thanks, lee

That guy who tries to top a joke that's already been made.

Lee doesn't get the comedy pyramid. There's set up, rising action, punchline. Lee keeps going after the joke's been made. Thanks, Lee.

I would stand in line for this

Anything that means everything to you for any reason.

A chance to tell my first girlfriend I know what I'm doing now? I would stand in line for this.

explanation is joke murder

If you have to explain it; it's not that funny.

I'm not going to tell you why Sam is like a broken stoplight. Explanation is joke murder.

Well, I'm a writer.

Said ruefully when no one gets the joke.

No one understands that Shakespeare is just Edwardian Cinemax? Well, I'm a writer.

Three. Words. Here.

Like an action movie poster, the generic marketing convention that adds excitement to any endeavor.

We have to blow the client away. We need Three. Words. Here.
