Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli
Spoiler Alert: A private email falls into the hands of the wrong guy. Simon’s biggest secret is on the line.
Person A: “This plan is stupid.”
Person B: “Yes, but unfortunately stupid is all we’ve got.”
Person A: “Happy birthday! Is there anything you want as a gift?”
Person B: “Oh, thank you, but no, spending time with you is more than enough. Honestly, I’m just glad you didn’t dump another surprise party on me this year.”
Person A: “Of course, no surprise party this year! Just you and me all by ourselves!…. On an unrelated note, lets eat dinner out tonight, my treat!”
Person A: “What the hell are they eating?”
Person B: “It’s…. probably best you don’tknow.”
Don’t make me hate you. Loving you is painful enough.

You break the rules.
I bend them, for comedic effect.

The Humor of Steven He
“Bong Joon-ho’s knives are unquestionably out for the prosperous and prepossessing family of one-percenters who become the unwitting dupes of a lower-class family’s cunning machinations in Parasite. But Cho Yeo-jeong triggers something other than disdain. As matriarch Yeon-gyo, the actress eliminates all irony and self-awareness from her performance, instead walking around in a lulling fog of blithe, dimwitted amiability, the personification of Bong’s idea that kindness is one of the only luxuries that the rich deign to share with those below them. Yeo-jeong is not playing a broad caricature of affluent vapidity but actual vapidity. Her character is a flibbertigibbet who has submerged any sense of an ego beneath the immediate concerns of home and family; there doesn’t seem to be an intimidating or interrogative bone in her body. Yeon-gyo’s inquiring, open-mouthed mien and artless, often idiotic inquiries in her scenes with the Kim family are never less than amusing, but they’re also unexpectedly pitiful because Yeo-jeong renders them with such peculiar wholeheartedness. By personating her character as someone fundamentally impaired by her social rank, the actress guarantees our critical sympathy, rather than our ridicule, and makes this class-conscious satire so much richer for recognizing the mortal insecurities of its well heeled targets.” — Matthew Eng

“And what’s your power supposed to be?” [Villain] looked down their nose at them.
“A can-do attitude and a gun.”
“Do you really think a gun is enough to stop me?”
“That’s where the can-do attitude comes in.”
