So, you’re saying you’re _too good_ to have a piece of two-day old reheated pizza like I had? I’ve got half a Coke here next to me. ---

Be thankful you _have_ half a Coke. Some people can’t afford even half a coke! My kid sat on my glasses this weekend. ---

What? You yell at your kids to be responsible with their possessions and then think it’s okay to just leave your glasses lying around? Just signed up to see a Rodeo at the Calgary Stampede! ---

Don’t make me laugh! Everyone knows that the only rodeos and cowboys are in the UNITED STATES of AMERICA. Any place else just has pale imitations of the real thing. I just had a glass of Champagne from Napa valley. It’s very good. ---

Good champagne from California? Don’t make me laugh. Everyone knows that the only good champagne comes from France. That’s where champagne got its name, after all. There’s a chance of rain this afternoon and evening. We could use the moisture. ---

Oh, poor you. Did it ever occur to you that maybe the meetings are boring because of your presence? Some people would just love to sit in meetings! You don’t know how lucky you are. I think Lyft overcharged my husband. ---

You’ve got to let him fight his own battles if he’s ever going to learn to be able to stand up for himself. Stop totally emasculating the poor schlub, for chrissakes. I just had a mint candy. ---

Cretin! You know those “blood” mint candies are made by kids in third world countries forced to work in factories, rather than go to school! I cut my neighbor’s lawn as he has had some health issues. ---

You deny your health issued neighbor the benefits of fresh air, sunshine, and exercise, and the feeling of accomplishing something? You fiend. The bus I took home had wonderful air conditioning. ---

You wouldn’t need air conditioning if it weren’t for your gigantic, wasteful bus spewing out toxins and carbon, irrevocably changing the environment. I just yawned. ---
