"And people are always pointing at the dish and saying, 'Is that the color my hair is going to be? It's the color of Gwen Stefani's hair.' And I say, 'No, that is the color of cake frosting. Your hair will be a lovely red once this oxidizes, so shut up while I frost you.' Oh, that last part was to them, not to you, dear."

"Hey! You wanna go throw firecrackers at cops?"

"Bullshit!"
--A girl hissing indignantly during the part of Sugar and Spice where the
antagonist claims the cheer squad was doing an illegal dismount from their stunt
