We’ve moved from denial to acceptance in less than a minute. ICYMI: The story BuzzFeed, The New York Times and more didn’t want to publish I mean, sure he was shouting, but he’s a loud guy, okay ? “Because you are like, “I AM NOT SHOUTING!”Ĭarlson then tells me how he is the loudest person in the restaurant. That’s why this is funny,” I say laughing nervously.
