I cannot believe how lazy some people are. Makes more work for the other guy. Have you no shame? I made a great meatloaf for dinner. ---

Meat is murder. Try something soy-based next time, would you, please, you culinary criminal? Time to clip my toenails, I think. ---

Ick. Is there anything worse than stepping on a clipped toenail leaving that idiots like you leave on the floor? Try to brush and floss my teeth. ---

Passive-aggressive dental hygiene, huh? Guess you’re so f–king lazy that you can’t - or won’t - do it yourself. I like donuts. ---

People who use dashes in the word “sofa king,” as in sofa—king lazy, are reptiles. I like women in short skirts on ladders. ---

Pervert! I took a lovely walk around the library instead of standing still, waiting for it to open. ---

Great, now the security has been alerted. That’s gonna cost the library money for the false alarm. TAX money. Why do you hate children and learning? How about that local sports team? ---

You mean that relic of the gender-segregation era, which normalizes the notion that males and females can’t compete with each other? I’m sure they’re doing fine, reaping the profit which comes of pandering to such outdated notions, unless you’re actually talking about the team relegated to the Female Leagues. Does anyone else here still DX shortwave broadcasts? ---

Wow, and it only took you six months. Maybe now you can actually do some work for the company that’s overpaying you. I just got that red Ford pickup I’ve been drooling over. It’s got 600 horsepower and I can’t wait to take on those wimpy Chevies and Dodges ---

Yes, I can just see you going 100 mph while texting. And if you hit someone, it will be their fault for not paying attention when they were in the crosswalk, crossing on a green light. My employer is buying us pizza and soda for lunch. Free Food! ---

How is it free if someone is “Buying” it. And soda and pizza ain’t the healthiest. We’ll be paying your medical bills at some point, I imagine. Numbnuts. I just got a new work laptop. So much faster than the last one. ---

“_Take_ her”? Is she an object? A mere plaything? Do you _own_ her? Sexist patriarchal scumbag. Yeesh. I was just complimented on my shirt. ---

Yeah, you’re looking forward to the weekend. Meanwhile, I’m dreading it because my mother-in-law is arriving Friday for what she refuses to call anything but “a somewhat lengthy visit.” Thanks for reminding me of the old battleaxe! I’m getting my niece interested in stamp collecting. ---

Stamp collecting? Haw Haw! She is paying the post office to do NOTHING. They sure hornswaggled her! I sold all my possessions and gave all the money to homeless charities.
