• Practically every scene Walt disses on someone. One of the best:

Walt: You're wrong, eggroll, I know exactly what I'm talking about. I may not be the most pleasant person to be around, but I got the best woman who was ever on this planet to marry me. I worked at it, it was the best thing ever happened to me. Hands down. But you, you know, you're letting Click-Clack, Ding-Dong and Charlie Chan, just walk out with Miss What's-her-face. She likes you, you know? Though I don't know why! Thao: You mean Youa? Walt: Yeah... Yum Yum... yeah... nice girl... nice girl, very charming girl... I talked with her... yeah. But you, you just let her walk out right out with the Three Stooges. And you know why? 'Cause you're a big fat pussy. Well, I gotta go. Good day, pussycake.

• Thao tries to talk like a man and gets a gun pointed at his head for his troubles. The following scene where he puts this training to use counts too.
  • Thao then going back with advice on complaining about job, girlfriend, car etc. Thao stumbles confusedly (or sarcastically) through it all, culminating with

Thao:"My ass hurts from all the guys on my construction job."

• • What about the joke Walt told early on in the film?

Walt: Oh, I've got one. A Mexican, a Jew, and a colored guy go into a bar. The bartender looks up and says, "Get the fuck out of here."

• • What, nobody mentioned this gem?

Walt: I'd like to have confession. Father Janovich: Jesus Christ, what have you done?

• • Sue's pathetic attempt at a Tactful Translation, given that her grandmother is clearly furious at the sight of Walt in her home.
  • The scene where Spider's gang deals with the Mexican gang messing with Thao. One of the Mexicans takes out a small revolver, but then one of Spider's guys takes out an uzi.
