[My doctor] said, ‘Pam, I want to tell you about an epidemic that’s prevalent in Beverly Hills right now. It’s a buildup of cocaine residue around the cervix and in the vagina. You have it. Are you doing drugs? […] Is your partner putting cocaine on his penis to sustain his erection?’
‘No,’ I said, ‘not that I know of. It’s not like he has a pile of cocaine next to the bed and he dips his penis in it before we have sex.’ I had a nauseating flash of one of Richard’s famous lines: Even my dick has a cocaine jones.
‘Are you sure he isn’t doing it in the bathroom before he comes to bed?’ the doctor asked.
‘That’s a possibility,’ I said. ‘You know, I am dating Richard Pryor.’
‘Oh, my God,’ he said. ‘We have a serious problem here. If he’s not putting it on his skin directly, then it’s worse because the coke is in his seminal fluid.’

They see me rollin’/ they hatin’/ they tryin’ to catch me holding axes…
Does this ever happen to you - like, I’ll sit in front of my computer to do some important work, and then I’ll just think ‘man. I wonder if Home Alone 2 made more money than Home Alone 1. I gotta look into this, now. Sorry important work, something more pressing has come up.’
