Excuse me, Spirit, but you’re blocking the power turner-offer. Repent your evil deeds! Or suffer in hellfire for all eternity… The only eternity I care about is how long this conversation is taking.

Please take pity on my poor soul! Oh, uh, really? Great. Okay, first thing is to buy a fat goose for the Cratchits, then-- I wasn’t serious, moron! Do you have any idea who I am? I happen to be on a first name basis with your boss. Actually, I’m a benign spirit of mercy. Not a devil. Oh, I didn’t realize! A spirit of mercy!

Shame on you. Shame! Shame on me?! Have you seen this man’s attendance record? Well, uh, no. But I don’t see how it’s relevant. He’s missed fifty-four days this year.
