denise: i do not want to write this essay.
mark: i'm sorry, i wish i could write the essay for you.
denise: well, thanks babe, but it's supposed to be brief and to-the-point and those aren't exactly your strong suits
mark: well, i may not be brief, but i'm to the point
denise: so you're long-winded and to the point?
mark: i mean, it takes me a while to say what i want to say, but i always make my point in the end
denise: you know they changed the astrology signs. you're a cancer now.
