Sentence: When he came home from school, Sammy was always starving. He ran to the fridge, grabbed whatever looked good, seasoned it and stuck it in the oven to warm, so he could eat soon. He believed if he lay on the floor and watched it through the window in the stove, he could compel it to be ready quicker. The first time his Mom saw him lying there, she yelled, "Yo, Prone Ranger! What are you doing?" To which Sammy replied, "Me? Why I'm just kilnthyme!"
