Loading up on all those carbs isn’t good for you.

If it was up to you, we’d all still be driving Model T’s, Luddite!

I like listening to Gorillaz, even though I’m definitely not in their demographic.

And I may be going to marry Donald Trump next summer. Spare me from the might maybes of the world.

I read the Peach Cobbler Murder on Sunday, which starts on Groundhog Day. The fact it contains the word “Peach,” like in impeachment, is pure coincidence.

Annie, I’ve read what you’ve just wrote over and over. Sounds like complete gobbledegook to me. You’re losing your marbles, right?

I do like to read a good murder mystery now and then.

Go do your ‘homework’ on how to commit the ‘perfect murder’ someplace else.

Given the choice between a bowl of chili and a grape flavored popsicle, I’d go with the chili.

ANOTHER murder mystery? Isn’t this a little obsessive, maybe even…creepy?

People are on their phones too much.

Yeah? Don’t you know the evening news is biased, but everything on the Internet is the honest truth?

So, as suspected the movie critic role didn’t work out for you, so now you’re trying to be a tv critic? You should really get a day job.
