Daily Dialogue — March 21, 2017

RAY: Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by dick-less here.
PECK: They caused an explosion!
MAYOR: Is this true?
PETER: Yes, it’s true. [nods at Peck] This man has no dick.

PECK lunges at PETER. Police try to break up fight.

POLICE SERGEANT: Break it up, break it up!
PETER: Well, that’s what I heard!

— Ghostbusters (1984), written by Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis

The Daily Dialogue theme this week: Insult. Today’s suggestion by Clay Williams.

Trivia: William Atherton, who has played a number of iconic a-holes on screen, said after this movie came out people would try to pick fights with him at bars.

Dialogue On Dialogue: The scene sets up a slow pitch over the heart of the plate and Bill Murray’s swats it out of the park with is delivery. Of course, it helps that the insult involves impugning a man’s cockmanship. You can never go wrong with that.
