Yeah, lady. He's not responsible.

Here's the thing, Fonda: there are certain words -- like"dipshit" -- that no one says better than you. You have a knack for making even the lowest of the low (for example, "poo" and "grout," monosyllables both) sound like money, all drawled out and elegant. Seriously, if I could bottle said knack, I'd sell it out of the trunk of my car on the midway during the NASCAR races.
