my brother: "hey, i'm watching the king's game, so i'm gonna be a little bit late, ok? are you ok? you sound like shit. i mean, you really sound like shit. don't do anything extreme, ok? i'll be over in about a half hour. we'll talk about it when i get there."
and phrases i hate: "to the max," "rock my socks," "ROCK!" and any combination of those.
