3. The Lounge is where I come to get away from that name
Also where I come to get away from that shrugging smily icon. It is clear that you hate me. You and Jesus, that is.

5. Well, I live in the South and I can tell you...
Our doornails don't talk.

Actually, I think that's a corruption of "dead as a doornail". Which, of course, is even more senseless than "dumb as".
