Hitler? The holocaust-espousing, invade Russia-in-the-winter, take-over-the-world madman - that Hitler? What did you drink with your Wheaties this morning?

The family is going to Disneyland next week.

(You get the baseball comment too.)

I don’t know what planet you’re living on, but from where I sit we call it the “United” States for a reason.

We’re still going to Disneyland.

Pix…? Are you referring to Pixels? As in your shitty camera and it’s heavily pixelated photos? No thanks.

I don’t think Tiger will win the Masters this year.

If he was a _white_ drug-abusing philanderer who can’t play golf any more you wouldn’t say that.

I am having a nostaglic session re-watching _Glee_.

Yup, and I’m having a nostalgic session of “sharp stick to the eye”.

Do you know there’s over 50,000 shades of white?

Flowers!? People are starving and you’re looking at pretty flowers. You should be growing wheat and rice. Selfish.

I think I’ll barbecue some ribs for dinner.

Don’t you know how much air pollution barbecuing causes? You should eat raw food only.
