I only wear NEW CLOTHES Mommie.

They have to be NEW Mommie.

EEOOUUU!! You mean somebody else has used them!!

EEOOUU!! How disgusting!!

Note: This person lives in a USED HOUSE because it was in a NICE NEIGHBORHOOD,

bought a USED car because they called it "PRE-OWNED and certified",

I will never buy, own or appreciate ANTIQUES, because they have all been

..... USED BY SOMEBODY BEFORE.

Well, used things are good enough for POOR PEOPLE, but I AM SPECIAL!

I only only only ever ever ever BUY NEW THINGS.and ...... we're RICH ...

aren't we Mommie?

So let me see. So what is this THING you have about U.S.E.D. things??

Well I don't like anything that has been touched by ANOTHER HUMAN BEING before!!

Hmmmmmm.... OK.

So like, unless it has been built by a ROBOT, you won't buy it, even NEW?

No, if it is NEW, then I will buy it.

Hmmmmm.

So like, you don't eat in reataurants then, right?

Because another HUMAN BEING has prepared thefood, right?

Yes, that's right. I don't like reataurants FOR THAT VERY REASON.

I just eat FAST FOOD, because it is prepared BY ROBOTS.

Hmmm ... that's interesting.

So how about at achool, did you ever sit in a USED DESK?
