Life is easy when you're not mentally or physically impaired or addicted.

A very helpful girl will give you a hint as to why she isn't interested. And a lot of us enjoy improvement projects, so please - if she does, take the hint.

Bodice coolers are way more fun, and you can stick flowers in 'em like a little vase.

"It's a great big beautiful tomorrow!"

Um, I can see a lot of movies for 6 mil.

Hell, I can probably rent a theatre as often as I want for that much.

That's so stupid I'm boycotting Chile now. Seriously.

I like the squid.

Whattaya mean, there's no squid?

Hmmph. Want a squid.

Flowers are generally a gift, so maybe people perceived that they didn't need to pay since they were being given a "gift"...

Hawthorne effect. They paid attention to them.
