What we like to do...write down funny things we each say

Dave: "Poopy cadaver.

Raquel: "...that's a horrible mental image."

Raquel: "Watermelon should be eaten' naked."

Dave: "We have plenty of nipples."

Dave:"Get your finger out of my earball...I said "earball" lol."

Dave: "Don't put your finger in his whole." (speaking of a stuffed animal Elle tore into)

Raquel: "That's what she said."

R&D: LOL

Dave: "That's so wrong."

Raquel: "We haven't had any new quotes for our quote board in a long time."
Dave: "That's cus we never say anything funny."

Dave: "Hold on, I have to get crap out of my pants."

Raquel brillantly opens the blinds.
Dave: "Let there be light."
Raquel: "Yeah I'm God."
Dave: "That was blasphemous."

Dave: "What's the first ingredent in most of the things you eat?"

Raquel: "Umm...Sugar!"

"You aren't a very good teacher. You don't know my weaknesses. You could never be Jesus." -Raquel

"Free public bathrooms is what makes America great." -Dave

"You make me act stupid."-Raquel

"I'll try not to bite your face anymore." -Raquel

"Will you scratch my back? Just below where my hair ends in the center of my back." -Raquel

"Ever since I got face on my hair..." -Dave
