"Are you mad?"
"Very."
"How mad?"
"Enough that if I knew where you lived, you would be dead in your sleep."
"I think you've officially switched to the dark side. Welcome, we have cookies."
"Hardy, har, har Misfit. You're just so funny, aren't you?"
"Okay, I'm sorry that I decided to ignore you to tick you off. There, you happy?"
"Not as happy as I would have been if you had bought me cookies."
"I don't even know where you live, moron."
"Who said you said to send them to me?"
"Who said that I would buy you cookies?"
"Congrats, you outwitted me again."
"I can see the sarcasm dripping from your words from over here. Oh, how the tables have turned. I'm the nice one and you're the rude one, for once in our lives."
"I don't even care anymore."
"Whatever. Want to continue our ten questions?"
"No, I'm tired of that game. Let's play fill in the blanks."
"What the heck is that?"
"It where I say a phrase and you have to answer the words I leave blank."
"I'm still not sure if I understand."
"Okay, let's do a demo round. My favorite color is....?"
"Am I supposed to answer?"
"Yes!!"
"Oh, okay. My favorite color is maroon."
"So, now it's your turn."
"Wait, I have to participate?"
"You're hopeless."
"Okay, uh, my favorite animal is...?"
"This is a no brainier. My favorite animal is a gerbil."
"A gerbil?!?! What kind of psychopath are you?"
"It's not that weird!!"
"..."
"Okay, maybe it is."
"I would love to stay and talk about your weird love for gerbils, but I have to go socialize and be a good barista. Talk to you later, Oliver Twist."
