I guess I shouldn't be so subtle in my Red Dwarf quotes --
- Rimmer:
- What on Titan is this din?
- Lister:
- It's
Rastabilly-Ska. Rasta Billy Skank
- Rimmer:
- {looks at CD}
- Is this it? It's got a health warning on it, you know. It's bad for you.
- Lister:
- It's a classic.
- Rimmer:
- {reads from CD} Danger. Government Health Warning. This music can make you irritable and irrational and has been linked to disorders of the nervous system and bowels.
- Lister:
- Rimmer, no one takes any notice of that stuff.
- Rimmer:
- Lister, if you want to dice with death, fine, but don't poison my sound waves. Off!
- {music stops}
- Rimmer:
- Why don't you listen to something really classical, like Mozart, Mendelssohn, or Motörhead?
(Red Dwarf, Season 1, Episode 3, "Balance of Power")
Update: I've checked the subtitles on the DVD, and adjusted the spelling. (of course, Rimmer clearly said in the next bit 'She used to look down on me -- she used to call me 'Rimmer'', and the subtitles said 'She looked down on me, called me 'Rimmer'' ('Rimmer'. 'Rimmer', to rhyme with 'scum'.) so I don't know if they're really authoritative

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
