Did you know that if you love falafel, you could be a terrorist?

It's not diplomatic to use "we" in that situation; it's passive-aggressive.

That happens ALL THE TIME here. I think it's worse because chaplaincy training is all about Group Dynamics and Supportive Listening and other assorted touchy-feelyness, and they don't know how to turn it off when practicality and clarity are more needed than warm fuzzy feelings.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ooooh, I DO love falafel. I better keep an eye on myself. I'm pretty shifty.

Only if you HATE AMERICA.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Every time you eat falafel the baby jesus beats a kitten.

Do you really want that on your head?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

To which I say, both are good eatin'.

I was going to say "the baby jesus fucks a kitten" but that just seemed too evil
