    3. "Earlier in the day, before I started drinking, I watched a heartbreaking snippet on Facebook about a dying polar bear. It broke my heart. Later that night, we were out for my girlfriend’s birthday, and I had too much tequila. The next morning, she woke up and told me she had a weird email from the World Wildlife Fund. And I had a weird transaction in my bank account also from World Wildlife Fund.

    "I got drunk and adopted her a polar bear. The gift message read, 'Surprise bitch, here’s a polar bear.'"
