Cements reputation as a long-winded bore! Just now on Veronica Mars:
Guidance counselor: You were sleeping in class. Mrs. Taft said she’s reprimanded three times for wearing headphones while she’s teaching.
Veronica: She’s reading The Golden Bowl. [beat] Aloud. [beat] With a fake English accent.
Well, if that isn’t provocation, I don’t know what is.
