"'Why did God take her away?' Wait... her? Heh. My grandfather had a gender identity."
~A guy in drama, joking because he had said a line wrong. I sat there for a few moments puzzling this one out and then had to laugh out loud... doesn't EVERYONE have a gender identity?

"I want you to pair up with someone next to you and ask them how you can help them through the week. And it may just be to pray for them. Like if they say, 'I have a really big test coming up this week.' Or, 'My parents just got divorced.'"
"They did?"
"No! No, I'm using it as an example. Or, 'Man, I really hate Wednesdays. Wednesdays are tough for me. Please pray for me this Wednesday.'"

"It's for my feet."
