Every time somebody says something like “I could have done that” (especially if they’re being dismissive of somebody’s achievement), it brings me great pleasure to say “but you didn’t.”

“It ain’t honest work, but it’s much”

You better not be gearing up to go all Deliverance on us with that story

Joke’s on you, I was never good in the first place
