"Could you please focus on the objective of this meeting, Tom... you can get back to your 300 followers later."

'Humans are so considerate: They put perches like these for us on every one of their houses...'

Dialogue

"It's nice to be wanted."

'I recorded this earlier today. . . they're his first intelligent words!'

I disturbed the class by talking in my sleep.

'That chap really knows his onions!'

"I told you never to call me here."

"I can't believe this! All these filthy messages on your cell phone! And so many of them! What is it? 100? 500? 1,000?"

Let's tell the folks in the Garlic Belt there's no budget for steps 2 and 3.

Person talks on phone as other blogs.

"He started talking yesterday. It didn't take him long to start a podcast."

'How's it going, Rachel?'

'I may be a smart phone but I am only used to send silly text messages.'

'My holiday season: A rich tradition of belated giving and premature babbling.'

Every man and his dog gets to have an opinion on social media.

"I am, of course, quite fit, or, if you prefer, quite extraordinarily fit, but I wouldn't say I was 'perfectly fit.'"

'Sorry, dad, I'm so busy chattin' with friends I just can't work.'

'I would appreciate it if you don't call out in class.'

'This is a tongue depressor for patients who won't stop talking.'

'OK, now I'm freaked out. How'd he get my cell phone number?'

Tweet

Staying in touch with lots of mobile phones,

'I'm sending you a text. . .how did people talk before sms messaging?'

'It's nice to talk to you, Ms. Ponvert, but I need to get back to the blog I'm writing about people becoming more computer nerdy.'

You shut up! No! You shut up! No! You shut up! No!
