I mean, think about it. If someone pointed to a classmate of yours and asked you what they meant to you, how would you answer? What would you say?
It's amazing how much you kiss your own ass.
There's something wrong with people who seek reality in fiction.
Actually... Ponytails turn me on... that ponytail you had back then, it looked so good it was criminal!
The Santa that showed up at my Kindergarden Christmas festival? I knew he was fake. And I never saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus, either. But I have to say, even as a little kid I knew better to believe in some old man who worked only one day a year.
However, as always, this girl was thinking up all sorts of nonsensical stuff. I can't help but wonder if there's a black hole inside her head, since her common sense seems to come from a different universe altogether.
If your face gets any closer, someone who isn't supposed to be in this scene is going to come over there and kick your ass!
I had a dream where I fell into a surreal world with a girl I knew, and then ended up kissing her! A dream so easy to understand that even Sigmund Freud would laugh out loud.

*thinking* Every day, I hang out with an alien, a time traveler, and a Esper...and I'm still as sane and objective as ever. Hmm...I wonder if that makes me special or something.

And without any buildup or fanfare, we now see Nagato Yuki. Even if she were ordinary, she sure doesn't look like a normal person and naturally, she was actually an evil magician. And an alien on top of that.
Emblem? Looks like a grumbling, drunken tapeworm to me.
*referring to Haruhi* It would appear that she views guys on the same level as potatoes.
*thinking* Normally, one would call an ambulance or ask for help from one of the nearby residents, but this particular boy decided to carry the unconscious, innocent girl... and where the hell are you taking her, bastard?
Don't use a serious tone. Don't breathe on me. Your face is too close. Freaking me out.
*to Haruhi* I'm begging you. Establish the context before you start talking.

Time never comes back once it’s gone.
I thought that everyone in Japan had to be packed in there. So I turned to my dad and asked him,"Do you know how many people are here right now"? He said probably fifty thousand, since the stadium was full. I was only one little person in that big crowded stadium filled with people, and there were so many people there, but it was just a handful out of the entire population. Up till then, I always thought that I was, I don't know, kind of a special person. It was fun to be with my family. I had fun with my classmates. And the school that I was going to, it had just about the most interesting people anywhere. But that night, I realized it wasn't true. All the stuff we did during class that I thought was so fun and cool, was probably happening just like that in classes in other schools all over Japan. There was nothing special about my school at all.
What else would I be here for? To illegally enter the premises, of course.

We believe that God exists. And he exists because we exist.
Let's calm down. The enemy is shooting at us.
Well, I don't think we can deny the distinct possibility that the world we are in now was freshly created, by Her, last night! In any case, it's an honor to meet you and Miss Suzumiya again. *laughing softly* Be seeing you after class!

About The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Also known as Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu.
If a survey were conducted to see if people believed in aliens, time travelers, or maybe espers, most would say they do not; average high school student Kyon considers himself among the non-believers. However, on his first day of school, he meets a girl who soon turns his world upside down. During class introductions, the beautiful Haruhi Suzumiya boldly announces her boredom with "normal" people and her intention of meeting supernatural beings. Dumbfounded, Kyon learns of her frustration with the lack of paranormal-focused clubs at their school and unwittingly inspires her to start her own club. She creates the Spreading Fun all Over the World with Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade, otherwise known as the SOS Brigade. Following the SOS Brigade's founding, Haruhi manages to recruit Kyon and three other members: quiet bookworm Yuki Nagato, shy upperclassman Mikuru Asahina, and perpetually positive Itsuki Koizumi. Despite their normal appearance, the new members of the SOS Brigade each carry their own secrets related to Haruhi. Caught up in the mystery surrounding the eccentric club leader, Kyon is whisked away on a series of misadventures by Haruhi and the SOS Brigade, each one bringing him closer to the truth about who and what she is.
