There's no time! We don't know her taste in home decor! She's already getting rid of a ton of home stuff!
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Coworker? The missive against jewelled flip flops? Your shoes are bejewelled flip flops with heels. However, I'm wearing a mini skirt, so let's call it a wash.
