Joke: ' He wasn't big enough for an appetizer .'
QUOTES:
(1) Lawrence Paros, The Erotic Tongue (1984) about the word yard : ' By 1850 it had become obsolete. Yet the yard lives on in every man's fantasy, though the details of the fantasy clash. We have the old adage, " Short and thick does the trick " (18 th C), as well as Robert Burns's " Nine inch will please a lady " while contemporary folk hyperbole immortalizes the man with a nine-inch pr**k and a twelve-inch tongue who can breathe through his ears . In our world , however, it's the three-inch-fool ( The Taming of the Shrew ) who clearly is the rule .'
(2) Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) and William Thacker (Hugh Grant) in Notting Hill (1999):
-- Anna: ' You have big feet. (...) You know what they say about men with big feet .'
-- William: ' No. What's that? '
-- Anna: ' Big feet... large shoes .'
(3) Dr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) in Batman & Robin (1998): ' No matter what they tell you, Mr. Bain, it is the size of your gun that counts .' Freeze's gun freeze's people.
