Saul: Yes, Timmy, it seems that we need to rename the barbara Streisand effect since she was trying so hard to have the last laugh, she has allowed hate to grow in the shadows and become a monster now, the Barbaric Streisand Effect.

Timmy: TIMMAAAAAH!!!
Saul: Just another example of cyberphunkisms
