My favorite line from that whole show is in that episode:

"My bicycle masters boardwalk and quagmire with aplomb! Those that doubt me? Suck cock by choice"

It's not the BEST line in the show, but the combination of frills+filth is so pitch perfect, to me, that it's the one I love the most.

The way the writing veers between shakespearean and potty mouth is a thing of absolute cocksucking beauty.

A quote I like: When I say, 'Go fuck yourself, Sheriff,' will you put that down to drunkenness or a high estimate of your athleticism?"

Shakespeare was pretty filthy back in the day. Not as bad as Chaucer though.

The best line in the show is;

"He's picklin' his prick in the cunt brine of another."

That line leave my lips at least once every time I have a few drinks. Pure, profane poetry.
