And I've seen you litter too.
JIMMY SNYDER. I never prank called any retards.
ME. You were adopted.
JIMMY SNYDER. [Searches audience for his parents]
Me. And nobody loves you.
JIMMY SNYDER. [His eyes fill with tears]
Me. And you have amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
JIMMY SNYDER. Huh?" (146)

"'Buckminster is my Pussy.' Jimmy pointed at me and said, 'Ha ha!' The kids cracked up in the bad way. I didn't get what was so hilarious. Mr. Keegan got angry and said, 'Jimmy!' said, 'What? What did I do?' I could tell that inside, Mr. Keegan was cracking up, too." (190)
