Primo: Well, then, you know where it will have to go.
Me: Oh no it won't.
Primo: It will have to go in the guest room.
Me: Forget it. Put it in your office.
Primo: There's no room in there!
Me: I know! Because you have 20-year-old software training manuals in there! Why won't you throw them away?
Primo: I don't have time to go through that stuff now!
Me: Your crap is taking over this house like kudzu! Why can't you just spend half an hour a day going through your junk and throwing things away?
Primo: I'm too stressed! I'm too busy!
Me: You're not too busy to go out to karaoke.
Primo: What, I'm not supposed to have fun now?
Me: You promised! You promised that once your leave started, you would clear out some of the junk.
Primo: That was last year, when I took a sabbatical.
Me: No, you promised a few weeks ago.
Primo: I can't do it.
Me: You're a liar. You make promises you don't keep.
Primo: I'll do it after the election.
Me: Liar! You've been promising to clean stuff out since before we moved into this house! I don't believe you.
Primo: Now is not the time for me to become disciplined.

"You make promises you don't keep" - he already has the defining characteristic of a politician, then? I'm kidding! I hate having to deal with someone else's clutter, but I also hate the boredom of clearing up my own.
