If you're among the first people reading this post, and don't know how to play, hang on and I'm sure someone will explain it in the comments soon enough.

from Arrested Development:
Michael: Where did you get that outfit?
Lindsay: Mom gave it to me. I guess she wanted me to have something new. Sweet old thing.
Michael: Only two of those words describe mom, so I know you’re lying to me.
Lindsay: Okay, fine. I bought it before we went broke. I just haven’t worn it until now.
Michael: Uh huh. And the outfit yesterday?
Lindsay: Old Thing gave it to me.

from SPN 5.4:
Dean: [chuckles] You know, it’s kinda funny; talking to a Messenger of God on a cell phone, it’s… y’know, like watching a Hell’s Angel ride a moped.
Castiel: [speaking on his new cell] This isn’t funny, Dean! The voice says I’m almost out of minutes.

I offer this quote from Everybody Loves Raymond, in honor of my hubby who will soon “suffer” from my parents visiting in a week’s time, hehe:
Robert Barone: So, Debra’s parents are coming over?
Ray Barone: Yeah, they don’t come around much anymore, so we want to spend as much time as possible with them.
[Robert stares at him, not buying it]
Ray Barone: I’ve been told that’s how I feel.
