Vic quotes from Queer as Folk (US)

Vic

I was always good at numbers... especially cute one's.

Justin

Well, then, I'll go to New York. I'll become a hustler and I'll sell my body to gross old homos!

Vic

I'll give you 20 bucks. [Debbie smacks Vic] Just saving the train fare.

Justin

I'm gonna throw up, I gotta vomit!

Debbie

Upstairs bathroom. The one for guests and drama queens.

Debbie

It's not a joke, you know. Gay teens have a very high suicide rate.

Michael

Unfortunately, not this one.

Vic

AMC has a Joan Crawford festival all week.

Debbie

Nobody is that gay.

Vic

Promiscuous is anyone having more sex than you.

Emmett

I thought I was being safe... careful.

Vic

Sex isn't careful. If it is you're doing it wrong. It's messy and it's human.

Ted

Well, Brian. You really know how to throw a birthday bash.

Emmett

Too bad all good things must come to an end.

Melanie

Well well well... is anyone surprised? The way he treats people. Am I right? Is there anyone here tonight that hasn't been fucked by Brian Kinney, one way or another?

Vic

Well, what do you know, now Michael has been too.

Debbie

So you finally gave him what he wanted. Good for you.

Lindsay

How could you do that to him, Brian? Your best friend in the whole world.

Justin

No. You're gonna need someone to help you clean up this mess.

Vic

And so are we. Straight to Hell. According to them.

Justin

Doesn't he know that every reputable psychological study done within the past 25 years emphatically states that a person's sexual orientation is determined by the age of six, sometimes before birth, and it's completely unalterable?

Debbie

You tell 'em, Sunshine! A leopard can't change its stripes... and neither can a queer!

Brian

[Gus puked on Brian] All over my favorite leather jacket.

Vic

A fashion critic already.

Emmett

That's just want Mr. Pettigrew said.

Vic

Who?

Emmett

Mr. Pettigrew. High school teacher back home in Hazelhurst. He was accused of exposing himself to one of his students. He swore it wasn't true, that the kid was lying because he flunked him.

Vic

And I suppose you're going to tell me he was beaten to death, or hung himself in his jail cell?

Emmett

No. He went to live with his spinster sister in Meridian. When he died a few years later, they say he put in his will that he didn't want his name on his tombstone. Because it was worthless.

Vic

They put everything on stamps these days... composers, birds, even the Three Stooges. So when are they going to have famous fags?

Debbie

You can be on the 69 cent stamp, honey.

Vic

We faggots are a talented bunch. You gotta hand us that.

Debbie

Indestructible, too.

Vic

I remember my first march. After the Stonewall Riots - in the stone age - there were no more than 25 of us that first year.

Justin

That's all?

Vic

You think coming out's tough now, you should have been around back then.

Debbie

He's not my type.

Vic

He's alive and he's got a dick. What more do you need?

Debbie

To the 'Liberty Balls'!

Vic

Long may they hang!

Ben

I try not to think about it. Some days I even succeed.

Vic

I know what you mean. But then something always happens to remind me. Touch of the flu, someone donating sperm, a lover who dies...

Vic

Not to resort to trite musical theater references at the 11th hour, but I've been through Nixon, Reagan, two Bush's, and I'm still here. And kiddies, if I can survive all that and more, we'll survive this, too.

Justin

[toasts] the abominable spirit of queers everywhere.
