It'll never pass Mustard. 

You don’t need any help from me, sir.

...the brand even has a proven track record, in so far as “We can’t stop quoting Madeline Kahn doing the ‘Flames” bit from the Clue movie every damn day of our lives” constitutes a track record of sorts.

No, this is.

Are you trying to make me look stupid in front of the other guests?

Communism was a red herring.

This is just a red herring.

i’m sure SAG is excited about the opportunity to quickly add thousands of dues paying members.

Imagine being such a douchebag of an extraordinary level, that you actually make me prefer Nate fucking Diaz over you.

I first saw this and immaturely giggled. Then I read on and saw it was supposed to be some kind of statement and was disappointed.
