"Ugh, Marthew, I feel terrible."
"Me, too, Streeven. Last night was pretty crazy, even for New Year's Eve."
"Morning, guys! How are you two feeling today?"
"Terrible. I don't even remember what happened last night."
"Well, you're in luck! I had my Pentax camera with me to capture all the action."
"Oh … oh, no. No."
"Yup!"
"Jaremy, please don't make me look at - "
"Here you are at the playground before they kicked us out."
"Ugh."
"And Marthew, here's a great shot of you at your ex-girlfriend's doorstep. Do you remember when we decided to crash her NYE party? She was pretty upset that you were only wearing a paper plate. Oh, here's a pic of that."
"This is a nightmare."
"Let us not forget our visit to the truck stop! Look!"
"I'm going back to bed."
