Escape rooms make me mad, and I don't know why.

You know what I mean when I say escape rooms, these puzzle rooms that are popping up all over the world. OK, the other crowd thought I meant panic rooms. And like that, rich people have in their house for when they get scared. That's not what I mean. But now that I'm talking it through, those make me mad to you know, just because you're rich, you don't deserve to live. If an intruder comes to your house, you should have to fight for your stuff just like everybody else.

You don't get to retreat. You have to fight for your things, your bathtubs, your blueberries, whatever you have. If you're rich, I don't know. That's how I picture it. Just smoking, eating antioxidants. I don't understand why anyone would pay to go to an escape room, I think for me the whole concept just hits too close to home. You know, I have depression and I work from home.

Every day is a goddamn puzzle for me to figure out how to escape from my house. I'm like, where are my keys, my pants, my motivation or any of them inside the Internet? Let me check that for seven hours. How do I get out of here? Oh, this is a backwards relationship we're in, you're giving me positive feedback for having depression, this is. The start of my alcoholic problem, I don't I don't understand Escapers, because they just feel like 3D puzzles, right, that you solve with friends, strangers, some combination.

Isn't that just what life is, though? Like what is life, if not an unrelenting series of 3-D puzzles that you have to constantly solve until you die every day? New puzzles, how to untangle these headphones, how to do taxes, how to open his goddamn pistachio. It's just puzzle after puzzle after puzzle forever. I don't like what they say about society. I think all these escape from say something about our restless souls. You know, so many people go to jobs, they feel like they can escape to earn money in a system none of us can escape to, then hand over that money for the experience of pretending to escape.

And OK, what? Yeah, maybe I did write that joke when I was off my antidepressants. You got me OK. Maybe I was inclined to think of life in a darker way at that time. But this is a comedy show. We obviously just want to keep it light. I think the point that I'm trying to make, obviously, just to keep it light, is are we all just prisoners in human bodies?

And the only real escape is death. That's it. Catch Smith in Comedians of the World Only on Netflix.
