Am I deaf and
Blind, sir?
Can you tell me that you
Did not just say what I heard? My
Ears are just
Fine. Did you really…?
Give me a break,
Huh?
I know when a
Jerk is a jerk.
Kicking a man when he’s down doesn’t
Leave a bad taste in your mouth
(Mixing metaphors again – watch it)?
Never mind…
Oh, and if I
Plant one on you…
Quit it!
Really, you must be
Someone who does not
Think before they speak.
Ugly thoughts make
Very bad actions, sir.
We should probably do it here
(“X” marks the spot).
You make your move…or
Zip it!
