That’s a light bulb, silly, quit staring at it. Are you on crack? Reminds me to pick up light bulbs at Wal-Mart. ---

Complaining about things you just can’t change again, that’s just so typical of you. Naps are nice, but I don’t always get the chance to take one. ---

Ha, yeah. Aren’t naps just great? No. No they aren’t. I mean, they sound nice _in principle_, but the reality is that you wake up having barely rested, you feel like crap for the rest of the day, destroy your Circadian Rhythm for several days , and then will have trouble sleeping that night. Stop peddling them. 18-year old Saudi citizen Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun has landed successfully on Toronto, having been granted asylum after fleeing from her family and barricading herself in the Bangkok airport for a week. ---

Oh pleez, you are so transparent. We know you’re just flattering us so we’ll like you. Not gonna work. My cat peed on my electric blanket so I had to wash it by hand, which was about as tedious and unwieldy as you’d expect. ---

It’s friggin’ Winter, you twit! Are you one of those crackpots who are actually hoping for global warming even though it means the end of life as we know it? I hope your house is one of the first to go when the oceans rise. Valentine’s Day is coming soon, and I’ve made romantic plans for my spouse and I. ---
