I remember watching this when he was first on and still today his shit moves me because of the delivery and how it speaks to things that affect me and us all. This is for all the women in the room who think men don't burn, that when it comes to heartbreak it's never our turn, it don't matter who or what is to blame because when it comes to the first week after a breakup alone always feels the same. - Rafael Casal
