“I don’t know what the f**k was in the air or that there are a lot of new people in Denver or what the f**k was going on but I could not handle it today,” she said. “I just got off work and I’ve been f**king crying. Let me tell you about every single thing that’s happened to me today.
“I was wheeling the trash out and this scary a*s man says ‘You need help with that pretty mama?’ and I said ‘No, I’m good bro.’ to which he replied ‘Just let me know and I’ll come back later’ Like that’s not f**king terrifying at all.”
