I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Just goes to show, maybe you should thank people properly if you don't want them to get mad at you and do something you may just not like (reference: last paragraph).
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

Interesting, I wonder how they figured out something like this. It is by no means a simple little exploit that one might just happen on.
