Lucky Moron: You know something that has been pissing me off for a long time?
Otis Redwing: I know lots of things that have been pissing you off for a long time. Is this something new?
Lucky: Look, I know this isn't popular to say, but I'm tired of all this, 'They were the nicest people you'd ever meet' memorials when people get killed in mass shootings.
Otis: Lucky! You really gonna go there?
Lucky: It's ALL THE TIME! The victims are ALWAYS called "the nicest people."
Otis: It's about respect, my friend.
Lucky: I know! I know! But it's also about the news trying to bring out the sympathy tears. They're digging these poor families to plaster the stories of their dead relatives. Just ONCE I'd like to hear a story about the victim being a total asshole, but who didn't deserve to die like that anyway.
Otis: Fine. Make you a deal. You ever get killed in a mass shooting, that's what I'll tell the news. "Lucky Moran was a total dick but he didn't deserve to go out like that."
Lucky: Thanks, man. You are a true friend.
