Content-free Friday Presents:

Things people say that would make bad situations better if people were rational animals, but which, in real life, always make things worse:

1. I thought he was single -- I mean, he never mentioned you.
2. I don't see why I can't sleep with your sister. I mean, you're not, are you?
3. No, didn't you know? She's been a lesbian the whole time.
4. You dumped him. That makes him fair game.
5. She said she was eighteen!

I'm out. Post yours?
