Fucking, Wolverine.

Such a phrase should only be used when you cannot remember what you were originally talking about, and need time to think. Instead of saying "Ummm" or "Errr", you would say "Fucking..." Followed, after a slight pause, by "...Wolverine."
Phillip, to Ben; "Dude, I just had a thought! You look like Fucking, Wolverine."

Ben; "What?"

Phillip; "Fucking, that pirate guy from that film, you know the one."
Standing at 5'3" and weighing in just over 250+ lbs, he is considered the "best there is at what he does," which, of course, is fighting. Armed with animal keen senses (i.e.: hyper keen scent tracking, enhanced hearing and sight), an unbrakable, laced-with-adamantium skeleton, a set of razor-sharp claws, enhanced strength (due to the bodily adaptation to carrying all the extra weight provided by the metal in his body), and an enhanced healing factor, he is considered to be one of the deadliest mutants of the x-universe.
