Saying no to the whole concept of kidnapping
“Did you kidnap this girl?”
“No!”
“You didn’t even look at the picture!”
“I’m not saying no to the girl, I’m saying no to the whole concept of kidnapping!”
Paraphrased from “Magnum P.I. (2018)”
He says
A: I don’t know if he’s insisting, pontificating, or stipulating. Maybe I should use all three with slashes in between?

B: Then he “says.”

Actor Name

Only Idiots
If you design a program to be so easy even an idiot can use it… idiots will use it… and if you’re aggressive enough with that design choice, finally only idiots will be able to use it.
Wry Grins Kill People
A: But don’t you need a gun, though, if you want to shoot someone?

A: With wry grins?
B: Ehhh…exactly…
There’s always a choice

B: “Yes?”
A: “I don’t see any surgery experience.”
B: “Huh? Surgery?!”
A: “Yes, this is a medical drama after all…”
B: “Yeah, but… surgery?”
A: “We can’t have people cut into each other willy-nilly…”

A: “Hm. We do have some spots for patients though…”
B: “Eh, yeah, I’m not sure…”
A: “We’re shooting a scene right now… you could make a quick buck…”
B: “Touch me and I scream!”
A: “It won’t be many people around hearing that anyway…”
B: “I’ll call 911! I’ve got mace!”
A: “Ok! Ok! Listen… I usually don’t say this… but you and me…”
B: “Yes?”
A: “I don’t really see the chemistry…”
B: “I know, right? Like… poof nothing! Why is that? You know, like, some people… like… void…”
A: “Hm, yes. You know what… leave your contact information when you leave and we’ll see if we’ll get back to you…”
B: “Thank God! Yes! Bye!”
