Let me tell you something, my 2 fine bedfellows! You're so dumb, there's nothing to compare you with! You're dumber than the dumbest jackass! Look at each other, will you? You ever see anything like yourself for being dumb specimens? Ha ha ha ha...!

Ah, I think I'll go to sleep and dream about piles of gold getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
