Daily Dialogue — July 27, 2019

Marty: I don’t have a drinking problem, I just like drinking.
Billy: Of course you do, Marty. One, you’re a writer. Two, you’re from Ireland. It’s part of your heritage. You’re fucked. 
Marty: Fuck off, Billy. Just seriously fuck off now. I’m not in the fucking mood. 
Billy: You’re fucked from birth. The Spanish got bullfighting. The French got cheese. And the Irish have alcoholism.
Marty: And what do the Americans have?
Billy: Tolerance.
