Answer: version, provokes, Nasty

This is after Joe zings Kathleen with his sly remarks, and it really upsets him. He is open with her - any problems that they have they can talk freely about it. Their relationship is growing, even though they have no idea of who the other person is.
7. "The whole purpose of places like Starbuck's is for people with no decision making ability whatsoever to make ____ decisions just to buy one cup of coffee.

Now, the friendship with Joe and Kathleen is growing, and the friendship between 'NY152' and 'shopgirl' is expanding as well.
9. "Don't you _____ ________ in the fall? It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a ______ of newly sharpened pencils, if I knew your name and address. On the other hand, this not knowing has its charms.
