And now I'm here.

Doing one of these.

I'm gonna take a long time with these last couple,

Maybe I'll have a good time with this deportation.

Why doesn't David Dobrik have an accent?

Aw.

Why was David Dobrik evicted?

A couple times we got to that situation.

It's just a bunch of shenanigans around the house.

My roommates have sex really loud,

and I don't stop 'em, so it's kind of my fault, too.

What trick can David Dobrik do?

Thanks for asking.

I'm gonna show you.

she did this in an interview once, but I'm gonna one-up it.

Or I won't be able to get it.

Here we go.
