hand out work

When you hear this phrase, it means drop everything you're doing because we about to start the prank calls and the MF work is about to given out to anyone and everyone. Prank calls are usually the move for capping off the night. We roll out our best two callers, Henry and Shea, and then we also have York but he's just a filler, you don't really want him running the show....then again you never really want a tard fam member running anything. You know it's about to get epic when the niggas on the other end start yelling because at that point they're just asking for it. Once we get into a back and forth, you already know we coming out on top.
