Okay, for a minute there I thought you were trying to kick me out of my dorm like some other people have been practically doing.

But yes.

I vote this weekend we have the ultimate movie marathon party instead of watching the Superbowl, because football is lame.

What the heck are you talking about?

Why would I not understand the context? I am the context.

Look, I’m sorry if I came off a little nutso, I’m not really. 

P.S. This isn’t your valentine.

P.P.S. Are you speaking to me yet?
