“I found out a definite way to kill a hard on. First, I think of a vagina. If that’s not enough, I remember that vaginas have teeth. And if that’s not enough, I picture them with braces. Does it every time.”

“We were chatting when one of our Internets broke…I think it was hers.”

“Anyway, thanks. Next time I won’t bother you until I’m definitely positively sure it’s broken. And that I’m not the broken one.”

“There are many things to love about you, Gina Baker, and one of them is that you laugh so easily. Some people don’t laugh at all, and I’m like, ‘Dude, I’m funny. Ask Gina.’”

“Mom seriously watches a LOT of crime TV, like all the fucking time. She sits there and watches these murder shows, and alligators on the loose, and abductions, and cops shows—it’s so funny. She actually said this to me the other day, ‘Did you know you could dust a banana for fingerprints?’ Cracks my ass up.”

A: “But you’re Jewish…your parents hid eggs?”
B: “That’s what I’m saying…all those hours futilely searching…”

Me: “My keyboard is filthy, but it wasn't me. I think it was born that way.”
Maintenance guy: “I'll go clean it for you.”
[later...] “Yeah it was gross. There were lots of little hairs in there but you were right--none of them were blond.”

Guy: “I’m a total lesbro, man. I’m living the L Word. I think they like me because I’m so nonjudgmental. And I have a penis. I’m in the club!”
Me: “Are you going to be a lesbian?”
Guy: “Well, I kinda am I guess.”

“I’m tired of dating Tower Trash!”

“It was hard to breathe under his weight. There was a deep burn between her legs. Would he kill her now the way thousands of women over thousands of years had been killed? And in a shuddering breath, as if from her own memory, she felt joined to them on all the dusty floorboards and alleyways of ancient cities, the damp blankets of ships at sea…in hay-strewn barns, dark basements, and dank tool sheds; in the mud of river bottoms, cornfields, and woods, and in beds in sunlit rooms like this one on a Thursday when she was alone and thinking about love—she was part of them all now, yet one more in this sisterhood none of them had sought.”

Exchanges:

A: “You know about the gay sex thing, right?”

A: “I’m so hongry right now I could take a bite out of Stubby’s luscious thigh.”
B: “You do not eat anything with a face!”
A: “If I close my eyes, he doesn’t have a face.”

A: “Helen broke a rib today. How did she do it? By bending over. Yup. Imagine me trying to keep a straight face for that story.”
B: “Jesus Christ, what is the world coming to?? Remind me to slice open an artery if I ever break a goddamn rib trying to tie my shoes.”

“My whole church is praying for you. Even Mr. Daniels—the cripple.”

“i'm gone a few hours and i return to a tweetland of cartoon axe murderers, shitting babies, and obama dodgers.”

Friend’s defensive Grandma: “Let me tell you something, I NEVER SENT YOU TO THE PARK WITH A PILLOW AND A PICKLE! Anytime any one of your thin little asses went somewhere, I WATCHED YOU! That’s just like the time when I was pregnant and on bed rest, and I sent your sister with my dad to get something to eat. She picked out a damn sandwich, and came right back to me and ate it in bed with me. Somehow, from that, she misconstrued that she was cooking her own meals at three years old. Oh, and I guess that means she was washing dishes at one year old. She says she had to push a stool up to the sink to be able to reach it. Well, guess what, she’s short, she would have had to do that at 18.”

“Paranormal masturbation is hot.”

“Maybe you didn’t realize you were dressed as a flying monkey from the Wizard of Oz…”

“I once had a dream that I birthed a baby elephant with the face of an elf from Dark Crystal. Oddly, it wasn't a nightmare.”

“There can be no part of me that still wants him, I tell myself. But I’d never received such undivided attention from him. It was painfully compelling, like scratching at a nettle rash, and it was contagious.”

A: “How in the hell is that dumb?”

A: “Oh, just let it flap around? That would’ve been smart? ‘Look at me! I’m trying to avoid sunburn!’ Flap, flap.”
B: “I’m just sayin’…”
A: “God, this is the most inane conversation I’ve ever had. You’re stupid. And I DON’T mean that in a good way.”
