They’re either married or gay. And if they’re not gay, they’ve just broken up with the most wonderful woman in the world, or they’ve just broken up with a bitch who looks exactly like me. They’re in transition from a monogamous relationship and they need more space. Or they’re tired of space, but they just can’t commit. Or they want to commit, but they’re afraid to get close.

-Ah, come on. Nothing’s more important than sex.

At least once every show I try to put something of value in.
Did you have to be in such a good mood?
Friendship is the bread of life…but money is the honey.
Fuck ’em if they can’t take a joke.
I don’t like talking about my past as much as you guys do.
I feel like I got a great break on a used car.

Will you marry me? Both of you?
Wise up folks. We’re all alone out there and tomorrow we’re going out there again.
Yes, you can do that. Tell Carmelina I said it was okay.
You can’t always get what you want.
