It's Like, You Know...

Arthur: I can't believe everyone in L.A. loves my book. I swear, I don't see a point of living in a city where you can't offend people.

Jennifer: Make love? I hate that expression!

Robbie: Maybe she had a way with you while you were sleeping. Arthur: Like a succubus. Robbie & Shrug: A what? Arthur: Succubus. It's like a she-devil. It's a mythological female creature who has sex with men in their sleep and gradually robs them of their soul. Shrug: How long are you gonna be in town this time?

Robbie: (Anna Kurnikova is playing a match) If this match goes to a third set, she will be drenched in sweat, causing her tennis outfit to cleam, cleam to her body in a way that will empty your brain of all human experience leaving you to live out your days babbling cohereantly.

Robbie: She's the ultimate goddess of women's tennis. Shrug: What's her name again? Robbie: Anna Kurnikova. Shrug: What's my name again?

Dawn: I get your soul, and in return I give you something. Shrug: Uh, what do other guys usually exchange their souls for? Dawn: Money? Shrug: Don't need it. Dawn: Power? Shrug: Couldn't handle it. Dawn: Fame? Shrug: Not my cup of tea. Dawn: Personal fulfillment? Shrug: What the hell is that?

Shrug: Arthur, you're right, she's a scuttlebutt!

Lauren: At its best, Arthur's book underscores the irony of how LA, which has produced so much of American culture, lacks any real culture of its own.

Lauren: I think the master stroke of Arthur's book lies in how he captured the soul of an essentially souless city. Arthur: Wow, that's what I did. I didn't know that's what I did, but that's what I did.

Shrug: I'm gonna look up this shufflebutt on the internet.

Shrug: Oh my God, maybe she is a shuttlebus. Arthur: It's succubus, and it's a myth.

Arthur: Are you sure you didn't have sex? Shrug: Arthur, I was there the whole time.

Arthur: I don't see the point of living in a city where you can't even offend people.

Arthur: Why would Dawn lie? Lauren: Oh, so you just assume Dawn's lying? Arthur: Well, if someone's lying about sex it's always the person who says there was sex. Nobody ever lies and says there was no sex. Lauren: Are you familiar with the leader of the free world?
