(Overhead in conversation, November 1998)
"Hey, you gonna let your girlfriend talk like that?"
Yeah, I'm gonna let my girlfriend talk like that.
In fact, I'm gonna let my girlfriend do
whatever the hell she wants to do.
You know why?
Because
my girlfriend is a human being
and not an object to own
which is why she's dating me
and she's not dating you.
Now why don't you get the fuck outta here?
And if you don't,
my girlfriend's going to get up
and kick your fuckin' ass.
