Things I say a lot at parties with my non-academic friends

"No, I'm not teaching right now."

"Yes, I've applied at [LOCAL COMMUNITY COLLEGE]."

"Yes, I'm willing to move."

"No, I mean twelve jobs in the whole country."

"Yes, I am writing a book. But I won't make any money off of it."

"No, I can't become a pastor."

"No, I can't start my own religion."

"You're right, I should be on TV."

"No, Reza Aslan isn't...*sigh*...is there any gin left?"
