Larry: [Auntie Rae] went over the appropriate amount of time that I can have human contact without getting aroused. I only have five seconds. After that, it's out of my control.
Jeff: Not me. I've got discipline down there. I have a very discerning penis—very discerning.
Larry: My penis is an animal.
Jeff: Really? Just out of control. It's wild.
Larry: It's a feral tiger, yeah. (edit) Leon: Goddamn, Larry, what the fuck, man? You hug my auntie, man, you stab her in the stomach? (edit) Larry: This guy is on his cell phone. He's talkin' to his friend and he's upset and he's complaining, you know, he had to move some furniture, and he says to his friend, "I hurt my hand because I had to take the top because of this 300-pound nigger who was..."
Black Doctor: What did you say? What did you just say?!
Larry: (flustered)
Black Doctor: What did you just fix your mouth to say?!
Larry: No, no...
Black Doctor: You just used the most vile word in the English language! How dare you?!
Larry: No, I was...
Black Doctor: How dare—in front of me! You are despicable! I can't stand people like you, you bald son-of-a-bitch! (edit) Auntie Rae: (to Larry) First you gonna be rubbin' all up against me, then whackin' off in the damn car, and now you gonna call me a nigger?! (edit) Black Pharmacist: (reading Sheila's note to Larry) "Larry—Had a great time last night. Would love to get together Friday night at the Bel Air Regency Hotel, just the two of us." Um, "So tired of all these sisters and brothers around. I know you feel the same way. Tell me your life wouldn't be better without the Blacks." (edit)
