Thanks Noel Coward!

Thanks to Noel Coward, I have increased my vocabulary by two words to use when arguing with a woman and trying to insult her. Slattern and fishwife. Brilliant! 

Not often do I have to pause my DVR to look up a word used in a film. Both were used in one scene, too.

I did the same but, unlike you, I don't plan to slip them into any disagreements

Woman, man! That's the way it should be Tarzan. [Tarzan and his mate]
