Eavesdropper

So are you saying that a tubeworm is as significant to the economy as Barack Obama?
-Yeah, I guess so.

When you fry someone named J4, the juice will flow out of them.
-Om nom.

Eavesdropping can get you some interesting information, a laugh, even insight into someone's soul, but aside from the fact that it is wrong, it can also get you scarred for life. There's a tempt, like a string pulling us towards those keyholes of locked doors and heating vents into our neighbors' apartment. On the other side of that door, you never know what you are going to find. Maybe you'll hear that secret you've been aching to hear, but maybe there's a murderer just a few feet away, stabbing your friend to death. Maybe, maybe, maybe you'll hear someone opening their mouth and spitting out sadness. It's a toss up, like gambling, and neither ends well.
