That sentiment seems so quaint, so 2001-2008, by now.

brilliant

Farking brilliant!!!!!!

Reminds me of the shirtless guy in Ghost World’s reaction when told he had to leave the liquor store: “This is America–learn the rules!”

No wonder the rest of the world hates us.

if you find out where I can get one for MY FORD F-150 GIGANTIC PICK-UP TRUCK, please let me know?

@Evan, that would be “Doug,” one of the great mulleted, nunchucked, tube-socked, wife-beater-t-sunburn-patterned movie characters of all time.

Yes, Doug. I couldn’t remember his name. One of my favorite scenes in any movie:

Doug: What’s up, Josh? Give me two packs of cigarettes today. Working overtime: Sixteen hours.
[Puts malt liquir bottle on the counter]
Doug: And nature’s nectar, wake-up juice. And give me six of these beef jerkys. I’m hungry enough to chew the crotch out of a rag doll.
[Sidewinder Boss spots him]
Sidewinder Boss: Hey. Hey. How many times do I have to tell you? No shirt, no service. Get the hell out of my store. What do you think this is, Club Med?
Doug: It’s called America, dude. Learn the rules.
Sidewinder Boss: “Learn the rules?” No, YOU learn the rules. We Greeks invented democracy.
Doug: You also invented homos.
Sidewinder Boss: Fuck you.
Doug: You wish. You gotta buy me dinner first.

My friend and I were crying from laughter when we saw that, and the rest of the theater was dead silent.

Here you go

I could have saved you the typing (or hopefully you were able to cut and paste the scene). It’s one of my all-time favorites. What a great movie too.

Oops, Sean beat me to it.
