Actually My Favorite May Not Be The Best On The List

This list (here) from Arika Okrent found on the Mental Floss website from April 5th, 2013 shows all of the lines for harsh, not made for television movies, sanitized to be shown to the masses.

Does it have anything to do with writing? Maybe not directly, but it does have a lot to do with poor writing. Seriously, no one could think of anything better for Walter to say when he says, "This is what happens Larry when you fuck a stranger in the ass" than:



Then, since he's ranting as he says it, the writer gets a second chance and tries "do you see what happens when
you fix a stranger scrambled eggs?"

What's disturbing is that as much as I like this one, for the absurdity of it, for who is saying it, and for the movie itself, it's maybe not quite as funny as the one for Snakes on a Plane.
