2. My friends call me Alice, and I will take a dare!

3. Hey, Vera. We've got another stiff in the john.

HINT: fuller speech:
God, I hate that woman!

And I hate that little sound she makes when she sleeps.
And I hate her filthy little sh!tbag dog, Muffy.

nope. That probably wasn't a very distinguishing quote, was it? What if I said it was the first spoken line in the movie, IIRC?

According to IMDB, which I just checked, the line is actually "Today is a good day to die". Mea culpa.
