I just grabbed a slice of pizza and a salad from the cafe downstairs. In the elevator, one of the professors says to me, "Jeez, how many people are you going to feed with that!"

Geez, Sparky, what a maroon.
Engorapido sounds like a porn name to me.

"Prepare for me to suck up your dirt!"

Wow, Sparky. I'm just... wow.
