&lt;br /&gt;
yes i realize what you said&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
wow youre smart&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
what'd you say&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i don't know who said that i said it&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
o&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
no its not really like that&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
its not how they said i thought it was&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
its more strange but also more simple&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and you have to look it up in a book&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
but if you look it up in a book youre fucked&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
o&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the time changed the other day&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
it was okay&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i didn't really notice but it was pleasant&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the clocks had to be changed manually&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
but the computers changed themselves&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
what if we all ate a burger at the same time&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
it would have to be a big burger&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
jesus would probably have to do something to help out&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
you probably wouldnt believe it&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i might not believe it&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
depends on his technique&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
what is the point of numbers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
just to count, really&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
counting is useful&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
why do cigarette prices keeep going up&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
think you know why&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i can tell you if you dont&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
but i might have to look it up&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
yeah i am tired of the repetition too like you thought i might be&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
no im not implying that your life is repetitive&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
angry dogs are barking outside&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
police sirens just drove by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
unrelated&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
but its interesting how we never die&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
until we realize that we will&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
10.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
focus on something specific&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
unfocus&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
focus&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
unfocus&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
o&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
11.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the leaves changed the other day&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i could tell that a certain hue of dark green had definitely become a certain hue of dark orange&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
secondary colors in tragic motion or something&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
12.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
lifted up my boxers the other day&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
scratched my balls&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
looked at my ballls&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
nodded to myself&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
13.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
does anyone know what lebron james' new number is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i dont want to look it up and i can never tell when i see game clips&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
14.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ending on an even number would be good&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
it would create balance&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
15.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i stepped on every crack i could today&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
16.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i think i am uncomfortable making connections&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
it feels better to wake up early&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
but it is okay to stay up all night&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
18.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
bananas are red if you are weirdly color blind&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
of course, i don't know anyone that is colorblind&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
over half of all females are color blind i heard&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;when i was younger i would say things like&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;'i wish everybody had a video camera&amp;nbsp;filming them&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;so they could see how stupid they&amp;nbsp;are'&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;but if we need cameras&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;to feel the weight of ourselves&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;we&amp;nbsp;will only feel&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;less 'real'&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;like untagging your name&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;from facebook pictures&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;or getting 'obliterated' every night,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;waking up&amp;nbsp;with chunks missing&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;from your pillow&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;we should sit in a room&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;and not say anything&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;we should sit in a room&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;and let pieces of the ceiling&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;fall onto us, unflinchingly,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;as our faces strip off&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;layers of themselves.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;maybe, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;but if you want &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;to go buy cigarettes&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;i will probably make &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;the walk with you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
