quote
I happen to hate New Year’s celebrations. Everybody desperate to have fun. Trying to celebrate in some pathetic little way. Celebrate what? A step closer to the grave? That’s why I can’t say enough times, whatever love you can get and give, whatever happiness you can filch or provide, every temporary measure of grace, whatever works. And don’t kid yourself. Because its by no means up to your own human ingenuity. A bigger part of your existence is luck, than you’d like to admit. Christ, you know the odds of your fathers one sperm from the billions, finding the single egg that made you. Don’t think about it, you’ll have a panic attack.
— Boris Yellnikoff (Larry David), Whatever Works

photo My favorite part of 40 Year Old Virgin. It’s what would be considered “a nigga moment” on The Boondocks.

Only my third favorite exchange from "The 40 Year Old Virgin"

  • David: Hey, Paula.
  • Paula: Yeah?
  • David: I gotta tell you something. I'm really excited about it. Uh, for the first time today, I woke up, I came to the store, and I feel confident to say to you that if you don't take this Michael McDonald DVD that you've been playing for two years straight off, I'm going to kill everyone in the store and put a bullet in my brain.
  • Paula: David, what do you suggest we play?
  • David: I don't care. Anything. I would rather... I would rather watch "Beautician and the Beast". I would rather listen to Fran Drescher for eight hours than have to listen to Michael McDonald. Nothing against him, but if I hear "Yah Mo B There" one more time, I'm going to "Yah Mo" burn this place to the ground.
  • Paula: You're such a smartass. Get back on the floor.
  • [Paula walks away]
  • David: [cough-mutters] Ah-fuck you!
