Is this not bargain-basement Boiler Room?

Mushrooms? I'm out. But I'll push them on my geek next time we're out for dim sum.

Hee … I'm teasing, mostly — I have no issues with Hardy in or out of his wheelhouse.

James is a man of few words and the ones he does speak are delivered in—surprise—a gruff manner

Norway … a nation of pirates!

I'm sorry, how much pot?

Have you not seen the Hello Kitty stratocaster? And personal massager?

Stop puttin' me on!
