The aforementioned surgery is tomorrow. Wish me luck. Give me a call tomorrow or Thursday if you want to talk to me while I’m doped up on pain meds.
The occasion calls for the following movie quotes. Name the source for jakey-points, redeemable for dry comments or cheap booze. Bonus jakey-points for naming the character. Negative jakey-points for using the internets.
- “Beautiful isn’t it? It took me half a lifetime to invent it. I’m sure you’ve discovered my deep and abiding interest in pain. Presently I’m writing the definitive work on the subject, so I want you to be totally honest with me on how the machine makes you feel. This being our first try, I’ll use the lowest setting.”
- “Remember the game plan. First you win a point, then you lose a point. Keep the score at zero-zero. Pulverize him for the full three minutes. Then in sudden death you get the point, we win. I want him to experience pain. First he suffers.”
- “This bowling ball isn’t human! It doesn’t feel pain! It can’t be reasoned with!”
- “Oh we have a delivery, a special delivery of pain!”
- “You mark that frame an eight and you’re entering a world of pain.”
- “This shit is between me, you, and Mr. Soon-to-be-livin’-the-rest-of-his-short-ass-life-in-agonizing-pain rapist here.
- “Oh stewardess? I speak Jive.”
“Oh, good.”
“He said that he’s in great pain, and he wants to know if you can help him.”
“Alright, would you tell him to just relax and I’ll be back as soon as I can with some medicine.”
“Jes’ hang loose, blood. She gonna catch up on the rebound on the med side.”

Hey man, hope it went well. I want to see an update with cool pictures of your incision.
Anyway, on to collect my jakey-points. I know a few…
The Princess Bride. Can’t think of the character’s name, but it’s the guy played by Christopher Guest.
The Big Lebowski – Walter, played by John Goodman
Pulp Fiction – Marcellus, played by Ving Rhames
Bring on some cheap booze!
