28) I'm so ashamed
29) I will change
30) I'm hungry, can you put some money on my books
The only problem is that if someone really meant and intended to do some of these things and quit they'd be screwed as far as trying to tell someone as no one would believe them.

I wouldn't either but just sayin....

Usually to that kind of stuff I just say a deadpan "Okay" and try not to roll my eyes, lol.
