Thanks, Obama!

Warriors! Come out and play!
I was on a flight once and overhead someone on their cell phone and from their side of the conversation, it sounded like this guy in the seat near me me was having his company stolen out from under him by someone he trusted. He was clearly stressed and panicked but was trying to sound calm and professional and said everything in euphemism. The one line I remember was, “It sounds like Dan had his own agenda.” I felt really bad… Whoever Dan was, he was a douche-bag.
The classified ad in the snopes link is particularly heart-breaking. Or maybe the baby just had bigger feet than size 2 so the shoes they received as a gift wouldn’t fit and the baby went on to live a long and happy life?
A nine mile walk is no joke, especially in the rain.
“I am going to have a long talk with Bombadil: such a talk as I have not had in all my time”
“…and that’s why my brother isn’t allowed near parades anymore.”
“If one of them sits at a table they will most likely be immature and even if i’m friendly and do a good job serving probably not tip me.”
The first line from one short story and the last line from a second:
“A swordsman fought a sorcerer once, not long before the end.”
“Overhead, without any fuss, the stars were going out.”
“The senator, while insisting that he was not intoxicated, could not explain his nudity”
It is my favorite book of all time, and I have never read it.
“Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.”
Well done.
Yabbut that was followed by an ENTIRE FREAKING NOVEL that gave context to that line. Please see the OP.
