Within the other thread, select the quote button for the post that you want to use. Then copy what's in the edit box and paste that into this thread.

"You're half the man I thought you were!" She said divisively.

"Working out will get you ripped in no time." He said enthusiastically.

"Can I steal a moment of your time?" She said kleptomaniacally.

I couldn't stop laughing, cried Mitch.

I double checked it, remarked Elenore.

I can't make up my mind, she said decisively.

The situation calls for a more subtle approach, she shrieked.

If you do it right you only have to do it once, he repeated.

If only I could think, he thought.

"The sun is too bright today" he blinked.

"I don't know the answers" He said blankly.

"I love that dress but the hem has to be lower." Sundae said longingly.

"The bureaucrats at the FCC lost my ham license and I'll have to take the test again." said TW with remorse.

"Did you know that squirrels fart?!" said LJ fervently.



BTW if you're a purist you can use "remorsefully". I like the way I phrased it better.

I like your phrase better too.

No purists here; we can take the general idea and run with it.

Sadly, my brain isn't up to making a swiftie out of any of my comments.

"Give me some of that," she said, bitingly.

"I could go for some cranberry juice," she said dipsomanaically.
