What if "she wrote" ...
You shall be known among us as Usul, the base of the pillar. This is your secret name, your troop name. Now, what name of manhood do you choose for us to call you openly?" Stigar asked.
"How do you call among you the dung beetle, the beetle that consumes dung?"
"We call that one Manc."
"How do you call among you the little shitsu, the dog that eats vomit?"
"We call that one Ray."
"Hmmmm" murmured Paul.
"I wish to be known among the troop as Manc the dung beetle," said Paul, "I don't like Usul, sounds too jerky."
Shocked silence.
"Among the other folks you should refer to me as 'Ray, the shitsu' or maybe "Ray, the shitzu," said Paul.

Blatant mischaracterization. Manc does not consume the dung - he enhances it for everyone to enjoy.

here's one for yas, this ALWAYS sends shivers down my spine... and no.. that doesn't mean I want manc sending anything down my spine :scared:
Col. Jessep: You want answers?
Kaffee: I think I'm entitled.
Col. Jessep: You want answers?
Kaffee: I want the truth.
Col. Jessep: You can't handle the truth.
Col. Jessep: Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinburg? I have more responsibility here than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And that my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. I know deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you don't want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then question the manner in which I provide it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand to post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Humphrey Bogart (speaks to NCP): ... where I'm going, you can't follow. What I've got to do, you can't be any part of. I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy cosmos. Someday you'll understand that. Now ... Here's looking at you kid.
Humphrey Bogart (to Ray): I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Ray (to Bogart): Now be nice Humphrey, go with the flow.
NCP (to Ray): WHAT!
Manc (to NCP and Ray): Bogart’s right.
Manc (mutters to himself): NCP and Ray, who would have thought it.
NCP (to Ray): I would never leave you.
Ray (to NCP): But my wife will shoot me, shoot us both, she can shoot better then me … and with bigger bullets.
NCP (to Ray): Sighs
NCP (to Ray): Oh Ray.
NCP and Ray kiss tenderly and walk off into the sunset … movie ends.
Epilogue: Fatbrit stumbles onto the set and screams, "I'm still trying to work it out..."

Some people are saying you have an attraction to me.. Do you have such tendencies...
I have nothing to do with National Car Parks (NCP) although I do believe I used them a few times ..
