I like #7, especially if you stress the word ‘look’, ala Chandler on ‘Friends’ (which I grew out of years ago… really)!
Glad the Socialist made it home safely. That artificial tree is the same size as mine!

LOL at the witty comebacks!! Some are very good.
Glad the Socialist made it home safe and sound.
