to work,
so he's there.
Um, so I'm rocco. [Imitating man] who are you?
Um, cammie's housesitter.
Cammie's housesitter? I wanna hump you!
Well, I'm sorry, but, uh, no, thank you.
But cammie said I could grab your a*s.
She told me.
If you do touch me, we're gonna have a problem.
Well, I'm gonna run in cammie's room and piss on her radio.
Oh, hell, no.
You're not touching none of her stuff.
[Normal voice] okay, yeah. You did good with that.
That's really good.
My mom said she used to, at first,
think that I was a l*sbian,
and then she thought that I was a wh*re
because I'm always hanging around with dudes.
Nice. Is there any part of you that's a l*sbian?
No.
So if I came home--
I was a little tipsy one night,
and I just happened to want to hump,
no possibilities of that?
Uh, no.
Okay, one last question.
Let's say a huge black guy
comes pounding at my door to see me.
What do you do?
First, if you're home, I'm gonna ask you who it is,
see if you want me to open the door for him.
Okay, yeah, always let him in. You don't even have to ask.
Always?
Yeah. Always let him in.
Okay.
Okay, awesome [bleep]. I am going to call you back,
and hopefully when I see you, um,
I can grab your big boobs, and we'll work something out.
Oh, my gosh. Okay.
Okay. Thanks [bleep]. Bye.
Okay, bye.

[phone beeps]
hello?
[Woman] hello, is this [bleep]?
Yes.
Hi, I'm hadassah guberman
from "careers international" magazine.
I'm writing an article on painters,
on various artists, and I was given your name.
You're a portrait painter?
Well, I do paint portraits, among other things.
Have you always wanted to be an artist?
Yes, of course.
And you--where do you find your inspiration?
I'm guessing from your life.
Well, whatever is around me in the world.
Right. g*y.
What do you think went wrong in your childhood
that forced you to be creative as, say, a survival skill?
I don't think--
I think that's a very incorrect way
of looking at what makes an artist.
It's not a matter of something going wrong.
In some ways, it's a matter of something going right.
Why do you think you're so defensive?
I don't think I'm defensive.
But that was so defensive, that answer. That's funny.
Do you think that it's true
that most people are drawn to art
because they're too cowardly to go through with suicide?
People who create art?
Yeah, people who create so-called art.
No. I mean, you're making a presumption there
that is not true.
Well, I think writing really depends
on a series of presumptions.
Someone once said to me
three very simple words, which rang true--
never assume anything.
Oh, okay. Was the friend the one that hit you?
Who what?
That hit you.
Who hit me?
Did anybody say someone hit me?
I don't know. I always presume, like--
you're presuming.
You just said, "I always presume."
Okay, so when you were molested,
did you think to yourself,
"that's it. I'm gonna be a painter"?
Who ever said I was molested?
Nobody ever said that. Why did you say that?
You're right.
You're making some very--
you're right. It's important,
'cause I don't want to turn off my subject, you know?
Well, you're trying to write the story
by putting words into the conversation
that have no relevance.
How many times do you think that you need to be molested
before you can really be a great painter?
Is this a conversation about artists or molestation?
Exactly,
and that's what I'm thinking about titling the whole piece.
And your agenda is molestation, and--
but my agenda--
I'm really sorry. I have to end this conversation now
because you're trying to weave, uh, your interviewee
into your agenda without--
it's like putting a square p*nis
into a round peg.
A square what? What did you say?
Why? What did you think I said?
[Ripping sound]
[phone ringing]
shannon.
[Man] shannon?
Yes.
Name's birchum.
Uh-huh.
You running the army store?
Yeah.
You in the service yourself?
What--no.
No?nope.
How old are you, shannon?
I'm, uh, like, .
Just missed nam, didn't ya?yep, missed that.
Let me tell ya what you missed...
Yeah?
Hell on fire, my friend.
It was that bad?
It's been years. Feels like it was yesterday.really?
I close my eyes. I'm right back there.
No kidding.
Sitting in a bunker,
mortar rounds going off around me.
Smoking hash out of a human skull.
I once beat a mother to death with her own child.
Oh, come on.ain't nothing to laugh about.
No, I don't think it's funny. Let me tell you, i--
lost a lot of friends-- espinoza, johnson,
lieutenant snap, chuck crackle, major pop.
All good men. All strong men.
Wow.
Let me tell you about them vietcong.
They hid in caves-- very elaborate caves.
Ah.
Some would open into whole rooms--
places to dine, recreation areas, foosball.
It was all there.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
You want to trade some of your stuff for--
is that what you're thinking?
Yeah. I got some stuff
that's considered a little black-market--
some ears, some skulls, stuff like that.
I don't need any of that.
Don't need any of that?don't need any... [Laughing]
you put some of those v.c. Ears on ebay.
Believe me, there are some pretty wealthy asians
willing to spend some top dollar for that.
Really?oh, yeah.
Never heard of an ear necklace, huh?
No. That's what they-- they like those, huh?
Skull fanny pack?
The skull fanny pack?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
vag*na purse.
Change pouch made out of a human vag*na.
Wow!
Oh, yeah. That ain't the half of it.
That's hard to believe, but I guess, yeah,
like you said, that probably ain't the half of it, so...
No. It was macabre, my friend.
Got a walking stick
with a human foot on the end of it.
Oh!
No? Nostril pencil holder?
None of that for you, huh?
No.
Oh. Got a bong made out of a thigh bone.
Oh, my god.
You don't want to make an offer?
No, I think I'll pass on that.
Hey, that's some stuff, though, that, uh...
Yeah, it's a little gruesome. You guys buy beanie babies?
Beanie ba--nope.
Oh. Well, I didn't get those out of the cave.
My niece left them when she was visiting.
[Laughs]

That's something else. I mean, gosh, that's a hoot!
There's a lot of words that are similar,
and it's easy to confuse them,
and that's what happened here,
is that I heard the word "tea,"
and I thought the word "t-e-e," not "t-e-a."
Right.
And i-- I can't believe it still.
[Laughing]
well, I hope you have a good time--
hey, it's a good thing

Oh, that is a hoot.that really is a hoot.
You gotta explain it to my brother bob.
He's a little--
would someone like to tell me
what all this laughing's about?
I called a tearoom--
"t-e-a" room-- for a t-e-e time.
So you're telling me
it's a place that serves tea,
not a golf course.
