Have you ever been, say, on the telephone with someone and he or she said something to you that was sooo jerky that you were like, "Did I seriously dial numbers in order to have this conversation?" Yes, darling, you did.
It's moments like those (and thankfully they are quite rare) that I theoretically wish I were a mermaid. I mean, I am sure life under the sea would entail all sorts of issues I can't even imagine, but wouldn't this be a much more lovely scenario?

sure there would be issues but how uptight can you get under the sea sponge bob square pants would be perk enough for me

Well, there is always what I like to call the cranky conversational abberration. I think everyone's a bit guilty of this from time to time.
