6->'''Roxy''': Who're killin' next? Do you take requests? Because I was thinking maybe some [[Creator/KimKardashian Kardashians]], my gym coach, people who give high fives -- really, ''any'' jock -- [[{{Film/Twilight}} Twihards]], people who talk about punk rock. (Who else really rips my cock off?)\
7'''Frank''': Get off the bed!\
8'''Roxy''': Oh, Mormons and other religious assholes who won't let gay people be married. And adult women who call their tits 'the girls'.

14->''"You know what I noticed? Nobody panics when things go according to plan. Even if the plan is horrifying. If tomorrow I told the press that, like, a gang-banger would get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics. Because it's all part of the plan. But when I say that one little old mayor will die, well then everyone loses their minds!"''

19->As some day it may happen that a victim must be found\
20I've got a little list — I've got a little list\
21Of society offenders who might well be underground\
22And who never would be missed — who never would be missed!\
23There's the pestilential nuisances who write for autographs,\
24All people who have flabby hands and irritating laughs\
25All children who are up in dates, and floor you with 'em flat\
26All persons who in shaking hands, shake hands with you like that.\
27And all third persons who on spoiling tête-á-têtes insist,\
28They'd none of 'em be missed — they'd none of 'em be missed.\
29There's the banjo serenader, and the others of his race\
30And the piano-organist — I've got him on the list!\
31And the people who eat peppermint and puff it in your face\
32They never would be missed — they never would be missed!\
33Then the idiot who praises, with enthusiastic tone\
34All centuries but this, and every country but his own;\
35And the lady from the provinces, who dresses like a guy\
36And who "doesn't think she dances, but would rather like to try";\
37And that singular anomaly, the lady novelist\
38I don't think she'd be missed — I'm sure she'd not he missed!\
39And that Nisi Prius nuisance, who just now is rather rife\
40The Judicial humorist — I've got him on the list!\
41All funny fellows, comic men, and clowns of private life\
42They'd none of 'em be missed — they'd none of 'em be missed\
43And apologetic statesmen of a compromising kind\
44Such as — What d'ye call him — Thing'em-bob, and likewise — Never-mind\
45And Tut-tut-tut and What's-his-name, and also You-know-who\
46The task of filling up the blanks I'd rather leave to you\
47But it really doesn't matter whom you put upon the list\
48For they'd none of 'em be missed — they'd none of 'em be missed!

53->''[[VideoGame/WolfensteinTheNewOrder New Order]] has some surprisingly strong story-telling chops. One of the many advantages of Nazis is that you don't have to justify shit. "Hey, this guy's a Nazi, would you like to drown him in his own piss?" the game might ask. "Sorry, did you say something? I was busy drowning a Nazi in his own piss," we might reply. But despite that, New Order puts the effort into making hating Nazis feel fresh again. One of the first things we do is watch a soldier shoot a room full of hospital patients before we stab him right up the lebensraum, and the principal villains only need to smile and play card games to become infinitely hateable.''

61->''"Perivale feels like [[StepfordSuburbia a real late eighties British suburb]]....It’s a nice touch – if a little on the nose – that the predatory teenager changes out of his working class clothes and into a yuppie’s business suit. He even wears sunglasses to conceal his cheetah eyes, and talks in yuppie clichés."''

64->''"Brought to the brink of extinction, [[[Series/DoctorWho the Daleks]]] have been forced to resurrect themselves from the 'dregs'... which seems to be synonymous with the contestants who lose game shows. The Daleks take the people who get knocked out before the finale. Because the Daleks have become TV producers. They've become the people who run ''Big Brother'' and ''Trinny & Susannah'' and ''The Weakest Link''. They've become the bosses of reality TV. They've become Simon Cowell. (Which [[EvenEvilHasStandards is kind of an insult]] [[InsultToRocks to the Daleks]], if you ask me.)"''

67->''"When you pay $1,239 (which is [[CrackIsCheaper the average price of a NYC theater ticket]] nowadays) to see a show, the last thing you want to deal with is rude audience members who don’t know how to act right and ruin your theater-going experience. Some messes still don’t get it and shit has gotten so crazy that an {{attention whore}} wreck recently got on stage during a performance of the Broadway play ''Hand to God'' and tried to plug his phone into a fake outlet. Well, if Broadway star and [[Series/LifeGoesOn Corky’s mom]] Patti [=LuPone=] was in that show and was on stage at the time, he would’ve gone home without his phone… because it would have still been attached to the hand she ripped off."''

76->''"Oh my, I guess Mark Trail [[SaveTheVillain rescuing his antagonists from fiery car crashes]] to show his dominance over them is a story element of the past! Under ''ComicStrip/MarkTrail''[='=]s new management, Mark pulls you from a fiery car crash to show his magnanimity, rushes you to a hospital... and then you die, from your animal-poaching sins... I deem this a tough but fair punishment of an unpleasant fictional character for rhino-murder.\
77I would have very much enjoyed hearing this doctor explain to Mark and Lori exactly why Chris died. ''"His injuries didn't seem life-threatening at first, but despite our best efforts his wounds became infected almost immediately. It's as if no matter how much we cleaned him, he was always... ''dirty''."''
