What about Huxtable Flangemop?

John Finnemore said...

I thought we had agreed never to mention him ever again. All the Flangemops are rotten to the core, but Huxtable... he's pure evil.

Calista: Suggesting calluses and blisters

Flockhart: Suggesting flog, pick and pluck your heart.

Calista Flockhart: The callused, blistered one who comes to flog and pluck your heart.

And one whose legal decisions are on occasion seriously compromised by personal concerns.

Ah! It is absolutely delightful to find this here, genuinely. For over 10 years now I've collected little bits and pieces of dialog that I had with friends about things I thought were funny or interesting, and I put them into my work now. Of course it makes perfect sense to do it, but to see someone I admire so deeply doing it as well cheers me up in my own endeavors. You’re made of wonderful! Please keep creating forever!! *cheer*
