Great comebacks to use when someone is out of line:
- "What a strange thing to say out loud."
- "I’ve been using 'I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you' a lot lately."
- “Let’s normalize keeping some thoughts to ourselves.”
- "When someone interrupts me, I like to say, 'Your turn!'"
- “You brighten every room you walk out of.”
- “That makes sense when you don't think about it.”
- "I'll say, 'You look like the type,' and then let their insecurities take over from there."
- “When someone interrupts me, I say, 'Oh, I'm sorry, did the middle of my sentence interrupt the beginning of yours?'"
- "'I wasn’t insulting you, I was describing you…'"
- "When someone comments on someone else's social media to say 'I'm unfollowing you now because (insert: whatever reason),' I'll comment back, 'This isn’t an airport, you don’t have to announce your departure.'"
- “I bet your parents change the subject when you get brought up.”
- "You're doing your best. And that's embarrassing."
- "Just because you don’t like the answer doesn't mean it’s not the answer."
- "Sometimes, I just side-eye my friend but without any subtlety."
- "That’s so brave of you!!"
- "I'll say, 'Do you think?' and then stop there. But you gotta say it as if more is coming after it."
- “I’d love to agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong.”
- “That’s a choice!”

One in 7 would ditch their partner to help their dog live longer:
According to a new survey of 19-hundred U.S. dog owners, 52% say their dog’s health is “just as” important as their own, and another 41% take it further, saying it’s even more important than their own. Half of owners would clone their dog , and 10% admit there’s “no limit” to what they’d pay to do it. Many dog parents would give up their favorite things in life if it meant their dog would live three years longer. Gen Z would gladly say goodbye to their favorite meals, Gen Xers would cut out coffee forever, and baby boomers would be willing to have all their entertainment spoiled for them.
Second Date Update: Shawn calls us about Cassie. He really liked that they both really were into basketball. But is he too much of a fan?
