Joseph Rauch: "I'm thoroughly convinced me and few buddies could have trained a drunken monkey to write a better ..."
Jim: I know it's been bad some weeks but ... whoa, Dan, are you OK?
Tiffanie: "I can see you cringing now."
Jim: Michael, will you please stop kicking Dan under the table?
Michael McKnight: "U.S. patriots are all wrong, at least in the eyes of The Daily Tar Heel columnist Dan Harrison!"
Jim: Is that any reason to kick him?
Michael: "He is not afraid to use weapons of mass destruction against even his own citizens!"
Dan: "Little could be further from the truth!"
Joseph: "People are just looking for reasons to have at each other."
Tiffanie: "We quarrel with, look down on and detest each other, and that's sad."

Tiffanie: "I can see you cringing now."
Jim: I can't believe that group of sorority girls, Lenoir workers and vegans just attacked you!
Michael: "Sorority girls are great."
Jim: I didn't catch what that one sorority girl said when she walked by. ... Tiffanie, did you hear?
Tiffanie: "Castration is supposedly a thumbs-up solution."
Jim: Well, I gotta go. But first, have you all learned anything new about yourselves from writing your columns?
Michael: "I am struggling with some sort of repressed socialistic tendencies."
Dan: "At 21, as I have recently discovered, you become eligible to join the Hair Club for Men."
Joseph: "If I want to hit myself in the head with a 10-pound sledgehammer repeatedly, I can do that."
Tiffanie: "Praise me or condemn me, love me or hate me. It's all interchangeable."
