- Jonah: Steatopygias.
- Cal van Damp: What?
- Jonah: Steatopygias. It means "rump", so whenever a fat-ass walks in the room... well, someone like you... you'd say, "Well, Cal, you're certainly steatopygias". It's better than fat-ass because you and anyone else wouldn't know what the fuck I'm talkin' about.“The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushing.”
