Annoy	-2	So what are you trying to SAY exactly?	Don't you think song lyrics are better than poetry?	Who needs art when we've got Reality TV?
Apologize	+1	Sorry I never read your first book of poetry.	Sorry I rarely change my outfit.	Pardon my almost global ignorance.
Brag	+2	I know a word that rhymes with orange.	I could play Hamlet with my eyes closed.	Last year I taught an old dog a new trick.
Call Name	-3	Hack!
Cheer Up	+4	You make words sound like music.	It's going to be a bright and sun-shiny day.	Sonnets are my favorite poems.
Complain	-2	I don't read very much.	The library doesn't have enough self-help books.	I hate long words.
Compliment	+3	You have hair like beautiful liquid obsidian rock.	Your voice is like that of a joyous nightingale.	Your sense of style is equal to that of an aristocrat.
Joke	+1	Did you hear the joke about the four-letter poem?	Did you hear the joke about the clean Limerick?	Did you hear the one about the green fairy?
Flirt	+1	You have the most wonderful command of language.
Insult	-2	Your poetry belongs in a greeting card.	When you talk you sound like you're asleep.	I'd rather hear a crying cat than your poetry.
Intimidate	-4	If you don't speak normally I'm going to steal your quill pen.	I once memorized 'Paradise Lost.'	Oh everybody wants to be a poet these days.
Gossip	+2	I hear Nora Zeal-Ott wants you to write her campaign speeches.	I heard a rumor that Misty Waters has webbed feet.	I hear Vernon Peeve writes poetry too.
Discuss Interests	+1	I prefer living a poetic life.	I love lying on my back and listening to the wind.	I like the smell of vanilla in little glass bottles.

Annoy	-2	Nobody reads poetry anymore, do they?	What's the difference between meter and rhythm?	My favorite poem starts with 'Candy is dandy...'
Apologize	+1	Sorry for my poor taste.	Sorry I assume so much.	Pardon my uncontrollable laughter.

Cheer Up	+4	I think poets are the unacknowledged legislators of life.	I'm so happy I could write a lullaby.	You make me feel smart and significant.
Complain	-2	I don't like learning new things.	I wish everything in life was fun.	I think poetry is for old-fashioned people.

Tease	-2	If you're such a good poet why haven't I seen you on television?	You would look so adorable in one of those flapper hats.	Don't you think writing is a little silly?

Hug		How about a big squeeze?
Friendly Kiss		Friendly kiss, Claire?
Passionate Kiss		Shall I compare thee to a... nevermind, just kiss me!
