They are just a couple of little boys who think crass is
cool. If only they could really hear themselves . . .

Real men know that a truly effective insult must
be a subtle one that is based on actuality.

Absolutely correct. Who told you?

I trust that you appreciated how fortunate you were to benefit from such a
fine education.

Have you considered a trip to Ireland?

I should dearly like to visit a genuine Irish pub and ask for
a pint . . .

I think you should ask for a beer by name, not a pint. The pint is
assumed if you are a man.

But Pippin asked for a pint. "Pint? It comes in pints?"

Pippin is supposed to be a Hobbit which is not a man. The actor is
hardly a man either.
