* In ''[[Money Train]]'', Wesley Snipes' and Woody Harrelson's characters get chewed out by their [[Bad Boss|unhealthily aggressive supervisor]] for misconduct. Patterson (the supervisor) claims that if they screw up again, he's going to "fuck them dead". W & W then discuss and try to figure out if he meant fucking them before, or after they're dead. They come to the conclusion that "[[A Worldwide Punomenon|Either way it's a pain in the ass]]". Later in the film, Wesley makes a point that they need to stay one step ahead of "That necrophiliac Patterson". |
