person A: When I was in high school I borrowed my parents car_comma_ and got into an accident. Of course like most human teenagers I tried to cover it up but they found out.
person B: Hey_comma_were you injured?
person A: No I was fine_comma_ just my pride was wounded. Of course_comma_ being a human being and not a robot I was overwhelmed by the lie. I fessed up to them eventually.
person B: Hope they took it easy with you?
person A: No I was grounded for a very long time and couldn't hang out with my friends.
