Sybil: See this Lunchbox? My mom made me Brown-bag it today. She says that the lunches served at school aren’t Nutritious enough.
Chris: That Sucks. What did she make you?
Sybil: A salad.
Chris: Oh, Gross. I really feel sorry for you. What else?
Sybil: Let me see. There are some carrot sticks, too.
Chris: Sucker! You should have Thrown a fit. I wouldn’t have Taken it lying down. Listen to me. You should Ditch that lunch and buy lunch instead, like me.
Sybil: I can’t. I don’t have any Lunch money. Do you want To trade some of yours for mine?
Chris: You’re dreaming. There’s no way I’m trading my pizza for your salad and carrot sticks.
Sybil: Not even if I do your math homework?
Chris: Math homework? Now you’ve got my attention.
Sybil: Only if you give me the entire Slice of pizza.
Chris: You Drive a hard bargain. How about this? I’ll Split the pizza with you, if you’ll do my homework.
Sybil: You must really think I’m a sucker if you think I’d agree to that!
