Did anyone ask you? You just always have to give your opinion about something, don’t you?

I’m going to try to sleep in over the weekend.

That’s what those blackout bourbon binges’ll do to ya. If you live alone, have someone call on you.  
I have a popcorn maker.

Uhhh… look at Rockefeller right here… _“la di daaah… I can make my own popcorn whenever I want”._ Keep stepping on the toes of the proletariat, see what that gets you when the revolution comes, Mister Moneybags.

Today is Austria’s national day.

Big whoop. I bet you and Arnold are getting drunk together separately.

Speaking of that, it’s almost 11am and time for beer.

Wow, you actually waited until 11am today, that’s quite an improvement for you.

I’ve had a headache off and on for a few days, I think I’m coming down with something.

I experienced a headache too. Then I finished reading your post.

Of all the Star Trek races I think I find Vulcans most appealing.

A misanthrope, huh? Did someone hurt you feelings once, did they? Did someone look at your sweater and giggle. You poor poor soul.

I had to change my dentist appointment as I’ll be out of town.

How selfish of you. The dentist was probably counting on your fee to make a down-payment on that new yacht he’s buying. You should have rescheduled your trip.

I can’t wait til tomorrow morning. My buddy’s picking me up at four-thirty to go on that hunting trip we’ve been planning for months. Hope the wife packed my gear properly.

Murderer of innocent animals! Sneaking out at 4:30 am to do it, too. Shame!

My weekend is pretty clear, so I’ll be enjoying some big college games on Saturday.

And some of us have to work this weekend. Go ahead, rub it in some more if makes you feel better, even if it is at other people’s expense.  
Should I buy a teddy bear for my nephew’s third birthday?

Sure, scare him early to develop those deep phobias. Are they out of clown posters?

We are having friends over on Friday and I am putting my shopping list together. I am making Beef Wellington, so may need to take out a loan, lol.

It’s your kind of reckless, self-indulgent, spendthrift ways that are slowly bankrupting this once-great republic.

I’m not sure if I’ve ever had Beef Wellington.

I made French toast for dinner, it was very good.

I always get a really bad headache when I’m exposed to the extraordinarily loud assault on the senses that is Chuck E. Cheese. Give a guy a trigger warning, would ya?

I don’t have a headache right now, fortunately.

I’m sure you don’t get headaches nearly as much as you give them, like the one you just gave me.

I don’t like getting up early for work, but tomorrow is Monday again.

You plan your meals? Try eating only when you are hungry, instead of on some stupid schedule.

I finally got moved to my new place.

So you purposefully chose to not give me the chance to mock your musical choice! I hate the bands you like!
