Lettuce? You’re wasting your time and your garden space planting lettuce when you could be planting crops with more nutritional value, like kale and spinach and arugula? I’ve been reading about foods and their nutritional value. ---

Well, aren’t you quite the smarty pants? Show off much? We’re all going to die anyway, might as well enjoy what we can. I just came back from walking the dogs. ---

You meany, you made those dogs wait half a day to have fun. What next? Make them beg for their food? I just watched Ice skating. It is so beautiful to look at. ---

Enjoy it while you can. Thanks to global warming, the movie _Ice Pirates_ will soon be considered a brilliant prophetic masterpiece. I hope I get a space herpe. ---

Do you mean herpes, or is that some kind of snake reference? It’s common courtesy to define unusual terms, jerk. Our sons’ spring break ends today. ---

Yeah, probably because you were out partying and doing who-knows-what till all hours last night. I just finished my cancer treatment today, and have been proclaimed cancer-free!!! ---

They’re hot because of all the fungus and rot growing on them. Green is not an attractive color for toenails, and you probably need a spoon to clean out the jam between your toes. Hand out gas masks to those around you first. I hear you are banned in Japan. I’m taking the family to the circus tonight. ---

“I think its gonna hit 92”!?! Really??? Calling the grammar police! You mean “it’s” and not “its”! You mean “going too”, not “gonna”! And how about “hit”? Do you really need to use language that implies violence? My cat is sleeping on the couch. ---
