1. Absolutely not.
It's the greatest way to say bye to anyone, so far above the lesser "See you later".

5. greatest? only for the lazy-mouthed.
"I can make a long-I sound, sure, but I choose not to do so for this first syllable."

"Fuck off ingrates."

11. Only if I can attach a rider to your bill.
1. Ending "er" words with "ah" has to disappear. ForevER.

2. Ghetto-gangster talk by white suburbanites must be annihilated.

3. No more "'nuff said."

:hi:

And you couldn't find a blonder, more blue-eyed white guy with a sieve.

And this is the same kid who helped me memorize all the stuff I needed to pass my orals in Shakespeare. So that means, he learned it all, too.

19. "Nick, Nick, you're WHITE!"
When I was preparing, I was PREPARING every waking moment. So, I'd push the cart in the grocery store and Nicky would be bringing up the rear with my flash cards. He'd call out "Othello!" and I'd have to give the dates and states of the texts and blah blah.

Little did I know he was hearing, "Othello faced the man / He had a plan / And a candle

:rofl:

21. And ending statements with comma no question mark.
