Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm an old money snob, even if I don't have any.
This is so me it's not even funny.

Please. Of course.
Actually, it's just my Massachusetts upbringing -- My mother worked in Andover for most of my childhood, so I didn't know there was another PA for a long time. I have mostly only heard of the prep schools on that list via proximity -- I went to summer camp in Groton, etc.

I'd say as long as the widescreen TV is not in the living room, you're okay.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
