Yeah I agree the's no way they're true.

    Do you know of anyone who will continue a vitriolic discussion over email twelve layers deep? Over nothing?

You should meet my younger brothe- Actually you shouldn't, because it will probably end in his death. he's the only person I know who could argue with someone until they give up or one of them enters a coma.

And

    You know how sometimes you come up with the perfect comeback two hours later, in the shower, when it's too late to say anything?
is brilliant, can I steal it?

It isn't mine to give. As humanodon points out, Diderot beat everyone to the punch. I learned it from Terry Rossio, who said that movie dialog shouldn't sound like real life, it should sound like real life if you actually said all those clever things you wished you'd said when you're standing in the shower two hours later.
