OTG! We were all so disgusted seeing and smelling that festering purulent mess. Maybe next time you won’t try welding while drunk.  
I’m so pleased that the days are getting longer.

Are you burning out doing whatever objectionable thing that you do at night? You need to confess.

I am weary of the “count to one million” thread.

Well when you quit school in 1st grade you never learn to have fun with numbers.  
But…that thread is kinda boring.

It’s always about the cash, isn’t it? You could have spent that time doing charity work for those less fortunate than you, you know.

I got home from work early.

Ah, the life of a full-time slacker! Don’t worry, others stepped up to do the work you didn’t bother to.  
Time to get dressed up to go to the square dance

Redneck-splaining again, I see.

Like you need all those calories and sugar. And you’ll burn some of those calories and sugar if you walk to the store and get another one.

I got a 1950 copy of Grimm’s Fairy Tales at the library

Well, we’re all glad to see that you’ll get your fix of anti-Semitism, sexism, violence and exhorting the value of aristocrats. Maybe you should accompany that with _Mein Kampf._

My soccer team is down 2 -1 at the moment.

You think your cat is picky and aloof. How about you ignoring its needs. Shoe box. Hummph. Get it catnip (and stay out of it yourself).

I’m not going to the movies instead of watching the SuperBowl. And don’t tell me who won.

It is so sad to see such fanaticism among sports junkies, how they shovel their dreams anxieties and self-esteem onto people they don’t personally know who are playing games. That’s what’s wrong with this world.
