“Remember before you had your first e-mail address or your first cellphone,” he said. “Don’t you think that your food tasted better back then?”
Not really. I can afford better food now.
Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Mr. Kest calls himself a “selectarian,” one who chooses everything he eats.
...As opposed to those of us who are force-fed our entire diet?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
In an example of how yogis have adopted the language and ideology of foodies, Mr. Kest calls himself a “selectarian,” one who chooses everything he eats.
As opposed to the rest of us who just reach out blindly and eat whatever we wind up grabbing?

Maybe he thinks that non-selectarians don't really think about the food we eat. We have false food-consciousness.

I didn't get my first e-mail address until college, and frankly, I think I have better taste in food now.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Easy now. Remember that "don't ask, don't tell" was very much a step in the right direction, because witchhunts were very common at the time.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
