Movie quotes

  • (..) You don't say ''affirmative'' or some shit like that. You say ''No problemo''. If someone comes up to you with an attitude, you say ''Eat me''. And if you want to shine them on. it's ''Hasta la vista, baby''. Hasta la vista, baby. Or ''Later, dickwad''. If someone gets upset you say ''Chill out''. (..)
