+ I don't ask for a sample at the yogurt bar. Know what you want and order it, for Chrissake. Sample spoons are for girls.

+ If you are a spider in my house, you will be carefully carried outside to a plant. If you are a fly, you will be killed, and probably in an unusual way………..typically a rat-tail towel with a wet end. At least you will die dramatically.
