4. "I already bought myself all this chopping meat. Might as well grill it."

5. "A tablet! Finally, something that can entertain me. Can't believe I hadn't thought of that sooner."

6. "Pssh, my mother can't even get my sock size right, and she's going to buy headphones for my delicate ears? I think not."
