  • Speaker: My People,

    I think Cresswell's point was far more to do with the fact that he was a recidivist criminal than the colour of his skin or socio economic group.

    as opposed to Russells description:

    "A 45 year-old man -- quiet and god-fearing, apparently -- was unable to accept the end of a relationship. He travelled to the building where his partner worked and, by tragic chance, found his own sister. He assaulted her. Austin Hemmings came to her aid (whether by physically intervening or simply attempting to summon help, it's not clear), was stabbed and died within minutes.
    The man arrested by police was not on bail or parole and apparently has no history of drug abuse or mental illness."

    which was clearly incorrect... I'd hardly describe someone who has previously killed someone he was stalking, and stabbed 3 others, as quite and god fearing, and the suggestion he wasn't out on bail or parole while correct was misleading considering his history.

  • Hard News: A few (more) words on The Hobbit,

    Isn't the person running sparticus like the husband of one of the key agitators in the whole hobbit debacle, which might suggest why it wasn't targeted..

  • Field Theory: Settle a bet,

    and who could forget this awesome bit of dialogue..

    Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...
    Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
    Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.
    Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
    Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
    Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
    Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
    Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.
    Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
    Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
    Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.

  • Field Theory: Settle a bet,

    oh yeah, and "In the loop" has some great ones too, he will hate me for saying this, but the Character of Malcolm Tucker reminds me of a certain Act Party staffer who used to be in Labour in the 80s.

    :-P

    Malcolm Tucker: Within your 'purview'? Where do you think you are, some fucking regency costume drama? This is a government department, not some fucking Jane fucking Austen novel! Allow me to pop a jaunty little bonnet on your purview and ram it up your shitter with a lubricated horse cock!

    ===============

    Malcolm Tucker: Just fucking do it! Otherwise you'll find yourself in some medieval war zone in the Caucasus with your arse in the air, trying to persuade a group of men in balaclavas that sustained sexual violence is not the fucking way forward!

    ===============

    Malcolm Tucker: Well, it is out there, it's out there now, lurking like a big hairy rapist at a coach station. You know, if I could, I'd punch you into paralysis!

  • Field Theory: Settle a bet,

    clearly you forget Clerks 2, the most quotable movie of all time:

    Randal Graves: That look was so gay. I thought Sam was gonna tell the little hobbits to take a walk so he could saunter over to Frodo and suck his fucking cock. Now *that* would have been an Academy Award worthy ending.
    Hobbit Lover: Hey faggot, they're not gay! They're hobbits!
    Randal Graves: And then, right after the Sam/Frodo suckfest, right before the credits roll, Sam fucking flat out bricks in Frodo's mouth.

    ===============

    Randal Graves: All right, look, there's only one "Return," okay, and it ain't "of the King," it's "of the Jedi."
    Hobbit Lover: Oh, Star Wars geek.
    Randal Graves: Oh, I'm the geek? Look at you two whipping out your preciouses.
    Elias: You'll have to excuse him, he's not "down" with the trilogy.
    Randal Graves: Oh, what the fuck happened to this world? There's only one trilogy, you fucking morons.
    Hobbit Lover: You know what, maybe we should start calling your friend Padme, because he loves Manakin Skywalker so much, right?
    [in robot voice]
    Hobbit Lover: Danger danger, my name is Anakin. My shitty acting is ruining saga.
    Elias: [chucking] Yea-Yeah, you're crazy, Jar-Jar.
    Randal Graves: Oh, I'm crazy? Those fuckin' hobbit movies were boring as hell. All it was, was a bunch of people walking, three movies of people walking to a fucking volcano.

    ===============

    Teen #1: You guys holding?
    Jay: Shit, everything but coke, heroin and your cock.
    Teen #2: What?
    Teen #1: How 'bout a nickel bag, man?
    Jay: [singing] Oh, fifteen bucks, little man, put that shit in my hand. Nong, nong, ning-a ning-a nong nong!
    Teen #1: [to friend] He likes to sing.

    ===============

    Elias: That's bestiality, Randal!
    Randal Graves: At its finest, I hope.
    Elias: Who would want to see something like that?
    Randal Graves: Me, Dante, *you*.
    Elias: I don't wanna see something like that! Why would you wanna see something like that?
    Randal Graves: Because it's fucked up! And, I wanna see if a chick with a mouth full of donkey spunk swallows. Alright, here we go. Kinky Kelly and the Sexy Stud. Strait from their dirty debut in Tijuana, Kelly's taking it on the road. Taking it in the Ass, that is. You gotta give it up for Oscar Wilde-like wordplay that good.
    Elias: Do they show pictures?
    Randal Graves: Only one of Kinky Kelly sucking off Optimus Prime.
    Elias: Really?
    [Randal hits Elias]
    Elias: Ow.
    Randal Graves: Lemme borrow your cell phone.
    Elias: [nervously] Oh... 'Cause I'm only supposed to use it to call my parents in case of an emergency.
    Randal Graves: This is an emergency. We gotta lock up Kinky Kelly for tonight so we can give Mr. Dante a memorable send off. You love Mr. Dante, don'tcha?
    Elias: In a non-gay way.

    ===============

    Randal Graves: Why haven't you fucked Myra yet?
    Elias: Well, we can't because of Pillow Pants.
    Randal Graves: What the fuck's Pillow Pants?
    Elias: Pillow Pants is a little troll who lives in her pussy.
    [Randal stares]
    Elias: Pillow Pants is her pussy troll?
    [scoffs]
    Elias: Duh. You know how every girl's parents put a pussy troll in them when the girls are young, to keep them from having premarital sex?
    Randal Graves: ...Sure.
    Elias: Well Myra's is named Pillow Pants. And so even though she totally wants to have sex with me, Myra says if I put my... thing in her, Pillow Pants will bite it off. So, I gotta wait until Pillow Pants gets peed out of her body on her 21st birthday before we can have sex.
    Randal Graves: [floored] And Myra told you this?
    Elias: Boyfriends and girlfriends talk to each other about sex stuff Randal. You'd know this if you ever had a girlfriend.
    Randal Graves: Have you and Myra even kissed yet?
    Elias: We would have already if it wasn't for Listerfiend.
    Randal Graves: [beat] Listerfiend is her mouth troll, isn't it?
    Elias: [shakes head] Women.


    Etc, etc...
