"I told them off! Each friking one of them. God, it felt amazing!"
"I bet it did, who exactly did you tell off?"
"What do you mean Nathaniel? Star, I told Star off. Remember her?"
"Now what would you say if I told you that this wasn't Nathaniel-whatever his last name is- you think you're talking to?"

"Nathaniel apparently, now who in the hell would name their kid that? Were they expecting a white football player? I mean, seriously?"
"God, are you one of his friends? He has the worst taste in friendships, he would probably be friends with Mickey Mouse if he could."

"Anyway, his friends still suck. And anyone friends with him suck too."
"Really? Because if you're referring to me, I have to tell you I'm super-cool, like super- super cool."
