- Aw, snap!
- The light switch works two ways, you know!
- …and a Diet Coke.
- No, dear, I don’t know where your car keys are. You know, if you would keep them in the same place all the time you wouldn’t have this problem. Mine? Yes, I know where my car keys are. They’re either in my pocket or on the counter in my bathroom. That’s the only 2 places they ever are. Right now they happen to be in my pocket. Yes, you can borrow them, but only if you put them back _in my hands_ when you are finished.

Phone’s for you.

Hey, I just drive.

[snide, half-muffled laugh that indicates I just thought of something hilariously funny I could interject as a comment on something you just said, if I didn’t mind getting smacked down for it, which I do, so I just kind of snort…]
