Michael: Look, I don’t want your forgiveness, Dad. I want the guy with the one arm and the fake blood. J. Walter Weatherman. How do I get a hold of him?
George, Sr.: Well, he’s, uh, dead. You killed him when you left the door open with the air conditioner on.
Michael: Your Uncle G.O.B. seems to think that he saw you down at the docks today. Was that you?
George Michael: No. No. Maybe it was the other George Michael. You know, the singer-songwriter.
Michael: Yeah, that makes sense.

Agreed...most skyscrapers look like....skyscrapers!

Hi I’m new and I think I noticed a little "visual" joke that’s hard to get. In the first scene, before Buster explains that he’s referring to "it as our nausea", the narrator says :
Narrator: Buster’s girlfriend Lucille Austero, suffers from chronic vertigo, which she has been trying to fight without the use of medication.
You can see Lucille 2 stumbling and keeling over in her hallway ... which is decorated in a "boat cabin" style.
So it seems like she’s being thrown around in a storm at sea : vertigo = balance disorder + nausea.
The scene even ends with Lucille 2 steadying herself by grabbing a boat wheel hung on the wall.
Did anybody else notice that ?

I thought Buster said "[spoiler]shitting[/spoiler] around" too, though my friend has added he might also be saying "[spoiler]screwing[/spoiler] around." Either way, I agree with you that that’s just Buster’s way. "Like anyone would want to ’R’ her."
i actually think he means "eff-ing" around, but uses the wrong letter because he’s buster.
#94 Bear wrote on May 31, 2007:
Yep that’s pretty much what I thought too : "I am not eff-ing around" as pronounced by Buster.
#95 Ripe for Parody wrote on June 01, 2007:
I thought he meant "ess-ing" as "screwing" because Buster doesn’t curse much. Remember how he laughed when the site foreman told him to take his head out of his "bottom"? 
It just makes sense that he would think "screwing" was an obscenity.
#96 Bear wrote on June 07, 2007:
Yep you may as well be right. Buster is easily shocked by swearing :
« Older postsGeorges Sr : You were just a turd.
Buster : Prison has destroyed the way you talk. If that’s what it takes to impress these guys around here, then they are not your friends.
