That kind of a morbid curiousity when you pass a car wreck, you just gotta slow down. When you got a sore in your mouth, you just got to put your tongue to it so you know it hurts. When you got a container of milk that you know is spoiled, you just gotta smell it before you throw it out."

Jim: "Name one!"
Alex: "You lived in a condemmed building for four years."
Jim: "You're confusing flakiness with style!"
