<<1)  My family doesn't celebrate Christmas>>
 
Half of mine doesn't either.  It gets very confusing.  And  somewhat 
contentious.  All right.  A lot contentious.  Major  contentious.  Super 
contentious.  
But silently.  Silently super  contentious is not good.  Trust me.
<<2)  I have to work tomorrow morning so I can't go out  tonight and do
anything crazy>>

I have kids so I can't either.
 
<<3)  I've already watched my Dead Like Me episode for the week,  and I watch
no other television.>>

I don't know Dead Like Me.  Can I rent it?  Should I?
 
<<4)  I don't feel like reading anything>>

I didn't either, last night.  So I read one of my 7th grade daughter's  
library books.  It didn't suck.
 
<<5)  I didn't do as well as I would have liked on my last  German test and so
when I get a few moments here and there I do the work that  will be required
of me next semester so I won't have to worry about it later  and I can
concentrate on other things.>>

I remember tests.......  I did well on them.  Unlike real  life.....  <sigh>  
Who said College prepares you??
 

<<So if anyone can tell me what the difference is, that'd be  super great.>>
 
Is super great better or worse than awesome?  How does it compare to  lame?  
or gay?  or righteous?  I need a list of comparative  slang.
