When politicians offer you something for nothing, or something that sounds too good to be true, it's always worth taking a careful second look. ↗

There was a time when I felt I should do everything that was offered to me, you know, ride the wave. ↗

My opposition to Interviews lies in the fact that offhand answers have little value or grace of expression, and that such oral give and take helps to perpetuate the decline of the English language. ↗

I asked the girl at the coffee shop out on a date. Unfortunately she said no, probably because I asked her out to coffee.
