eat your words

My mom said I'd fail math. I got an A. She ate her words and her pride.

He said he'd beat me up. Now he's crying in the corner like a baby.

She said she'd never eat pizza again. Now she's eating three slices and bragging about it.

He promised he'd win the race. Now he's last and tripping over his own feet.

She said she'd beat me at chess. I won, and she looked like a total dork.

He said he'd never miss a beat. Now he's out of breath and sweating like a pig.

He said he'd eat the whole cake. Now he's throwing up in the trash can.

She said she'd never lose. Now she's crying in the hallway.

He said he'd beat me at basketball. Now he's sitting on the bench with a broken leg.

He said he'd never get fat. Now he's eating a whole pizza by himself.

She said she'd finish the project. Now she's crying over a half-done paper.

He said he'd win the game. Now he's sitting on the floor with a broken nose.

He said he'd be rich by 20. Now he's working at a fast food joint.

She said she'd never eat broccoli again. Now she's eating it like it's a delicacy.

He said he'd never fail. Now he's getting a D and laughing at himself.
