  • Now you listen to me, young lady! Even if we’re horribly mangled, there’ll be no sad faces on Christmas.
  • Am I just eating because I’m bored?
  • Cheer up, dude. It’s Christmas.
  • 4:00, wallow in self-pity; 4:30, stare into the abyss; 5:00, solve world hunger, tell no one; 5:30, jazzercize; 6:30, dinner with me—I can’t cancel that again; 7:00, wrestle with my self-loathing… I’m booked. Of course, if I bump the loathing to 9, I could still be done in time to lay in bed, stare at the ceiling and slip slowly into madness.

  • Holiday who-be what-ee?
  • I’m an idiot. You’re an idiot!
  • Hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate. Double hate. Loathe entirely.
  • And they’ll feast, feast, feast, feast. They’ll eat their Who-Pudding and rare Who-Roast Beast. But that’s something I just cannot stand in the least. Oh, no. I’m speaking in rhyme!
  • I could use a little social interaction.
  • Saving you? Is that what you think I was doing? Wrong-o. I merely noticed that you’re improperly packaged, my dear.
  • Give me that! Don’t you know you’re not supposed to take things that don’t belong to you? What’s the matter with you? You some kind of wild animal?
