I can’t believe you’re making fun of people who don’t know how to speak French! I hate washing dishes. ---

Flying high on goof balls, you mean? He’s a menace to society. How many children have to die this time? Local news in LA is the worst in the country. ---

How hard is it not to turn the TV on, anyway? Read a book, take a walk, teach a disadvantaged kid to read, volunteer in your local soup kitchen. Jeez. I keep listening to Cheap Trick’s “Stop This Game”: [Stop This Game - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1OofNmnqZg) ---

I’m glad you get to be “comfy” while those around you are constantly considering gouging out their eyes to avoid seeing your fashion disaster. My dog has decided no place but the exact center of the bed is good enough, even if I happen to be lying in that spot. ---

I have cracked your secret code, and have reported you to the authorities. It’s sad that Matt “Guitar” Murphy, a member of the original Blues Brothers band, has died. ---

Your passivity is a gift to the cats but have you ever thought of growing a spine and taking care of yourself. Sometimes I have to open the doggy door for my regressing dog. ---

> [@boson](#): > > Sometimes I have to open the doggy door for my regressing dog. _“Regressing”?_ I’m glad to see that those nine years of college paid off for something other than making you 1999’s beer pong champion. This thread is okay. ---
