"If you say 'I love you' too much, it stops being special. Then we risk falling into some communication vortex where we say 'I love you' automatically, without really considering what it means, and if we mean it, and what if we wake up one day and realize that we don't mean it anymore?"
"Why do you have to keep skipping all around the CD, just play the damn album all the way through!"
"Excuse me, I don't care how long we've been sleeping together, you can't just grab food off my plate without asking like that!"
I still get angry about a terribly impolite event that occurred during my first year of art school: I had just bought a grilled chicken salad to eat before class (having not had time to eat anything all day), and as soon as I began eating (quietly, in a corner) a girl I barely knew waltzed up and snatched a few pieces of chicken. "Oooh, that looks good!" and then skipped away. KIDS THESE DAYS, I SWEAR.

Admittedly, most of the things she's saying are the same things you once said to me, but...she's much older than you were.
