I believe that all women should be forced to carry unwanted pregnancies to term.  
Jesus is my lord and savior.  
Newt Gingrich would make a great president.  
Sheriff Joe Arpaio is my hero.

I am not the creator. You have made _two_ mistakes!

I’m sick of silly holidays like this and certainly won’t be celebrating [National Deep Dish Pizza Day](http://theyearoflivingunofficially.com/04/05/national-deep-dish-pizza-day/) tomorrow.

I won’t be picking up a pizza from Giordano’s in honor of that inglorious day.

I have zero interest in the coming baseball season and absolutely will not find a way to watch Opening Day games tomorrow.

I have zero jealousy or animosity directed toward you for having access to Giordano’s. I think it’s fantastic that you reminded me of my inability to get that without paying astounding shipping fees! I feel incredibly grateful toward you at the moment!

I completely disagree with you! And upon my visit to Chicago next month I will studiously avoid eating any pizza of such design!

I wish I had to work Good Friday and Easter Monday! I think it sucks so very much that these days are public holidays, and I scorn the idea of a four day weekend. I’d much rather be here, at my desk, working.

I’m feeling very guilty about getting new glasses at specsavers. I really wish I’d gone to my usual optomertist and paid $500+ for the same service and product that just cost me $99.

He would have put glasses on the Kid too, instead of proving to her with handy lenses that the difference is minimal and she really doesn’t need them for a .5 whatchamicallit.

Just think of all that jolly teasing she’s missing out on from her school chums. All that bonding and comraderie. How will I cope?

I often lie about the truth, but always tell the truth about my lies. Honestly.

I’ve been King of the World since before the movie.
