Thanks a lot, you *&^%ing loser!

In one of the reviews of The Secret Knowledge there's a story about a homeless guy asking a toff for a handout. He responded, "'Neither a borrower nor a lender be.' William Shakespeare." The bum replied, "'$#^& you.' David Mamet."

Blake: We're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anybody want to see second prize?

[Holds up prize]

Blake: Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired.

That's cute. The Verdict and The Spanish Prisoner are my favorites Mamets.

Dave Moss: Moss. You're such a hero, you're so rich, how come you're coming down here wasting your time with such a bunch of bums?

Blake: You see this watch? You see this watch?

Dave Moss: Yeah.

Blake: That watch costs more than you car. I made $970,000 last year. How much you make? You see pal, that's who I am, and you're nothing. Nice guy? I don't give a s***. Good father? F*** you! Go home and play with your kids. You wanna work here - close! You think this is abuse? You think this is abuse, you c********r? You can't take this, how can you take the abuse you get on a sit? You don't like it, leave.

The correct term is “apostate”. There is nothing hated more by liberals....than former liberals...

One of the ties that bind Liberals and Islam. Their view of apostates.
