We had a self-defense case where a samurai sword was fatally wielded against an intruder, over on the campus...not that long ago.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I have concluded that it's mostly the narrator's voice, or tone of voice, maybe
Isn't it ganked from Dead Poets' Society? (I mean, I know it's Whitman, but it sounds like Robin Williams, maybe slightly Autotuned.)

A mentally ill young man here killed his grandmother with a samurai sword. It was particularly sad because his family and local law enforcement knew he could be violent, but couldn't get him the treatment he needed.

Because books.
I think it actually is Robin Williams. I sort of love it, but it's hitting me just right at the moment.

Ginger, I hate that ad with the heat of a thousand suns. Every time it comes on and for whatever reason I can't fast forward or otherwise escape, I contemplate exactly why I hate it so much. I have concluded that it's mostly the narrator's voice, or tone of voice, maybe, and a little bit of a callback to my inexplicable hatred for the Gaiman "Make Good Art" speech.
Hells yes. And I'm pretty sure it is Robin Williams.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I knew a guy in high school who, along with another guy, snuck onto Penny Marshall's property dressed like ninjas and held her hostage briefly with their samurai swords. True fax.

Tep, I made gluten free, low glycemic muffins today and thought of you (and ita). I made them less healthy by topping them with almonds or chocolate chips or butterscotch chips. But they are yum.

The only thing Liese left out. If you as a user can choose to see everything certain people or pages post, then that means marketers can reach you without paying facebook. By limiting what you can see from everybody they can guarantee that if you are using Facebook for marketing the only way you can reach all your friends or all your followers or everyone who "liked" your page is to pay Facebook. (The only workaround is to visit the Timeline of someone you friend or follow or of the page you liked. But that only lets you access them one at a time.)
I predict that Facebook has gotten too clever with this, that Facebook usage will drop significantly in the next few years, simply because more and more users won't "get what they need" from it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
confirmed: it is Robin Williams.
