Assume 'exit pursued by a bear' we all agree on. So pick something else.

Mine -- after being a snot-nosed brat to his mom for a few lines, Macduff's young son mouths off to Macbeth's hired killers, resulting in:

First Murderer:
What, you egg!
Stabbing him
Young fry of treachery!

This being Shakespeare, said egg whines a bit more before noisily expiring.

Beatrice: I shall lessen God’s sending that way, for it is said God sends a curst cow short horns, but to a cow too curst he sends none.

Leonato: So, by being too curst, God will send you no horns.

Beatrice: Just, if he send me no husband, for the which blessing I am at him upon my knees every morning and evening.

from Shakespeare's Malice:

Jed: I have an M.D. from Harvard, I am board certified in cardio-thoracic medicine and trauma surgery, I have been awarded citations from seven different medical boards in New England, and I am never, ever sick at sea. So I ask you; when someone goes into that chapel and they fall on their knees and they pray to God that their wife doesn't miscarry or that their daughter doesn't bleed to death or that their mother doesn't suffer acute neural trauma from postoperative shock, who do you think they're praying to? Now, go ahead and read your Bible, Dennis, and you go to your church, and, with any luck, you might win the annual raffle, but if you're looking for God, he was in operating room number two on November 17, and he doesn't like to be second guessed. You ask me if I have a God complex. Let me tell you something: I am God.

Rather, um, best flirty response to unwanted advances.

Giving God a BJ! Is that possible?

I would hope that it pays a lot - more than hourly, maybe eternally?

Seems like there must be a Pasolini scene involving that.

Sorry, Ned. I didn't really honor the "random lines/situation" part.
I'm bored and sort of drunk, so...
yup. I bite my nose at you.

I was thinking it was a double entendre until I realized which play/character it was!

Curt1s Stephens, Friday, 6 April 2007 06:08 (eighteen years ago)

I was gonna say, Curtis...
