But for Me It Was Tuesday/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Chun-Li: It was twenty years ago. You hadn't promoted yourself to general yet. You were just a petty drug lord. You and your gang of murderers gathered your small ounce of courage to raid across the border for food, weapons, slave labor...my father was the village magistrate. A simple man with a simple code: justice. He gathered the few people that he could to stand against you. You and your bullies were driven back by farmers with pitchforks! My father saved his village at the cost of his own life. You had him shot as you ran away! A hero... at a thousand paces.
M. Bison: I'm sorry... I don't remember any of it.
Chun-Li: You don't remember?!
M. Bison: For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me... it was Tuesday.

Sarda: That is a child who watched you slaughter his parents.
Black Mage: Gonna have to be more specific.
Sarda: After you broke his mind with a glimpse into the dread lattice of black magic, you killed his foster family. Then his other foster family. Then you destroyed his orphanage.
Black Mage: Like, was this recently? Last week? Month? Help a guy out, will ya'?

Roy: Gah! It was forty years ago!
Xykon: More specific.
Roy: In the Spring?
Xykon: More specific.
Roy: On a Wednesday?
Xykon: Oh! Right! Now, I remember.
Xykon: Because it was laundry night and I had trouble getting the blood out of my robes.
Roy: Oh, that is IT!!

"Hey, wait a second. I know who you are now! You're that guy! The one who kept getting pissed off at me for not remembering... something."

Roy: What about the dozens of civilians you killed to lure [the police] there?

Thog: actually, thog hazy on that. did thog kill them off-panel?

Roy: "Hazy"?? Bad news for you, then. Bad guys not remembering their evil deeds is something of a pet peeve of mine.

Buttercup: You killed my love.
Dread Pirate Roberts: It's possible. I kill a lot of people.

Blight: Who are you?
Batman: ...You really want to know?
Blight: Yes!
Batman: [dramatically enters the scene] You killed my father.
Blight: ...Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?!

Ashnard: Annoying little insect. Whose path is it that you think to block?
Jill: ...My father died because of you. He tried so hard...to prove he was a loyal citizen of Daein. And you never recognized his efforts. Not even once.
Ashnard: Are you complaining to me? Come back some other time. I'm busy.
Jill: Answer me! My father was General Shiharam! Why did he have to die?
Ashnard: Eh? Who are you talking about? The name is unfamiliar... I don't think we ever had such a general.
Jill: What?
Ashnard: This is a waste of time. Leave my sight at once.
Jill: ...Ashnard... Ashnard!! ASHNARD!! I...will never forgive you! NEVER!!!

Arc: You're the one that killed my father!

I've been angry for years. I had it all planned out. What I would say when I finally ran into him. It would have been better if he remembered.

Tallis: The Montfort family inherited this mountain from a clan of Nevarran dragon-hunters. Well, maybe inherited is the wrong word. What do you call it when you kill someone in order to get all their stuff?

You shall rue the day you met me, my friend. If indeed you even remember who I am.

Maddie: (learning London has planned to hold her own sweet-sixteen party on Maddie's sixteenth birthday) This isn't fair! Your birthday was six months ago!
London: So? I can have my party whenever I want.

London: Tuesday.

Discord: You've managed to more than make up for me, ahem, accidentally wiping out the Hippocampi, Flutterponies, and most of your kind. I was so -sure- I turned that desert back into an ocean! I guess my game of pony-card-solitaire ran long. Too bad, I really did enjoy their singing. Oh well, you win some, you reduce the six pony races to three point two. Oh well... Where was I?

Scourge: Now I shall get my revenge!
Tigerstar: Wait, revenge for what?
Scourge: What!? You savagely assaulted me when I was a kit! You are partially responsible for making me the bloodthirsty psychopath I am today!
Tigerstar: I don't even know who you are. Do you honestly expect me to keep track of every single kit I've beaten to within an inch of its life?
Scourge: Grrr...

Zeppelli: Bastard...How many lives have you devoured to heal those wounds?
Dio: Do you remember every piece of bread you've ever eaten?

Superman: That's for Dan Turpin.
Darkseid: Who?
Superman: The good man you murdered.
Darkseid: Had I known one human's death would pain you so, I would have killed more. And kill more I shall, carry that agony with you into oblivion Superman.

You insensitive prick! You killed him and you don't even remember!

Kagura: Yo! Guess we're in the same class now! You know, I've been wanting to have a proper chat with you for some time. I've heard people say we have a lot in common. Not that we need anyone to tell us, I'm sure you feel it too.
Sakaki: [blank stare]
Kagura: Huh? Don't tell me... you don't remember me?
Sakaki: [nod]
Kagura: I... I see... Come on! We competed in the sports fest, the marathon and that other game we played. You know, the one with the ball. Don't you remember?
Sakaki: [blank stare]
Kagura: You don't remember? You really don't remember?
Sakaki: [nod]
Kagura: ...WELL, ANYWAYS, WE'RE RIVALS! I'LL BE SEEIN' YA!
