Quotes[]

Jessie: "You know, I'm getting a lot of judgement for the pills and shit but they're the only thing keeping my brain in one piece. You don't know my situation, how hard I work to succeed, and you won't shut the fuck up about the one thing that lets me juggle that stuff without blowing my brains out"

Zack: "Bu-"

Jessie: "And of course here's Zack Morris, the world's biggest cunt-for-brains, about to tell me some bullshit about how I should 'take it easy', 'enjoy my youth'! I don't want to be some fucking asshole working at McDonalds until I die, I want to achieve something! You can fail at life all you want, but real life isn't some shitty sitcom where my life just magically works out, housing prices are through the roof and I can't waste my time like you do, goddamn loser"
