Guy: What? Was Cæsar, like, gay or something?

Orange juice isn't so healthy anymore.
[Lunch has just let out and everyone is walking back to class. There is a bottle of orange juice sitting on the water fountain. "Guy" sees it.]
Guy: Orange juice! [He picks it up and opens it.] This is like my lucky day! [He pauses before taking a drink and turns to his friend.] You don’t think somebody like peed in it or anything, do you?
Friend: No, man. It’s not full enough.
Guy: Cool. [He drinks it.]
