M: What about the custard pie routine? W: What do you mean 'custard pie routine'? M: You know, all those old films where someone gets so outraged with his boss, He picks up a custard pie and plasters it all over the other person's face.

It must because of the sort of the thing we'd all love to do once in a while and never quiet have the courage to.
