\u201cWe said we\u2019d exhaust our other options before resorting to tactics anyone would regret, didn\u2019t we, Jerry?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWe did.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cGod, so am I.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But I really like Stan.<\/p>\n

Miss Christiana would be sure he was some sort of exploitative swine\u2014 of course she would, with Temp cheerfully saying, I told her she didn\u2019t have to fuck you as if anyone could hear a sentence like that without panicking.
