Also, I was really traumatized by swimming lessons when I was a kid. I don't know why. But seriously, screaming and crying and mom pushing me through the door and the whole bit. I'm sorry mom!

Sounds a lot better than, "he didn't look right in that neighborhood."

You're a desert dweller? All the water bewilders you a bit?

Honey, you still occasionally worry that there could be sharks in bathtubs.
