John Boyega documents the agony of a chatty Uber driver
Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste

John Boyega has established himself as an incredibly down-to-earth celebrity—the kind who is forced to wash the dishes after refusing to tell his family any Force Awakens spoilers. So when he found himself riding with a particularly chatty Uber driver, he decided to document the relatable experience on Snapchat. The videos were then collected on the Tumblr John Boyega Snaps and complied into one place by YouTube user Snap Tadka:

The driver doesn’t seem to realize he’s transporting a celebrity. Or, at the very least, he’s less interested in asking Boyega about his life than he is sharing his own thoughts on culture, politics, and relationships. Boyega is left alternately bemused, bored, and vaguely offended. But by the time they’re delving into the sordid history of the driver’s first marriage (to a woman 14 years younger than him), it’s clear that Boyega is in deep.
