Seems Like A Ripoff.

College guy #1: So, I walk into Sex World and I see this poster on the wall of this girl I went to middle school with!
College guy #2: The one you made fun of?
College guy #1: Yeah… the one I made fun of. So, I walk up to the desk and ask, “Do you know her?” and the guy goes, “Yeah, she works here.” She has a tattoo that says “cumdumpster.”
[more talking about Sex World]
College girl: So, wait, they have actual women there?
College guy #1: Yeah, in booths, I think for like a quarter!
College guy #2: I don’t think a quarter would get you an actual service, dude.
College guy #1: Yeah, I think a quarter’s like 15 seconds or something.
College guy #2: So, you’ve gotta put a couple bucks in.
College girl: Oh, that’s kind of depressing… you’ve almost gotta do some prep work before you get in there!
