Lily: A string? That string would probably reach all the way up to the North if you let it. The Master already has his hands full with Her Holiness. I'm sure he could handle a few more.

So kind of you to bless us with your effortlessness
We're grateful and so strangely comforted
And I wonder, are you putting us under?
Cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination
Well, see you later, innovator

Jeff Goldblum has stuck it in nearly every famous ho in Hollywood (every SAG-AFTRA membership card comes with a Polaroid of his penis with the words “Call me” written on the back) so I’m shocked that he’s chosen to settle down. Something is very wrong here. Jeff Goldblum is supposed to be out every night cruising random hipster bars for 20-something models and trying to lure them back to his bachelor pad by asking them in that smooth panty-dropping voice of his if they’d like to see the grey underwear he wore in The Fly. It’s too early for a slut like Jeff Goldblum to hang a “SORRY, DICK CLOSED” sign on his junk.
"You guys are just jealous because every chick on the show wanted to be my girlfriend while you chumps had to settle for fan speculation over my sister!
— Sokka to Aang and Zuko, Avatar: The Last Puppet Bender
"You should also know that Benedict Cumberbatch isn't a man. He's a situation that me and most of my friends are all having."
