"A census taker tried to quantify me once." damookster Send a noteboard - 23/10/2017 03:09:06 PM

"I ate his liver with some fava beans and a big Amarone."

So much better than the pathetic, dumbed-down substitute used in the movie. I hate it when movie makers take a line directly from the source novel and then rewrite it to make it more understandable or accessible for the uneducated masses. This is one of the more egregious examples. Does anyone else have one that particularly offends or aggravates them?
